He march through the front door like a man on a mission and he was on a mission.

To catch or preferably; murder.

He wouldn't mind killing a few more dirt if it means he can save a few more lives. The killing was a part of him. He lives and breathes in blood. Every single day.

He saw the man leaning on the door trying to hear something from the other side and he didn't even hesitate before kicking him and he went tumbling to the floor.

From the gasp of the man he knows he looks like a murderer ready for execution. He went forward sitting on his body as he punched the man over and over. He dragged his body through the front door as he put a small fight but with a muscle like his (train to kill), the man could only fight for so long.

He throws the man on the floor of his living room where the said neighbour was sitting. He watches her flinching at the sight of the heavy man and he can see exactly what her thoughts were. If she, who is all bone and not meat were to go against a man this heavy and a man blinded with his lust- she would have lost. The chances of winning were low. Very low that it made him furious.

"T-This was him?" Her voice was so low almost like a whisper and he saw his sister snickering and her body immediately shrinking away from their prying eyes

His mother joined the scene maybe after he left. While she stands to the side accessing the situation with a thoughtful look, his sister was openly showing her dislikes. He didn't like that one bit.

"Yes". His voice came out gravel maybe from the lack of sleep or from the fact that he feels the need to kill this man

She took a shaking breath, "Why?"

He raise an eyebrow not sure if she was genuinely asking or pretending. He can't exactly trust a stranger even if his instincts told him. He was trained to find betrayal from anyone around him- no matter how close or far they are from him.

"Do you want to know the answer to that question?" It was almost a challenge in his voice

She gulped, "No. I mean, why did he want to d-do that with me? I didn't do anything wrong".

"You think they go after people who did something wrong?"

She shakes her head, "I know they go after innocent. But, was it because I live alone?"

He kicks the man's legs making him whimper and he holds back the urge to say to 'man up' because the man was going to project his 'ultimate power' on her tonight. But a kick and a few punches were making him cry.

Disgusting.

"Speak". He commanded, "Or I won't let you walk out of this place on your legs". Just to emphasize, he placed his good foot on his leg twisting in a way to cause enough pain, "Don't doubt me".

"Ok. Ok". The man wailed and he grunted, "She is the one who is offering services to men. Everyone knows what she is. Why is she pretending to be holy?"

"See". His sister jumped, "I told you she is dirtying our place but you defended her. Look at what he is saying".

He didn't move his eyes away from her expressions because he knows he can read her. With his training, that was the easiest thing to do. He watches the confusion in her eyes visible at the man and his sister's declarations. He watches the clear signs that she has no idea what this is about.
