Chereads / Sakura in the Gravity / Chapter 2 - The Botched Job

Chapter 2 - The Botched Job

A man walks to a video games venue to see a well-dressed man in a tailors suit.

"Kitsuen wa anata o korosu koto ga dekiru koto o shitte imasu ka? (Do you know that smoking can kill you?)"

He offers a foreign man cigarette.

"Sukidesu ka? (Do you like one?)"

Lord Ignacius grins a smile from cheekbone teeth to teeth.

"Kore ga anata no hai o hiki hagasu koto ni chūi shite kudasai(Watch out for this will rip your lungs out).

Ignacius stabs through tailors suit in his heart with a chopstick, kicks him off his cutlery and rolls kicking dead leaving him be with a bag of rubbish.

Our white Mage is taking a walk along the river talking with Simon.

"What we are going to do if they know Karate?"

Simon slides his arm under his black denim jacket to reach the back of his belt.

"I will go like Indiana Jones and waste no time."

They continued the journey along the river to kill and earn their living.

When Mage and Simon approached the backdoor of the games venue, the lights sparked into the night with slugs entering bodies of men in black suits to see these men dying on the concrete floor with Simon holding his handgun.

They choose to carry on walking without waiting for them to die stepping over diseased like they were left there.

"Dude, where you got this gun from?"

Simon Says is looking at his piece of metal twisting in his palm examining and admiring the equipment he did hold in his left arm.

"I think officers are required to carry firearms."

Magnum shook his head and thought they are making a mistake drinking and believed the luck will come their way.

"I do not think you are an officer anymore."

Our heroes continue walking the building part made of offices to see if the path is clear and hoping to see Ignacius waiting for them at the very end of the destination to kill.

"What would you do if you run out of ammunition?"

"Mage, the gun is heavy."

He smacks two guys over their heads while they jumped out of the corner running outside to see what has happened in the entrances on the lower floor.

"Simon, I am confused. Why you did not shoot those two?"

Simon run out of those bullets and knew the handgun handle is a great tool to break car windows in accidents while he was in past patrol duties to see road accidents.

"This mister Smith and miss Wesson is a heavy coupe allowing me with the other end to knock out cold anyone who opposes their marriage."

Simon did make a journey to the top floor a lot shorter with Mage he gets a gun pointed into his forehead while one of the security guards are talking to him, presumably alert about events, he not knew to be true they made their way in breaking past building security that happed on outside.

He is asking them questions Simon and Magnum do not understand a word they are speaking, they chose to show rather tell their tale.

Simon knows what he should do and gives no break to others taking one step forward and twisting both hands backwards with the guard's firearm back at his jaw making his hand fire into his head.

The blood splatters a little onto their heads while the remaining mass of blood and meat is coming out of the victim's head onto a floor while Simon gently places him onto the floor.

Our Mage was looking behind him how he made it happen a lot easier than he thought to take one man's life it was easy for his eyes to see it.

"I think you could have him leave out cold like the other two guys rather than getting on us the blood splatters and cause loud noise in here."

"I got it covered, we are alive so far and let's keep it this way. Let's keep ongoing because I need to get paid."

Ignacius after dealing with a random guy outside the venue walks along with the coin-operated games machines into the backdoor as instructions said but he is feeling happy Simon said they will get the backdoor covered from outside in case it was a trap.

Who knows if the unknown number will pay so much it might be right for him to think he is safe. T

The trio is still drunk and in normal circumstances, they would swing around the place, but from so much adrenaline into the moment they could not care less.

When he got closer to the main corridor leading the aim got a great idea of how he could finish the job and is running perspective of success in his head.

He hears men walking fast, and a gunshot fired near to where he is lurking.

Ignacius picks up a fire extinguisher and prepares to see if he would need it in case his friends are in trouble.

"Mage, I think we need to stop talking because we are like letting them know we are here and we going to hurt them."

"Like we would not have done this already."

Ignacius swings this big canister for fire equipment learning Simon places his face into the wall.

"Guys, it's me!"

Simon lets go of Ignacius twisted wrist tilting his top shoulders in the art deco wall.

"I know, but I still hate when friends are swinging at me very heavy objects."

Mage thinks of silent treatment they should keep it their focus if they like to stay alive.

"Here goes silence treatment in a corridor."

When they walked a few meters further they have reached their eventual destination and while walking they run a thorough course of action.

