Chapter 12 - Wedding Days (Part 1)

With a whistling of breath, David pulled the trigger of the sniper rifle with his index finger.

One.

Count it silently. He pulled the iron protrusion to the right of the sniper body to reload the bullet into the shell and quickly pulled the trigger again.

Two.

Three.

Four.

Five. Five people fell without a sound. No one realized where the bullets had come from.

David should have been relieved, but the overly calm circumstances made him even more alert.

This is too weird. There was no movement at all from the other side.

And his anxiety was answered when the roar of a car was heard approaching him. David paused to concentrate, trying to predict how many cars would come.

He opened his eyes again. There are at least three double-cabin sized cars that might come over to him.

"Damn it!" said David, feeling trapped somehow. Only this time anyone could find out where he was shooting. Whether someone divulged his plan or what, he had absolutely no idea.

David opened the trunk of his Aston Martin car, but he did not carry any automatic firearms. He even forgot to carry a single-handed pistol. His mind is preoccupied with his wedding reception with Angeline which will be held this afternoon in the hall of the Stockholm Corporation building.

At this rate, David was seriously ill-prepared for close combat.

Ckiiiiiiiittttttttt ...

Not finished yet he cursed his own stupidity, about three Hummer cars stopped a few meters ahead of him. And in less than three seconds David had been bombarded with bullets by dozens of people wielding automatic firearms.

David took cover behind his Aston Martin car which he used as a shield.

In his hand was only a CheyTac sniper with one bullet remaining in the ammunition box.

"You know what? To hell with it!"

David opened the fuel tank and stepped away from the car, took a deep breath and pulled the trigger of the sniper, shooting the final bullet into the fuel tank that sent the billion-dollar Aston Martin to explode.

BOOOMMMMM ...

The explosion was quite powerful, it made the dozens of people who shooting him distracted for a few seconds. When their attention was distracted by the car explosion, David, who had already been running around a few seconds ago, stealthily approached one of the three enemy's cars

Crackkk ...

David quickly turned the head of the one who had been showering him with bullets to the back. Now that person is lying lifeless on the ground with his head facing backwards.

David took the guy's G36C assault-rifle gun and killed the six closest people very quickly.

Drrrrrrttttttt ...

David again took cover behind the car from the bullets from the people who were still alive. He has brought down six people, which means that the enemy still had twelve people left.

David opened fire from between the car where he was taking cover and managed to took down two people.

He threw the gun which had run out of bullets in any direction and picked up another weapon that was lying nearby.

Ten.

David kept counting the rest of his enemies silently every time he managed to took them down one by one.

Nine.

Eight.

Seven.

Six.

He threw away his gun again. There is one remaining firearm that was near beside him, and the remaining six bullets are in it.

David knew he couldn't miss even a single shot. Because if so he will definitely be in trouble.

David changed his gun's mode from auto-mode to single-mode, so he could control the output of the bullets from his weapon. He needed to save the bullets as much as possible.

David also exhaled a deep breath before he began to bring down his enemies again.

Three enemies remained, and the remaining bullets in his weapon were also three.

Bang!

There is two enemies left.

David took aim at the two remaining enemies. But just as his index finger was about to pull the trigger again, his cell phone vibrated from the pocket of his trousers.

Bang! ... Bang! ...

"Fuck!" David cursed irritably.

The remaining two bullets were wasted. David looked at the screen on his cell phone, it said Angeline's name. David also put the cell phone screen to his ear while peering at his enemy's condition from the small corner of the Hummer car that he had been using as protection.

"David, where are you?" asked Angeline from across the line. "The hall is starting to fill with people in fancy clothes. My preparations have also been completed."

Bang! ...

David pulled his head back. His eye was almost scratched by a bullet as he tried to peek at the enemy.

"Wait a minute. I'm still busy here."

"How much longer?"

Bang! ... Bang! ... Bang! ... Bang! ...

David received rain of bullets again. It seemed the enemy had finished reloading their weapons.

David was pointing his gun and intending to fire a resistance shot, but he forgot that the bullets had run out. As a result, no bullets came out after pulling the trigger several times. He also threw his empty-bullets gun in any direction in frustration. "I don't know how much longer."

