When Luo Si walked down the stairs, she threw a last glance towards the departing city train, reading 'West Line nr. 228'.

Luo Si was in an elevated mood. She may meet her nightmare of the past today, but fear she had none, rather looking forward to it.

In the middle of summer, the Qinxing Park flourished to the best of its ability. Guilin, even though a city of an autonomous prefecture that was based around the production of sugar canes, was very well off and took great care in maintaining their highlights. The half forest half grassland, making it the biggest attraction, definitely counted in.

A big pond reflected Luo Si on the edge into the park. It did not take her long find whom she was looking for, spotting a standing out youth. Be it because of the protection fending off feminine adorers or the pimp-like donned tuxedo. It was difficult to tell whether he was bursting with arrogance or self-esteem as well. Both mattered little though, since many women glanced in his direction.

Hong Luo Si could only shake it off. She had been just like them, attracted to the popular, rich and influential. Dazed by the blinding devil decorated in gold. However, that was a century ago.

When Luo Si entered the public light Liuxian instantly found her, too. The women focusing on Liuxian also moved over their judging gazes, landing on a plain and simple dressed 17-years-old young woman. The 'competition' could not make heads over tail, why such a noble man would wait for a poor girl.

Lin Rong, who was watching the show through the window of a hidden limousine, could barely contain a chuckle as she watched Hong Luo Si in ridicule.

How could the oblivious girl not be thrown out of the sisterhood community for not even matching her clothes on the same level of the opposite. Lin Rong could already imagine the rage going on in the other women' heads. 'Why does someone like him, who clearly knows his social stand and etiquette meet up with you? You do not deserve such a good-looking man.'

Luo Si did not mind the sister less watches much. However, when Luo Si was only a couple of steps away from Liuxian, she smiled for a split second in the direction of Lin Rong, puzzling the latter. This whole time Luo Si had not averted her gaze from Liuxian, but a dozen meters in front her already ex-boyfriend she looked away. 'Was it coincidence?'

Liuxian did not take notice of the small slip. He was focused on his speech to humiliate Luo Si to the deepest level. Maybe a little bit disrupted by Luo Si's plain appearance. Believing she would don her best dress in front of him, to entice him, and not wear the second-best thing she blindly grabbed out of the closet was an unforeseeable miscalculation on his side.

Liuxian felt enraged as Luo Si was coming closer and closer. Did she try to ruin him by meeting him in plain no-name brands, was she trying humiliate him, by not putting him in her eyes? 'I am the one to humiliate you and not the other way around!'

"Hi Liuxian, what's today's occasion for inviting me to a date?" An enthusiastic voice pulled him out of his chain of thoughts.

"Today's occasion," a cruel smile appeared on Liuxian's face and he got louder. "Today we celebrate- "Lin Rong heard the signal and walked out of the car towards Liuxian, attracting many pairs of eyes as she strived towards Liuxian.

Luo Si interrupted him, "Wait! Let me guess. Okay, my first guess is that your father has given you a shit ton of money which you will spend as you see fit."

"Hehe… indeed my father has given me a shit ton of money, but I-, "Liuxian was interrupted again.

"Ah, there is a 'but'. Hmm let me guess again. Your father has not only given you lots of money but also made you acquainted with his new business partners' vixen, whom you want to deepen your bond with by spending this money and choose this planned ridicule to make a grand appearance."

"Erm…" Liuxian was taken aback by Hong Luo Si's bold, yet accurate assumption. She had never acted like that in front of him. Always obediently following Liuxians commands, totally oblivious to anything else.

Lin Rong who had already appeared beside Liuxian, staggered after hearing the last half of Luo Si's assumption, "you little…," but even she was cut of midsentence.

Luo Si continued, "alright, alright, alright, now I have it, my final guess. Today's occasion is dedicated to humiliate me in front of dozens of mundane ants. You are breaking up with me because you deem me useless now. In return showing me your new girlfriend, who neither lacks money, beauty nor fame. Though, we both know you will only keep her until you catch a bigger fish."

"As the saying goes, greed and lust, hand in hand, until gluttony does them apart."

Lin Rong could not take the shamelessness coming out of Luo Si's mouth and tried to slap the bad mouther right in the face. The receiver on the other hand did not act according to the script and bent her back slightly.

Lin Rong fell out of balance as she had missed her target. There was a try to grab onto her opponent, but Luo Si had already left that range with a single sidestep, letting Lin Ring meet the hard-rocky path face on. The drink in Lin Rongs' hand splashed all over her.

Liuxian snapped out of his daze after hearing the splashing sound. Within arm's reach he grabbed Luo Si by the color with bloodshot eyes, as she let him.

However, before he could send a fist in her face, a calm and emotionless berating made him hesitant. "Are you seriously going to hit a poor woman? Do you not fear losing face in public daylight? Especially now, when you are officially representing your father."

