CHAPTER 6 A 'Ray' to the Nightmare

"Do he still in jail premises?"

"No, Ah… he– he is gone but I can provide you with coordinates sir."

"As expected from you Isaye. I'm on road Now, where's he heading?"

"He moved from south gate, so he probably be heading Sleak shopping ruins or nearby silent places."

"Which route be the shortest?"

"Street st. Peterton, turn left to coming circle."

"Got it." Sarlon follows way isaye states.

"God damn, wait sir–"

"What happened?"

"He's changing his course."

"Where?"

"I think slight left from ruins will might be his final location."

"Any more shortcuts?"

"Yes one is but–"

"I need no buts, he's dangerous if there is, guide me."

"Sneak into tunnel coming to right."

"Now?"

"Go straight till 2 turns and then take left."

"Okay, straight and left."

"Straight till the cake shop."

"Damn it." Shouts Sarlon.

"You need to get out of traffic sir, be quick."

"We can't afford to lose a single minute, any alters?"

"Where the hell you want to go?"

"What? Be in manners Isaye."

"It was not for you sir. Ray changed street, now his probable location is somewhere near cannibal forest."

"Shortcuts?"

"Take U-turn and change to Nt. Street."

"Now?"

"Left, down the tunnel and weep, you are 500 meters away from forest."

"Thanks Isaye. Call up for backups and take every injured to hospital later back me at cannibal forest."

"Roger sir. I've sent you his tracks."

"I'll handle him. Thanks again."

Sarlon's car leaps into the armed trees of cannibal forest and stops after covering a certain distance. He lunge out the car and stared towards the only target he can get eye on.

"It's a long time." Cried Sarlon.

"Oh! Its you filthy shit Sarlon. How's your shit doing?" Replied target.

"Well– quite well."

"Then go to hell, I've much more works except you."

"No you can't–" He stretched his right leg forward and hands out, "go away any further."

"Are you trying to tempt me into a battle?" He cracked a loud echoing laugh, "I think you forgot our previous encounter. Did you?"

"Old Ray had punched by now. It seems though, 'DESTRUCTO TYRANO" inside you died in last few years." Taunted Sarlon.

"You sure want to mess 18 time street fighting champion? Besides, you've got gun which I think is not healthy, is it?"

"Here," Sarlon threw his firearm away. "Now I guess your problems are gone."

"One question," said he gazing towards Sarlon, "how you did got my location?"

"You met Isaye right?"

"He had nothing to do with this."

"Yes he do to your right leg. Check it out."

Ray gets his eyes on a dirty spying tracker so small and light to be noticed. "I got tracked! When did it– That filthy bastard Isaye!" He pluck it out and threw it away.

"Hey you freak head, hands up."

"Isaye! You, you will stop me!"

"Yes Ray David, get down or I'll shoot you to pieces."

"Oh! I'm scared." Ray laughed loud. "Try it kiddo."

Isaye shoots but Ray rolled, dodged and turned Isaye down pointing gun to his head. "Anything else to try?"

Isaye stands as Ray get going, "Hey! I'm gonna dump you down freako." He stands glaring Ray, something in his eyes is burning, a light of passion or a revengeful pursuit.

"Who?" Said Ray turning towards Isaye, "me!"

"Yes you dumb criminal, I'm not letting you go, not without a fight to take you down."

"You wanted a fight?" shouted Ray. "You'll regret." He swifts towards Isaye, chokes his neck and thumps him down the floor. "You had get your lesson? huh" Isaye barely manages to roll out in a minute of hold. But Ray is not stopping he fiercely grabs his leg and swings him to walls, throws him away a distance.

"You can't tame a Jurassic animal." Ray howls, "Don't even try it." He strides away, meanwhile Isaye get hold of himself, runs and plunge towards ray and BAM! Ray spears him midair.

"You have closed your ears or what." Said Ray raising himself up.

"Man you got really piercing shoulders, Ah-huh, Ah." Isaye is crumbled in pain.

"There he is let's get him guys." Some 3 guards came running.

Ray knocks them all in single punches. "When did y'all learn to admit defeat." Ray yells.

Owing to this distraction Isaye plunges again, this time getting a tight sleeper hold to Ray's neck. "Now, you Jurassic, you are under my deadly hands."

"Lets see… how long– you can keep it tight. Ah…" Ray speeds up to a distant wall and thrashed his back leading Isaye to pain.

"Ahhhhhh! Damn you." Cried Isaye losing his hold.

Ray throws him down, picks him up on shoulders and runs for a powerslam to a nearby steel table.

"Ahhhh… Ah…Arrr…" Isaye moans in pain as he goes denting onto a steel table.

"You are a no match," Roared Ray crushing Isaye's bleeding face, "you understand."

"I– I'll not– let you go…" Isaye grabs Ray's right leg tight.

"You!" Ray kicks him furiously to get off his hold. "Remain here or I'll kill you out."

"That's when he did his job."

"Where are you lost Ray?" Sarlon smirks.

"I figured time of tracker being sneaked on."

"Too soon to realize Mr. Tyrano." Sarlon leaps onto him with a right jab straight to his jaw.

"You are serious about a fight!" Angry Ray's knee goes piercing into Sarlon's stomach. "You like that." Sarlon pushed Ray away and lunges a distance backwards.

"Your strength is same as before Tyrano."

"You're not declined too."

Both are glaring each other such as even an inch of movement can be countered. "Take this." Sarlon accelerates a rocket punch, "What!"

"It'll require more to get me down," Ray swifts down and behind Sarlon grabbing his hand and slamming him down. "Need more training Sarlon." Ray thrusts imploding fists onto his face hard. "This is Tyrano, you understand?" Ray cried.

"Get off," Sarlon throws him away to get some air.

But Ray fastens, "You shall lose." Kicks him right in gut as Sarlon goes tumbling down the slope into the roots of a big pine.

Ray comes roaring in a stomp however, Sarlon shocks him with a rollup kick. "Get this punk."

"This will shut you up."

"Are you kidding Tyrano? This is not even touching me."

"Ah! You bastard." A right– a left and 3rd down the chin as Ray goes down.

"Yeaaaahhhhh." Sarlon accelerates, jumps up for a heavy punch and gets piercing spear by Ray.

Both Ray and Sarlon lay upon green grass under the shimmering moon and twinkling stars.

None is ready to admit defeat. One moment Ray shows his slamming power but in a instance Sarlon's tricky submissions takes hold.

"Ha…hah, Sarlon, you got some real nerves."

"Tyrano, I'll end this now watch out!" Sarlon comes roaring , collapsed his hands with Ray's and pushing him down.

"You– have not got skills for it shitty bastard."

Sarlon is about to lose to Ray's unwavering power. "Bow down to me Sarlon."

"I'll never– still you has an opening," Sarlon gives a blow to Ray's groin.

"You tricky bastard." Cried Ray moaning In pain.

"Its over now." Sarlon stands smiling in front. Whence he suddenly falls down.

"What happened?" Ray stood up and checks Sarlon, "he's faded!" Ray scans the forest, none to be seen save swaying trees.

"He remains unconscious for at least 3hours." A deep sound heard from a little far away.

Ray turns to the direction of voice, "Car!" Ray approaches the black Mustang Shelby. "Someone in there?"

Door glass goes down. "Get in Mr. Ray David." Said the man inside.

"Who the hell are you?"

"Will talk in detail, I guess right now we must vanish from this unfruitful place. Shall we?"

One of the door slams open. "Welcome Mr. Ray– to the nightmare."
