Chapter 23 All caught up in the game
Garry stepped out of his apartment and locked the door.
He stared at the atmosphere.
Suddenly, he felt something is wrong.
His innermimd told him to return back in but the other was adamant.
He have to find that girl…
She is posing as danger if she’s still out there.
Why did the woman have to come that time, hun?.
He would have finish all this if it wasn’t for her.
He walked down from the porch and began walking into the cold night.
The streets was awful quiet.
He brought out his phone to check the time.
*9:10*the time says.
He pocketed his phone and breathed out.
He tripped on a stone and almost fell down but he was quick trip regain his balance.
Hm. Something bad his coming..*he thought.
He began walking faster.
Two cars drove past him speedily.
The cars suddenly stopped and started reversing.
Garry covered his head with his hoodie cap and bent his head.
He inserted his hand into his trouser pocket and slowly brought it out.
He’s ready for the worst.
The car got to his side and stopped.
A man dressed in black suit came out.
“Garry,”he called and shut the door.
He stopped walking and his heart stopped beating.
“It’s been a while friend.”the man added darkly.
The other car also opened and four huge guys came out.
Garry slowly turned.
His eyes met with the man and he flinched…
His breathing became rough.
He stepped back and quickly took to his heels.
The man chuckled dryly and signaled two of the guys to follow him.
They nodded and ran after him.
Garry could heard footsteps behind him.
“Hell!!!.”he exclaimed roughly and yanked his hoodie cap opened.Original from NôvelDrama.Org.
He ran into an abandoned house.
The guys followed him in.
He was quick to hide behind the pillar in a room before the other guys came in.
They breathed heavily.
“Fuck!. Don’t tell me we lost him!.”one said angrily.
“Probably not.”another replied.
“I can smell him. He’s here.”he added.
Garry nibbed at his bottom lips.
Alright, a duel will surely work.
He came out of his hiding and face them.
“I told you.”the guy mumbled to the second.
“Hey!, do you wanna go with us easily… or…. you want the hard way?.”the second one asked.
“I desire the hard way. A duel?, you both mind?.”Garry smirked.
The guy smirked.
“Really?, you sure you up for this?. You’re no longer the strong Garry anymore, you’re wrecked!.”the guy said.
Garry moved to him in a great speed and kicked him on his face with leg and moved back.
That probably took him off guard.
The guy hissed and cleaned his mouth that was stained with blood.
“Those fuck shoes of yours!, hm!.”the guy scoffed.
“Both of us, are you sure you can win against us?.”
“Nothing bad in trying!.”Garry replied.
The two of them glanced at each other and smirked.
“He really wanna die. Alright, bring it on!.”
*Strike first!.*
Garry remembered the code of fight.
He allowed them to come closer before moving behind them in a slide and landing a punch on their necks then gave them several kicking on their back.
He use the knife in his hand to cut the flesh on the first guy’s neck before pushing them forward with his hard shoe.
They staggered forth but soon maintained their stand.
“Nice, Garry… oof!!!!!…”the guy winced in pain as he held his neck.
Garry brandished the knife in his hand in the air and smirked lightly.
“I don’t know, I suddenly became more strong even with no training in the past years!.”he taunted them.
The guy eyes moved behind him.
“Not as strong as in the next minute, I bet!.”the guy replied, his eyes still at the entrance of the room.
Garry cast him a stare and as he made to turn back to see what he was staring out, his head was hit with a big stone.
What?!.
Blood oozed out from his head and he raised up his hand to touch it.
He then fell down.
“Good job, Rico!. Right on time!.”he heard before blacking out.

The cars drove inside the compound with a great speed.
The man stepped out from the first car and the other guys got down from the others and dragged Garry down.
The man took long strides towards the house and some guys dressed in black uniform ran towards him.
They all raised a leg up and saluted him.
“Connect me to the head of the eastern region.”the man said still walking.
Not long enough, a boy gave him a phone.
“Sir, on the line….”
He nodded and collected the call.
“Hey. We’ve got hold of Garry.. pre…”
“We have him in our custody, yes?.”the voice replied from the other end.
“We just got hold of him now, he harmed two of my neck but we good.”the man said.
“What does this mean?. We have Garry here right in the eastern region and….”
“He’s here in the west also.. I certainly don’t understand anymore… infact, he’s been taken inside the house.”
“Are you sure you don’t have the wrong person?.”
“Wait. Let’s do FaceTime.”he said and cuts the call.
He started to a FaceTime and he instructed the boys taking Garry in to stop.
He placed the phone in front of him.
“The fuck!!!!.”the voice on the other end exclaimed.
“Take him in.”he told the boys and turned away.
“You see, he’s really Garry!.”
The man scoffed and put the phone in front of Larry.
The man’s eyes widened…..
“Impossible!!!!.”he yelled.
“Take him here ASAP. Something is definitely wrong. This is quite amusing!!”

Annie’s eyes fluttered opened.
The next thing her eyes got in contact was was a leaking ceiling.
Huh?.
She groaned as she sat up.
Where’s she?.
Skyler.
Yes, Skyler!.
She remembered seeing him before drifting into unconscious state.
Just then, the door opened and Skyler stepped in.
She quickly stood up.
“Skyler… where am I…..”she questioned.
“So you know my name.”he scoffed.
Annie breathed out heavily.
What’s going on?.
“I’m sorry tho. This is not the Skyler you know back in Russia.. I wonder why Larry took you along. Now, you’re all caught up in this game.”
