《Lucid Dream》Chapter 3: Famous people have famous people problem
Advertisement
As I was crossing an intersection, a truck ignored the red light and ran straight into my car, flipping it over. Out of nowhere, 4 black sedans blocked off the intersection and fully armed men streamed out of them. It was at this moment I knew shit just hit the fan.
Sitting in the overturned car, I pondered about life, the world, the universe and ultimately why the fuck someone tried to kill me twice in a single day as I watched them set up position around me. To be honest, I felt it was a bit overkill for a single guy.
Let see, uncle usually had some hot stuffs in his car. I reached for the compartment and found a fully loaded Glock 18, 2 mags, a military knife, and a retractable baton. This will do.
I counted 16 men, 4 were keeping watch at the rear, 1 was slowly closing in on me and the rest were pointing their muzzle at me cautiously behind cover. Damn, it looked like they knew what happened at the parking lot. I decided that I had seen enough.
I put a bullet in the approaching guy head, kicked open the door and rolled out as fast as I could while firing at the guys that have an angle on me. 2 went down and the rest immediately opened fire. I went on all four and sprinted in an zig zag pattern toward the first downed guy. I noticed he had a ultility belt loaded with throwable previously. So I quickly grabbed that, chugged a frag grenade at the car infront of me, chugged a smoke at my car and dived back into cover. Just to be safe, I threw another frag.
"Well, careful was never enough" I told mysef as I noticed one bad guy running for his life when the grenade landed near him. Too late though. Kaboom!

Now that my beautiful ass was freed of enemy, I started to moved backward using the smoke as cover because the same thing might happen to me.
As soon as I peaked out of the smoke, an intense sense of danger hit me harder than a speeding truck ( hah! The irony). It was not some bullshit sixth sense in those Wuxia novel, mind you. What I heard was the sound of a bullet tearing through the air picked up by my extremely sensitive superhuman ears.
I moved my head barely out of harm way as the sub-sonic hot lead swished past. The trajectory guided me to a sniper on one of the roof top.
Dude! A sniper? Really? Even Superman may cry if you bullied him like this.
"Well, there goes my plan of running as fast as possible. They must get very close now" I sighed heavily, knowing that it was fight or die at this point.
Previously, I noticed the enemies had not got an angle on me yet, which means they were still infront of my cover.
A imaginary light bulb suddenly blinked on my head.
Without further ado, I pushed the suprisingly heavy sport car straight into enemy line until I heard satisfying crunch of crushed bones and screams for their mommy.
When you didn't feel like playing by the rules, just flip the table, or in this case a car, am I right?
While my opponents got distracted by the gruesome sence, I peeked out and popped a few heads. I also did a quick headcount. My impromtu ram took out 3, my jiggle peek took down another 2, which cut the number by almost half.
The bad news was I got myself within arm reach of the rest, bad for the bastards that was.

Have you seen John Wick? Have you heard of Gun-fu? Well, I can't do any of that. What I can do, however, was moving so quick that my enemies can only spin around like dumb kids in a toy store as I took them out one by one. The chaos also prevented the sniper from taking cheap shot at me
Eventually, I picked up a rifle, shoved it into the last unlucky guy mouth then pulled the trigger. When I looked up, that damn sniper had already fled the sence. Bitch, I remembered your face, just you wait.
*Ring Ring*
Ah! What a miracle! My phone survived through all this. Legendary Nokia indeed, I should've use this as a weapon.
Anyway, I answered the phone.
"Yes mother?... I'm sorry. I ran into an accident on my way home. Hmm?... No, I'm fine. Some unlucky dude got ran over by a truck. I'm helping him to the hospital right now... Yes, go ahead. Have a safe trip. Bye. Love you mom"
Fewww, I managed to bullshit my way through. I should also give second uncle a call while I was at it. Let's get to somewhere else first though, and get rid of all this blood. Fortunately, I alter my face or I would be in deep shit sooner or later.
*Ring ring*
"Yo, second uncle, guess what happen?... No, I did not crash your car... ok, ok, I did wreck your car a bit but it was not my fault, here's what happened... *5 minutes later*... Yes, send the clean up crew please"
*Ring Ring*
"Hey, buddy, how's it going? Life's good, eh?... What do I want? Nothing serious, someone want to hit on me twice in a day, I never knew I was that popular... Yes, they do have some gut... So here's the deal, I want to know who, where, and why... C'mon, we are friends right? Friends don't talk about money... How about a discount?... No? Okay then, just send the bill to my uncle... 3 days? Cool, let's have a drink sometimes. Bye"
Stingy bastard! Information brokers were all pompous cunts.

Shadows in the Dawn Mist
[participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] - Winner November 2020 When a young woman is lured back to her homeland for the opportunity of a life time, she must face old fears. But never would she think that facing up to her past would change everything. Is History written by the victors, or by someone or something else...? *** I started writing this a few years ago and eventually fell out of love with it. I never finished it and my newer books are being written in different writing style, and genre with a more planned process. I decided to revisit it for the writathon and found that it wasn't as hopeless as I'd come to think. Hopefully, I've improved as a writer since them so the consistency may vary. Its been good to revisit and analyse my writing which I feel used to have some clunky and obvious dialogue which I'm trying to fix. This will always be my first novel and I hope, with a little exposure, I may come to like it again. Thanks for reading!

Unfettered Spear
[Ratata~] Being showered with bullets from all directions, I certainly don't feel so good. Especially, feeling the bullets passing through my body, which is simply torture. After God knows how long, the gunfire finally stopped. I had my head down, contemplating that this was the end. However, it was at this time that I heard someone jumping off the car in front. I looked up and saw that it was the "Boss." "I should've done this much sooner, you really done a number on my men despite being alone!" "I must admit that you are good, but too good that you're a threat to MY throne!!" "I–" Alas, the Boss' monologue was cut halfway through. When he held his head high, an action to signify his pride, a bullet pierced through his under chin into his brain and out the back of his head. He looked at me in disbelief, like the others around. None of them anticipated that I could still fire my pistol, much less accurately aiming at one's head at the hip level, after being turned into a bloody meat-sieve. "You... Monster!!!" To the Boss' dying words, I only replied with a smile as my strength left my body.
