A VILLAIN AS A HERO

The clock striking 2:00 a.m spectates that Heartless is sitting over his bed since a few last instants and taking multiple medications while observing the prescription as per mentioned in the receipt placed aside on a table. Afterwards, he drowns down into his soft pillow with a deep sigh, relaxing himself and letting slip all the apprehensions from his mind. Out of a sudden, he proceeds with bringing up a bright involuntary smile over his face trying to suppress within his lips then closes his eyes. Promptly,the silence of the room breaks and he comes to hear the ring of a phone call which leads him to take a deep exasperated breath then he consequently receives the call.

He readily recognizes the familiar voice and finds out the babbling of the lady on the phone she commenced, as soon as he receives the call, "Quick, Heartless! J. Black has known about the existence of Robin. He has immediately ordered Roger to kill her. Heartless, do something. Save my daughter. please! I request you! Save her! Do anything possible!"

Heartless hurriedly replies with a question, he becomes a bit worried when he hears the depressed voice of the lady "What?... Where is Roger?"

She retorts with a brief explanation within a single breath, "Roger kidnapped Robin when I asked him to keep her in the old school building which was once entirely put on fire by J. Black."

His facial expression transits into a slight anger, raising his eyebrows in disbelief, "But why did you yourself ask him to kidnap her?"

She readily replies, "Because you refused to accomplish a task for me Well! I will elucidate you the comprehensive reason later. Just go and save her first."

Heartless rises up immediately intending constructively to get prepared while asserting her in his damn cold accent to disclose the detailed reality for the satisfaction of his soul, "Tell me now! Or I will not go."

Lady inhales a deep frustrated breath, exhibiting her lack of ability to speak a word against his dreadful stubbornness then proceeds with a burst of piercing announcement "Ah! I ordered Roger, who works for J.Black, to kidnap Robin and to keep her safe at that building which I considered the most secure temporary place for her without spilling this news into his boss's ears. This entire plan was hatched for the reason that J. Black visited the hospital twice to thrice a week to get to know Robert's condition nowadays and there, he could have found her, which I never wanted. But he came to know that Robert has a daughter and he also knew that Roger had already kidnapped Robin so he felt like being served with everything half done for him. As a consequence, He has promptly ordered Roger to end her game and remove another barrier which is blocking his way to destination. Now, Have you got what you wanted to know? Just raise your strength and please save her. You are the only one who possesses such fortitude and lionheart personality …"

Heartless interrupts her while lacing up his shoes, "Okay! Okay! Stop babbling! I will get it done! No doubt, it is an effortless game for me!"

He has got ready and has prepared his pistol along with delinquent accessories stuffed into a faded blonde bag, silently, while he was busy in the conversation on the phone. As soon as he ends the call, he takes his position in the car and drives with a damn swift speed.

He pushes the brakes of his car at a certain distance from his destined building, camouflaged behind the bushes to stay concealed by the eyes of culprits and makes his way into the building from the backside calmly without churning out crash and clatter. He swarms up the wall of the building, setting up his foot over the beams and staves. One of the frail wooden planks, on which he steps while mounting, suddenly breaks leading him to descend down a few steps and hence his foot gets injured. With his bloodshot eyes, he seems to be enduring pain somewhere within his abdominal cavity. He soon reaches the uppermost floor and enters one of the deadly dark rooms through the window.

The room possesses no illumination and its door is set free with no lock. He wears gloves then proceeds with bringing out a tissue and spraying a lethal poison on it. He catches the sight of a man loitering around in the corridor close to that room. Heartless generates an initiative tinkling sound to catch his attention and lead him to make his way into the room. As fast as the man throws himself into the room, Heartless straight away clutches him firmly, engulfs his mouth as well as his nose within the poisoned tissue, and binds his hands behind his back progressing into the departure of his soul with no induction of sound except his brief exclaiming sigh. Consequently, Heartless throws him at the corner of the tough, indestructible, bold wooden bed and headways to depart out of the room and examines other rooms meticulously to explore the presence of the partially dead girl, Robin.

