Her ebony hair came down in waves as she ran her pale hands through it massaging a head ache away. The waves crashed against the white sand as the lighting illuminates the rain slamming down relentlessly. She brings the light cigarette to her ruby red lips, clashing with her milky white complexion, and inhales deeply only to exhale and leave a cloud of smoke. "Mrs. Turner, the delivery will be here within the hour." Came a voice from behind in the room only light by the lightning periodically. She Stands dropping the rest of the cigarette in the ashtray on the ledge of the balcony "Will you tell Roberts the delivery location has changed. He will meet me by himself in the café a mile from here in 2 hours not within this hour." Her voice came out in a velvety smooth silky manner. "Yes Mrs. Turner." With that being said the male leaves as quickly and quietly as he came. She sighs and walks into the unlighted room turning on the light switch that lights up the huge room with a king bed, and chairs about the massive room. The king bed covered with black lacey material, making it look like the bed was a way to another type of world, a darker one no none return from.

Sitting in the corner of the little coffee shop Mrs. Turner sat with her black nails strumming against taking the table in front of her. The bell on the coffee shop dings and in walks Roberts the light rain causing his dark brown medium length hair to stick to his face as his brown leather jacket clings to his body. He spots her sitting in the corner and makes his way to her sitting across from her. "Well hello beautiful hows your day going so far?" Robert smirks intertwining his hands on the table. "Cut the bullshit Robert Do you have the footage of Gabrielle or not?" Mrs. Turner asks in a snappy yet quite tone. "How is your father in law going to feel about this Torianna? This is a very dangerous game to be playing, it could get you killed or a lot worse and I know you know ow worse than death the things that could happen to you if you get caught. You created over half of the techniques that we use." Roberts eyes soften as he wrings his hands in worry. Calmly Torianna straightens her posture crossing her legs as she thinks back to a few years ago.

