# ⁞ board daze

@☾ Seunghyun³ "Estate." Ning scoffed as she couldn't take in a word he said. His words alone made clear he didn't know the horrors her mother put Ning through. "Oh, you didn't know my mother too well then," She her heels again to where she could watch the stranger as he treated his wound while walking backwards. "Thank you for ending her. Did you just come for my gratitude?" the lady clapped her hands, grinning obnoxiously. "Bravo then," she nodded, before turning again and going off into the night.

((I figured we could jump forward to another time?))

@♔ Ning³ "Your mother's estate." Seunghyun felt the pain grow into a burning sensation and he knew if he didn't receive medical care soon the bullet wound could get infected. He took out a knife from his pocket and went to work on cutting into his pants. Tightly gritting his teeth he attempted to talk in spite of it because it might be his only chance to talk to her, since she would probably disappear again afterwards. "Why wouldn't you care about the woman who gave you life? She didn't want this for you-" He felt the gun barrel to his forehead and stilled his movements, knife in hand. "Please spare me just five more minutes... I was responsible for her death." He stared down at the wound and dug a knife into it, grunting from the pain as he drove deeper into the wound, wanting to retrieve the bullet.

@☾ Seunghyun³ “Assets?” What the hell was this guy talking about ? Her mom had no assets. Ning knew she was sold into slavery. Or did the witch just think it funny to send children into ion? Either option didn’t matter- her mother was still a and Ning wanted nothing to do with such scum.
“I don’t give a about this chic. My mother is dead in a respects.” Ning stepped forward, pressing the end of her weapon into the ’s forehead. “If you try to follow me again, I will be sure to aim for your end.” She vowed, pulling the gun back and putting it back into her belt, before turning on her heels and walking away.
‘Mom? Are you kidding me?’ She couldn’t believe her mom was reaching out. Now of all ducking times. ‘Probably wants more money…’ as if her daughters life wasn’t enough…

@♔ Ning³ At first Seunghyun thought he had won, called her bluff and he was so close to turning back around. But he was momentarily distracted by the thoughts of Lingli, since the two even sounded alike. The similarities were uncanny. He knew that Lingli was an honest and kind-hearted person so surely her daughter would echo the same- That trail of thought was abruptly halted by a searing pain to the man's shin. Seunghyun dropped his gun, growling profanities as he crouched down to nurse the wound. He glanced over his shoulder at her. "What the -" It hadn't punctured a major artery so Seunghyun was relieved but it was hard to stand on as he stumbled down onto the pavement, blood spilling out from his leg. He held onto it to apply pressure. "Going back? There's nowhere to go back to- all of her assets were taken by that son of I killed-" He realised he had said too much and winced in agony.

@☾ Seunghyun³ Ning’s brows furrowed. The other was a bloody idiot. He lowered his weapon and even dated her to shoot him. Why? “So you want to die?” She asked, gun straight and steady. Ning didn’t kill for no reason, but am injury or two wouldn’t be out of her wheelhouse. Make on impression on her apparent stalker.
At the mention of a woman’s name, something squeezed in Ning’s chest, as if a tight hand was choking out her major artery. Why was he bringing this…
Her mother.
That .
The females grip immediately tightened, as she aimed and fired a shot into the males shin, her teeth grit in rage. “I’m not going back. You can make sure she rots in hell for me.” She spat onto the concrete, so repulsed by someone knowing her sick excuse of a parent.

@♔ Ning³ What had made her care so little for her life after her mother had given everything for her child to live? The thought irritated Seunghyun and he lowered his gun. "Tell you what, I'll give you a chance to shoot me first. If you take it I'm a dead man, if you don't you'll lower your gun, how about that for confidence?" He held his gun out to the side as he turned away from her, exposing his back to her gun. It would be an easy shot if she took it and he would probably die almost immediately. "You're Lingli's daughter." He used the name she had used all of her career, hoping it would be enough to trigger the woman's curiosity as he spoke. Somehow being turned away made it easier for the man to contain his emotions. "I knew your mother."

@☾ Seunghyun³ The dude was massive- his height alone a story taller then Ning's body. Though her lips moved slightly in discomfort at his physical advantage, she kept her eyes sharp as she took two steps back, seeing as he also had his gun out ready to shoot. "Oh? Your confidence is amiss." she let him know, the safety off as she got ready to fire off a round or more. "Care to explain yourself, so shall we see who's finger really is the fastest?" Ning wasn't afraid of a bullet. She had been beaten and bruised before, and while she bet it hurt like a , she was a survivor. She could take a bullet for the sake of the kill. "Three second." she warned him, mentally preparing herself as she counted down in her head.

@♔ Ning³ Following the young woman Seunghyun stuck to the shadows, walking with quiet footsteps he had stalked her throughout her work. It couldn't be her, could it? Seunghyun had so many questions he wanted answered but he couldn't. There wasn't much he could find on her and that resorted to him following her around like some creep. However, it was unmistakable. She had her mother's eyes, the slim and petite figure he remembered holding in his arms so many times. The likeness was so striking that the first time he saw her he cracked, a man who was usually devoid of all emotion and that was how he knew it had to be her. It had to be Lingli's daughter.
After following her around a few times he wanted to be seen, some twisted of part him wanted answers and so he didn't try so hard to hide. Whether it was completely intentional, his subconscious or circumstance from the deadly silent area Seunghyun appeared from the shadows. Dressed from head to toe in a myriad of black, he held his gun out to her in return. "Shoot and it'll be the last thing you do, I can assure you my finger is much faster than yours." He replied in kind, towering in front of her.

@☾ Seunghyun³ It had been a long, but good night. The stake out was successful, no body was discovered or injured, and Ning had marked off every box possible to ensure a star grade from her bosses. Now, in simple black long sleeve and pants, she let her strawberry blonde hair down from it's bun, so it could flow freely in the wind. She walked through the skatepark, which was empty at 3am on a Tuseday. Dragging her feet purposefully, she knew she was too excited to sleep, and too alert to be at home. But the adrenaline was actually helpful- as she felt a presence close by.
The 20 year old haulted her walking, feeling the presence stop as well. She sighed, believing she couldn't have been tracked from the route she was using to get back to base, but she was clearly wrong. And now, blood would be drawn. Ning grabbed her gun out from her belt and spun to face behind, ready to fire upon any sudden movements. "Come out little . Your game is over." she was harsh and assertive, making clear that she was not the type to be messed with, and whoever was following her was about to meet their maker.
