“It’s been a long time old man. Its my pleasure to have you as my guest.” Raffy said playfully yet dangerous.
Mr. Vaughn expression mirrors, anger towards Raffy, who is insanely smirking towards him. But Mr. Vaughn’s eye is not on Raffy, but on Elena, who is tied on the chair with bruise on her jaw and lips, that made him clenched his fist more.
“What have you done to my grand daughter you brute bastard!” Mr. Vaughn said in thunderous voice.
Ian also saw the bruise on Elena, that made his jaw clenched in worry on how Elena looks like. Fear is the expression can only be seen on Elena’s face while tears are flowing freely on her face.
His fingers is holding the trigger and ready to pull it, anytime while waiting on Mr. Vaughn’s signal, like they planned, while the other men is taking care of Raffy’s men outside.
Ian became more alert when Raffy took his gun and laugh insanely, and point it to Elena, who is eyes widen in fear and he even saw her trembling. s**t! Ian cursed inside his head.
“Why don’t you like it?” Raffy asked still pointing his gun to Elena who is now struggling.
“L-Let them g-go, and y-you can j-just e-everything t-to me! T-Torture me or k-kill me j-just let t-them go!” Elena said stuttering.
Mr. Vaughn and Ian eye widen and Raffy laugh out of entertainment, he even clapped and playfully switch his gaze to Mr. Vaughn and to Elena.
“What a heroic thing to say,” he said sarcastically and face Elena again. “But, don’t you like this family reunion where I will be the one who will send you both to hell.”
“And oh, didn’t I tell you awhile ago that I will help you to remember me, hmm?” Raffy said, and again turn his gaze to the two men infront of him who is looking at him deadly.
“What? Why are you looking me like that? Aren’t you happy that I will help your dear granddaughter to remember on how I killed her parents?” Raffy asked playfully and reach to grab Elena’s face again.
“Stop this craziness of yours Raffy and let Elena go! You know that you can’t win against me.” Mr. Vaughn said warningly.
Raffy laugh echoed the whole place after what Mr. Vaughn said as if it is some kind of joke, that only angered Mr. Vaughn more.
But the two men remain unmoved for Raffy is just beside Elena, even how much Ian’s finger aching to pull the trigger he can’t, yet.
“Stop? You want me to stop?!” Raffy asked as soon as he stopped laughing.
“I can’t and I will not stop, until I finish punishing the both of you!” He shouted.
“And you.” He said facing Elena, “I will make your life miserable as a payment of your parents debt!”
“You are the reason why my Selena choose your bastard father over me, if you just didn’t born my Selena will now still here beside me!” Raffy shouted on her face and grab her hair that made her grunt in pain.
Ian is ready to pull the trigger with his jaw clenched in anger when Raffy grab Elena’s hair.
Raffy saw what Mr. Vaughn’s men was about to do and face Ian with a wide smirked, and grab Elena’s hair more that made Elena’s face lifted and earn a loud groan from her.
“You will shoot me, huh? Come on shoot me or this trashed will be dead.” He provoke to Ian.
Raffy chuckle when he saw Mr. Vaughn raise his hand to stop Ian who is eyeing him a death glare.
“Tsk!”
“I know you can’t” Raffy said provokingly to Ian.
“Stop this Raffy, this isn’t what you are, you are blinded by anger and greed.” Mr. Vaughn said
“Then what am I?” Raffy mockingly asked.
“You are a good kid that your father loves even you are adopted.” Mr. Vaughn said as he remembered what kind of a person Raffy before.
“Love?! That old man never give me any affection.” Raffy spat, “he only seeing me when Sander is not there for him!”
“I’m okay with everything even he is treating me like that as long as I have Selena, but what happened?! That bastard Sander took her away from me!” Raffy continued.
“And you! What you did you do? You turn your back on me as well and took that bastard brother of mine side!” He added.
Raffy voice is full of hatred and anger that he kept for a long time, an anger that grew and grew more that made him blinded with anger and greed.
“You bastards had took everything from me and had live well while living me behind and miserable. Specially that brats father!” Raffy said poiniting his gun to Elena.
He went closer to her again and smiled at her insanely before he lead and whispered to her, “you heard that? Your bastard father took everything that is supposedly mine.”
“Don’t remember? How you watched from the table you are hiding, while I’m making your Mom mine and kill her after?” Raffy said and laugh after.
“You saw it all, you watch everything even how I killed your father slowly, but you forgotten it? How could you.”
Elena’s eyes widen and froze from what she heard. Did she saw it? Did she really saw everything about her parents death, Did she really there? Elena asked to herself as her body begin to tremble.
