Cover story 5: Neovas struck again
A casino, a night of payday, people pay with what they have, and pay all that they owe to each other because nobody's honest and everybody's an enemy. 5, just as the match against the house was about to start, the biggest biggs placing bets. 4, hundreds of thousands of dollars placed. 3, as the clock ticks at its wits. 2, there was a bomb, where's the bomb. 1, and boom. The night struck again, and the message as criptic as I did this because society, to tell em I am here.
What a way to go all out
---
You could say I was on my path for a search, not for the nay sayers, not for the son of Lucifer callers, I was on a search for a guard, a nefty paid guard at that but not a trusted one, for all big men have trust issues, I AM BIGGER. AAAND what better of a guard than back alley guards. And what better is an assassin, they focus on their duty and ask … little, (oh mummy dear can I, and the guard can only respond in yes you may).
- Can I buy the moon
- Yes you may
- Can I blackmail the government
- Yes you may
- Lastly can I steal a lolipop from a babey
- Yes
- More babeys?
- Yes you may
My dream. So in search of the completion of my said dream, I searched and found the best offer, one of the best at least. Thee ATANUS NEOVA, he seemed pale, had a brown jacket and a brown fedora to match. Drinking a cup of tea, seemed like a non common cup, WHY AM I SEARCHING HIS WARDROBE AND FOOD TASTES, that is not important. Lastly eliminating any threat by buying it, (ooh pleease when you have money all you can do is throw it away), and as I approached all I could think of was fight or flight, but not for me. So when I arrived he beat me to it, he asked me a question first.
What are your thoughts on life?

He seemed annoyed, I got annoyed at him myself but my composure was kept. He looked away but came to his senses for a moment, I thought he hated the sight of me. So I ASKED HIM AGAIN, with a smile on my face. Looking down on people is fun I stated to him as I asked him, fun being above. I was just minding my own business. Too simply tease is fun enough for me. I had seen the future, but I wanted no part in it, little did I know my hypocrisy spoke louder than my rational thoughts. But Malfonz was eager to say somethin to me. I think I looked weird, but dude, really you couldn't find any other? When he was eager to give me less space, I returned the favor by confronting the guy to make him lay off me, I would say I didn't want him there but just like him I had ego, and this felt like a story eons ago.

"Come on dude, buddy buddy, why you looking at me like that with your small puppy eyes", said Malfonz ruffling Neovas feathers a bit.
"Why, you aching to drink my tea, what can I say a man who approaches me I like to tease a warding off ritual of mine, if I ever see any strangers I don't really like", said Neova as a response.
"I thought you had class", Malfonz said disgusted looking taking the seat closest to Neova.
"Please take a seat", said Neova.
"I am, mutt", said Malfonz a bit annoyed but he has to get this sinking feeling off his bones of eliminating the enemy.
"Why, why confrontation by a man like me", asked Malfonz.
"A man who lives life has a reason for everything, I live life, doesn't mean I have a reason yet to be perfect, I just did what I did, what brings you here", said Neova a bit tired.
"I came here for confrontation, either you work under me, or you don't work, sleep with the fishes, your ugly mugs been annoying me, I'm faster, stronger, able to do more than what you can do", said Malfonz kicking his chair making Neova stand up too.
"And who told you you were all good looking", said Neova pushing Malfonz back.

As the man with the red hair carried me to the ground, planning on ripping of limb for limb, the bag on the counter had string (doctors say I gotta floss), having enough time to pull it out while the big man was talking. I would like to say that I pulled and two strings moved, one to open the bag and the other to turn on the sniper rifle, BANG BANG. None of that, instead a twist of the feet and the big mans on a headlock, the floss wont do any good, worst case scenario I took a chair to smash against him wood to head righ as our eyes locked in for a second. Bam.
Nope, nothin, he really is brain for brawn,
I guess his attentions changed, the future is different and his attentions have changed to a more passive one. But he has his eyes on the vaccine at least, but when does he notice I asked that day because he didn't know just yet and I wanted it that way.

HEY BIG SHOT.
LOOK ME IN THE EYES YOU'RE NOTHIN BUT ANOTHER AUTHORITY IN FRONT OF ME.
Maybe because, I might not know exactly what, or why, but after seeing death over and over, if I am meant to kill, why not pursue it. Why not kill, but the reason I stuck was not due to killing it was due to the pain a person felt, that raw emotion was the joy and anger I faced in my life, why not ASK FOR MORE.
(That was always my reason for this life, I can never change) and just as I was about to punch I said something, something slipped, something about the next glimmering light the next new king. He saw something in those words, and I was supposed to be smart.
BANG, TCZZZZZZZ
SO I SEE YOU HAVE WENT AFTER THE VACCINE I HELD ONTO. WHY NOT A TEST ROUND. HMM STUCK.
My face twisting to more excruciating forms, I was both angry and happy.
HOW DOES IT FEEL TO BE BEATEN TO A PULP BY A PEASANT.
SLAMMED, HIT IN THE HEAD, THAT IS OFTEN THE WAY TO GO BUT YOUR SPECIAL, NO NONONO, YOUR SPECIAL, YOUR IMMORTAL, SHOT TO THE KNEE AND YOUR DEAD. I KNOW YOUR HISTORY, CASES UPON CASES ABOUT A MAN LIKE YOU, WHO KNEW HE COULD BE SKINNED ALIVE. LET MY KNIFE GREET YOU, YOUR KNEE IS YOUR WEAKNESS AFTER ALL, HUUH SPEAK LOUDER DAMN IT.
Little did Malfonz truly know how much he would grow to regret the decision of wanting more, making a guard out of the man who hated you too, to have him around you. For the next few days with Neova would both prove him wrong and kill him inside. Fin.
