The man pulled the trigger and out came the big bullet that was gonna hit Leon, Fortunately; Leon crouched down covering his head. The bullet missing him by two inches when he started to crouch. 'Holy shit! Guy wasn't kidding.' Leon thought.

The man was firing all of his bullets, however none of them seem to caught Leon when he just kept dodging all of them.

Leon was running towards the man, he was going to grapple the man and press on to his adam's apple so he wouldn't be able to breathe right. Causing him to let go of the gun he was holding. The man had only one bullet left in his magazine, His disadvantage, But he did had an advantage; a clear shot at Leon. Once Leon was a few feet away from the man, he managed to jump and grab the man while a bullet went into his stomach.

Although, Leon had only grunted and felt a big painful sting on his stomach. It wasn't fatal or anything to him. Once the pain quickly went away, Leon pressed his middle knuckle on the man's throat; causing him to gasp for air. Unable to breathe easily, the man couldn't aim at Leon correctly causing him to drop the gun.

Leon quickly grabbed the gun the man was using, and decided to pull out one of his own gun out of his left pocket. Now having two, Leon aimed for the man.

"Whew, you almost gave me a deadly haircut back there." Leon was pretty relieved he didn't get shot in the head. Pain wasn't exactly his thing, especially in certain areas if you know what I mean.

"Come on! Do what you want to do, kill me!" The man yelled out, asking Leon to kill him. "Kill you?" Leon asked.

"Yeah kill me! You're the badass, so what are you waiting for?" The man really wanted to be killed.

"Sorry, but I'd rather not..." Leon took his own gun back into his left pocket, leaving it holstered. The man seemed relieved but disappointed at the same time. Leon hold out his left hand so The man can get up off his ass. The man got up all by himself without needing Leon's help. The man looked very furious now. "Here's your gun." When Leon offered to give The man's gun back, he just snatched it away from Leon. Not doing anything after that.

The man turned around so he couldn't see Leon. Leon tried to get a close up on him, seeing if the man was alright, even though he tried to kill Leon.

"Sooo, what got you angry this morning?" Leon asked, he didn't get a response

Leon wanted to try again. "Uhh hey I was just asking-"

"Okay! I got you the first time, you didn't have to say it again!" Leon jumped in surprise that the man yelled when he interrupted his sentence. "I'm fucking angry because I couldn't kill a normal person like you that didn't even try to defeat me at all!"

The man punched the sand with his hand in frustration, Leon not knowing what he meant went to ask another question. "What do you mean? What were you trying to prove by killing someone?" The man got up and turned towards Leon, not so angry unlike before.

"So I can prepare for something, just some simple practice if you weren't gonna leave."

Leon confused about the part where the man was preparing for something..

'Something...' Leon thought.

"Preparing for?" Asked Leon. "None of your damn business, if you want to know more, then don't bother. I don't need people screwing up my plans. Especially you."

Leon knew that it was gonna take a lot more than that to talk out of this guy for some information. So he dismissed that, but Leon wasn't done with the man just yet.

"Fine... How bout a little guessing game just for you..." Leon said.

"A guessing game? Hah! You're serious? You're just wasting your ti-" The man looked at Leon dumb looking, he noticed that Leon was holding a similar thing that he saw before.

"Ahhh, So you do know what this thing is? Want to tell me what it is?" Leon got him now, he was sure the man was gonna tell him.

"You...Y-ou killed her... GRRGH! Son of a bitch I was gonna kill her first! Why you.."

The man was just about to pull out his gun enraged.

"Calm the fuck down, who the hell is this "she" you're talking about? I only found this horn in the streets." Leon said holding up his arms while holding the horn so the man won't shoot him to death.

"You're lying!" The man yelled out

"If I was lying, then I wouldn't ask where this horn came from." Leon said. Somehow the man got the point as he pulled down his gun.

"You really don't know who she is?" Asked by the man.

"No..." Leon replied with a simple answer.

"Well fuck...That bitch's name is Lucy, she's the one that took my eyes and arm." The man pointed at his right arm then to his eyes. "I don't know how you got that horn, but something tells me that bitch is still alive. I can feel it..."

Leon wanted to know more about this "Lucy". What was she? Who was she? Where was she? So many questions unanswered. "Any idea what she looked like?" Leon asked.

"She has horns like what you have in your hand, then she had pink-reddish hair with those red bloodshot eyes... That's all I know..." Leon felt like that was all the man had to offer so he was gonna go leave as that's all he needed from the man.

"Thanks, all I needed to know..." Leon turned around and started to head to the alley until he heard the man's voice again. "Hold on! If you ever see that bitch, then tell me Bando, where she is so I can kill her with my own bare hands!" Leon now knowing the man's real name was Bando.

"Will do...I'm sure we'll meet again." Once Leon said his goodbyes, he headed to his place to rest and to check up on his wound. The walk from the beach to the alley didn't felt that long to Leon. Once he was there he started to take a look on the wound.

The big bullet was inside so Leon had to take it out. Nice and easy he managed to take it out. The bullet was all bloody.

"Looks like I'm gonna have find something to cover this wound up before people will start to notice" Leon layed down on his matt; something that had been here ever since he lived in the alley. Wondering, he kept on doing that until he had fallen asleep.

Somewhere else, Leon was on a bridge looking at a large group of soldiers. They had their weapons loaded and they were ready to kill Leon. "READY!" The soldiers were now aiming at Leon. There was nothing he could do about it. "FIRE!" Burst full of gunshots came upon Leon and all he could see was darkness...


Leon was now at the same alley he slept in. He checked his surroundings, started doing reality checks to see if he was really awake. 'Yup, it was a dream..' He said in his thoughts. He got up on his feet, started to do a few stretches. Then there came a noise...

, a noise below that of a bark coming from a dog. Leon now noticed that there was a little creature biting his black jeans. It was actually a puppy, a small one infact with white fur and black spots around.

Leon grabbed the puppy with both hands, he noticed that the puppy was smiling at him. Seemed pretty happy when touched by Leon.

"Now where did you come from little guy?" Leon said asking the puppy with some baby talk. Leon checked his or her's neck. No collar. Finding out it's a he, Leon doesn't know what's he gonna do with him. "Hmmm, not really good with names, so I guess I'm gonna have to call you puppy for now.. Hope you like it."

"Bark! Bark!" Coming from Puppy he seemed to have liked the name. Really?

Leon carried Puppy with his right arm, as they were gonna go to a market were they can buy some food.


(Where will our heroes go to next after the market? Next time on ROTK, Leon and Puppy meet some people who could lead to Lucy's whereabouts. Stay tuned on next Saturday!)
