Chapter 3: The Memory

Lars POV

I was looking in the eye of one of the TEKKEN Force branch member, Nina Williams. She was basically being a bitch to me because she doesn't trust me. Her sister is Anna Williams who wasn't here. We were the last two remaining people at the bar. Except the bartender of course. She subconsiciously places her hand to a knife while I did the same to a fork. I gripped it slowly but did the same and we stared which seemed like an eternity. Finally she made a move by swiping her knife when I blocked with the fork. I got up and tried to stab her when she dodged it. We kepted going on for a while when I saw an opening. I took the chance and I slashed halfway through her left stomach. She blocked at the area when she realized I feinted. I smirked and stabbed her right stomach. What I didn't imagine was her left hand was slowly coming up to my cheek and leaned in. She closed the gap between us and kissed me. I was surprised by a few moments when I saw her right hand quickly go up and slashed my left eye. I fell to the ground holding my eye and screaming in pain. Blood oozed from the wound and all I remembered was black, somebody saying 'good bye' and the bartender coming to me.

When I woke up I saw fires, heard screams and cries. My eyes widened when I saw my mother calling me. I got up and tried to go to her but she just keeps getting farther. The screams and cries were getting louder and louder each step I make. I tripped on a rock and tried to get up but somebody or something was stopping me. I tired calling her but I can't. Then the whole place changed. I saw myself when I was young. About five or six years old. I saw my father talking to someone. The man pulled out a gun and shot my father. My eyes widen when I remembered what happened. I was taken in an orphanage when my former boss shot my dad. I killed him for revenge. I feel tears coming out but I try to stop it from going out. I collapse on the ground unknowingly and I shut my eyes.

I woke up with a start. I was sweating pretty badly judging from the wetness of my body and the bed. I sighed and touched my eye. I still remember how I got this like a it was yesterday. I sighed again and looked at the clock. Five Forty... Well I'm awake. No chance on going to sleep again. I got up, showered, got dressed, ate, went to the library to read or go to the game room to play some bacarrat. I waited until it was seven and went back to the lounge to greet the Bosconovitch's. I was surprised to see that only Alisa was there. She was reading what I think was The Hobbit. Well, judging by the thickness, it's a high probability. She noticed me and smiled. I smiled and sat down next to her.

"Whatcha reading?" I asked. "The Hobbit by J.R.R Tolkien. Why?" She answered and asked. "Nothing just checking." I replied and got up. "I'm going to survey the area. I'll see you later." I said. She smiled and nodded. I left the room without a word. I checked the gym, game room, garden, library, the guest rooms, Dr. Bosconovitch's room and Alisa's Room. The last room I didn't check was the basement. I got there and opened the door before getting hit at the back by some blunt object.

Cliffhanger! I'm that bad. Next chapter should be up by Thursday at best. Sunday will have two or three chapter up.