Ignacius knocks on the door where is written the Kitaro Hiroshima the founder of Hiroshima Innovations and Developments.

Ignacius opens Hiroshima's office door a little wider to let his head out to speak.

"Jinsokuna ranmen no haitatsu (the speedy egg noodles delivery)."

The half-asleep man in the executive's chair opens one of his eyes to see three men in the next few seconds to tie him up to his chair and shut his sock into his mouth.

Ignacius does ask his teams for tips on how they should proceed with the homicide they are hoping to earn their living.

"What to do next?"

Simon's funny ideas did make humour much open he slides his arm in his backpack and takes out paper masks of geisha faces printed on them.

While three of them are wearing their face masks Simon did took leadership explaining the initiative to explain what he learned about contract killing from a professional police officer's career.

"I have a good idea how to let the contractor know about our job well done."

He takes out a mobile phone from Kitaro pocket and turns on YouBube application on the mobile saying to his friends on the quest there is nothing more interesting than watching YouBube live.

He places the footage to show a live media stream, Ignacius pulls out his mince clever inside his backpack of kitchen tools he carries to work and offers the struggling old man his last words.

"I said you will have the egg noodles."

He minces the target's testicles into nothing near to explain what a piece of meat it is, leaving him to bleed while he is on live video, letting our heroes have enough time to run far away as possible from the crime scene they just made for a promised pile of cash.

They hey left and are walking far from the town feeling drunk from alcohol and quite sick because adrenaline has worn off, Mage keeps thinking this will not go well.

The epic night of the adventure having their night out is near an end, the boys are heading back to Ignacius apartment to sober up.

But Lord Ignacius eyes are captured to see shy pair of black eyes gazing at him and in a way saying hello to him.

With quick nonverbal communication, they join their hands together.

"Guys, you can head off without me. I think I am getting lucky tonight and I could use my private time."

Once a new couple is in Osaka Love Motel, Ignacius is taking his clothes off to see his lady is making her slow steps and licking her lips without taking her gaze off him.

But Ignacius grabs her arm and turns her around with his force.

She bends over to the table, leaving Ignacius holding her right arm with the blade she is holding.

Ignacius softly whispers like a tickle of the feather.

"Your blade or my stick up your backside because any of them can end up inside there."

He without speaking much to her do opens her up by ripping her stockings apart with the blade from her arm and ramps up himself into her backside.

When the time arrives for them to experience the moment of epic climax like a fresh couple, he cuts open her throat to let all of her blood sprays open all over the bedroom and then he remarks to himself.

"You should shut up your hole because I dislike talk a lot women."

He showers and goes outside to have a good smoke to learn he forgot his lighter.

Simon lights up his smoke not looking at him he says.

"You know this can be a bit of trouble for everybody."

"One or two now do not matter because this one was vicious. Also, I thought you guys have gone to bed by now."

"If you would have given us the keys you could have said that why we are here but otherwise, please keep it down. Ok?"

"This was the best minute in my life and I was hoping to marry her till death takes us apart, but death cannot make me happy."

"They all look dead to me when I look in their eyes."

Mage comments long far on the horizon not looking at his childhood friends expression understanding his thoughts.

"Ignacius, if you would like to find your genuine love then swap your TV channel and maybe then you experience better luck, rather than thinking everything is a video game while we are drunk!"

Our three friends are sobering up in an apartment in Osaka, the city is making a commotion from sounds of emergency services vehicles sirens.

*.*

The sun is dusk near Japan, and two men are having a romantic affair with their hands on one another on a lovely evening.

One man closes his eye while another man places his tongue in his lover's mouth.

They finish their passionate kiss, then one of them goes down on his knees when another one lowers his pants and licking begins with kissing below.

He stands up from a tasteful mouth full of the passionate flavour in between the two, he unzips his trousers and turns round the strong sailor onto his stomach to show him how he is appreciating it.

In a post-war orphanage for children is in the north of Hokkaido, they are sheltering children who lost all of their families during the war, two boys were growing uptight as a fist and to find themselves to be the best friends looking into the world back at them to take it back.

One was Nobito and the other was Kitaro, Kitaro was later adopted in Hiroshima family when he was eight years old.

Nobito made his way into the world as he saw it fit.

Kitaro knew nothing but the love for a good street fight show everyone around who is the boss.

