"I only instructed you to do a single thing, Andy. Quite the martial arts club and this would be as easy as eating a coconut." A boy spoke while walking towards Andy who was tied up against a tree in the middle of the forest with a blindfold around his eyes.

He had blood trickling from the side of his lips with bruises allover his body. His school uniform torn to pieces after countless hours of torture that placed him at a really rough state. But one thing that Andy really never does is quiting.

That's a foreign language to him, especially not after working so hard to join the martial arts club. 

Only martial arts gives him a sense of belonging and, it's kind of strange how he enjoys seeing fists connecting with jaws and despair written on the opponent's face.

Not his opponents though, considering the fact that he had just been accepted to the club and he is yet to start his training.

But ever since his application was accepted, Andy was unwelcomed by the "big boys" of the club who have been forcing him to quit the club as he was replacing one of their closest friend, Anthony, who recently got an accent that placed him in a position that he wouldn't be able to compete in the next interschool competition.

But what these boys see as a replacement, Andy took it as an opportunity and he had already set his eyes on the goal, and there is just no way that he's going to blink.

"Coconut!? How's even eating a coconut easy?" Andy responded while spiting out a mouthful of blood "... Ouh, I get it now. It must be running in the family's blood to be always be stupid and dumb." He spoke with a cunning smile full of mockery on his face.

But this kind of earned him a punch on the stomach as the boy pulled his fist backwards and landed a heavy thrust on the side of his ribcage and knocking out the air in him and leaving him gasping for the air.

"You talk about my family once again and I'll slice off you balls and feed them to you." The boy spoke between his gritted teeth to Andy's ear.

"A man's threats from a b*tchy mouth. Congratulations, I'm scared now." He responded with a forced chuckle that came next to a laughter. "And just so you know, you really need to fix how you position your knuckles or you are going to always punch like a two days old b*tch."

"You really don't get it, do you!?" The boy shouted back as he grabbed Andy's jaws and squeezed them using his fingers.

"No I don't." Andy responded while twitching his neck and escaped the boy's fingers. " What kind of a fool would even apply a blind fold on my eyes when I can still tell who you are by your funcking stupid voice? No offense but like I said, it must really be running in the family's blood."

Hearing the taunt, the boy clenched his fist tight while pulling his raised elbow backwards. He then pushed forward and planted a perfect hock punch on the side of Andy's face and forcing him to spit out a mouthful of blood.

He then furiously grabbed the blindfold on Andy's face and tear it off as he let the moon's light to shine on Andy's piercing green eyes.

He grabbed Andy's face my the side and pointed to his right only for him to see a grave like hole dug on the ground not long ago.

"I wasn't hiding who I Am, I was saving this for the end of the party but it you just had to force for an early Merry Christmas."

"Ouh! That." Andy responded with a smile. "It's a really pretty hole, what do you want to do with it? Build me a banker?" He spoke and this certainly left the boy speechless while fuming with anger as nothing he had done came even close to breaking Andy and make him comply.

"I must admit though, it's kind of scary but..." Andy paused for a second as he turned his face and looked over to the boy. " Hello, Tommy Smoak, it's nice to finally see your face again." He paused, again, and looked over passed Tommy as his eyes landed on seven other boys standing behind the boy. 

"To be sincere with you, I only knew about your face, but I didn't know who your friends were... Well, I had a rough guess but now I have perfectly seen your faces and ... Good luck talking to my cop-dad." Andy muttered with a cunning smile.

It wasn't like these faces standing in front of him were new to Andy's eyes. He knew them all since from the childhood as this crew made it their job to turn Andy's life into a leaving hell.

Not just because he was joining martial arts club, no. They have always been on Andy's neck from a long time and that's one thing that Andy doesn't understand why.

It was like hate on the first site. That's the only way Andy could explain this as he had literally never done anything to offend them. 

Well, at least not at the beginning.

To some extend, we can say that Tommy and his crew were partially an influence for Andy to join the martial arts club as he wasn't just a type of standing back and watch himself getting bullied. He just had his ways of payback and it had been like that ever since he was eight, and now he's sixteen.

"No man, we can't do." One of the boys from behind spoke while taking a step forward. "We have crossed the line this time and if he tells his father about this, we are surely gonna end up in cells." He spoke.

"Don't worry. I have a plan to make sure he would never tell anybody of what happened here." Tommy spoke while looking at his friends with a devilish smile. "But I'm going to need you to leave first for the plan to work." He muttered.

"Are you sure, hoss?" He responded.

"Trust me, Ben." Tommy assured. "All of you leave and let's meet tomorrow at the club."

The crew didn't wait to be told twice as they all took their leave. And just after they disappeared, Tommy untied Andy from the tree and tied his hand from behind and forced him into the hole.

With Andy sat, Tommy buried Andy on the grave with just but his neck and face to be left on the surface.

"You know, I quit don't understand why." Tommy muttered after completing his task.

"Why you are so obsessed with me?" Andy responded.

"Jeez, you are so annoying and I funckin don't understand why my father would ask me to keep an eye on you."

"Wait, wait. Do you mind repeating what you have just said?" Andy responded as he was completely perplexed.

This came as a surprise to him. Tommy's dad, Andrea Smoak, is one of the most successful men around the city, owning one of the biggest company in the town know as the Future Tech, and it is a surprise that he would ask his son to keep a tab on a nobody like Andy.

He didn't know if to believe on what Tommy had just spoken but then, it wasn't like Tommy could just make this up considering the situation that they are right now.

"For eight years, I've kept an eye on you and reported everything to him. An annoying creature like you made me lose a lot of my best opportunities in my life.

"I couldn't go to better schools, I couldn't leave the country, I couldn't funkin live my life, as my father always instructed me to be close to you and learn of any changes happy around."

"You mean for eight years." Andy responded with an exclamation mark on his face. "And you never got tired? Damn I'm honored." 

"Gosh! You are always annoying." Tommy spoke back, almost screaming. "But guess what, not anymore.

"For months I've been plotting on this. I've watched you, I've learned you and I can literally predict any move you make next. 

"And that's why Anthony had to meet some accident and guess what, and do you. I'm guessing an animal attack wouldn't be much investigated." Tomy spoke and as those words escaped his mouth, something strange started happening around his eyes.

A yellow glow started to generate from his irises as his hands begun to enlarge with his fingernails elongating along side his fingernails.

A brown fur could be seen appearing around his hand that had transformed to a claw like, with the features of a mutt.

Seeing this, Andy's heart started to race faster as what was happening in front of his eyes could be considered as completely impossible, unless he was living in a fantasy novel or a fictional movie.

But Tommy never gave him a chance to digest this further as he swiped his hands towards Andy and his razor sharp fingernail slicing off Andy's neck.

Tommy didn't have much reason to stay here as he had already completed his assignment, and just after walking to some safer distance, something strange happened where Andy was buried.

A crimson flames suddenly emerged from the ground and enclosed Andy's visible parts of the body. It burned for about fifteen seconds and vanished, alongside Andy's lifeless body as he was nowhere to be seen again.
