Frederick’s face darkened as he glared at the note. He recognized it immediately–it was something they used when families of their victims didn’t follow their instructions to the letter. In such cases, even after receiving the ransom, they would kill the victims to remind everyone of their power. 

“No, no, n 

my children!” Vanessa cried, pressing her daughter’s head to her chest. “My babies… n 

“Why are you crying?” a voice cut through her anguish. 

no…” 

As they turned, they saw about ten people standing before them, dressed in black suits and hiding their identities with motorcycle helmets and body gloves. Each held a baseball bat or metal pipe. 

“You” Frederick started, his anger bubbling over, 

“Hey Vanessa, tell me, did you enjoy how I handed over your daughter?” one of the masked figures asked, ignoring Frederick entirely. 

“Monster, how could you?” Vanessa shouted, her face twisted with fury as she set her daughter’s head down and stood, fists clenched, ready to confront the killer. 

“Haha, seriously? I’m the monster?” the person mocked with a sarcastic laugh. “I just followed your example. I got my five–year–old son back with that note. Remember him? The one you kidnapped a few years ago?” 

A cold shiver ran down their spines as they recalled that day. They knew now they were in deep trouble. 

“My son had a whole life ahead of him, and his only ‘crime‘ was being my child. All because I had a substantial amount of money saved in the bank.”

“What? Now that I’ve avenged my son by taking your daughter’s life, you want to apologize?” the masked figure taunted, brandishing the weapon in their hand. “And don’t worry, for your personal comfort, I tortured her just like you tortured my little boy.” 

“Interestingly,” another person spoke up, “we will be eternally grateful to Deborah Anderson for giving us this valuable gift? 

“What?” Frederick looked terrified. “What are you talking about?” 

*Because we were all waiting for the perfect moment to get our revenge on you,” another person said. 

“And it was a relief for us to know that this girl had more power than you and decided to take revenge for all the pain you caused… so we came together to support her in secret because we all share the same goal: to end you and your rotten family.” 

“And luckily for us, we only had to cooperate with our skills and perform a minor favor in return to enjoy this great moment.” 

“You’re despicable. I understand you hate us… but my children were innocent!” Vanessa shouted. 

“That’s a lie.” 

“They were never innocent.”

“They deserved to suffer because they were your children.” 

“It’s the only justification we need. But if you want to put it in human terms… they weren’t exactly angels, were they?” 

“They followed in the footsteps of their beloved parents.” 

“And that’s a danger to the rest of the world.” 

“You resentful wretches,” Frederick said, “your pathetic revenge was to hunt down my children?” 

“Not just that… And besides, you might be complaining now, but our reason is more noble than yours, given that you killed our children and relatives for money.” 

“You hunted them for money.” 

“And now you’ll understand that that money was a loan. It’s time for you to pay it back with interest.”
