It was 1 in the morning when I left the casino. "Why would a girl be in a casino?" You might ask. Well, I was the singer there, or the flapper girl. Anyway, I left the casino through the back door which lead to a dark, wet and foul-smelling alleyway. I sighed as I realised that I didn't have an umbrella to protect me from the pouring rain.
As I began to walk back home, I heard a deep chuckle from behind me. "Leaving so soon?~" I swiftly turned around to where the voice came from while taking small steps back. "Who are you? What do you want from me?!" I shouted, acting tough. The man or thing chuckled again "Why.. I want you to put on a little show for us.."
That's when I heard fast, multiple footsteps coming my way. So I ran.
My black shoes splashed in the puddles that were illuminated by the pale moonlight. I kept on running and the fast footsteps got closer, and closer. I tried to lose them by turning into the alleys, but they kept on following me. Before I could make it to my door, I felt something blunt hit the back of my head, followed by a loud CRACK!
I fell into the damp, stone ground and didn't move. I couldn't. I was in too much pain and in so much fear. So I stayed and let them do whatever they wanted to do. I heard something sharp, like coming out of a sheath, and footsteps walking slowly towards me. Their shadow loomed over me as he raised his blade and swung it down, into my back and directly through my spine.
Pain. That's the last thing I felt before my world turned black...
