Alex try to turn his head at the voice so cold it will have given the grim reaper a chase for his money, when he saw William through his side eyes and realizes his own inability to turn back around, at that moment his mind finally accept the sharp pain coming from his chest area, looking down to the spot the pain was coming from and what Alex saw is a hand sticking out of his chest.
"You ba ss t a....."
Cough.
Alex coughs out blood as he tries to talk, to try and curse out at this demon.
Alex has been in a mental torture, the worse kind of torture you can possibly put any man under for the past three hour. Alex begin waiting and waiting for William's attack, Alex muscle, mental fortitude as both been on high alert while thinking William will attack the moment he relax a bit but William never did.
William just stand with his back to the wall as he stare Alex down, Alex had tried closing his eyes and quiet his mind but that is easier said than done, not while you have a demon breathing down on you.
So the past three hour has been nothing but staring contest between them, Well more like Alex anyways, because William has been so relax and bored that he almost fall asleep multiple times.
It quite exhausting when you already harden your mind about a thing happening but then it ends up not happening, it can be quite frustrating.
The moment Alex hear the landing of the flying car his mind just quickly become relax as he jump up and turn his back to William.
But then again, even if Alex has his front to William, he doubts if he could have been able to defend himself properly from William's attack, that just how weak he has become over that three hours intense stare down.
{was l wrong in my ways, may be l am, maybe am not. l want nothing more than to free the human race from that devil, that claim to be god, l guess my method was not the best} Alex thought, as his ninety five years of life flashes before him.
{Ahhh, maybe William is right anyways, you can't fight fire with fire and expect the aftermath to be beautiful, may be! Just may be} Alex thought as been in disarray since talking with William three hours ago.
He believes he could and should have made different choice, when his father explain what has been going on and still going to him, all Alex could do is run around on how to sort out a solution for their predicament they find themselves in.
"William, the leader of the Yanci is none other than the so call king, you make look up to him like a god but he is no god, his the devil incarnate himself, maybe l did not choose the best way to approach it, but am truly looking out for the human race. You can choose to believe me or not but l want you to listen and understand the entire story behind it all and you can decide what to do afterwards! Am truly sorry for your mother's death" Alex said as blood sip out of his mouth.
"I figure that much out already but what entire story are you talking about?" William asked, a bit confused at the change of heart of Alex, or is it because he destroy Alex heart, William wonders.
William start to channel bit of his energy into Alex to help him hold on for a while long because William know that, with the damage his had done to Alex body, Alex is meant to die just few second after he delivery this blow, but here he is still holding on Which tells just how much he really want William to hear him.
Alex choose to remain silence, he can feel William energy slide into him and how strongly it was trying to repair the damage it previous caused but Alex knew the action it meaningless, so Alex choose to wait for who the flying car brought to this base.
Barely a minute later, a man of stocky built can be seen coming from the cave entrance. The man visibly stops as he takes in the scene in front of him.
"Father, it's okay, it my time, we all going to die eventually, but please explain everything you have told me to William, l believe he is the best person who can help us and continue from where l stop, William you can stop supporting me with your energy now, and my father is a better person than l am so he will make things easy for you" Alex said, a genuine smile surface on his face.
"Rest now" William places his left hand on Alex's left shoulder as he slowly removes his right hand from Alex chest.
"They say no perfect death exist but this is close enough to it for me" Alex said, Alex closed his eyes as his took his last breath, While William carried him to rest his back on the wall away from the littering bodies and heads of the previous awakens.
William stand and stay four feet away from Alex, William look towards the man Alex called father and try studying his expression but apart from sadness and anger, no expression surface on the man's father.
The sadness and anger William can perfectly understand it since the man's son is just killed in front of him but William is sure the man's sadness is for his son death but at the same time his anger is not direct towards him, it like his anger is for someone else entirely, this confuse William.
William is the one who killed his son, in fact Alex blood is literally still dripping down from his right arm right now as the man make his way to his son.
The man goes on one knee at his son front as he caresses his face; the man closed his eye and takes a minute silence for his son.
William just stood there and watches the man say his goodbyes to his son.
"Take and clean your hand boy, l will explain everything to you as we go to the capital city" the man take off the jacket he was wearing on his shirt and stretched it to William as he stand and try to start walking towards the entrance that leads out of the cave.
But William did not take the man's jacket, William stretch out his right arm and his energy coat his arm and the energy dry up the blood in a blink of an eye.
"Oh, l never thought vital qi could do that" the man said, and immediately William curiosity became peak, at what the man called the energy he use.
They both start making their ways out of the cave, they both walk in silence. One man at the front and the other at the back, each man with his own thoughts.
William really wants to know what is going on here with these people and with this so called king. What kind of a man is he?
What are his thoughts exactly?
Each man move with he own purposes and determination.
William finally choose to take his mind away from all the questions that trouble's him for now and take a good look at the man in his front.
