《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.
