Last Fight(5)

"Shit!" Gael is tired and he is scared, the two men he was with are now dead. He should of assumed that they would follow him, and he was being stupid for assuming that they weren't. Gael then spots a bolder, and he runs behind it to hide.

Gael then reloads his gun, how did they catch up to him this quickly? He is going to die, and he won't make it back to Ironhelm. His other men won't know that they are going to get targeted, and they are going to be surprised.

He just can't let that scenario happen, he is still their leader. He has to do his darn job even if there are some parts that he doesn't like. He is scared, but he won't end up as a terrible leader, he is responsible.

Gael sure is proud that the two men he brought with him were on high alert. If they weren't he would of died if they didn't spot someone following them. They both died which is a bit sad, but they bought him time to run and gain distance.

Gael looks around, and it's a flat Plainfield of snow, he can see for about 200 feet in any direction. His only shelter is the boulder he is hiding behind, but that's not big enoug. Gael looks around, and there is no other place for him to hide.

He is being realistic, and he is going to die soon, he just can't survive. This man is definitely skilled if they killed his men, and they are still after him. Gael himself isn't as good as he was years ago, he is rusty and old.

Gael can hear some footsteps, Gael then closes his eyes. He is going to have to fight this person, but he should atleast kill him. As Gael is about to go out and fight, he hears some horses behind him. He also hears gunshots, he turns, and sees four more men arriving to his aid.

Gael smiles as his luck has returned, wait no he can't laugh just yet. He hears a gunshot, and one of his men falls, he checks his position. By how he got shot the man must have been to his right, Gale decides to run to his left.

Gael turns around to the left of the bolder, and he peaks out. He sees the man in the ground trying to hide with the snow, Gale shoots, but misses the man. Petunia glances at Gael who quickly hides behind the boulder fast. He got shot at a/ he wasn't fast enough to dodge it, he almost screams but he is alive.

The three other men are distracting that guy so Gael decides to run again. He is going to use this distraction, and definitely disappear this time. As he runs he hears a few gunshots, and people falling from their horses. They are all dead now, and he is in a wide open area without cover.

Gael heads running behind him and he turns to shot the man, but his gun gets shot off his hand. "Darn it!" Gael says as he is defenseless, and he is face to face with Petunia.

Petunia has his gun pointed at Gael. "Don't worry I won't kill you, I need you to stay live for a while. From the information I was given, you're one of the leaders of those two gangs."

Gale has his hands low and still as he doesn't know who this man is, is he part of the SDA? "Listen I need to force out some information from you soon. Afterwards I will then have you be executed, isn't that just fun?" Perunia asked him with a serious face.

Gael knows that he is going to die to the government even if he did speak. "Alright then." Gael says and then immediately pulls out John to stab the man. Unfortunately Petunia kicks the knife out of his hand.

"You should give up now in your own terms or do I have to force you? I won't mind breaking you a bit, we just need you to speak for a bit. I won't mind making you immobilized for the rest of your life if you keep on playing with me." Petunia says as he lifts his gun to Gael's head.

"I thank you for giving the government such a great achievement that will be remembered for decades. History is in our side, and so I will hav-" Petunai is then shot multiple times before he could finish his sentence. Petunia turns around, and falls to the ground limp

Gael is a bit shocked, and he looks up to see a Zoryem smirking at him. "Who the hell are you, and why did you save my life? Sure I'm lucky enough to be saved, but who are you stranger?" Gael asks as he looks a bit familiar but he can't quite tell.

"I saved you because I want you to feel pain, I hate your gang so I want you to suffer. I want to hear you scream before you get captured by the authorities." The Zoryem says, and Gael just lost all of his luck again. "Well maybe it will be for the best to kill you right now."

"You absolute bastard." Gael says as he runs for Petunia's weapon, the Zoryem shots him in the foot. "Fuck!" Gael screams as he falls to the ground grabbing onto his foot.

"I'm pretty sure the SDA will be arriving anytime soon, I'm leaving. I'm not trying to get caught by them, but I hope you have fun with them. I want to know how they will treat you since I couldn't hurt you much." The Zoryem then walks past Gael.

"Oh almost forgot." The Zoryem kneels down, and he grabs John and the two other guns. "Can't have you kill youself can I, that will be too easy for you." He then leaves Gael alone to be captured and investigated. Gael has just lost, and there is no way he can get out now.

