Chapter 23

Violin was playing, Champaign was pouring and toast was being made. It was a romantic evening for all the couples inside the restaurant. Veronica elegantly cut off a bite size meat and place it in her out. She looks at Genesis who sits across from her sitting down in an unethical manner. His leg was crossed and he was drinking soda from a can.

- We are on a date, it looks like we are making progress -

Veronica though to herself.

" The food's quite good isn't it Genesis ?"

He didn't reply.

" This is my favorite restaurant, you showed me your favorite spot and I showed you mine "

He still didn't reply, Veronica was upset. She was trying to set the mood by starting up a conversation but he was dodging all her advances. Genesis has zero experience when it comes to romances or women. The only thing he knows is 1000 ways of killing his victims.

" Are you listening? Hey, I'm talking to you ?! "

Veronica said.

- We are getting nowhere like this, Why is he so afraid to open up to over people ? If he doesn't talk to me then this date will be absolutely pointless -

Veronica started to think of ways she could get to talk to her.

" Hm? "

Genesis open his eyes and notice two people walking over to him. One of them was familiar. It's leon and with him a woman with long shiny black hair, She was very beautiful. Veronica mood dampened the moment she saw him.

" Hey Veronica, funny seeing you here, I've haven't seen you since the funeral "

" Leon do you mind, we are having dinner together "

Veronica looks at him with disgust in her eyes. The woman with Leon smirked and she started to ridicule Veronica.

" Baby, is she the one you had eyes for.. I can see why you dumped her, she's not much to look at "

She said then she looks at Genesis.

" Is this the one who you have eyes for, I just say you're taste in men leave much to be desired. I mean look at how he dress, Is he so poor he can't afford a outfit? "

She started to laugh, veronica was pretty upset, not only did they interrupted their dinner but she's also insulting her date.

" Leon why don't you put you're chihuahua back on its leash? "

Veronica said. The girl didn't like this and started cursing at Veronica.

" Who are you calling a chihuahua?! You don't know who are messing with "

Genesis got up and as he got up leon was frightened. After the incident at the party Genesis left a mental scar on leon. Whenever he remembers Genesis cold eyes he feels terrified.

" W-what are you going to do? "

Leon ask nervously.

"Hm? I'm going to do nothing, Hey let's go "

Genesis said to Veronica. She got up and followed him. As they walked away Leons female companion continue to insult them.

" Looking at them, running away.. Coward "

Genesis stopped walking because this is the second time he as been called a coward. As the woman snuggle up to leon out of nowhere a bowl of piping hot soup was throw on her face.

" aaaaaaaaaaaaaahhh "

The woman screamed in pain holding her face.The level to which she was screaming indicate to how hot the soup was. Those who was in the restaurant saw and didn't no anything.

" Damn whore, you talk to much "

Said Genesis as he was holding the empty bowl on his hand. His expression indicate that he was very angry. The woman looks at genesis, her face was red and her skin was swelling .

" Running your mouth like you're a big shot, you've manage to piss me off.....hey "

Genesis looks at leon who shake in fear.

" Are you going to play the hero and save your woman? "

He ask.

" I would never "

Leon said, his female companion was shocked to here that he wasn't going to get revenge for her. She was even more shocked to see that leon was afraid of Genesis.

" I didn't think so "

And so veronica and genesis left. Veronica cruised on the highway while driving. She looks at genesis as she dissapointed they her date was ruined. In the end all her efforts was gone to waste.

" I'm sorry you had to go through that "

Veronica apologize.

" Don't be, those fools had it comming.....hm? "

Genesis look through the rare view mirror as a black BMW was following them. He got a closer to look to see that there was four men inside the car.

"We're being followed "

Genesis said, veronica was suprised and look around. She couldn't see the car because of the blinding headlight. Veronica trusted genesis words and turned back around.

" Why do you think they're following us? "

To answer Veronica question Genesis leaned back in the car and relax.

" Three reason for following someone, 1 to blackmail and two hold for information "

" what's numbed three? "

Veronica ask and genesis replied by pointing ahead with his index finger. Veronica looks ahead and stepped on the break. What was in front of them was cars blocking the road and 10 group of men with high powered weapons.

" Let's go "

Genesis grabbed Veronica and blasted a hole in the roof of the car. He jump out of the car that was showered with bullets. The attackers turn their bullet toward Genesis in the air and fire continuously. Veronica was uncomfortable by the position genesis was holding her. He was holding her under his arm like a bag

" Hey ! "

Genesis suddenly slapped Veronica on her butt very hard, she lets out a little yelp while feeling flustered.

" Keep still "

Genesis said.

They landed behind the car that was being riddled with bullets and genesis puts his foot on the bumper. Suddenly, The car started , shift into gear and drive full speed forward by itself.

It drives towards the men who kept shooting at the car but nothing was stopping it. They jumped out of its way and watch it crashed in the other cars. They got up and continue to fire but it was futile,all their bullets reflected back to them, hitting their limb just as genesis planned.

" When going to war a soldier much always prepare to die, well this is a slaughtering ground so prepared to get slaughtered ! "

Genesis laughed and stomped his foot on the road. Suddenly, the road moved in like tidal waves. The attacker continue to fire at the road nothing worked. They were thrown into the air by the ripple of the road. Most fall to the ground, breaking their necks and crushing internal organs. Others was crushed to death by the cars that fall on them.

" Genesis behind you "

" Hm ?"

Genesis turned around and saw a few guys carrying high powered weapons. He was dissapointed because he was hoping to fight evolvers but in the end he only got a few regular human with guns.

" Tch, You guys are so annoying "

He said.

" You have one chance boy, Hand over the girl and we'll let you go "

Said one of the men.

"Huh ? let me go, You people sure are arrogant hiding behind your guns like that.. It would save me the trouble if I just kill you "

Genesis said.

" This is no time to play hero... We have Seymour as a hostage, If you want to sew your brother again, You'll come with us "

" What, you have brother?! "

Veronica got scared when one of the guys showed Veronica a video footage of Seymour tied to a chair with his face covered with blood. She panicked a little then she got very angry at the attackers

" What, what did you do to my brother?! "

" If you want to spare, your brothers life, come with me immediately "

One of them hold out their hands to Veronica. She was a bit reluctant to go with them so she turned to Genesis to hear his opinion.

" Genesis? "

" If you want to go and save your brother, that's your problem not mine "

" Thank you "

So veronica and genesis went with them. They were talking to an abandoned airstrip and they parked outside a plane hanger. They were lead inside to the dark room.

" Where is he, where is brother ?! "

Veronica ask.

" I'm right here "

Suddenly, the light came on, Veronica and genesis founded themselves surrounded with over a hundred of men with high-powered weapons. Seymour was standing with them unscathed and in a happy mood. Veronica was to suprised that he's not hurt, it's more suprising that he's with her kidnapper.

" I'm so glad you couldn't join us, dear sister "

" Brother... What's the meaning of this?! "

Veronica ask.

" Calm down sister allow me to explain... This are all my people, I was the one who ask them to bring you here. "

" But.. You.. You were kidnapped and beaten up, I saw you "

" That was nothing but a fake video "

Seymour explains, veronica was shocked. Her trusted older brother tricked her like this.

" W-why are you doing this brother? "

Veronica ask.

" It's simple, Dearest sister... I'm going to kill you "

Seymour casually stated with a smile.
