Love Struck
Chapter 136 - Raptor The Hedgehog
Raptor's POV
"Ten down." I thought to myself.
Or maybe it was eleven.
I sat at the bar with my head down in a mixture of happiness and sadness. Two feelings that normally shouldn't be together at all. They battled over my control and to be honest I was hoping nether would win.
"Another?" Asked the bartender as he saw my state.
I nodded my head and after a few seconds I felt the can hit my hand.
"Th…anks." I said as best as I could as I opened it.
The bartender nodded and watched as I chugged it down.
"Crush!"
The can fell in my hand as I crushed it with what was left of my energy and as I waited for him to ask if I wanted another my phone went off.
"Ring! Ring! Ring!"
Most who still watched me saw I didn't care.
"You going to answer it? It could be important." Stated the bartender as I debated.
"Ring! Ring! Rin…!" I grabbed it off my side and pressed it against my ear while nodding for another beer.
"He…llo?" I answered in a destroyed tone from all the alcohol.
"Raptor it's Hannon, where are you? We have to talk." He stated as I opened the can.
"Why do you want to talk? There's nothing to talk about." I stated as I now drank the beer.
Hannon listened as I drank and after he heard me exhale he asked.
"Are you drinking?"
"So what if I am?!" I asked in anger as people watched.
"I don't want you to hurt yourself if your out alone, just tell me where you are so I can send Carver out to get you." Begged Hannon.
"Fuck Carver whoever that is, I'm fucking fine Hannon!" I screamed.
"How many have you had?" Asked Hannon as I lowered my head nearly dropping the cell phone.
"I think about twelve or thirteen." I replied while trying not to puke.
"Jesus Raptor! I'm sending a squad out to get you!" Stated Hannon in shock.
"I said I'm fine!" I shouted.
"Your not! Your drunk and you just killed Carter! I can't have a…!" I cut him off.
"A loose cannon out on the streets!?"
Hannon went silent as I continued.
"Go fuck yourself Hannon! When I say I'm fine, I fucking mean it! Goodbye!"
"Wait Raptor…!"
I hung up the phone and put it back in my pants as the bartender asked.
"Another?"
This time I said no and got up from the counter.
"Bathroom?" I asked.
"On the left." Replied the bartender as I began to walk towards it.
People watched me and as I entered I heard someone enter behind me.
Immediately I went to the urinal and began to let out the cans of beers.
As I peed I saw somebody eyeing me. Well I didn't see them but I felt them. Like as if their eyes were burning my skull.
As soon as I was done I zipped my pants and made my way to the exit.
Again I was being watched by people in the bar and quickly I went for the door.
"Wait you have to pay…!" The bartender tried to say as I shut the door.
The streets were pitch black now and the second I began to walk I saw a rebellion Humvee drive by.
I stared at it thinking it was for me but I soon saw the flag it carried.
It was white. It means someone died and they were transporting the body back to base.
Quickly I pushed forward into the city and I tried not to fall as I made my way down the streets.
I was approaching an alley when out of nowhere I was grabbed from behind.
"Ughhh!" I grunted as the man sent me to the ground.
Quickly I got up and swung to have him duck and send a hook into my cheek.
"Smack!"
My head twisted at the blow and blood flew out as I stumbled back into another man who caught me in his arms.
I couldn't make out who was attacking me from all the alcohol and soon enough I made out another man then another.
Four on one isn't going to end well.
I tried to break free but was unable as the men began to beat me to death. Hooks and jabs dented my body and left me with black eyes and broken ribs as I was finally sent to the ground amongst my blood and trash.
I couldn't do anything to help myself as the men began to steal my stuff.
I felt my armor being ripped off as my phone and almost everything else was taken away.
Soon I was left in the trash and I listened as the men ran away leaving me there in utter pain and sadness.
Even though I wanted revenge I couldn't get it if I wanted. They got me at the perfect time and all I wanted to do was sleep.
Gently I shut my eyes letting myself drift into the garbage around me.
I'm Not having a good time with my family so if I don't post for a bit don't be like he's done! I will post somehow so don't worry. I just hate my mother and father.
