Chapter 608 - Climax 21..

The three of them looked at each other in confusion not knowing what to do further.

"We will have to take a risk I suppose. Everybody else must have already reached the building. I need to protect them too. So, all we are left with is, to take a chance." James sighed looking at the road at the far end.

The only way to reach the building was to take that straight road and the only way to take that road was to cross the cages. "If we all go, it will be easier for the lions to smell us. I shall go alone and kill all these guards first."

The two women looked at James with fear in their eyes.

"But Jammy.. This is too risky." Elizabeth looked at the boy in doubt.

"Yes. What if something bad happens?" Lillain looked at him too with worried eyes. 

"These are around thirty men which I can easily defeat. The only problem for me will be the lions. If they roar or are left open by the guards, I will run towards the road in full speed and you both run back towards the forest. Okay?" James looked at both the women. Though he himself was not sure of his plan but he now had to take a risk. He knew their could be several un- forseen problems in their way!

"OK." They both nodded their heads in a yes and immediately took out their guns pointing towards the gaurds. They both were ready to shoot the men themselves in case, James falls in any sort of trouble.

James took one step ahead and walked towards the extreme corner of the road, holding a gun in his hand. Their was not even any adequate space for the boy to hide himself, in case they all attack him all-together. He fixed a silencer on the tip of his gun and walked close to the wall, crossing the road quickly. Soon he crossed the road and stood behind a pile of sacks, which was full of raw meat for the lions.

Suddenly he spotted a large group of men standing just at the beginning of the straight road which was leading to the building. These men were earlier not visible from behind the tree and he gulped in nervousness. "OK! So they are much more than thirty! This kills my plan to run on that road if the lions roar. Basically, I have no place to go now!"

He waited for a few more seconds thinking of a perfect plan to kill all the men. Just then a few men were talking and coming towards him. They were probably coming to fetch the Lion's food which meant it was the time to feed them. James slapped his forehead cursing himself of having such a bad timing. He knew he will soon be spotted by those men now. They were total eight men in number coming to pick up the food. James had now bent his body hiding behind the pile of sacks and he quickly stood up aiming his gun at those eight men.

"Hey! Who are you bo...." Before the man could even complete his scentence he was shot dead by James. Within next few seconds the eight of them were lying down on the ground shot on their heads and James was already dragging their body behind the pile of meat. He then quickly removed the bullet proof suit of one man and wore it on top his formal suit. He then removed the cap of other man and wore it over his head, trying to hide his face.

He then casually walked towards the pile of the meat and picked up a gigantic round piece holding it with one hand and hiding his gun behind it with the other hand. He then took a left turn going closer to the first cage and saw atleast fifteen men standing close to the first cage. They had not noticed that it was indeed somebody else in the same attire that they had worn. James pretended to walk casually closer to the cage and immediately fired quick shots at those fifteen men, not giving them a time to react and killing them instantly. The men had now fallen on the ground, with blood flowing out from their bodies. 

James heart skipped a beat as he realised more than his body scent the lions will create a havoc due to the scent of the blood. He looked at the lion in the first cage which was sitting lazily near a pond. James knew that it was just a matter of few more seconds that the lions will create a havoc so he needed to hurry up now!

He quickly ran towards the second cage, where several other men were standing. From a far away distance, while running towards them he shot several men and then hid at the edge of the rectangular second cage. As soon he shot a few more men, the other men near them were alarmed and they qucikly ran towards James, who was visible to them from in between the bars. The men started firing bullets at James who ran around the boundary of the cage still holding the meat in his hand.

The men were running after him quickly as he was now standing at the dead end of the grassy patch. He quickly climbed the bars of the cage to avert the men and jumped inside the cage silently having found no other way to escape!

James who was so quick in climbing the cage, was not visible to the men now and they looked around for him standing at the dead end of the patch.

"Where did he go?" 

Never on earth could they have thought that the boy was inside the cage now. James held up his gun taking out its pointed end out of the cage and rapidly started firing at the men who were looking for him. Soon they all were also dead lying on the ground but now he knew he had a bigger trouble ahead of him. The lion had sniffed his scent and was approaching him from behind rapidly!
