The 'SINNERS'

6

Martinez crumpled to the ground, his world spinning in agony. As he looked up, he saw Kalix standing over him, a mixture of anger and concern on his face.

"Maya, stop! You're going too far!" Kalix shouted, but Maya just laughed, her eyes gleaming with a sadistic light.

"You're so gullible, Martinez," she sneered. "You think you can take on The Sinners alone? You're just a pawn in their game, and now you're a liability."

Martinez's vision began to blur, but he refused to give up. He remembered the voice in his head, the plea for help. He knew he had to keep fighting.

With a surge of adrenaline, Martinez lunged at Maya, but she was too quick. She delivered a swift kick to his stomach, and Martinez doubled over in pain.

As he lay there, helpless, Maya leaned in close. "You should have stayed out of this, Attorney. Now, you'll never leave this place alive..."

Suddenly, Kalix intervened, grabbing Maya's arm. "Enough! We're not going to kill him... yet."

Martinez looked up, hope flickering in his chest...

Martinez slowly got his senses back, as he was able to hear a bunch of noises that surrounded him, when he opened his eyes completely, his vision blurred, and was seated in the chairs and was chained with it.

"So you're finally awake, huh?" Kalix asked
He turned but was surprised to see Kalix beside him in the same condition, "what the hell? What're you doing here?"
He saw him "I am surprised, I thought you'd cry in pain once you woke up,"
"I.. I can still feel my.. balls" in a low voice
"Must be painful!" Kalix nodded pitifully...

Soon "alright boys enough of the conversation, we shall begin, now--" Maya's words were sweet, she turned to the crowd yelling shall we begin the ritual"

The crowd hailed in joy, Maya turned and went near to Kalix and Martinez "Well why don't you beg to your knees in your final moments"

"Like I would ever do that!" Kalix fired back
Martinez said "I am fed up with it, why do I meet up with freaks like you from the morning" with a pissed look

"Well, then--" Maya turned to the crowd and cried aloud "the traitors of the cult are now chained in these chairs... Let everyone know that if someone betrays the cult their punishment is:..... Death"

"When did I ever get into this cult?" Martinez asked
"As long as you have the tattoo carved, you're one of them, and I just randomly chose this symbol cause it looked cool, now I ended up in a situation where I have no idea of what's going on..." Kalix saw him "you should have given a second thought before you call someone Mr. Attorney"
"Well, Sorry about that Mr. Jace"

And the ritual was about to begin... A man with a heavy and giant axe appeared and stood behind Martinez and kept the tip of the sharp side in his neck and only an inch away, "such a dangerous toy you have there!!" Martinez turned,

Maya gave an ominous smile and in a second it vanished, she yelled "let them... Pay......"
