Hi!
I don't know if this story is going to be a one-shot or a few different short stories. Read and review!
Disclaimer: I didn't create ABC's Revenge.
"When everything you love has been stolen from you, sometimes all you have left is revenge."
- Emily Thorne
She looked at the box in front of her. It was a wooden box, one she'd had for a long time. It held in its depths everything dear to her, everything that meant anything to her. She opened it again, hesitantly, and pulled out the most worn photo of them all. Tears filled her eyes and she immediately dropped it back into the box, slamming the lid shut. But shutting the wooden box couldn't shut out the memories….
'DADDY!'
She heaved a gasp. No. No, she couldn't break. She mustn't break. Not now, not when she was so close…
'You okay?'
The voice startled her, even though she had been training for months not to get distracted. That accent, though, was so familiar. She frowned and she felt the anger begin to build.
She immediately spun on her heel, her right leg arcing upwards. Her foot slammed into a large palm.
'Were you really going to try that on me?' His 'superior' smirk annoyed her so much.
She sighed. 'I think you already know the answer to that question.' She let her foot fall down again, the sole of her leather boot hitting the concrete with a sharp bang.
'You know I'm smarter than that.'
'I don't care.' She turned again and continued what she was doing – packing.
'Where are you going?'
'The Hamptons.'
'What? No, let me come with you.' He placed a gentle hand on her shoulder but she shrugged it off.
'No.'
'You can't just go….'
'Yet that's exactly what you did, isn't it?' She flipped around to face him, the venom clear in her voice, eyes narrowed. 'Isn't it, Aidan?'
'But- '
'I told you to wait. I told you. You promised you'd wait for me. But you took off without another word.'
'Emily…'
'No. I don't want your excuses.'
'Emily, please -'
'Leave me alone, okay? I have enough to deal with.'
'Emily, if you just let me - '
'Are you ready, Miss Thorne?'
Takeda was waiting for her. Time to go.
'Yes. I am.' She glared at Aidan one last time, daring him to say something. He sighed in defeat and left the room.
Emily Thorne glanced around the karate themed room for the last time. She wouldn't be coming back her for a long time. She had to make a few people pay first.
'It should only take a few hours for you to reach the Hamptons.' Takeda said quietly as they jogged through the building. 'You will be there soon.' They reached the tarmac.
Emily looked at the plane in front of her, a small knowing smile appearing on her face. Just a few hours between her and revenge.
'I can't wait.'
Hope you enjoyed!
