In a blink of an eye, Harry arrived within striking distance and swung out his fist towards Scott from below, aiming for an uppercut. Scott caught sight of the fist heading towards him at full force from below, and in the last second he took a step backwards and the fist missed him by a few inches.Before Harry could retrieve his outstretched arm, he caught a glimpse of Scott's fist traveling towards his face..Unable to react quickly, the fist connected neatly with his right cheek, and the force behind the punch lifted him off the floor and sent him crashing backwards. The whole crowd gasped collectively after watching Scott send Harry flying with a single punch. Shocked expression was evident on everyone's faces, and their gazes fixated on Scott who stood tall with his right fist clenched."Did he just...." A man who stood amongst the crowd muttered in disbelief.Harry laid down there on the floor for several minutes, his cheek red and swollen, and his blood boiling in anger."What
Scott's eyelids began to lift open as he slowly regained consciousness. He finally opened his eyes and glanced at the place he found himself. A monitor was beside his bed, and a blood bag was also beside him that was connected to his right hand to pass blood into his system. Just by glancing around, Scott could tell he was in the hospital."Ah, what happened?" Scott mused while rubbing his head. The last thing he could remember was his fight against Harry, and then he blacked out.He shifted his gaze towards the window and could see the afternoon sun shining brightly, and the chattering of people on the lower floor of the hospital could be heard.As Scott laid down there with a slight look of puzzle, the entrance door of the room flung open and a nurse walked in and made her way towards Scott."Good afternoon, Mr. Carden." The nurse greeted politely. "How are you feeling?" She asked."Uh...good. I'm okay." Scott affirmed."No pains?" She asked while checking up on Scott."No, no, not
"You mean I was asleep for two days?!" Scott blurted out in shock."Yes, Scott. You got all of us worried including your wife, Caroline. I'm really glad you are awake and well." Mr. Fernando remarked.Scot sat there in silence after hearing the words of Mr. Fernando. He was supposed to gave a meeting with Jordan and Chief Jim a day after his wedding, however, now that he was in coma for days, he has missed the meeting and he couldn't imagine how they would be feeling right now."A lot has happened in those two days you were asleep. Caroline's name has been signed under my properties, meaning she would be the one to inherit everything if I pass away. Also, Ice informed us that Mr. Leeray's amunition and weapons shipment has been postponed till Saturday which is in three days time. So we all need to be ready until then." Mr. Fernando informed in a calm tone, and Scott responded with a nod.Caroline already got what she wanted, now she has no use for Scott.'Any moment from now she would
Esmeralda froze after hearing the words of the Hunter, and her heart skipped a beat.Chief Jim noticed the frightful expression on her face and decided to raise a question."What's the matter? Who's that?" Esmeralda shifted her gaze towards him and whispered."The Hunter." Chief Jim's eyes widened in disbelief and he swiftly snatched the phone away from her, "End the broadcast now." He ordered Esmeralda, and before she could take a step forward the Hunter's voice was heard once again."IF YOU TRY TO END THIS LIVE BROADCAST I ALREADY HAVE A FEW OF MY GUYS STATIONED THERE AND THEY WILL SLIT THE THROATS OF YOUR CO-WORKERS." The hunter informed in the same deep and mechanical tone that resembles a robot."What do you want?" Chief Jim questioned."YOU GUYS WERE TALKING ABOUT ME, WEREN'T YOU? DON'T YOU THINK THE MAIN TOPIC OF THE DAY SHOULD BE PRESENT IN THE DISCUSSION?" The Hunter remarked."I WANT YOU TO CONNECT THIS PHONE CALL TO THE SOUNDSYSTEM SO THE WHOLE CITY CAN HEAR ME LOUD AND C
The sun began to set and the day gradually become dark. The sound of thunder rumbling could be heard and also wind howling. It was obvious rain was about to fall heavily.Scott got off the bed and stretched his body. The pain he felt earlier has reduced and he was now able to move around without any stress.He walked towards the outfit already prepared for him by Mr. Fernando. It was a long black trenchcoat and a black trousers. Without wasting anytime, Scott wore the coat and trousers and began to make his way towards the exit door.He pushed the door open and stepped outside. Arriving outside the room, he caught a glimpse of the same beautiful nurse from earlier walking towards him."What are you doing, Mr. Carden?" The nurse questioned."What do you mean?" Scott responded with a question."Where are you going?" She asked."I'm leaving this place." Scott responded."No, you can't leave. You are still yet to recover fully so please go back inside and rest." The nurse countered."Look
Blake charged towards Jordan, his face bright red in anger, and when he arrived within striking distance he shoved Jordan to the floor and began to strangle him. "Hey, get off him!" Perez voiced out as he darted forward and pushed Blake off Jordan, making him release his neck. "You all need the calm down! Take a chill pill!" Perez voiced."Calm down?! This guy has been accusing me ever since we got back from the meeting venue. No matter how hard I try to prove my innocence it doesn't seem to work. Why are we the only ones getting suspected? Because we are new? We decided to join you all to stop another gang warfare from happening because the last one destroyed our lives! What other proof do you need!" Blake shouted, anger evident in his voice."If you can suspect us for being new in the team then you should as well suspect yourselves for being old. After all we don't know what you all have been cooking before we joined." Blake added."Relax, man, Jordan is a bit...on the edge. What h
Scott stepped forward and headed towards the computer. He pulled the chair backwards before sitting down and stretched his fingers."So, this is the image you want me to publish, eh?" Scott questioned."Yeah. The image contains information about Gang lords coming to the fighting arena tomorrow and it would be hosted by them. If people see it, including the hunter, the whole place would be crowded, making it easier for us to blend him and take down the Hunter when he arrives." Jordan responded."All right. I'll publish it on every single social media platforms to make sure it catches the attention of everyone just like you want." Scott remarked as he began to type away with his eyes glued to the screen in front of him.The whole place fell silent as Scott began to work, and the only sound that could be heard was the sound of Scott's fingers hitting the keyboard every now and then.A few minutes passed and Scott was still on it. He had managed to publish it in three different platforms
Scott stepped into the living room and took off his coat that was drenched and hung it on a hanger by the corner before making his way forward."Good evening, sir." Scott greeted after catching sight of Mr. Fernando sitting across the living room, blowing smoke, and sipping tequila."The doctors finally discharged you?" Mr. Fernando inquired with smoke oozing out of his mouth."Actually they didn't. But I feel fine so I decided to leave the place." Scott responded."I knew you wouldn't just lie in there doing nothing. That's one thing I like about you, you are always determined no matter how tired or injured you might be. During your fight against Harry, after you got stabbed, I thought you would step back and sound and alarm for us to intervene...but no, you still chose to fight your way out of it." Mr. Fernando commented, pride evident in his eyes as he glanced at Scott."I appreciate the kind words, sir. I thought since I was feeling well I should leave the hospital because I might
