From all the times Shiva sat down in the old sofa, that one was the most important and decisive without knowing. But in that moment she was in shock and didn't want to talk, she could heard the other ones talking but didn't want to say anything about it. She was just thinking in finish all that.

"Why I'm not surprised he did this?"

In the cheap apartment in one of the worse places in the city, five men were there alongside the girl in the sofa. She was wearing a skirt and a beautiful white shirt that already have blood on it.

"To be honest, I'm surprised."

Two of them were walking around, one was whom asked that after a silence from his friends. He was the son of an Israeli family that arrived some years ago to the city. His name was Azrail and has some piercings in his mouth and some other in just one of his ears. He was always wearing some gloves without fingers so everyone could see the wings tattooed in them.

"Why are you surprise, Perttu?" Azrail asked as he decided to kick a chair where the other guy was sitting. "He is an asshole, we all know."

"Indeed he is, but he looked really in love with her." Answered the Finnish man.

He had long hair in a ponytail and wearing a vest which could pass as a classic vest from a musician but was full of designs about heavy metal bands, some other symbols and a big black Cygnus.

"You are stupid." Azrail kept talking and sighed. "But I bet not even the queen thought in this."

As these two were talking, a third man was sitting at side of Shiva, cleaning the blood from his mouth and the one from her cheeks and eyebrows. She was still in silence, without crying or without saying anything. She was indeed shocked about what happened. She just moved when closed her legs a bit more when the man touched them.

"Sorry, queen, but you have some open wounds in your knees."

"Just be worried about the face, Eren." A fourth man was seeing the rain hitting the window. "I don't think she wants to be touched now."

The man called Eren nodded and kept cleaning Shiva's face. He was wearing a simple green shirt but his pants were used jeans with holes and some chains here and there. His hair was short to the shoulders and a little ponytail made him look innocent. But all that was because he just finished working in the store close to that apartment.

"We need to do something about this." The man left the window to come close were Perttu was drinking some beer and hit the table. "This can't be!"

"Oh please, Andy." Azrail said almost laughing. "Are you going to show moral?"

"He hit Shiva, Pegasus." Perttu said a bit angry too. "Look at her!"

"And?!"

"He almost rape her!" Andrzej, whom was normally called Andy or Dragon, took Azrail's neck. "Do you think this is just fine?"

"C'mon!" Azrail laughed. "We had hit, steal and murder people."

"But we don't rape." A fifth voice could be heard. "That's just… disgusting."

Andrzej leaved the other guy in the floor after push him. He just moved to sit in front of the girl and Eren who was being very meticulous cleaning her blood and wounds.

They were in a little living room with some old sofas and a dirty carpet. Some more steps and there was the main door, and the only division between the kitchen and the living room was a bar. Indeed was a tiny apartment because even the bed was taking a lot of place in the back of the sofa where Shiva was sit.

"Well, I admit is true…" Azrail said in the end. "But we can't do anything about it. Django is now getting drunk in a bar and we are here… taking care of his girlfriend." He sighed. "All the fun to him."

"I don't think you understand all this, Azrail." The man sited in the kitchen's bar said with a smile. "It is not the fact he attack and molested Shiva, the fact and important point here is something you can't see easily."

"Ah, and you can totally see, don't you?"

"What did you say, asshole?" Andrzej rose up to throw a punch to Azrail, but stopped in the moment someone asked it.

"Brother, don't use your energy on him." The other man said as he rose up and began to walk slowly. "He is just angry and blind." He laughed. "Not like me, but you understand."

Sunglasses and the clothes, those two things were the difference between Andrzej and Jan. While the first one had a black shirt and some red pants, Jan was using some elegant suit. He sound very calm when sat down where his brother was before.

"How are you, Shiva?" he asked in the end.

All of them were in silence, even Eren stopped cleaning to take some cotton pads. It was just an excuse, because he didn't want to see Shiva's face. Of course she wasn't fine, but the simple question made her open the mouth… and then cry.

"She is fine." Azrail said in a sarcastic way.

"Can you just shut up your fucking mouth?" Perttu gave a step to push him against the wall.

"Shiva…" Jan kept talking as he removed his sunglasses. "This hasn't being the first time, isn't?" the girl just move her head to let them know it wasn't.

All that year at his side and decided never to talk. She was always afraid, she was the closest to Django when he decided to murder someone or make some illicit business so she knows how dangerous he could be. But still, she could remember all from the begging.

