All it took was one bullet to survive or die later on. It was a simple tiny thing to end or rescue a life, it was between hell or heaven, life, and death and it terrified me to know that any moment Levy might die in front of me or I would die in front of him. I looked into every man's eyes and I found the traumatized dark life that they used to live which made them the way they were now.

Jitters were all I felt when my hand brought out that piece that made a miracle or killed a life. I was about to be a killer for the one I loved when just minutes before, I used to be a normal high school chick that studied her ass off to graduate, I had normal fears that were nothing compared to the fears I had now.

Levy single-handedly killed two men in one shot when they ran to get to him, I screamed when another man tried to punch Levy but my scream actually saved him because he kicked the man's face when he was done with the two men, hurling him to a tree. It was the first time I had observed the monster that reached out in Levy's eyes that made him want to kill until he died. It struck the paranoid feelings in me when his arms were choking the man when the only one left was tried to get to me, my shaky hand raised the gun to him and he stopped when his eyes met the easy weapon to die by.

That was enough distraction for the man when Levy shot him from behind so easily that it was like a play toy to him, the bodies all sprawled with blood like a killer graveyard for his victims, the bright garden that was once in the woods beside my first house was gone and it was replaced by mud and disgusting trails of wastes.

"You don't have to shoot anyone today, baby," Levy soothed me with a chaste kiss before pulling away and said, "I'm not ready to see you shoot anyone and become a killer, I want you to be the good girl I know, I gave you the gun for self defence and nothing more than that," he whispered in my ear with another kiss but this time on the cheek, calming my jumpy nerves.

It made me proud that Levy never wished his girlfriend to ever shoot someone, that only meant that he wanted me the way I was and not because he wanted to change me into him.

We had calculating eyes, trying to spot my aunt from the ruins of the house as a result from the fire that happened twelve years ago, we moved before that but we did hear about the fire that was caused by the previous tenants that rented the house after we left. Dad thought he could mend my mom's heart by moving places but it wasn't any good, he found out when Mr. Clay came back into their lives and my mom was attached to him again but the fact that dad hid it from me was painful enough.

I tried to analyze each area and think of the possibilities of my aunt's whereabouts but it reached to a dead end, nobody was here and my hallucinations were proved false until there was a bullet that targeted the tree that was near Levy's head.

Levy's eyes were filled with fright when his eyes met someone behind me, her arm slithered across my stomach as she pushed me back to her body and her other hand had a pointy weapon in front of my forehead.

"You both surprised me very much, I didn't think you would actually believe her hallucinations," my eyes widened at the fact that she knew about my disorder, "yes, I know because Dr. Alana helped me and thought I was your mother," she whispered, that was all it took for my body to collapse but she held me tightly, refusing my body's response.

"Don't touch her, your problem is with me," Levy seethed as he glowered intensely at my aunt. That only made her press the gun into my forehead more.

"Oh, what a rebellious boyfriend you have, I wish that you will enjoy the show of your precious girl being shot in front of you," she almost pulled the trigger when my fingers were long enough to grasp the gun inside my pocket since her grip was around my stomach, her fingernails pricked my skin and I gasped in pain, the tears welled in my eyes at the harsh impact.

With success, I pulled out my gun and pressed the trigger to her leg, making her shout and let me go. I didn't hesitate as my shaky hand holding the gun pressed to her scalp when she kneeled down in terror at her bloodied toes.

"It's time that you die once and for all, you are the reason why so many innocent lives were dead, you used them for your game and you will pay the price now," I whispered into her ear when I crouched down with the gun still on her scalp.

Something made me stop, I didn't know what it was when her eyes turned wide and fearful, it reminded me of the girl I was before: vulnerable and weak.

"Please, don't hurt me," she whimpered as her eyes turned as pure as the emerald color in her irises showing pleas that I had never seen in anyone's eyes before.

Levy pulled me up and replaced my gun with his.

"Any last confessions to make?" Levy asked as his finger was on the trigger. I was dazed by the look that she gave me, it was like I was hypnotized by a spell or something alluring.

"I was more than happy that your dad died, I finally got my revenge." was the last thing she said before Levy shot her.
