Bloody As Hell

[STRONG PARENTAL CONTENT....SOME PARTS OF THE STORY ARE NOT FOR SENSITIVE READERS]

THIRD PERSON

"Did you find him?" sobrang lamig na banggit ni Cyril. His both fist is clench and his jaw keeps on twitching.

"I already did, Black. They're now at our headquarter." malamig ding tugon ni Brent. He didn't even dare to joke around. Kilala niya si Cyril and right now, he can kill just by his stare.

Nalipat ang nakakatakot na tingin nito sa kaniya. "They?" He steps backward because of the intensity of his voice.

He first swallowed. "Y-Yes. Dalawa sila. The first one is the one who shot Jade while the other one is the one who drive, he's inside the van, waiting for his partner to finish his work."

Mas lalong humigpit ang pagkakakuyom ng kamao ni Cyril dahil sa narinig. His hands are trembling in so much anger and he can feel himself boiling.

Athena is currently inside the operating room. Mag aapat na oras na simula ng dalhin niya ito sa ospital at hanggang ngayon ay hindi parin lumalabas ang doctor na gumagamot dito.

He wants to go inside. Natatakot siya sa pwedeng kalabasan ng operasyon nito. He's scared to lose her. No! He can't lose her.

But he just can't... He can't take to see his baby in that way. Mababaliw siya. Hindi niya kaya.

He can fight without fear, he can be in war without feeling any mercy but just seeing his baby got shot and bleed nearly drove him mad.

Saglit na nilingon ni Cyril ang pintuan ng operating room bago malakas na hinawi sa kaniyang harapan si Brent.

Brent is the only one who's with him. Michael and Christian are with the girls and they are currently eating.

"Ready my sword. This time, I won't make a noise."

With that words, Brent already know what's going to happen. Mabilis niyang hinawakan ang binata sa braso nito. "No, Black! You can't do this in that way!"

Tinignan siya ng masama ni Cyril dahilan para mapabitaw siya dito. He about to take a step back but Cyril was fast to hold his neck immediately. "Don't you fucking dare tell me what I should do. Stay behind, Blue..." he stop for a second. "...before I kill you."

Tsaka nito malakas na binitawan ang kaibigan. Napaupo at ilang beses na napaubo si Brent sa lakas ng pagkakatulak sa kaniya ni Cyril.

He was about to go out ng magsalita ang kaibigan. "Don't you want to see her?"

Napatigil siya sa tanong nito. His fist clenched. "I can't.."

"Mark-"

"I just can't. Hindi ko kaya, Brent. I can't take to look at her while she's bleeding and being operated. It will drive me crazy. I'll lost my sanity."

He starts walking outside hospital and hurriedly ride his car. Mabilis ang pagpapatakbo niya nito at wala siyang pakialam kung may masagasaan man. He even continue driving without giving a fuck about the red traffic lights.

Ayaw niya ng manatili doon lalo na't nandoon si Brent. Nag aalab ang galit sa loob loob niya. His lust to kill is getting higher and higher. And he don't want to hurt Brent anymore. Nasaktan niya na to at ayaw niyang mas masaktan pa ito ulit.

Kinuha niya ang bluetooth headset at agad iyong isinuot tsaka may tinawagan.

His Cleaning Team. The one who cleans their mess.

"Vasco..." tawag niya sa pangalan ng humahawak sa team na yun.

'Boss?'

"Main headquarter. We have to do something special. Now." simple pero matalim na sabi niya.

'Coming, boss. Do I have to bring the team?'

Cyril sighed. "Yes." and after that, he ended the call.

Cleaning Team is just one of the teams he have in Killa Maffia. He even have the teams that others don't have.

That's the perks of being in the highest rank. More benefits, easy to kill.

Except of Cleaning Team, he also have the Assassination Team and the Tracker Team.

The Assassination Team. it the one who plays the most role in their gang. Sila ang madalas na nagtratrabaho, lalo na pag busy si Cyril. They are the one who terminates the enemy. Kadalasang sila ang tinatawag ni Cyril pag kailangan niya ng mga snipers. And Nicolas is the one who leads the team.

The other one is the Tracker Team. Brent is the one who leads them. They are the one who's responsible in the tracking area. Sila ang pinakamadalang makita ni Cyril. They just always talk in monitor or in phone. His Tracker Team usually just stays at his team's headquarter.

May sariling headquarter ang tatlong team niya. Doon sila madalas tumatambay pag hindi sila kailangan ni Cyril.

