The Red Nights - Volume 1 Chapter 10 Find The Truth Part 2

” OK it’s done ” Jamal said after they finished chaining the five men ” as we decided, we shall go to them one by one. It must be much easier ” . Natasha nodded and stayed aback while Jamal was killing the first guy. After he pulled out his knife, he stepped back to wait for the awakening beside Natasha .

Seconds later the corpse started to shake , with the same procedure as before it stood up . Dark veins rose from the man’s chest to his chin , his skin started to turn white and his eyes changed to a real dead body eyes .

The only difference from before was that Jamal didn’t wait for the dead man to attack first. With an incredible speed he moved forward him , cut his throat in a single swing and moved aside to let Natasha finish him . With a single jump she arrived just in front of the man . Though he had his head overturned on his back because of Jamal’s knife strike and dark blood was leaping out through his neck like a geyser , Natasha knew that he was far to be completely dead.

she held tighter her combat knife focusing on her foe and less than two seconds after flames appeared on the blade of her weapon and as much they were growing the knife changed into a long Japanese sword . As she was close to the man , in a single swing of her katana, she cut him off , separating the higher part of his body from his lower part. The two body pieces fell down on the floor and changed back to normal as the dark blood was leaking out and evaporating at once after it touched the ground.

They reproduced the same scene with the second criminal, after Natasha finished him she turned to Jamal with a smile ” it’s quite easy though. I don’t know why we were stressing so much ” . Jamal smiled too ” don’t drop your guard , you have to stay careful it’s far to be finished ”

He stabbed the third guy and as to give him reason when he stood up and finished to transform , he looked at Natasha and at her katana, then he made something which stunned everyone. Before Jamal had the time to attack him , he jumped over the two left guys and in a quick move he put his hands around their necks and broke them . It was so astonishing that even Jamal couldn’t react, he stood there completely immobile and saw the two broken necks standing up to join their murderer .

” Does it still look easy for you? ” Jamal asked to Natasha.

“…” She couldn’t find any word to reply. The day before they had to fight with two of these monsters and they badly struggled to take them down, at moment they were three what would obviously be even harder.

[ Ha well, it’s not like I didn’t know from the beginning that it would turn into a desperate situation ] Jamal sighed. [ Hmm , the murderer placed himself behind the two new awakens, seems like he will not fight us directly… he seems want to observe us ] while he was carefully observing his foes , Natasha stepped forward ready to attack , he quickly raised his arm to stop her . ” What do you want to do? ”

” Yes I know, you taught me that in unusual situations we should observe before reacting, but I have a plan. You will distract the two guys while I will defeat the dude behind them. I have a feeling that he would be the most dangerous ” Natasha frowned ” I don’t know but it’s like he is … ”

” Smarter than the others ” Jamal cut ” it’s precisely why we shall capture him instead of anyone else. Don’t forget the priority of this mission . Matteo may get more data if we catch that one. ”

Natasha nodded ” It seemed like he was afraid of my sword so he will surely send the two guys to kill me ”

” I would rather say that he will send them to test you in order to know how strong you are and how you use to fight and he would get all the information he needs , he will finish you personally ”

” I have a plan ” Natasha said ” come close I will tell it to you at your ear ” . Jamal obeyed, approached her and inclined his head to hear her out and then straightened it after she finished. ” I don’t think it’s actually a good idea it would be better if I give the plan instead, give me one minute to think about it and then… ”

However Natasha didn’t stay for any explanation . She instead , with the crozier of her katana , hit hardly Jamal’s lower part. And while he was slowly succ.u.mbing to the pain , she ran forward toward the three guys. As they thought the smartest one moved back while the two others went toward Natasha , who didn’t hesitate to face them.

For half an hour she was fighting them on , with her sword she cut off arm after arm , leg after leg until they were completely unable to fight anymore. She had already eliminated one and turned to finish the second one when the smartest undead appeared behind her from nowhere , she didn’t even sensed him before that . Even though she was owning some incredible reflexes she would be unable to dodge his blow as he was too close to her and moreover the place he was it was as if he deliberately chose to place himself at her blind spot and according to the way he shaped his hand , he prepared to break her neck in a quick move as he did before with the two guys.

