Flashback
So many years ago, Chris claimed that he had such a perfect family. He had a beautiful wife and four adorable daughters. Belle-mere, she had dark black eyes that could stare into his very soul (A.N. I don't remember what color belle-mere's eyes are.) And she had the most gorgeous black hair with natural blond highlights.
"I'm going now." Chris yelled out from his bedroom, actually, his and Belle-mere's bedroom.
"You're already late. Better hurry." Belle-mere placed a can of frozen coffee on the counter. "By the way, Don't forget to come home early today."
"Yeah yeah, of course. Wait, why am I coming home early again?" He grabbed onto his suitcase before running into the kitchen and gave his wife a kiss on the cheek.
"Because I said so. What have we discussed?" She placed her hands on her hip.
"Don't argue with you because let's face it, I'll never win?"
"Exactly." She leaned forward and kissed him on his lips. "Now get going."
"Right." He hugged her quickly before rushing over to say good-bye to his daughters, from order of oldest to youngest.
"Bye Nojiko, Nami, Julia, and Caylee." After each name, he would place a small kiss on their cheeks. The girls looked like miniature clones of their mother. The same eyes and the same hair. The only way you could tell who was who was by the height difference. Of course, the oldest was tallest and the youngest was shortest.
"Bye Dad." They all waved at him as he ran out the door.

"Morning Sir, you're late. And don't use the excuse 'my wife locked me up in the bedroom'."
"I know Boris, that excuse doesn't work anymore. It's now 'my girls locked me in their room to play dress up tea party'."
"Funny. The group's waiting." Chris and Boris headed into the lab room where him and a group of three specially selected students worked and experimented on different types of chemicals.
"Morning students, so what do we got today?" He took his place at the head of the long table. "Come on, lay it on me."
"Morning Professor, uh..we actually don't have anything today. So we figured that you would show up some different corpses and help identify the cause of death."
"Do you think I have that kind of authority?....I don't but we're gonna do it anyway."
---
"Ok students, this death was ruled a suicide. Are they correct or not?" Chris sat ontop of a counter and allowed the students to study the fresh corpse. Somehow, that university was able to get special permission to actually look at the corpse when done with.
"Sir, there are bruises on the neck with a slightly detection of a fingerprint."
"Right, so what was the cause of death?"
"Strangulation."
"Wrong."
"Wrong?"
"Did you look at all the evidence?" Chris stepped over to the corpse and pulled off the cover. "Look, there are bruises around the rib cage and the lungs. These bruises are in the shape of a fist. When the victim got punched in the stomach, it caused the ribs to crack and puncture the lungs. Some blood flew into the now open lungs."
"SO the victim drowned from their own blood?"
"Yes, and just to be sure that the victim was dead, the predator strangled them." The students were struck with amazement. Before Chris could continue on with his lecture, his cellphone in his pocket vibrated. "Break." He yelled before taking out the phone and answering it.
---
"You wanted to see me sir?" Chris sat in front of the main boss of the whole university.
"Yes, I've been watching you for some time now Chris."
"Am I doing good or bad?"
"Don't interrupt me." Chris covered his mouth before he spoke on. "So I have recommended you to the Research Committee of Advance Studies. Have you ever heard of them?"
"No sir."
"This group specializes in finding cures for the world's most known diseases: Cancer, AIDS, Diabetes, all that stuff. And I feel that with you on that team, you would benefit from it."
"So what does all this mean?"
"It means, that you're moving up Chris. You're moving up. Think of it as a promotion."
---
"I can't wait to tell Belle-mere the good news. She'll be so happy..at least I hope she will. Won't she? Maybe I should stop and buy her some flowers. Oh heck, I'll do it anyway." Chris stopped off at the flower shop near the house and bought a dozen pink roses. Belle-mere's favorite kind.
The rest of the way home, he couldn't stop smiling to himself. When he arrived, he noticed that there were a bunch of cars parked in front of his house.
"What the…?" He grabbed onto the bouquet of roses and headed to the front door. When he opend the door, the lights burst on full blast and a bunch of people jumped out of nowhere yelling "SURPRISE!"