Pagtapos tawagan ni Cyril si Vasco, he called another person.

"Nicolas..." he coldly said. Nicholas is the one who leads the Assassination Team.

'Need anything, boss?'

"Call Blue and ask him the name of the hospital where I left Athena. And immediately put snipers around the hospital. Also put bodyguards in front of the emergency room and instantly call me when you feel something is suspicious." mahabang sagot niya.

'Copy, boss.'

"And make sure to ready my sword."

'B-Boss?'

Nag igting ang bagang niya. "Don't make me repeat myself." tanging sabi niya bago ito babaan ng telepono..

Humigpit ang kapit ni Cyril sa manibela ng maalala na naman ang huling sinabi ni Athena. The way she says I love you to him is scary. It's like it was going to be the last.

'No! Fucking stop thinking nonsense! Hindi siya mawawala sa akin. Hindi ako papayag'

He couldn't calm down. He's livid at the moment. His hands want to feel blood - and he will get it. Whoever shots his baby will surely suffer slowly and painfully.

Ng makarating siya sa headquarter, agad niyang itinigil ang sasakyan at bumaba doon.

Vasco's the one who he sees immediately. Naghihintay ito sa kaniya.

"Boss, they are inside." saad nito sa kaniya bago nag swipe ng card. Vasco entered and Cyril also swipes his card before he enter.

He took a deep heavy breath, hoping that it will calm him down. But no, he still can't. Maybe because he doesn't want to calm down at all.

No. Those parasites don't deserve his mercy. They deserve to see the real him. The monstrous side of him.

Ilang hakbang pa ang tinahak niya bago tuluyang makita ang dalawa na nagpupumiglas sa pagkakapit ng kaniyang mga tauhan.

"Here they are, boss." ani Vasco ng makalapit sa kanila.

Walang buhay niyang tinignan ang dalawang lalaki.

"Who pulled the trigger?" walang emosyon ang boses na tanong niya.

Kinuwelyuhan ni Vasco ang isang lalaki na nasa kanan. "This one, boss."

Walang imik niyang nilapitan ang lalaki at malakas na hinila ang kanang kamay nito. Mahigpit ang pagkakakapit niya doon.

"W-What are y-you d-doing?"

Kadabo nitong tanong ng biglang hugutin ni Cyril ang katana na nakalagay sa strap na nasa likuran ni Vasco at walang sabi sabing pinutol ang kamay nito.

The motherfucker screamed in so much pain as the blood keeps spurting from his cutted hand. But he didn't feel anything. Not pity nor mercy.

"Don't scream yet. I'm just starting." aniya tsaka binitawan ang putol nitong kamay. Ang isa naman nitong kamay ang kaniyang hinawakan. "I'm very sure that you use two hands in holding the sniper gun." pagkasabi niyon ay agad niyang pinutol ang isa pa nitong kamay dahilan para mas lumakas ang sigaw nito.

Wala siyang pakialam na binitawan ang putol nitong kamay bago bumaling sa isa pang lalaki na gulat na nakatingin sa kaniya.

"You. What did you do?"

Imbes na sagutin siya nito, bigla na lang itong sumigaw. "Diablos will kill you!"

A cold deadly smile creep into his lips. "Fuck you." aniya tsaka walang sabi sabing sinakal ang lalaki. Nagpupumiglas ito pero hindi ito makaalis sa pagkakasakal niya. Hinila niya ito patungo sa isang kwarto kung saan napakaraming baril at kutsilyo.

Malakas niya itong itinapon sa may dingding dahilan para mapasigaw ito.

"Scream and I'll kill you."

Agad namang tumahimik ang lalaki. Dahan dahan niya itong nilapitan at dahan dahan rin naman itong umaatras palayo sa kaniya.

Nakaupo ito pero nakataas ang tingin nito sa kaniya. "Stand."

Hindi ito sumunod. "I said stand!"

Nanginginig na napatayo ang lalaki at mabilis na tumakbo palayo sa kaniya pero mas mabilis siya kaysa dito. Madali niya itong nahuli at muling sinakal.

"You even dare to escape, huh?"

Nagpupumiglas ang lalaki pero mas hinigpitan niya lang ang sakal dito. Malakas niya itong ibinalibag sa dingding ng hindi tinatanggal ang kamay niya sa leeg nito.

"Tell me, who ordered the hit?" nagtatangis ang bagang na tanong niya. "Give me a name."