He was very brave and upheld his code of conduct while growing quick and strong into the cold post-war world.

*.*

When Nobito and Kitaro were sitting by the apple tree in Mae prefecture in the gardens of the apple farm. They left to see the farming community on their school trip from the orphanage.

"You know when I see apples on a tree it makes me think."

"What are you thinking about, Nobito?"

"Do all happy people grow up strong and healthy eating apples?"

"I am not sure if there is a happy people."

"I am sure we all can be happy."

"I feel happier already, and I find it funny to talk about it on such a sunny day."

"If you remember we learned from school mythology lessons about folklore from far away places talking about the meaning of apple."

"I cannot remember this lesson."

"Because you never listen."

The mile before he continues genuine-minded expresses his deepest desire to say it vocally expressing he says it.

"Because of apples are said we all must live lives of imperfection because we failed a test and fall far away from our apple tree."

"Does it mean those apples near us on the ground are like us."

Kitaro looks closer at an apple tree and the surrounding grass.

"What is the difference between those apples on the tree itself and the fallen ones."

"I think they are not different at all but the time got them to be a little different but if you think an apple can be on the branch forever it makes us fool for thinking like it."

"I know what are you saying but can it be it's just an appearance and I think any of them can be as good as on the ground or above, it's just a taste that differs from tree to tree itself."

"I agree."

Within, Kyoto somewhere on a sunny day a young man was enjoying the sunny afternoon all by him thinking how his time had gone by and how half-empty the time was.

It was late summer, but this time the weather was better than ever and he was getting ready to leave because his train back home is going to leave without him.

He was walking mindless and over-thinking, looking into the path where he is walking rather than around him. He accidentally walks into a girl with the impact makes both fall over.

Kitaro looks up and sees a girl who stumbled backwards, holding an empty fruit basket because he made her fall with all the fruits scattering around them.

He apologized and asked her name because he felt wrong for being so dumb.

"I am sorry for not seeing where I am walking because I am a little busy."

Her reply did make a choice the day they meet to find one another seeking a simple life they live to start learning it was never so simple.

"It is ok because I was so in a hurry to be back home I was careless. I am sorry too."

"Let me help you place those lost fruits back in the basket."

He was picking apples from the ground, Kitaro asked what is her name?

"My name is Sakura."

"My name is Kitaro."

He made it clear with a simple smile.

It was a day full of rain, a woman was walking in the Tokyo hotel district to meet the genuine passion and love of her life.

A little late lovers were finishing up their love affair, to hear a knock on their hotel suite door.

She opens the door to say she is a little busy, the handgun shell drops onto the floor making her fall backwards.

A man who was with her, while smoking his cigarette in the room's corner, says to the contract killer outside the door.

"I hope you do not think I pay you to make me drag her body into the bath?"

"No."

He closes the door behind him and takes dead Sakura by her legs, pulling her into the bathroom.

Our guys decide once they sober up to forget the night before they head out before a morning flight to shake off the stress.

The money did not arrive and no more messages about it.

"It's a great idea to go out for one more night together to a nightclub because I have work in the morning and I might not sleep well tonight knowing what we have done last night."

"Let's rock on tonight without a fail."

"I know one classy place for Osaka."

They come in a front night club on the front door written Royal Gigolos Nightlife and before they enter the nightclub Mage sends a text message to his grandad written 'EVERYTHING IS OK I AM COMING BACK HOME'.

When they enter the dance gallery on a massive marvel floor, the house music is playing and delayed flashlights are on the floor.

The DJ presents over the microphone about tonight playing DJ Benas Benosis, in the background starting the song, "when the truth comes out and all the joy dies, do you need somebody to love".

Mage looks around and says to his friends he is heading off to the bathroom have been holding it for a while.

Simon takes his drink from a glass bar looking around a marble floor night goes enjoying and dancing the night.

"Do not stay too long because it's my favourite remix playing now and I feel like going out for a dance."

While remixing "somebody in love" DJ is playing and disco flash is on the susceptible friends ordering their drinks and talking to each other the stranger slowly let his blade out of his sleeve and is walking up to them just to get his neck broken from behind to slide on a sofa.

The trouble does not stop there and there is further a man sitting by the table aiming the handgun with suspender just to receive ice pick into his ears and to lie down softly his head on his table.

