"Boss." greets his assistants bowing towards him simultaneously when the head assistant just done with making the bug, his punching bag.
"Mr. Z." the head assistant with simple nodded, acknowledged him.
"Release him." ordered Daniel sling his hands on his back. Standing straight with domineering posture.
"Right away, boss."
They started lowered him to the ground and untied the chain from his hand and suddenly the bug fall to the ground with loud thud.
By indicated gesture all of his assistants step away but still ready to go for action if needed. Daniel was their main priorities including his baby girl.
They watched with hawk eyes ready anytime if being order by the boss.
Daniel reached and running his finger to his favorite crowbar on the table. The black one was his most trusted tortured weapons other than his latest guns and sharps pointy blades and stars.
"Make him on his knees."
The nearest guys came to help the bug on his knees.
Daniel looked at bruises, heavily wounded bug. How dared he did something to his other woman: to his workers. How dared he destroyed the families of those poor innocent womans just to what? To followed his stupid boss?
He took the file on the steel easy move table on his left side before opened it and it's showed how the body being discovered, every details of the investigation. The latest news from the latest victim.
He looked at blood drooling pouring out from the bug busted lips. You just the stupid minion to started the games but you forgot about something, bug. You didn't properly covering your job and of course it was your old boss purposely intention to let you being caught by me. What a pathetic moves.
After finishing reading the contents, he sat down and propped his elbows to his both thigh. Entwined fingers together on his lower lip with his thumbs tracing it while holding his chin, staring the bug without blinking.
Thinking.
His head assistant told him before, it took a long time of tortured to made the bug start talking but only a little came out. After about an hour later, the bug requested to see the boss himself.
So happy Daniel's to oblige. Not happy to follow the bug requested but happy to finished him off.
Finally, he smirked before he chuckled deeply sending the goosebumps to everyone. He propped down his hands and lower his head to look at the bug closer.
The bug, what they called him looked starled seeing the young guy in front of him. This was the Mr. Z, they mentioned about? Very young! Looking innocent as ever.
"Dared to touch my girls, huh? Being the middle man lured in them oh...no... threaten them to follow you as the syndicate person. Not really clever, aren't we?"
He says with low voice and emotionless expression.
The bug silent. Didn't say a word, running his sight away and lowered his head once heard Daniel's voices. With strong voices didn't showed that his... Of course stupid, he was the one, the one that his boss told before. The killer, Mr. Z. How? So much young compare to himself but...huh!
The string of bloody drools can be seen clearly. Not very long, he spat the bloody saliva on the floor almost to Daniel's dress shoes.
Daniel raised his eye brow looked deadly to the bug. Don't he realised that he was already in his own pools of blood, smirking at me evilly? Do you wish for your death, bug?
Suddenly, Daniel laughed. Laughed towards the bug. Oh, he doesn't know who was I. Nah...I won't show it because it's such a waste and what on purposed should I do that? To let him tell who?
No! To let him know before he died of my other sides.
The bug doesn't scared and wavered to the boss, at all? Why?
Because, he knew that Daniel's weekness was his woman so he could do whatever he wants with Daniel's woman as long as he can make Daniel remembers, he was not the only one but many out there willingly to see the fallen off the master's killer.
His boss's sworn brother.
"I really DO mind if YOU or any other guys to touch MY woman." Daniel leaned to the steel chair putting his arms on the armrest, crossed his leg emphasized certain words.
"Just by the simple touch, I will let you feel them ten times more pressure on you. As a boss, I don't even touch them and why would you do that to them? Not by the simple touched I believed... but killed them..." he stopped abruptly.
"What if I experimenting to you first before end your life in my killing mode?" stilled in his emotionless state.
Be patient people because the real show is about to begin.
The bug trying hardest to not let his inner emotions to expose his self but the internal tremors started to slip from his pores slowly.
"It's your second time to finished my woman, right? Not until you get caught last day. If you think your old boss could help you make the trap so do I. You just didn't realised it this time, why, because your boss so happy devoured the other female out there. Fu****g them like there would be no tomorrow. So sick!"
He started his strategies.
The bug's face slowly showed the reaction.
Aha...you hate when someone talking despicable about your boss. Good. I was glad to make the list of it.
"I repeat again...I will finished you off brutally and slowly in my very own way. Do you know how to feel died in silence?"
The threatening words so easily spilled off from his mouth.
Just to hear it, the bug guy started to show the physical reaction but Daniel much faster than him. He reached and shoved the crowbar straight into his chest, to where his heart is.
He standing abruptly making the chair fall backward and he pushed the crowbar harder with threatening eyes stepping forward. The reaction on his face were very angry and ready to kill the bug but... he's not gonna do that, yet.
He wants the bug guy to spill everything, to beg for his life, to let him know who was the Daniel when he slowly died!
