Her eyes searched the darkened streets trying to find that place, the one she heard had so many stories behind, the barber shop, as the brunette haired female stopped her eyes glanced upwards to see the barber shop but it wasn't open, it was decaying with the boarded up windows, a soft sigh escaped her soft lips as she walked onwards towards the pie shop that was open, there were so many stories behind this shop too with the famous meat pies and the smell of death that came from the chimney, her hand reached out and she pushed the door only to be faced with a face with a grin that reached ear to ear
'My first customer'
The woman beamed as she grabbed hold of the brunettes arm and lead her over to a table, pushing her down into it so she was sitting down, the brunette's light blue eyes looked around the place there was defiantly an eerie presence that was probably why there weren't many customers or it may have been the fact this woman's pies look dreadful as she placed one in front of her, the brunette reached out and slowly picked up taking a tiny bite even she had to spit it out on the floor as a cockroach climbed out of the pastry
'So what you here for? Not seen you around'
The same woman asked as she brought over a bottle of whiskey placing it on the table in front of the brunette, she picked up and poured it into a small glass then drank the liquid her face giving a look of disgust, she wasn't one for drinking whiskey
'Me? I am here looking for my father'
The brunette asked and watched the female froze; she slowly turned to look at the brunette with her own brown eyes wide as if she was scared of something, the woman gave a small gulp
'W…What's your name?'
The woman asked with her eyes still wide, the brunette raised her eyebrow at the fact the woman looked worried or scared
'My name is Scarlette Todd'
The brunette mentioned she didn't know what was so bad about her name or why the woman was looking so scared, to be honest Scarlette had no idea who her father was all she knew was that as soon as he left prison he met a woman and they had a one night stand so in a way Scarlette was an accident, she should of never been created but she still wanted to find out who her father was, with her mother sending her off to an orphanage
'Todd my dear?'
The woman asked as if she couldn't believe it but she knew the truth, what her own mother did, what Scarlette's father did and she was going to show her where her father was, she took her hand before leading Scarlette down the stairs to what looked like a basement, the woman pushed open the door and the sight that was in front of them caused Scarlette to scream and a hand placed over her mouth, there in the middle of the floor were two decaying bodies one kneeling and other one laying in the arms, tears streamed down Scarlette's face as she turned and ran upstairs, she really didn't want to see that but she knew the body kneeling was her father she had a funny feeling in her stomach. Sitting back at the table she placed her head in her hands and began to sob softly there was a part of her mind that knew what to do either get revenge or carry on with what he was doing.
