"No. Please." Cried the woman. Her face is all wet from her tears. The people are scared. They wanted to help the woman but they know they are powerless. All they can do is hope and pray that someone might be able to them.

"Eight. If anyone of you would like to help this poor woman, now is the time to do so." But no one speaks up. It's not like they don't want to, it's just that they don't know who among them is a ninja.

"Nine." The priest pulled the hammer of his revolver when someone shouted in a distance.

"Stop!" Someone shouted. His voice is deep and a bit scary to hear. The priest smiled as looks to the direction where the shout came from. As if he already knew who shouted.

A bald man with a huge and buffed body is walking towards the priest. He has dark skin and wearing fur armor, pants and shoes. He is also holding a war axe on his right hand.

"Axe! Finally, I found you. Do you know how many villages I've cleansed just to find you?" Said the priest while still pointing his gun on the woman's head.

"Release her." The bald man demanded.

"Sure! Just drop your weapon first and let us chain you, then I would release her." Said the priest. Still pointing the gun on the woman's head.

The bald man didn't answer, he just dropped his axe. Seeing that the bald man dropped his weapon, the priest commanded his knights to chain the man. Two knights approached the man. They chained him and made him kneel on the ground. The priest smile when he sees that the knights were able to chain the bald man without resisting. His mission was a success.

"Release her." Said the man in a deep and angry voice.

The priest smiled and said "Okay." Then he shot the woman in the head.

"Nooo!" The bald man shouted. The village people screamed in fear. They thought they were already saved but it looks like there's no hope for them.

The priest walked toward the man. He smiles as he finds it amusing to see a chained man glares at him. As he stands in front of a helpless man, he smiled and shot its stomach. Axe didn't even groan in pain or made any sound to show that he is in pain. He just glared the priest. His eyes were bloodshot as he stares at the priest.