His way of inspection demonstrates as either he is aware of the building map or familiar with the passages and corridors. Many of the rooms are found to be loaded with broken furniture, others are empty. Walls are mostly turned black evidencing the stories of fire and burning from the past. He commences shooting each of the men who gets caught by the sight of his valiant eyes. As he advances closer towards the ending corner of the floor, the sounds of striking along with a young manly roar just touches his ears and grasps his attention. Without wasting a single moment, he briskly turns and catches the sight of Roger striking the iron rod with all the strength of his arms at Robin's weak back,through a thin line of opened door. He brings out the poisoned tissue once again and enters the room with the intention to snatch his prey. Roger, being unable to perceive his presence as his face is directed towards the window opposite the door, pursues beating her.

As Heartless proceeds closer to him, he advances the tissue closer to his breath and commences to get the control over his hands but instantaneously fails as soon as Roger realizes a third person's existence in the room and promptly reacts by treading his foot and blowing his elbow into his stomach. His face turns pale and breath chokes for a while as he comes to know that the opponent is Heartless. Consequently, he tries to hit him with the iron rod but he loses its grip letting the rod dance in the air when Heartless hits his hands with great brawn. The tissue is thrown aside and Heartless violently reacts to his physical wrestling and abuse. Fallen on the ground, Roger does his best to get the iron rod but Robin kicks it away by her foot with all the strength she possesses but the rod does not get farther following the strength she conveyed.

Roger turns aside when his knees get hit by Heartless and proceeds with a chance to grab the rod conveniently. He stands up immediately and hits Heartless courageously with the iron rod with his hands shivering and suppressing his terror within his eyes. Heartless peers consistently into his eyes standing unaffected and unmoved. He passes an angry look with his damn valiant eyes, brings out his gun, and shoots a number of bullets into his body, unperturbed by his destructive yells. Afterwards, he turns to Robin, unties her hands, and pulls her up while saying "hurry up! Run!" Her faint health becomes an obstruction for her to head up but gathering all her fortitude and strength she tries to stand up with the kind service of Heartless. Still holding one another's hands, they swiftly move back to the first room where Heartless unzips his jacket.

A bold rope is revealed whirled over his body as soon as he unzips his jacket. He firmly ties one end of the rope to the pillar while the other end is still tied to his body. A man with a pointed pistol approaches them but he promptly transits into a scaredy-cat with affrighted expressions when he perceives Heartless' face and readily drops the gun. Tiger ends his game by shooting a single bullet into his chest. Two other men arrive with the same intention to shoot him but they also lose their grip over their guns after catching the sight of his daring face.

Heartless passes a super valiant smile and shoots both of them. Afterwards, he assists Robin to stand up and asks her to hold him tightly then consequently he leaps out of the window. He holds the rope with one hand and instantaneously descends down while shooting all the men who get arrested by his daredevil eyes with the gun held in his other hand.

As he sets his feet on the ground, he cuts the rope with a single gunshot and throws the bombs like sprinkling toy balls everywhere and inside the building through the windows. He doesn't let Robin leave her hand. Defending her as her shield, he assists her on their way to the car.One after the other, all of the bombs blasts into mass explosions behind them. Still providing his services, he firmly helps Robin to sit in the car then he turns the car with the same steady speed. Before heading his way to his destined location, he first brings the car to the front gate of the building and throws further bombs inside. The dreadful scenario fabricated with instantaneous explosive sounds and gunshots assembling with death-dealing human sighs leads Robin to burst into an ear-splitting scream managing her feeble solidity while entirely engulfing her head within her arms,

"Stop this all! Stop it please!"

Heartless, while turning his car around with his eyes settled over the fire-sprinkling building and passing a wrathful, valiant smile, states with an ironically joyous accent "The building is set on fire once again!"

