"okay I think this was really a bad idea" I said with a shaky voice.
*SCREEEEEEECH*
I felt blood flow out of my ears after it's terrifying screech.
Immediately running back the way I came, "thankfully I didn't take any turns" I said as the sound of my breath grew louder than my voice.
Looking back at the creature in hope of some distance between us, just to see it running on all fours and only a few metres behind, "ohhh fuck, I fucked up, I fucked up pretty bad" I said while trying to go faster.
I ran at an outrageous speed barely escaping the sudden attempts of the creature to grab me. "Thank God I can already see the border " I said looking hopeful.
*BAM*
I got swat to the side just a few metres to the border. "Aghhhhhhh I think I broke my arm while instinctively trying to block that!!!!" I yelled in agony.
Looking at my mangled arm and looking at the creature slowly coming closer and then looking at the border. "Don't tell me this how I die!!!" I yelled in pain and frustration.
Suddenly the creature paused and ran in another direction chasing an illusion of me. Immediately i took the opportunity to run into the border.
Thankfully My dagger had left a scratch on it when I blocked it's attack.
Now lying helpless at the bottom of the cliff and looking up wondering "how the fuck am I going to climb up now".
I passed out...
I woke up to unfamiliar discomfort and immediately realised I had fallen asleep at the bottom of the cliff.
As it suddenly came to me that my arm no longer hurt much and has even healed a little.
I spent most of the morning struggling to climb back up the cliff and eventually I did.
I rushed home and started a search for some basic first aid but got nothing much, "you guys have some Modern fashion but not a first aid uh" I said to myself in frustrated tone.
" You know what, fuck it" I said with anger and frustration and went to take a bath.
Now clean, I looked at my hand yet again but now I could feel the pain was most completely gone, "some I can regenerate uh? I asked, it's not like someone was going to reply anyway.
"I should make a cast so my hand does not heal crooked" I thought and immediately went for it.
~~
~~
Making the cast took me a little while but I was successful. Now feeling hungry I went to the kitchen and made the same porridge I made last time and that's because I can't really make anything else right now.
~~
~~
Now on my bed contemplating on my life choices.
I lied on bed for hours experiencing different emotions all at once "I told you not to go, I told you it was a bad idea" a thought came to mind, it was Jin speaking. I stayed silent not because I was speechless but because I couldn't understand the tremendous rage brewing in me. But this feeling wasn't unfamiliar it's happened once before when I was still Jin-hun.
_-_-_-_-_FLASHBACK_-_-_-_-_
At this time i was working solo and trying to move through the ranks quickly. One day I was given a mission to infiltrate a drug lord's gang to gather information and when am given the order to return, I am to destroy their cargo.
Things went smoothly I had successfully infiltrated the drug lord's gang as a member and gathered substantial information and had received my return order.
Not wasting much time I prepared my exit gift and placed them in different locations on the ship with the cargo but something felt off the ship once filled with chatters of gang members was now eerily quiet, realising my cover has been blown I tried getting out but I was caught and immediately tortured on the spot.
Completely surrounded by gang members and multiple nails protruding from my palms and legs making me immobile. Their leader now satisfied and wanting to kill me by hammering the last nail into my head was interrupted by one of the bombs going off.
They thought the bombs were trigger bombs when they saw a trigger in my hand but it wasn't, it was a time bomb. I was asked numerous times where I placed the bombs and who I was working for during torture but I never said a word because the bombs were my backup plan.
When the bomb finally went off a sense of relief washed over me as i was already thinking I would die before it went off
The second bomb went off and the third followed soon enough chaos ensued, taking the initiative I jumped off the ship and waited for rescue.
~~
~~
~~
A week went by, I was rescued and was admitted into the hospital, I gave my superiors all the information they needed to take down that fucker. While still in the hospital my friends visited Ho-gu included, we spoke for a while when Ho-gu made a comment "bro's been acting on untouchable during missions but finally someone got his ass with a nail". Everyone looked at him with the what the hell look, looking flustered he added "like I mean he always looked at us lame whenever we got severely injured, sometimes he says we let our fear of death stop us from doing the best thing, don't you guys remember " . "Well he did say that when I got shot in the neck" Dae-seong replied with euphemism.
