A S, A S Checkmate CM 
 
 
 One 
 
 Run! 
 
   
 The voice in my head yelled, but I couldn't run, I couldn't back down. No ways was I going to show fear, especially from the likes of him. 
   
 "I hate you." I said with gritted teeth 
   
 He grinned and cupped my cheek with his bloody right hand. 
   
 "Awe, little kitten here hates me." He said with a child like voice," Did you here tthat boys?" 
   
 The man around me laughed as I stared at the demon in front of me. 
   
 
 He was the man in black and he had brutally murdered my parents right in front of me. 
 
   
 I clenched my jaw in anger," I will fucking kill you" I said, staring directly at him. 
   
 He smiled then removed his hand from my cheek, leaving blood on it. 
   
 "I will like to see you try." Was the last thing I heard from him then everything was dead silence. 
   
 Just me and my dead parents,  Lying lifeless on the floor. On my mother's favourite baby blue carpet my father bought for her as a gift. 
   
 I bit my lips and digged my nails into my palm. 
   
 "FUCK!" I yelled. 
   
 Just a moment ago we were smiling, having a family dinner. 
   
 I blinked my eyes and stared at the front door. 
   
 I will kill that man,no matter what... 
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
 
 5 months later... 
 
   
 "Listen Marian, you can't arrest someone without evidence." My co-worker said," We have been through this." 
   
 "But, his been doing a lot of shady business." I said 
   
 "But you know who he is, someone we can't take down and I told you that most of the police workers work for him, scratch that,even the government work for him." He explained 
   
 I bit my lip and clenched my fists. 
   
 "Then I will take him down myself." I said 
   
 He shook his head and said," If this is about what he did to your family, you are not going to win. You need alliances." 
   
 " Then I will do it myself." I said," One of us has to die and it's definitely going to be him." 
   
 My co-worker sighed and said," You are still an intern, you lucky I'm one of the good guys or I would have reported you so go back and do your canteen work." 
   
 I groaned and dropped my shoulders. 
   
 His words weren't going to stop me from ripping that man's heart out. 
   
 I don't care if his the man in black, I was going to get my revenge. Even if both of us died. 
   
 I walked out of the office room, every step. Reminding me why I was here. 
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
 I tied my braids in a ponytail and wiped off the sweat that was formed by my workout. 
   
 I stared at my reflection through the mirror and sighed. 
   
 Mom, dad  I'm sorry, I failed you guys. 
   
 I shouldn't have opened that door on that night. I should had ignored it as the two of you told me to. 
   
 
 
 Why don't you kill his family too. 
 
 
   
 The voice in my head suggested then I shook my head. 
   
 No, I won't scoop down to his level. 
   
 It's him I want and no one else.  
   
 He wouldn't see it coming...
