Bullet Shot

A man shouted, "Don't leave any royal alive" his voice raised, "Every heir of Kenneth family must die"

"Send them all to Hell", the other one cried.

Valentine hid behind the wall where the path parted into two. While, the girl approached the door in silver color. The door was locked; she wandered her eyes to find how to open the door.

There was a pin lock on the right side of the door. She tried any possible pin number that could come in her mind but none worked. Every random try was going incorrect.

Those men had made their way inside, tearing the door away and running towards them.

Valentine looked at the girl struggling to find the pin and them leading their way to theirs. This is the time that needs him to make a quick decision before they both are dead meat. He decided to buy some time for the girl.

He couldn't guess exactly how many of them were approaching them in that narrow pathway. He could not even make a plan on how to deal with these armed guys when he doesn't even know how many they are.

He prepared his mind to put up a fight knowing a slightest mistake will invite her death with his.

He clenched his hands, eyes narrowed at that one guy nearing him with no precaution at all; he was in hurry wanting to be done with the two as soon as possible. He has left his companions behind proceeding with precautions.

The man nearing them, held his gun close to his chest, he pulled the trigger ready to fire, and he didn't slow at tritium where Valentine hid behind the wall. He wasn't peeking but he was hearing the footsteps to measure the distance between him and the man nearing him.

The moment the man approached the tritium, Valentine didn't give any time to the man for analyzing a thing. Knowing in a closed space like these narrow paths only the faster, smarter and stronger one would win. If he doesn't know about the wisdom of the front person and is vague about the opponent's strength, he should use his full speed and pull him down with his entire strength without letting the opponent know.

Valentine hit his chest with the very gun the armed guy was holding against his chest. He pulled the gun away from him and fired at him and hid behind the wall once again when the open firing began from his companions at the sight of an unexpected spar from Valentine.

Angelica struggled to get the pin glanced back to confirm about Valentine's wellbeing, her negative part of mind was forcing her to think of every negative possible outcome. But she relaxed her shoulders from shuddering, she saw Valentine was fine and there's a person lying lifeless on the ground. It can't be denied that she was happy for Valentine being safe but for how long will the two of them like this. If she couldn't get the password soon he isn't the only one dying here but her too.

She gulped and shrugged off the negativity to focus on what laid in front of her. She knew very well that she needed to rush and panicking and being scared would only waste her time and lower her chance of getting the pin lock.

Valentine started firing too, aiming for the head or heart for quick death. He isn't sure how many bullets he has before he runs out of them.

Gun firing was deafening and Angelica was having a hard time keeping her heart together.

Valentine killed the two of the front guys but it didn't stop them from approaching them. They used their dead companion's body as a shell.

This much effort just to kill a ten-year-old heir of some royal family. The thought was almost revolting. It's just so meaningless, Valentine thought to himself.

He glanced inside the gun to find he had only one bullet left with him. He used his luck firing the last bullet at them which hit one's leg exposed behind the dead corpse and now he is left with an empty gun and those men are still nearing him. The continuous bullet firing from before slowed down their speed but now that he has stopped firing, they were nearing him with a great speeder.

When they were close to the tritium, Valentine laid a punch on a man's abdomen. Making him drop his gun but before he could approach it, another man dropped the heavy dead corpse of his companion on Valentine. Valentine struggled to get away and found that other man holding his gun against him; he almost shot Valentine to death. Valentine tried making an escape and the gun laid on his left leg, the part below his kneecap.

Valentine hissed in pain, "Aahhhh!"

The dead corpses not so far from here laid lifeless on ground. Valentine sat holding his leg, trying to stand but deep down inside his heart he knew it’s all over. A man with green eyes pointed the gun at his forehead.

"You don't look like a member of Kenneth's family", the same man with green eyes said, "But you look too young for a guard too. How the hell can a brat like you keep up for this long?"

The girl was hearing all this from a distance, she felt useless seeing that now Valentine is caught. She hit her fist hard on the cuboid pin lock out of anger for coming out useless. The pin lock cuboid slid open.

Angelica realized it wasn't a pin password door but an eye scanner but it was covered by a pin code machine. She couldn't feel any dumber.

The machine when being exposed scanned her eyes without being told to and opened on its own with a clack sound.