She could remember the day she arrived to the city alongside his old brother Agora to live now with his uncle Shaka. She was so curious about his job and the city that finished knowing about the Black Saints; it was a gang group that was famous to arrive to any place with their motorcycles and make a terrible chaos on it. But what she liked most was the leader; he looked so strong and powerful she didn't thought twice before seduce him and find a place at his side. Now was regretting all that, the power indeed push her to do that a year ago.

But every month the real Django would show. First, she knew he would be selling illegal substance in some bars, then know about how this group was more murders with a low cost than just a motorcycle gang. And in the end, she would receive the terrible treat Django was used to give to his lovers. But she decided to keep everything in silence because the fear and… something else.

The five men who were now with her were named "The Black Four" between their own team but outside everyone would call them "The Four Celestial Black Kings." They moved a lot of business around the city; north, south, east and west. And the fifth was important, he was a lawyer that cleaned everything in a legal form. All of them decided to have a surname, they were the Pegasus, the Cygnus, the Andromeda and the twins choose the Dragon as their emblem, and all of them could be known because their tattoos with those mythical animals or constellations, except Jan who decided never touch his skin and try to look as a normal civilian. They were loyal to Django, but since the girl arrived to the team they would show loyalty to her. Wasn't hard to do, she earn his hearts in different way and looked like Django was really in love with her to even tell them to call her "Queen" and not just Shiva.

"I don't think this should keep like this." Jan said as he moved to kneel in front of the girl and hold her hands. "I think we should do something."

"What?" Perttu asked to then sigh tired and sat down again with his beer in hand. "Do you want to punish Django? Excuse me, but that's impossible and you know it, Jan."

"Maybe?" Eren said to begin to try to close Shiva's wounds with a tiny needle. "He has being doing some stupid things for us. Don't you remember that business from a week ago? Django said no to the deal and began another terrible battle between that north gang and us!"

"I told him to say yes and just add some more points to the deal…"

The five man kept in silence when Shiva talked. Jan smiled to then explain why she had the reason, it would be easier for their business but then she cried a bit more.

"That's why he hit me today… he said I shouldn't give my opinion."

Perttu sighed a bit tired and throw the empty bottle to the ground.

"And then, we shouldn't forget the fact that five of our men are now in jail." He rose up to hit the bottle and sat at side of Shiva in a very lazy way. "This stupid man is making us go to the ruin. I still thinking Django is selling himself."

One more time, everyone was in silence and could be just heard the sobs of Shiva and some little yells she did because the needle trespassing her skin. She then kept in silence and muttered something. No one listened, but Eren and Jan asked what she said. In the moment Eren finished with the wounds in her face, she showed it. All that time she was seeing to the floor, making Eren's work even harder, but now was showing it to the other Black Saints. His eyes had a deep blue colour and now were shinning because the tears, she had wounds over his eyebrow, his lips and even part of his nose and cheek without even counting the ones on her legs.

"He is selling you all…" Shiva said in the end with fear in the eyes. "Django is giving all the Black Saints to the police, because he knows this groups is going down. He is afraid to be in jail." She began to cry and covered her face. "Please, don't tell him I said this."

"Are you kidding me?" Andrzej asked surprised.

"What?" Azrail was in the same expression. "Shiva, what are you saying is very serious. You are saying Django is selling his own gang and is a traitor!"

"It is true…" she kept crying. "I'm sorry guys… I tried my best…"

Perttu held her shoulder to make her show her face.

"Your best?"

"I tried to save you from all the others ones. I always made him think you were busy so… he couldn't sell you… not yet."

Everyone was again in silence. The rain in the window and the sound of some cars or people yelling in the street was the background of that minute.

"We need to do something about that bastard."

Andrzej didn't hesitate saying those words. He look to the other ones, they were processing everything but all of them knew it was true. Not just because Django was a traitor, but because he did something terrible to their queen.

"We should give him to the police before he does that to us." Eren said.

"No, the police will leave him. He is helping them, remember?" Perttu answered quickly. "What about just throw him down? Tell him he isn't our boss anymore."

"Don't be stupid." Azrail kept the talking as he came close to them and be in the back of Shiva. "He has some others and they will find us. And remember, the police. You said it, he is with them. Do you think they will care anymore? They will just send an S.W.A.T shit and take us all."

"Then?" Eren asked.

"We should kill him."

The three man turned to see Andrzej. The girl was cleaning her tears and Jan was just listening as he decided to move Eren and sit at side of Shiva. He was holding her hand and let her lay his head on his shoulder. Andrzej smiled.

"What? I think is the only good idea." He finished.

