CHAPTER 14: Z!

Alessandros POV;

"Vedi quella scatola nel mezzo? Questo è immagazzinare il rubino!" (See that box in the middle? That is storing the ruby!)

James pointed at the box storing the ruby as he looked at me excitedly.

"Questi ragazzi dell'Interpol non si sono impegnati molto per la sicurezza. Tch, sopravvalutandosi." (These guys from the interpol really didn't didn't put much effort into security. Tch, over-estimating themselves.)

I smirked while observing the lax security. It seems the only problem we may face tonight is going to be Xander Torsney and his men!

"Mettiti al tuo posto! È ora di divertirti. Attacca!" ("Get in your positions! It's time to have some fun. Attack!")

I went straight for those guarding the ruby, and it seems I'm not the only one who had that idea.

"We haven't had a fight for quite some time eh? Shall we?" I looked towards my front where stood Xander Torsney.

"Sure, why not?" He raised a brow at me provocatively. "Z, get the diamond."

Only now did I realise there was someone behind Torsney, dressed quite....uniquely!

I don't think I've ever seen him before, and he was quite short, for a man. Couldn't be a woman right?

I wondered while defending the punch Torsney threw my way. These kinda fights, we never use weapons. It's a fight of fists!

Hmm..it seems he's gotten stronger than when we last fought. Ha, the more challenging I guess!

I licked my slips as I gave Torsney a right uppercut, too fast for him to dodge, landing straight on his jaw. Oo..that's gonna hurt!

Our fight went on for what felt like ages, one of us taunting the other once in a while. I still won in the end, but both of us were badly battered and bloody.

"Good fight." I said while looking at Torsney. He had a broken jaw, some broken ribs and blood was oozing down his forehead and lips. I wasn't much different really, not that I would show any weakness in front of the enemy.

"Too bad, even if you won the fight, you lost the ruby! More blood dripped down his jaw as he smirked.

I narrowed my eyes as I looked to where the diamond was. It was empty, but looking at the two figures fighting nearby, I could spot the diamond in the hands of the same guy I saw behind Torsney before, dressed fully in black not even letting his face be seen!

Definitely a guy, a woman can't fight like that. He had already finished dealing with James by the time I could run towards them.

I ran towards the escaping figure, moving past the bloody bodies, only to lose him halfway.

"F**k! F**k!!" I growled out loudly. This is the first time I experienced a loss, and it will be the last.

I looked back to see the fight had ended, other than those from the interpol, in seems nobody else at least lost their lives, despite losing a hand or two.

It seems Torsney and his men had already escaped as well.

The little bastard had ruined my plans. What did Torsney call him again.. Z! That's right..Z!

It seems I need to do some background checks after going back.
