Chapter 2 Danger stands tall

"Emmet we—". Micah was sweating pretty badly, even his breathes became higher and words couldn't get out from the mouth.

"Micah don't get worried". Emmet was trying to cool down small Micah who perhaps was in bad shape can't able to help himself to get out of the deliberate state of fear.

"Alright! Alright calm him down". Festo hold down a wireless radio transmitter. "Hello I got him".

Waxier and Roomie were getting out of the building, were recently realized why they won't found him inside.

"Hold them down Festo we are coming".

"No, no need to come I will take care of them".

"Alright if you insist". Roomie put down the transmitter.

"What happened?". Waxier looks little bit confused as Roomie who once was extremely stressed and annoyed by not finding the child now looking fresh, cheerful and happy.

"He found out the child". Roomie throw a dazzling gaze to Waxier.

"Well that's good, but where is he now".

"There he is". Roomie was betokening at the far right where Festo was standing along with two kids.

"Then let's help him out". Intrepid Waxier staring at the assigned location.

"No".

"Why no".

"Because Festo said he want to handle this".

"Alright if that's the case then let him handle". Waxier was ambling away from the site.

"Hey! Wait why are you going?".

"What's the point in staying Festo want to take care of those kids and he alone can capable of eliminating them he doesn't need us so its pointless to stay".

'Hm! Waxier has a point but still I thought we have to after all they are war orphans and who knows maybe they are capable of saving themselves and we can't let them run away, there are many kids who started revolt against us we have to shut them down as soon as possible'.

"Roomie what take you so long come on". Waxier was already covers half of distance.

"No, I think we have to stay".

"Why".

"Come here".

Waxier with full of disgust follows rushing back the footsteps towards Roomie.

"Tell?".

"Well, you see Waxier. We can't let them escape we have to kill them, as you see many  teenager kids started revolt against us we have to break down their moral so that they would never dare to attack our government and if this two kids can manage to even escape then our reputation would be ruined and the incident even fueled the fire in revolting ones".  

"I think you have a point".

Both were keeping a keen eye on the situation, and were ready to assist Festo in full form if anything worse comes up.

Festo is pointing his machine gun to the two small kids. One was fully dread the other was yet attempt to make him fearless. On the same time realise this might be their end if he do nothing.

"So what's your last wish kid". Serene Festo facing to Emmet.

"Let us live". Emmet said.

"Aww! How dramatic you humans are too dramatic, knows well how to make other emotional". Wiping his face down. "But as you see I am not human so your dramas won't affect me". Cold Festo yet holding his Machine gun indicate its bullet end straight to Emmet.

"Curse them, now what he has gun and well we both have bare hands". Rolling eyes give a heating glare to Festo. "And this pathetic monster have two more supporters who are much like him old healthy bloody Slovak soldiers with machine guns they were coming here at any time".

"What should I do".  Emmet was feeling guilty about what he has done 'It was all my fault if I never went off for food then Slovak wouldn't detect and follow me'. Emmet felt Empathy about little Micah was much like him too small too die. 'Sorry Micah, I am extremely'. His head stoop down on ground, feeling a deep sense of grief about let Micah's life on the line.

"So you won't decide well then farewell". Festo was about to pull the trigger. "1..".

"2..".

Micah almost closed his eyes, as he doesn't want to see Emmet dead though he knows well he and Emmet both were going to die.

"3..".While Festo was busy counting three Emmet's eyes were staring at the sand dust. He smirks out. Grab huge amount of sand.

"Hey! What did you pick". Before Festo can do anything Emmet blew that dust towards him.

Due to sand its difficult for Festo to find them and moreover some grains of sand stick in his eyes. "My eyes my eyes I can't see". He was wailing in pain.

Micah was opening his eyes slowly, as he wondered whether Festo change his mind to kill them. But instead of clear Festo he saw a blurry Festo trapped inside a sandy air. He was still puzzling about why Festo appeared blurry and though in sand storm background. The boy was looking for Emmet.

While doing so someone gripped Micah's left hand. "Micah let's go".

"Emmet so it was done by you". The boy was grinning like a Cheshire cat.

"Yes". Both were ready to dash.

"Not so fast".

Kids were gulping their throat. Slowly face off to the voice.

"How the hell have you seen us".

"Hm-ha-ha-ha! Your plan was good but you are unfortunate".

"Unfortunate". Both kids were astound especially Emmet after all the boy had bluster spattering sand on him. And he saw him struggling for vision too so how the hell he detect the original position.

"Hm!". Ambling at two. "Unfortunate, you threw the sand it hinders my vision true and very tactical of you for making such an impressive idea, but I am not a normal Slovak as you see I have two layered eyes".

"Two layered eyes". Kids blurted out strongly.

"Yes, your sand can able to block my first layer completely, however second layer can able to see you, though blurred but as its enough to catch". Cool Festo now was exasperated. "And now I was going to end it fast". Mad Festo locked down on two. "Goodbye kids happy..".

"Micah run".

Before he could shoot both were running farther from Festo.

"Journey". Festo drop down the trigger.

A whole series of bullets screaming, roaring chasing the two.

