Chapter 74

Screams filled out the whole room as Samson quickly grabbed Ross' arm and threw him with all of his might through the wall. He hated his guts of throwing him dust and pebbles directly through his eyes which is now making him squinting and blinking until it was gone but it was all rusty. Ross hopes that it would take for how many minutes for him to recover from the dust and pebbles that he have thrown him but it was a failure. He fight like a weak stick and that is the only thing that cross into his mind.



'Is that all you got? Throwing like an old grumpy man? I wonder why Vega chooses you as one of his pets. You don't even fit here," he said as he prepared to attack him again.



Ross was cornered and was dizzy and his eyes were getting fuzzy, which made him hate himself for being so weak and not being able to throw him his kicks.



All he did was just take shots of the punches and kicks at him. Samson was right about him. He was weak with that kind of state of him, but if he was just like before, then he was sure he could beat him. But if he couldn't beat him in strength, then he should outsmart him.



Samson ran quickly in a flash through his direction and grabbed his shoulder, which his long nails dug into his flesh, which trailed blood and a sound of squish. Ross couldn't help but to yelp in pain as he flew in the air and his back was once again smashed through the wall.



He vomited blood and he didn't stop coughing and couching. He couldn't feel pain in his back but he was sure that the impact, was in his internal organs, causing him too much bleeding.



'What a boring duel you are giving me, Ibiza, please give me some ecstasy for me to feel alive again," he said with a slurry voice and groaned.



Samson faced the wall and punched it for so many times until his fists were bleeding, but he didn't stop until he wasn't satisfied. He screamed at the top of his lungs because he wanted someone who could fight him back. Sure he wanted to defeat and kill him in an instant but he had longed, for someone to fight for. He wanted someone whom he could torture, but for a long time he was a prisoner in a cell. He thought he had lost his drive, but seeing how he had beaten up Ibiza, the one who he was jealous of because he was the one who got injected with a perfect serum that Dr. Vega had never done it, but as he looked at him there was no trace of anything in him because he was weak and couldn't even throw him some kicks and punches.



Ross was coughing with blood and he couldn't stop it and noticed that some of his teeth were already gone and still bleeding. Maybe it was thrown away at the time he was smashed through the wall. He winced in pain as his head started throbbing in pain. It was unusual, but what did he expect because he was getting back into his normal state? As much as he wanted to shake his head, because somehow the blurry and dizziness he is feeling will somehow fade but he just couldn't. He felt his neck but he wasn't feeling pain, it was like he was injected by an anesthesia to not feel of anything, but he knew that it would subside in no matter of time when he was completely back into normal.



Samson took a look at him from head to toe and was starting to be bewildered.



'You have changed and I didn't even notice it. Did you drink it?" he asked, pertaining to the blue serum that was prohibited for them to drink and didn't even come across into his mind about getting one for himself because he already loved what Dr. Vega had made him to be.



He and Ross had the same perception in life that they saw themselves as an outcast to the outside world and that was the reason why they worked for Dr. Vega. At first they didn't know what horror was they were stepping into their lives, but what makes them unique to the eyes of Dr. Vega is that they didn't even feel the stale of fear, instead they felt the excitement and eagerness to be one of his people. Dr. Vega was working with other people inside who knew what he had been doing inside every night or every day and that the building was open to the public, but it was rare for it to be open because it was located in the heart of the forest. It was in the forest because it was said to the public that they were making medicines out of herbs and just by the help of nature, yet little did they know was it was all working deliberately in the horror and tragedy of doomsday in the world. Yet it was Samson who had been the first one whom Dr. Vega initiated to have is experiment on.



Ross looked at him having a second thought about if he should tell him the truth or what, but it would do nothing anyway even if he would tell him. He sighs and combs his hair using his fingers and somehow notices something sticky and liquid and when he looks at his hand it was blood. No wonder he felt dizzy and he slowly looked at the wall where he had been crushed by and it created a great impact on it.



He smiled and nodded as he met the eyes of Samson and he wasn't expecting that he would look surprised or horrified.



'You dare to steal? No wonder why he sends me to kill you impromptu," he said as he licked his fingers full of dust and blood.



