"DUTCH!" Everyone yelled after seeing their captain go down. Revy then turns and shoots the motherfucker that shot Dutch. At this points in time the mercenaries were also using the cover of darkness to their advantage and managed too circle around Lagoon Company using the many entrances and exits that were abundant in the old hospital building's wine cellar.
"Dutch! Oh shit! NO NO NO! Stay with us God damnit!" Benny said frantically as he and Rock attended to their captain and tried their best to stop the bleeding.
After he had been shot the crew dragged Dutch to a new position of cover now that the enemy knew where they were. They moved behind some shelves what were surrounded by wine Barrels.
"Fucking hell, this looks like the end of the line for me. I just wanna say it's been a pleasure to have been your employer for all these years." Dutch said as he could feel the pain rushing through his body as he had lost the use of his legs, He knew he would not survive.
"Stop bullshitng Dutch were all getting out of this shit!" Revy yelled in denial.
Dutch then took a cigarette out of his pocket and light it. "Stop lying to yourself two-hands you know better than anyone what happens when you get shot in the back" Dutch said right before he took a drag from his cigarette and quickly drew his revolver and shot a mercenary he spotted hiding in the shadows.
"Go now before they fucking kill you too!" Dutch ordered his crew
"No Dutch we aren't going to leave you!" Rock shouted unwilling to leave
"Rock it's not wise to disobey a captain's orders." Benny interjected.
"Hey Boss you gonna be alright?" Benny sorrowfully asked
"Ha! Just fine Benny boy I've been around long enough and maybe now is finally the time to pay a visit to some loved ones." Dutch said.
Revy wasn't taking this well at all she was getting very angry and wanted to shoot all the motherfuckers who were after them to get even for what they did to Dutch but she knew they were heavily out gunned and wouldn't survive a head on assault.
"Here you go no point in letting these go to waste." Dutch said as he gave his shotgun to Revy and his revolver to Benny, the M4 he picked up was out of ammo at this point. After Dutch gave them his weapons he said: "it has been an honor." The three of them then nodded their heads and regretfully started running to find a way out. As the three of them ran they were quickly followed by more mercenaries. Dutch then slowly started to fade in an out of consciousness and said: "Best of luck to the three of you." right before he let deaths cold embrace take hold of him.
The three of them kept running and avoiding gun fire when suddenly more bad luck hit their way and Benny got shot in the knee!
"FUCK!" Benny yelled out in pain as he fell to the floor.
"OH SHIT BENNY!" Both Rock and Revy shouted in unison as they ran towards him. They then started to pick him up by the shoulders and carry him. As Benny was looking sadly at his injured leg he took a deep breath and woefully said: "You two should go il only drag you down."
"That's crazy talk Benny we've already lost Dutch we sure as hell won't let you die too!" Rock said.
"Look I don't wanna die either but I haven't really done anything besides sit behind a computer for most of my life. As it stands now I have the opportunity to do something good for once and I would like to do that. Besides between the four of us the two of you have the most to lose." Benny informed them.
Revy then stopped running and said: "Put him down Rock."
"Revy you can't be serious?!" Rock asked shocked at what very just told him.
"Shut the fuck up Rock you know damn well I am! If Benny wants to fucking buy us some God damn time who the fuck are we to deny his shitty request! Revy angrily yelled."
"Revy I…" Rock said before Revy cut him off
"I don't wanna hear it! We can talk about this shit later I'm not in any fucking mood for one of your lectures right now."
The two of them then reluctantly placed the injured Benny down and said their goodbyes.
"Hey Benny thanks for this." Rock said dismayed that another one of them was going to die
"No problem what are friends for?" Benny replied with a smile.
"Hey Benny!" Revy shouted calling Benny's attention.
"Yeah Revy?" Benny said wondering what Revy had to say.
"Tear these fuckers a new asshole." Revy said as she tossed him Dutch's shotgun.
"Will do. Now start running there almost here."
Rock and Revy did as Benny asked and started running to find a way out. Right now the mercenaries that were after them started catching up and Benny could see them coming towards him. "This is for Dutch!" Benny yelled as he shot the revolver and despite not having any experienced with firearms manages to take out some of the people after them. As Revy and Rock both kept running Benny started to disappear from view.
Revy and Rock ran and ran till finally they came upon what looked like the exit. However the shit storm they were in never seemed to let up. The exit was blocked by a large amount of debris and would take hours to move all of it out of the way; time was something the two of them didn't have.
"SHIT SHIT SHIT! Were gonna fucking die here? There's no way out of this!" Rock said frantically. Revy was starting to get annoyed at Rocks bitching and promptly slapped him in the face.
"Rock now is not the fucking time for this get a grip dumbass!" Revy yelled.
Suddenly Revy hears the mercenaries closing in on their location. "SHIT!" Revy said, she then took Rock by the arm and started dragging him behind a shelf in a dimly lit section of where they were, in order for the two of them to stay hidden.
