Run or Fight?

"Go away dammit!!" I cursed in loud voice towards the person running towards me with a large monster behind him.

"PLEASE SAVE ME!!" the fatty running in front of the monster exclaimed with tears in his eyes.

"Save my ass! get away from here shoo, shoo" I waved my hand as if shaking off a dog following me. The fatty man disregarding my clear attempt to belittle him, replied with never seen before shamelessness,

"Brother please save me, I will give you millions of dollars, but just save me from this monster!! Please!!" the fatty repeated the same offer again and again while I was running in opposite direction and glanced towards the monster following the fatty, it looked just like a bigger version of fatty who is running behind me, the monster is very fat without a doubt due to which he is slow hence giving its prey a slight advantage towards speed, suddenly a large pink whip smashed they floor,

"Boom--"

The floor got decimated in an instant as if a large boulder weighing a thousand-ton smashed it, the pink whip then got back inside the mouth of the fat monster that resembled mouse a bit,

'Shit! It's a Tongueweigher Hamster, a low-level monster'

I recalled its mention in the novel once that it never leaves its prey until he kills it, it has large tongue that erupts with a force of literal thousand tons, with large venom claws.

Looking towards while running I asked fatty a question, 

"How the hell did that monster started chasing you!?"

The fatty looked towards me with an embarrassed look and answered 

"…actually, it's my pet hamster so…"

--Creeeeeek! --

Just as he spoke the mouse screeched in a high pitch voice that made me and fatty fall down on our knees while putting our hands forcefully to cover our bleeding ears

"you idiot who are you a fucking mommy hamster!" I said in irritated voice

"H-he was nice and good b-but suddenly it got large and suddenly attacked me with his tongue…"

The fatty responded while standing up and continuing the run. 

Now I understand why this monster is pursuing fatty and now me too.

Collecting my thoughts I got two ideas, first is to overrun fatty and somehow make him slip so that the tongueweigher finish him, this route is easy and another is to-

"B-brother huff…huff... I am feeling huff…huff tired" seeing his sweaty face I understood it.

"Look fatty I have an idea but it is risky, wanna do?"

"As long as I can live, I will do anything!"

"Good now answer me. Do you trust me?"

Fatty looked at me for a few seconds maybe thinking about his answer or choice of answer

"Brother the thing is-"

I cut him short and asked

"Fatty yes, or no?" I said firmly to him while maintaining my look towards the front as the dead end of the floor is nearby

Fatty moved his lips while trying to say something, but I spoke loudly

"FATTY! YES OR NO!"

"NO!!" Fatty exclaimed 

"Sorry brother…."

Fatty said in a low voice while running.

I looked towards his guilty look, and spoke

"Good Fatty now run fast and do what I tell you"

With clear disbelief on his face, fatty looked at me but I gave him no mind and became faster with all the strength left in my legs due to running just after a difficult climb.

After crossing some room, a set of huge glass windows marking the end of the floor became clear to us,

"Fatty slow down your speed and just maintain a small distance between you and that monster, not let it catch up to me, in short become a decoy and wait for signal" saying my piece I jolted myself and became more faster while leaving fatty in shambles with doubt and fear.

Clearly not convinced by my words he instead tried to follow me with greater speed and looked closely towards me.

Anyone can think that I am trying to bait fatty and run away from the situation using my first idea, well its wrong, got that well honestly, I wanted but I can't, why you ask? Because now I am the second target in Tongueweighers list, so he will hunt me after killing fatty first and another minor reason why I want to save both fatty and my life together is because the answer fatty gave me holds probability of two things, firstly fatty is too much naïve or a sheltered kiddo that's why he can answer the question directly without any using any emotional card or mind tricks or secondly he is wicked, and will backstab just after I somehow save both of us, while I am inclining towards the first one because of my gut feeling but one can never be more careful so I have to take some cautions

Moving closer to the windows I discovered that the work tables having computers are not positioned correctly maybe because of sudden unrest and later the moving of too much crowed, can't guess much. I reached a table, situated just 5 feet before the glass panels and started finding wires, yes wires indeed because that monster has poor eyesight as I remember correctly from the novel. I searched every nook and crack and after a bit more than 2 min I found the electric source wire which was very thick, looking towards the wire I laminated 

"If only electricity was not down"

But putting my mind on the current situation I teared the wire from the location by pulling it strongly while destroying aesthetic and fancy looking wire holders, like that I continued my work

Now fatty came to my view clearly disregarding my previous order and running as if his life depended on it, which is true moving, the tongueweigher on the other hand looked as it can still play the game for a whole day.

"This monster really does have great stamina, disregarding his body weight." I muttered with a bitter tone.

By seeing me near the workbench just before the dead end fatty teared up with joy and shouted,

"Brother, I know you will save me. I knew this deep in my heart-"

But I shouted 

"Shut up fatty! And listen to me."

Fatty without questioning shut his mouth and nodded towards me, getting his approval I spoke in loud enough voice that can reach fatty clearly,

"When I signal you, you must turn left, remember it's our first and last shot if you mess up, we-no you will surely die, are you clear?"

Fatty without wasting a single moment whipped his head up and down like a spring is attached to it.