Samson was already out of himself. He couldn't think normally because of the drugs that were induced to him which were slowly taking him every day. Those drugs were not ordinary drugs and those are special that Dr. Vega was just made for them. If ever those drugs will be completely perfect, then he would induce them into the subjects to be his astral armies. They are nothing just by a soul who can't be defeated to death, but they are also wild animals that even just a soldier can kill at least hundreds already in just a flick of time.



'I can, so why not," he uttered, having a hard time replying, but he was also having a hard time thinking about how to outsmart him.



In that kind of situation he is in now, he had a slight chance of living and maybe eat all of his words about surviving.



He just hoped that Gunner would never cross their way because, as much as he could remember they are on the other side of the wall and the left side route will be Gunner's way. He knew he had a strong instinct, so he was hoping for him to somehow feel something was going on and not to engage in their duel.



But knowing Gunner, he would interfere if he sees something is out of hand. Even though he had known him for just a couple of days he knows that Gunner is a nice guy and have such a lot of dreams but somehow what he sees in his eyes were different or maybe he just see things that wasn't there. He had seen it for just a single time and nothing more.





Samson tilted his head with so much questions squinted in his eyes. He slowly smiled and looked at him. His teeth were glistening which kind of slimy and he was drooling and his eyes were narrow and dark. He takes a walk and every step that he takes he was humming of something lullaby which he usually sings every night that he have done his torturing session. He somehow doesn't know where he had heard it but he remembers every word of lyrics of the song.



'I somehow have this song in my head and I think it is a lullaby, but I don't want to remember who the person is singing to it. I don't care and will never be," he said as he took a deep breath.



He played his hands and some of his flesh that was cut in his hands was swaying and he slowly pulling it away like elastic.

'Can I ask a thing?" he commented and Samson didn't even give a damn look at him. 'Don't you even wonder if you have fight for your dignity? If you have fight for yourself does it even cross to your mind about how many what ifs? What if you have fight for yourself even if no one is by your side? You're a teacher yet you look down on yourself and here you are now. What if you have fight for yourself and you have showed that their accuses on you were all wrong? You know… you have just taken all of it without fighting back but here you are showing me that you could fight even more," he stated as he looked at him in the eyes.



He fully understands his situation and what he is feeling right now because that is also what he feels from the time as he looks at the picture of his father and his cousins. He didn't yet drink a blue serum that time yet it was like he was taken aback by flashing memories and now he just hopes that Samson will also feel that way too.



Silence prevailed between the two of them as Samson face the wall and place his forehead to it. He was in a deep thought and Ross makes that time to at least rest and heal himself for a bit. He might fall off if he would take another throw again.

His heart beat quickened and racing like a wild horse because from his peripheral vision he saw Gunner just standing there with shock in his eyes while he stares at Samson.



Ross tries to get his attention without causing any distraction that would cease Samson and thankfully their eyes meet. From how many years that he has been there it was his first time to feel in trouble that he have been sweating cold. He stares at him telling him to run and he knows he gets it but he just stands there like a stud. For once in a while he wanted to punch him and yell at him to run but he just couldn't.



He mouthed him the word run but he still didn't even move an inch and it was too late when he saw Samson smiling as he was facing the wall.



Samson slowly turns his head where Gunner's direction is, 'What do we have here? Hello, Gunner, you really look like your brother." He laughed and snorted, 'Oh! You're twin right," he said and waves his hands through the air like a crazy maniac.

Gunner just looked at him terrified and couldn't even move from his feet. He wanted to punch himself because Ross was telling him to run off but he stayed there and now he is facing a demon in front of him. He couldn't imagine how Dr. Vega had turned him into a monster. A monster that he could only see in science fiction and horror movies. He was really starting to believe that Dr. Vega could do anything impossible turn to possible.



'You know him?" he said and he himself was surprised that even his hands were chilling and his heart was racing he didn't stuttered.

Samson let out a laugh and covers his mouth with his hand, 'Seems like? I can even smell his blood through my hands," he said as his eyes rolled up leaving only the white sclera with redness in the edges of his eyes as he sniffed his hands like he was in drug.

Gunner clenches his teeth and his hands formed into a fist causing his knuckles turns to white. He wanted to attack him but seeing the situation of Ross making him a second thought to do so.





'Let me show it to you."
