3 Chapter 3 - Kids These Days

Seaman walked quickly on the path, brushing past many people as he made his way through the crowd.

What people didn't notice was a pair of Swift hands took out thier wallets from thier pockets whenever the fast walking handsome young man brushed past them.

After walking for a while, Seaman noticed an alley and walked inside it. He took out wallets from his clothes one by one a total of 12.

"Well that was easy, let's see how much i got."

[ You stole from civilians, Your crime index in terminater world is increased by 20 points, Your current crime index is 20 points. ]

A notification came from nightmare imprint on his chest.

'Oh right whenever I do a criminal activity, my crime index will increase in this world, too high crime index will make legal authorities come after me, gotta control this crime index well, i don't want policeman on my back yet as i can't kill anyone before completing the mission.'

Sheyan thought while taking out the money from stolen wallets.

'Hmm 7546 dollars not bad, should be enough to buy the guns.'

"Hey dude, you look like you made a haul huh"

A scratchy voice called out from behind. Sheyan looked back and saw three teens with colorful funky hairs.

"Ohohoho big brother look at this punk with load of cash." Green haired skinny guy spoke while looking at the money in Seaman's hands with greed in his eyes.

"hey white face, gimme that cash, and scoot away." Red haired buff guy said while looking at Sheyan with a grin plastered on his face.

Seaman looked at the teens trying to rob him with a smile, he looked at the money then gestured towards the teen with his finger to come closer.

"Hehehe you are clever dude." Greeny walked towards Seaman with a smile thinking the guy in front of him is scared.

Seaman looked at Greeny's hand moving towards the money in his hand, then suddenly he slapped Greeny's cheek with his left hand.

Greeny felt his ear buzz as he lost his balance and crashed his head on the wall.

Other two teen saw that thier target dared to retaliate and ran towards Seaman with anger.

"Bastard you dared to hit my brother." Red haired guy shouted as he punched at Seaman's face.

Before the punch could land, Seaman stepped on his right, easily dodging the punch.

Puhh!

Red haired spewed out spit from his mouth as he looked down, a fist as hard as iron just hit him in his stomach, he felt unendurable pain in his stomach making him squat down as perspiration started to appeared on his forehead.

Looking at both his brothers Falling down, the guy with scratchy voice got scared, he turned back and ran towards the exit of the alley.

But before he could step outside, a pincer like hand gripped his neck from behind. Before he could make a sound, a fist hit the side of his head knocking him out.

Seaman looked at all three clowns lying down on the road while shaking his head.

"Ahh kids these days." Seaman sighed and searched the thief teens. He found three wallets, a pouch containing marijuana, and two pocket knives."

[ You assaulted and stole from thugs, Your crime index in the terminator world is increased by 10 points, Your current crime index is 30 points. ]

Seaman counted the money, a total of 1500 dollars, looks like these teens just looted someone else too or they won't have that much cash in thier wallet.

Teen like these spend all the money on drugs, marijuana, alcohol or gaming. They don't have much money with them usually.

Seaman kept all the money in his pocket and looked at pocket knife he just got.

'Let's try my Repair ability on this one to see it's effect.' Seaman took out other knife too then thought about using Repair ability in his mind. Both knived glowed a little then merged together.

Seaman looked at merged knife again to enquire it's attributes.

'It really got stronger, attack is increased by four points, and possibility of inflicting bleeding state is higher too. Nice' Seaman played with the pocket knife a little then came out of the alley as he started walking again.

'let's go to that Carousel bar now, in novel it was mentioned that they sell weopans illegally.' Seaman was thinking about his next course of action when the noise from a television showcase caught his attention.

"Los Angeles crime news report, there's been a new development in the Bulude street case with a suspect named Porter. At approximately 5:07 PM he robbed a supermarket, killing 6 civilians and stealing the day's earnings. 2 of the police amongst the 3 on his tail were also killed in the line of duty. According to investigators, the suspect had probably gone through intensive rigorous strength enhancing exercises, as his escaping abilities in running and jumping far exceeded the normal person. As of now, police have activated a large task force to capture this criminal, this is all from our reporter on site."

Seaman looked at Television with interest 'This should be partner of Cazider the gunman Sheyan killed in orginal, he will die soon.'

At this time, the television broadcasted a live image. On site, there were several police cars with their flashing siren lights on the street. 20-30 Policemen were taking cover while holding on to their guns, someone was shouting at the suspect to surrender.

Suddenly, a high speed sedan came charging out! That screeching sound from the wheels made people want to pull out their ears, and the policemen without hesitation, started firing off their guns. Thick white smoke were emerging from the sports car's hood. At this moment, a matchless bulky silhouette rushed out from the car door, in the air he appeared extremely agile and graceful as though a fish swimming in the pond. Somersaulting, he landed in the middle of those policemen.

At once, the american policemen started panicking, as they were afraid of firing at him in fear of shooting at their comrades, just like refraining from hitting rats for fear of breaking the vases (Chinese idiom). That unrestrained black figure moved as though possessing super speed, a moment he was charging forward, the next he had already heavily struck down one of the policeman. The might of the strike threw the poor cop 5-6 metres away. Screaming, the cop flew and landed onto the windscreen of a police car shattering it looking as though he had broken a dozen of bones.

'Oh looks like he got a high agility attribute with some speed related innate ability too.' Seaman observed the guy attacking the policeman on the television.

That black figure slid around the police cars nimbly like a snake – swift, precise, deadly, one at a time the policemen drop helplessly. This strange scene left the onlookers aghast, shocked, uneasy and frightened! This was basically a massacre!

However it was at this moment, a dark green police car came speeding in from far, this police car was extremely huge, about the same size as an ambulance or fire truck. The siren was flashing atop the car roof without a sound, its swift as lightning speed coupled with the reckless drifting gave one a misconception of its arrival.

Seaman looked the police car that just arrived with interest in his eyes. 'It's finally here, anti-terror task force delta, it can be called a mini boss in this world.'

While he was still observing the newly arrived car, the police car's windscreen suddenly retracted as three black gun barrels emerged silently from within. Distinctly, one could see a black glove holding on the grip of the gun – a grip with boulder like stability! Then, a spray of glaring gun fire shot out from the tip of the barrel! Before the broken car glass fragments fell to the ground, the distant black figure had already been shot excessively. First the chest, then the forehead followed by the rest of the body as blood spilled out from the gunshot wounds as he was thrown off from the impact. Taking another 3 shots in mid air, he flew 7-8 metres and landed on the ground with a "Pam!", rolling several more times and finally came to a motionless halt.

Under the intense glare of the spotlight, this guys's blood drained out slowly flowing into the nearby drain cover. Apart from the occasional twitch, he looked as though he could not die an uglier death.

Consecutively, Sheyan's nightmare imprint spoke in his ears:

[ Through your perceptive sense, you have gained the following information. ]

[ Contestant number 1844 was assaulted by Special Anti-terror Task Force Delta. ]

[ Contestant number 1844 is dead. ]

[ Because you have witnessed the death scene of contestant no. 1844 through the television screen, you are unable to retrieve any battle statistics. ]

'Hehe, although the attack power is very high but in reality they are just glass cannon. After I am done with my mission, for achieving Trecherous ally title i am gonna face them for sure. Let's see if they can still keep this strong front at that time.' Seaman smiled then turned around to stop a taxi.