"Good now run fast, god dammit." Fatty sped up with every ounce of his fat or whatever muscle or organ left inside that chubby body of his, when he was just 3 meters away from me, I said

"NOW FATTY!" as if the god has commanded himself, fatty without an ounce of doubt turned a sharp left while skidding and disorienting a bit in the process.

The monster did the same or precisely to do that but his body betrayed his mind and he skidded with his huge body disorienting, not wasting a single second I stretched the wire which I placed on the floor to make a tug trap, suddenly a long black appeared with high tensile strength just an inch away from tongueweighers hands or legs or whatever that monster has.

But the monster paid no mind as if he not saw that wire or maybe the wire looked harmless to him, but as soon as the wire and the monster's legs connected, the monster's body loomed 45 degree downwards with clear surprise on his face, while on the other side where I was holding the wire with both hurt like hell while my body almost got pulled towards the monster due to the wire getting wrap around the monster's front two legs, without waiting for any ceremony I tossed the wire and rolled towards opposite direction while having a small white wire in my hands which was transparent.

-THUDDD- 

The monster skid down towards the glass panels, while the glass used in the building is of superior quality and cannot be broken easily but we have a living monster weighing more than a ton, which can make the glass destroy and as I predicted like a paper sheet exposed to a high speed bullet the glass windows gave away and the monster got dropped off but at the last moment the monster made a last ditch and clutched the floor with his claws while trying to climb up, 

With a horrified face I muttered 

"Shit this monster has better reaction time contrary to the data given in the novel. I have to do something."

I searched and found the work desks were still on the floor while its wires are struck with the feet of the monster, I beckoned fatty and shouted 

"Fatty push them desk fast, now!!" 

Fatty looked confused at first but noticing my sudden haste followed my order and pushed, although the weight of these work desk is more than common desk, I tried to make them fall, as if understanding my intention, the monster wiggled harder while making strange movements to balance his body and climb up 

Seeing this I shouted again towards fatty which is having problem while pushing the desk,

"Fatty do it faster we have only 10-no only 5 sec at most!!"

As if alarm rang, fatty doubled his efforts to push the desk as far as possible while inclining his whole body to push.

The monster having less intelligence ignored the ants in front of him and continued to climb, soon his efforts made wonders and somehow he climbed back again and darted his eyes towards fatty who looked extremely pale due to the monsters sudden success, I knew if the monster attacked fatty now we both will die because I will not be able to push both the desk at the same in front of this looming disaster hence I picked everything on the desk one by one started throwing it towards the tongueweigher to distract him,

"Fatty, you ass! PUSH FAST!!"

Fatty got his bearing back and with a newfound strength continued his actions while putting a little trust on me, maybe who knows?

The tongueweigher looked towards the skinny ant which is throwing rubbish towards and became clearly agitated, not wasting anytime he moved towards the skinny ant to kill it first and then slowly kill the fat ant later while playing with it.

This move of mine granted Fatty a small opening to work on and he pushed with a lot of zeal.

The monster took his sweet time to look at me as if I am a starter for his upcoming palate and moved towards me while I continued abusing the desk essentials

-Grrrrrr- 

Making metal grinding sounds using his teeth the Tongueweigher lunged towards me with unbelievable force.

As if the whole moment turned silent, the face of the monster was just a feet away from me and his claws ready to rip apart my neck in a clear and concise manner something took the monster by surprise and his eyes which are like a tennis ball instantly become wide open and his iris diluted with clear tension, suddenly the freeze up frame got returned to the normality and with a huge force of a catapult throwing a stone initiated where the catapult is our sweet gravity acting on the work bench and the stone, of course the tongueweigher

-Shoooooo-

The wire struck on the monster's legs pull him towards in a milli second not giving him a chance to retort to do anything for his protection.

'Fatty had done his work correctly now it my time.' As if springs are attached to my feet, I jumped a little and pushed the almost leaning desk which is the second connected desk that I used to make the tug trap, the monster clearly became more agitated and again clutched the floor with his claws, but this time

"You will be going to hell this time little chubby!" with clear determination I gave the last push to the desk and saw it fall taking the overweight chubby monster with it from the height of 44th floor.

"I guess it will die from the impact." I thought while looking down towards the falling tongueweigher.

"We did it bro! Yes, we did it! YAY WE ARE ALIVE!! AHAHAHA" fatty started cheering like a cheer girl you see in basketball matches but seeing that movement of his made me puke,

'I have to limit my imagination for this fatty.' I thought.

"Shut up Fatty! And stop that dance of yours."

"Yes Brother!" like an obedient puppy he started whipping his imaginary tail towards as if waiting for me to say something. 

"Hmm...Ok Let's introduce ourselves."

"Yes Brother, pleasure to meet you, my name is Parry Laurence but you can call me Pat" fatty or now Pat, introduced himself to me with lot of excitement in his voice. But seeing his attitude and his name a nerve bulged on my face.

'Seriously, for gods are you a real pig, Ahhhh what the hell' I thought but suddenly a realization took me 

"Wait are THE PARY LAURENCE, THE CO-OWNER OF PHOENIX RISE TECH"

Parry with a goofy smile on his face made a serious face and spoke in a mature voice,

"I thought you will never guess, friend." And took out his hand for a handshake which looked quite comical with his body look and his way of talking while we were fighting the monster.
