Execrable
Extremely bad; detestable

The next morning the pair left before the first ray of sunshine could brighten the indigo skies. Aria had explained that Veronica and John had already been keeping an eye on their target, the past couple of weeks which made their job a lot easier.

The plan was simple; kidnap Marta's twin sisters and torture them for a bit before sending them to meet their father. If you asked Aria, she was doing charitable work by reuniting the twins with their long-lost father. It didn't hurt that she would be having fun while doing it.

Aria and Ransom were currently at an old, abandoned, sketchy looking guest house. The perfect place for them to execute their plan.

The raven-haired girl was clad in full black as she stood by the Cadillac waiting for Ransom to join her. A few minutes later he came out of the withering building looking like the handsome devil that he was. He wore a tight black sweater that showed off his muscles with matching black jeans and boots. Dark shades covered his ocean blue eyes, a smirk plastered on his face.

"Like what you see?" Aria's smirk matched his.

She didn't reply instead she pulled out a gun from her waistband. It was identical to her blue one just a little bigger.

"This is yours, I hope you like it." she handed the gun over to him, her heart skipped a beat as he took it.He looked absolutely breathtaking with it in his hand.

He turned the metal over, enjoying the feel of it then something caught his eye. On the trigger, a tiny 'R' was engraved. She took the time to get it personalized.

"Use it well."

The pair stood in the parking lot waiting for the twins to leave their favorite coffee shop. Addison and Olivia sat by the window chatting cheerfully. Little did they know that they were being watched and waited on.

Aria pulled out two syringes from the backpack and handed one to Ransom.

"Remember to hit it in the neck for the fastest effect."

Their heads both shot up as they hear the ring of the bell that dangled in front of the coffee shop door. Aria nodded to Ransom signaling that it was go time. As soon as the girls past by they each pulled out their syringes and swiftly jabbed them into the oblivious girl's necks.

"Step 1. Complete."

Addison woke up in an unfamiliar room. It was dark except for a little light that streamed through the boarded-up windows, it took a while for her eyes to adjust. She tried to move her body but she couldn't. That's when it dawned on her, she was tied up to a chair. Her body flew into panic mode. Immediately she started thrashing around, the ropes bit into her wrists causing burns.

"Hello?! Anyone?! Please let me go! You got the wrong person," the terrified girl cried.

"Shhhh, " Aria smirked at the girl tied up in the chair, "you gonna need that pretty little voice."

Aria flipped her knives in the air and caught them in a swift movement again and again to intimidate the terrified girl and it worked. Addison let out a few sobs as tears ran down her face freely.

Ransom watched the girl in awe. The fiery, dangerous look in her eyes made her look even more beautiful. The way she casually had her feet propped up on the table while carelessly playing with her knives. It was the first time he saw her in action and honestly, it scared him a little bit.

"Rans how do you feel about making a little movie for our dear little friend Marta?" Aria jumped out of her chair, making her way to Addison.

"We could call it 'What happened to twin A'."

Ransom came into the light for the first time. Addison couldn't believe her eyes. He was supposed to be dead.

"I- I- you-"

Aria took out her knife and made a long cut along her neck. Addison let out a scream but quietened down when she saw the look in Aria's eyes.
She untied the girl. She always enjoyed the chase. The look of desperation in their eyes as they look for an escape, any small way out only to realize there isn't. She let out a dark chuckle as she watched Addison run to every window and door. But patience was never Aria's strong trait and she soon grew tired of the girls sobbing and screaming.

Aria caught the girl by the neck and threw her on the ground.

"Employ elbow block, and body shot. Weaken right jaw. Now fracture. Break cracked ribs. Traumatize solar plexus. Dislocate jaw entirely. Heel kick to diaphragm. In summary, ears ringing, jaw fractured, three ribs cracked, four broken. Diaphragm hemorrhaging. Physical recovery: six weeks. Full psychological recovery: six months." Aria spoke so softly that if you didn't pay close attention you would have missed it.

With one fluid motion Aria had the girl screaming out in pain on the ground. The sound of bones cracking echoed in the freezing room. It was dead silent for a minute and then a shriek was heard. Aria drove the metal blue knife through the girl's chest.

"Recovery is only possible if the victim survives."

~~~
Aria put the tape into a box and wrapped it up making a big bow on the top. She placed the letter just under the bow and handed it to Ransom for delivery.

"You know the place best. Remember you need to be in and out before anyone notices. Place the box in a place where only she can find it."

Ransom started to leave when Aria called out to him.

"And Ransom, don't screw this up, " she warned coldly.
