Prologue
Bounty hunters are people who are dedicated to persecuting those for whom they offer a reward, we can even resort to murder and torture. There is a lot of competition ahead, but by moving some cards on the table we can have an ace up our sleeve.
You need to have a cold heart and a strong mindset for this job; You cannot become fond of it, it is not allowed to forgive and it all depends on the money you are paid. The methods are not necessarily ethical, but if it is necessary to torture for a good amount of money ... That would happen.
...
"Aghhhh! Please stop!"
The painful screams of a 30-year-old man echoed throughout the place; The fingers of his hands were cut and with blood escaping through the holes, his face full of bruises that were causing swelling throughout the area of the face, an immense pool of blood covering the ground with bodies that were also tortured ... A scene of terror.
With a military knife covered with the scarlet blood of the tortured man was rocked back and forth, blood spilled from the sharp tip with small pieces of fresh meat, suddenly everything was wiped by a rag, and the chucillo was like new again.
"What are you going to cooperate with?"
A 30-year-old man with messy hair and gray eyes radiating extreme cold, took away the tortured man who was on the ground expelling groans of pain and with his gaze lost among the thousands of bodies around him.
"Where is the girl? You promised to cooperate"
"N-I don't know... Let me go"
His voice was weak and helpless.
"Fuuuuu. I guess again it will be the hard way, you are the CEO of the company, you have to have information."
"D-Stop! Seriously, n-I don't know where the girl is!"
The cold silver eyes looked at him and flashed. They grabbed him by the shoulders and hit the bridge of his nose.
Scarlet blood again began to flow on the ground.
"From what I see, this was another failure. You don't serve me anymore, I just hope your soul rests in peace."
From his suit he took out a silver pistol that glowed violently in the dark. His eyes were flooded with terror and anguish. His body was too weak to scream and he was so shattered as to be able to move.
"It's going to be a puncture... Bang"
The sound of the gun barrel was heard throughout the area. The smell of burning metal escaped through the muzzle of the gun. A dry knock was the next thing heard; The torturedman's body collided with the pavement, his head completely shattered with his brain exposed, a giant pool of blood surrounded his body, and the last thing heard was a breath.
...
...
...
The cold and present night surrounded the whole world, it was impossible to escape this omnipresent entity. A large skyscraper was the most extravagant thing in this area, it was nothing impressive for our person.
"You'd better pay me double what was agreed, they waited for me with an ambush and I almost died"
The same torturer in his ball gown spoke seriously. He was in front of someone chubby, with his hair lost on his head and thousands of armed men protecting him.
This man with drops of fat falling down his forehead, let out a laugh that repudiated his bounty hunter.
"Hahaha! Don't worry Moon, here's your pay... By the way. Did you finally find it?"
His voice was serious but with a hint of hope, he only hoped that the man who had the reputation of being someone who could get the information to anyone could have found that "someone".
"Nope. He said he didn't know anything about the whereabouts of the girl, I know very well when someone lies and because of his tone of voice he didn't lie at all."
Moon, the bounty hunter only focused on the briefcase full of banknotes, his attention was no longer directed to that boss of his who hired him, he just wanted to see if his pay was complete.
"I see... It was a mistake to trust you"
...
Time stood still. The thousands of agents surrounding his boss pulled guns from their suits. He was surrounded and his chances of escape were nil.
"I'm sorry Moon, but you are a danger to my people, besides, you couldn't complete the work I commissioned you for two years."
His disgusting smile and self-centeredness was something he liked nothing more than his laughter. In life there are many things that one hates, and bounty hunters hate one thing... Treason.
"I understand your situation, but I think this welcome and at the same time farewell to my job is excessive"
"Guahahaha! As always being so funny in these kinds of moments, I hope you don't take it personally."
He closed his eyes momentarily. He closed the briefcase with all his money and left it near his boss.
"It was nice while it lasted... I hope you don't take this personally either."
The briefcase made a high-pitched sound like clockwork. Tic, tac, tic, tac. This sound made everyone nervous, Moon just turned around and walked towards the exit.
"E-That's..."
"It can't be..."
His boss watched as he retreated and saw a sneer in his mouth. His anger was more enormous than his fear, he violently got up from his post and pointed it out.
"Kill him idiots!"
His cry echoed in the deaf ears of his bodyguards who were looking at the briefcase... It was too late.
...
The loud sound of an explosion originated in the skyscraper, the burning fire surrounded the whole place, thousands of bodies burned and with their faces present in agony.
*Buuum*
Another explosion but of greater magnitude appeared in front of Moon who was on the ground with several second-degree burns on his body, blood was running down his forehead and his ball gown was in pieces.
"Fuck! This was too suicidal, but at least it worked, I just have to escape this place before it collapses."
With the necessary force he got up from the ground and approached the stairs in front of him leading to the bottom of the skyscraper.
"I have 40 bullets and two magazines with the same amount, in total there are a total of 267 men... I have to make good use of them."
With great speed and agility he went down the stairs and as he did so, man after man fell to the ground by bullets that pierced his skull or vital organ of his body.
"56..."
Bullet after bullet, man after man, a few minutes to escape, and only one life will be saved.
"First charger... Empty... 123"
The last charger full. His last forty bullets... One mistake and I would regret it for eternity.
"Second charger... Empty... 153"
The chances of escaping decreased drastically, his only way out was to find some object to cushion his fall on the 45th floor.
"Stay in your place..."
That voice...
His vision looked at the same man who hired him several times to search for his daughter. His skin with third-degree burns, his body weakened and barely strong enough to stand and a face full of rage.
"It's impressive that you survived the explosion of a grenade, having that grease gives advantages, I guess"
"You... You will be dead this day."
Before the gun was fired, someone grabbed his wrist and began to fight with him for the power of the weapon.
"Try it, I have God on my side!"
A violent struggle began to see who would have the gun in his favor and his life would end today; Although Moon had experience in different areas, his strength was not his specialty. On the other hand, his boss thanks to his complexion had more strength, therefore... The fight is over.
*Bang*
A shot rang through the area. A few drops of blood fell to the ground. The smell of burning metal escaped through the air. The shooting site was covered and blood was pouring from his mouth.
"Damn son of a bitch..."
The most coveted bounty hunter in history was now vulnerable on the ground.
His boss had on his face planted a smile of satisfaction and sovereignty, he had the man who almost killed him kneeling in front of him and he didn't want to end that fun...
"Hahaha... Hahahaha!"
His uncontrollable laughter entered his ears, it was so disgusting, so miserable, so... Terrifying.
"Good game... But I'm smarter."
His eyes pointed to his body. They had a small C-4 implanted in their body, I look at the ground at the man who was kneeling smiling at him with amusement.
"There is no time left, I will continue to die despite the chances of survival... But you will go with me to hell!"
A crazy look appeared on his bleeding face, his silver eyes flashed with malice, and a sharp sound was all that was heard.
...
A last explosion was heard that also lit up the dark night. The rescue teams arrived but unfortunately did not arrive in time, the building collapsed by that last explosion; Several lives were lost that day, but a new rebirth would happen...
