Today is the very day that we finally get over the bullshit that Lyde started. I faced the road head on even though I don't really feel good about what might happen.
My hands were trembling while I stare onto the area near the west bridge. I'm nervous about facing that sadist psychopath again. Remembering how he looked at me closely before like he's about to kill sent shivers to my spine.
"Ah, snap out of it." I told myself, lightly slapping my cheeks.
I wandered my eyes around the area to look for Keto, this was the first phase of the plan. I have to know where Keto is and make him witness my death. My right hand was already prepared to send the location message to Lyde as a signal when it's time for them to show up and kill me. The fake blood is also prepared inside my jacket so that my death will be really convincing.
"Shit." I might crap myself with this crazy stunt I'm about to pull. And just when I was about to take a turn, there I saw Keto with a few of his gang at a sidewalk.
Click. I immediately sent press. Ah shit, this better turn out good.
"H-Huh?" My whole being felt so unsettled that it moved on its own. Both of my feet kept stepping back away from where Keto was, and then Lyde and Ace showed up. They were wearing masks and black hoodies to make them unrecognizable, and they caught most of the people's attention at the streets when Lyde pointed a fake gun at me.
"YOUR TIME ENDS HERE, LYDE TOBIN!" Lyde yelled. He sounds scared with that tone but he looks eager as well to end this too.
Before he pulls the trigger, the pack of fake blood was already on my hands. The fake gun was only made to produce a loud gun sound so if he ever pulls the trigger, I'll have to quickly smack the pack of fake blood so that it'll pop open on my forehead and anyone who sees me will really think I'm dead with all the blood oozing out.
I closed my eyes and waited for the sound. 1… 2… 3!…
…what the hell is taking them so long?
As I glanced at the two idiots, Ace was stupidly watching Lyde one-handedly struggles to pull the trigger on the fake gun.
'FUCKKK! I FORGOT TO TEACH THEM ABOUT THE FIRING-PIN SAFETY!!!' I was the one who bought that, and I haven't really told them anything about. Tsk, I must be getting contaminated with Lyde's stupidity.
"Haa? Now look at what we got here!" Shit, that voice!
Looking behind me, Keto and his gang were already there. "K-Keto!"
He smiles at me and had a really terrifying expression on his face. "Long time no see, Lyde. Where the hell have you been?"
"I!…" oh no, everything is falling apart! Plan A is ruined!!
"We'll talk later, I have to deal with those two idiots first." I knew he was referring to Ace and Lyde, and Keto seemed really excited to do some action. This is hella bad. Lyde looks at me and became froze in shock of Keto quickly approaching them like a mad dog.
'GO! RUN FOR YOUR LIVES!' I mouthed repeatedly.
Fortunately, Ace was able to get my message and nods in response. He starts up his engine and tried to get away from here. My heart kept raising faster when Keto was fastly catching up to them though he wasn't really able to catch them. He instead grabs a large rubble at the sides of the street and showed off a great throw. The rubble then gets to Lyde and hits him on the back.
I almost screamed to warn Lyde but Keto would become suspicious of me if I try to help my supposed enemies.
"…come back again so I can kill you!" Said the sadist psycho, he even waved good bye at the two idiots until they were out of sight.
Now that things didn't go as planned, the only option left was plan B. When Keto turns to look back and gestured at me to come to him, I had no choice but to do as I was told. "Ah, I'm so fucked up." I wanted to run away from this nightmare but Keto's men were surrounding me and giving me all those murderous looks.
"Keto, I—ack!" Before I could explain myself, Keto had his fist flying on my face. I fell on my back from shock and I immediately squirmed a few steps away from that psychopath.
"That punch is for making me wait too long. Ahh, I'm really upset you made me wait for a whole week! And you suddenly showed up with a bunch of idiots after your life?… hahaha!" He laughs as he comes closer and even offered a hand to me "You're one interesting shit."
"I-I…" I didn't want to take this psychopath's hand because he'll definitely beat me up again, so I just stood up on my own and had to make more distance away from this psychopath.
"Hm, I did you a favor with Jeiro and now that I even saved your life here you have no choice but to come with me wherever I go now. You owe me your life, Lyde!" Keto rushes to my side and had his left arm weighting down on my shoulders.
"T-Thank you very much!" That was all I could say to this sadist freak. I'm trembling even more with him being so close, I badly want to push him away and run for my life but this sadist psychopath got an iron fist. I just wiped the blood on my nose with my sleeves.
Keto made his fellow members gather around us and introduced me to them while clinging onto my shoulder. "This is Lyde Tobin, the very man who brought down the bull of Wild Beasts, Jeiro! Lyde shall officially be my right hand, and will be known as the Wolf's pup. Welcome to the gang, Lyde." Many were displeased with Keto's announcement, but they know better to just cheer and applause instead.
I let out a weak sigh knowing this Plan B sucks.
