"-You have an interview at 11:00 am with a reporter from Wayne Enterprises at the opening of that new cafe. What was it's name? Oh, that's right. Briar Cafe. You don't want to get on the bad side of Wayne Enterprises, so get up Ms. Abaddon."
Raven' s manager started answering calls, for more interview times most likely, leaving Raven to wake herself up.
Raven was laying on her bed sideways, sprawled out. She still had on her clothes from yesterday, smelling of smoke and drinks, which means she had a concert. Not to mention she stayed up late for reasons only she knew.
Raven, a few minutes later, was still half asleep when she finally rolled over to sit up. She stretched, popping joints, sighing as her sore muscles loosened. She rubbed her eyes, blinking slowly, hearing her manager's high heels making clicking sounds. Click clack click clack click clack.
"Miss Abaddon!" startled, Raven opened her eyes, seeing her manager above her. "You fell asleep again. You really must fix these bad sleeping habits. I shouldn't need to wake you," complained her manager. "Alright! I'm up!, " Raven snapped.
She sat up again, fully awake, "You said an interview at eleven, right? What time is it?" Claire looked at her watch, "6am, Miss Abaddon, and I prefer that you call me Miss Rogan." Raven sighed at the time, "Who in their right mind would get up this early when they dont have to, Claire." Miss Rogan clearly didn't appreciate the use of her first name, she clicked away with her too tall heels, muttering at her clients disrespectfulness.
Raven sighed again, her manager was way too uptight, she really needed to take a break, but it is Raven's own fault- she can't even count how many interviews, appointments, camera shoots she's missed. Not that she cared.
Looking at the hotel desk's clock, which read 6:03am, meaning she only got an hour or so of sleep. She went to the closet, picking out some work-out clothes to wear, but first, she sniffed her hair, a shower. Getting up, she turned up the hot water and let it hit her back, rinsing off last night's air impurities.
Closing her eyes, she thought of last night.
Her sold-out concert had started at 9pm, lasting until 12am. After that, she got a text saying, 'Edmund Erwin'. Reading that name, she thought of the man on the news that was donating thousands of dollars to the homeless and orphanages. In fact, she had met him the other day at a party to socialize with other wealthy inhabitants of Gotham. He was what one would call a 'good person'. Except one thing. He was her target.
The secret reasons she stays out late is to finish her real job . When she reads her targets name, her body goes numb, her mind only thinks one thing... This is going to be fun and it is. The light leaving her victim's eyes. His body losing warmth. The blood dripping... When she reads the name, she goes into a trance. She doesn't think much. She only thinks of how fun it's going to be when she slices his throat, silencing his scream.
It doesn't take much time, only a few minutes. What takes hours for to return is every time she kills someone, her chest gets gets twinges of pain. She's had no luck finding a cure. Lately, she's takes up meditation, hoping that would help, but she thought it was extremely boring, preferring to hit punching bags.
Opening her eyes, she said to herself, "I won't disappoint you father. I will become stronger."
Done with the shower, she put on her sweat pants, sneakers, and a crop top that said 'What Doesn't Kill You Makes You Stronger'. Her usual outfit for a work-out. She put her hair up into a pony tail, grabbed her ipod and earphones and headed for the gym.
