"Did she agree to it? " I ask.
"No, she said she'd rather die." He replies.
"What else did she say?" I ask, frustration lacing my voice.
"She told you to go to hell." He smirks sheepishly.
"It didn't have to end like this, but she's asking for it."...

Watching the darkness consume the daylight was one of my favorite things to do, it reminded me of how I had spent my life, watching the bright lights fade away leaving me to stumble in the darkness, alone.
I watched the sun set far in the western plateaus from the terrace in my room.
"Axel, are you sure we're doing this right?" Ethan asked, standing next to me on the terrace.
"It is the only way we can get what we want, what makes you think she will give in if we are nice to her?"
"The idea of acting as the bad guy will only make her hate you and she may never give in." he said, concerned.
"Ethan, man I told you we are not going to ask her to give in we are going to force her into giving us what we want. Besides, if it weren't for her family my dad would still be alive." I said the thirst for revenge was eminent in my voice.
"Alright, do whatever you think is the best but I think it would've been easier to trick her than to force her into giving in. You never know how strong a person might be until you try to break them."
"Ethan, we are talking about a girl who needed psychological therapy to get over her parents deaths. Mark my words, Natalie Astor is already broken." I assured my schemer.
"Okay, you know better. After all, you trained for this all your life, you're the leader." With this, he turned and left.
"Chase, keep an eye on him and his sister, I've a feeling he might do something stupid." I instructed Chase, he seemed to be the most loyal amongst all my gang members.
"You bet I will." Chase said, reassuringly. He has always been the person I can trust.
Natalie is a stubborn, innocent, bold girl, but little does she know of what awaits her in the future. She has no idea that she is the center of attention of many gangs throughout the country, but no one needs her as desperately as we do.
Ethan is the schemer and plotter of all our plans so far, but this time I decided to hunt Astor down myself. Ethan is the sneaky guy who likes to take enemies by surprise or trick them into falling in our traps, he did not like the idea of torturing Natalie throughout the school year. But it pleasures me to harm her all I can.
The door banged as Noah came in with a panicked look on his face.
"Axel, we have a problem."
"What is it now?" I grumble.
"The Strikes looted our supply of Cocaine and Marijuana, they killed our men and raided all three of our trucks."
"What?" I shrieked like a girl. I really had to stop doing that, I did that ever time I freaked out.
"Our men were unloading the stock in Manhattan, in our main gang house, The Strikes attacked and killed almost all the loaders, guards and drivers, leaving the rest badly injured." He said without missing a beat.
