As the breaking news flashed across the TV screen, it was like the world had stopped around her as she focused all her attention to the screen. Tanya squinted her eyes to make sure that the three men being displayed were indeed her rapers.
News reporter 1: "In the newly released surveillance footage, the three men can be seen taking a young lady's innocence as she tried to fight them off. However her efforts were short lived as they ended her life after their assault at Ivory Children's park; St. Thomas. The JDF has launched a curfew in search of the predators."
News reporter 2: "The young lady has been identified as 19 year old Shanice Brown, daughter of the principal of a very prominent high school in the vicinity, TVJ has reach out to him but we haven't received a response as yet. The JDF is urging the public to be very careful and if you have any information on who these three serial rapers could be, please call 911 or the nearest police station. Reporting for TVJ News".
Their images popped up on screen, blurry and dark but Tanya recognized them right away. She squeezed the bed sheets of the hospital bed, while trying to hold back the tears as she vowed to get revenge.

Everything is going well for Tanya, not only did she land a new job as a teacher at Yallahs High school but also she is now in a relationship with the gentleman, Oneil who had saved her life 7 months ago.

As they pulled up to Yallahs High, she looked out the window to see all the children gleaming in their uniforms and looking studious.
"Bwoy Oneil, mi excited bad" Tanya said
"Mi know you ago do well babe, yuh ready fi dis!" He replied.They pulled over as she kissed him goodbye and went inside.

Tanya sat at her desk with glowing eyes, happy and cheerful as she spoke to each parent and student. Marking off names as the next group approaches; mother, father and daughter, the father said "Good morning teacher". Her ears alerted as she recognized the voice of the male parent, she looked up and analyzed the student first, then moved on to analyze the parents.
