The smell of blood, gunpowder and death filled the air . The numerous helicopters sounded like beating drums announcing the execution of criminals . Shouts and screams blended with gunshots . Smoke rose in the night sky like an evil phantom about to swallow the moon and the stars .
Inside the mansion, a young woman wearing a white dress watched this scene from hell . She stood in the dark, sweeping her emerald eyes across all the carnage below her . Moonlight reflected on her golden hair .
She looked otherworldly, like a fairy watching mortals kill each other while she remained detached and pure .
Unfortunately, she was not an immortal . She was to die this night .
She closed her eyes and sighed . She took one last look at the nightmare playing outside, turned around, and walked towards the grand piano in the room .
The five bodyguards protecting her also shifted with her movement, but otherwise remained silent and invisible .
She knew that this night would be her last . She didn't know whether her father, older brother, and mother were still alive . Perhaps they were killed already . From what she saw outside, the enemies planned to annihilate all of them .
With her great ears, she heard the enemies finally invading the mansion . The gunshots rang louder as they drew nearer .
Her five bodyguards tensed and stepped closer towards her . Their murderous eyes locked at the door .
Gently, she sat in front of the piano . It would be her end soon . The least she could do was play music to accompany the souls of the killed this night as they leave this world . Taking a deep breath, her fingers danced on the keyboard .
Beethoven's "Für Elise" started seeping through the sounds of murder in the air .
Bang!
The door to the room crashed open . The bodyguards immediately started trading shots with the soldiers and police .
The smell of blood and sweat grew stronger, but the beautiful young woman in white played the piano as if nothing was happening around her . Even when two bullets pierced her left shoulder and right hip, she still continued playing without missing a beat .
The music complemented the sounds of carnage to the point that the soldiers and police listening felt goosebumps . The five bodyguards fought to protect their lady without any regard to their own lives . They were trained to be emotionless assassins from a young age . They killed a few, but they were only five while the squad surrounding them were many times more than them .
Finally, the last of the bodyguards died .
"Hands in the air!" shouted a police officer .
She ignored him, closing her eyes and swaying as she continued to play the piano .
The soldiers and the police officers had their guns raised and locked on to the beautiful woman playing as if she was the only person in the world . Her pristine white dress was now dyed red, blood continuously flowing from her wounds .
Everyone in the room was mesmerized by her otherworldly beauty and elegance .
What a pity .
A soldier gritted his teeth . "We have orders . Fire!"
The woman smiled softly before bullets barraged her back, her blood showering up in the air like rose petals, and then splashing on the ground like raindrops .
The music stopped abruptly .
Her body slumped over the piano, banging against the keyboard and producing a discordant tune . Her emerald eyes swiftly drained of life, yet they were still beautiful .
She slid to the floor and fell hard .
"At last, I'm free . " Her voice was a soft whisper .
Then she breathed her last .