"Should I cancel today's reception and replace--"

"Don't!" interrupted David before Angeline could finish her sentence. "I'll be there in less than twenty minutes. Just you wait, okay? I'll hang up."

"Wait ... David,"

"What?"

"I love you." said Angeline from across the line, making David smile widely.

"I love you." David replied, who immediately cut off the connection with Angeline and put his cellphone back in his pocket.

When the bullet rains had stopped, it means the enemy was trying to reload their weapons again.

David jumped over the car he had been using as a shelter from the bullets and ran as fast as he could towards his enemies.

One of his two enemies had finished reloading his gun and aimed the tip of the barrel at David. But before he had time to pull the trigger, David's knee was lodged in his chin, sending the man tumbling several meters back.

David shot the other enemy a circular kick which hit the eyebrows and knocked the man sideways.

Now the two people have returned to their feet. Since their guns had been flung far enough, they had no other choice but to face David barehanded.

They both put up quite strange stances. The look on fear could not be hidden from the two of them.

David who saw that, smiled very broadly. Stretching his neck muscles to the left and right then walked slowly toward the two people who were already scared to death.

The two of them glanced at each other and nodded at the same time.

One of them charged at David and hugged David tightly around the waist, while the other ran the other way, trying to grab the nearest gun.

David landed his elbow on the back of the head of the person hugging his waist, hitting the cerebellum to be precise. Make that person pass out instantly.

The other person had managed to grab a gun and without thinking much, he fired a lot of bullets at David blindly.

David uses his enemy's body as protection. And when the raining of bullets had stopped, David walked slowly toward his enemy, who was left with one person. That guy kept pressing the trigger of the firearm in his hand even though he had run out of bullets.

And when David was right in front of him, he sat there in fear with his pants soaked from the wet.

"F ... Forg ... Forgive m-m-me ... " he whimpered so sadly, of course David ain't gonna give a damn.

To be honest, David wanted so badly to separate the internal organs of the man who sat peeing in front of him one by one, but he had promised Angeline to arrive in less than twenty minutes.

"You lowly rat!" David said, looking at the dirt around the man, which was wet with urine. "You've made me lose one of my favorite car, and now you're asking me to fucking spare you?"

David grabbed the man's head and threw him to the ground so that his face was squeezed into his own urine. He slammed it over and over without mercy, until the man died with his facial bones crushed.

David took over the last Hummer, which was still in quite good condition and left the bloody place.

The small monitor screen on the front of the car displays an image of an incoming call. David pressed the green icon and the face of someone who was familiar to David appeared. The man looked very surprised when he saw David who received his video call.

"Isaac Dominic." said David with a smile. "One of three people who framed my father. How are you? You seem to have gained a lot of weight since last time we met. Looks like you lived a pretty good life after that shit."

"Looks like the nickname of the Prince of Hell is not just a hoax. Your name really dominates the Underworld."

David laughed dryly. "Stop flattering me like that. You better help me think of something."

"What can I do for you, The Devil's Son?"

"Help me think of the best way to kill you. You know, I'm totally out of ideas."

Isaac laughed too at David's words. "You? Kill me?"

"Yup."

Isaac also gave David a defiant look. "It is common knowledge among the mafia that David Stockholm, the ruler of the Underworld is a man who always works alone. You don't have anyone, whereas I, I have a lot of friends. Are you sure you can kill me alone?"

Now David shook off his irritated expression and stared back at Isaac with a very sharp gaze, making Isaac swallow his own saliva just because of the murderous gaze from one and only David Stockholm.

Isaac knew that at this point David was no longer able to compromise.

"Tell all your friends to get ready and say goodbye to their children and their wives. And be sure to clean their neck first. Because after this, I'm gonna slaughter them all."

"And especially for you, stinky-ass pig, ... " David smiled again, even though his eyes still gave off a very dark killing aura. "Maybe I'll bring you the heads of your two kids who are in Michigan. What are their called again? Alex and Debbie?"

"DON'T YOU DARE, DAVID! IF YOU DARE TO TOUCH THEM, I PROMISE I WILL--"

David turned off the video connection with Isaac and returned his gaze to the road.. "From the start you trapped my father, not even God's soldiers could stop me from hunting you down, Isaac Dominic."
