Meeting Willow (Part 1)
Smiling to no one in particular, Arabella left the door.
"I will grandma." Aurora said.
"My time has come, child, remember not to allow evil rule your heart no matter what, temptation will come but try to defeat it." Marita told Aurora yawing. "I feel sleepy."
"Good night grandma." Aurora said and pecked her both cheeks then stood up from the bed and placed the diamond into the locket. She picked up her novel and left for her room.
"Where were you!" Arabella demanded once she saw her twin.
"With Grandma, why?"
Arabella stared at Aurora's neck and couldn't see the necklace, she stared at her hands and didn't see it. She saw the novel.
"Can I see that?" Arabella requested and Aurora gave her the book immediately. Checking it, she didn't see the necklace and gave the novel back to Aurora. "Did grandma tell you anything?"
"Nope, she didn't." Aurora answered going to the other side of the bed, since they shared the Queen size bed, and sit down to continue reading her novel.
The next day, Marita didn't wake up.
A week later she was buried beside her daughter.
Their family lawyer read out the will their late mother and grandmother had entrusted to him. Arabella inherited half of everything including the duplex. Aurora on the other hand inherited Marita house and some cash.
Arabella sold her own share of properties including the duplex and left Bradford.
Aurora put her own money into good use and further her education.
Five Years later, Aurora, now 23, graduated from law school as one of the best students and was offered a job at one of the leading law firms as she was best as a criminal law attorney. Ever since Arabella left Bradford, Aurora hasn't heard a word from her. She hoped Arabella is safe and alive wherever she is.

"RL failed to keep his promise Willow, you need to eliminate him." Philip, one of the leading drug dealer bosses, told Willow who could only nod his head. They were sitting opposite each other with one other. Willow's face mask covered almost all his face except for his eyes and mouth. He could hold his breath as much as he could whenever he was in a meeting with any of the Mafia bosses.
Willow was wearing a black Jean and a black top which made his muscles stand out, he wore a pair of black sneakers to go with. His long dark hair packed in a ponytail.
"PJ couldn't pay up the huge money he collected form us. He has went into hiding with his wife and daughter." David- he sell and deals with all kinds of weapons and was also new in the Mafia world- also told Willow who nodded his head. "I need you to clear him with his family off the surface of the earth."
"Done." Willow said and left abruptly without another word.
"How rude." David said and faced Philip, "Are you sure he is capable of taking care of the job?"
"Absolutely David." Philip replied.
"He didn't even ask for his half payment for the jobs he is about to carry out." David said after a while.
"Does he look like he is killing for the money, David? Lucifer kills for fun, and every Mafia boss knows this, that is why we call him to do the killings and he won't collect a dime from us." Philip told his friend.
"Wow, he is Lucifer?"
"Yeah."
"I thought the Lucifer I had always heard my late father would be old and not looking so young and dresses simple."
"No one knows his secret of his youthfulness, but mind you, he may look so simple, but he is extremely dangerous."
"I know, my father says a lot about him. If this is Lucifer I have been hearing of then I am 100% sure he will carry out this job perfectly." David said with a smile which Philip returned.

RL was his first assignment and he wasted no time in tracking the man. Willow always knows where his Victims are and that has always helped him. He was at the rooftop of RL, watching him.
RL was in a huge swimming pool with eight ladies, who wore only bras and panties. They were drinking some champagne.
'Fools, if only they know they would die soon.'
He thought.
He saw when RL ordered one of the guards to go and get something for him. The guard soon returned with a cheque, a notebook and a biro which he gave to RL and returned to his position.
RL bodyguards, about fifteen (15) in numbers, stood around alert.
He did an acrobat flip and landed besides one of the bodyguards. Without wasting time, he used his razor sharp sword and removed the head of the bodyguard from his body. It landed inside the pool and then the screams- coming from the ladies- and the bodyguards running to attack Willow. Some of them were holding guns and even when they shot, their bullets couldn't penetrate Willow's body.
In the space of three minutes, Willow had killed all the bodyguards except for the ladies and RL.
"Whatever amount you were given to kill me Lucifer, I will double it for you." RL said, trying his luck, he knows Lucifer well. Once he sets on something, there is no going back, how did he know? Willow had done three killings for him.
Willow snorted loudly and took the notebook and biro from RL and wrote something on it which he gave to RL.
"Read it aloud to the ladies." Willow ordered. It's a pity they will also be joining RL.
"Do not follow someone like me in your next life because I am penniless, hopeless, homeless and jobless."
