Clay had been so distracted,she had only noticed it very late and now,she had no way of stopping it.She could have moved back but she knew that there was no escaping it,it was coming at her fast and Clay was visibly lagging already.Clay could do nothing else other than watch as the brace came closer in slow motion and finally sunk into her ribs, throwing what little balance she had left off and pushing her in to the railings.Clay's side exploded in a sea of pain as she bent to grab her side,her mind racing and her senses temporarily dulled and even her eyes had somehow become blurry as the pain overwhelmed her." OH HO OH FOLKS !!!? DO YOU SEE THAT!?? THE MUTE MUST BE IN TREMENDOUS PAIN AND HE DOES NOT LET THAT AFFECT HIS PRODUCTIVITY !!!!HE IS ALREADY COOKING UP PLANS FOR CLAY !!! AND THE BRACES ARE BACK OVER HIS FIST !!!!WELL , HE ALREADY LOST ONE ARM , SO HE IS OF COURSE MAKING DO WITH WHAT LITTLE RESOURCES HE HAS !!! AND THAT HIT TO CLAY'S RIBS !!!! WE CAN ONLY IMAGINE WHAT KIN
" OKAY !!! CLAY HAS ATTACKED AND THIS TIME , HE IS HOLDING DOWN THE MUTE AS HE TRIES TO GET THE BRACES OFF AND HOPEFULLY WITHOUT BREAKING ANY MORE OF THE MUTE BECAUSE WE CAN NOT AFFORD TO HAVE HIM WITH ANOTHER BROKEN BONE OR RATHER , BROKEN LIMB !!! "."WE CAN ALL ASSUME THAT CLAY GETTING NAMED THE AUTOBOT KILLER WAS NOT A MISTAKE NOW!!!! BECAUSE WE CAN ALL SEE THAT SHE DOESN'T JUST BREAK MACHINES!!! SHE ALSO BREAKS HUMANS LIKE SHE DOES TO AUTOBOTS AND SHE SIMPLY DOES NOT CARE ABOUT THE SIZE OR NATURE OF THE SUBJECT OF HER HITS!!!",The Commentator was screaming now.And if there was one thing that all of his screaming was doing,it was making Clay even more antsy.She turned to The mute who she held in a lock while she struggled to get the braces off his fingers.As she struggled to get the braces off, The mute only struggled more with her, making it harder for her to even do anything.The Mute was not making it easy for Clay to take off the braces , he had balled his fists and what ha
Clay stared vaguely at the ground like she was not really there and it was just an evil, grinning apparition that was here for other reasons.She kept attacking and attacking,all the while with her face visibly cold and unemotional.It almost felt as if she had somehow contacted whatever mental issues The Mute had been boasting of a few minutes back."Saul?....",June called before slowly taking her attention off the fact that she had just been about to say something to him,her eyes were solely focused just on Clay and what was happening with her.Saul slowly stood up,his eyes all the while on Clay as he tried to figure out what was going on and why she looked the way she looked.She didn't look normal to him and he had a bad feeling about where all of this was going."Saul...I don't think Clay is okay",June called as she slowly also got on her feet,her eyes not leaving Clay's for once.The blood from The Mute's body has made a quite artistic template on the floor and on Clay's boot bu
Clay stepped back.She walked with her back till she was at the cage door,there she turned around and waited for the door to be opened,her eyes downcast,as she avoided the light of the stage that was shining down on her.The light was illuminating and drawing attention to every part of her, especially the parts of her that were still drippy and red with The Mute's blood.Standing under the light made it hard for her to hide those features of her.This made Clay lift her head up because she did not want to be faced with the decision and choices she had made.Her head was raised high as she glared at the gate, waiting for it to be opened.She was only glaring because she could not imagine what she would have to be doing if she wasn't glaring." AND WE HAVE OUR WINNER OF THE FOURTH AND FINAL MATCH UP BETWEEN CLAY AND THE MUTE !!!! CLAY HAS DESTROYED HER OPPONENT !!!! SHE HAS UTTERLY AND COMPLETELY ENDED HER MATCH WITH HELP FROM NONE OTHER THAN THE DEVIL !!!",The Commentator was being qui
June looked between them in amusement and eventually chose to settle on looking at Clay's face instead,it was the better of the two faces after all.She watched as Clay grimaced while watching The mute get taken away."You should be glad and not worried,if you hadn't done your best like you did,you would have been the one getting carried out and the rest of our team would be without a head",She told Clay who slowly turned to look at her, taking her eyes off the cage and what was being done around it.They smiled at each other softly."I heard you call out my name severally",Clay told her with a grin as she walked a bit closer to her.June shook her head and then shrugged."You probably heard wrong",She answered, staring right at Clay who only smiled wider.Clay's smile was setting June off so she turned to glare harder at Clay."And you...I felt you looking at me several times. Why were you also staring at me?",She questioned rashly out of a necessity to say something when she could n
Clay and June exchanged equal looks of curiosity when they heard what Saul had said.June was the first to react as she hurriedly shrugged in reply to whatever Clay was going to say even before she said it.They both hurriedly turned to find Saul already almost completely dissapearing as he had been walking after Vasquez."Hey! Wait up,old man!",June called as she ran after Saul's dissapearing figure, waving her hands about while Clay also tried to catch up with all of them without losing her cool like June had done.Clay had only followed behind Saul after hearing that whatever they were going to discuss about had something to do with the Gamemaster even though she would much rather return to the church and lay her head down somewhere to rest.She sighed as she remembered that the church was no longer how it used to be and finding a place to rest might not be as easy as she thought.She shook her head as she walked behind them, studying them as she followed behind them.She had no id
June's voice was carrying louder and more violent now and even though the others had said nothing,they felt the same way she felt about being here so they let her be and only looked on as she kept talking."I don't want to remain here any longer!",She mentioned as she eyed Vasquez skeptically and hissed in his face.Clay knew that there was something going on here that she and June were not aware of.First of all,she had noticed how they were less violent towards each other.She had briefly Wondered if the fighting had gotten rid of whatever ill feelings that had risen up within them but then she had realized that if indeed that was what had happened, then Vasquez would be too busy licking his wounds and would not be here trying to have a discussion with them.So,this new found understanding between them had nothing to do with the fighting,it was something entirely different, something about the Gamemaster like Saul had mentioned earlier."Clay?",June called out aloud, jarring Clay fr
The room was as quiet as a graveyard in the middle of the night.The others all stared at each other to be sure that they had heard the same thing before they all then turned to face Vasquez since it was obvious that they had all heard the same thing.At this point, Vasquez confessing that he had said the wrong words was the only way to salvage what they had heard.They all stared at Vasquez, unmoving and unable to decide whether to believe what he had just said or to ask him to repeat his words.Strangely enough,a part of them could tell that Vasquez was being truthful with what he had said.It was hard to believe but it was also impossible not to believe that the Patrons did not intend to let them out,after all,they had locked them up here and killed off several of the participants like they were flies,how hard could it be for them to also make sure that whoever survived the game never made it out?Saul on the other hand had thought as much especially since he was aware that most of