"Tsk! Why would I?"

"Because we're inside this room now and I can kill you whenever I want. Test my patience and you'll die." itinaas niya ito sa ere. "So better speak up."

Halos hindi na makahinga ang lalaki sa higpit ng kagkakakapit niya. Naghihina nitong pinalo ang kamay niya. "F-F-Fine! F-Fine!"

Binitawan niya ang lalaki at bumagsak ito sa sahig. Ilang beses pa itong napaubo habang nakahawak sa leeg nito. "I'm a h-hacker and the one who ordered the hit is Alessandro Bianchi! He wants to take revenge because you killed his son! But even though you know the name, you can't get him! His house is very well guarded. You can't do anything to him." habol nito ang hininga. "Now, I already answered your question. Let me go."

"Let you go?" tumaas ang sulok ng labi niya. "What do you take me for? Stupid?" malakas niyang sinipa ang lalaki. Ng mamilipit ito sa sakit, humakbang siya palayo dito at kumuha ng isang katana at walang tingin tingin na ibinato iyon sa lalaki.

And to his measure, sa tiyan ito tinamaan. Nilingon niya ang lalaki at gulat itong nakatingin sa kaniyang tiyan na tinamaan nga. "Whoever hurts my woman will know death by the name of Black."

Bumalik siya sa harapan ng lalaki at hinugot ang katana sa tiyan nito. Kaagad namang nasapo ng lalaki ang tiyan na nasaksak. "D-Do you t-t-think y-you can kill m-me by s-stabbing me?"

He coldly smile. "Of course not." tinignan niya sa mata ang lalaki. "You're still breathing because I don't want to kill you yet. I want you feel death slowly and fearly."

Bago pa makasagot ang lalaki, malakas niya ulit itong sinipa dahilan para mas dumugo ang tiyan nito. Nagsisigaw ito sa sakit.

Ng makuntento si Cyril sa nakikita, walang pagdadalawang isip niyang itinurok ang kaniyang katana sa mukha nito.

Napaiwas siya ng tingin ng tumilamsik ang dugo nito. Hinugot niya ang kaniyang katana sa mukha nito. Gumawa iyon ng tunog ng bitawan niya at nahulog sa sahig.

Cyril thought that killing one of them will make him satisfied and calm but it wasn't. Hanggang ngayon ay nanginginig parin siya sa galit. It wasn't enough. He still wants more.

Naglakad siya palabas ng kwartong iyon at bumungad sa kaniya si Vasco. Gulat ang mukha nito habang nakatingin sa kaniya. "B-Boss..."

"Clean that mess." aniya ng walang emosyon bago ito iwan. Narinig niya naman itong may inutusan para maglinis na.

It looks like Vasco knew him too well to brought enough men to clean his mess.

Bumalik siya sa lalaking pinutulan niya ng kamay at humarap dito. Kitang kita ang sakit sa mukha nito pero halatang humihinga parin ito.

"Snipers..." he whispered. "you really have a strong endurance to pain." ngumisi siya. "Tsk! Surely we're going to enjoy this...you and I."

Mahigpit na hinawakan ni Cyril ang baba ng lalaki. "Scream, okay?" nanlalaki ang mata na sabi niya bago pabalibag na binitawan ang baba niya.

Humakbang siya ng ilang layo sa lalaki bago kinuha ang katana sa isa sa mga kasamahan niya. Ilang beses niya iyong ipinaikot ikot sa kaniyang kamay hanggang sa tumigil iyon sa leeg ng lalaking nasa harapan niya.

Malamig na natawa si Cyril ng makita niya itong mapalunok. "Scared? You should be."

"A-Ano pa bang g-gusto mo?!" nagtatapang tapangan na sigaw sa kaniya ng lalaki. "P-Pinatay mo na ang kasama k-ko! Ano pang k-kailangan mo?!"

Hindi napigilang mag init ang ulo ni Cyril sa sinabi ng lalaki. "Kailangan ko?" he stop for a second. "Buhay mo! You fucking hurt my woman!"

Galit na sigaw niya at mas idinikit ang katana sa leeg ng lalaki. His breathing is fast and his blood is boiling.

Pilit niyang kinalma ang sarili. He still wants to play. Hindi niya siya pwedeng patayin na lang ito bigla. He wants him to feel the fear and the pain that he felt when they shot his beloved.

Binaba niya ang katana. "Hold him up." utos niya sa mga kasama na agad naman nilang sinunod. Hinawakan nila ito sa balikat dahil putol na ang magkabilaang kamay nito.