Consequently, the car runs away with a super swift speed.

After passing a few unsaid minutes while covering a quite dark uncertain distance, he breaks the silence with a question while faking a formal smile with his head aligned straight "So, young lady, Where would you like to visit right now?"

Progressing with no response from the opponent leads him to have a curious glance at her face and he consequently finds the reaction, as per his expectation, that out of unconsciousness, she has slept once again. He transits back into natural solemn expressions. After the passage of a few more silent minutes his phone gives a whistling sound.

He receives the call and readily says "Your work is done!"

Lady, on the other side of the phone, retorts with an ironical but mirthful smile, "I knew that! Because to catch the word "No" in your voice is impossible and your genuine style to destroy everything manifests to everyone that the game has been played by you! After All, nobody is as lion-hearted as you are, possessing such an unveiled courage is not a kid's riddle. Well! Where are you right now? Where is Robin?"

Exhibiting a valiant smile, he retorts, "She is asleep. I guess she will die soon, out of weakness!"

Lady responds in a worried voice, "Oh! Don't say that! I wish the best for her! She is your responsibility for a while. I am troubled about hot-headed J. Black and trying my best to douse the fire combusting into flames within his heart. He has killed her father. He is not going to leave her and now… he is against you too!"

Heartless ignores recklessly, "I have been against him since the day I know him!"

He seems to have turned indignant when he perceives the news about the committed murder of Mr. Robert. After the passage of a few silent seconds when he is drowned into deep convictions, he recommences, "Well! Turn his mind towards the rapacity of her property! If you are really interested in saving your daughter's life then I can endeavor to develop other ways of solving the mystery!"

Lady, out of amazement, exclaims astonishingly, "Oh really! Do you really have an idea of saving someone's life!?"

Heartless still reveals no significance to her astounded question, "Ask him! Whether he wants to get the diamonds or just wants to play with a poor useless girl's life?"

She gets choked suddenly, as soon as she perceives his stunning words, then makes efforts at her best to speak in a low voice, "How!... How did you know about the diamonds?"

He gives no significant response other than just passing an ironical smile.

She rejoins her question, "Did Robin tell you?"

"I think you have lost your memory. Robin herself does not know about the diamonds. Well, if you want to save her, I will get it done for you." He retorts calmly.

"What will you do?" she replies with a question once again.

"I will give him all her property and the diamonds and he will leave your daughter! Simple! In fact, this is all he actually wants!" He calmly explains a brief idea.

"How will you do so?" Another question just slips from her lips.

"It's up to me!" He responds coldly.

Lacking the ability to respond to him readily, the lady seems to be confused and tangled within the threads of multiple amazement at a time.

He admits explaining to her when finds her drowned in contemplation. "Listen! Why are J. Black's plans working so conveniently? Bomb in Robert's car, his heart attack, Robin's kidnapping and (he commences to mentally detect the focal spot with great intensity) … I feel that someone is also involved in this case whom you don't know. I am doubtful about (he suddenly stops himself from letting slip the name of the person under his consideration and lets a minute pass with silence) …well! Leave! But now Robin is with me. The game will be played the way I wish to play."

"Whom are you talking about? Heartless! I am also afraid of your anger." Lady eagerly asks him to complete his sentence.

Heartless says "I am heartless indeed, but not mad!"

"Robin is innocent and doesn't know anything, so please keep her safe." She speaks in a low voice.

"I am taking her to the restaurant, by the way. I will try not to hurt her."

"I don't think that any restaurant might be open at 4:00 am." She curiously marks a distinction of his idea and the possible reality.

"I am not supposed to tell you anything about myself. I have committed that she will be returned okay." he retorts calmly.

"Okay fine! How much time will it take to complete this mission?" She asks.

"Perhaps, one week!" He replies.

"I am going to discuss this plan with J. Black. Take care of her! Goodbye." She ends up on the phone call.
