Chapter 39 - Thrown

When John and his goons saw Jonathan able to walk inside of the force field panic began showing on their faces. John in particular had an ugly expression since he thought that Angela was knocked out cold and would be for the foreseeable future. Lucky enough for Jonathan and his group that wasn't the case.

Once Jonathan had fully walked inside the force field, Kylie had a wide smile knowing that she had back up. Since John and the other 2 were busy looking at Jonathan she quickly walked over to Angela and grabbed her by the shoulders pulling her toward where Jonathan was. Angela couldn't move since not only was she injured but she had also passed out after giving Jonathan access to the cabin.

"You may have gotten inside but what are you going to do now?" John asked returning the sly smile to his face after thinking about the situation. In his mind, there was no chance for Jonathan to do anything since he was only one person. Even with the help of Kylie he didn't expect much since she was already injured as is.

Clyde and Zach also had smiles on their faces as they thought about killing the biggest target so far in the games. While it may be a good thing to have Jonathan on their side if he wasn't going to submit it would be better to get rid of him, or at least that's what they think.

Jonathan's face turned into a smile as well which surprised the group of 3 since they thought they held control of the situation, "What are you smiling at?!" Zach couldn't help but yell getting slightly nervous at the sight of Jonathan smiling.

"I'm not worried about you three at all. If you want to come and test your luck then by all means bring it." Jonathan said showing a new side of him that no one had seen before. Kylie was also in shock as she took a second to glance at Jonathan. She didn't expect him to react this way since in most instances he was the calm and collected one that was always about keeping others alive.

However, in Jonathan's mind these guys had stepped over the bounds since he had a slight idea about what they did to Derek and it made him really mad. The same thing goes for what happened to Angela and Kylie, it was obvious that they had hurt them in some way and he thought that was unacceptable.

Clyde felt a growing tension and had a nervous look as well. Sweat began dripping down his back as he looked into the eyes of Jonathan which now looked like one of a predator looking at its prey.

John was the most nervous since he had no idea how to respond to the way Jonathan was acting. Nothing so far had gone according to his plan and it was starting to weigh on him greatly, "Fine you think you can take all of us? Then be my guest. Let's kill this loser like we did his little friend." John said laughing before walking toward Jonathan and his group.

Clyde and Zach took a moment to get out of their nervous state but when they saw their boss being so confident they couldn't help but follow and regain their confidence slightly, 'If our boss is walking towards him then this guy has no chance.' The two thought as they followed behind John.

When John started walking forward threatening violence Jonathan had a strange feeling welling up inside him. It wasn't any type of disgust or minor regret for thinking about joining in the violence. Instead, it was a feeling of relief. Relief that the guys in front of him had instigated the fight and now he would have no repercussions no matter what happened. Right as John and his 2 goons were about to arrive suddenly the lights went out all over the place.

"Good evening everyone! It's now lights out for everyone that's not in the cabin. If you aren't in your sleeping bags within the next 5 minutes then you know what happens!" The Watcher's voice rang throughout the resting room scaring some of the people since they now had an innate fear of The Watcher. Once everyone understood what The Watcher said they began running toward their sleeping bags quickly shoving themselves inside so that they wouldn't get shocked.

Of course, when some got to their sleeping bags they sat up inside of it that way they could still see what was happening with Jonathan and John. What they saw when they finally looked back left them with their jaws dropped, the fighting had begun.

Jonathan had been the first one to attack shocking John as Jonathan kicked him straight in the chest sending him flying backward a few feet. When this happened the 2 goons were left with surprised looks on their face as they realized that Jonathan was very strong. This momentary surprise gave Jonathan enough time to spin around and grab Clyde by the neck picking him up in the air before slamming his body back down with his skull slamming against the hard ground.

There was a loud deafening crack that resounded throughout the now quiet rest room letting everyone hear how hard Clyde's head slammed into the ground. Once Jonathan did this he let go of Clyde's head letting Zach and John watch in horror as Clyde no longer moved with blood pouring out from his skull.

If one were to pay attention to the counter in the sky they would also realize that the player count went from 60 to now 59.

"CLYDE!" Zach shouted in both fear and sorrow as he saw his closest friend throughout the entire game be slammed against the hard concrete floor with no mercy.

"What a monster." John thought with his jaw slightly dropped. He may consider himself a bad person but the brutality that Jonathan just showed was something that even he would have trouble doing.
