Her hair, her eyes, her beautiful lips and perfect smile, so precious, so... delicate. Oh my sweet Emilia, though you do not know my feelings for you, just know, my sweet girl, they are there.
A tall figure thought to himself as he watched Emilia Watson from his perch, he could see everything she did as she sat with her friends Ashley Derekson and Sylvia Erics.
Her personality was always brimming with such happiness , such hope, such passion... Her auburn hair flowing down to the middle of her back flowed in the wind as she laughed at something someone had said, her grey eyes glistening in the sunlight of the Autumn day.
The figure let out a sigh, longing to be with her, but knowing that if he were to approach her she would just flee from him in fear, "Sometimes it's just better to observe and act only at the right opportunity," the figure whispered to himself.
The figure took out a small digital camera and snapped a few photos of Emilia to save to his collection and then stood up to leave, as he was about to leave he looked over one last time towards his beloved Emilia, but instead of her smiling and laughing like she was doing, she was standing up facing a guy and they looked like they were arguing.
The figure recognized the guy, who was getting violent and starting to scare the people around him, the figure recognized this person, "Nigel Alexis, top jock on the schools football team, and the king of douches," the figure said, eyeing Nigel with hate.
Nigel was always picking on people around the school, be it girls, boy, or even the teachers, he's been suspended three times but the school keeps letting him back
in because without him, the football team would suck.The figure watched as Emilia punched Nigel straight in the nose, Nigel staggered back, hand to his face, and removed his hand revealing a bloody nose, then Nigel did something that would be the end of him, he slapped Emimlia.
The figures hands clenched tightly in rage and he knew what he had to do, what he wanted to do, he laughed to himself as he grabbed his stuff and walked away, putting together a plan to get rid of Nigel and stop him from ever hurting Emilia again.
9:38 PM, The Following Evening
Nigel got out of the shower and looked in the mirror observing his nose, which thanks to that bitch Emilia, now was broken.
He dried off his hair and brushed his teeth, getting off all of the remains of his dinner. He put on his clothes and got ready for bed, and that's when he heard it, a loud bang echoed through the house, like the sound of someone knocking something over.
His chihuahua Rosette started to growl and ran out of the room towards where the noise came from, Nigel followed grabbing a broom as he slowly crept down the hall. The chihuahua was barking now, then it was cut off with a yip, Nigel froze when he looked around the corner.
There in the center of the room above an unmoving animal stood a hooded figure, bloody knife in hand.
"Well... if it isn't Nigel Alexis, best player on the football team, and the biggest ass in school," the hooded figure said with a deep growly voice,which sounded like it was caused by a voice changer.
"Who the hell are you?!?" Nigel asked trying to act tough and cool, the figure fully turned around and through his mask, looked Nigel right in the eyes, "Nigel... you really think that the broom is going to help you win in a knife fight?" The figure asked tilting his head.
Nigel looked at the broom in his hand and dropped it, then made a break for the door. "Oh Nigel, I thought you were a big strong man," the figure said with a sigh, then began to pursue Nigel, Nigel ran out of his yard and into the road, turning right.
Nigel lived in a pretty shitty part of town, rarely anyone lived in his secluded section of the neighborhood, so Nigel knew screaming for help wouldn't do anything, not to mention he couldn't even call the police as he left his phone in the house.
Nigel ran through a vacant house's yard and jumped the fence, landing on the other side on top of a pile of metal parts which battered and scratched his skin as he scrambled out of it, bleeding from his scratches.
The figure jumped over the fence a second later and avoided the metal, "Jesus Christ man, you really are an idiot, at the rate your running and the amount your bleeding, you won't even survive that long if you manage to get away from me," the figure yelled, laughing all the while.
He's lying, don't slow down, you'll reach safety soon, Nigel told himself, trying to stay calm.
His joints were beginning to ache but he pushed on, he thought about trying to lose the figure in the woods, but then he tripped over his feet and slammed face first into the ground, fracturing even more his still-broken nose, he tried to get up, but he was kicked in the back to the ground again.
Nigel was dizzy and in a daze on the ground, he felt himself being dragged across the ground, his face getting majorly scraped up against the concrete.
He felt the concrete turn to grass as he was dragged into the woods by the figure, the figure then turned him around and looked him dead in the eyes, and Nigel recognized the figures face. "W-wait... aren't you Ja-'', Nigel was cut off as the figure lashed out with his knife stabbing it into Nigels arm, Nigel screamed.
"SHUT UP!" the figure yelled angrily, then calmed himself.
"I know what you did to my darling Emilia," the figure hissed, ripping the knife out of Nigel's are and putting it against his throat, "You have always been a asshole to everyone, and a violent one at that. You always think you're top dog but listen here buddy, you aren't."
Nigel was starting to black out, but a slap brought him back, "Oh no... you aren't dying that easily, I've got to have a little fun before that," the figure said chuckling darkly.
He then got to work on his victim.
