"Elaine honey are you happy?" Elaine's mother told her while fixing Elaine's hair

" Yes! mama, I'm more than happy having you, papa, mommy El and everyone else here" Elaine answered her mother with a smile. Her mother smile back and kiss her forehead.

"We feel the same honey. It's your 10th birthday just enjoy okay?" her mother said fixing her dress this time and Elaine smiled to her.

Today is the 10th birthday of Elaine. The only daughter of the Perkins Family one of the four richest and respected family in the country. Her mother Eve Perkins and father Mark Perkins never make their daughter feel that they don't love her. They love her, not only her parents even the maids, guards, drivers and other workers of the Perkins family. Mommy El was the favorite maid of Elaine, She treated Mommy El like her own grandmother. Elaine doesn't have grandparents so shes happy having Mommy El in her life. Mommy El is the Oldest maid in the Perkins Mansion.

ELAINE'S POV

Mama is fixing my dress when papa entered my room. He smile at me and kiss mama, I smile at them and they hug me both.

" Happy Birthday Baby" Papa said kissing my forehead. My papa was sweet so as mama, that's why I'm so blessed, happy and thankful having them as my parents.

"Papa I'm 10 now you can't call me baby anymore" I told papa and he smirk

" You're always my baby even if you're 80 years old as long as I am alive " he said and mama agreed to papa by saying

" yes honey always till were alive " I smile at them, I can't change their mind set anyway and I love them,so being their baby forever is a nice thing, a lot of children dreaming this and I'm lucky to be their baby.

" Alright enough chit chat everyone is in the hall waiting to the birthday girl" papa said and lead the way downstairs when everyone saw me they said Happy Birthday at the same time making me smile. This Birthday is not the same compare to my previous birthdays because this time its like family gathering co'z only the people inside the house are here. In my previous birthdays the 3 richest Family are always invited but this time even them are not here. I didn't asked mama and papa about this but I'm still curious about it. Never Mind as long as I'm with my family I am happy.

" It's time to blow your candles Elaine" mommy El said walking towards the table. I make my way towards the table happily.

"Don't Forget to make your wish honey" mama reminded me. I nod and close my Eyes 'I wish to be with my family even if I have my own family' I open my eyes and blow my cake's candles everyone wishes me a happy birthday and to have more birthdays to come. They started eating when mama came and asked what was my wish a while ago. " mama I told you if I'll say my wish it'll not going to come true" I told mama while running towards papa to hide in his back. Papa looking at me like asking why and I pointed mama's direction and he smirk which is not a good sign. He push me to mama.

"Papa you're so bad" I pouted. I know that when papa didn't stop mama meaning she won't stop asking so I ended up saying my wish to them.

"it's just I wish to be with you guys" I said feeling defeated. Mama and Papa hug me so as the Mommy El, and everyone else in the room.

"we'll always with you" mama whispered. We're enjoying the hug when a sound break the hugging.

It was a Three bang sound, we all look at the sound's direction and saw Uncle Peter together with Grandpa Luke and Uncle Ivan. They are all the respected Head of the 3 richest families. They are all holding a gun and a lot more people wearing black entered the room some entered at the back and window we are surrounded. Uncle Peter pointed the gun at my father and speak

"You're not needed in this world anymore Mark" with that he shoot papa's feet in the left first then the right. My mama asked why but all of them just smile papa touch his own blood and push me right in the middle of my chest then Uncle I van shoot his head at the same time Grandpa Luke shoot mama's head. I shouted but they just turn around. The three of the them walk away it's like I'm not here it's like they cant see me they just ignored me and told to the men in black to kill everyone in this mansion.

I cant move. I feel a burning feeling in my heart. My heart hurt so much I want to scream more but I can't my voice don't want to go out. I can see the maids crying, my Mommy El shoot by a man I see everyone one by one killed by those people.

'this is so suffocating...I...I...I... want to go back... If this ....this is a dream ..I want to wake up .. please wake me up .... please stop it ' My heart aches so much it feels like burning. Burning in range of madness I feel. 'why ....why..why!...why do they have to do this they are like my family! my parents treated them as a family..I!....I...I...even considered them as family... We are close to each other .. we are the 4 respected family why? why... why?!!!.... do they have to do this to us ...why.' I can't take this anymore I want to scream.I want those man in black to die too. I don't want this! I cant see them laying in the floor full of blood every where, this is too much. I gathered every strength I have to voice out my feelings and closed my eyes I want them to stop 'please...pl..ease... s..top...stop ...stop' "STOP!!" I can hear a louder screaming this time then I slowly open my eyes and all I can see is Fire there's a fire everywhere people in the room was screaming in pain 'What's happening?' with that question I let

myself eaten by the darkness.

ELAINE'S POV

'Where am I?' I look around and notice a burned bodies around me. Then I remembered what happened last night, everything, every detail was remembered, every screaming and crying was remembered. My eyes begin to release a tears, one drop up to another. I started crying recalling everything and begin to ask.

'why? why do they have to do that? we're so close... we acted like a family... They are so close to me, to my parents. Uncle Ivan was my papa's best buddy they we're bestfriend. Why do they have to leave me alive if they kill everyone of my family?' I'll make sure that keeping me alive was your big mistake 'I wont let them off.I'll make them pay an eye for an eye, a blood for a blood, and a family for a family.Even if you're the strongest Family in the country I'll make sure to make you guys pay. '

I let the tears my tears to flow over my face and make my way to my mama and papa's body their body was burned but I can still recognize them trough their ring. My mind won't stop asking why.Can't stop thinking about the past memories we're together with the persons who killed them.All I can feel is betrayal,sadness, and loneliness. I don't want to think that they are all gone, How can I?. We are so happy the last time then all of a sudden they're gone like a shooting star, after wishing it'll disappear. Mama told me to enjoy my birthday but how?.Mama how?.

