《Lethal Virtue》Chapter 8:Hornet Knife
Advertisement
He opened the door slowly, pulling out his gun and eye to see if anyone was there, there was no one from the place he was, then he opened and got ready to take pictures when one of the man that were there hit him right on his pack with a stick of wood that was on the ground, Paul turned back his body while being in the ground, hitting the guy right on his nuts with a strong kick and making him hit himself right with the wall then with one of the guns Paul shot him right on the spot leaving him dead on the ground with his blood right on the wall, another one appear right behind him where Paul was on the ground and this one had a knife on his hand and came straight up running to his spot so he could stab him with it but his mistake was that he screamed with all his lungs so that mistake took his life, Paul heard him and aimed at the guy and shot him too and in this one it took him eight bullets or more so, leaving Paul with just three bullets and a bullet wound on his shoulder.
But it was done, those were all of them that were protecting and doing their business, Paul stood up, grabbed the knife of the man just to have something more than three bullets in one of his weapons, but then he remembered that he got his hornet knife with venom that caused a paralysis on the sad person who gets stabbed with it. And in front of him was one big bullet through Cytro's "Good company" shell of fakeness; Drugs, of course it was drugs, it was obvious why Apollo was trying to hide them, it would ruin Cytro if a thing like this gets out, Zeus probably told him that drugs were the worst thing they could produce just by the fact that it was of no need as of money nor addiction, they prohibited overall, and Apollo knew that but he did not stopped, he had an addiction to drugs before even joining Cytro and becoming a Blood Reject, he just knew how to hide it, it was a mark that he had to erase from his past to get the power above any human and he wanted it, so he hide it that background on drugs but his addiction quickly overcame him again and again he fall on them but this time trying to make them secretly a business of himself, but with competent personal that could not even protect themselves from just one detective, he probably was sure no one would get in their way because of the fact they owned the city and no one would take the bother of exposing them, but there was a someone, Paul and the group would do it, and that was his mistake that would affect him later on.
Paul giving away his stress quickly grabbed his phone from his pocket and in no time he took the pictures. The place had a ton of bags of "sugar" market around the bags which of course it was cocaine and other drugs that were just labeled, He probably smuggle them outside the city and in the city's worse places. Paul send them right away to PC for them to have them in a file in their computers,"Mission accomplished" He said with a sigh of relief as he walked to the door "Now I gotta go back and have a nice relaxing sleep" he said while walking towards the door and climbing on the stairs of the wide dark hole, walked to the exit of the building which it was not done with construction and still had some tools around like a screwdriver or a drill, finally going to the entrance where a door should even be, his eyes already seeing his beautiful Charger and moving one step outside of the building when suddenly...

A pull on his shoulder pulling him so hard as the push of a bull to a torero, a force massively concentrated on a hand and such strength that made him basically go flying back to the insides of the building, "So, you don't seem so threatening, how the fuck did you killed all of them I don't know and I do not care, I just want some answers and you will give them now". It was Apollo, he arrived right at the moment Paul was about to scape from that place with a completely successful mission but it could not have been that easily, no of course not, Paul was on the ground feeling the pain of the bullet as it was not stopping by the massive pressure Apollo did on his shoulder, He was in pain, and he needed to get out of there so he could survive, Apollo walking closer and closer as his face was getting angrier and angrier and mumbling who knows how many curses he could of put out of his mouth, "Come on tell me, why are you here and who do you work for" He asked while making a kind of tone down relaxed voice he was forcing yet he fell on executing it.
He was right besides Paul body on the ground and looking down at him, when Paul grabbed a screwdriver that was close to his hand and stuck it right on the leg right below the knee making Apollo just make him feel a little bit of pain,"You know let me tell you something, to me getting a damn screwdriver on my leg is like just a simple sting of a bee, it hurts but just a little" Apollo expressed and then he preceded to pull it out like it was nothing and throw it far away, "You still have time to answer before I fucking make a hole right on your chest with my hand" He said, then in another attempt to kill Apollo Paul pullet his gun out and aimed at him but quickly and as fast as a razor Apollo kicked the gun out of his hand throwing it also to this time right side of where they were, "Last chance man, you got nothing to loose except your life", Paul was in trouble, he had to think of something to scape from this superhuman, "Alright alright I will tell you everything if you help me stand up" Paul said while looking exhausted,"fine fucking finally, now we talking" Apollo said then he pulled him up and make him stand up right in front of him, he knew if at least he punched him or kicked him he would not feel nothing, not even a knife would make him worry, he would just put it out of the way,"So know tell me who you are... suddenly Paul collapse to the ground as if he just had suddenly died, but in reality it was his stress overcoming him, he could not breath and Apollo saw that, he needed him alive just to find what he knew, He grabbed him by the arm and pulled him up just to see if that worked helping him exhale and inhale, "A come on you fucker I do not have time for this, I am gonna get you to that damn car and bring you to some place where I know they will get you good, then you will answer my questions".