As I sit on the rafter above Garrett I quite my breathing so he cant hear me. I stand and perform a backflip off of the rafter landing in front of Garrett in a crouching position, while he processes what happened I spin my leg knocking his off of his feet and onto his ass. "I think Im finally ready to go out and help with the business Mr. Turner Ive been training for years." my sweet young voice bounced off of the concrete walls making, Mr. Turner who really has became like a father to me over these last couple of years chuckle." Oh, my sweet sweet Torianna, you do have a couple of last things you must be trained for before I allow you to handle the family name my dear. Actually, why dont we go ahead and start that training now and see how well you move through it." He says turning and waking to the door. "But I have studied how to get out of kidnapping situation, extreme ones may I add, I can hold my breath for almost 7 minutes, I can untie myself from rope or chain in less than five minutes flat, I am the only female here that has shown Im worth more than just being a whore, I can even put Garrett on his ass, Im stealthy and quite and careful what else could I possibly have left to train for?" I Plea with Mr. Turner. He sighs and places his hand on my shoulder. "You're not cold enough and that will be your next training technic." he presses a button on his phone putting it up to his ear. "She's ready bring her." With in minutes Robert and another male drag in a teenage girl about my age who is screaming and kicking and crying. "What's going on?" I ask in concern. Mr. Turner straightens his posture as he clears his throat. "This is Camelia. Camelia thought she could tell her serpent friends about our next shipment and such, which marks her as a trader. Now my sweet, sweet Torianna that makes her a traitor and its time you moved onto your next training." He places his hand on my shoulder as he places his mouth right beside my ear. In a soft whisper like voice he tells me to put her down. I gasp and turn to look at him as he makes eye contact with me and repeats. "Put her down Torianna, it is her time. This is what happens to traders we dont let anyone cross or tarnish our family name and that means anyone. You do still want the family name, dont you?" I freeze not knowing what to do, these past years all Ive done was train so I could earn this family name, the only family that ever cared about me in the slightest. It wasnt your typical family, they were aggressive and hateful but most importantly they were mine, Mr. Turner never had to accept me much less make me into anything other than a whore, which is the only role for a female with in these walls. Yet he thought I would be able to make a valuable asset to his team, to his family. Her blood curdling screams shake my ear drums as she cries begging for her life to be spared. My face is pale white as I turn and make eye contact with Mr. Turner who is staring at me in anticipation. He hands me a knife smiling at me as my hands shake, he wraps his hands around my shaky hands holding the knife as he he tells me to beging the last of my training, prove to him my loyalties were to him and none other and this was the easiest part of my next training sessions. He hands me a knife, "Show me how much this family name means to you." I take the knife and take a deep breath trying to stop the tears that were clouding my vision. I have to do this, this is my family, the only people who believed that I could amount to anything. I take another deep breath and walk behind the young crying girl being held up as her body attempted to crumple into a heap on the floor. Her tears stained her face as I zooned out not being able to hear her screams and pleas for her life to be spared. I make eye contact with Mr. Turner the only father figure Ive ever had in my life, the only man that wanted me to succeed just as much as I wanted me to. He nods at me and thats all I need to slide the knife across her throat replacing her screams with gurgles and coughs, never breaking eye contact with Mr. Turner. His smile reaches his ears as Gabrielles eyes widen from his spot at the door behind his father. He covers his ghostly pale face making eye contact with my expressionless face. Noticing I was no longer making eye contact with him Mr. Turner turns to see Gabrielle standing in disbelief and shock. "Gabrielle you can come in, this is the next step of your training as well." Gabrielle turns and runs out down the hall. I stand still in shock with the knife remaining in my grasp. I feel a hand caress my face and I look up coming back to reality to see Mr. Turner looking at me with pride as he wipes some blood from my hand taking the knife into his possession. I smile through the milk-livered tears as best as I can. "That's my girl." Mr. Turner says as he kisses my forehead and turns to walk away. "Garret go find Gabrielle so he can begin his next session in training as well, and Robert take my sweet Torianna to go get clear minded for tonights assessment over her and Gabrielle." He exits going god knows where as Robert grabs my arm pulling me from the body at my feet. "Garret have Xian clean this mess up." Robert says as we finally exit the room. He pulls me to the meditation room. He opens the door to reveal a, spacious room filled with different plants and see through colored fabrics coming down from the arcs in the room. The entire room was covered in a layer of smoke bringing forth the smell of the scent burners they have in here. Robert pulls me to the middle of the room and cups my face. "I know this is a lot little Tor I never wanted you to have to deal with this but due to this family name it was inevitable. You handled that so well by the way a lot better than I think Gabrielle will, did you see the way he ran?" Robert asks as he gently pulls us into a sitting position." I wanted to run Rob, I was so scared, and that girl was so terrified. Her screams and pleas still echo in my head" I whisper putting my head down looking at my lap. " There was so much blood everywhere." I cry. "But you regardless of your fear you followed through with what you were told to do. Tor you are the only female ever to even get close to becoming a part of this family name, the only female to ever even receive a shot. Tor, I know its hard but thats why he chose you because he looked at you and seen a strong resilient beautiful girl who could help carry on his legacy. You are paving the paths for females to have a spot in this house that isn't on their knees or back, be proud of that." Robert says lifting my head to make eye contact as tears made their way down my face. "He has been the only person to think I was worth anything. He saved me from so much so why is it so hard to do what is asked of me? Why did Gabrielle look at me like I'm a monster?" I ask as I lay my head in his lap and cry for what I want to become. "Gabrielle has always had a problem with this house and how things are done and been overly sensitive because of his mother and for him to see a female doing things that all his life hes seem men do is intimidating especially since you're only 11 years old and can do everything a fully trained member here can do. Now back to our training session sit up and begin meditation to clear your thoughts."..

"Oh Robert, he'll see that I am the one that was born to take his position. This just shows how much more I deserve it than Gabrielle who doesn't meet up to the reputation that must be held by this family and how much more loyal I am than his own blood. I Deserve this business, Gabrielle doesn't have the guts to do what must be done in this line of work, hes too soft and always has been". Robert runs his hand across his face and sighs. " Please be careful, most of us are with you but that doesn't mean that this can't end very badly for you. To most of us you're our sister, child, mother figure. The changes you've brought since you've been here has already pushed this family so far. The only female that's respected in this entire operation. We're so proud of you and your dedication." He slides a usb across the table to her hands. She grasps it smiles holding his hand before standing up. "Thank you, Robert this means a lot." She places her hand on his shoulder for a moment before continuing to leave the coffee shop.
