"Ez, I am your father! You're not doing the right thing. If you kill me to get to the throne, you won't know the importance of it. Above of all, you would never be the kind of king the underworld deserves!"
The shaking man said, soaked in a blood pool.
"Don't worry father!" Ezekiel said, pulling up the trigger once again. "A mafia king is supposed to be Merciless, and trust me, I can be the cruelest of them all!"
'BANG'
"Goodbye, father! I'm glad you could bring me to the world!"
Ezekiel stuffs the gun inside his pocket and turns to his men who looked at him scared with the way Ezekiel's face was stained with his father's blood that splattered all over.
"All hail Rodriguez's next superior!"
Ezekiel smiled to himself and walked closer taking slow steps towards the men who were extremely loyal to the former king.
"I know my dad was a great superior to you all..." He says putting his gun again the head of the man standing in front, sweating hard.
He was the best man of former king, Ezekiel's late father Rodriguez Orson.
"....But I'm sorry, I can't be him!"
Ezekiel clicked unlock his gun using his thumb, pulling the trigger.
"I'm your new superior, and I'm MERCILESS!"
.....and 'BANG'
He was the next king of Rodriguez.
EZEKIEL ORSON
The Merciless Superior
###############################
"The only son of Supreme Orson of The Rodriguez, Mr. Ezekiel Orson returned from Washington DC last night. Also, it was only last night that Supreme Orson died an unfortunate death. It is said that Mr. Ezekiel could be behind Supreme Orson's death as he seemed to have a motive behind killing him too.
The throne of the Supreme.
It is said that even though Mr. Ezekiel was the only child Supreme Orson ever had, Supreme Orson wasn't planning to announce Mr. Ezekiel his next heir.
Hence, before Supreme Orson could announce his next heir, Mr. Ezekiel tried to remove him out of his way!
Now that the former supreme is dead, according to The Rodriguez 's rule, Mr. Ezekiel Orson, the only offspring Supreme Orson ever had is going to take up the throne to The Rodriguez. This appears to be a bad news to the people associated with The Rodriguez somehow, because Mr. Ezekiel Orson is a very bad choice.
Making him the next supreme could be dangerous to our country."
The news channels read out the news in high pitch in the bedroom of Ella's parents.
"Hmm... Mmmhh... Ma- Ma- Ah- Mh!"
Ella's mother, Mrs. Joelle Hudson started making sounds eagerly trying to grab her husband's attention over the news channels who was busy ironing his shirt in the corner of the room near the iron table.
"What is it Joelle, why are you shouting?"
Ella's father, Gregory Hudson, looked in the direction of his bed where his wife was seated.
Joelle couldn't speak. She was mute. In an accident that took place sixteen years ago, Joelle lost her speech and she became completely paralysed down her chin.
Gregory and Joelle had only one kid, Ella Hudson. The week she was born, this accident took place. That was the accident, when Ella's grandfather passed away too.
"What is it love?" Greg said, taking place besides his wife wrapping his arms around her trying to calm her down but Joelle kept shouting, her eyes moving vigorously towards the television screen asking him to watch desperately.
"Ma- Ma- Hmm- mhhh- Ma- Ma-"
And finally Greg looked at the television now,
"We are standing outside the Rodriguez empire waiting for the Supreme Orson to come out so we can question him about his father's death!"
"What?" Greg furrowed his eyebrows, "Supreme Orson died?"
He looked at his wife and finally the woman smiled from her broken lips and tearful eyes.
She was happy, after a long time, she was genuinely happy.
Greg laughed too, and walked over towards his wardrobe and took out some contract papers
"This is the greatest news in century! I'm so happy that Supreme Orson died! Now that he is dead, there is no importance of this contract!"
He chirped happily and started to tear the contract.
"My little girl is free from marrying that sadist!" Greg exclaimed happily giving himself a shower of the bits of torn up contract happily meanwhile Joelle looked at him so happy and smiled.

"This appears to be a bad news to the people associated with The Rodriguez somehow, because Mr. Ezekiel Orson is a very bad choice.
Making him the next supreme could be dangerous to our country."
"I want this reporter dead in an hour!" Ezekiel cursed, smoking his cigar, drinking his scotch.
His father's corpse was still there inside the room, it was now hanging down from the wall through a hook, his blood continuously bathing the floor and the expensive rug.
"S-supreme Orson, can we not do the final rituals of Sir Rodriguez now?" One of the men in the room stuttered.
Ezekiel shot him a death glare and he immediately died down, choking on his own voice.
"H-he was your f-fa-father after a-all!" the guy stuttered even harder.
Ezekiel scoffed to himself, "Father?"
He got up with a start and circled around to come and stand right before the man's face.
"Do you want to be loyal to your old supreme or wanna dedicate yourself to the new one?" He asked, playing with his gun pressed along the side of his head.
The man sweat hard, he had no idea what to reply.
"Ez-Ezekiel, w-when you were a kid, I-I used to babysit for you! I-I was y-your uncle son?" The old man said again.
Ezekiel clicked his gun and fired the bullet straight inside the old man's head,
"Well then rest in pieces, Uncle!"
Ezekiel smirked to himself and looked up at a 21 year old boy watching the dead corpse of his father with wide eyes, his tears threatening to fall.
After he turned 18, he too followed behind his father and decided to join the Rodriguez and devote his life to Supreme Orson, but now that Orson was dead, and the new one was way too Merciless!
"What do you choose Levi?" Ezekiel asked pointing the gun to his head.
Levi clenched his eyes in horror, starting to think for his life.
He was a loyal man to the former supreme too, but he didn't want to die yet like his father.
"I'm waiting!" Ezekiel said again.
"I-I.." He stuttered, shedding a last tear devoted to his father and the former supreme, he said, "I choose you, Supreme Orson!"
"All hail the almighty!"
Ezekiel mumbled turning his back against Levi, watching his dad's corpse hanging on the wall, bleed out with a crooked smile on his face.
