Deadly Encounters

The woman shrugged helplessly and left.

"Yeah, Just go away!" the girl shouted from behind and gulped down the drink. Joe and Lynd also finished watching their drama.

"Damn! Why do all the beautiful girls turn out bro-con? Can't they see any other guy? What is wrong with their eyes?" Lynd complained.

"Like you?" Joe looked at him with disdain.

"What is wrong with me? I am handsome, no?" Lynd looked proud. Joe didn't bother to argue with him. He stood up and walked towards the washroom.

The washroom was behind the bar separated by a corridor that also connect to the kitchen and stock room. The passage wasn't straight but created an arc so one could not see who is coming or going from the other side.

Joe could hear someone talk as he walked towards the washroom.

"I gave the spiked drink to her as you instructed."

"Good job. Here is your reward."

Joe couldn't see who they were but knew that they were up to no good and he decided to keep an eye on them. So he brought out a black metallic ball at the size of a marble and threw it gently toward them. The ball turned into a small ladybug and crawled to the floor.

Then joe who entered the washroom kept following them through the ladybug spying bot. Spying bot has many variations. But model: ladybugs are best for tracking. So joe kept tracking the suspicious man who headed back inside the pub.

After he came back from the washroom, he sat beside lynd who was drunk.

"Oi, get up, get up." Joe pushed him but lynd didn't budge.

"Bloody Drunkards!" Joe cussed. He then checked his spy controller to see where is the ladybug right now. He found out that the signal is moving toward the exit door. When he looked at the door and saw a man with an average look walk alongside a buff guy, he knew that the culprit was among the two of them.

Joe started to follow them. They went outside and started to act sneaky. Joe felt even more sure that they were not good people and that they are definitely going to do something bad.

As he was thinking about what they might be up to, he saw them split into two groups and go different ways. The bulky guy was alone and he entered an alleyway. The others who followed him throughout the road didn't go with him.

Joe checked his controller to see if his tracker bug is on the bulky guy. As he was going to bring out the tracker, he noticed that the girl he saw in the pub was walking in front of him. Between the girl and Joe, this group of scoundrels laughed out loud as they gossips. But their eyes were always on her.

Joe also became surprised. He could now connect the dots without even seeing his tracking controller. But still, he looked at the controller and became confirmed of it. These bastards are stalking her and definitely going to do something bad with her.

The girl was barely walking straight. Seeing that one of them laughed and said, "hehe hehe, Aww.. look at her. Can't walk straight now then What will happen later?"

Joe immediately recognized the voice as the one he heard back in the pub.

"Cannot wait to taste her long legs." another commented vulgarly. Joe who listened to them couldn't control his anger. He disappeared from that place and climbed onto a nearby building.

He followed the girl from the building top. He jumped from one building to another like a jumping spider. He also changed his clothes to a blue cloak and covered his face in a ghost mask. From a distance, it looks like a blue specter is chasing something.

When the girl was moving forward wobblingly, the group of miscreants finally decided to surround her.

"Oh beautiful lady, looks like you are not feeling well."

The girl was feeling drowsy. But when she noticed a group of men surrounding her with nasty smiles she sobered up a little bit. But she couldn't keep her eyes open.

"Go away! or I will scream."

"Aiyo! We are just trying to help you. Come with us. We will deliver you safe and sound."

Saying that he tried to grab her hand. But as he moved his hand forward, something horrifying happened next.

Piuu!

His hand was blasted by a gunshot and blood & gore drenched him in the face. His hand was gone before his brain could register the pain. But he screamed bloodcurdlingly the next moment. His companion was shocked and terrified by the sudden attack.

Arrrggh!

Everyone screamed except for the girl who lost consciousness at this moment. Whether it is due to shock or being drugged cannot be said.

"Bastard! Who are you? come out and face me."

BanG!

Another shot was fired. It pierced the skull of another. Instant Death.

After that everyone started running for their life, they escaped from whatever path they could.

But not all of them were lucky enough to escape alive or with all of their limbs intact.

"Shit! Fuck! Fuck! Fuck! Who is this guy? Why is he attacking us?" said one of them hiding behind a thick iron wall. Across him, another guy hid behind a dumpster.

"It's coming from that building over there." the man who hid behind a dumpster pointed at a three-storied building.

Zhoosshhh!

A terrifying aura chilled their backs with cold sweat.

A strange clashing sound rang out, and the terrifying aura split apart the iron wall and struck behind the wall.

The one who hid behind the iron wall was scared. "run" he screamed and ran. He tried to enter a house by breaking through the window. But another shot was fired and it pierced his back and came out to the front.

Blood drenched his body and pain caused his mind to turn blank. He began to lose blood quickly.

"please save me. I don't want to die." he slumped down the wall below the window with blood dying the whole place red. He looked very miserable and sad as he cried and begged for life. His companion who hid behind a dumpster saw him but didn't come forward to help him.

But then a bullet shot crushed his forehead and he died. His companion stopped himself from making a sound by covering his mouth with his palm.

On the other hand, Joe who played the role of grim reaper was very calm and collected. His demeanor said that he is used to this kind of thing.