When Mage comes out of the toilet and says to Ignacius he apologizes he took so long because the toilet was so messy.

The lights come on in the nightclub when the server screams she realises the blood is all over the table and the handgun is on the floor.

The lights come on, music shuts off and all the guests run for their lives out of the club.

Simon standing outside says to Ignacius it is a nightmare on an elm street did found its way inside the venue.

"It has never happened before, but I am sure they need to get some decent security outside the front door because it must be some kind of a psycho job in there."

Lord Ignacius replies clenching his fists irritated antagonizing way seeing his last night ruined with his childhood friends leaving far away home.

Mage does ask they start walking away because of coincidence it was a terrible mistake to stay around before they are noticed within crowds of witnesses near a murder scene.

"Let's keep on walking because we might get negative attention in particular after last night's heavy drinking."

Trio after a few more beers are walking closer to a central station to say goodbye to each other before they apart different ways once again, they think about getting a quick snack from the petrol station.

At the petrol station when they finish their snacks, Ignacius says he needs to use a toilet.

"I head off to the toilet; I hope it's not nasty as our previous place with all of those psycho killers inside."

He blinks at his friends and they return a smile.

Ignacius is using his loo, the man walks up to him and says something to him in Japanese.

Ignacius replies in his native language he is sorry he does not understand. But the man in the cleaners outfit grabs Ignacius on his collar and smacks him on the tiles, making him lose his consciousness. He drags Ignacius into the boot of the black car and then walks off.

Simon felt like he needs a toilet as well and walks towards the toilets when the black car passes him without stopping. When he walks into a restroom, he realises the blood marks on the floor and remembers the black car quickly leaving the petrol station.

Simon runs out when he comes to a situation to understand his childhood friend was abducted.

Mage walks up to him and says did Ignacius just pass out once again on his toilet seat.

"I have no time for this."

He rushes to the first vehicle left unattended and takes it to chase after the kidnappers.

Mage is looking at how Simon drives off with a passenger's van written on it "Korean Cheer Leaders" and is thinking to himself something is not adding up in here.

Simon is in such a hurry he does not notice the situation, he is driving a van full of fashion models who screamed while he is behind the wheel tackling in high speed the Kansai region tight bend roads to catch to another vehicle who have left about 8 minutes ago ahead of him.

The models scream and cry inside their van while Simon is steering the road; he plays the radio for a time being he would not take his sight off the road.

The radio is playing an Asian song in English, "Danger, oh my danger you're in a danger."

The girls in Simons van had enough and started vomiting, also releasing diarrhoea.

"I do like this tune." He increases volume and pulls all the windows open in the van.

He catches up to the vehicle of suspects, drives next to it and flashes his van headlights at them when waving them down with his hand.

Both vehicles come to a halt and the men step out of the black car for Simon to see them taking out of the back of the car crowbars and starting walking up to him.

"Great, what I should do in this shit right now."

The men stop walking up to a Simon in few meters away to listen to the humming noise coming in their direction on a side road.

Out in the forest under cover of darkness drives out a farm tractor driving all over them and not stopping heading back into the dark forest.

Simon looks at what he is seeing and what is left out of those big gangsters with crowbars thinking to himself.

"I am lucky enough I did not step out of this van."

Simon quickly runs up to the black car to make sure he chased the right vehicle to find his missing friend. When opens the boot of the car he sees Ignacius all in tapes and half-conscious.

Simon takes the tape off Ignacius's mouth and speaks to him to check his awareness and condition he is in.

" I came here in a hurry once I met all those hot models but do not go in a van yet to greet them because it's kind of awful smell ."

The Mage walks out of the dark forest and starts helping Simon to pull Ignacius out of the vehicle.

"What is next?"

"We need to drive quicker out of here because we have here the road of dead bodies."

"Apologies, I did not come back with the tractor because it took me a while to learn to use the breaks."

"Tell me about it."

"It was written in hiragana. I do not read Japanese."

"Great it was not written in katakana."

"I would prefer in Lithuanian."

"How about Eskimo?"

"What are you guys talking about."

They help him out of those silver duck tapes set his body free and off the boot to see him find it hard standing on his feet they help him sit on the edge of the boot looking at him in the eyes checking his vitals and observing him taking his breath finding his mind back to their normality they are found themselves in.

The trio boards a kidnapper's vehicle and starts driving anywhere they think can be better and further away as possible.