"Kill him?" Perttu said. "The four of us can't kill him in the same time, will be very suspicious and the whole gang will be against us."

"And one of us can't fight against him." Eren sighed without seeing them. "He is too strong and always carrying his weapons."

"Then… I don't know, but we should…"

"Poison." A voiced interrupted to the Black Cygnus.

Even if she was still crying, the words went out very easy. None of the thought about it, but now the question was that the poison was still very easy to find in his blood. The silence was again there, but finished when Eren decided to clean Shiva's legs to help her with the wounds. Thanks to this, she began to moan for the pain.

"What if we doesn't kill him?" Jan talked when Shiva was almost fainting in his arms. "What if… his own delicate health kill Django?"

No one asked, they just saw him as he was crazy. Of course, he couldn't see this but the silence was everything. The others knew he was smarter, but didn't imagine Django dying for something as natural as his health. Even if he used drugs and was an alcoholic, he never acted like sick or anything in his life. It was something hard to see and understand.

"That has no sense." Azrail decided to talk in the end.

"Oh, I had read about the poisons and some of them aren't easy to find." Jan kept talking as he hold closer to Shiva. "And some of them can create heart attacks with just a little help."

"You read?" Azrail asked.

"Braille, idiot." The Cygnus didn't hesitate to answer.

"Yes, he is right." Eren smiled. "I had heard about it." but then his smiled removed to laugh a bit. "Do you realized we are planning to murder our boss?"

"Our boss…" the twin who wasn't with Shiva then noticed something. "Who will be the boss then? I mean, I do accept to take the responsibility of kill him. But we can't leave a whole gang alone."

Shiva took a deep breath and moved to let Eren do better his job. But she wanted to say something.

"Why don't you choose between you, guys?" she said. "You are smart, strong and know how to move this city easily."

"I would be a good boss." Azrail smiled.

"What? You are just an asshole." The Finnish man laughed to then take the beer bottle and throw it to him. "I should be the boss. I control the north of this city, I need more power to keep those other gangs above us."

"Oh, please…" Eren said almost as a mutter.

"What? Do you think you are better?" Andrzej asked.

"I don't know, do you think YOU are better?" Eren asked almost forgetting his job over Shiva's legs.

They were begging to yell to each other and almost begging with a fight, when they could heard a hit in the floor. The four of them remain in silence when Jan was using his cane to make sound. He was now stand up and fixing his suit.

"None of you can be the boss." He said wearing now the sunglasses.

"Brother? Do you want to be the boss?" the twin asked.

"Of course not. Don't you understand? We five are too powerful in our own ways. We need someone who is smart enough to mix our qualities and make this gang go up again." He was explained as he walked slowly to the back of the sofa where Shiva was sitting. "Someone who has a vision and knows about this business. Tell me, any of you guys know how to make a deal with big bosses?" none of them answered. "Of course not. Do you know the real prizes of everything we sell? Do you know the main points and the perfect times to do it? No, you don't. I don't even know because I'm busy fixing all that." He then smiled to place a hand over Shiva's shoulder. "She does."

The four other man was surprised, and Shiva remain in silence without seeing them to the eyes. She, for a moment, felt nervous. Her plan wasn't going so well.

"A woman?" Azrail said. "What she knows about all we do?"

"She had being with Django all this time." Andrzej said with a smile. "She has being in the meetings, in the parties and even when Django was selling everything."

"And don't forget she was his girlfriend." Perttu said quickly knowing Shiva would appreciate he used "was" instead of the terrible "is" that she didn't want to use now. "She was for sure there when he made the calls and give names."

"After all, she is our queen. Even Django knew it." Eren said holding Shiva's hand. "She will be the boss, and I will not murder that asshole if you don't promise you will accept it, guys."

Shiva was surprised. Maybe after all her plan was going well. She tried to don't smile in that moment remembering the main reason why she seduced Django was to have his place or at least some power, and of course that terrible fight with Django and almost being raped wasn't something she wanted or saw coming but all of that lead to the moment where she could lied about the fact Django was being a traitor. Now, she thought for herself, she could have the power and a revenge of all those hits and nights at Django' side.

"I can't see anyone but Shiva doing this." Andrzej answered.

"I do agree." Perttu smiled to Shiva and winked. "She is my queen."

She couldn't hide a bit of blush. After all, didn't Perttu once told her he would be always at her side even if she was with Django?

"Well…" Azrail sighed to then turn to see Shiva. He smiled and laughed. "What the hell! After all she is a man too. Just one thing, if she doesn't make out gang go up again I will take her place."