The mercenaries eventually arrived at where Rock and Revy were. Suddenly the mercenaries' commanding officer said to his troops: "We have them cornered men. Stay sharp they could be anywhere." The area all of them were in looked like storage area with lots of boxes and shelves this provide many places for Rock and Revy to hide behind. The two of them would move from cover to cover keeping a close eye on the mercenaries to make sure they weren't detected. Right now Revy looked through the shelves trying to find where the mercenaries are headed next. Suddenly as the two of them were hiding Rock notices something in moving a few feet away from them located on their left hand side. He then squints his eyes to try and see what it is. When he finds out his eyes widen. Rock then leaps into the air as if he were trying block something. Revy notices this and turns her head to see what Rock is up to. Suddenly two shots then ring out and Rock falls to the ground.
Revy saw everything as if it happened in slow-motion. She was paralyzed by what she witnessed. Everything seemed to stop as her chest tightens up and her heart thrummed in her ears eventually ending with all of the sound she could hear being replaced by a steady whining. When Rock finally hit the ground Revy snapped out of it and went into a furious rage. She quickly drew both her cutlasses and started obliterating the person who shot Rock. She was absolutely merciless as she emptied both clips and a total of 30 rounds into the unfortunate mercenary. Suddenly the other mercenaries heard Revy's gunshots and headed for her location. As she heard the large number of mercenaries running towards her she grabs and takes Rock into a nearby janitor closet after which she then barricades the door.
"Fuck Fuck Fuck ! Rock don't you fucking die on me!" Revy shouted frantically at Rock as she placed pleasure on the large hole in his chest, Rock however was not responding to her.
HAHAHA very funny dumbass cut the crap! Revy yelled but still Rock didn't respond
"ROKURO OKAJIMA! If you die I'm gonna fucking kill you!" Revy shouted as she started to shake Rock hoping he would move. But again Rock still didn't so much as breathe. Unlike Dutch and Benny Rock died instantly. He had no final words and he was never able to say goodbye. Revy knew this but she just did not want to accept this fact. Revy then took Rocks lifeless body and rested it on her knees she then looked down and said; "why the hell did you take that bullet for me you dumbass?" while her bangs covered her face as tears started to well up in her eyes. It was not like Revy to cry but how could she not; it had been 13 years since the terminator maid went toe to toe with those American soldiers and a lot has changes since then.
Flash back
Over the years the lagoon company had become the most renowned and employed shipping company in South East Asia they even employed more crew members to keep up with the extra work load they were getting. As time went on a lot of things changed in the four of them as well. Dutch's beard started turning grey and he was think of retiring soon, Benny was starting to expand the lagoon company's foot hold so he set up a garage and computer repair shop with Dutch's help, and Rock after so many years had eventually ran out of clothes and started to wear the Hawaiian shirt Revy gave him. The biggest change however was with Revy who over time seemed less angry and nihilistic. Dutch and Benny thought that maybe spending almost every single day with Rock caused Revy to be less frustrated. Even the denizens of Roanapur thought for the longest time that Revy and Rock were together. However none of them could say for sure seeing as both the gunslinger and the negotiator weren't too keen on sharing personal details and anyone who asked would have face to face introduction to Revy's sword cutlass but there was no denying what the two of them had was special.
End of flashback
After Revy finished thinking of the past she kept looking at Rock as tears started to fall from her face. She sat there full of regret, she had so many things she wanted to tell him but now the chance to do so was take away from her. Rock had been with her through thick and thin, he never left her side even if she wanted him too, he was always patient. She started to get angry at herself for never even saying so much as thank you to him but for her the worst of it was the fact the she never said that four letter word. The very word people say to each other when they value one another. She never told him that despite how many times she wanted to or how many times she had the chance to she never did, her fear always held her back. She was afraid the Rock didn't feel the same, she was afraid of what he would think of her, she was afraid that he would stay away from her if he knew everything about her.
Suddenly the mercenaries outside the supply closet started shooting at the barricades Revy set up using metal filling cabinets. As the cabinets started to get riddled with holes Revy didn't seem to care she just kept looking at Rock and said: "hey there partner, Il be seeing you soon." She then tried to move Rocks body when suddenly she caught a glimpse of a silver chain hanging down his neck. She curiously tried to reach for it to find out what it was. When she reached down and pulled it out of his shirt what she saw almost drove her to tears. It was a silver bullet the exact same one she gave him 13 years ago. After seeing the bullet her hands started to tremble and more question started to race through her mind.
"Why the fuck does he still have this? Does this mean he felt the same?" Revy thought to herself as she started to get more confused. At this point she was experiencing emotions ranging from anger to happiness. She grabbed her head and bit her lower lip so hard that it bled. She just wanted the pain to stop. After while it did stop then she dropped her hands and sat there looking as if she had mentally shut down.
