Chapter Nineteen | | October 11th-2

Fighting left and right. Gun fires, metal weapons and sounds of agony are all they hear. Think too much and you won't survive the night is what everybody knows. It only lasted 40 minutes but it was enough to take away the breath of many. Kill or get killed. This night where a nice dinner was supposed to occur turned into a bloody festival that will haunt their dreams for the rest of their lives.

Alpha arrives at the battle scene on her motorcycle. She stops the vehicle and looks around. A man from the Silvers gang bolted in her direction, holding a gun. He fires multiple shots at the window shield of her motorbike. The glass exploded infuriating her. She warms up the engine before charging and rolling over the guy, smashing his face with her front wheel. She gets off the bike and takes out a sword. In the midst of chaos, she marches calmly making some eyes shift to her as she drags the sword single-handed. Any man or woman going up to her, she slices their heads without hesitating. Many Silver soldiers laid on the ground, headless.

A black car arrives on the site, bright flashlights, blinding Sniper's eyes. A tall muscular man comes out of it followed by a woman with long hair. "Sniper !" a loud growl comes out of that man's mouth. All eyes were on him, some were scared, some were happy, some were very confused too but Sniper's lip corners went up to his eyes. He shot the man he was fighting and opened up his arms welcoming the new individual. The lady with long hair ran over to Draco.

"Denzel !"

"Jessie..Are you alright ? Did she do anything to you ?" asked Denzel as he hugged her. She shook her head sideways and gave him an apologetic smile.

"What happened ?" Jessie asks.

"Draco, give me a gun." Orders Ace as he walks towards Denzel and Jessie.

"You didn't need to come. You shouldn't have-" protests Draco. He gets interrupted by JJ who tells him shamefaced that she called him. A knife is thrown from behind Draco. It passes directly by Ace's eye and penetrates an enemy's stomach. Ace and JJ look back and see a man on all fours, groaning in agony, clasping the knife that was still inside his abdomen.

"You should be more careful, Caleb." warns Skylar as she passes by them. "What are you waiting for ? Give the man his shit." She tells Denzel as she yanks out the weapon from the enemy's body. The man drops, curling up as the sounds of agony become booming. Denzel picks out a gun but hesitates before handing it to Ace.

And just like that, Ace was gone. Rox's gang members came onto him yet without much budge he shot them. He walked in a straight line keeping his eyes on his target, Sniper. Sky was nearby, fighting alongside Cash. Wave and Rayan were fighting together. Red and Blu were fighting together while Draco, CIX and JJ were fighting on their side.

"I knew you'd come." laughed Sniper. Without answering, Ace swung his fist. It hit the side of Sniper's cheek and he stumbled to the side.

"Have you gotten weaker Caleb ?" chuckled Sniper, wiping off the bit of blood from his mouth.

And Ace swung again this time making his enemy fall. He pulled out his glock and lowered to Sniper's level. "To think I trusted you..." He confessed. His voice was calm in contrast to the situation they were in as he placed his index on the trigger.

"You really made me bleed !" pointed out Sniper while rubbing his cheek.

"Goodbye-" Ace began to utter a word before Sniper kicked away his weapon with his leg. He fired his handgun and shot Ace in the leg. When he had fallen on the ground, Sniper towered over him holding the gun on his head.

"Don't ever make me bleed, Coleman. You know how much I hate seeing blood." Said Sniper. And he fired a shot once more. In that same second, Ace had moved his enemy's hand away and made him shoot in the air. He threw up his knee into Sniper's stomach and got up. He then limped his way towards where his weapon had fallen and picked it up.

"You...can't kill me..." boasted Sniper as he marched forward, putting an arm on his aching stomach.

"And why's that ?" scoffed Ace, looking slightly behind him.

"Do you want your baby to die ?" asked Sniper. The grin on Ace's face dropped while his body stood rigid. He unhandled his gun and both of his hands were hanging by his side.

"Ace behind you !" shouted Sky as she ran towards them.

Sniper threw his head back, snickering. "You should never turn your back on your friend." He ordered in a cynical tone. Sniper brought down Ace with a shot in the back of the head. Silver Gang's first leader fell on the side of his face. Sniper advanced towards the body he had just shot and lifted it up by its collar.

"Ace is dead ! Your leader died by my hands !" snarled Sniper. "Now both the North and South sides of Naire will be mine !" he added. He proceeded to shake the collar, looking at him roguishly. "You're not saying much now, are ya Caleb ? I'm stronger. I've always been." He murmured in Ace's ear. A short piercing sound flew by Sniper's ears. He began to feel a stinging sensation on his left shoulder. Looking downwards, he caught sight of a red liquid leaking out of him. A knife had penetrated his shoulder. Looking back up, he saw Sky marching furiously towards him.

"How can you do this to me, Skylar ?" He said as he pulled out the knife. "Back in the day, you would've never betrayed me..." he continued.

"I should've killed you when I had the chance." replied Sky. She fired five shots on his body. One in his forehead. One in between the eyes. One in his throat. Another in the injured shoulder and the fifth one in his heart.
