Chapter 290 - Blacks part two (1/2)

Snake had been in charge of training Sara and that was how she grew closer to him.

At first, he had been a bit tough on her, telling her to succeed if she wanted to escape from them. But later, he began to feel bad for her.

She always cried because she missed her family dearly. She had never stayed away from her father for that long and she could not get used to it. Even though she had not really liked school, she began to miss school and envy kids who lived a normal life instead of being locked up like a prisoner just like her. She was stuck with these robbers and had no idea when she would die.

One day, Jaz was taken into Fuji's room.

It seemed Sara's behaviours motivated her and so, she wanted to be like Sara. When Fuji tried to touch her just like he had done before, she decline for the very first time.

Sara had always known that Jaz was one of his 'forced' women.

She had heard and seen several other women been taken to Fuji's chambers and whenever they were sent there, Fuji always made sure she was standing by his door so she could hear how much they screamed and cried. He always did that to remind her that if she did not train properly, he was going to make sure she stayed there till she turned twenty and experience whatever went on inside the room.

On that particular day Jaz was taken to his room, Sara heard how she refused to comply and Fuji had gotten angry. After hitting her a couple of times, he asked her to be locked up.

Sara had been scared for her and had sneaked to go see her at night. When she met the miserable looking Jaz, she assured her she was going to look for a way to save her so they could both run away together some day.

And as she was making plans for that, she was summoned the next night by Fuji.

She saw the members of Black form a circle and when they saw her approach, they created space for her to move to the centre.

She looked at all of them in confusion before walking slowly to the centre.  She saw a rolled mat and knew it was a person because it seemed the person was struggling to be free.

She felt a hand on her shoulder and flinched in fright.

When she turned, she saw Fuji standing there with a glass of wine in one hand and a club in another.

He looked straight into her eyes and twirled the glass of wine.

Sara did not know what happened to her but she suddenly gave him her full attention. He pointed to the mat on the ground and began to speak.

”That's him. He forced himself on you. He tried to take you. People like him should not live in this world”

He continued to say other things that reminded her of that dreaded night. She did not know how he had found out about that night. And she did not bother to ask him because her kind was preoccupied.

It was as if he was painting the picture of that night to her again and soon, she began to shout and cry for the voices to go away.

”Kill him” He handed the club to her and pointed at the mat.

”Use this. Get rid of him. The memories would go away. The pain would go away” He assured her in a soft tone.

Her hands shook as she took the club from his hand. And as he continued to fire her up, she began to use the club violently on the person while screaming for the voices to go away.

”Let me be. Let me be free!” She creamed over and over again with her two hands holding the club as she kept on using it on the 'man'.

She noticed the person stopped moving and Fuji began to laugh.

He signalled for two men to unroll the mat and when they were done, she saw Jaz covered in blood with her hands and feet tied while her lips were sealed with a tape.

For like a minute, Sara tried to register what she had done as she stood there with wide eyes and agape mouth.

”Don't think about running away my dear. You may end up just like her”

At that point, her body began to shake violently. She looked at the club in her hand and the dead Jaz.

She dropped the club and fell to the ground. The shock was too much for her to recover from in a few minutes.

She had killed a person again!

Someone she had offered hope.

Someone who had been taken her as her sister.

She had killed her.

She continued to stare blankly. She could not cry nor scream. All she could do was stare blankly.

Even after the crowd dispersed, and her corpse were gotten rid of, she continued to sit there and gasp for breath.

The only thought on her mind was to kill Fuji.

Muchen could feel her body trembling again and held her even tighter this time.

His eyes were closed. Not because he did not want to look at her, but because he did not want her to see the desire in his eyes to kill the so called Fuji.

God had done him a great favour by keeping him alive because he was going to end his life himself.
