Hera
I couldn't believe what I heard. I thought my mother would talk to her or try to attack her but my mother did the unexpected, she gave Mary a gun.
"What?" I asked in shock, feeling more than just the pain in my body throbbing.
"Yeah, she gave me a gun. I looked at her in shock. I swear I thought that she was going to kill me in that moment, but she offered it to me."
Turning around to face a crazy Mary, Claudia took a dominant stance and put her hands on her hips.
"What happened to you?"
"How dare you ask?!" Mary charged at Claudia, but before any physical contact was made, Claudia pulled out her gun.
Mary froze and gasped out loud as Claudia aimed it faultlessly at the area between her eyes. She saw every inch of the cold thing in her hand and behind it she saw a very emotionless Claudia. She didn't know if Claudia wanted to kill her or not, she couldn't tell.
"Answer me. What happened?"
Mary still wouldn't speak, she chose to shake her head vigorously and screamed out, "Fuck off!"
Claudia held the gun with both her hands this time, making Mary jump up in fear and land painfully on her ass. She groaned out from the impact, but chose to keep her hands up and her eyes closed.
"What happened?"
Mary saw no way out, she thought that if she didn't speak, Claudia would kill her, so with a heavy heart, she spoke up.
"I killed my father."
"Who?"
"My father dammnit!" Mary lost her patience, but quickly regathered herself, "Alex isn't our biological father. He's actually infertile." Mary scoffed. "My real father, I killed him."
"Why?"
"He was abusing my mother and us. He swore my grandmother and had forbidden us from seeing her. He... h-he raped m-me."
Claudia kept her gun up, and kept her emotionless face on, but inside she felt bad for poor Mary.
"How?" Claudia asked.
"I stabbed him with a cleaver several times. I spent three years in juvie, but once I made it out, nothing was ever the same again."
"What do you mean?"
"In juvie I learnt two thing, how to hack and how to fight. Let's just say for a good reason, I preferred the hacking. I can hack anyone with any security system of any kind. But fighting, not so much."
"Have you ever shot a gun?"
"What?" Mary looked up at Claudia.
"You hold it in front of you, you aim for the head, never the chest, and you pull the trigger. You don't shoot, you pull the trigger."

Action"This is Hilary." I introduced her, still not being able to move an inch because of Claudia's eyes glued permanently on Hilary. Immediately after saying that, Claudia got up, pulling her gun from her hip and aiming it at Hilary. Hilary screamed out...
