Chapter 6: I fell to my knees with lost hope

Nigel was left sweating and completely shocked…he couldn't believe what he just saw. It had to be some sort of message…some kind of vision maybe. Otherwise, how else would he see his future self? Maybe he was just going crazy, from all of the stress and pressure. That might be it, just maybe… or it could be that Father was nearby and messing with his head. That had to be it, Nigel was keeping his head together until he came out into the open. When he was inside he was completely fine and as soon as he came out he got mentally tortured. But if Father was out here, where would he be?

Nigel quickly started looking around to try to see his demon Uncle. He quickly scanned the rooftops, the windows, the alleyways, anything that his Uncle could be hiding at. Where the hell is that bastard…? Nigel thought as he still scanned. Then he realized that he can also hide in the dark shadows anywhere, and he immediately started looking at every shadow there was within a mile of his vision. Nigel wasn't going to let his Uncle succeed in his own nephew's torture that would be completely pathetic. Besides, it was about time that Father got his ass kicked after showing them their fateful destiny. He need to finally learn a lesson or two, he did just kill some TND operatives a few months back and he is still continuing it today. Father had to be stopped and now…

Then out of the corner of his eye he saw something move in an alleyway next to the hospital. He immediately reacted and ran to his right where the alleyway was located. Currently, Nigel was on the rooftop of a five story hospital building, and it would be obviously suicide if he tried to jump off without any stops in the way. As long as he had a few "stops" in the way of his fall he would be fine as long as he held his balance. Next to the hospital Nigel noticed one of those metal staircases that slither up the sides of apartment buildings. (Like the really old ones that you see in movies at like…New York.) It was a good twenty foot drop but if Nigel was careful enough he could make it.

Nigel sprinted towards the edge of the rooftop even faster now with more confidence. He had to capture Father before he murders anybody else, and to also get revenge on him also. Then Nigel leapt off of the building, towards the staircase. The moment was like eternity, it felt like gravity would never pull him down. He looked towards the staircase as if he was trying to reach it. Then gravity finally came into play and his body started returning towards the Earth. Nigel noticed that he was going to make the jump, but then he saw something creepy. On the a rooftop not so far away a man with a blank trench coat and a black hat covering his entire face. The man seemed to be watching Nigel's every moves like he was spying on him to record data or just to watch him for fun. It was creepy any way around, but Nigel just set it aside and ignored it. He needed to focus all of his attention on making the jump.

His feet touched the staircase within seconds after he jumped. He smiled with achievement; he didn't fall down to a plummeting death. He worked his hand around the railing and then twisted his hips around towards the steps. He wasn't going to waste a second, he had to reach his Uncle in time. As soon as he had enough grip on the staircase he immediately began to sprint down the steps, one at a time. Of course, he had quick feet so it didn't matter if he even did two steps at a time; he already was already fast enough.

Nigel's eyes were set right on the moving shadow, nothing else would distract him; not even the man on the other roof. He was determined to capture his Uncle once and for all to end all of the misery and hate. He was still running down the stairs as fast as he could ever, he wouldn't stop either until he reached the very bottom. Then he noticed that the drop from where he was standing was only about ten feet, and his Uncle would be there I n a matter of seconds.

If I jump from that height and jump onto Father, I could overpower him from there… Nigel thought as he was about ready to make his move. It was the only way he could win right now, if he tried to get onto ground and then chase after him Father would just simply ditch him. Nigel had to do something unexpected, and that's what he is going to do.

Nigel ran down the stairs faster now, and he knew it was going to be risky in doing his jump. He had to try though, he had to otherwise there was something telling him that something devastating would happen. He threw those thoughts aside as he saw that he was all set up to make his move. He jumped onto the railing with ease, and then pushed himself forward, directly at his Uncle. His Uncle looked astonished at the sudden move, he wasn't expecting Nigel to think so quickly.

Nigel couldn't help but to grin at his success as he brought Father down to the ground. Nigel noticed that Father wasn't actually in his shadow suit, actually he hasn't been lately. He just was in his regular human form, he didn't have his glasses anymore and he wore more casual clothing; the regular jeans and a T-shirt combo. His hair was in a different style also, he had brown bangs now covering his dark green eyes and it was more wild. It was more in style today.

Father crashed into the ground with a loud thump. Both relatives gritted their teeth in pain as the impact spread through them. Nigel did just jump ten feet and fell right onto his Uncle, it obviously had to hurt.

"Damn you." Father said as he struggled beneath his nephew. For once he was struggling, he was always overpowering people with his strength, but this time the places switched around.

"Yeah, keep talking." Nigel said coldly. "It won't get a bastard like you anywhere." Nigel was actually quite proud of himself on the inside. He actually had caught Father without breaking a sweat. He could have broken his neck if he didn't make the two jumps, but he didn't. He finally succeeded with ease.

Nigel got up off of Father very cautiously; he grasped his wrists as he stood up and kept one foot on his back, stabling him. Father tried to hold his anger, he didn't want to start up something and then just get defeated. He had to think through the situation; he's in an alleyway sometime in the afternoon, Nigel is on top of him holding his wrists behind his back while standing one foot on him. There has to be a flaw, and Father quickly found it. His legs weren't being hold in anyway, they were completely free.

Dumb ass… Father thought as he started to see the scene in his mind. It was perfect, there's no way that Nigel would be able to overpower him from where he would be in a matter of seconds. Father grinned with delight from underneath his nephew, he couldn't hold it in. Nigel's eye's widened as he started to hear a faint laugh creeping up from Father's throat. It was menacing, his laugh just meant that he was about to do something to hurt or even kill Nigel, and he knew this.

