[flash back]

Age- 11

I leaned against the wall right next to the black painted wooden door, trying to hear what was going on inside. The hallway was dark, the only source of light was from the small gap from the slightly open door, I held my breathe trying to focus on the muffled words from inside the room.

"Underground... depart... 8 am..." small pieces of information was all I could hear, which barely made any sense. As the daughter and eldest child of F/n Grimes, I have all rights to enter that room and know what is going on.

My father, the leader of The Red Screams which is one of the most known and dangerous mafias, we're well known in the Underground. But not many people know of us inside the walls though. People in the Underground fear my fathers organisation and as they should, though I myself haven't gone to any of my fathers missions or done more than train as hard as I could to pleas  him. I hear his men always brag about how amazing the missions are and how my father is the strongest man in the whole of the wall's population. It makes me proud. I wish to be just like him when I'm finally old enough to lead The Red Screams.

But I can't do that if he kicks me out of his meetings all the time.

"Y/n! What are you doing out here?!?" I heard a voice from behind me say, loud enough to make the chatter from inside the room stop.

"Shut it you idiot!" I whispered yell at her. Xara just stood there confused. Xara has been my friend ever since I was young; our fathers work for each other so it was obvious we would become friends.

Before we became friends I was alone. Being the daughter of a ruthless killer wasn't always a good thing, especially when you're trying to make friends. But even as much as I appreciate Xara sometimes she does shit like this, which puts me in a bad position with my father.

Chairs moving and low whispers come from the room which made me freeze in my spot.

Shit.

Loud footsteps come closer and closer to the door, but I couldn't move a muscle. I was stuck. The door creaked behind me as a tall shadow was now hovering over me.

"What are the two of you doin here!?" A low deep voice said, his voice held anger and annoyance probably because we disturbed his meeting. Slowly turning to him without making eye contact knowing if I do I would die from his cold glare.

"I-" I began but before I could say anymore I felt a hard stinging pain form my left cheek and a loud slap sound followed. My eyes widen. Feeling the eyes from inside the room all on me. I could feel Xara trying her best not to react knowing there would be consequences if she did.

"How many fucking times have I told you to stay away from my business!" He yelled, but I remained quiet. "ANSWER ME YOU LITTLE SHIT!!!" I jumped at his louder yell.

"I'm sorry sir, I didn't mean to disturb you." I apologise hoping he would let me off easy.

"Get out of my site!" With that he walked back inside the room slamming the door behind him making me and Xara jump. The hallway was now pitch black. The feeling of tears welling up in the back of my eyes made me turn around to leave before I made anymore noice.

I ran down the corridor which felt like it was getting longer and longer with every step I took. Finally getting out into the garden where all the hallways led to. The moonlight shown down reflecting onto the water from the fountain. Beautiful flowers of all sorts planted in the four squares on each side of the fountain. I closed my eyes letting the cold breeze hit my face. Tears falling slowly from my eyes.

"Y/n I'm sorry I-" Xara began but I didn't let her finish.

"You already knew how my father would react if he found me there!" I say in a lower town, "but you still did that." I blame her, I know it wasn't all her fault. I mean if I wasn't snooping outside the meeting room we wouldn't have been in this situation.

"I'm sorry I was just trying to get you out of there before you got caught... I didn't mean for him to hear me." She said in a sad voice, which made me feel even angrier with her. She shouldn't be the one who was upset. She wasn't the one that got slapped in the face. She wasn't the one who was humiliated in front of all the higher ups.

"Leave me alone." I stated. I was mad but I didn't want to go off at her, I knew that wasn't a good thing to do even if I was upset with her.

"Y/n please, I'm sorry," she didn't budge.

"I said leave." I spoke once more but this time some of my anger slipped into my words.

"Y/n please."

Leave.

"I'm sorry."

Just leave me alone.

"Y/n-"

"JUST LEAVE ME ALONE FOR FUCK SAKE! DON'T YOU UNDERSTAND SOMETHING AS SIMPLE AS THAT!"

Shit.

Why did I say that?

Shit.

I didn't mean it to come out like that.

SHIT.

Her eyes widen, then she turned around slowly and started to walk away. I shouldn't have shouted at her like that.

"Xara I'm sorry..." she kept walking. "I didn't mean to shout like that..." she stopped and turned her head slightly over her shoulder to look at me.

She's... crying.

"I should go..." there was so much hurt in her voice, but with that she ran off, leaving me standing there like a statue.

"Did I... just lose my best friend." I felt my legs go numb, and then my knees gave up on me. Tears fell onto the cold stone ground.

Why...

My shadow moved slightly from my sobbing.

I was alone... again.

I felt a sharp pain fill up inside of my chest. My heart sank, and I felt a hole inside my stomach.