Suddenly she heard screams, and pleading inside her head, the grunt and groan who a man who looks like is beating up, a cry of a woman who is pleading weakly and the silent sobs and cry of a child while calling her parents multiple times.
The sound inside her head is like a feedback from the microphone, its deafening as it rings inside her head that made her grunt, and eventually shout on top of her lungs.
Ian and Mr. Vaughn eyes widen when they heard Elena shouting in pain while shaking her head, after Raffy whispered something to her.
Ian didn’t waste anytime as soon as Mr. Vaughn signaled him while Raffy seemed distracted by watching Elena.
He shoot Raffy, but unfortunately Raffy is aware of there movement, that made him able to dodge the bullet that Ian fired and laugh.
“This two is interrupting the show.” He uttered and turn to fired his gun as well.
The two men was able to dodge it as well and signaled each other how they will save Elena, who is continuously grunting in pain.
As the fire exchange between, Ian Mr. Vaughn to Raffy. The sound that Elena can hear started to have visual, and see everything until the scenes comes fast. She saw the the pictures of her memories from her childhood, with her parents, how did they died, Everything passes on her mind like a slideshow.
I can remember now! She said as soon as she opened her eyes. But her eyes widen, when a group of men came and fire there gun somewhere inside the place they were in.
Elena tried to find where is the men firing their gun, but her eye widen in horror when she saw who is the men firing while she can hear Raffy laughing crazily.
Elena froze in place as she felt her word fell into slow motion as she watched how the men rain Mr. Vaughn and Ian’s side with bullets, while their body bulging everytime the bullet is shooting their bodies nonstop.
She want to scream but she can’t she can’t find her voice, she wanted to run to their side but she can’t because she is being tied on the chair, she wanted to save them but, she can’t do anything but to watched their bodies starting to fall with their shirts soak in blood.
N-N-No! She said to inside her head.
“N-No…” She finally said in whisper when she found her voice.
“No! No! No!” she finally screamed and as she begin to struggle to free herself desperately.
“Ahh!!!” She screamed on top of her lungs.
Elena is doing everything to free herself desperately specially, when she Raffy walking closer to her grandpa and Ian’s body with a victorious smirk.
“Who say I can’t win against you? Now look at yourself.” She heard Raffy said and spit in to their bodies.
Elena feel a unexplainable rage as she saw how Raffy kicked Mr. Vaughn’s body and grab his head and showed it to her with a glittering happiness in his eyes.
“He attacked me first and he really getting into my nerves for such a very long time so.” Raffy said shrugging his shoulder while squatting besides Mr. Vaughn’s body.
Elena glared Raffy sharply, still trying to free herself as her tears flowed freely to her face.
Raffy seemed got pissed the way that Elena is glaring her and stood up with a smirk and point his gun to Mr. Vaughn’s body and shoot it again multiple times that made Elena scream.
“Yeah that’s right, scream all you want and remember this day on how I send that old man and his to hell, and I’m sure your bastard father has already reunited him.” Raffy said grinning from ear to ear.
Elena, can’t feel anything as Raffy started to rain her grandpa’s body with bullets, and as she stared on how her grandpa’s blood flow to the floor. The memories of dead bodies, who bathe in their own blood appeared in her mind.
The screams, and pleads went back to her mind, the burned bodies that she can smell, all of it appeared in her head as it started to ache piercingly.
“A-Ahh!!!” she screamed, that entertained Raffy by her sight.
“Argh!!!” she groan as she tried to let her hand free to hold her head, but she can’t.
Because of Elena’s movement, the chair she is seating fell and so she did, but that didn’t affect her, for her head is aching with crucifying pain, that made her hit her head on to the floor hoping it will subside, but it didn’t.
She can also feel her chest getting breathless that made her gasp for air. She feels like dying from pain, that she feels like going to passed out soon.
“Come on Elena don’t stop me and let me go” she suddenly heard a cold voice said to inside her head while she is still in the middle of dealing with pain.
“Let go and stop hindering me!” the voice said again inside her head.
But Elena didn’t do anything to hinder everything and even Elena, she thought, and suddenly she can feel the air inside the place is getting thin moment by moment.
Elena tried to open her eyes and see Mr. Vaughn and Ian’s body lying just a two meters away from where is she lying.
She tried to reach her hand to the bodies but the pain is making her weak, and she is already gasping for an air.
A lone tear escape from her eyes as her surrounding to eat her conscioussness.
“Grandpa! Ian!” she screamed to her head until her surrounding completely became black with her consciousness.
