It's a quiet night in the City of Azgul where people are all asleep except for those who are lost and wondering around the darkness of the night. A family woke up in the middle of the night by a loud knock on their front door. They ignore it at first but the person outside their door is persistent. The father groggily gets up and open the door.


"Hey, it's in the middle of the night! You are disturbing not only my family but the neighbors as well." He said when he opens the door.


"Have you seen her?" the stranger asks him.


"Who? Are you looking for someone? Family, friends or lover?"


"Dear who is it?" the wife came out of their room to check on her husband.


"This young lad seems to be looking for---"


"D-dear?"


The wife was horrified what she witness. The head of her husband roll on the floor and stop at her feet.


"You have the same color as her hair but you are not her." The wife was surprise when the stranger is now standing in front of her and touch her hair.


"Mother what's with all the noise? Did father drink again?" Her daughter  came out of her room rubbing her eyes unaware of what unfolds in front of her.


"Run." the mother said with trembling voice.


"Huh?


"Run!" the mother scream at her daughter.


"Wh-what? What's happening?" the daughter seem confused by what her mother said but after she take a step and felt the wet floor. She look down


"B-blood? Huh? F-father?!" her legs went weak and slump down on the floor as she cried.


"Just run and escape while I hold him off!" the mother's trembling while grasping the stranger.


"Oh, is it really you?! I have to make sure! Let me see your face!" the stranger lets out a sinister laugh like he found what he is looking for.


"Hurry run!!!" she scream at her daughter who is still crying on the floor.


"Y-yes mother! I will come back as soon as I call for help!" she immediately stands up and run toward the back door of their house.


"Hey! You're in the way." The woman flinches when she heard the stranger cold voice.


*slash*


"Huh? My-my arms!" She screams as the stranger cut off her arms by a dagger.


"So noisy."
