Chapter 5
"I fight to remember, because if I don't I fear that I'll lose my memory and forget who I fight for... I fight to protect my family, or at least what remains of their memory."
A young woman about seventeen walked down a street. She had long, blond hair and aqua coloured eyes, she smirked as she noticed that she was being followed by two hooded men. Both figures slowed their pace to seem less suspicious. She turned down an alley and checked over her shoulder to make sure the men were following and as she expected they were. She ran down the alleys and came to a dead end. The two men caught up quickly, they lowered their hoods and both smirked.
"You're out of luck girlie" the first thug said.
"Now you're about to find out what the price is for stealing from us" the second thug laughed.
"I stole nothing, you stole from me so I took it back" she responded. The first thug looked at his friend and chuckled.
"Poor Emerald, you lose your family, you lose your home, you lose a family heirloom and now you lose your life" the second thug chuckled.
"Actually boys, I lured you out for information, which you will give me, even if I have to force it out of you" Emerald spat back.
"Really, you get anything from us," the first thug responded "you don't even have a weapon to stop us."
"When we're done doing whatever we please, we will kill you slowly and painfully" the second thug smirked.
"Bring it" was Emerald's only response. Both thugs looked at each other, drew their weapons and started running at her. Emerald smiled and drew two swords. She quickly disarmed the first thug and sliced his head off. The second thug hesitated and gave Emerald a chance to disarm him and pin his arms into the ground. The thug screamed in pain and she stood above him and smiled in delight at the thugs' pain.
"So, are you going to tell me what I want or am I going to have to torture you some more?" she smiled gleefully.
"Okay, okay I'll tell you" the thug said back.
"Where are the transcripts I had to get into Beacon?"
"They're in the safe in the boss' house."
"Why must you lie to me?"
"I swear I'm-"
"Stop lying" Emerald screamed. She twisted her sword and the thug cried out in pain.
"Alright, I have it on me right" he cried out.
"Thank you for your cooperation" Emerald smiled. She removed both her swords and the thug stood up and started walking away. Emerald kicked the thug in the back of the knees and held her swords to his neck.
"So, you don't want to take any chances do you?" the thug asked.
"Nope" Emerald responded. She quickly cleaved his head from his shoulders and let his body fall to the floor.
