"And yet again Jack the Ripper strikes, leaving  another helpless victim mutilated beyond recognition." 
Felix read the title of the news paper he picked up on his way to work. As his eyes wandered further across the article, the boy began to get ripples of shivers down his spine.
"Slashed in 16 different places, a young woman was found with all of her limbs torn off one by one. Later to be found scattered throughout a dark alley" Felix  cringed at those descriptive words.
He couldn't help but feel a little bit scared.
It also didn't help that the murder had happened beside his studio apartment.

Walking further through the dim streets of London, Felix quickened his pace, finally realizing that he was out in the open. Alone and vulnerable.
Reading past a couple more paragraphs in the paper, Felix started to wonder how the victims felt in their last moments. How did their families react when they knew they lost a daughter?, a son? Did they break down in sobs?, or chuckle with humour knowing what a bad person the victim may have been?.
Thinking about the families led to Felix focusing on his own family.
Did they miss him?
Did they often wonder how he was doing?
Had they heard about the murders?
If so, why didn't they call Felix?
Did they not care about his well-being?
Were they doing better without him?
Did they not want to see- wait. Felix snapped himself out of his train of negative thoughts as he realized something. His family couldn't contact him due to the reason of Felix having no phone.
When Felix moved into his apartment, it hadn't been equipped with a home phone just yet.
Felix immediately felt bad for ever thinking low of his family.
Shaking his head, the boy continued walking, now staring at the newly wet ground.

Felix was a 21 year old boy, living in London as of recently. Before he decided to move to London to pursue his dream of becoming a fashion designer, he lived in eastern Australia with his sisters (Olivia, and Racheal) as well as his mother and father. Although they were hesitant at first about the idea of Felix leaving them to move to London, his parents eventually caved in, seeing how happy it would make him. Felix was indeed excited too, after all he wanted to get a break from the heat and his family.
But he wasn't quite expecting things to turn out the screen, your pic, and then she come back that bad the way that they were currently.
Not in a million years did Felix ever think that he would be living in the same city that a notorious murder would also be living in.
It was quite a shock for Felix when he first found out about the cases of Jack the Ripper. To say the least he was terrified. And now that one of those exact murder happened right beside his own home he felt even worse.
He couldn't help but wonder, if things could ever get worse.

And the short answer is that they would.....

( editing note )
After around 8 or 9 months of making almost no progress on this story, I'm finally taking my time to edit and release new chapters.
Looking back I'm realizing how much I dislike the way I wrote. I've grown as a person, which further entails that my writing exponentially improved since I began this story.
