Prologue
Scarlett was just a mere four years old playing with her Barbie’s at her father’s feet under his big wooden desk, popping the heads off was fun for her. It made her father smile in joy at his daughter, whose strawberry blonde hair was in braids that he has done for her this morning She had her mother’s hair, but her father’s eyes were almost black. Sighing he looked back up at the man who stood on the other side of the desk before him all seriousness was back on his stern face. Angelo Sergiaino was always serious about his family and the business, this week’s shipment of ammo and guns was seized by the cops. Fucking pigs didn’t know how to stay in pens, though they’ve always been on his back since he found his beloved wife dead.
Amelia was the light of his life and a part of him died along with her. It was after he had come back from a business dinner with Donatello from the north, only to find her corpse hanging from the ceiling fan in their room. Her skin was a pale ghastly white and her tongue hanging out of her mouth was a horrid purple color. His Amelia was dead, all he had left of her was pictures, memories, and their sweet angel Scarlett whose hair was once blonde was starting to turn into a red. Coming back to reality the man that stood once before started to yell at him in profanities.
“Your wife was nothing, but an American slut you picked up off the streets!” The man had yelled from across the desk spittle flying from his mouth.
That was more than enough to put him in the mood to murder this sorry sack of merda. Right, when he was about to shoot the man he thought he had grabbed his gun that was hidden under his desk, instead, he grabbed one of Scarlett’s Barbie’s that didn’t have a head that wearing a pink velvet type fabric dress.
“What the-?” he said looking at his and before hearing a familiar click sound.
*Click*
Bang!
Scarlett his sweet little girl had his pistol in her tiny hands she had yelped from the recoil of the gun surprising her, but that isn’t what surprised her father no it was where she shot the man that surprised him. She shot him in the balls! Covering his own manhood as he stood it, was a place that no man would ever think anyone would shoot there. The man was curled up in the fetal position holding what was left of his crotch. She crawled out from under the desk holding the gun still in her tiny hands, he could hear the thud of the gun and she crawled, she walked up to him pulling the hammer of the pistol making a dangerous and menacing clicking sound as she cocked it. Angelo could feel the room grow cold as he broke into a cold sweat, he never would have thought or imagined his daughter doing such a thing at an early age.
Putting the gun’s barrel to the man’s temple her black eyes look down at the man completely emotionless, but a crooked grin soon was on her face as she tilted her head. Her father looked at her watching her in horror and pride as his almost black eyes have the emotion that he had never had or felt. Fear. He was fearful not for a sweet little girl that he thought was sweet, no he was scared of his child. Never had he thought that his child will pull out a gun and shoot a man put at four that is what she had done before his eyes, he knew that the family's curse was still rooted in him but he would have hoped that it would have thinned out by now. It did not.
“Bye-bye.” That was all that his four-year-old daughter said before pulling the trigger with both index fingers and the gun’s recoil almost made her fall backward, it was still shocking to him.
Blood spattered on her face in the walls of his office she slowly turns towards her father.
“Papa can we get ice cream now?” she asked smiling brightly with one of her adorable smiles, but in the future, that smile would bring blood and fear. It made his blood run cold as he had a smile brought to his lips.
“Of course sweethear, how about we get you a new Barbie?"
"Oh! Can I get the Vet barbie?"
"Which ever one you want."
"Yay!" Scarlett said as she ran out the study and Alex saw the tiny terror run.
"I'm scared to ask," Alex said pointing.
"She killed a man and deserves it."
"Ah of course."
After that Scarlett had a bath and they went to the toy store picking out a doll, as Angelo looked up he saw a familiar man and boy who was getting the new action figure of the power rangers. They looked at each other before giving each other a curt nod.
"Who is that daddy?" Scarlett asked as she held a teddy bear.
"Just a work friend."
"Ooooh okay!"
After that day it was sure and sealed that Scarlett will grown into her devilish ways.
