The chase

López is surprised by Gerard's reaction when he pulls out that firearm. He is worried about himself and had no way of reacting to that situation.

Arnold's friend did not know the exact location of the hideout, but he knew the gang's route through that city. And if very likely, this path that the gang always takes is directly linked to the arrival of this hiding place.

Since López knew about the suspicious movements of the gang and Gerard's subordinates, he had a feeling that the leader would also be there to see his subordinates leave the city. Soon, López thought of staying in a hidden place waiting for the leader of the gang to pass by.

After Gerard draws his gun, López tells him:

"Don't think about shooting. You can't do this now, can you?"

"How not? What do you think I am? A little angel? Hahaha!" Gerard laughs sarcastically.

Suddenly, Gerard shoots López who dodges very quickly and runs after his car. The bullets hit the rear window. Then Gerard shoots again and hits the other front window of López's car.

López is in prison and had no way of reacting at the height of the situation. He looks quite worried. Although he could get into the car to try and get away from the leader of the Akai gang, he doesn't opt for it and decides to run right then and there.

Gerard notices López's quick movement as he runs out from behind the car. The car was in a horizontal position, blocking the road. The day was overcast and the clouds were a little scattered.

The head of the gang, upon noticing the escape, runs after him and passes López's car. He sees just ahead and shoots again. López manages to dodge once more by jumping to the left side of the corner.

Gerard doesn't give up and runs to try to catch up. As he turned the corner, López tripped him between his legs and landed with his body on the ground, but managed to absorb the impact with his hands, dropping the gun and her, falling to the ground. López tries to get the gun, but he can't because he is intercepted by Gerard.

After that clash, López, upon seeing the manager lying on the ground, took advantage of his whole body being erect and well articulated, and kicked Gerard in the chin, leaving blood from the manager's mouth.

Gerard drops to the ground and then lifts his head. He starts to get really angry.

"You bastard! You will pay me back for what you did to me now!"

López, upon hearing this, does not allow himself to be provoked. López had no way to fight back, as Gerard once again had the gun in his hands.

Seeing that dangerous situation, López starts to run away from Gerard again, running quickly to try to lose the leader of the faction.

Gerard notices López's quick movement when he raises his head a little. He gets up bleeding from his face, from his cheese. He gets very angry with López. And he starts running after him again.

Seeing the leader running once more, López is worried when he looks back, as Gerard was already steps away from closing the distance of that chase. However, López was faster and managed to look away from the leader of the gang.

Gerard could no longer see López in front of him, due to his high speed. So when López turns the other corner, he's smart enough to see his own car parked in the middle of the road as he rounds the big block.

"Where did he go? He's too fast." Gerard regrets not being able to keep up with López.

Upon arriving at his car, López gets in the car and leaves increasing speed. He finally manages to get away from the gang leader.

Gerard, upon realizing that he could no longer see López, goes back to where his car was parked. And he sees something he hadn't noticed before. López's car was not there.

"So he actually managed to get away from me. Looks like he already left with the car."

Bloodied by López's hit, Gerard gets into his car and heads to his hideout from the Akai gang. Arriving there, it starts to rain heavily. Upon entering the gang's main house, he immediately calls for some of his subordinates to tend to the wound on his chin.

"What happened to you, sir?" Asks a subordinate.

"Nothing much. Bring me the bandages!" exclaims Gerald.

"Yes sir!"

Subordinates bring bandages to Gerard and begin to look after their leader. Meanwhile, López calls Arnold who was already awake and answers the call:

"Hey, where are you?" asks Lopez.

"I'm here by the coast. You won't believe what happened here. Say it, Arnold.

"I can already imagine what happened. Was the leader of that gang there? And that?"

"Yes, and I went after him when he approached me. I was hiding behind a big wall around here on the corner. I'm still here alone. And you?"

"Wow, I'm glad you're okay. I thought something happened to you just now after you said that," claimed López, worried.

"I'm not fine. I only took two punches and I ended up passing out. But I'm already awake. Don't worry about me now."

López later tells what happened to him earlier. Arnold is quite surprised.

"My God! How terrible!"

The two end the call. López was already at his house, lying in bed. Then he leaves his room. He had two glasses of water and stopped in the kitchen for a while.

Arnold returns to walk through the streets of the city, while it was raining heavily. The city was dark with heavy clouds. At the given moment, he places his arm and his left shoulder on the corner of the wall, with his body lowered, and looks attentively ahead, saying:

"You will feel in your skin everything you have done all these years."
