-"Uncle... You know it's not his fault."

-"Haoxuan, you did enough. Shut up before you two have the same end"

He knew that Haoxuan was right. But his heart was pleading for revenge. For blood...

This is what he waited for over all these years. Time has changed him completely.. He can't even recognise himself anymore.

He listened to the screams Yibo let out as his minions beat him to a pulp.

-"Stop." he said and walked up to Yibo

-"Its a waste to throw out such strength, you'll work for me from now on"

-"Never" said Yibo and passed out.

I woke up from the sharp and buzzing pain from my abdomen. A bright light blinded me. I tried my best to keep my eyes open. But I was too used to being in the dark.

-"Where am I..."

-"Shut up" I heard an annoying familiar noise

-"Haoxuan?"

-"Duuh" he said as he put ointment on my bruises

-"Why are you helping me?"

-"I feel like we're on the same page. Leaded by the cruel fate of ours. One that won't allow us to live a normal life"

I chucked to his words. I knew what he meant. But it was funny hearing it from him. The one that was stopping me from living normally

-"Whatchu laughing at jerk?" he said and pressed on my bruise

-"Ow ow! i'm sorry okay? Chill out"

-"Oh and by the way, If my uncle decided that you're one of us. You have no other choice but to join"

-"And what if I don't?"

-"You clearly don't really cared about your own life. Then he'll find a way to destroy your loved ones. For example Zhan"

-"Don't you dare"

-"Yo, I'm not the one that decided okay?

-"Fine, I'll do what he wants"

-"You might regret it"

-"As long as hes safe"

It has been quite a while. I am getting used to being one of "them". And I hated myself for that. I only felt disgust towards myself. After what he's made me do... After all the people that were hurt by me... I don't deserve to live anymore. Who am I to do all that to someone that's not guilty whatsoever.

I looked at my palms. They might look clean to someone else. But to me they where drenched in dirt.. In blood... I ran over to the sink and scrubbed my hands until they were red and bled from the scratches. I couldn't forgive myself. Even though it was not on my own will. And yet I still had the dream of meeting him someday. Pathetic.

-"Let's go" said Haoxuan.

And here we go again. On a mission that we both don't want to be on.

After a while we were there

After a while we were there. This time we are here to deal with some business competitors. Only someone as rotted as our "boss" would chose to kill his competitors instead of making his company stronger.

We entered a train station and waited for the right moment

Although it wasn't the first time I did something like this

Although it wasn't the first time I did something like this. But I could still feel my hands tremble and my heart raise.

Then I saw him... Standing infront of me in shock

I could see the shock and disgust in his eyes

I felt terrible... If only he knew that I'm doing this in order to protect him...
