Running through the streets was one of my favourite activities when I was a kid. The way I would outrun my friends just to get home before 6 PM as ordered by the lord who was my father. But I never thought that I'd be running like that nearly two decades later with my sister and her client while men clothed in black with swords and knives in their hands chased us.
One of them, who gained enough pace and was just behind me, targeted my throat and swung his knife, forcing me to dodge and break my internal thought flow.
" Ranga!!! ", Ashwi called out to me in shock
" Run! ", I shouted as I kicked the one behind me in the guts, slowing him down.
" Why is this happening to us? ", Ashwi shouted in frustration and fear.
" Sir, who the hell are they and why are trying to kill us? ", My sister's client asked with little emotion as he picked up pace.
" This is not the time to explain..", I replied as I dodged another swing to my back.
" I think it freaking is...", He stated pulling Ashwi towards him, getting her out of another assaulter's attack range.
" I am an Atheist and I work for TriStar Law Enterprises...", I started to explain.
" Understood. ", He replied, cutting me off.
" That's really informative! Now shut the hell up and run, you two! ", Ashwi commented sarcastically before screaming.
A few minutes later....
We took a sharp left from the main road only to find that it was a dead end. We turned around to find that they had us cornered. Backed up to wall with killers chasing after you, why does my life be so complicated.
" Ranga...!! ", Ashwi said in fear as her eyes widened.
" Look bro, your problem's with me....Let my sister and that guy go ", I pleaded.
" I'm just a client of hers ", Natraj said without emotion earning a hurt look from Ashwi for some reason.
" It's badluck you got caught with these two. All of you will die together...", One of them replied.
" Let's kill only the men. The girl is mighty fine...we can enjoy her later to our hearts content. ", The one next to him stated while looking Ashwi up and down like a creep.
That made my blood boil. Just as I was about to get ready to strike, Natraj stopped me with his arm.
" What? ", I asked him biting my lips on anger.
" You shouldn't. ", He replied.
" I won't let that go unpunished...", I tried to push his arm away but it was rigid as a rock.
" I told you to not fight but I never said that they'd go unpunished. ", He told me.
" What? ", Ashwi asked confused.
" I'll get you both out of here alive and punish them. All I ask is one thing...", He started to us.
" What? ", I asked confused.
" Authorize me...", He replied to us, not noticing the man who was behind him with a sword, ready to strike.
" Ahhh!!!! ", Ashwi screamed as the sword closed in on her client.
We had closed our eyes, not wanting to see the bloody, gore scene. When I opened my eyes in the next couple seconds. I was shocked to find that he had caught the attack by the arm. The assauleters were shocked at this. Ashwi could not believe what she was seeing.
" Will you Authorize me? ", He asked again, iron-gripping the attacker's hand.
" Ye..YES...", Ashwi replied in the shocked state.
With a smirk on face, the client got into action. He twisted the attacker's arm, making him drop the weapon. Natraj proceeded to kick him on the temple, knocking his lights out.
The comrades didn't hesitate to come forward to attack. Ducking an incoming slash, Natraj aft-elbowed his neck rendering him unconscious. Another one wanted to stab him but Natraj countered by side stepping and quieted down the assailant,kneeing him at his torso.
All that remained was the one who wanted to molest Ashwi. Natraj took his steps toward him slowly. The pervert of a moron ran at him, wanting to slash him. Natraj caught him by the throat, making him drop his knife. He threw him at the wall to his left.
" Want to enjoy her? ", Natraj asked with an mocking smile.
Before he could get a reply, he started punching the assaulter on the face. The first put him in a trance, the second wounded him, third made him bleed, the fourth broke his nose and the final one busted his face open. With his arm and face covered in blood, he turned to us.
" Authorize me? ", He asked in a calm manner as if he didn't just eliminate four hoodlums.
At that moment I knew, that our lives changed forever.
