Ellie peered through the clean glass windows, slowly sipping her hot takeaway coffee. She looked around cautiously, examining every single detail from the road sweeper's bright uniform to the lowlifes lurking in the deserted squalid streets.

Ellie was following the man with the scar, Jordan. This was the cruel man that succeeded in robbing her on her 18th birthday, at the cost of her innocent mum's physical health. Her mum now needed crutches to walk and Ellie was getting some much-needed revenge. She was diligently watching his every move. She had also pinpointed his next victim. The sadist silently opened the chestnut brown, wooden front door with such force he took a blow and went hurling, painfully crashing into rancid bins and into gorgeous patios. He swiftly picked himself up, embarrassed and scurried in, searching the perimeter for valued possessions.

"Caught red handed!", cried Ellie jumping up and down eagerly in pure satisfaction, excited at the moment he would be caught and put on the spot immediately. He loaded many other things into his faded sack and before he was leaving he left a trademark so people would know who it was, by opening the taps and leaving the cold water running. Just as Jordan was about to make an exit, she through herself in front of him, a broad smile starting to appear.

"Going somewhere?" she teased, beckoning him back inside the now empty bungalow. The trees and flowers celebrated in victory as he was finally caught while the howling wind tutted in disapproval. He clearly rolled his emerald green eyes and stamped back inside.

" Let me go and I will not say a word" he promised, trying to sound reassuring but Ellie refused, growing furious as she played back her 18th birthday in her mind..

" You put my mum on crutches and you want me to let you go? You better have a phenomenal explanation for this because you have absolutely no idea of things I want to do to you!" she screamed in muffled sobs. This was the first time she was opening up, but once she started talking she could not find it in herself to stop and so she ended up pouring out her whole troubled life to delinquent Jordan. After she finished for a minute there was just awkward silence.

"I am sorry," he replied remorsefully " I did not know that and I didn`t realise I put her in that horrid state. Look at me. Look at me!" She reluctantly lifted her head, and stared him in his sorrowful hazelnut eyes as collected tears formed in her eyes. She was furious at what his pettiness had cost her mum but she knew he dearly regretted it. She was certainly in a pickle. He slowly placed his hand on hers and they instantly connected until Ellie withdrew her pale hand like an electric shock.

" I think you know what I now have to do", she sighed, shaking her head back and forth as she bit her nails, as if to create a distraction to the dilemma she was in. Gulping heavily, she stroked his bright red scar and suddenly a various set of suppressed emotions came in like the waves on the sea returning to shore.

Out of nowhere she smelt an dreadful aroma. She desperately looked up and down for a hole big enough to fit in as if to save herself from the repulsive grass green odour engulfing her.
