In the end

Chapter 1-It's war time

I confidently walked through the corridors. This is my base-my gang's actually. But who cares. They hate me anyways...even though I am considered beautiful (I have hazel eyes and nice soft brown hair although my voice isn't as beautiful as Stacey's) and can fight but they just will not accept me. To be honest, who would? I was that nerd whom everyone bullied, including my gang members, except Stacey and Brandon of course. They would never bully me, they are way too kind, probably the kindest underworld member you would ever find. Mainly because they didn't even want to join this whole gang thing but they only did because this is the only way I could survive.

My gang members, aka my ex-bullies, tortured me till I became this badass monster, scribbling this story right now. I could fight 10 men all by myself. And when I mean 10 men, I don't mean those weaklings who can't even stand the sight of blood, I meant those men who have muscle pumped up on every part of their body and scars all over their erm-basically everywhere. Shocking huh? But to get to this stage, I went through the unimaginable. I mean, I was once a nerd who gets bullied every day but never complains or stand up for herself. But all this changed because I want to, because I believed in myself. The once shy and timid Kayla is now gone and replaced with the badass monster who never misses her target, someone you would fear. Although...I know that deep down inside me, an innocent bright girl who puts others before herself still remains, forever inside my heart. With me, even till now. But I still miss me, the old me. The happy me, the bright me, the smiling me, the laughing me. The..gone me...

I am one of the best members but things still were pretty hard for me. And that is because...we are going to war. And I have absolutely no confidence of winning it which means that we are in deep shit. The B3 Gang, which I hated to admit but is still the truth, were really good and we are outnumbered in terms of members and also in terms of weapons. Its soon that B3 gang would take over us and be the one leading the underworld with us either dead or used as their "men" even though some of us are women but never mind. You get what I mean.

Anyways, I had better hurry over to the meeting room otherwise they would get angry and use me as a punching bag. Again. Why didn't I fight back? Because they would accuse me of betraying my gang and have me punished. Besides, the leader of the group also doesn't see me as a fellow gang member whom he is supposed to trust. (Yea I say "supposed" with sarcasm because he never trusts me with anything)

I stumbled into the meeting room only to regret day-dreaming just now, a few moments ago, before I had completely frozen and stood there with regret in my eyes trying to pretend to be invisible but, with a sickening thud, realises that I cannot escape anymore.

I got thrown onto the cool hard floor. They sneered as they warned me to never be late again and smirks before starting their daily "sessions". Painful sessions I suppose...They repeatedly kicked me in the stomach while some punched my face. Blow after blow, tears gathered in my eyes. Why couldn't they treat me for who I am? Why are they so mean to me? What have I even done to deserve this?? God answer me! WHO ARE YOU, GOD, TO BE PLAYING WITH ME?! AM I THAT PATHETIC TO YOU? ARE YOU FINALLY AMUSED AT WHAT YOU ARE SEEING RIGHT NOW? WHAT DID I EVEN DO TO YOU AND YOUR TORTUROUS EVIL HORRIBLE PLANS!!!! GIVE ME BACK MY LIFE, I DESERVE THEM WHILE YOU DON'T BECAUSE YOU ARE NOT FIT TO BE CONTROLLING MY LIFE FOR ME!!!! My inner soul screamed and cried and went crazy. It happens all the time. But never would I ever cry in front of my gang members. I don't want to see their satisfied smirks to see my crying. Crying pathetically I meant. I know I just boasted about how well I can fight a few paragraphs ago but that doesn't mean I don't have any feelings. My heart literally tore into smithery during the past few years of my pathetic life.

So anyways, I sucked it up and continue to receive my punishment for something that I should not be blamed for (obviously). "But whatever, I don't care, it's not the first time it happened anyways," I reassured myself in my head although I knew it was to no avail. Because my heart still broke. It always did.

After they finally got bored because I did not have any reactions, they left me alone only to have me cough out some blood and lay there hopelessly in a pool of blood.

Lucky for me, I met the people who brighten up my day-my life I meant, Stacey and Brandon. Without them, I would be a hopeless wreck. Although they were late for the meeting too, the others didn't bother them. They just told them to hurry up. A little part of me felt insanely jealous. I know Stacey and Brandon are not mean people and that they care for me but I just can't help but feel envious of them. "Kayla, hurry up, we will talk about this later. We need to start the meeting soon, it's very important. Brandon and I will help you wash up later, okay??" A gentle voice (if you haven't realised that only someone as perfect as Stacey has a gentle voice this beautiful) woke me up from my little "jealousy here and jealousy there" world. I brush it off and staggered over to an empty seat and the meeting begun shortly after.

"I'm sure you all know the problem here." The leader said firmly but I could hear a hint of sadness in his voice.

Everyone hung their heads in shame as they slowly nodded, sadly. I know we are supposed to be brave and fearless but we just couldn't. This could lead everyone to death if we lose. This is by far the scariest thing that has ever happened to us. We survived for so long but all this could be lost in just split seconds.

"We are outnumbered in many ways. Manpower. Weapons. Territory. And the only thing we have is people better at fighting and an old reputation which helped us strived till today. I'm afraid that this new gang called B3 is catching up with up very fast. Very very fast." The leader said in a tone that sounded way smarter than any teacher (Although I know very well that the truth was nothing like what his voice sounded like).

I mustered all my courage, "Then we are going to war." Ending it with a death glare. My gang may not like me, but I know that they know that I know that they need me. Or at least, my skills. (are you confused by the "know know" part?)

***********************************************

Ugh. Another short chapter...so sorry that so far all the chapters are so short...So! Since they are short and I can't seem to find a way to change that, I will try to publish 2 chapter in a week. Hopefully, it goes well. Usually, it will be up before Thursday and before Sunday. Hope you guys will continue to support me! Please take mercy on me considering it is my first ever story on wattpad and my English ain all that good. I mostly get inspired by FF on youtube and Kdramas that I'm so addicted to, can you relate? Hahaha

Currently, the publish dates will be one chapter up before Thursday or if I really no time then I will upload on Thursday. And another chapter published before Monday comes, either Sunday before midnight or early morning of a Monday morning if I can't finish in time.

Hope you enjoy my story! Hwaiting for those with upcoming exams, those little adorable kiddos learning how to walk, Teens with your love life (if you see what I mean), adults with all their work and last but not least, hwaiting to those relaxing at home and enjoying every peace they can get. Have a great week!! <3

Thanks for all your love,