But two won't stop their running they continue to run and constantly changing their direction, making Festo difficult to aim his targets.

But although he continues to fire, 'Let's see how long you can survive'.

On the other side Micah and Emmet without any agitation continue their changing direction rapidly. However in fluent change three bullets were following Micah and distance of those bullets were negligible Micah was 100% going to be hit by at least one bullet and if he do he might die as all bullets were following his back which if hit pierced down through his stomach.

'If any of them hit Micah would die'. Emmet immediately jump off to right push Micah and even dashed in his direction in order to save himself.

"Ahh". Micah moan in pain.

"I saved him". Puffed pretty badly, tittering to Micah.

"Why you hit me".

"To save you fool".

"To save me".

Festo was definitely not going to admire Emmet's attempt although instead of admiration the bald man's foul eyes severely cursing the boy. He decided to emptied all left bullets on Emmet. But as soon he spotted instead of firing it he was beaming at Emmet graciously.

"Hm-huh-haa, not bad".

"You are fool". Micah's fierce eyebrows shows some decent amount of annoyance for the boy.

"You are dead if I won't push y—". Emmet's right hand was shivering pretty badly. "And why I feel some vibrations in my right hand I even felt some pain too". He grasp the trembling part.

"Emmet you-your".

"Why you act so astound".

"Your hand is bleeding".

"M-my hand is bleeding". Giving a cold smirk to Micah he turn down to the part where he experienced vibrations, to his surprise his upper part from elbow was holed out and the blood was leaking from it. His left palm appears hellish bloody.

"Oh! I get it so that's why he stop further firings". Grinned down at bottom.

"This is not funny Emmet, you are injured. You are the only one on whom we relied for survival".

"Sounds like you are right Micah, but I am merely injured not dead we will still survive". Holding down his wound Emmet was arduous to stand.

"So how's the bullet".

"You still can't able to shoot us".

"Nope. I can". Festo said Frankly. "Your heroic attempt makes it even easier than before".

"Alright let's do a deal". Emmet sounded clear as this time without any mind games or tactics a fair genuine talk.

"Deal?".

"Yes".

"Alright what deal you wanna make?". Though Emmet's facial features were giving bright indications about honesty. But Festo yet have high indicative doubts on the boy.

"Your gang member spotted me and we manage to keep ourselves hidden because of my plan". Emmet sharply turn on to Micah. "And Micah doesn't have to do anything with this messes, he just happen to be trapped inside this".

"Ok! So..".

"So let Micah go or leave him instead kill me or make me your slave as you see Micah is even two years smaller than me I bet he couldn't proved to be helpful to you in any sector making him a slave is not going to benefit you in any way".

"What are you talking Emmet". Micah's face become sentimental.

"Shut up Micah". Emmet spot on small boy his eyes were full of vexation. Relaxing himself he turn back to evil Festo. "So what you say".

"Alright then prepare to die".

Grinning Festo, his fingers were badly itching to pull down the trigger.

"Die". The creature pull down the trigger, Closing his eyes child was waiting for his death which surely was about to come.

"Bent down Emmet".

"That voice". The shooting bullets were on their way to assassinate poor Emmet. Emmet's eyes were widely open spotting straight bullets, he bent down as the voice commanded.

Bullets were straightly passed through the site, broking the silent air buzzing further towards the figure who might seems new to the entire scene.

The figure without any hesitation or fear, gracefully jump off to the East. All four bullets were emptied down on the wall, straight to the road which seems to be entrance for this messy site.

Emmet was grinning at the figure, although kind of a grin which a victim gives after spotting a hero in a belief surely he may save him from the villain.

"You girl". Festo's whole body was enraging in anger.

The girl was very beautiful she have a long brown hair, frankly covering her back fully, she wore a purple skirt, blue gauntlet boots and dashing black gloves. The attire was a perfect match, without a doubt flaunting her voluptuous curves. She was undoubtedly the sexy one.

"Leave them". Valiant girl without wasting any moment holding the trigger, aiming straight to the bald Festo.

"You trying to scare me".

"Its not to scare you, take it as a warning". The eyebrows were heated, her blue eyes were indicating the possibilities of disastrous storm for the opponent.

"You know girl you are too cocky". Festo gave a smile of devil. "Doesn't matter whatever gender you are, you humans are all arrogant".

Festo expressing tyrannizing attitude for the girl. The girl remains unaffected move her right thumb to west.   "Despite of knowing the fact they can't win they still keep talking big talks you surely deserves—".

Girl pull down the trigger a shimmering rocket springe out from the gun.  

"No way you-you bastard fucking bitch".

Boom, Festo was destroyed totally, although girl was so smart she doesn't let him even get a hint about her move she fired exact to the target, before he could even counter the rocket burst down on him. The creature was moaning in pain and ultimately his body converts into holy ashes.

"Thanks Nina you saved us". Both kids zooming to Nina, hugged her legs tightly.

"No-No". Nina was feeling slight awkward about the situation. "Instead I have to appreciate you, for understanding the signal and left the site immediately".

Flumping down she nuzzling the two.
