Destiny

14

Adam arrived in the fighting ring. He looked at the skybox where Zangar and The bounty Hunters were sitting. Everyone had their eyes fixed on him except Zangar’s daughter Isabella. She gave him an unconcerned look.

   Adam walked to the center of the ring and stood there face to face with the beast. He looked like a child in front of him. Beast spat at Adam’s feet and smiled wickedly.

     ‘You could have chosen an easy death but you came here for a painful and unforgiving death. You can either be stupid or very brave but it doesn’t matter now. The only thing that matters now is me ripping our head off.’  Beast said this giving him a disgusted look. Adam gave a sarcastic smile looking at the ground and then looked up in his eyes. ‘Let’s see if you can kill me or you die at my hands’ said Adam.

   Adam took his position. He was ready to attack. Beast also took his position.

  Adam lost his memory but Kung Fu that he learned was in his veins running like blood. He even forgot his name but he didn’t forget his skill.

   Beast ran towards Adam and tried to grab him but Adam quickly moved to his side. Beast turned and again ran towards Adam. Adam very easily saved himself and s*****d him on his a*s.

  The audience went crazy seeing this and they were laughing and cheering for Adam. Isabella also laughed seeing this.

  Beast yelled at Adam, ‘I will kill you.’ ‘You can surely try,’ Adam said this laughing. Beast picked his sword from the ground and ran towards Adam. He attacked with a sword. Adam smoothly and with ease moved backward and saved himself. He continuously started attacking Adam. Adam was dodging his every move very easily. This made Beast furious. He screamed with anger.

   ‘Big guy, what happened? Are you tired? Aren’t you going to make me beg for death?’ Adam mocked him.

  Isabella was now watching the match with interest. At first, she thought that Adam won’t last a minute but Adam was very easily dodging Beasts moves. Adam looked like he was playing with him. The crowd was also cheering for Adam. Zangar was also relaxed now. He was right about Adam being a warrior.

Beast hit the ground with the sword 3 or 4 times and again attacked Adam. Adam again saved himself easily and moved to one side. Adam picked up a sword from the ground and signaled the Beast with his hand asking him to attack. Beast was groaning and breathing heavily. Beast kicked the head of Eltango that was lying on the ground in front of him and ran towards Adam. Adam was ready for him. He dodged him easily and this time smacked him with the sword on his a*s.

    The audience went crazy by watching this. The Beast created in the hearts of the audience with his first match was all wiped away.

   Beast yelled, ‘you are a little puny insect. I am going to crush you now with my bare hands.’ He threw his sword on the floor. Adam also threw his sword on the floor and said, ‘Okay, fulfill your wish kid.’

   The beast closed his fist and tried to hit Adam with a punch. Adam also punched. Their fists collided with each other and a loud sound of c***k echoed in the arena.

    The audience quietened and then a bellow of agony and pain echoed in the arena. Beast sat down on the ground screaming and holding his right hand with his left arm. His right arm looked like it was boneless. The blow from Adam’s fist broke all the bones in his arm. He was screaming crazily. Adam was standing at his place straight.

     Everyone was shocked to see such a display of strength by Adam. Isabella and everyone else stood up from their chairs. They were not able to believe their eyes, a small man with the strength of a mountain.

    Beast was still screaming with pain. He looked at Adam with anger. He yelled at Adam. He was trembling with fury and agony. ‘I will kill you. I will destroy you now…’ Adam interrupted and said, ‘you still think you can kill me. You wanted me to beg for death right. Now I am going to make you beg for your death.’ Adam picked a sword from the ground and threw it towards him and yelled at him, ‘pick it up and show me what you have got.’ Adam was also angry now.

   Beast picked up the sword from the ground and charged towards Adam. He raised his sword and attacked Adam. Adam grabbed the sword with his bare hand and punched the sword with his other hand.  The sword snapped in the middle and broke into two pieces.

   Adam threw the piece of the sword he was holding in his hand on the ground and grabbed the beast’s hand. He kicked Beast on his knee and he fell on the ground. He was holding his hand with both of his hands. Adam twisted Beast’s hand and cut his face with the sword in his hand. He slowly pierced the sword through his left cheek and it came out from the right cheek. Beast was screaming with pain. Adam released his hand.

   Beast pulled the sword out of his check screaming in pain. He was screaming very loudly. His face was covered in blood.

   The audience was watching this silently. They saw Beasts brutality but this something else. It was vicious. Isabella was enjoying this. She likes this sport and for the first time, she was seeing someone so thirsty for blood.

     Adam was looking around in the ring looking for some weapon to use. He saw a mallet in a weapon stand. He picked it up from there and went near the beast. Adam kicked him hard on the belly. He fell down on his back. Adam stepped on his left hand and lifted the mallet high and slammed it right on the beast’s arm. The beast let out a loud cry. He again lifted it and slammed it on his elbow joint.

   Both of his arms were now useless. He was writhing in agony on the ground. Adam spat on him and said, ‘I don’t like bullies.’ The words struck him. He remembered those words. He was trying hard to remember his past where he said those. His head started to hurt. He sat down on holding his head with both of his hands. His head was hurting very badly. He was trying hard to remember his past but it just made him hurt more. He screamed and stood up.

  Adam picked the mallet that fell from his hand and started striking Beast’s legs with that mallet. He was continuously smashing it on his legs. He was muttering while smashing his legs with the mallet. “I told you I don’t like bullies. You wanted to kill me. Kill me get up. Come on, get up, and kill me.” He screamed, ‘Come on.”

    He stopped hitting him. He rested the mallet on the ground. Adam was breathing heavily. He again picked the mallet and went near Beast’s head and stood there with the mallet over his shoulder.

   ‘Please beg me for mercy and I might spare you. Beg me,’ Adam yelled at him. Beast was not able to say anything. He was whimpering on the ground. He was not able to say anything. He was suffering.

   Adam again shouted his name and said, ‘Ask me for mercy and I might forgive you. Ask me.’ Saying this he lifted the mallet high in the air and then smashed it on Beast’s head. Adam killed him.

   The audience was silent. There was pin-drop silence in the arena. Adam looked around when he came to his senses. He looked at the body of Beast that was lying in front of him. He again looked around and silently walked out of the ring.

    Adam went to the warriors’ room and closed the door behind him. He sat down on the ground. He just snapped in the ground and did all of this. He was scared of himself after seeing Beast’s body like this.

   He was asking himself the question who are you? Why you did this? What kind of monster you are? “I don’t like bullies” why did I say that? His mind was full of questions he wanted answers for.

  He was sitting on the ground thinking all of this when Zangar with his daughter and The Bounty Hunters entered inside the room. They all congratulated him on his win. Adam got up from the ground when he saw them.

  Isabella went near him and hugged him. She said to her father with joy, ‘father, I love my birthday gift. This is the best gift you have ever given me. I love you.’ She hugged her father after saying this.
