Decided to make a second chapter since people liked my first one. Second FF. 50 mins half asleep. Comment and give advice! English is not my first language. I feel this is worse than Chapter 1..maybe I'm not as descriptive, maybe it's the dialogue. Ehh, Who knows? If I make a Chapter 3 I'll make sure to make it beast.
Chapter 2: Last Minute Hope
Thug #1 (Boss): “HYAHAHAHAHA!” “HYAHAHAHA!” “I DON'T THINK YOU EVEN KNOW WHAT YOU'RE RUNNING FROM!” “HYAAAAHAHA!”
His screams surrounded me. I tried to see from where he was screaming but as I tried to look, I found myself turning around in circles. This scares me, I can't see him anywhere. In fact, now that I think of it I haven't seen anyone for a while. What's going on? I have been running for miles now, or at least that's what I think for with every second that passes my fatigue increases tenfold..but if this is true..then, how come the streets have been empty all this time?
I clenched my fist as I ran, looked down while closing my eyes and in a deluded attempt to relieve myself, I said:
(Gasping for air): “Why is this happening to me?” “What misfortune..”
Then, suddenly.
(Shocked): “What the-!?”
I stopped running as I opened my eyes, but not because I was tired, instead it was because I saw a shadowy silhouette in front of me. Could it be? Could it be that this guy somehow managed to get in front of me without I not even noticing? No, I must be missing something, in fact, I think I've been missing something all along. How come no one has heard this frantic maniac's screams? How come I've felt that I've ran so much and yet, I haven't seen anybody? Am I having a nightmare? No. The cut in my abdomen that I was covering with my left hand reassured me that this was no dream.
In the midst of all this thinking, I found the courage to raise my head an see who or what was standing in front me.
Impossible.
Thug #1 (Boss): “You seem surprised?” “What, did you expect to run a little bit further?” “HAHAHAHA” “FOOL!”
Panic. Yes, a dreaded state of fear overwhelmed me and sent shivers throughout my body as I realized the man that's trying to kill me can finally have his moment Not only that, he somehow managed to get in front of me in a split second. With a diabolical smile from ear to ear and with a sinister look in his eyes that stared right into my soul, I was prepared for the worst. Who is this guy?
Thug #1 (Boss): “You're probably wondering why I came alone this time?” “Well, you see...that's because I KILLED EVERYBODY ELSE SO I COULD HAVE YOU ALL FOR MYSELF!” “HYAHAHAHAHA”
I was so scared I didn't know what to do. I was paralyzed.
(Frightened and Surprised): “H..How could you”.."When did you.."”You're not hu-”
Right punch. Left punch. Uppercut. Jab. It all happened so fast..my words were interrupted by a series of punches that left me completely disoriented.
(Spitting blood on the floor): *cough* *cough*
My whole body hurts. I mean, I know I'm not physically weak but for some reason his punches seemed so inhumane.
Thug #1 (Boss): “You should stop talking, don't you think!?”
My eyes are closing, I'm struggling just to stand. Is this the end? Am I really going to die without knowing how or why or what or anything -for that matter- of my current situation?
What? He's grabbing me?
Thug #1 (Boss): “Now now, don't go falling on your own like that!”
He headbutted me right to the floor as he uttered those word. Honestly, the floor feels surprisingly comfortable compared to the punches I just received, or to the cuts I have throughout my whole body.
Thug # 1(Boss): “HYAHAHAHA” “You humans are really worthless after all!”
(In a weak voice, struggling): “Heh....so you weren't human after- ARGHHHHH!”
He stepped right in the middle of my back as I was finishing my sentence. This is it, I've lost half of my blood already due to the huge cut I have in my stomach and I've been beaten up to a pulp after having ran I don't know how many miles. I'm slowly fading away..all that is remaining are my thoughts. The only thing I could hear was this thing's maniacal laughter..
Thug #1 (Boss): “HYAHAHAHA” “HYAHAHAHA” “Just die already!”
Those were the words that kept echoing inside my head as I was slowly drifting into..someplace. I'm not really religious so that's why I can't say heaven, but from what I've heard...I really hope it's something like it. Why am I even bothering in trying to keep my eyes open? Might as well close them and last a few more seconds..
?????: “Stop!” “Please stop!” “ Don't hurt him anymore!” “I don't want this to happen again!” “Just take me..I won't resist this time..please..”
(With his last breath of air): “Wha..-”
I decided to use my last ounce of sheer will to open my eyes one final time.
Such beauty, it was like seeing an angel fall down from heaven. Her flawless skin accompanied by her luscious long, violet-ish hair made the girl I was seeing undoubtedly beautiful to anyone who laid eyes on her. She had a white, thin top that barely covered her more than fair bust. Other than that..she had two lines, in form of an X, that started at her top and ended in her short, tight white pants.*
(As he turns around, facing her) Thug #1 (Boss): “So you finally came.” “A little bit too late though because this guy is already dead.”
?????: “No..why..it's all because of me!” “I won't run anymore..I swear..just take me now..” “I don't want to cause anyone any more suffering..”
Thug #1 (Boss): “Glad you finally accepted your destiny..” “HYAHAHAHA” “Now die!” “HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARR!”
The crazed psychopath clapped his hands and screamed loudly as if he were about to vigorously pray for her death. Suddenly the ground starts to shake and a a huge rectangular shaped piece of the street launches out in the air right in front of him and heads directly towards her, aiming for her torso.
(Prepared to die)?????: “I'm sorry..everyone..I hope this is enough to-”
What!? She just stood there!? I was completely amazed at how she just let that piece of the ground hit her head on. The thing literally crushed her. As the smoke clears out from the clash, I see the projectile the guy sent took her to the floor..and I also realize she's not moving.
Thug # 1 (Boss): “Well..that was faster and more boring than I expected..”
She's dead!? The beautiful girl I just saw died right before my eyes and I did nothing! How could anyone do such a thing!? I might not understand anything of what's happening..but I cannot die knowing I did nothing to help this girl! I slowly started to stand back up.
(Sreaming): “ARGHHHHHH!” “HOW COULD YOU DO SUCH A THING!?”
Something begun to overcome me.
~To Be Continued~
Author's Notes: I know the description of the mysterious girl is short, but it's a temporary one. I'm still thinking of her design. The ending for me seemed kind of rushed, I don't know, I'm not satisfied with this Chapter as much as I was with my first one. I know you, as a reader, have a lot of questions. All of them will be answered in the next chapter. I promise next one will be better than the previous ones. Thanks for all the support!
