The voices make a point, why do you do this? Why do you do the things you do? You have taken 14 lives in your "career" as you call it. The first three were well over a year ago, it has been stressful at work again so you went to a nearby ally to smoke. The three men were quick to surround you, when they discovered you had no money the waded in punching and kicking. You probably would have died had it not been for the old butcher knife laying next to the dumpster.
You finished the last man off screaming after a short chase down the ally. It had been amazing, you had always been so weak, so helpless. Yet here was power, here was something you were finally good at. You rushed home in excitement.
Your not sure why, but you didn't tell mom. She was always so disappointed in you. You knew it, just like everyone else. Now you had finally found something you were good at, but still you didn't say anything to her. This line of thought hurts your head so you stop thinking about it.
Instead you skip to the beginning of this month. You hadn't done any of your "true" work since last year. You had always been to hesitant. You would often take out the mask mother had made for you one Halloween when you were a kid, it had been torn is some places. Thankfully mom had shown you how to use a needle and thread when you were young. One of the few things you ever did right.
Then once more it was a hard day at work, and you decided to take a walk in the park late one night. You brought your "face" as you had begun to call it, the old butcher knife as well. Not entirely sure why, but they made you feel better.
Thats when you saw her, a whore you were sure of it. Despite her lowly status her eyes were very beautiful, a lovely shade of green. So you took them. Of course it would be wrong to take something without leaving something else in exchange. So you worked quickly and sewed two green buttons back into her eye sockets.
Maybe the voices would be happy with this answer? Maybe not, regardless you were good at this, it makes you happy. It makes all the bad feelings and urges go away.
The woman was getting closer to the bushes you were hiding in. She has the loveliest blue eyes...
