(Short episode)
Sekani
I washed my face as I stared at the mirror, my dad is kind of right you know
I should be strong and bold like my dad, I should be able to defend myself when the need arises
But how can I even fight with a gun or a dagger, they are my nightmares
Every night I go to bed I dream about a lady being torn to pieces with a dagger by her fellow woman
I was just 4 then, I watched how a mans full intestines were brought out with a gun
I watched a real bloody fight, everyday of my life I wish night will never come
I wish night would also be day.
My dad knows the dangers ahead, that is why he is teaching me how to fight
Its time I fight my fears, what if I am alone with my mom and they attack?
I should be able to fight back right? But I am so weak, I am not strong for this
I can't even hurt a fly, but here I am with my dad teaching me how to kill a full human being.
I looked at the clock, it was 5pm, the day is still a little bit bright
I wore a black t shirt and a black jogger, I wore my stocking and my slipper and climbed downstairs
The maids were cleaning up, I walked through the corridor into the garden
There were lights everywhere, the security still standing in their positions
I picked a knife from the table by my right
There are different types of knife in it
And at the back were guns hanged on the wall, a cold shiver ran through me as I held the knife
I stood in a straight position, I was very far away from the target
I stood at an at ease position as I aimed at the target, it struck it right at the middle
I took a deep sigh as I stared at the target.
What if that target was a human? He or she must have died and I will cry my eyes out
I was still lost in thoughts when someone tapped me from behind
It was Louis, the head of the security
He is tall, huge, handsome sweet and caring, he is 25 year old
We lived in the same house since I was 4, my dad brought him in and trained him personally
But we have only talked to each other once, its the rule my dad gave me
I don't talk with the maids or the body guards, I only order them or send them on errand
"Hi Louis" I said in a shaky voice
"You know how to handle a knife very well, you are good at aiming but your hands are shaking" he said with a smile
Sekani: really? I should be shaking because I am hurting the poor doll
Louis: its just a lifeless doll
Sekani: don't you fell guitly at all? For killing innocent people?
Louis: no, I don't
Sekani: how many people have you killed?
Louis: like hundreds of people, I can't even count
Sekani: well, I think its not fair, they are also humans
Louis: Sekani… we live in a cruel world, its either you fight or you die pleading, there is no love in the city
Sekani: I wanna be like my dad, without emotions or sympathy
Louis: then you have to start now, I know you don't wanna kill but a single drop of tear in your eyes with pains mixed up all together can make you kill
Sekani: that will never happen
Louis: a day will come where you will be forced to choose between killing an enemy or letting a loved one die
Sekani: stop it, I said it will never happen
I tried to brace myself up as I bit my lips
"Can you turn on the engines? Make all the targets move fast coming towards me in speed" I said with a smile
"Am sorry but I can't do that" Louis replied
"Why?"
"Because the targets are having blades and you might get hurt"
"Just do as I say" I replied raising my voice a little bit
The engines were switched on
I held the gun as I started shooting at the hundreds of targets coming towards me
I shot till the last one which was right at my face
The blade scratched my right hand as I screamed slightly.
Louis shot it before I could raise my face.
I held my hand as I stared at the little amount of blood dropping out of it
"Good job daughter" I heard a voice say as I turned back to see who it was
It was my dad
Dad: you are proving me wrong with time, I am proud of you.
I will be teaching you how to box and fight with knife tomorrow
Go get a rest
Sekani: yes papa
I smiled as I was about to walk away
"Your smiles never change, you are always happy in the day" my dad said
I turned back as I laughed so hard
We all bursted into laughter
Then we sudennly heard a scream from the mansion
My dad and Louis carried guns as the ran towards the mansion
I followed suit with a gun in my hand
"No matter what happens don't come out" my dad screamed as he kept running.
I didn't listen, I followed him running.
I almost caught up with them when we heared a bomb sound
It was coming from my mom's room
