Chapter 357 - Play stupid games, win stupid prizes. (1/2)
The lady trying her best to make us drop all our weapons tried her best to hide her surprise when I informed everyone that her 'hostage' was in fact, actually her daughter. Her hair was frazzled and her clothes were ragged and dirty, the same as what her daughter was wearing.
”I'M NOT JOKING! I'LL BLOW HER BRAINS OUT!” she bellowed.
Her 'hostage' couldn't cry out because the lady was covering her mouth. We could only see up to her eyes but it was also partially covered by her bangs.
”I DID TELL YOU TO DO IT, RIGHT? DON'T LET US STOP YOU! WAIT! LET ME COME DOWN FIRST SO I COULD SEE IT MORE CLEARLY!” I shouted so she could hear me. There was still a fair distance between my group and the two so I had to shout.
”DON'T F.U.C.K.I.N.G MOVE! I'LL F.U.C.K.I.N.G DO IT!” the lady c.o.c.ked the hammer of her revolver which was a Model 19.
I didn't mind her and I whispered to Kaley, ”Stay here with Tatiana and look around if there are people hiding from the houses.”
I made my way down and she already lost face when she still didn't pull the trigger. I even started to doubt if it had bullets in it.
”Wow, thank you for waiting for me. How considerate. I know you have other people watching, I saw them from above.” I lied to fish for a reaction.
She instinctively looked at her left while her 'hostage' did the same.
”Idiot.” I thought to myself.
She realized what she had done and just as she was about to run back to her people, I shot a few inches away from where she was about to head to. The pavement let out a few bits of debris towards them and they stopped.
”Umm, I'm not gonna do that if I were you. If you didn't realize already, the two of you are my hostages now.” I said calmly.
The two's faces paled in horror and they didn't move a muscle.
”Okay, to the f.u.c.ktards who are hiding behind that house, come out now or I'll place a bullet in each of their legs. I'll watch them scream while I wait for them to bleed out, understand?” I shouted loud enough towards the area where the two were about to head to earlier.
Silence.
No one was coming out but the two were still glancing in the same direction.
”Oh, you think I'm not serious eh? You two, raise your hands where I could see them. Make any sudden moves and you'll regret it, okay?” I said then I raised my rifle at the lady. My group did the same though Jared and Lawrence were looking at the other directions where they might be people hiding.
The two were breathing heavily and the daughter slowly raised her hands.
”Good. Mrs. Hostage Taker, kindly lower that gun on the ground.” I ordered.
She didn't.
”You're not gonna shoot me.” she muttered while still holding her gun up.
However, I'm not here to play games.
I aimed for the lady's hand and I squeezed the trigger.
I f.u.c.k.i.n.g love this new gun.
It hit where I aimed at and her gun fell to the ground along with two of her fingers. Her hands were bloody and she lost her balance. She was still holding her daughter so her daughter was pulled down with her while she was shrieking in pain. Her daughter was about to reach for the gun but a shot came from the barangay hall.
I bet it was Kaley and the revolver slid a few feet away from the two. The girl backed away but then her mother shrieked once more.
”AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!” the lady screamed in pain after, clutching her hands.
”MOM~!!!” the girl shouted.
”MARICEL!!!” we heard a loud voice.
”NOOOO~!!!” another one followed.
”COME OUT OR I'LL F.U.C.K.I.N.G SHOOT THEM BOTH!!! I JUST AIMED FOR HER HAND AND THE NEXT TIME WILL BE THEIR HEADS!!! DON'T F.U.C.K.I.N.G TEST ME!!!” I bellowed.
”F.U.C.K YOU!!!”
”ARSEN DON'T!!!”
”STOP!!! DON'T SHOOT!!!”
All of a sudden, eight people came out and started firing at us. My group went for cover but then Mikhail provided suppressive fire.
Mikhail's unsuppressed and automatic AK-47 wreaked havoc as he fired at the opposing team.
Most of my group used that chance to try and shoot back at most of them as I ran behind the HUMVEE in front of us. Matthew was crouched near the door but I revealed a portion of myself, BCM raised.
A couple was hit by Mikhail's gun but a few of them survived and had their heads ducked low and I used that opportunity to kill the nearest one in front of me.
The guy was holding a shotgun but he was already on my sights.
I pulled the trigger and hit center mass twice.
A hole appeared near his lung and near his heart then I fired another shot towards his head. His head blew back and just as I was about to aim for the woman next to him carrying a Glock 17, a large hole replaced half of her face. All I heard before that happening was Matthew's suppressed Remington 870 firing a shot, one after the other.
The girl earlier was lying prone clutching her head but her mother was about halfway in reaching her revolver.
I fired a quick shot to her head but several bullets entered her torso and neck before she fell down bleeding.
Blood spurted out from the bodies of the other hostiles but some of them still managed to let a few rounds loose. They weren't aiming at any of us properly and they just fired it as long as they could.
