164 Rays Predicament 2 (1/2)
All of a sudden, a notification sound rang from Ray's watch, when he looked at the person, it was Moby who had been trying to contact him all day.
”It seems like you really are important to him! You really are a great find and would make a great hostage if it comes to it! I don't know why the boss is so dead set on inviting this Moby Kane into the gang, and at 3rd seat from the start. They must see some sort of potential in him that not even I see. I would be lying if I said that I am not jealous. But, it's not my place to decide,” The red-haired boy said with a playful laugh.
Then suddenly, the cyan haired student who was lying down on the top bunk with a bored look in his eyes, staring at the white ceiling, jumped up in surprise, his once bored, bland eyes growing wider as a smirk suddenly appeared on his face, followed up by a maniacal chuckle.
”Jason, I have big news…” The cyan haired student said, now sitting cross-legged on the bed.
”What is it Nags? Do you have any important information?” Jason replied with a skeptical look in his eyes.
”He rejected the invitation… We are now authorized to go into plan B…” Nags said with a creepy smile on his face.
”WHATT! He rejected 3rd seat!? This is outrageous! Truly fucking outrageous! Our great gang has never suffered such humiliation! How dare he!? Rejecting such an honour!” Jason roared, unable to believe his ears.
”Calm down Jason… This only means that we can now force him to join along with teaching him a lesson right? It's not so bad after all… It's been a while since I actually had someone worthy to fight against…” Nags said, his smile growing even wider than before.
”I'll tear him limb from limb mark my words! I can't let you have all the fun!” Jason immediately retorted, smashing his own fists against each other in anger.
Ray listened to the two boys' conversation with a scared yet worried look in his eyes, sweat running down his face as he knew exactly what they were talking about…
In his heart, he knew that this time would come but he wished that it would have come much later than sooner…
”Hey! Kid! Did you hear that? Your friend also fucked up just like you! Now we also have to teach him a lesson and show him who he is messing with! You can finally make yourself more useful to us! Who knows, maybe if you do well you might get promoted from slave to member!” Jayson said with an eerie yet bright smile, putting his hands on Ray's shoulder, making him shudder as goosebumps ravaged throughout his entire body.
”Plan A, which was just to ask him to join failed miserably. So, we are switching over to plan B, teaching him a lesson and forcing him into submission. Now, listen carefully and don't make me repeat myself…” Jayson said, his bright smile turning more disturbing the more he talked…
”So, you got all of that kid? Failure is not an option!” Jayson said, finishing his explanation to Ray.
”N-no! I refuse! I won't do it! Do whatever you want to me but leave my friends out of it!” Ray said, starting out nervous but ending with clear resolve.
”Wait what? Sorry I didn't hear what you said… WOULD YOU LIKE TO REPEAT THAT ONE MORE TIME!?” Jayson said, his smile turning into an ugly, demonic frown, punching Ray in the stomach so hard, knocking the wind out of him before holding him up with one hand, his hands tightly around his throat.
