Us Against The World - Ch (1/1)
Myungsoo felt the blade pull out from his abdomen as he collapsed to the ground. He clutched at the hole in his stomach, trying to stop the blood from gushing out. Blood spurted out from his mouth as he looked up at his attacker."An obedient dog you are," Myungsoo taunted, despite bleeding from his wound. "They trained you well. No wonder they sent you after me." Myungsoo smirked. "But a hunter with a weakness becomes the hunted." He eyed his attacker as he wiped the blood from his mouth and smiled. "How did it feel to have the tables turned on you?""You're a master of deception," said the figure. "I should have known it was you from the start.""You deceived him too," said Myungsoo. "We're one of a kind."The figure glared at Myungsoo with hatred.
He raised the sword to strike at Myungsoo, but his blade was blocked by two swords. He looked at saw Sungjong armed with two swords, standing in front of Myungsoo to defend him. He saw a second person approaching Myungsoo's side."Myungsoo, hang on," said Sunggyu as he helped Myungsoo up.Myungsoo smiled when he saw Sunggyu. He turned his head and caught his attacker's eyes before smirking at him."Sunggyu," Myungsoo said, turning his attention to Sunggyu. "You shouldn't be here. He's dangerous."Sunggyu looked at the figure in black with the sword in his hand. "Are you the one who hurt Woohyun?" he asked. "Why are you after him?"Before the figure could respond, a group of masked men in black appeared behind him."Why are you all here?" asked the figure. "I can deal with the traitor.""Boss's orders. Finish this traitor then deal with Requiem," informed one of the men.At the mention of Requiem, Sungjong gasped in surprise. "I won't let you!" stated Sungjong stepping forward to face them."Sungjong," Said Sunggyu, trying to pull him back. "There's too many of them. You can't do this."Sungjong smiled. "You're underestimating me, Sunggyu." He glanced at Myungsoo before turning back to Sunggyu. "Take him and go. I'll stop them.""There's no way I can let you do this," protested Sunggyu."He'll die if you don't," said Sungjong. "Now go!"The group of men rushed towards them as Sungjong charged forward to meet them with his swords.Seeing Myungsoo's weakened state and Sungjong's determination, Sunggyu led Myungsoo away from the scene. The figure in black remained in his position as he stood and watched Sunggyu helping Myungsoo escape. He did not even attempt to pursue them until his eyes caught sight of one of the men catching up with the struggling pair.
Sunggyu felt the sharp blade cut through the air as it struck his back. He heard the ripping of fabric and flesh. He waited for the pain to kick in, but surprisingly, it never came. He turned back and saw a figure in black standing behind him with his sword by his side. The figure looked at Sunggyu before falling to his knees to reveal another figure standing behind him with a blood stained sword in his hand."What are you doing?" the figure in the back shouted to the one who was on his knees. "Are you out of your mind?"Sunggyu looked down to the figure in front of him. It was then he noticed the cut across his back. He didn't understand why one of them would do that until he heard the figure speak."Are you okay, old man?" ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Authors' note:Have fun trying to work this one out guys.
