Hello, lovely readers and other people of the internet! I know I'm being dreadfully slow with my updates, and I don't really have any excuses for such things because the extremely lame "School" Bullshit… You know, normal stuff. I do, however, promise that I'll be better about posting more frequently… As soon as I find a person to remind me to work on my writing. But enough of that! Let's get to the good stuff!
It wasn't long after the fight at the club that the grunts that worked around the place began to recognize me… And not only that, they seemed to fear me. It was a wonderful feeling, really, knowing that everybody was fearing me again. I had lost that layer of weakness and sadness that came from losing my Roman.
"So, Neo, what will you do when you're done training here?" Junior had asked me one night while we were fixing the dance floor. He himself had a slight hint of fear in his voice, and that satisfied me.
"I'm not sure, really… I believe I have two options in front of me… Find Cinder and ask for her help again or find the girl who did this to my Roman." I muttered, venom dripping from my voice. My tone, of course, scared Junior a bit more and he took a step back.
"That Cinder chick… You have any idea where she would be?" He asked, trying to keep the fact that he was shaking out of his voice, but he wasn't exactly doing a good job. I slowly nodded, my eyes going a dull white.
"Neo, I want you to stay quiet while we're here… She doesn't take kindly to newcomers… At first. But I think she'll like you. You're just as crazy as Tyrian… But you aren't nearly as annoying." Cinder had told me. Once the meeting had ended, I understood more than I ever thought possible… And I knew why Cinder wanted the power.
"... You okay, kiddo? You look kinda sick." Junior asked, waving a hand in front of my face.
"I'm fine, Junior… I know what I need to do…"
Sorry it was short, and to my favorite reader, Lil Lexy, here's your cookie! *throwing cookies everywhere*
