The moon cast its silver glow over the deserted school compound, illuminating the scene like a macabre stage. Jasher pushes Veronica onto the swing and the scraping sound pierces the quiet air as the swing moves back and forth.
He grasps the sculpting knife, its blade glinting in the faint light. Before him, Veronica trembles, her eyes wide with fear. The sound of her own terrified breathing was the only soundtrack to her final moments.
'You played me, now who ends up on a playground? You!’ Jasher hisses, his voice low and venomous. ‘Tonight, I sculpt a new reality.'
With a swift, precise motion, he plunges the knife into her flesh, carving his twisted art into her very being. The sound of her screams was music to his ears, a symphony of revenge.
He watches, feeling tingles as the light leaves her eyes. That's the moment he loves the most, ridding the world of a villain, writing a new chapter, cleansing the evil and Injustice that no one cares about.
Blood sputters out as he pulls out the knife, stabbing her over and over again till her scream dies and she hangs limp on the swing.
Taking out his design, he places it on her lap, making her hold it still with her hands. It's a rectangular cardboard with the words;
Echoes never die.
He pushes the swing lightly and she starts to move to and fro, the eerie creaks filling the quiet night