Everything is different now a moment that supposed to happy and memorable one turns to a nightmare. ' I am not going to die here. I will survive. I an not going to be a sweet, loving and  weak anymore. Because I am weak that's why they're dead because I can't do anything but to cry'  I cant even move when there killing my family all I can do was watch them dying .

"I have to be strong.No! I WANT TO BE STRONG. I will make sure that all the people who destroyed me,hurts me and betrayed me will suffer more than what I am feeling right now".I need to train myself for the future. I want to revenge my Family I want justice. "I want them to suffer my justice". I wipe my tears and say good bye to my family's bodies. My power right now can't even make a good funeral for them. Revenge was the only one I can do for them and I will not die till I'll finish that.

I went in my father's office under ground. Papa told me when I was 8 that there are money and properties that named in my nickname in case of me running away from them. It was a joke that time and I even told them that I won't ever do that but now all I can do is to run away. Papa told me the code of his safe box and gave me a access to his office that time,I thought it was useless co'z  I am still a kid and now I realized that Papa knew that it will happen someday. I pack all the files in my father's safe box and some moneys i the safe box there are a 5 credit cards named in my nickname too everything in the safe box has my name in it.

' it is not safe to stay here they will com back '  I've packed everything I needed It's time for me to get out her

"GOODBYE FOR NOW. I'LL BE BACK AND THAT TIME I MAKE SURE THEY WILL ALL DIE"

ELAINE'S POV

"Anne inform the Research and Development Team, we will have a meeting in 5 minutes" I told Anne, my assistant. Anne is 35 years old. She was the one appointed by my parents to take care of the properties that named after my nickname. She was secretly appointed by my parents even I, don't know her. She told me that the properties that she handled are not connected to the properties of the Perkins to make sure that the Three Families who joint hand to take down the my Family wont suspect it and won't lay a finger on it. When I called her ten years ago, she was shock to hear what happened to my parents.

"Yes CEO Aine" she answered me and make her way to the RD team. I was left alone in my office and i recall  everything I've experience when I was a child.

It's been ten years since my parents died, so as the old me. Back then I don't know how did I survive that fire and where did that fire came from.Every person in that room was burned except me. Maybe I was lucky enough but come to think of it how?, How did I survive that fire?. I was so shock about the things I saw and experience that moment that is why it didn't came in my mind till i calm myself down. Till now I don't know how, the answer in that Question are not yet found.

That day I get every files that my father keep in the safe. I know that this Files are important and I don't want it to end up in the hands of those bastards who killed my family. When I gathered everything I needed I ran as fast as I could away from our mansion. When I  know that I am far enough I grabbed  a taxi and let it drive miles away from the area. At that time I don't know where to go, if I'll go to my friends house Uncle Ivan, Uncle Peter and Grandpa Luke will surely kill them. I read the files and found a number. I asked the driver if I may barrow his phone and he let me. I called the number

" hello?" the other line asked. It was a voice of a woman

"uhmmm do you know Eve and Mark Perkins?" I asked her I am not sure if  this person can be trusted that's why I didn't tell her my name.

"  Yes. Are you Elaine, Mr. and Mrs. Perkins daughter?" I don't know if I can trust her but her  number was written here so maybe I can.

"Yes I am."  I answered honestly

" oh .did they.... are they gone?" she asked with concern and shock in her voice, hearing about it, the scene pop up in my mind I can't stop the tears from falling.

" Yes they are. who are you?" I asked her. I still do not know if I can trust her or not if my father do trust her then so do I 'but not completely I have learned my lesson'.

" I am Anne I was appointed by your father to take care of the properties named after you I am at the other side of the country in City N. Do you need me to come and get you?" She asked and I answered

" no I can manage I'll go there just prepare someone who you trust to fetch at the airport" I told her

"Yes I got it young Madam Aine" she answered . Aine was my nickname given by my Grandma El co'z she's El and I am Aine. That's why I love her with her it makes my name complete.I will change my name to Aine no one can complete me anyway.

I deleted the number and told the driver to buy a new one I gave some money to him and destroy the mobile phone. I don't want to be traced.I told him to go in the nearest airport in the area.

When I Arrived at City N I change my ne to Aine Eve. I choose my Mother's name for my surname co'z they thought the Perkins Family are totally gone. I can't use my real surname but Eve can make me feel that I am still connected to them. Since then I make sure to become a strong person. For the past 10 years I didn't stop training myself. I studied every fighting skill I could and practice it every single day, yah I was busy but Revenge was the only reason why I choose the live. I studied in advance to prepare myself on handling The Company. At the age of fourteen I officially take over the company but didn't show up till I was 18. I was secretly handling the company in the shadow of Anne, showing up myself in early age won't benefit me, that is why I waited till I was in the legal age to show up.Anne became my secretary since then. A lot of people was curious why their previous CEO suddenly became a secretary instead of being the Vice President, they are curious but didn't have the guts to ask. They did not believe in my ability at first, who will anyway? at that age?. But of course I can handle it professionally I've been the one running this Company since I was 14. And I make Anne to be my secretary because she is the only person I trust. After 2 years my Company became the biggest Company in City N.

And I am Ready to go Back in the main City.

"It's time for those bastards to face their own downfall" I told myself and hear a knock on the door.

"come in" I told my serectary. I know It was her because she is the only one who can enter my office.

"Miss CEO Aine they are in the meeting room waiting for you" Anne updated me.

I nod and make my way in the meeting room.

'First Step of Revenge is coming' I thought and entered the meeting room.
