A Funeral of Innocence

I stood there for what seemed like an eternity, staring at Vicky's face. Trying to memorize every detail. The headmaster and the teachers stood behind me not saying a single word.

"I want to know who sheltered Chen's first disciple. I want every family tied to them. I will wipe them all from this earth. I care not about their power, prestige, or wealth. I will not negotiate or be talked out of this. If you choose to help I will reward you." I said quietly turning away from my love.

The headmaster could see the embers of vengeance burning in my eyes. He saw the hatred and anger that my shoulders carried. He took a step back and looked at the other teachers.

"We can do whatever you need us to do Jason. We will help in any way we can." He said after the teachers all nodded.

"Please help me send them off. I can't let go of her. I can't bear to say goodbye to them" I said hiding my tears.