"Well you were so close to completing your mission but you bailed because you were scared you will die" I replied Dae-seong with an unhinged tone, "well same with you now" Dae-seong replied sounding a little angry, "no unlike you I completed my mission even after being severely injured" I replied quickly with a cold stare. "But don't lie, you were scared of dying too right" Ho-gu asked with continuous glare as if waiting for my response.
"Yes I was" I replied looking down, "see we are all the same all humans fear death, you shouldn't feel above it" Ho-gu replied with a little smile as he adds "we should probably leave, I have something to get to" Ho-gu and the rest walks out of the room leaving me alone with my thoughts.
My pride crushed and ego bruised but it wasn't my friends fault it was Rodrigo Myuran the drug lord, he did this and luckily for him the government will make him pay.
~~
~~
~~
Two months passes, have recovered to be able to move around, feeling bored in the hospital I went to the office expecting to have an entertaining day but I found out something that threw me into rage.
Rodrigo Myuran haven't been caught yet, they say he disappeared after my operation. Disappointed and enraged I stormed out of the office and went straight to my house, got my guns and my passport and headed for the airport.
~~
~~
~~
Went through lot of procedures because of the guns but successfully got on the next flight to Indonesia.
Made plans during the flight and when I got off after 6hrs i immediately began executing it.
1: find one of Rodrigo's close friend, which I can do by finding someone that knows them.
Lucky I found one of Rodrigo's close friend's father. He wasn't cooperative with my questioning but he eventually gave me the information I need after I had drilled two nails into his leg
~~
~~
~~
I eventually caught one of Rodrigo's close friend and requested for Rodrigo's family location which I got after I had to drill some nails into his body.
2: second step I know Rodrigo loves his family really much I could tell by the frequent calls from his family and passionate face he displays whenever they call, so step two is find the family.
I found them in no time. To enter I had to disguise myself as an electrician from the electrical company they use.
When I got in, I searched everywhere for Rodrigo in the name of fixing wires but to no avail so instead of fixing I decided to make a lot of electrical errors so there will be a fire.
Which eventually did.
3: wait for Rodrigo to visit his family in the hospital then kidnap him.
Took some action to do this part but I fulfilled my goal and now I had Rodrigo Myuran captive.
I should be thinking of taking him back home right? But no I tortured him like he did me.
At first he looked hopeful someone will save him he must have thought but those hopes started crumbling when I showed him a picture of the lifeless body of one of his one friend and his father as I told him I was going to make him look like that in a few hours.
~~
~~
~~
After 5 straight hours the rented warehouse I was using was left looking like an horror scene. I was covered in blood and Rodrigo was already dead, I had drilled nails all over his body.
I dropped the hand drill while looking at the bloody mess I made.
I stared at his lifeless corpse for a while before going back to wash myself. When I was done took a picture of his corpse then left.
When I reached home and reported to my superiors I was questioned and suspended for sometime. But to be honest the only reason I killed Rodrigo was because he made me fear death, he made me like the others
_-_-_-_-_END OF FLASHBACK _-_-_-_-_
I stared at the roof for a while after that memory replayed itself, "at least I know why am so pissed" I said getting up from bed and walking to the balcony. At the balcony I glanced down only to see something that threw me into a murderous rage.
It was the same creature that fucked my hand up and almost killed me.
[Song recommended for this scene: Oneshot]
Boiling in rage while holding the balustrade I could almost feel it break.
Stormed back into my room grabbed my dagger went back to balcony and checked if it was still there, it was.
Walked to the end of the room with my dagger in hand and ran full speed towards the balcony and jumped out.
I crossed the border in the air which slowed me a bit but I was still falling at a dangerous speed.
I aimed at its shadow core ready to strike on impact
"DIE MOTHERFUCKER!!!" I yelled at the top of my lungs as I landed on its back and made a huge injury on it.
It lets out a loud screech but who gives a fuck I continued stabbing it over and over again till i could see what was referred as a shadow core and stabbed that as well numerous times till I was covered in black blood and the creature finally turns to ash blowing away in the wind.
