Chapter 4 - Crimson Light!

As Shu walk towards the ally way he saw a man wearing a black leather jacket pulling a woman's handbag. The woman seemed to be in her sixties and wore a pink coat over a white dress, she have some wrinkles on her face and seem quite exhausted from the constant pulling contest with the man. The man has brown skin his face was not visible because of the mask he is wearing.

"Old hag give me the bag quietly or I'll beat you up," said the man.

"Never..... help someone help me here's a robber.....help" the granny shouted.

"Ha, ha... no one's gonna come here this place is very far from the road, now give the bag or do you want to be beaten up." the man said.

Then used more force to snatch the bag away, when he couldn't snatch the bag he lifted his right hand and tried to slap the granny in the face.

The granny closed her eyes because of freight, but then.

"Stop...."

She heard a male voice coming from her said. Opening her eyes she saw a handsome young man with red hair and eyes holding the man's hand firmly.

Shu who was watching the scene run towards the granny when the man tried to hit her, although Shu doesn't want to be a hero of justice nor does he consider himself a good guy. Shu has always been a decisive person when it comes to bad situations, if it was a road full of people he wouldn't even bother to look at the scene and walk away, but his father always told him ' That having power but not using it is meaningless, when there's no other choice then use it if you want to. Some people out there won't listen unless you talk with your fist's.'

As Shu has always been handsome and girls approach him more openly, in middle school there were times when some boy's of his class or senior male students tried to bully him. That's one of the reasons he started practising MMA close combat to protect himself.

Well even though his mother objected because she didn't want her son to be a violent person, who always fights. But his father persuaded her because he knew his son is going to be in trouble at school if he stayed weak, ' If you want our son to go to school normally then either make him wear a mask or change his face otherwise he will get broken at school ' this is what his father said to his mother, although cold but true. And his mother couldn't refute anymore, she also knew that her son is handsome and girls would want to date him, and this will attract jealousy from others. As such he began training in MMA at the age of fifteen.

"Boy, who are you? And what does this have to do with you, this is not a TV scene. Scam or I'll kick your ass." the man said angrily to Shu when he saw the hand is from a young boy.

"You shouldn't hit an old woman, if you run away now I won't call the police, now go away." Shu replied to the man.

"Ha... kid's these days always trying to be heroes, don't worry I'll teach you a good lesson so that you don't medal in other people's business in the future." the man said and tried to hit Shu with his left hand.

Shu easily dodged it and threw a kick at the man's belly.

"Ahh,...bastard ...." the man gasped for air from the power of behind the kick, and stumbled back a few steps then looked at Shu angrily.

The man started to run towards Shu and tried to punch him in the jaw, but Shu easily dodged and punch him on the back.

" ah ...." the man groaned.

Although the man is older and bigger than Shu, as someone who trained in MMA for almost three years, size mattered the least. The man was a newbie when it's comes to real fights.

When the granny saw that the young man can easily beat the robber, her eyes show hope and she runs behind the Shu.

When Shu saw the granny was fine and now a safe distance away he sigh in relief and become more aggressive in the fight, in MMA you don't give your enemies time to hold their ground and In a few moves, the man was beaten down.

"I surrender Don't hit me anymore. I'll go away please don't hit me." the man pleaded.

"I gave you a chance but you didn't take it now I'll let the police deal with it." Shu said to the man, he was already forced to fight so might as well call the police.

"Granny are you alright? Do you have a cell phone? please call the police." Shu said to the granny who was behind him.

"Ah... Yes thank you young man for saving me, and I have a phone, I'll call the police." the granny thanked Shu and said, before taking out the phone from her bag to call the police.

[BANG.....]

Then suddenly when Shu was talking to the granny a gunshot rang out, and Shu's crimson eyes suddenly widen from shock and he felt extreme pain from his chest area. Looking down he saw a bullet hole on the left side of his chest and deep red blood was seeping out like a small river. He falls to the ground on his knees.

[Thud..]
