Karen walked towards the door to her boutique with the dangling keys in her hand. The metal sounds of keys shoving the other as she walked, annoyed her greatly. She could feel her perspiration dewing her skin from her forehead to any parts of skin that was showing. The cold sweat from her body soaked through her s.h.i.+rt, making her s.h.i.+ver even more than the breezy night.

As her fingers tightened around the k.n.o.b and rotated it, she noticed something abnormal. Just a gentle push on the door and already, an acrid smell worked up her nostrils; almost making her vomit on the spot. She slowly stepped backwards and minimized her movements. Perhaps, she still had enough time to make a run for it, or so she thought she did.

When the door creaked slightly opened and n.o.body entered the following seconds, one of the guards already climbed out of the window and blocked off the entrance. There was only one entrance and exit, so if she were to escape, she would be caught.

Sweat dripped down her ghastly pale skin. Her eyes widened as she took deep breaths slowly. On the count to three in her mind, she turned away and ran for the steps. Unfortunately, the guard inside the room would never let her get out of the building.

Using an umbrella's hook handle, the guard stepped out of the boutique and tripped her ankle with just the right amount of strength. She rolled down the stairs and b.u.mped her head against the stone wall with great force. "Sss...," she touched the back of her head and noticed the tall figure approaching her.

His face was masked and clearly, his intentions were bad. Quickly, she crawled as she failed to balance herself to run again. She could only blame herself for slacking off in exercising normally. Her palms slipped on the first step of the stairs and her body slid down again.

"fucck..," she cursed. Tired of chasing after her, the guard prevented her from crawling any further. The moment she moved again, the umbrella hook handle was already around her neck. If she moved even an extra step, her neck would be snapped.

"Move and you die instantly." Since she was taken hostage by her own umbrella handle, she could only surrender for the time being. While waiting for further instructions from Zi Yan, Karen randomly spurted out words to bribe him. From giving him a huge ransom to trying to seduce him, she had failed miserably.

He tied her up using cable wires and shoved her to the cold floor. With the lights and heat off, Karen could only risk saving herself by screaming. Of course, she had been warned beforehand by the guards that if she makes any more attempts on escaping or hinting other people about her situation, then she will be meeting her end much sooner.

With her IQ and EQ being a negative, she decided to scream, "help!!!!! ****!!!! Kidnap!!!" Immediately upon her shout, a cold sharp tip slashed across her face. One slash wasn't enough that Kitty took the sharp object in her left arm and slashed the other side of Karen's cheeks deeply.

The crimson liquid flowed down on both sides of her cheeks. It wasn't until the stench reached her nose and liquid had flowed to her neck did she realize that she was disfigured. Her eyes rolled upwards to meet a pair of fearless eyes.

"K..Kitty...?? You set me up??!!" Karen struggled to break free from the cables, but the specially tied knot could only be untied by the guard.

"Set you up? You're making yourself sound like a victim. You f.u.c.ked up my life and flipped it upside down. You're only asking for Karma to get to you sooner. I'm playing fair. What they did to me, I'm only returning it twice the folds to you. It's okay if I only have one arm to break your two arms."

Karen shook her head with tears streaming down her unevenly split scar; stinging the wound. "Did you know that I did everything just to lure you out and here I thought, wow! I could get away from them. I'm being poisoned and these two men dragged me into your boutique. They said I could take revenge for myself before heading back to that lady, who tortured me. The main culprit was you for trying to scheme against someone you have no knowledge of harming!"

Before Karen could scream on top of her lungs, Kitty took a claw hammer from Karen's supplies box that the guard had discovered earlier. Zi Yan already instructed Kitty to extract Karen's teeth using the claw side of the hammer and break her arms for revenge.

Zi Yan was playing it fair and square. Whoever laid their fingers on Susu will sacrifice their arms and lose something precious. Since Kitty had her punishment, Zi Yan wrapped her wounds up and gave her some pain killers to act out the remaining of the Cat and Rat game.

The slicing face part wasn't part of the instructions. Kitty was not someone who would take her enemies lightly, especially one who is tied up and can't fight back. The guards found duct tape and other tools to keep Karen's head in place with her mouth opened wide.

"Have you ever heard of the saying that liars will lose all their teeth? Well, I'll teach you a nice lesson for lying to me and breaking your d.a.m.n promise!" Using the claw side of the hammer, she started with Karen's front teeth and brutally removed it. Afraid that the b.l.o.o.d.y gums would choke her to death, the guards stuffed a towel to soak up the blood as the process continued.

Without any painkillers, Karen felt the cold tool against the back of her teeth, heard the small cracks as each tooth separated from her gums and tasted the heavy splas.h.i.+ng iron flavored liquid that she used to enjoy while eating steak. When Kitty was finished with the extraction, Karen only had a few tooth's left inside her mouth. The only reason why some weren't removed was because those were bigger in size and the bleeding would be too much for Karen to handle.

She might even die from bleeding if the rest were extracted. The originally white towel was now red, stinky and mushy with pieces of mouth gum stuck to it. Once that part was completed, Kitty smudged the blood from the claw side onto Karen's clothing.

The guards were told to a.s.sist Kitty in the process of torturing Karen, but must make sure she remains alive. After the bloodiness was wiped away, Kitty smirked and walked in circles with the hammer in her hands.

"Which hand was it that selected all my videos, pictures and evidence of my past? Was it your left hand that registered the accounts on the top p.o.r.n websites? Or...your right that uploaded everything for the world to see?!" She smashed the large cylindrical striking head with a flat surface of the hammer on her fist; breaking Karen's wrist.

"Mgghhhphhh!!!" Karen closed her eyes as her eyes dried up from dehydration.

"What? Painful? Then you should think of circ.u.mstances before committing cruel acts. Your fingers did me wrong and your mouth were full of lies. After your teeth, come your fingers. Aren't you a designer? Did you think you could design my life like that? Huh?! I'll let you know what you'll have without these f.u.c.king fingers!"

The guards spread Karen's fingers and paid her palms flat on the floor for Kitty to smash each bone she could crack with that hammer. After the right hand was crushed with visible bleeding nails, cracked skin and discolored bruising, it was time to work on her left hand.

Karen blacked out towards the end when her left pinky got smashed. Everything felt numb to her at that point as her body was in a mixed confused state of where the pain was coming from. After the task had been done, the guards took them back to meet Zi Yan, who had other plans for them.