He first, sigh before looking directly at the man's eyes. "Now, what do you want to be cut off first? Your right leg?" tinignan niya ang kanang paa nito. "Or your left?" tsaka tinignan naman ang kaliwa.

Nakita niya kung paano nagpumiglas ang lalaki at kung paano dumaan ang takot sa mga mata nito. "N-No.."

'That's right. Be frightened.' Cyril thought.

Itinaas niya ang kamay na may hawak na katana at ginamit niya iyon para patinginin sa kaniya ang lalaki. "Make sure to scream, okay?"

Hindi pa man nakakakurap ang lalaki, agad niya ng pinutol ng sabay ang magkabilaang paa nito. Malakas na napahiyaw ang lalaki sa sakit at bumagsak sa sahig.

Cyril didn't felt anything as he cuts of the man's feet. Walang awa o pagdadalawang isip man lang.

"That's for hurting my baby...and this," and immediately buried his katana at the man's forehead. "is for making her bleed."

Ng tuluyan ng bumagsak ang walang buhay na katawan ng lalaki, binitawan niya rin ang katana niya na gumawa ng malakas na ingay.

And then Vasco spoked. "Clean that mess now. Make sure not to leave any blood." pagkasabi nito ay kaagad nitong pinulot ang katana niya, pinunasan yun at iniabot sa kaniya.

Ng tanggapin niya yun, inabutan din siya nito ng wet wipes. "Also clean yourself, boss. You look like and smell like shit." natawa siya ng mahina sa sinabi nito. "Thanks, Vasco."

Nginitian lang siya nito at tinignan ang sahig ng umiiling iling. "I know it's going to be messy but I never know that it's going to be THIS messy." bulong nito at diniinan pa ang 'this'.

Mahina niyang tinapik sa balikat ang tagalinis nila ng kalat. "It's not called special for nothing, Vasco."

"It's special, indeed."

Ngumisi siya bago muling tinignan ang sahig na nililinis na ng mga tauhan ni Vasco.

He sighed before turning his back. Lalabas na sana siya ng headquarter ng pigilan siya ni Vasco. "What are you going to do with Alessandro Bianchi, boss?"

"Kill him, of course." sagot niya ng walang pag aalinlangan.

"But...he's well protected and his house is heavily guarded."

Nginisihan niya ang tauhan. "Vasco tell me, when did a heavily guarded person stopped me?"

Ngumisi na rin si Vasco. "I'll get ready then."

Tinanguan niya ang tauhan bago nagsalitang muli. "It's going to be a long night. Make sure to bring many."

"I will, boss."

Sumeryoso ang mukha niya. "Good."

Tumaas ang sulok ng labi ni Vasco sa sinabi niya. "It's not called special for nothing."

Cyril chuckled. "You're learning fast, I like it."

Vasco chuckled too. "Thanks, boss." Cyril just nodded before finally going out.

Habang naglalakad pabalik sa kaniyang kotse, narinig niyang tumunog ang phone and it's Brent calling. When he answered the call, it's not Brent who spoke. It is Michael.

'What did you do was ruthless, Mark!' kaagad na pangaral nito sa kaniya. 'It was merciless! I know that you feel nothing when killing but please! Please stop doing that way of killing. It's not healthy for you.'

"But they hurt my Athena." pagtatanggol niya sa sarili.

'Kahit na! I didn't stop you in killing them but not in that way! That was monstrous, Mark!'

"I am a monster."

'You are not!' malakas at may diing sabi ni Michael.

Natahimik siya. It's always like this. Him, doing inhumane things while Michael controlling him. Michael always says that he's not a monster and it was not healthy for him to act that way.

'What do you think Athena will say if she'll know this?' tanong ni Michael. Kaagad naman siyang natigilan.

"She won't know."

'I thought you won't keep any secrets from her anymore?'

"No..." bulong ni Cyril. "No. She can't know this. She...she just can't..."

'Exactly me point, man.' Michael let out a loud breath. 'What do you think she'll say or do if she founds out that her fiance just cutted off someones arms and legs and fucking just shove a katana to someones face? Huh?!'

Malakas na kumabog ang dibdib niya. "She..she will get horrify and...and s-she will l-leave me."

'It's so good that you know.' Michael tsked. 'Stop that way of killing, Mark. Control it. It's not you, okay? Remember, you are not a monster.'

