"Don't try to get near me or I might kill this guy.." I shouted as I place my card knife near Gomburza's neck.
Damn, it. I have no any idea how to fight Chris, considering his speed from before I don't think I can easily manage to make my taser contact with his body.
For now I'll try to use this guy as a hostage..
*Sigh, why do I feel like I'm the bad guy here?
...
"Are you threatening me?" Chris stares at me with his usual cold eyes, as if not affected by the situation, he walked towards me with composure.
"Yeah, I am, so step back!"
"Heh?" He smirked, "A kid like you, threatening me?"
He threw back his head and let out a loud, humorless laugh. "Do you really think I really care about that guy?" He continued to approach me.
"And what's more, A kid like you? trying to threaten me when professional elders were just begging me yesterday. Hahaha!." His laughter could be heard throughout the house.
Is this guy have a screw lose in his head? Earlier he was pretty much like a corps if you look at his face and now, his eyes is glistening and he's laughing?...
What's so even funny? I just don't get the humor of older people.
Wait? Isn't now the time to attack? He stopped and had been laughing this whole time, Did he finally let his guard down? Should I go for it or should I just stand still here while using Gomburza as a hostage?
.. Shit I don't know what I should do!
Even if I am to take this guy as a hostage. I looked at Gomburza as I clenched my teeth in frustration.
Ahh! whatever, I'll just face him head on.
I laid down Gomburza on the ground and stood with my head up high.
Tsk..I don't care anymore! It's a do or die now. If I continued to use Gomburza as a hostage, there's no possibility that this Chris guy will even listen to my plea to let me escape. And if he ever listened to me and let me go, considering his speed I'm pretty sure he'll come back to look for me. And I don't even know how I'll do the hostage thing. "Haysss!" I let out out a loud sigh. I should've watch movies with these kinds of things!
There's really no other choice but to finish it here!
"Oh?" Chris finally stopped laughing his ass out. "You, You want to fight, huh."
"Yeah, Bring it on!" Enduring the pain on my back,
I rushed out onto his direction and swung a kick right in front of his weak point, that's it! His balls.
"That's foul." I felt a tight grip on my feet.
"Ha-ha-ha." a low laughed escaped my mouth as I see Chris managed to grabbed my feet.
"Have this!" I was about to throw a punch in his face but.. before I could do it, a flash of light came to my view, "Huh?" looking at the ceiling in wondered, I felt my head hits the ground and causes a slight unconsciousness, sound rushes back at me as I felt the cold sensation from the pavements.
"That hurts..... shit.." I tried to get up using my hands but I wasn't able to do so as I felt the excruciating pain on my back had doubled.
"Is that all you can do?" I heard a somewhat disappointed voice of Chris.
Shit! Get up! I crouched, desperately trying to stand
from the ground, I managed to rose my body but then lost my balance halfway, making my body to make contact again with the dusty floor.
Just how much force did I take to make me not be able to stand like this?
Afraid to accept the circumstances where I am in. I closed my eyes.
Seriously, what's gonna happen now?... I can't even...
...
A few moments of silence, I felt a palms pressing against my throat; I could feel my esophagus closing.
Suddenly feeling my self getting lifted up from the ground, I opened my eyes and see Chris with a smirked on his face.
I cried out as his hands gripped my neck. I tried to dig my fingernails into his wrists, trying to dislodge him.
My hands fell to my side as the energy escapes me. His grip was too strong to wriggle out of.
Instead of reaching for my taser in my pocket, desperation to breath overtook me.
...
Shit! Am I going to die? For real?...
No way... I still haven't done what I wanted!
I gritted my teeth in frustration as I tried to break off from his arms to survive.
*Thud.
"." Chris, after a few moments loosened the way he's holding me and he fell on the ground, making me to also lost my balance and kissing the ground for the third time.
"Nice Strike, man!"
"We got him!"
Three guys, holding a baseball bat in their hands, enthusiastically bumped each other's as if they were a sports team celebrating because they won a game.
"You alright, Matsuki?"
One came near me, "Seems like we made it on time."
Huh?..Korosaku?...
***
"Did they finally say something?"
I asked.
"No, they're still keeping their mouth shut." "Korasaku stomped the ground, making all the dust to flew in the air. "Ah, right, what are you looking in there?"
Korasaku came near me as I threw one of the leather bag out of the table. "This seems to be theirs." I said.
