It was a little past 2 in the morning. A young boy sat on top of a building. The building was a club. He was waiting. Waiting for what? I could not say, but he was waiting patiently. He was sat cross-legged gazing out at the glittering skyline. Today would be his last kill. He was sure.

And then he saw a figure below him entering the club. He smiled. The knife sat in his hand comfortably he had held this knife night after night for comfort, even if he wasn't in the mood to kill. Pools of moonlight glittered and reflected into it. He stood up twisting his arm behind his back so that his victim wouldn't be able to see it. He stared at the ground while anger bubbled in him, like venom.

A moment later A man walked out onto the roof. His hair was neat and he wore a Black and white suit. He held a brief case in his hand and he talked calmly into the night air. "Why have you summoned me here? You are just a young boy". The man questioned. The boy raised his head to meet the man's gaze. For some reason, the man felt uncomfortable. He took a step back his arm reaching up to fiddle with his tie, a comforting gesture. " But you like young boys don't you?" The boy laughed into the air.

The man felt startled and his eyes widened. Oh what pretty eyes he had, the boy thought, shame he was going to take them away. "Go home" the man warned the boy, a sharp edge to his tone " you know nothing". The boy laughed. It was heart-stopping, filled with grief and happiness, anger and bitterness. In fact, it was more of a sob. "Oh, but you see I do. 6 years ago today, you murdered my brother. YOU KILLED HIM" the boy shrieked, close to breaking down. "Now I have a tape here. I'm going to record your confession and let you go. Or you refuse and I kill you".

The mans eyes were filled with terror and his hands shook as he placed the briefcase on the ground. "Just hurry up with it" he begged to boy.

The boy took the tape recorder and placed it on the ground pressing the button to start recording. He glared at the man.

"...My name is..Allen Russell...Please i- I am to confess the rape an-and murder of Roman Vendetta...Sorry..I guess"

The boy bent down and clicked the button again.

"you guess?"

Then the boy sprinted forwards, so fast he was a blur. The man staggered backwards but soon tripped landing harshly on his bum. He lifted his arm up as if that would save him.

It didn't.

With a deafening scream, the boy sank the knife into the man's stomach. Yes for once he did not stab the heart. For he wanted this victim to live his life in prison. The man fell down on his back screaming out in pain eyes wide. "You- You said" he stuttered. The boy cackled, towering over the man "I just wanted you to know what it felt like for my brother when you stabbed him with the exact same knife". The boy peered at the man whose face was contorted with pain. And his lips twisted up into a bloodthirsty smile. One. Last. Time.

He peeled off the gloves he was wearing and Burnt them. He sprinkled the Ash off the side of the building. None of this would lead back to him. He left the roof and went down into the club not stopping to tell anyone of his late-night bloodshed.

This would be Rusty Vendettas' last kill.
