CH 11: Death Race

Silang, Cavite

19:59

Jem was curious why the police force aren't showing up even though they were doing mess throughout every highway they come upon to. But that became clear to him when he saw a policeman swaying the curious crowd away from the highway. They don't wanna get involved with the whole thing.

"Hey Black." Jem called.

"That's a little bit too racist." Blackshot remarked.

"What do you mean?"

"You're calling me black? Tell me, have you consulted an opthalmologist lately? You can't distinguish white from black."

"Hey, I'm not calling you funny names and I don't need a specialist to check up on my eyes."

"Oh yeah? What is the color of my skin?"

"Do we really have to discuss about that?"

Higuit rolled her eyes as she listened at the argument of the two.

"Yeah, now tell me what is the color of my skin?"

"White. Happy?"

"Yeah. Next time, don't shorten my name to 'Black' or 'Shot'. It makes me feel like I'm a dog."

James and Nadine laughed at the matter.

"So, what do you want?"

"How many bad guys are behind us?"

"Well," Blackshot paused as he peeked at the scope of Eric's rifle. "We got four."

----

"How's Tinio?" Nomer asked the terrorist beside him.

"Dead."

"What?! Send Edith and Numeriano to the enemy's location. If they still managed to kill both of them, then I will be the one who will chase them until in the very end of the world."

----

"Oh crap. Two more SUVs coming up behind the four."

"What?! Well if Death Race is what they want, then that's what they'll get!!" Jem says as he stepped on to gas pedal even harder.

"Alright, I'm gonna need some more men over here." Blackshot says once more.

"In my years as a SecSpecialist, I've seen enough blood and death although I'm 14." Higuit says as she stood up and climbed on the back.

"Corps are really making me curious, why do they train young people to kill?" Jem asked.

"Not all of them. Electrolite Corp is a much more...different than the other corps out there."

"Yeah, which is why I'm not surprised why I am staring at a 14 year old kid holding a gun." Jem says in a humorous tone.

Jeth also climbed to the back section of the vehicle.

"Let me join you guys to kill these idiots." Jeth says.

As soon as the four SUVs closes in, both sides started to exchange fires.

Blackshot spotted a shooter at a nearby SUVs. He aimed at him and took them out. The others spotted their own targets and took them down also. The SUVs shifted position as another one came up. Blackshot decided to give all his best by firing endlessly. The others also did the same as they opened fire, setting the enemy vehicle on fire.

"One down, three to go!!" Blackshot screamed.

The SUV which they shot earlier came to the front again but the team knew that the passengers of the SUV were all dead so they all opened fire altogether, killing them.

"That's for Lloyd you pieces of $*#@!!" Jeth screamed.

The remaining two decided to bump them. As soon as the SUV came to a close, Eric decided to toss a grenade he inside.

He approached the nearing SUV's visor, punched it and tossed a grenade. The driver got scared and confused about what he should do. Even the one beside him didn't even know what to do so he swerved from left to right violently and crashed to a nearby beerhouse then exploded shortly after it hit the bar.

"Nice job Eric!!" Jeth screamed.

The last SUV came close. They all started to open fire at the team rapidly.

Blackshot pulled a nearby box which was filled with sound systems and hid beside it. The other three did what he did.

The terrorists rained some cats and bullets at the team as they tried their best to hit them. Blackshot decided to put his expertise on use to take these idiots out of the way.

Blackshot motioned Eric to give him a grenade which Eric gave without any hesitation. Blackshot cooked the grenade, opened the box and placed it inside. He pushed it towards the road below them.

The team immediately jumped back to the passenger tow to take cover. Blackshot didn't even bothered moving as he watched the box got ran over by the SUV. After a few seconds, the SUV exploded, blowing up and flipping the vehicle to 180 degrees.

"Haha!! Last two!!" Blackshot screamed as he watched the two SUVs came closer.

Edith and Numeriano were inside the two SUVs. They peeked at the team and decided to fire.

Edith's van came close to the van. She opened fire at anyone inside the back section only to be stopped by Blackshot who picked up a wrench and threw it at her forehead.

"Step aside, brother!! I'll handle this!" Higuit says as she aimed her pistol at Edith.

Blackshot stepped aside while Higuit took a shot, killing the terrorist.

"Too easy." Higuit says.

Blackshot ordered the team to fire at Edith's SUV at once. They set it on fire and destroyed it afterwards.

"Nice job kids!!" Jem screamed.

The last SUV came close to them. Blackshot was about to climb up when Jeth stopped him.

"Dude, you've been out there killing almost every enemy leaders you meet. I think you should calm down and relax for a sec. Let me handle this." Jeth says as he climbed up above the roof.

"What the hell is he gonna do?" Jem asked.

Jeth watched Numeriano's SUV as it sped near their van. Numeriano peeked again as he aimed his weapon but he suddenly caught the glimpse of Jeth watching from above. He aimed at Jeth while Jeth just grinned at him widely.

"You out of your mind, boy?!" Numeriano asked.

"Hell yeah!!" Jeth says as he stepped back to gain the perfect timing he needed to jump towards the roof of the SUV.

Jeth executed the jump. He clenched his fist in the midair and then landed on the SUV's roof. Upon landing, he punched the SUV's roof really hard that the impact he created disabled the SUV's engine, making it swerve uncontrollably.

Jeth jumped back to te van's back section as he dodge the enemy fire from the SUV. Jeth looked back and watched the SUV's terrorists tried to fire at them and escape at the same time desperately. But the SUV crashed to a tree and exploded.

"Hahaha!! Eat my dust!!" Jem screamed as he accelerated the van once more.
