Blood looks a-lot like paint and faces are the perfect canvas. Sometimes I get confused between the two...
Hello readers, I'm Akari and here's my story. I took karate, I did boxing, I took wrestling, and I took art all by the age of 10. It all started with a simple painting. I was inspired by the Anguished Man painting by an unknown artist who had mixed his own blood into the paint and died by suicide soon after finishing the work. I was getting my paint setup to finish up the painting when I suddenly heard something glass drop and break in the kitchen. I grabbed the closest thing to me, a paint knife. I slowly walked to where the noise came from. I saw a figure with a bloody knife. I was frozen. I started running without thinking. I heard loud footsteps running toward me. I quickly turned back and saw the black figure chasing me then I fell over a rock ...I hit my head and I was knocked unconscious. Later I woke up not remembering a single thing...in a dark room that smelled like...peaches? What kind of dark and creepy room smells so good? In the midst of my thoughts I heard two people talking. "We need her on our team sir." the first voice stated. "I'll make my decision when I see her skills." the second voice replied. 'My skills?' I thought to myself. "What did they mean by seeing my skills?" I said to myself. Then I heard a door open. "Show us your skills, kid, and i'll make the choice if you'll join us." "But I might add...it's very dangerous for a kid your age." One of the men stated. How do they know how old I am, do they know where I live......do they know my parents? I thought to myself, I began to panic, so I stood in a defensive stance with my fist clinched into tight balls and I looked at both of the men. I punched at one of them and then in a quick dash one of them grabbed my arm and put it behind my back. I then realized I was trapped...they had won a battle against me. It seemed like the man didn't want to hurt me. "How about we make a deal, 40k for you to join our mafia group?" "You can quit any time, and you can keep the money." I looked at them like they were crazy. Even if I decline, I could keep the 30k, for FREE!! "Sure, but only for the money." I said as the man let me go. They opened the door and I followed them out.