"Trying to threaten me, huh, bug? You are nothing than a ugly, son of a b****, bug! That I could squeeze easily to your death! The woman you've been killed was my woman, the worker that was belong to someone! The daughter, the sibling, the wife, the mother of someone out there!"
Daniel's trembling figure with outrage clearly shown, tightly hold on the bar on his hand.
"I will hunt your families down one by one to end of your legacies, puny bug!!" be barked of the hates towards the bug. The veins on his forehead and neck were popping out. He tighten and pushing the bar further.
The bug squirming holding the bar to push it away but to no avail. He's too weak to fight back. Grimace on his face, showed that the penetration into his skin really painful. The face contorted with runny bloody sweats and saliva.
"Dare to challenged me again?" Daniel barked again.
Finally, pulled out the bar away from the body part but...being swing it back to the bug's head.
The bug head, called Xan, turned to the edge roughly with new blood trailing down on his head. He slumped to the floor.
"Speak now before I put more misery to your body, to your soul and to your brain!" Daniel seethed to the bug Xan. How was his blood boiling rage to the point he can't holding it any longer.
Still trembling. His people step closing in but to be hold against. Let him settle this.
For long and agony for both, the boss and the bug, slowly came to an end.
"I know you only the minion but your stupid boss doesn't know anything about me because he's old! Slow in every motion in every way. Lack of better motives to approach me. Once, I'll be established here, he will know where he should be standing or end up like his pathetic so called brother! Once again, why did you touched her without her consent before passing her to your stupid a** boss? Why?"
Daniel keep on taunting the guy. Using his weakness of his boss state as the way to push out the information.
"Yo-you w-won't get not-nothing f-from me!" the bug Xan opened his mouth for once.
"Really? I could wait for the rest of the day to enjoy slowly to push you until your last breath." so slow...
Daniel circled the bug by trailing the bar on the floor surfaces to say, the bar is ready on action again.
"Telling you again, as long as you don't tell me your answer I will wait and push you until your edge before ended your life pathetically and....sending you eye and hand as the gift to your boss."
He stopped circling and nearing the bug. Slowly, he leaned down before whispering and tracing down the bar along the bug's beaten and bruised body that sending another wave of goosebumps whenever the bar touched the uneven skin and colourful bruised beaten body.
"Your body will be turn to ashes and will be discarded in front of your boss entrance mansion...It's your choice. I could spare yourself if you tell me. That I can promised. You'll be treated to our doctor until in your best condition and send away with new life. Sound nice, isn't it?"
No! It was a lie. You won't able to see tomorrow for yourself anymore, bug!
Xan, stilled place his palm on the chest swallowed the saliva back. He's breathe a bit shaky. Slightly movements on his upper body sending the pain skyrocketing and the blood came out from the opened wounds.
He's knees below in numb state. He couldn't move because compared to his boss tortured methods this was too much for his age. At least his boss still have sympathy for his long periods of time in his services to heavily tortured for simple mistakes.
Too much pain from the previous battered injury condition and plus with Daniel's wrath, he have to spill it. What options do he have? His body can't take any more that beyond damaged body.
No! You can't do that! He's our boss. How did you promised to stay loyal to him.
Yes, I have to let it out. I'm getting old and my body couldn't take any of this. Just enough for the tortured. I won't spill on others.
Please, no! You'll ruining what he planned for all those years.
I have too.
No! No! No!
The war within himself between the wise brain and heart mixed feelings made his body stay stunned to the bloody floor.
"He...he...asked me -to-to do t-that in order to let y-you...ba-back off..."
"Why?" Daniel asked curtly. He's mood damped. The patience he was holding started to slip off from his fingers. Couldn't wait to end this.
The promised he made about can wait a whole day was a lie also. He was not a very patient person when involved with this kind of situation but for his baby girl, he could wait...for this moment.
"As a re-reminder...the re-returned b-body...gift to you." the bug body started to sway side to side. He's looked tired from his blood drained.
"I see...let's end this."
Daniel's sadistic chuckle echoes in the room. While clutching to his crowbar, he continued to laugh with upward head before he abruptly stopped. He stand still in front of the bug looked deadly in the eyes.
He smiled triumphantly inwards. Just this kind of tortured, the bug already to give up easily and what he was assumed before was the real motives of the old boss movements. What a loser. Still believe in those ways? People will easily find your weak point and destroyed you with closed eyes, without breaking a sweat!
"Thanks for the info...Xan. Hope your new journey will be smooth and silky like the way you've been spare."
With tired condition, Xan eyes shown a little gleam, unbelievably with the utter words came from Daniel's mouth.
He kept his promises.
That's what he thought! But his mind already started playing a trick. Lack of oxygen and blood losing, his brain hazily hallucinating about the impossible. He lost it for a second before the crowbar fly harshly like a golf strike towards his head!