As his hand was reaching Natasha’s neck, an heavy thick chain came wrapping around his neck tightly , he didn’t have the time to finish his attack that Jamal pulled furiously on the chain and made him crashing onto the ground at a few meters from his feet, he accompanied his move by planting his knife on the arm he wanted to use to strangle Natasha . The latter jumped over , landed heavily on his knees making them break and rapidly cut off his two arms by starting with the one which was free .

” You see … it was a great plan ” she sighed ” alive and completely captured, Matteo can do his job without any fear ”

Jamal bowed ” I’m still convinced that I could have found a better plan ” he groaned ” seriously crushing my balls was really necessary? ”

Natasha blushed as she was very embarrassed ” Oh excuse me , I’m truly sorry, I just wanted to make it more realistic . It was not my intention to hurt your pe…” she stopped her hand as she was about to make a to move to touch his hurt part ” anyway I must go calling Matteo ” , she ran toward the gate of the factory.

” I should have stayed at home . I woke up very early to just sit beside that gate for more than 4 hours ” Matteo said to Natasha. ” You don’t think you exaggerate a little more? ” Natasha replied. When they reached Jamal’s position , Matteo immediately noticed the dead corpses laying on the ground . He suddenly stopped as he was a little bit worried, however it didn’t take long time before his worry changed into fear as he saw what he thought being a dead corpses moving .

Jamal figured it out by only seeing at his face , with a sign of his head he silently told Natasha to calm and cheer him and she immediately understood . She moved behind him , put her hands on his shoulders and tried to talk with with a low voice though ” Does it look like those you saw on your vision ? ” , [ what I’m am saying, it will definitely not comfort him in anyways ] . However it seemed like that talk ended up to calm him a little bit as he started to talk ” Yeah it looks like they are pretty similar “, as he was slowly moving forward Jamal asked ” Would you be able to obtain any answer from him ? ”

He shook his head ” I told you before that I didn’t have such powers like reading in his mind and even though I could I don’t how to proceed ” .

Though what he said was quite deceiving Jamal still didn’t give up ” come closer, I know it’s actually scaring you but you have to stand it ” . Matteo considered his words, tight his fists and went closer until he reached Jamal and sat beside him, ” good , you said you could feel abnormalities , right? Now I want you to focus on this feeling you’re sensing from this dead guy, OK? ”

He nodded and closed his eyes in order to concentrate. He slowly raised his hands to the two sides of the corpse like he was looking for something. The dark veins from the dead man started to disappear while an odd dark smoke came out from his nose, his ears, his mouth and even from his eyes, that dark went on raising on the air until it formed an odd shaped cloud just before Matteo’s head.

Both Jamal and Natasha were stunned by the the spectacle was happening before their eyes. Natasha wanted to comment about it but Jamal stopped her as she might disturb Matteo’s concentration. They stayed quiet while the dark cloud continued to grow and change his form every 30seconds , once Natasha was convinced that she saw into it what it seemed to be an attraction park .

At a moment it stopped to change its forms , it moved toward Matteo and started to surround him. As the process was going on Natasha was feeling anxious, she looked at Jamal and her eyes seemed to tell him ” shouldn’t we go to help him ? ” . However in his eyes we could only see his determination, as he badly wanted to know what was waiting for them in the near future he decided to fully believe in Matteo and his abilities , so even though his mind was shouting on him to interfere rapidly his heart was stronger and convinced his body to step out.

The dark cloud completely recovered Matteo and it remained like that for quite a short time before they started to see some reactions. His body started shaking, and he suddenly screamed very loudly. [ Oh shit, what is going on? ] after Jamal thought that, the dark cloud was actually moving out from Matteo’s body . The smoke was raising high on the air and disappeared and as the dark smoke was leaving his body, his screams diminished the intensity. When the last slightest part of dark smoke left his body Matteo directly fell down unconsciously.

Both Jamal and Natasha ran to come see how he was ” He’s breathing fortunately ” Natasha sighed.

” He must be exhausted from all the previous efforts . Take him at your home , I will finish the work of today and come to your place later, feel free to rest and even take a shower , It must take a long time . I would also ask Lina to tell the others that today is off , no training. ” Jamal said.

Natasha nodded , carried Matteo on her arms and left the factory while Jamal was gathering the corpses or rather the pieces of bodies in order to burn them at one time . Once he finished , he went out , closed the factory and jumped over his motorbike. He rode to his girlfriend house and found her while she was leaving.

” What happened s.e.xy boy ? ” she said once she saw him .

” I would want you to do me a favor ” he responded
