11: Her First Blood

Kiera stopped as she felt a stinging pain. Her body was feeling numb. But she didn't want to stop. She gulped, trying to lessen the pain,
"I rushed inside my room. Only Ace was there. I dashed on the ground, crying. I was feeling as if I'm gonna faint. Ace showed up and gave me his shoulder,
'What happened kitten?'
Yeah, he used to call me kitten before we decided on the name Queen if Hearts. I hugged him tightly,
'I-um-they-um... They found my mother!'
'Aren't you supposed to be happy kitten? They found you a family.'
'My family are you guys! That woman just got pregnant with me and then left me on the streets to grow up on my own. I didn't even have a name till few years ago. I hate her! I hate her as much as I love you guys! She doesn't deserve to live!'
I jumped to my feet and roughly wiped the tears away. I rummaged my hands throughout the room. I wasn't thinking much. I never thought much. My brain was getting foggier every minute. Ace jumped as he wrapped his arms around me,
'What are you doing kitten?'
'JEON JUNGKOOK DO YOU FUCKING TRUST ME OR NOT?'
I screamed at him. He was only a boy of 16 back then. He looked me in the eyes and sternly said,
'I trust you more than my own life.'
'Then take a gun and follow me! Please?'
Jungkook shrugged his shoulders. He looked me in the eye. He saw my mental state. I wasn't there to here a no. He knew me. He knew that I wasn't in the right mind. Jungkook picked the gun with loads of hesitation. I then dashed off, my fingers wrapped around his."
Kiera stopped. She had laid wet patches on the cushion. It was hard for her. To remember her life meant to remember Ace. A lover, a friend, leader. For the world he was a monster, a murderer, a threat. But only knew who he was.
"Kiera, I know it's tough for you..."
Kiera cut Taehyung off. She already feels low. His pity would just make her feel weaker. She cleared her throat,
"He followed my lead to that strip club. He stopped before entering,
'Kitten, we both shouldn't be here.'
I chuckled sarcastically,
'I have this place's blood JK. I'm sure it won't hurt much.'
'We can wait here if you want. Let's not enter, please?'
'But I can't wait any longer! I want to finish quickly!'
The same annoying voice chuckled as soon as I screamed. I looked around and saw her drunk. Her arms wrapped around another man. I ran towards them. Jungkook following me ofcourse. I screamed as soon as I got hold of her biceps,
'I want answers from you.'
'And I currently want sex! So fuck off bitch!'
I clenched my jaw. My mind had nothing in it now. It was just thick fog. My tears had made my vision blurry. I picked up the gun and my hands pressed her jaws tightly,
'You answer me now or I blow your fucking brain up!'
Jungkook picked his gun up as well. He knew it was wrong, but again, felony was what we were taught. He held his gun tightly as he signed the guy to go away,
'Fuck off man! Find another slut to bang! Just get lost before I shoot you right at your dick!'
The guy didn't put up a fight. He was way too drunk to put up one anyways. She was fuming. She pushed me and slapped me. I fell right on Jungkook. Thanks to her, my temper increased as well. I hit her with the back of my revolver and pressed it right on her forehead. I gritted my teeth,
'Answer my questions and you are free to go slut!'
'Whatever! Ask Bitch!'
She rolled her eyes. She was high maybe. I pressed it harder on her forehead as tears overflowed my heterochromic eyes,
'When was I born?'
'Maybe 17th October 1999! You were such a pain in the butt, you were a late asshole. I didn't know about your existence till 4 months or so. Then I had to give birth to you and throw you away, in dumpster. Gosh you would've ended my youth!'
'Fucking just answer what you are asked! Who did you fuck up with to get pregnant with me?'
'I don't remember. I was drunk. Besides, I sleep with a different man every hour! He gave me money! We fucked and then I ended up with you! You fucking asshole made me make money off of oral sex for about...'
'SHUT YOUR FUCKING DIRTY MOUTH! TELL ME A FUCKING THING ABOUT MY FATHER! ANYTHING!'
I screamed. I was shaking. My eyes were monstrous and inhumane. My face was red and my breathing was hitched. My heart was racing. She just rolled her eyes,
'He had those cursed eyes as yours! Now fuck off! You are just a good for nothing! You are just going to end up being fucked by men anyways!'
'NO! I'M STRONG! I'M NOT A SLUT LIKE YOU! I KNOW LOVE UNLIKE YOU! I'M NOT A LOSER LIKE YOU! YOU DON'T FUCKING DESERVE TO LIVE! YOU KNOW WHAT? I'M JUST GONNA SHOW YOU SOME MERCY! SAY HELLO TO SATAN ON MY BEHALF SLUT!'
I said as my brain went numb. But I felt a kinda sugar rush. In every one of my veins. I pulled the trigger and shot her till the gun was empty. She fell on the ground with a thud. Her blood oozing out. I felt peace. Her plastic face was still yet it was bothering me. I kicked it. I kicked it loads of times. Till it started hurting my leg. I had some splashes of blood on me now. I took a bit of the her blood on my finger and chuckled. I laughed like a maniac and scribbled the words 'Q.H' beside her useless body. I turned my heels and looked at Jungkook and gave him a small smile before passing out right on his arms."
Kiera stopped. She felt as if she was drowning. Her heartbeat was rather low. Her body was starting to go cold. She sat up at a bolt and smiled at Taehyung.
Taehyung rushed to her. The smile she gave him was not at all normal. It was rather worrying. It was emotionless and dry. She fell on the sofa without a warning. Her head was slipping off the sofa but Taehyung was quick. He laid his palm in between her head and the ground. The Queen had gallen weak. Well, talking about her first blood, her first kill was way too much memories to recollect for her brain.