"What's so funny?" Nigel asked lowly. He had to keep calm; if he started to get angry he would just make things worse. It was bad enough that Father was laughing while he was caught. Nigel felt a chill stream down his spine, it was a feeling that he didn't want to feel at the moment. It means something was about to happen, something bad for him.

What the hell is going on? I felt like I finally caught him, but now that feeling just suddenly disappeared… Nigel thought as a bead of sweat rolled down his face.

"Your so naïve Nigel, you think that you can beat me that easily?" Father said manically. His dark green eyes reflected off of the fading sunlight, and Nigel just stood there completely frozen. He was completely overtaken by his Uncle's menacing glare and laugh. It just got to him like the time when he tried to prevent the death of one of his comrades and failed, Father just glared at him and laughed just like he is now.

Then Father finally made his move after a long tension between them. He kicked Nigel in the middle of his back and forced him forward, releasing Nigel's grasp from his wrists. Nigel fell forward completely shocked, he forgot his legs. Then Father threw his head back crashing into Nigel's throat. He completely lost his breath as his eye's widened to show his pain and shock. He fell backwards as Father swiftly got up from under Nigel's falling body.

Damn it…I have to get him. Nigel thought as he tried to figure out a way to get him. Nigel's body just suddenly reacted without knowing it. He rotated his hips around and threw his hands onto the pavement below him. Father got up stunned at his nephew's quick reaction and how he handled the situation. It was quite impressive on what he used to be. Nigel's eyes glared up towards his Uncle as he tossed his legs into mid-air and swung around and kicked Father. Father blocked it though, and then jumped back. He had to make sure he gained enough distance from his nephew to see the situation.

Nigel then got back onto his feet quickly and without difficulty, still looking at his Uncle. He then sprinted forward without hesitation with his fighting techniques at the ready. Father also got ready as he saw his nephew's sudden move. Nigel drew back his hand ready to finish off his Uncle, anger seared through his eyes as he threw it forward. Father easily blocked it and then tried to punch with the other hand.

Nigel ducked as the punch missed his head by inches, Father looked downwards with defeat. Then he caught Nigel letting go of his left hand and swinging his legs at his Uncle's feet. He tried to dodge it though, but he failed miserably as he fell backwards into Nigel's trap. He got up and pushed his Uncle forward into a wall in the alleyway, knocking the breath out of him also. Nigel gripped his Uncle's neck out of pure hatred and ferocity.

"So, you result to this?" Father said messing with Nigel's head. Nigel just kept glaring at him while grasping his Uncle's neck tighter and tighter trying to shut him up. Father urged out a cough trying to regain his breath. He managed to say one sentence, "Your growing up to become your future…" Nigel's eyes suddenly became darker and darker as he heard those dreadful words. He gritted his teeth with pain on the inside and hatred on the outside, and he punched his Uncle in the face as hard as he could.

"Shut the hell up." Nigel said with a low voice as he finished his punch. Father spat blood towards the ground, showing that Nigel was really serious about what he was doing. He actually couldn't believe it, Nigel was determined to kill him if it costs him his own life.

"These actions only shows that your just one step closer to becoming an assassin." Father said coldly. His dark green eyes looked up at Nigel's hazel ones, showing even more anger and hatred for him now. He smiled with delight from this; it'll just make him into what he doesn't want to be. Nigel stood there for a split second trying to clear his thoughts. That's when Father made his move. He punched Nigel firmly in the stomach, and then without hesitation he then punched him in the chin with the other hand throwing his head backwards. Nigel tore himself on the inside, he let Father have a chance and he completely took it in his own hands. Father didn't waste a second as he punched Nigel a third time in the chest and then another time in the throat.

He tried to breathe in some air, but it wouldn't come. Nigel was just making himself suffer even more by trying harder to, and he already was in enough pain already. Father then increased the pain as he grabbed his nephew's T-shirt and spun him around to crash him into the wall. Nigel coughed up blood as his Uncle did so, showing his utter defeat. Nigel's eyes lost their ferocity and viciousness as he looked up at his Uncle's. His Uncle's eyes showed triumph and victory along with an evil grin.

"So, where's your anger and bravery now?" Father asked grinning widely. His cold set of eyes stared at his nephew's trying to traumatize him, and it did. Nigel just looked down at the forsaken ground. He just completely failed with misery, he had a chance and he just completely threw it away pathetically. Father took advantage of this moment and leaned forward next to Nigel's ear. "This is why you will never be able to change who you are going to be…like it or not one day soon your going to be a killing machine that doesn't stop for anyone." Father grimly smiled as he backed away from Nigel letting him stay to rot. Then, Father suddenly disappeared leaving a depressed and angry Nigel in the streets…

A man in a black trench coat and a black hat stood on the top of a nearby building as he took in the scene that he just saw. Nobody knew who he was, why he was there, or what he was doing on a rooftop. All they knew was he was doing something suspicious, and he wouldn't tell what it was.

The man's cell phone began to ring and he quietly got it from his front pocket. His cold hands grasped it tightly making sure it doesn't fall. He placed his fingers between the keypad and the screen and swiftly flipped it open, allowing him to speak to the caller. He placed it next to his ear without any sound at all.

"Hello, master."

"Did you see Nigel Uno?"

"Yes, I just did."

"So, what do you think of him?"

"He is quite the teenager; I think that his future will definitely come true."

"That's what I thought. Then keep a close eye on him, okay Damien?"

"I definitely will, it will be fun to watch what he does next."

"Good, then we want him to join Chronos as soon as we get a chance."

"Of course, I'll begin surveillance again tomorrow."

"Good."

The other line hung up without hesitation, leaving a spy grinning as he put his phone away…