"HOLY GUACOMOLE AND CHIPS WITH CRACKERS!" Chris grabbed onto the place where his heart was, it felt like it was about to break through his chest. "What's going on?"
"It's your surprise birthday party." Belle-mere stepped in front of the group.
"It's my birthday? Let' s see, it's march the…I forgot my own birthday." Belle-mere playfully punched him in the arm. "Oh yeah, this is for you." He gave her the bouquet.
"What?"
"Everybody, I have an anouncement to make. Today at work, I was given a promotion." The whole room was filled with cheers.
"But why did you give me…8 pink roses?"
"Actually, there were twelve except…" He pulled the other four roses from his back. "These are for my little princesses." He went over to his girl and got down on his knees, giving them each a pink rose.
"This is so unlike you, but I like it."
10 YEARS LATER
"Chris, this is the fifth patient we've lost this month because of your crazy experiments." The main boss of the university yelled over at Chris.
"With all due respect sir, how are we gonna be able to find the cures if we don't experiment enough?"
"You've just had way too many people die. Those who have actually been inside the committee longer than you have had fewer deaths. Heck, they're had known. And we have people suing us for the different deaths."
"But sir.."
"No more 'but's. I'm sorry Chris. I have no choice but to fire you."
---
"What was wrong with my tactics? And why the heck are we getting sued? I didn't even know that this could happen." Chris hit his head against the steering wheel. "God, why are you doing this to me?!" He yelled loud enough for the people outside the car to hear.
"I need to find somebody that…leads a horrible life. That will not be missed by anybody at all." He looked out the car window and noticed a gang marching around. His eyes landed on the one in front, he was apparantly the leader.
"I've heard of this gang. Rumor has it that the leader is a orphan. He wouldn't be missed at all."
He turned his car on and started to slowly drive around, looking for more victims. He did noticed a boy with a book go to talk to the leader of the gang. 'I'll take him too. But I might need to hurt a few people in order to do so.'
While just cruising down the street, he saw a girl with black hair, fighting off some taller guy. She was swinging her fist around, aiming for the guy's head. In order to hear what they were saying, he rolled down his window.
"Bro, stop. You said this would be kept a secret."
"Ebony, nobody knows that we're related. So I can do anything I want."
"Oh, another one. That makes three, but I want one or two more. Just to be safe." He continue driving more, looking all over for the last victims.
He kept his window down, just to be sure that he would catch all conversations. He heard nothing interesting at all.
"CRACKERS! I need more. More." He stopped in front of a random house and rested for a while, a headache was forming.
"Bye Boys. Love you both!" He saw a lady with a lot of make-up on run out of the house, wearing very skimpy clothes.
"Bye mom." Two boys came out of the house and waved at their mom as she ran down the sidewalk.
"Oh, what's this? a whore and her two boys? And those boys don't look alike, that much. PERFECT!"
---
"Chris, where have you been?"
"No where." Chris walked by Belle-mere, not even bothering to go say hi to his kids. He wouldn't even talk to them ever since they all got their hairs colored. "What's with you?"
"What's with me? What's with you and those crazy girls? These new hairstyles are driving me crazy. Why did you shave the sides of your head? Why did Nami color her hair orange? Why does Julia like red so much?"
"Calm down calm down, it's nothing scary. They're just going through some changes."
"Changes that suck."
"Why don't you talk to them more? And hang out with them more? Maybe this is why they're doing all this crazy stuff."
"Don't blame me for all this. They're getting this from their crazy mother."
"What did you just call me?"
"CRAZY!"
End of Flashback
"That's how it all started. These kids were perfect because nobody would miss them. And getting rid of just two or three people was easy."
"Wait…" Eva stepped forward. "Getting rid?"
"I guess it's time you knew. Ebony, your father and brother are dead. Harvey, your mother's dead too. Chad and Keith, well same thing. They're all gone."
That's it for now. I know I do probably a billions flashbacks but I love them. Thanks for reading. Please leave a review on your way out.