"Oh," he swept the dust on the box near me, and sat, acting all friendly, he asked: "why did you threw that one bag?"
"It doesn't have anything other than unsightly things."
"Unsightly?"
"Korasaku," I've been meaning to ask it but I can't find the right time, maybe now's the time. "What do you know about them?" I unintentionally glared.
"I don't know much about them, I actually just get beaten up by that bald guy before," He clenched his fist as if he was pissed, "though. I think he's one of Shira's underlings or body guard?.. I don't really know, I only know that that guy is the one who protected her whenever we plan to get near Shira."
Shira's bodyguard, huh. Why is her bodyguard is like them? Does that mean Shira is..
Ugh...My head.. Shit! My headache started again just from remembering that day when shira was torturing me..
"Those two, I think they're some sort of criminals."
"C-criminals?" Korasaku jolted in surprised. Looking at me with a sweat on his face. Though, why is his reaction like that? it's obvious that they're considered criminals just from what they did to us you know?...
"Then, should we call the police to detained them?..."
That's what I've also been wondering since we caught them, what should we do about them. Should we really call the police? I mean they tried to assault me and abducted us...But based on the situation right now, the police may even suspected us that we were the abductors and the assailant, and getting interview by the police is a headache...
...Sigh,
I almost died back then, if it wouldn't for Korasaku. I don't know why but he came back with his pals, and manage to save my ass...Now I feel like I owe them...
Korasaku told me that he freed his pals in the basement for more manpower to deal with Chris..And now it's only four of us, if he wants to betrayed me he can practically beat me now but fortunately he's not doing anything like that.
"I don't think calling the police would help us in any way." I dangled the piece of paper in front of him. "It's too late, if we want to stay alive, we must get out of here in 10 mins."
I don't know if we're unlucky because we can't even get any information from the two who's tied up pretty hard in the corner or I should be happy because we're lucky I found this...
"It's a letter."
"Letter?"
"Yeah, I don't get it either, but it's a letter from that madam they call, Stating that she will be here the day after the night at 7am."
It's now 6:50 in my watch, And we're fucking tired, having to fight those two with no sleep, there's no way we'll be able to fight again if ever that madam is with someone stronger than those two. I don't know why a letter in this digital age, though.
"If we stay here any longer we'll be really done for."
"Why.."Korasaku stood up, "if someone came, it's not just you and me, my pals are here too." He looked over his friends and declared: "We can beat them too! You're strong and.."
"We can't." I lowered my head. I want to also see if it is really Shira who's behind this, but I don't think I can fight in this kind of state.
"I received an injury fighting them, and your friends are pretty much worn out from the torture they'd received."
"Then what should we do? Go now and let them here?"
"No, I've thought of something." I paused and a smirked was formed on my face.
Before the time they arrive, let's take our frustration on these two."
"Huh...You mean beat them?"
"Yeah, beat them to your heart content and make sure they can't walk again so they can't come back to look for us."
With that, Korasaku and his pals beat them out without mercy using the baseball bats that seemed to be used on them.
I want to at least joined the fun, but I can't afford to
forced myself to exert all of my strengtht to move, I might injured myself. I need to stay vigilant.. I haven't fully trusted them..
I could hear the screamed they make and see their face , looking at their furious face, I've thought of something fun, so I approached
I saw Gomburza stared daggers at me while clenching his teeth. "You cheater!"
"Cheater?" I smugged.
"You used a weapon on me, got it? You can't be possibly beat me if it wouldn't for that.."
"And who said I can't use a weapon? There's no rules like that in a life and death situation, Dumbass!"
"Grgr!"
Korasaku," I said, "Could you give me that bat of yours?"
"Oh," He smirked, "Here."
As I received the bat, without hesitation, I struck it on Gomburza's head, making his blood streamed down on his nose and mouth.
"That's perfect," I placed the bat over my shoulder's, bent my knee, and place the letter on the ground near them and started scribbling on it using their bloods.
I'm pretty sure this would irritated Shira a bit.
What did I scribbled on it? Well, it's something like 'Too bad, your plan didn't work out, just like us.'
"Then let's get out of there." I glimpse onto the two assailant as we left the place.
I don't know what Shira's scheming this time, but I swear to myself, I'm gonna be stronger, stronger that I can take anyone, I don't think this will be the end after all.
That bitch seemed to be involved with them, That means my revenge will be not as easy as I thought...
