Change Me

Chapter 2: A 'Lil Mind Fuck

[ Cody Jame's POV ]

Sa wakas nahuli ko rin 'tong kriminal na 'to. It just pissed the hell out of me how he gave us a hard time sa loob ng ilang taon. I must say, magaling sya. What I know about him were only the basics. I did some research and everything but I still barely know who Justin McCann really was. I always got scolded by my boss because of him. "You're a cop. Get your job done right!" yan ang palagi nyang pinapamukha sakin, kase wala raw akong mahagilap na impormasyon tungkol sa kumag nato 'di ko raw ginagawa ng tama ang trabaho ko. Holding this damn case was quite a challenge. The kid really liked pissing me off. Oh joys, ang saya ng buhay ko. Please note the sarcasm.

Kung pwede ko lang syang patayin agad, ginawa ko na sana nung mga panahong nahuli namin sya. But of course, we can't do that. We still have to know what's the reason behind all these women killings he does at kailangan ring mabigyan ng hustisya ang mga kawawang napatay nya. And yes, he only kills women, how odd.

"Ayun sya!" boses ng natatarantang reporter ang gumising sakin. Lahat ng taong nag-antay para masaksihan ang pagkakataon nato ay nagkagulo. All of 'em started to grab their phones to take pictures.

I rolled my eyes thinking how mad they were. He's not even a celebrity, why waste their time here?

Agad silang hinarangan ng mga assigned cops para sa kaligtasan nila. Agad na nagsalita ang mga reporters sa mga microphones nila. Phones and cameras aiming at Justin McCann. Well we can't blame them. This serial killer has always been a mystery to all of us. Bigla nalang syang nagpapakita at nawawala out of nowhere. God knows his ways. That's why kailangan pa namin syang patulugin kanina bago namin sya tuluyang mahuli. This piece of shit was really good at escaping. Alam rin ng Diyos kung anong idinulot ng pagkawalang-hiya nya sa mga tao rito. People would walk on empty streets with fear thinking that he might come out from nowhere. Women were scared as shit they couldn't even do some things without having people around them. Limitado ang nagagawa nila and of course they would complain. Believe me when tell you that McCann has caused a chaotic rally 'cause people want him dead. See his impact?

There he was, handcuffs securing his wrists to keep him from doing something stupid. Nakayuko itong naglalakad kasama ang mga pulis.

Kailangan namin syang i-transfer sa mas efficient na kulungan, na kung saan equipped ang mga facilities. We can't lose this guy again, we have to guard him as close as we could. Sirang-sira ang image namin bilang mga tagaprotekta ng mga tao dahil sa kanya, and I would never let that go any further.

Kung sa kanya nakatutok lahat ng mga cameras at phones, ganon rin ang mga baril namin.

Nakahinga lang ako ng maluwag nung naipasok na sya sa police car.

Malaki at malawak ang lupa dito. Huge enough to be occupied by at least hundreds of people. Sa may kaliwa ng mga tao matatagpuan ang four-lane highway and these people were literally like creating traffic. Sa may medyo kalayuan naman, makikita mo ang bangin. Nang lumapit ako 'ron kanina, nakita kong may kalaliman ito 'cause I couldn't see the bottom.

I couldn't still figure out what the fuck these people were doing here. They'll put their lives in trouble. They know damn well that Justin McCann was a psychopath.

I inwardly shrugged. Well, I can't blame them though. What's happening now was history.

[ Justin's POV ]

Ipinatong ng pulis ang isang kamay nya sa ulo ko para yumuko ako't pumasok sa loob ng sasakyan, the gun on his free hand pointing at my temple. Umupo ako with a sigh. Nakita kong umikot ang isa pang pulis sa harap ng sasakyan at dumeretso ito sa driver's seat.

Sa tingin ko may hinihintay pa sila kase 'di pa nito agad binuhay ang makina ng sasakyan. Ang isang pulis naman na panay bantay sa'kin ay 'di pa pumapasok sa loob, leaving the door open. I peeked ahead to what's behind him. Thankfully, what I saw was a huge white wall and a couple of police cars from afar. The car  we were using right now has dark tints so no one's definitely gonna witness what was about to happen.

I think it's time. Let's play a little clever mind fuck here.

I raised my eyebrows and stared at his shoe, not removing my gaze towards it but still observant. Nasubukan ko nang gawin ito noon and boy, believe me when I say it's effective.

Look at it you idiot, I thought. If this cop would fall for this shit of a trap, I swear he would regret.

That was the longest five seconds of my entire existence bago ko sya napasunod sa gusto kong mangyari. Yumuko sya para tingnan 'to. Never batted an eye, with an expert move I moved my knee upwards hardy, aiming his face. His head jerked upwards because of the hard contact, followed by a splash of blood from his cut. He went unconscious out of concussion. Most of his upper body landed inside the car seat, making him not visible from the outside.

Stupid ass.

Nakita ng pulis na nasa driver's seat ang buong pangyayari at agad itong umakmang hugutin ang baril nito but I was faster than this piece of shit. Before he could even do anything, I had already did kung ano mang kailangang gawin ko. Limitado ang galaw ko dahil nasa likod ko ang dalawa kong kamay, so lifted my butt up to slip my handcuffed wrists over it. Nang matapos kong mailusot ang mga paa ko rito, now my arms were in already front of me, agad ko itong siniko sa may panga. His head made a hard contact sa manobela but he quickly recovered and gained his composure. He got the chance to give me a blow on my jaw as well pero bago paman nya 'ko matamaan ulit ay siniko ko sya ulit but this time I made sure to hit his nose. He spat a loud fuck, wincing. Damn, the motherfucker was lucky I still couldn't punch him because of these fucking handcuffs.

As he was still wincing in pain, I took the chance to snatch his gun from it's rightful pocket at itinutok ito sa likurang bahagi ng ulo nya. Though he was visibly in pain, itinaas parin nito kaagad ang mga kamay nito sa ere. As what I could see in the rearview mirror, duguan na ang mukha nito. He have this deep cut on the side of his nose bridge. I hit him hard, boys. "Fuck you, McCann."

"Tch, dude 'di tayo talo," pang-iinis ko rito. I was satisfied to see his face reddened with anger. "Itapon mo ang susi ng handcuffs dito," utos ko. He immediately obeyed. Nakataas parin ang kaliwang kamay nito habang ang isa naman ang kumuha ng susi. Agad nito itong tinapon sa direksyon ko at itinaas ulit kanang kamay nito.

Nang makuha ko na ang gusto ko ay walang pagdadalawang isip kong inihampas ang baril sa may batok nito. I saw his body collapsed. These dipshits messed with the wrong devil, I tell you.

Agad kong kinuha ang susing itinapon nito sa dereksyon ko. As I was working my fingers, trying to shoot the key in the fucking keyhole, I heard the other cop grunt. Napasapo ito mukha nito kung saan ko sya tinuhod kanina. "Fuck." he hissed, examining the blood staining his hands. While he was still in a haze, tagumpay ko nang napakawalan ang mga kamay ko sa posas, clenching my fingers and feeling the freedom.

Those handcuffs were literally killing me. Handcuffs ang pinaka ayaw kong bagay sa buong mundo and I would kill just to get rid of that bullshit.

No one knows whats happening inside the car. Blame it on them. Tinted pa kase ginamit nila. Siguro nga nagtataka na sila kung bakit 'di pa kami nakakalarga.

I grabbed the cop's hair at pilit itong ipinatingin sa'kin, my gun pointing at his temple. "If I were you, hindi na sana ako gumising." bulong ko sa kanya.

With a simple nudge using the gun, we went outside, causing the world to gape at us.