Both of the walking and finally exiting the building, Paul was hardly trying to breath in an out, those stress attacks hit him right at the worse moment they could, he felt desperate of not breathing and dying on the spot, at least he was going to die for the best cause he could, doing what he love which is helping people, but he had to go on, he still had one mission to complete and it was this one. His scarcity of not breathing stopped, he could breath again normally, but he had to fake the none breathing, in that moment he had to think of a way of scape from Apollo, and he found it. They were both right in the back of the trunk of Apollo's very expensive and beautiful red carmesi Rolls-Royce, both ready to get in when suddenly Paul slipped his left hand out of Apollo and with his good right hand Stabbing his chest with his hornet knife, it took him completely unexpected which is the reason why Apollo could not do anything to react, he quickly pushed Paul away and took out the knife out of his chest, but the damage was done, in thirty seconds that part of the body and his body overall would quickly paralysed, even a monster as strong as him can not handle the effects of Paul's paralytic liquid that his simple yet extremely dangerous hornet knife Paul had.
Right at that moment that Paul was pushed away he started running to where his car was that it was fifteen or so steps of him, running as fast as he could but Apollo was about to catch him from behind, Paul knew he just had to survive for thirty seconds and he would be good, He run and run till he got to the car, entered and turned on the engine of it, the car was looking Paul's way so he had to move it where Apollo was running to him, He quickly pushed hard on the pedal and run into Apollo making him jump and hit the front of the car while getting on the roof and falling to the back of it into the ground, Paul got to push the gas and exited out of the place into the street and leaving it behind. Apollo that was on the ground got up and run to his car so he could catch him, but it was too late the effects of the knife started expanding through his body and he just could not move any muscle making him fall to the ground and just stood there, stupidly, miserable and not being able to do nothing, he knew he fucked up, and now he had a big big problem.
Paul was finally away and he himself knew that Apollo wouldn't catch him thanks to the effects of his knife, the bad thing is that he lost it, the good is that he might get one later, but that did not matter from the fact that he accomplished his mission, he felt exited and calm, no stress no nothing, he had done something important that might really affect Cytro, now he just had to comeback home.
He called the group and told them that he was ok and that he just had a little bit of trouble, but he made sure to tell them that that Apollo guy was extremely dangerous and that it was very possible the other Blood Rejects would be as strong as him if not more. He arrived at the entrance and was welcomed by Piers and Victor in which both of the quickly got him inside the hour to the main room and got him first aid on the should part which he had been shot, "Good job Pal but that thing right there was too dangerous, it was a mistake for us letting you go alone" Piers expressed with sorrow on himself for letting one of his comrades go into such dangerous situation, "I am find now so relax everyone, the best thing now is that we now have those pictures and the direction of the place, which it had the name of Mr. Apollo on them, the name and all would demonstrate that this specific drug was made from none other than him.
It was finally all over and Paul decided to do his weekly call on the Park's sisters which he did, but this time they did not answered the phone, he called more than five time, he got really worried and decided to stand up from the bed and don't caring about the pain of the wound which was covered on bandages, but Michael stopped him from standing up,"Hey hey man relaxed where are you going? You have to rest" Michael said "I have to look for the two sisters I told you guys about, they are not answering their calls and I am worried that Cytro might have found them and done something to both of them" expressed Paul, "Alright you stay here and I will go to their house and see what is going on with them, you for now go to bed and recover from that bullet wound" said Archie to Paul, then Archie proceeded to get to the exit of the door when Victor came in too and told him he would go with him.
Paul was really worried about it but now he had to rest, he needed that, but he also was worried about those stress attacks that would no let him breath and my affect him at the worst time, he knew he had to do something about them.

Arduous New World
Alright, so I'm using this as a whetstone to practice my fiction writing. I have dyslexia, so bear with me if I have any mistakes, if you point them out I'll try and correct them. The story is LitRPG, I'll try and avoid some of the tropes, see FAQ. What happens is that the world turns out to be a simulation coming to an end, and beginning on its new simulation, in this process the system of the universe declares that the new simulation will be rpg-based. The protagonist however is thrust into an empty space before the simulation comes to an end, he escapes and finds that the world as he knew it is gone.Chapters will come sporadically as I'm quite busy IRL. FAQ1: There will be no Harem. 2: If any sexual content, it will be be below the screen, example sentence [they made love - or - they had sex]3: I'll try to keep character motivations steady instead of having characters who says and does one thing in one chapter, only to change their mind in the next one. 3: Villains or "bad guys" won't be charicatures. Of course, as in real life, you can meet these people, but as far as big bads or antagonists goes, they will have some modicum of intelligence. 4: The MC does not have an encyclopedia of random knowledge. 5: OP'ness won't happen overnight, and it is something that I'm wary of in terms of adding it, of course eventually the MC will grow more powerful, but there won't be any cheats, except hard work; and the luck factor will be more or less similar to the rest of the population. 6: He won't be opposing the universe, no matter how powerful he grows, he is too insignificant7: he won't become friends with god/the ghost in the shell etc, no matter how powerful he grows, he is too insignificant, and an ancient simulation ai has no interest anyway, why would it ? Okay that's that for now.
