THE GRAND PATRIARCH IS BACK

Chp 298 - Benevolent Friend

Gunshots resounded methodically and fast as released pigeons panicked in flight and tried to avoid their fates. One by one, they dropped as each shot took the life of each of them. Helplessly and unable to help one another, the birds flapped their wings in an attempt to escape. Their majestic flight was no match for the bullets intent on cutting short their lives.

One. Two. Three. Four. Five of them dropped miserably. Their wings were forever silenced from flapping. Some of them with the chance of letting out a last, agonised cry and others departed the world without a sound. The shooter paused for a moment and the last bird let out a triumphant call of celebration.

A sound that was shortlived as it was cut short by the release of another bullet accompanied by a booming sound. Like a brave warrior, the bird turned in the air as if to keep flying. Then, it dropped. Joining the litter of dead carcasses on the grounds of the shooting range.
