Chapter 75
Ross looked at Gunner and he could feel the different aura building into him. What he saw earlier was a weak kid but suddenly it changes into something different. His eyes were fury yet it was something different that he couldn't take a word into it.
'Gunner," he mouthed and couldn't take his eyes away from him while Samson was there standing and grinning ear to ear.
Samson let out a laugh as he pointed his index finger on him, 'What kind of look is that? Should I be scared now? I am just going to show it to you but I guess my wish had come true," he commented as he clench his fist and was ready for him to take his first attack.
He knows that Ross will not be able to stand or fight anymore due to his condition and he is free to do whatever he wanted to do to the young frail kid.
'I will make this easy, kid. I'll be gentle on you just like what I did to your twin," he said and without a second thought he jolted to a run and jump for a kick and his target was Gunner's jaw.
Samson's eyes were eager and excitement was evident in his eyes. His eyes were locked on his target that he didn't want to blink. He felt like he was in ecstasy as his legs were already near on his target. In just a blink of an eye like a lightning his foot landed on the wall. Samson's eyes widened as he was shock when someone whispered into his ears. Gunner was just there next to him and it was like he was frozen to his feet.
'Missed me," he whispered to Samson and took a jump back when he tried to sway his hand right to his direction.
Samson's fingers were like a rake with those long hard nails of him he could easily ripped and scrape a flesh out of the human body.
Meanwhile Ross was completely shocked as to what he has witnessed within his two eyes. He couldn't believe that it was Gunner who is in front of him. He knows he could fight but the Gunner who is fighting now with Samson was different. He also knew that he had stitch him his skin back and induced him a serum that he couldn't feel pain but that is not an enough explanation why he could act like that.
There was something in his eyes that he couldn't explain what and why. There were so many questions running through his mind including the serums which Gunner had visited most of the time that he is stealing some food. He also wonders if he steals one of those serums that could regain his energy back and would put different skills into him.
Samson chuckled as he stares at Gunner and licked his lips and came rushing into him with his nails ready to dig out in any parts of his body but his target was on his chest.
He screamed as he was ready to slash his nails into his face down to his chest but once again he missed and found Gunner next to him and before he could even move a bit Samson found himself crushed on the wall. With Gunner's force pushing his head against the wall; he buried his own face in the surface, causing a massive destruction.
'My turn," Gunner murmured as he pushes his head again on the wall.
Samson put all of his force in his arms and pulls out his head on the wall. Gunner jump back smoothly and before Samson could even turn his head to him he was welcomed by a kick in his jaw which makes him flew hard smashing his back through the wall.
Samson groaned but he was smiling looking like he was enjoying every pain that he was feeling.
He laughed and raised his hands like surrendering, 'Finally a worthy opponent!" he shouted and again came rushing to Gunner's direction and rain him with punches that even Ross couldn't see his punches because it was too fast that he could only hear the noise it was making in the air. And Gunner effortlessly avoided it.
Gunner was smiling through the entire time as he skillfully avoided each punch that Samson is throwing at him. They were like fighting like a mortal combat. Samson seemed to be angry as he couldn't even hit or even put his hands on Gunner and he feels like he was teasing him as he stares at him grinning from ear to ear.
'I'll wipe that smile away from your horrible face!" Samson cried and throws him more punches and even kicks but Gunner effortlessly avoided it again and again.
"Go for it, horse face!" he mocked, and Samson was about to use his tactic skill to spin himself and deliver his tornado kick, but Gunner was already preparing the same tactics for him. He performed the spinning kick, which surprised Samson, and it was too late for him to react, and he was thrown against the wall.
Ross couldn't believe what he was seeing, even though he could move himself right there and help Gunner, he couldn't. It was as if Gunner had hypnotized him into not assisting him and instead letting him go about his business. He seemed to be avenging his twin brother for what Samson had done to him.
Samson was taking a lot of his attacks, while Gunner was easily avoiding all of his. They appear to be constantly throwing kicks and punches at each other, with Samson appearing to be the only one in jeopardy. Gunner's blood splattered out of his head like a shower as he tosses him kicks and punches, but he didn't even budge to stop. His blood and sweat were also drenched.
'Gunner," Ross whispered out of the moist air and slowly stands from his place and there he just watches them duel. He doesn't know what to do.
