chapter 22

Did he just say shoot? What did Lincolin do to deserve death?

Is he really normal? Did blood really matter to him? And if yes why his brother and why me?  Was he ready to see his brother die? To be frank, I've never dragged a dead rat out of our ghetto house leave alone killing one. Will I be able to kill a HUMAN?

By now my body was stiff, not even a single step could help the situation. I had to find my way out of the deadly situation but how? I threw an eye at Clane who was by now smiling then at Lincolin. I pitied Lincolin. His state was more like mine.

I recalled once telling him how I cherished him and my heart increased its pace. Will I be able to forgive myself if I do kill him? I felt like shooting Clane instead but the love I had for him couldn't allow.

You are an idiot girl! How can you say you love him yet he treats you like a piece of  broken glass? You love him yet he wants you to commit murder? How much blood had he shed if this is the first you are seeing?  My subconscious reminded me but I shushed her. It wasn't the right time for that. She could have reminded earlier.

    " Hatari! What's the time?" Clane's voice brought me back.

One of the men who I gaze was Hatari took out a small flashlight  from his pocket, switched it on and in count of three he spoke.

    " 7:55 Pm sir!"

     " Good! We aren't late. We are remaining with only five minutes boys", Clane said his eyes travelling from one man to the other.

The moon was already shining by now. All the figures were clearly visible to everyone. I recalled the stranger saying something about 8pm and I  relate it to what was about to happen.

   " The floor is clear for questions now. The remaining minutes are to be consumed in a memorable way. Dear darling, these minutes are all yours since my brother here is...." He finished his sentence in an evil laughter while facing my direction.

What should I ask this idio? I thought to myself.

Deciding what to ask was a hard thing. I admit I had many questions running through my mind but the few minutes couldn't allow. I wanted to know what he meant by that time and why he chose it, I wanted a detailed explanation on what Lincolin did to deserve death. I wanted him to tell me whether that was part of the revenge or something else.

    " What did Lincolin do deserve death", My buggy mouth spoke without discussing with the rest of the body parts.

Clane let out a devilish laughter and moved towards Lincolin.  I could feel hate and regrets in the laughter. What was he regretting of anyway? Wasn't it what he cherished? Making others suffer and dance to his evil tunes? He held him by the collar before letting go off it which resulted into Lincolin's fall before replying.

   " You see your baby doll here," he let out a sigh before proceeding, " he forced trees to sway to his own wind leaving me with no choice but finish him off.
Wait, before revealing the main and painful part, do you see that shameless mouth of his", he stopped and I nodded,  " was the reason behind his missing tongue".

So he is the reason behind all this? My legs support my body.

  " Let me reveal the rest now. Do you see that closet..." Hatari cut him short before he could reveal the rest.

    " 1 minute to go sir!"

   " What the fuck! Was the five minutes this short? Anyway I think I talked too much. I can now let the business take its turn", Clane said stretching his hand to give the finger to me.

My hands shook as I stretched them to receive it. It was like an action movie to me. Clane and the two men moved far from us leaving the two of us giving each  a last look of life.

   " Remember Shannon, in a count of three, you'll have to fire. And before I forget, a chicken's ass is always covered but when the wind blows, it's exposed for the public to see".  He ended his say and went silent.

Are they not the same words from the stranger? Something is fishy. My subconscious went again but I shushed her as before.

I stared into Lincolin's eyes for a second before Clane could count. A certain part of my heart was in pain already.  I didn't know how to use the gun on someone I once loved. Pain!

    " Three two, one, shoot!" Clane's voice went and I pressed hard on a black thing silightly under the gun.

Black everything went.