"Yes, of course." Eren laughed about it. "If you could. So…" he then sighed seeing her legs. "Wait, I need to cover you with some bandages, queen."

"I can do it." Perttu moved quickly almost pushing him to take her legs and some bandages. "Please, continue, friend."

It wasn't easy to see indeed, but Shiva really liked all that attention. Now she was feeling better. Perttu at her feet, Jan holding her shoulder, Andrzej in front of her and Eren holding her hand. She knew Azrail was hard to get, but at least he accepted it without more problems. But what she didn't expect was the whole plan.

"How are we going to give him the poison?" Eren said. "Doesn't he need something to push it? Like, he needs to run or swim or something to make his heart beat and then the poison will do its job." Everyone was in silence hearing him. "That's what I red once."

"You are right, Andromeda." Jan smiled. "He needs some action, like sex." Shiva felt the squish in her shoulder. "And someone close enough to can make him take the poison."

"Oh no!" Perttu rose up with a very angry expression. "Do you think Shiva will do that after what he did?!" he was almost throwing a fist to Jan…

"I will do it." Shiva said after taking a deep breath.

He could heard some strong words in Finnish, the Cygnus was terribly angry about it. Shiva didn't expect it indeed, but she could trust in Jan easily.

"Fine. Then, guys, let's begin." Jan said taking his wallet. "I need you to buy some things and maybe steal some others. If the plan works well, in some days we will cut the head of the king."

"I thought we would poison him." Azrail said a bit serious.

"We will… it is a metaphor." The Andromeda laughed. "You are indeed stupid."

"Said it again!"

"Don't fight." Shiva said a bit tired. "And please, may I stay here tonight?"

Eren, the owner of the apartment, was almost saying yes but he asked why, after all Shaka's place was indeed better and for sure Agora was waiting for her. She needed to explain that, once more, she couldn't arrive like that. His brother would be totally worried, and Shaka would need an explanation. They decided to obey her without ask more, but again Eren was almost saying yes…

"This isn't a place for a lady." Perttu smiled taking his keys and giving them to Shiva. "Stay in my apartment. I can sleep here or in a hotel."

"You are not going to be the favourite of the queen." Azrail push him to then move to the door. "But better move on, we need first to cut King's head."

"That's an elegant name for the mission." Eren smile to stand up. "And I promise you I will have a better apartment, queen."

Shiva just laughed about this, but that made her have some pain. Andrzej opened a beer and give it to her and then took the money from his brother's hand. He explained what he needed and he wanted it tomorrow or even that same night. Both twins worked very well together, so Shiva said nothing till Andrzej made a reverence as a joke and run to go out with the other Saints.

"I will call to my driver." Jan said as he pat Shiva's shoulder. "I don't want you use the bus, you must be indeed tired." He then chuckled. "It was indeed a nervous night, isn't? I bet you felt nervous when lying or when the Pegasus questioned you as the boss."

"How did…" Shiva was shocked.

"You are a very great liar, my queen." Jan said. "I must say that even if it wasn't your plan I prefer you as my boss. But remember you lie to the people who has the opportunity to see you… not the people who has the opportunity to feel your pulse and hear your voice." He gave his hand to help her stand up. "As you were all this year the brain and the neck in this gang, Django was just a traitor in his way, so I must admit your lie was true after all. I will teach you to be better in this, anyway."

She smiled and sighed leaving the beer in a table.

"Are you going to black mail me?"

Jan looked now a bit serious, even angry. He held her close enough to walk side by side to go out of the apartment as he was taking his cell phone.

"I told you, I prefer you as boss than just the neck of this team of us." He said with honestly. "I don't want or need to black mail you."

"True." She said taking the cell phone from his hands and looking something in the contact list. "For the same reason, I will accept be the leader of the Black Saints, if you promise me never leave me."

"Oh?" Jan was now surprised.

"I'm smart, I don't doubt it, and I can lead this very easy. But I want someone to guide me in all this world." She held his arm to help him walk to the stairs. "I want and need someone who can teach me not just to lie perfectly but to know when someone lies to me." She began to dial a number as they kept walking. "So, Jan, you will be at my side and I promise I will be loyal to you."

"Then is a deal, my queen." He chuckled and held her hand to kiss it. "I will be loyal to you too. Just make me a favour."

"Yes?"

"I don't want to be at your side. I prefer be your shadow." Shiva made the other man in the phone wait when she heard that. "I don't need problems, I prefer just find a solution to yours."

"It is a deal, my darker Dragon."

"Great. See it as the first deal as the leader of the Black Saints, my beautiful queen."