Gunner let out a scream which echoed the whole room as he took a jump and his hand were on fist pointing at the face of Samson and before he could took a step back it was too late. Adrenaline was running through his veins.
It was like the time had slowed down and Samson had been beheaded, and his blood was cascading down like rain. Leaving his own body standing and slowly bending his knee to Gunner who is standing like a winner looking down at him. And his head rolled down to where Ross direction is.
Ross looked at Gunner and he was looking pale already unlike from his physical appearance before. And within a second Gunner was about to faint and thankfully Ross catches him before his head collapsed with the ball of rock dropping from the wall. He looked at him and he was sweating with beads and his lips were already pale but still breathing yet it was shallow. Ross looked at Samson who was already dead and he sighs.
He still couldn't believe what had just happened and to think that Gunner have defeated Samson just like that it was unbelievable and even though he would repeat it again and again he was still in shock. Slowly he lifted Gunner and decided to take him to their room immediately and after that he would cleaned this messed up before Dr. Vega would see it. He knew that Dr. Vega would learn it in no time but still it would buy them a time to think for an escape and also to rest. Looking at the state of Gunner he couldn't take two persons to escape thinking that Slasher is still weak and Gunner is now unconscious and him that is getting back to normal slowly. But what is the good news for them is that their enemies are getting fewer than what he thinks. He also knew that there are still persons who have been experimented on but he didn't saw them and also as to what he knows the nun and the priest was still present.
Ross slowly puts him down to the bed and ensures that he was still breathing because he was worried at his state and after that he goes checked to Slasher and check if he was also still breathing. He took a deep breath when he was now sure that the two were all safe. He couldn't help but to smile as he imagined that they have made it and maybe it was the fate that meets them.
He combs his hair using his fingers and took a deep breath, 'I'm sorry," he uttered under his breath as he felt that it was his fault why their fate have met. And maybe the gods have send the two to save him because he was losing his path and now that he have found it he was the one who should do the right thing.
Ross noticed the bulging thing inside of Gunner jacket and he walked near him and takes a check on it. Who know it was a planted bomb and before he could unzip the zipper pocket of his jacket he notice some crumbs on it. As soon as he opens it he saw pieces of stone breads, chocolate bars, and candies and he even saw of at least two water bottles inside yet he managed to fight earlier even having these things on him. Ross smiled at the sight of his slumber sleep like he was dreaming of something nice.
And before he could forget and took his rest he needs to clean up the body of Samson before Dr. Vega sees it. Ross quietly exits the room and ensures that nobody was there and thankfully where Slasher's room is located there is no cctv there because it was crashed by someone who have gone wild and never got a time to repair it.
As soon as he was out of the room, he ran quickly to where Samson was and without a minute he had reached his destination and, suddenly, he halted in his position as he, looked like that Samson wasn't already there. Even his head wasn't there anymore, but he was so sure that he was in the right place where Gunner and Samson had taken their fight. He still could see blood trails on the floor, so he wasn't mistaken. He was starting to get worried, as Samson's body was missing. Who could ever take his body out of a sudden? Maybe that person was already lurking around all the time.
He prays that it wasn't Dr. Vega who had taken the body, but it was too much impossible to think that it was him. He wouldn't lay a finger on every dead person who he had put his experiments on. He didn't know why, but he was sure enough that if you touch the dead that he had injected his serums in, it will transfer the virus to you.
'Ibiza," a cold, weak voice called his name, which sent shivers down to his spine because that person was just behind him, yet he didn't even feel his aura near him. He was caught off guard.
Ross slowly turned his head at him and he got even nervous because their faces were so close to each other and he could smell his faint breath and odor like a decaying one.
It was the priest.
'You?" he said as he took a step back, 'Are you the one who got him out of here?" he asked, and the priest slowly nodded his head.
'Yes, I have been here all the time and watched Gunner fighting Samson. I was rooting for him," he commented, and looked at him with sincerity even though he didn't want to believe he had this feeling that he wanted to do so.
'What makes you think that I'll believe in you?" he asked, and the priest just smiled and Ross took his distance away from him, thinking that he was the one who took the body out of there.
Ross would clean his body but he would need to dump him with some sand from the wall that Samson had crushed on.
'I didn't touch the body. Don't worry, I am not that foolish enough not to know it. I want to live," he said, noticing that somehow his eyes were just like his… a normal one.