Cyril sighed. "I'm not a monster," and finally he smiled. "copy that."

'Good. Now let's talk about Alessandro. When do you plan to end him?' tanong ni Michael.

"Tonight."

'Need our help?' Michael asked. "Nah. I'll do it alone." Cyril answered. His friend sighed. 'Please don't make it bloody.' pakiusap ng kaibigan. 'I beg you.'

Si Cyril naman ang napabuntong hininga. "I'll try."

'Why don't you try to use a gun again?'

Umiling si Cyril kahit hindi naman iyon nakikita ni Michael. "It's too noisy." Cyril tsked. "I don't feel like making a noise today. Oh and tell Brent to send me the location of that motherfucker Bianchi."

Michael sighed, defeated. 'Fine. Just be fast. Jade is waiting for you.' and Michael ended the call.

Mabilis siyang dumiretso sa sasakyan niya at inilagay sa back seat kaniyang katana. Matulin ang takbo niya ng biglang tumunog ang cellphone. Eksperto niya yung inilagay sa lagyanan ng phone sa kaniyang kotse at tinignan ang pinadala sa kaniya ni Brent.

'It's the location of his house. Just follow the line and stop at the red dot.'

Ng makita niya ang mapa ay agad siyang napangisi. He's near.

Mas pinabilis niya ang sasakyan at ng dumating siya sa pulang tuldok, mabilis niyang inihinto ang sasakyan.

Kinuha niya ang espada sa likuran at walang emosyong bumaba ng kotse niya.

Ng makababa, tinignan niya ng buo ang mansiyon sa kaniyang harapan. It's huge. Literally huge. Malaki talaga ang bahay nito at halatang mamahalin ang mga produktong ginamit upang buuin ito.

"Rich but fucking useless." Cyril whispered before walking near the front gate.

He sighed before putting all his strength at his right foot and kick the gate with full force, making it sprung open.

Kaagad na itinurok ni Cyril ang kaniyang katana sa pinakaunang bantay na kaniyang nakita. Mabilis niya ring hinugot yun at binalingan ang iba na balak sana siyang barilin pero hindi niya sila pinagbigyan.

Eksperto niyang iwinawasiwas ang espada sa kaniyang kamay na para bang isa lang iyong laruan. Ilang beses din siyang nagpapalit palit ng posisyon dahil sinisigurado niyang sa dibdib ng mga bantay tumuturok ang kaniyang katana. Hanggang sa hindi nagtagal at iisa na lang ang naiwan sa labing dalawang bantay doon.

Agad niyang itinutok ang espada sa huling bantay na buhay doon.

"Tell everyone that Black has come to send you all to fucking hell."

Nagmamadali namang tumango ang lalaki at tumakbo papasok sa kabahayan. Muli siyang naglakad papasok doon at agad niyang nakita ang mga kalaban na sumalubong sa kaniya.

A cold smirk formed at Cyril's lips. He tighten his gripped to his katana before finally moving like a fluid and expertly stabbing, cutting and piercing them into pieces and beheading each one of them.

It looks likes he can't make this not bloody. It's obviously already so bloody and yet he's not done. He's just starting and the real reason why he came to this house is still alive.

'Tsk. Doesn't matter. Bloody or not, I don't care at all.' Cyril thought.

Paunti ng paunti ang sumusugod sa kaniya at mabilis at maliksi niya naman itong sinalubong. He keeps on slicing and slashing his katana until he stab the last one alive on the chest.

Ng maubos ang kalaban niya, he thought that it's going to be enough. Pero hindi parin pala. He's still not satisfied at all.

Umakyat siya patungong pangalawang palapag habang pahigpit ng pahigpit ang kapit niya sa katana at patalim ng patalim ang tingin ng kaniyang mga mata.

Of course, it's not yet done. He's not satisfied because he wants Alessandro's blood. Only him and tonight, he will get it.

Tumigil ang paa niya sa nag iisang kwarto sa itaas. Malakas niya itong sinipa and when the door opened, he didn't find any soul alive. Lahat ng taong nandoon ay wala ng buhay. Even Alessandro was already pinned at the wall using a katanas and daggers. One katana at his stomach and one directly at his heart, four daggers at each of his hand and foot and again, one dagger at his forehead.

When he travelled his eyes around the room, he saw only one shadow of a man alive, standing and directly looking at him.

But Cyril stopped when he saw the figure and the eyes of the man...he can't be wrong.

It was exactly looks like Athena's father.
