Chapter 5 - Chapter 5 - Sacrifice Part 5

Bombs began to explode all around the open plain starting from near the cave entrance extending more than 200 yards past the platform where his parents were held. He flew back from the impact of the shock. His back smashed into the stone cave ground, "huhhh," he sucked in a sharp breath after having it knocked out of him. His ears were ringing and his vision was distorted. 'Fuck, stand up!' He steeled himself, rolling over. He placed his left leg forward and used it to stand, placing his right foot on the ground, only to confirm that his knee could not support his weight. He lifted his head and saw the dim light at the back of the cave. It seemed to pulse to a rhythmic beat as if it were alive. He placed his right foot on the ground again and quickly hopped over to left leg, turning in order to go back towards the entrance of the cave only to be met by the sight of a barrel being pointed in his direction once again. 'Well, shit,' was his only thought before, *Bang* *Bang* 'Stomach and chest. They must no longer care if I die.' Zura's mouth formed a small smile as he started to fall forward to his knees, only to be caught mid-way to the ground by an arm wrapped around his neck, that jerked him backwards farther into the cave. He could barely breath and the small smile was gone, replaced by a determined grimace. He did not know whether it was due to the unknown fate of his parents, the bullets that tore through his body, or if he could attribute it to the arm wrapped around his neck, but regardless, he knew he was more pissed off in that moment than he had ever been at any point in the entirety of his short existence and he knew that he needed the bitch who shot him at least twice, maybe even three times, if its the same soldier, to die. He needed them all to die. Fuck, he just hated losing. And that is why, when his eyes could see the brightness of the seal reflected off the walls getting more and more prominent and he could begin to hear the faint buzzing of the portal and the soldier with his arms around his neck stopped. Without hesitation he raised his left leg up and slammed it into the ground, using the spring of his only functioning knee to propel himself up, turned and wrapped his bound wrists around the neck of the soldier that was just moments ago about to throw him into the portal, as he fell forward through the seal, only to have his body stop short of falling in completely due to the soldier's neck going in the other direction. His lower half in the portal. His upper half bleeding out and his wrists pressing down into the neck of the one he wanted dead. 'What's a guy to do?' He cupped his hands under the man's chin, and twisted with as much force as his body would allow as he fell forward, readily embracing his probable death. *Crack* 'Ah, satisfaction.'
