Chapter 15 - Jail break (part 4)

Riley honks the horn repeatedly, getting angrier as he waits. "With more people why is no one on the fucking wall!" Riley roars, punching the horn. Finally the gate opens and Riley pulls the truck in. "Alright assholes I was sitting there for 10 fucking minutes." Riley stops his rant when he sees all of the 13 clan on their knees with 4 people standing around them. One who seems to think they are a gold vault. "Are you fucking kidding me?" Riley snaps. "Sorry Ri." Tank says and is rewarded with a smack to the face with a baseball bat splitting his eyebrow. "You die messy." Riley says pointing at the thin man in baggy clothes with a hatchet man tattoo on his neck. "Hey motherfucker, you really think you is in any position to be threatening us. In case you missed this I got a gun dick head." The gold holder says waving his gun around. "Good for you, what do you want a sticker, sorry the gold ones already got used." Riley mocks. "Keep it up asshole." the man growls. "And what exactly is it you're going to do with an empty gun?" Riley asks, crossing his arms and cocking his head to the side. "You think this is empty, you willing to test that?" The man asks. Riley nods, laughing, pulling his own gun out and shooting the man's right knee. "You better fucking believe it, so dip shits 3 get down on your knees." Riley says, aiming at the remaining people who drop their weapons and fall to their knees with their hands up. As Riley walks past the leader he puts a bullet in his head. Riley fights the urge to vomit and digs deep into himself to keep the appearance of strength up. "Please, please don't kill us." The only woman says, crying uncontrollably. "Ok i'll give you all a chance." Riley says. In rapid succession he shoots them in the leg making them scream with pain. The members of 13 clan quickly move away. Riley drags the invaders together and wraps a chain around all of their injured legs. "Okay listen closely because you only get 1 chance so don't fuck up." Riley says wrapping the other end of the chain to the back of their car. "So this here is a pretty well made knock off of the military k-bar it was recently sharpened and only been cleaned never." Riley says as he throws his knife sticking it in the ground by the three. "Kill your friends and cut off your legs. I'll cauterize the stump and send you on your way. You get 20 seconds starting now." Riley says crouching and watching the three. Crying they reach for the others in 13 clan. "Please we are sorry so sorry help us please!" They beg. Riley retrieves his knife. "Times up." Riley says walking over to the car door. "Riley, wait." Jason says hobbling over to Riley. "We could use them." The young boy says, patting Riley's side. Riley cocks his head to the side. The sick feeling he had felt earlier had dissipated when he replayed Tank being hit and the clan on its knees over and over in his mind. "Nope they die." Riley says climbing in the car and driving away dragging the screaming trio the asphalt peeling their skin and bouncing their heads off the ground. Riley whistles as he drives, occasionally glancing in the rearview mirror at the rag dolling people. Riley drives around until he finally finds what he is looking for. Turning the car off he walks back to the weak pain wracked trio. "Now I don't know if you can hear it but I have a present for you." Riley says pointing at the man with the hatchet man tattoo. Crouching next to the broken bodies Riley stabs the other 2 in the head leaving the tattooed man. "W-why didn't you kill me?" He asks Riley. "You die messy, remember?" Riley says pointing at the 10 zombies moving closer. "Oh god no please kill me don't let them get me." The man sobs. Riley walks a little ways away and sits on an abandoned car's hood. "I am the monster. I am the hunter. I will conquer this world in a sea of my enemies' blood, living and dead. I will be a savior but until then I am the monster, I am the hunter." Riley repeats over and over as the zombies reach the man. 1 zombie immediately bites into the screaming man's nose gouging an eye out as it pulls its treat free. Riley forces himself to watch. He has condemned and killed them; he feels it is his responsibility to see it through no matter how it haunts him. "I can do this if it means they don't." Riley whispers to himself drawing his machete. "I will become anything that keeps us alive even if it isn't human." Riley says fighting the urge to cry. Monsters don't cry after all. When the instruments of his vengeance are all dead Riley finds his bloodlust has in no way been quelled and sets off in search of more victims. Preferably moving corpses but at this point humans are on the menu as well after all he needs more practice becoming numb.