Lucas gently puts Ashly down, he stands up, and grabs his rifle. If he wants to help Ashly he needs to end this soon to get her help. Lucas can remember something from the past that he had forgotten. It was a memory that he is currently experiencing.

It happened way before Diego died, and a day after he got his first deer. Diego told him about how killing for survival wasn't entirely bad. He remembered asking Diego to elaborate so he could understand. He genuelty was confused by it, and wanted Diego to be more clear with what he said.

Diego told him that he should only kill in self defense to survive. He told him that causing the problem, and them killing to live wasn't an excuse. Diego told him about how murdering someone because you angered them didn't count. As in the future another person might take revenge won't give them the right to kill either.

If you caused the problem, and then have to kill to survive the consequences. Then it's equal to murder which is terrible, he told him how killing was natural. Diego told him how no one could ever change or get rid of that aspect from people.

Diego told him that it's only acceptable to kill when self defense was all one person did. Diego said that it sucked that these words were so difficult for people to follow. Diego told him how some people would twist those words for their benefits.

Dieog told him how no person should ever justify murder at all. Lucas remembers how Diego sat him down afterwards, and told him that he will meet the people in the future. Diego told him how it's sad, but he should himself never twist those words ever,

Lucas remembers that he also told Diego to not leave him. He said how to him Diego was like a father which he really appreciated. He remembered when Diego told him he found him a new family inside the district of Iriage even if they were a bit old.

Lucas then snaps out of this haze, and he is smiling, what a good man. He won't betray these words ever, he walks up to Daniel and Amir to help them out.

"Don't worry guys Ashly will be fine as long as we finish this soon. I managed to bandage her up properly, but I do have to get her help." Daniel and Amir nod. "I know what my limits are, but I'm going to do this for her well being."

Lucas looks out a window, and sees someone and he shots him. Lucas then points at another person, and shots them in the head. It feels weird, but he can't stop. "I'm not a good person Diego. I failed, but I don't care. I don't care if I helped cause this or it isn't self defense." Lucas says under his breath as he continues shooting.

He knows that he is the exact person he wanted to avoid being, but it's too late. They are all bad people, and he shouldn't feel bad for killing them. As he keeps on shooting he can't help, but think about Ashly. She would definitely hate him if she saw him like this or what he was thinking.

Lucas continues to shot, and whenever they are under fire he hides. As he reloads his gun he can hear Amir and Daniel getting into a shootout with a few of them. Lucas keeps on shooting, and he is getting distracted, his mind is clustered.

Lucas is then shot and he screams, but he doesn't falter. Lucas gets down, and checks on his injuries, he is bleeding fast. "Great." Lucas says as it hurts him a lot, unlike that of Ashly's. His looked much more worse, and he doesn't think he has any bandages left.

With Ashly he surely can get her help, but his injuries doesn't seem likely for him to live. Lucas is breathing fast trying to bare the pain, he takes his coat off, and his shirt is all bloody. He takes his shirt, off and uses it as a makeshift bandage that won't work too effectively.

Lucas still needs to move and help out, but his injuries could worsen. If he moves it could get worse, and he could bleed more which he doesn't want to happen. It's cold outside and Ashly does seem a bit warm, but he will check up on her soon. He needs her to survive, and he surly needs this to end now more than ever.

Lucas puts on his coat, and he stands up which hurts a lot to do. He struggles a bit, but he holds onto the window as support. Lucas then vomits a bit, but he continues shooting at the enemy.

Lucas counted exactly 13 people that he just killed within a minute. It hurts and maybe he should stop now, he did enough. "Hey you two, I'm going to rest for a bit. I got shot, and I don't feel good." Lucas tells Amir and Daniel as he sits down.

"Oh gosh, yeah sure go ahead, and rest Lucas. You did great and make sure to not pass out, Ashly needs you." Daniel says and Lucas turns to Ashly.

Lucas hopes that he doesn't grunt, but as he walks he almost screams. He looks at her and she looks a bit better, but she still needs medical attention. He sits down next to Ashly and checks his gun. He is low on ammunition, but it's almost over.

Lucas grabs the gun Ashly had, and he drags her to the corner. Lucas is going to wait it out, and he is going to use his body as a shield for her if it's necessary. Lucas is holding onto her, and he has his gun pointed around entrances.
