'A sprinkle of blood and heroism'

!!==[Niloy's POV]==!!

.

.

"Brother! What happened to you?"

I asked Raiden, as he fell down all of a sudden.

"Raiden?"- I stroked his back, He was shivering from top to bottom.

.

.

"Wake up!"-I shouted louder, now stricking him harder on his shoulders.

"Don't joke right now brat!"

Is he poisoned?

I held his face up, trying to take a look what happened to him suddenly-

His face, which now seemed cold and hue-less; frightened me to my death.

I opened his eyes- his cornea green and motionless, seeming like he is...dead.

I checked his pulse, it was running; but was a bit-off already.

He was poisoned for sure.

.

.

Suddenly, I heard the footsteps nearing us.

I had no options.

I was alone, my Boss unconscious and my brother dying.

So, I did what I had to.

I dragged both them into cover, and started waiting hidden near a blind turn of the passageway.

.

.

"Where are they?"-I heard their voice.

.

.

'One, Two, Three, Four and Five...and Six...

Nice.

Very nice.'

I counted the ruffians, and yeah- It was six of them in front of me.

"Looks like fate thinks of me as a superhero or something."-I said to myself. *in a low voice, obviously.*

"There!"

"See! bloodstains..."

"Someone has been dragged...towards there!"- one of them pointed towards where I was.

Dang it!

Seems, They noticed the blood from Boss's crapped leg.

But fortunately, I was standing at such a place where the passage-way was darker and broader that the previous narrow one, meaning anyone who is at the narrower end can't tell if someone is standing at the blind end; the place where the passage becomes broader and darker.

I knew, Even if they have noticed those bloodstains, I have a few seconds before they can find me hiding in the darkness.

.

.

I can see the lights coming from their torches, intensifying as they close in towards my place.

I waited, as they slowly advanced towards the broad passageway having their lights on.

As they came too close, I threw a shiny silver-titanium one Ducat coin towards them- which rolled through between where they were standing; turning their eyes as well as their guns with it's roll.

And, when they turned their eyes from the place where I was, they turned one thing more-

Their 'Attention'.

Which gave me what I wanted; opportunity.

And, I- having grabbed every opportunity I have come over from my childhood; was no late to grab it.

And, Just the same as I grabbed the opportunity-

I grabbed the neck of the one who was closer to me, knocking his senses off of his body-

*Kaboom!*

*Bang!*

Two bullets of my stinger ran down through legs of the next two,knocking them unconscious as they were thrown off from the aftershock.

"Okay! Three less now."-I exclaimed as I gave a smirk to the fourth one.

And he- like a person having too much faith on his gun, ended up trying to aim towards me with his gun.

And that got him kicked out with a thunderous kick on the neck- throwing him towards the fifth one; disturbing that person's stance too. Poor man!

I, seeing that it's hard to leave such a silvery chance- I made the fifth one to be the next to be kicked off, but I missed the sixth one when kicking the fifth one.

Seems like that brat made me lose my kicking streak. *sad lyf*

"I will kill you!"- The sixth one shouted as he was left standing alone, while all of his companions where now on the floor.

He ran towards me with his shiny Katana-like sword flaring high in the air, more high than a person being high on low grade...., Ahmm...let that be.

Slashing his sword here and there, he swissed down his sword like he would cut me down in half, only to get surprised about what I can do the next to him.

.

.

"Hey!"

"Wait!"

"Wait!"

"Wait!"

I shouted raising my hands, as the person attacking me stopped his sword perpendicularly to me; being reaction-caught because of my shout, just a few inches from my head.

Taking a deep breath, I spoke out trying hard- being breathless of all the kicking and punching I did on these punks.

-"At least give me time! Why so fast?"

I exclaimed, "Don't say you've got a train to board on."

The man attacking me withdrew his hands a bit, maybe in the reaction of my nonsense.

Seeing things going my way, I decided to continue my nonsense to another level.

"Look attacker dada*! I am almost unarmed with no bullets in my gun. Can you be a bit fair?"- I said, showing my empty gun.

"Ah? Be fair? Okay! I will complete your wish.", He threw his sword away; coming to a hand-to-hand combat stance.

"Let me see, what are you made up of!"- he challenged me.

Is he Fool? No.

He had better physique and appearance out of all those I just bashed off.

Seeing his confidence in himself, I indeed became a bit unsure if this plan was going wrong here.

.

.

Not long after, I can see my plan being really wrong as, I found myself punched and kicked from head to toe, almost draining off my strength with every moment passing by.

"..Hold on!", I said, smiling with my face now being covered with blood and sweat.

"You are tough, Aren't you?"- I spoke in a low voice him, wiping the blood off my face.

"Ehh? What are you sayin'?"- He came closer, trying to hear what I said.

And as he came closer, an Idea struck my mind hard.

As I had wiped my face right a moment ago, The blood and sweat on it was still dripping from my hands.

So, guess what?

I just spilled the blood in my hands, straight into his eyes-

Blinding him for a moment.

And at that moment-

I gave a punch on his neck, hitting the pressure point- disorienting him.

Getting a chance to fight back after all those minutes being bashed up by a 'hulk'*- I sprung my legs on both sides of his neck, trying to suffocate him out of struggle.

But, He immediately threw me down, while he- still being blind, took a defensive stance on my attacks relying on his hearing.

"Aren't you too tough?"

I spoke out, as he blocked my every punch coming right on his face.

"Okay then, I think you missed something!"

I said; hitting his groin hard-

"Aaaaaaah!" He cried out in ultimate pain- "You..! You! are a ch...cheater!"

He said, collapsing down.

"Heh, Cheater?"- I smiled, stroking off the dirt from my jacket-

"Cheating is feasible if it can save you!"
