Later I finally got back home, Victor flew into a fit when I told him about what happened. He wanted to send people to take care of this, but I told home no.
”Victor, it's not fun letting someone else have all the fun. I will take care of it personally.”
”But young master, this is no ordinary typical family. They will have tight security around the clock.”
”when has that ever stopped me before? Now tell me more about that bitch and her family.”
Victor reached and grabbed a file from off a pile. He handed it to me and I opened up the folder. Victor started to give me a summary of the information as I read.
”Your classmate is the daughter of Jin Tama, who is head of the Tama crime family. They are also the ones who that man you played with worked for.”
”Worked for? As in?”
”He is dead, I guess Mr. Tama was not in a kind mood that day.”
I shrugged my shoulders. ”Go on.”
”your classmate Nanami is his daughter. She got into the family business after her mother died, and She runs a casino in the city. She is known to be ruthless when someone goes against her, and Word is she is responsible for five murders, but they are just rumors and I have found no evidence of this being true.”
I started to think. The casino is a perfect opportunity to get back at her, but I also wanted to get the father too. The father will be a little harder to tackle, so I had to settle for Nanami. For now at least.
”Prepare an outfit for tonight, I feel lucky tonight,” I said smiling.
”young master a word if you please.”
I stopped smiling and turned to victor. ”what is it?”
”Your father thinks it is time for you to focus more on the family then the game.”
”You know I can't do that Victor.”
”He said you would say that. And in response, he said if you don't accomplish your goal by the time he comes back. You will be excommunicated from the family.”
”fine, now go prepare. My attire for tonight.”
I left victor office and headed back up towards my room. My hands had an Itch, I had to do something. I felt this rage building up inside me, I had to clench my jaw to help deal with the frustration that was bubbling up. Father was always getting in my way! I just want to make them pay! See all of them suffer! Why can he understand that there is more to it? Can't he see that this is not only about petty revenge, but about the family as well?! That stupid old man!
If I can get my revenge, and ruin the game. Then a lot of businesses will lose a lot of money. That's when we step in, an opportunity, a chance to break the bottleneck that's holding us back.
It would be fun! Exciting! I wouldn't be bored and could watch those who mocked me suffer!
I had to calm down my ragged breathing. I peeked outside my room door.
”Bring me a stress reliever,” I said to the two guards stationed at my room.
I went to my dresser and pulled out my black bag, I threw it on the table and pulled out a chair. Moments later there was a knock on the door.
”come in.”

”Sir is this to your liking?”
”Ah yes!” I said while pointing to the chair.
The guard sat the person in the chair and left.
”beautiful aren't you, your eyes are so clear. That expression you make every time I get close to you never disappoints me.” I said rubbing their shoulder.
”Well let's not be around the bush you and I, it's not like this is our first time doing such a thing don't give me that look. I need to relieve some stress today.”
”Mmmm-Mmhmhm!”
”Oh, I forgot sorry.” I reached out and pulled the tape off the man mouth.
”Who are you people! Let me go!” the man said as he tugged on the straps.
”Shhh shhhh it's ok, don't be scared,” I said opening my black bag. It rolled out on the table. Revealing some silver scalpels, knives, scissors, and other necessities.
”come on man, you don't have to do this!”
”you are right, I don't have to do this. But I'm going to.”
”what have I done to you! I don't know you!”
”Aw, and I just said all that stuff about this wasn't your first time.”
”what? What does that even mean!?”
”don't worry about it. It was just a little roleplaying in my head.”
I pulled out a small scalpel and held it up towards the light. I frowned as I pulled a long strain of brown hair from of the blade.
”HeHe well this isn't mine,” I said, flicking the strain of hair on the man's face. I grabbed the man's hand.
”you know what I have always wondered?” I said cutting the skin beside the man's fingernail. His skin curled up as if you were peeling a potato.
”AhHhHH!”
”I have always wondered, what would happen if someone had a hangnail….”
The man was shaking his arms, his other hand was desperately trying to move. Tugging and pulling on the straps, wanting to stop what I was doing to the other hand.
”How would it feel if it was just pulled all the way up?”
I stopped cutting and grabbed the peeled up skin on his finger. The tip of his finger was bloody. The man breath was heavy as his chest was rising up and down.
”Please...please stop this.” the man face was scrunched up. I guess he could feel that stinging sensation when one gets a hangnail.
I pulled his skin from his finger, it followed up his hand and then towards his arm. It felt like I was ripping a rubber band in half down the middle, stretching it out. You could also say it was like pulling string from off a shirt.
The man rocked back and forth in his chair.
”AACKckKKhHh!”
The skin was pulled out all the way towards his neck now. The skin was curled up in my hands, as blood pooled on his arm.
”interesting, so it continues to go like that. I guess you learn something new every day.”
”you are a MONSTER! FUCK YOU!”
I grabbed the man from under his chin and squeezed his face. ” I am NO MONSTER! RIGHT NOW I AM YOUR GOD!
I took the scalpel and stabbed it under the kneecap.
”AHHHHHHHHHH!”
I wiggled the scalpel causing a bigger opening. Blood flowed down the leg, every time I grabbed it. It made a wet slapping sloshing sound.
”Please…”
”What was that?”
”I have a family.” the man said weakly.
”we all have a family, we all start from somewhere.”
”AHckKCK!”
”I think I see your bone?” I said. I pulled out some scissors from my bag and started cutting down the flesh in the way.
”Hmm, no scream?”
I looked up to see the man had passed out.
”you know when I was very small, my favorite activity in school was cutting and pasting. Hearing the crisp sound the paper made when the scissor blade would cut into it was somehow soothing.”
I looked up at .the man who still had his eyes closed.
”but as I got older I found the sound of muscle tissue being cut is a lot more soothing than paper.
”please…...please stop.”
”Oh, your back! I was just telling you a little story, you didn't miss much.”
”Please...let...me go. I..I want to...see...my..daughter…”
”No, I still have a lot on my mind.”
Later that night a car pulled up in front of a brightly lit building. Out of the car stepped out a handsome young man, dressed in a black slim fit suit. he caught the attention of a few young ladies who smiled in his direction before giggling off.
Xiler smiled and headed inside the casino.
The casino was packed with people, gambling away their money. Slot machines chimed, and the flutter of cards could be heard around the room as dealers dealt out cards.
I walked around a bit to get the layout of the room before I went over to join a table. I played a couple of rounds of blackjack, correction...I won a couple of rounds of blackjack. I guess I really was lucky tonight. A crowd had formed around me watching me play. I was up to $100,000 dollars when I decided to bet it all. Some people thought I was crazy and shook their heads, they thought I should've have walked away with the money I had. Others gasped and held their breath.
I caught the attention of a few guards who slowly moved their way over.
”Sir are you sure this is your finale bet?” the dealer asked.
”Yes.”
He dealt me my cards.
”Hit me.”
”18,” the dealer said. ”would you like to call it.”
”No got me again.”
Someone in the crowd yelled. ”just call it you idiot!”
”Sir?”
”Continue,” I said.
The dealer grabbed the card from on top of the deck.
”3..Blackjack.”
The crowd went crazy and cheered, they applauded my win. I took my winnings and left the table.
”Sir could you come with us please.”
I turned around and smiled.
”sure.”