Suddenly Revy started to move, she then proceeded to remove Rock's teal green tie and then wrapped it tightly around her right hand. She then got up off the ground in a manner resembling a zombie she was hunched over and putting her weight mostly on one leg. At this point the mercenaries had destroyed the barricade Revy set up and they deployed a small group of 5 men to head towards her. As the five men squadron gathered around the supply closed entrance what they saw completely freaked them out. Revy was just there standing in front of all of them and staring at the ground. The mercenaries were confused by this and were about to shoot her but suddenly without warning she drew both of her cutlasses and shot the mercenaries in front of her dead without even looking at them. The other mercenaries were shocked at the speed in which she killed their comrades; they looked to be paralyzed by fear. Revy who at this time was still staring at the ground then creepily started to lift her head up slowly only to reveal that her eyes were now devoid of anything that resembled something with a soul. Her eyes looked dead and her pupils had completely disappeared leaving only deep amber irises which were coupled with a completely emotionless expression on her face.
The commanding officer of the mercenary group was getting irritated at his men just standing there and said: "What the fuck are you doing shoot that Bitch!" the mercenaries then did as they were told and opened fire on Revy. She then charged at them as fast as she could. She didn't even care that she was right in their line of fire. She took out the mercenaries one by one while at the same time she was getting shot. Bullets started ripping through Revy's body however she didn't seem to even notice. She no longer cared what happened to her all she wanted to do was avenger her friends. At this point the gunslinger known as Revy was dead and the only thing that remained was a blood thirsty beast called Two-hands. She kept on eviscerating her enemies with her sword cutlasses and moving like a jaguar hunting its prey. She was quick, powerful, and emotionless. She kept on killing and killing like she had never killed before it looked like scene strait out of a horror film.
After a while Revy had eventually killed all of the mercenaries however she was not doing so well. Her body had chunks of it torn off by the amount of bullets that hit her, she was absolutely covered in blood, and her vision was starting to blur. After noticing that she had murdered all of the people responsible for causing her such pain she fell to her knees and then fell sideways on the floor.
As her vision started to blur even more she takes out an old picture from the back pocket of her blood stained daisy dukes. She unfolds it with her thumb and it opens it is revealed to be a picture of the four of them Dutch, Benny, Rock, and Revy. The picture was taken a couple of years ago after the crew completed a high profile job for Balalaika. Revy then stares at the picture and reminisces about the moments they had as her vision starts to blur completely and she is no longer able to see. Knowing that her time is abruptly coming to an end she says: "not like this" in a voice that was tiered and struggling to speak. It sounded like her spirit had been broken completely. Revy new knew that she was one of the walking dead. She always seemed ready to face death without a second thought. This time however it was different. She thought she would be the only one to die when her time comes but that didn't happen today. She first had to suffer through seeing everything she cared about get taken away from her. She had to witness the only people she could consider to be family get shot right in front of her and despite how much she tried to get them out of there alive she was not able to do so. "No No not like this! It wasn't supposed to fucking end like this! This was supposed be a simple fucking job God Damnit!" she thought to herself as the pain of her loss and her physical injuries were starting to become too much for her to bear.
As Revy's thoughts shifted and rattled in her head she started to think about Rock, this caused bloody tears to pour from her face. She held his tie that she wrapped around her hand as hard as she could with all the strength she could muster. It was her way of saying she wants him back. The night was cold and she just wanted to feel his warmth one last time. She didn't want to be alone. Revy then took a few more breaths each shallower than the last desperately trying to gasp for air. Her struggle however was to no avail as she was starting to drown in her own blood; death was not being kind to her. She tried fighting as hard as she could but she eventually she succumbed to her own mortality and took her last breath as her body went limp.
End Credits Scene
As the end credits role and the song "Don't look behind" keeps playing. The credits suddenly stop and everything fades to black. Suddenly a digital alarm clock sitting on an end table appears on screen, it shows the time to be 6:59 am. The clock then flips to 7:00 am and the alarm goes off. A person's hand then appears to hit the snooze button and everything fades to black.
Author's notes: hey there I would like to thank you ever so much for reading my story and I would just like to clarify 3 things. First of if everyone seem a bit to chill about dying that is because the story takes place many years after Roberta's blood trail and everyone is in their 40s and Dutch is turning 60, this means that they have lived their lives and are not so apprehensive about dying especial considering stressful work they do and the fact that they already know they will die at some point. Secondly If the Revy's deaths scene or final fight seemed a bit short I did that on purpose. It up to you guys to imagine how bat shit crazy Revy would get If Rock died. Third if they crew seemed to die out of nowhere and really quickly that's because that is what happened in real life. Death is usually quick and there's no dramatic goodbyes and there's not really anytime to find out ever detail if you running for your life.
That be all thanks again and don't forget to review.
