When The Hunter Turns into the Prey 4

It's already been a many minutes since the three started their hunt but none of the enemy has yet appear and because the post apocalypse city was large, it takes time to look for them.

But there is one thing they are certain with, the enemy is also looking for them.

Gear who went into the tunnel was at ease, he is even whistling and wasn't walking in haste. He is taking his time reminiscing the surrounding, though, everything was in ruins. It was a half tunnel that's why it's bright as clear here.

He just came from a mission but he doesn't felt fatigue nor drowsiness, all is well.

"Are you done hiding? My back is open wide!" he stated even if no one is around. Before he even steeped in this tunnel, he know that someone is been eyeing to him and has been following him. With his many years of existence in the military, he is used on such as things and to be factual, he is an assassin type, and this was his ilk.

The person who has been following him was a bit startled, he didn't make any sounds yet this man is able to detect him.

But it's no use hiding now, he is already been seen through.

An unknown man came out from the tall bushes. His face wasn't visible because he was wearing a dark wrinkled cloak and his face was covered with black cloth. He wasn't ordinary.

If it was Caelan who saw this man odd appearance he would ask, 'are you guys shooting some movie?' however that doesn't goes the same for Gear. He respect all entity and that's what's beautiful about him. He isn't a judge mental.

"I know you won't answer me if I ask who are you and what are you doing here" started Gear as he looked at the unknown man in front of him.

"So, let me ask you, where is your other comrades?" asked Gear not forgetting about the wager instead of dealing with this unknown man.

"Before that, you should defeat me first" said the man back

"That's what I'm expecting" Gear replied as he smile, but it wasn't his usual friendly smile. It was the other way around.

"You guys did really make a fuss at the military, are you terrorist?" asked Gear without flinching from the terror that is coming from this person. He was just steady and has the nerve to ask the questions even if his life was on the line.

"You shouldn't meddle with that, kid" replied the man as he bring out a two pair of sharp daggers.

"Daggers? Oh I see, are you some sort of assassin too?" Gear asked completely unaffected. Since he was an assassin type, he was familiar with others who share the same as him. Assassins often prefer blades, daggers, katana, rather than guns and riffles, it's because, blades doesn't make too much sound so the task is easily done.

"So what if I am?" arrogantly asked the man in dispute

Gear chuckled and replied-

"It's because I am too" he hushed then, Gear vanished into the thin air making the man to be flabbergasted in shock.

How did he do that? Is he even human?

Out of nowhere the man was pressed onto the ground without a single clue.

"I see, your concentration isn't good enough" Gear said as he continued to press the man in a great strength.

"You bastard!" cursed the man however no matter what way he resists, Gear is unmovable like just a mountain.

"Nah ah. So now that we are face to face, should you tell me now the questions I've been asking?" asked Gear

"Over my dead body" spat the man

In a second, Gear smashed the man's head on the ground without hesitation. Blood spurted from the man's nose.

"I'm giving you the chance to speak before I remove that mask of yours and grind your head into ashes" Gear added, but no matter how threatening it was. There is no urge of malevolence coming from him. It's as if he has the ability to conceal it.

"As I said i-" before the man could finish his sentence his head has smashed on the ground but it was more powerful this time. It's enough to make his vision goes wobbly.

"Another?" Gear asked nonchalantly

"F*ck you" the man cursed as he spat a cupful of blood.

"Nah, I prefer women" Gear chuckled

"Go to hell" added the man in anger. This is very unexpected, he was on the floor already without even giving a fight. Thus, he is about to die in this psycho's hand!

"See you later then" without a second thought he smashed the man's head on the floor for the third time and the pain? It's agonizing! It's enough to make someone cry and ask for forgiveness.

The man was already unconscious.

Gear stand as he move the body facing upwards. He is sure this man is still alive and was breathing. He was just unconscious.

Gear removed the black cloth that was covering the unknown man's face, as he removed it, as expected, blood is all over the man's face so he can't clearly see his real countenance. He just put back the black cloth and tied the man in the most savage way.

After tying him too tight that he will choke, he even hang him up side down on the high ceiling, so if he resist and struggle, he will fell and his head would be sliced by his own dagger that Gear purposely located on the ground facing up wards, just on the very same direction as the man's hanged body.

With satisfaction, Gear moved on into the next target.
