Holding her gun she climbed the stairs, headed to that room, where the d*vil lurks. She walked mighty and fearless, her eyes' lethal and deadly.

"What are you doing here?" She immediately asked when she felt another presence behind her, she didn't even bother to look at him.

Bang*

The leaders of Il Numero Sanguinario, once untouchable, ran for their lives. But there was no escape, they are there to send them to the gates of h*ll.

Bang* the first was impaled on the railings, and fell from the second floor.

Bang* the second fell on the floor, his own gun shoved in his mouth. The trigger pulled by unseen hand.

Bang* the third begged for mercy, but mercy isn't even in their vocabulary.

"To protect you." He said aiming his gun in front, killing whoever comes her way.

"I don't need protection." Sagot n'ya. Kahit madilim ay naaninag n'ya pa rin ang mapaglarong ngisi sa mga labi ng binata.

"Yeah, she doesn't need protection, they need protection from her." Another voice beside her. Mahinang natawa ang dalawa habang walang tigil pa rin sa pagpapaputok ng baril habang s'ya ay patuloy lang sa paglalakad. Walang takot, ni kaba.

The enemies fell on the floor one by one. Blood cascading from their forehead, their mouth and some bathing in their own blood.

*Bang *bang *bang

And the last survivor, Don Hidalgo, ran to the balcony, desperate to escape. But they all knew, hinding hindi n'ya hahayaang makatakas ang lalaki.

Tres swiftly grabbed the man, and in a one swift move, Don Hidalgo is already kneeling before her. Don Hidalgo, the head of Il Numero Sanguinario. Il Numero Sanguinario was not as powerful as that man, but they were just as ruthless. They were loyal dogs of Il Numero Nero, enforcing the will of that man. They are sinners, cruel and ruthless. Hindi na sila tatanggapin sa impeyerno. Il Numero Sanguinario a ruthless criminal empire will fall in her own hands.

At higit sa lahat ng kababuyan nila— Il Numero Sanguinario were involved to what happened that night, that bloody night. They were the ones who hunted down the survivors— the ones laughed as they dragged screaming children into the night. Ramdam n'ya ang pag agos ng pulang likido sa dahil sa marahas na pagkakakuyom ng kanyang kamay.

At ngayon, maniningil na s'ya ng utang.

Now, they'd be the first to die.

"SINO KAYO?! HINDI N'YO BA 'KO KILALA?!"

Silence.

"SINO KAYO?! WHO ARE YOU?! YOU CAN'T KILL ME! PAGSISIHAN N'YO ITO! YOU F*CKERS YOU CAN'T KILL ME!"

She touched her ear. So noisy! Kaya mabilis na isinaksak n'ya ang ulo ng hawak n'yang baril sa bibig nito.

"HHMMP! HHMMP!"

"I.can.f*cking.kill.you.Don.Hidalgo." Her voice dropped even lower. She spoke darkly—slow, quiet, like her words carried something heavier than bullets. Binawi n'ya ang baril nguso ng baril sa bibig nito at sinenyasan ang binatang buksan ang ilaw.

"W-WHO.... WHO ARE YOU?" he asked, his eyes landing on her.

“You don’t have to do this. Whatever they’re paying you, I can triple it.” he tried to stand up, pero mabilis na kinalabit n'ya ang gatilyo at tumama iyon sa tuhod ng Don.

"Aaaah!" Don Hidalgo grunted in pain, as he fell back on his knees.

"I didn't allow you to stand Don Hidalgo." She said teasingly.
