THE MAFIA AND GANGSTER QUEEN

CHAPTER 03

Chapter 3: What a nonsense fight

Third Person's Point of View

Isang araw na ang nakalipas simula ng makarating sila Raven sa Pilipinas. Nakapag-pahinga na sila at wala na din ang kanilang 'jet-lag'. Si Raven naman ay unti-unti nading nawawala ang inis sa kanyang ama. 

"Hey sis are we really going to the gangster arena?" - tanong ni Keith sakanyang kapatid na si Raven. Raven just nod her head. Kapahon niya pa nagpla-planuhan na bibisita siya at ang kanyang grupo sa gangster arena ng Pilipinas. She wants to know what does the arena in this country looks like. If what arena is the best and who are the ones that are considered as the best here in this country.

Pagkatpos magtanong ni Keith ay wala nang nagsalita pa sa loob ng kotse hindi dahil takot sila kay Raven ay kundi dahil sobrang bilis ng pagpapatakbo nito at kulang nalang ay masuka sila kaya ayaw na nilang magsalita dahil baka anumang oras sumuka nalamng sila.

Ilang minuto lang ang nakalipas at nakarating na sila sa gangster arena. Raven parked her car on the remaining space pagkatapos ay sabay sabay silang lumabas mula sa kotse. Siniguro niyang nakalock ang sasakyan dahil mahirap na at baka manakwan pa sila.

"s**t akala ko mamatay ako sa sobrang bilis ng pagpapatakbo mo Raven!" - Jake exclaimed will he started to catch his breath. Hindi niya talaga kinakaya ang bilis ng pagpapatakbo ni Raven. 

"You race yet you can't handle my speed? Like what the f**k Jake?" - sarcastic na saad ni Raven at napatawa nalang si Keith nang makita ang pagasim ng timpla ng mukha ni Jake. 

"Let's go. Mukhang nagsisimula na sila" - Raven just said and she started walking towards the entrance. The five men who is with her followed her immediately. Bago sila makapasok ng arena ay humingi ang bouncer ng identification card. Agad na pinakita ni Raven ang isang gold card na mayroong pangalan ng kanilang grupo sa gitna. 

"B-B-bakit kayo nandito?" - nauutal na tanong ng bouncer at napairap nalang si Raven.

"Am I not allowed to visit the Arena even though I am the Queen?" - Malamig na saad ni Raven dahilan para mabigla ang bouncer at mapuno ng takot ang kanyang buong katawan. Dahil dito ay agad nalang siyang gumilid at hinayaang makapasok ang grupo ni Raven.

Nang makapasok na sila sa loob ng arena ay tumumbad sakanila ang nagsisigawang mga manonood.

"Split up. If you want to join any of the games you can" - saad ni Raven at nauna na siyang maglakad, iniwan niya na ang kanyang kapatid at ang kanyang gangmates dahil gusto niyang maghanap ng impormasyon at she also planning to join the fight. 

Habang naglalakad si Raven ay wala siyang paki-alam kung may nababanga siya. And suddenly she bumped into a man., the man immediately looked around to see who bumped into him but he did not see anyone. Para bang naglaho nalang ito ng parang bula. 

"Hey Cyrus are you alright?" - one of his friends asked him and he just nod his head but in the back of his mind he is cursing whoever bumped him already.

Samantala si Raven ay lumapit sa isa sa mga emcee ng lugar. Agad niya itong kweinelyuhan at pasimpleng isinandal sa pader

"I want to join a fight. Survival of the greatest if possible" - malamig na saad ni Raven, akmang aangal ang emcee ng biglang pinakita ng dalaga ang kanyang identification card.

"Y-yes Q-queen" - nauutal na saad ng emcee at agad naman siyang binitawan na ng dalaga. Agad na nagbago ang isip ng emcee dahil si Raven ang pinaka-kinakatakutan ng lahat sa gangster arena, as a solo gangster or not ay alam niyang hindi dapat siya umangal dito. 

Inayos ng emcee ang kanyang sarili at peke siyang umubo upang makuha ang atensyon ng mga manonood.

"Good evening everyone! Tonight we will be having the survival of the greatest! Those who would like to join please step down the battle field!  Whoever the winner is will get a priceless prize!" -the emcee said and just right after that ay mayroon ng ilan ang bumaba sa battlefield. Nang marami nang tao sa battle field ay doon lamang bumaba si Raven. 

"Pfft hula ko si pinilit ni Raven ang emcee na gawin ang Survival of the greatest" - Luke said to the other members of the gang. Even though Raven, their leader said that they should split up they really can't because they just want to watch the gangsters of the Philippines. They want to know if they are worth it or not.

"You know her, she loves the thrill" - Mark said and the four nod their heads in agreement. 

"Remember killing is not allowed! We will only honor the last man standing!" - the emcee exclaimed dahilan para mapakunot ang noo ni Raven

"Maybe I should have told him to allow killing especially when I feel like it" - saad ni Rain sa kanyang isipan and as if on cue ay biglang tumunog ang malakas na bell sa arena and every gangster on the battlefield started to attack each other like they are wild animals.

Napa iling nalang si Raven at imbis na makipaglaban ay naglakad lamang siya naghihintay na may maglakas loob na maunang sumugod sakanya. And in just a few more minutes ay mayroon na ngang sumugod sakanya at may hawak hawak itong dos por dos.

"Buena Manong mapapatumba" - Daniel whispered which the four clearly heard and their eyes are still fixed on the battlefield

Raven, on the hand, grinned. Nakalapit na ang lalaki at akmang hahampasin siya ng dos por dos sa binti ng tumalon siya dahilan para maapakan niya ang dos por dos. She used the piece of wood as a spring to be able to jump again and do a back flip just like a gymnast.

She landed safely on the ground and when she is about to get sandwiched by two gangsters that are fighting ay agad niyang inatake ang parehong batok nito dahilan para mawalan ito pareho ng malay. 

"Okay I'm done warming up" - she said and in a swift move ay binalikan niya ang lalaking unang gustong umatake sakanya. Nang makarating na siya sa harap nito ay akmang hahampasin siya ulit ng dos por dos ng bigla niya itong mahuli ng kanyang kanang kamay.

Her grip tightened on the wood and without thinking twice ay agad niyang sinipa ang lalaki sa tiyan pero imbis na mabitawan lang nito ang kahoy ay mas malala pa ang nangyari dito dahil tumilapon ito na naging dahilan din ng pagkakatumba ng ilan pang mga gangsters.

Ang dos por dos na kanina'y sandata ng lalaki ay ngayon ay nasa kamay na ni Raven. It is now her weapon.

Mayroon muling sumugod sakanya at ang sandata nito ay dalawang dagger. The attacker was about to stab her when she used the wood to block it.

"Lame" - she whispered and she twister her body and used a minimal force for her to be behind the attacker. She is now somewhat trying to choke the attacker with the wood but the scary part is that the two daggers are still buried at the wood and it will cause the attacker to die if she will continue to try and choke him.

"Oh yeah I am not allowed to f*****g kill" - she whispered so she immediately released the attacker and she just pinched something on the back of his neck and the attacker immediately lost consciousness.

She looked at the direction where her gangmates are and she nod her head. It is a sign that she is already finished with the things she is doing and she got no more intention in finishing the battle since she already knows that she will win. 

She slowly moved towards the exit and she knows that no one actually noticed her since she hid her presence very well.

"These weaklings does not deserve my strength" - she whispered as she disappeared in the dark.
