October 12, 3:35 pm

Guan Yu was still gripping Serrano's hand when he ask him a simple question, why was he that greedy? that 6 foot 2 and 180-pound, as soon as the gunshots ended Ms Eu-meh Fang knew they lost now as Alejandro Diaz Serrano was gasping for air, Guan Yu wanted to hear his explanation so to get him to talk he lessen his hold to hear his answer, knowing this action will assume this was a weak and foolish respond, that will lead an opening and chance so Alejandro Diaz Serrano can escape, so as soon as air would come back to Alejandro's lungs he just used this moment to attack Guan Yu while he was still sitting defenseless,

in a split second Alejandro's fist sparked with intense heat and it burst into flame he twist his upper body so he could extend his shoulder back to gain more elbow room and swing his flaming fist with all of his efforts, his hands were heavy even inside a room the heat was so intense ms Eu-meh Fang the former actress felt and saw the carpet on which the two were on position started to burn and the dust was being stirred upward following Alejandro's moving fist toward Guan YU face,

them BOOM! the impact was so strong the window glass that was a few feet on their right side instantly shattered into a million pieces, and the wall behind them was blown outward, the people who came from the same building that evacuated at a safe distance saw the top floor saw and felt the discharge of force outward like a 150-mile running truck came smashing into a solid concrete wall and just demolish glass and huge chucks of the top floor wall fell on the ground floor park as vehicles in front of the building were squash like tin foil hats.

Ms. Eu-meh Fang tumble backwards because the air suddenly expanded because of the heat, she was aware that acting innocent and fragile will never save her from what was about to follow, so she thought whoever won thinking fast and create a believable scenario to get out of a bad situation on the right moment, she was already on a squatting position waiting for the dust subside, it was hard to see as fumes inside the room was thick slowly a silhouette of a person could be seen but she was having difficulty identifying who it was, she had to make sure or else her plan won't work,

October 12, 3:46 pm

soon her vision started to clear and saw two people standing to her disbelief Guan Yu was still holding Alejandro Diaz Serrano's neck with his left hand and used his right hand to catch Alejandro's powerful jab toward Guan Yu's right temporal lobe with his right hand.

everything even the leather chair he was previously sitting on disintegrated into ash, which is why they are standing now, the grit in Alejandro's eyes was still there and Guan Yu left hand quickly loosen his hold and went down and which made his enemy lean backwards to take a deep breath and slightly side angle and knees and turn his left leg Making sure that he evenly distribute the body weight on his both legs, then he lowered his shoulders and crouches, Alejandro position his hands as well as the forearm close to his body protecting his ribs.

then with all of his strength started to barrage Guan Yu with powerful punches, each punch was fast and accurate, with simultaneous drumming sounds the vibration was strong enough to force the remaining smoke in the room, and each impact would shake the dangling light fixture in the room as it moves to every punch, what scared her was how Guan Yu deflect this punches with just his hand.

October 12, 3:50 pm

Despite Alejandro's fatigue, he could feel his punches hitting him, but after seeing Guan Yu's expression and the way he moved his hands and body, he was mesmerized, there were no wasteful movements, and the punches he delivered perfectly matched the point where they would get blocked, and with a flick of his hand and a change of sight, all of the force and flame energy was directed in a different direction as it dissipates into the open air and the only thing that stood out was the impact of the punches' sound ripple in the surrounding objects as it absorbs the remaining force.

Alejandro was running out of air, as his punch was about to stop mid-way he continue to swing his arm but the angle was already changing and the speed was losing momentum when his lungs gave out, he wanted to jump out of Guan Yu path when his legs have also lost given out his body and face was exposed to an attack, Alejandro while looking down saw at the corner of his eye a fist coming toward his face,

October 12, 3:55 pm

a quick jolt from Guan Yu rattled his head as blood spurt out of his mouth his head was about to smash the marble floor when his neck once again get choked and move upward and constraint Alejandro into a semi-standing position then with his free left hand gave out quick jabs throughout his now vulnerable body this broke Alejandro left rib, shoulder blade, jaw bone, and thigh bone the impact of Guan Yu jab thrust was coordinated and focus toward the enemy body it penetrated and pass through his internal organs shattering them as the force went out to other side of his back instantly breaking him.

Alejandro Diaz Serrano is the most feared Consigliere of the underworld Cartel, known for his brutality among his enemy for he ruled with an iron fist in his territory for decades, has been known to have killed and massacred numerous people including government agents that stood in his way. now lies motionless on the floor still conscious, in a one-on-one battle within 5 minutes Guan Yu stood victorious, even Alejandro was in absolute pain as he still continues to curse.

October 12, 3:59 pm

on the same time Ms. Eu-meh Fang had already removed her 3-inch branded stiletto shoes and grabbed a grenade from one of the dead guards that she happened to stumble upon entering the room and dashed toward the door and pulled the grenade pin and just threw it toward Guan Yu location.

Guan Yu was capable of surviving this action but he was pinned between three decisions with different consequences, but with one aftereffect is was to let Eu-meh Fang escape,

first eluding the grenade and instantly killing Alejandro Diaz Serrano. second deviating its trajectory and letting it fall outside the top floor and hope nobody would get hurt, or last grab his fallen enemy jump out of the window

the choice was never easy, as the explosion destroy what was still intact on the VIP top floor, it triggered the rest of the leftover explosive materials on the dead bodyguards, but Guan Yu was able to jump and land safely on the ground floor without gathering too much attention from the residential bystanders in the area,

the first responders were too busy attending to the people who desperately begging them to save their homes and personal properties inside the building and never took a glance toward the object that fell from the top floor and created a huge hole in the ground floor condominium open parking lot, Guan Yu walk while dragging Alejandro's still living body toward a black van that was parked near the area after his men secure the target he took out his phone and called Grandma Mao.

it was October 12, and around 4:01 pm news broke out about the massive explosion at a luxury penthouse, reported damage to properties and hundreds of thousand reported civilian casualties.