Liuxian lowered his fist visualizing his father's face and pushed Luo Si backwards. Stabilizing herself without much trouble, a dusted off gesture was thrown in retaliation.

The renew Ex-boyfriend had not seen it as he attended Lin Rong. Deepening his bound with the rich mistress came first over all. Lin Rong on the other hand, swung her purse at her displeasure while yelling at him. "You idiot, how can you get played by this whore!"

"But my father- "Liuxian only regained an overview of the situation after the woman on his knees told him he got played with this whole time.

What damaged image? His father would just silence the media. He puffed hot air as he looked towards the source of today's escalation.

Hong Luo Si had already self-dismissed herself. With the relationship officially ended for a second time it was time to move on. She was already a good distance away, but could still hear the screaming enraged voice of Liuxian, "HONG LUO SI, you bitch! Don't think this is over. Remember, you have nothing and I have it all. Money, status. You hear me Luo Si, even your family works for me. I will make you live in hell for the rest of your life!"

'Make me live in hell for the rest of my life?' The subject of matter stopped in place. She let all the suffering humiliation of her past resurface. Were all the wounds she had spent healing forgotten? The backstabbing's repaid? What about the lives of the loved ones she lost? Her brother, relatives, and true friends, could they now rest in peace?

"-fying… unsatisfying…" She started mumbling to herself. The feeling of disappointment swapped over her. But that it was not directed towards Liuxian. He was not even worthy of that feeling. Instead, it was targeted towards herself. All that pain. And she wasted it all just for a walk of shame? Was this a confessional where one 'Amen' could wash away all your sins? No. Even though it was heaven, it was her heaven.

"What are you saying bitch? If you want to apologize, lick my crews shoe soles clean and then die right off!" Liuxians anger had not even lessened a bit. His bodyguards came forward to clean him and Lin Rong up from head to toe.

"Indeed…" Luo Si turned around, "you misunderstood," Moving back into the tiger's maw.

"I misunderstood? Bitch when the great me is finished with you; you would even beg the heavens just to lick the shoes of beggars!"

She was but only a dozen meters away from him. Two guards, imposingly standing in between. "No, the matter of misunderstanding is my honor."

"What the f*** are you saying, you crazy wh***?" Liuxians red face became a bit pale by starring in the opposites crazed eyes. Even the guards took half a step back facing the lunatic.

"You see," the maddening monotonous voice continued. "I believed this to be my heaven."

Two javelin-like hands flew towards the defender's eyes. Tensing up, the muscular duo instantly raised their arm in a cross shape.

The attack however never came. Instead, the monotonous personification rolled on, but from behind the wall of two. "But it's not. It's hell. Your hell!"

Flush*

"IYAI!" Lin Rong was the first to witness Luo Si's gruesome act. If reflection in her widened eyes showed a magic trick, it would have been one of the most amazing she had ever seen.

Half of Luo Si's arm had disappeared below her Ex's ribcage in an upwards motion.

"Strange, I had assumed you had none." Liuxians ears where hit with a crazy euphoric voice. His whole body going numb and stiff from the pumping adrenaline.

The only thing he could feel were cold claws gripping around his life organ. A gurgling wince parted from Liuxians mouth before it drowned in liquid.

"Shh." The reaper leaned her index finger of her free hand on the victim's lips. "Listen. This feeling, I know it very well. Honestly. I have been through this process more than a handful of times. 4 of them even caused by your distinguished self. A parting gift on a parting relationship, how ironic."

"Rejoice. Your dogs will follow you soon. For someone who had spent a fifth of a century in that business this is the least I can do." She ripped out the vanished part of her arm with more mass than inserted.

The guards were petrified by the shriek and sound of ripping flesh. Too terrified to turn around only made things easier for the killer. Piercing their hearts by bypassing the shoulder blades, the dogs quickly followed their master.

"N-no… pleash" In the face of true carnage the new girlfriend shuddered franticly to no end. Lin Rong instinctively knew that she was next in line when she made eye contact. A hoars but high-pitched plea was the last thing heard from her.

The killer just replied with just a smile. Her blood-drenched limbs were moving for the last time.

The dozens of onlookers had already run off in panic. Police cars could be heard racing like an unstoppable force into the Qinxing Park. Yet, the killer took little notice of that.

This whole scenario felt wrong. Blackened figures jumped out of howling and shining metal beasts. Pointing heart sized black object towards her while screaming out of the top of their lungs.

She closed her eyes, recalling the whole act.

Even though she had extinguished her root of all evil. The knot inside her did not open up.

bang*

Luo SI opened her eyes and found herself walking down the stairs of the train station. Throwing an unwavering glance towards the sound of a leaving train, she read the trains deadline, 'West Line nr. 228'.
