Chapter 424 - Give Me A Gun Or Die?

BANG!

HELP!

KA-BOOM!

Endless cried for mercy echoed as some of the mercenaries tried to escape from the monster hunting them. They were all dumbfounded by her sudden appearance and could not explain her unbelievable skills. Her movements were so swift and perfect. Every shoot she made was right at the bullseye. The worst part was the girl didn't dare to kill her prey so easily, she enjoyed seeing them suffer as they pleaded for their life. She was a demon as she enjoyed the pleasure of killing them. 

"Ha-ha, idiots, where do you think you're going?" She laughed as she watched the two mercenaries crawling their way away from her. She started shooting at them but making sure that she does not directly hit them and only inches away. Such distance brought such fright to the mercenaires whilst the girl enjoyed the game. 

"PLEASE! Spare me." 

"We swear we will leave this place." 

Both of them didn't know what to do anymore, nor how they should beg for their lives. They weren't prepared to die at all. They were only told to assist with the attack by adding the number to bring fear to the other group. They were low class mercenaries, they only did small dog jobs. What's happening right now was out of their expectation. This was madness and now a psychopath has joined the battle for fun. This isn't right!

"What are you idiots talking about? Were all having fun here aren't we?" The spoke in such a gentle and charming tone. She acted like a harmless bunny as she blinked her adorable eyes as if they were sparkling like the stars. "Hey, mister, don't you want to play with me anymore?" 

"Please, we just want to leave." 

"Look, look, right there... There are more top mercenaries there. I bet they'll be eager to play with you?"

Like a child Elizabeth moved closer to the man excited to listen to what he has to say. 

"Yes, yes... See that, listen carefully- Can you hear that, that's the sound of gunfire by top class mercenaries. They are the best and right now they are here for the Young Princess. Shouldn't you go there and prevent them from getting her. I mean, isn't it your mission as well to get the Young Princess? So before anyone could get her, you better go and play with them first." The man explaining felt relieved that the girl was listening to his explanation. He noticed how intrigue she was of what she was saying and as he was about to say something further, he was interrupted. 

"Why would I go there? I'm not interested in the Young Princess. Both of you are more fun to play with. So why should I go there? Hey, mister, are you trying to trick me?"

"No, no, then..." The man couldn't explain himself as he was dumbfounded at the moment. He couldn't understand what the girl was here for if not for the Young Princess. Then he thought, "Wait, could it be your here to protect her. Then, shouldn't you go there and protect her now. I'm sure sooner or later those top class mercenaries will reach you. So, you better not waste your precious time with us and protect her." 

"I'm not interested in the Young Princess. Why do you keep mentioning her!" 

Both men trembled as they didn't know how to respond to her frightening reaction. Her calm aura suddenly turned cold and hostile. The devil was back and now they can already foresee their future. 

"I know, I know what you're trying to do now." The girl chuckled which confused the two mercenaries. 

What was so funny that she is now like this? 

Should they take this as a good sign that their lives are being spared?

"Ha- Do you really think I'm an idiot. You b*stard, how dare you trick me?"

"Wa-wait…"

"No…"

Before they could finish a single word…

BANG 

BANG 

"Idiot, do you really think I'll let you go. Hmm, what a waste of time." The girl frowned as she squatted down on the ground to check on the two mercenaries' body. She checked if they have anything useful for her to bring or use. 

'What a waste of time, they were indeed trash.' The girl thought as she found nothing useless with them. They were indeed useless mercenary dogs who were only used to boost their group number. 

"Well then, should I head to where all the fun is?" 

As she was preparing to where most of the fights were happening, she suddenly felt a sudden headache. 

"Ah!" The girl m.o.a.ned in pain as she rolled on the ground from the pain she was feeling. She curled herself into a ball as her whole body started to pain. "Wha-what?"

'We are leaving…'

"F*ck you! Get out of my head!"

'No, we need to get out of here and look for the professor.'

"B*tch, do you really think you have the will to fight me?"

'This is my body, so get out!'

Elizabeth was battling with herself. The person with the cold personality was still Elizabeth but that was her personality before which has been blocked by changing her memory. But, earlier, the scent of blood triggers her other personality as she is now on the loose of killing everyone in her path. 

'I won't let you stain my hands.'

"B*tch, your hands have been stained a long time ago. Don't you recall killing your own lover." 

'Wha-what, what are you talking about?'

"Ha- as if I'll tell you. Why don't you just stay deep inside where you can never come out again. You're just a hindrance… Everything was perfect, yet you have too…"

'Fell in love.'

"Haha, f*ck did you suddenly remember something. Too late, I've taken control now. So you stay put." 

Before Elizabeth could pull herself to a sitting position, her mind started to ache again in such a manner that her current self couldn't handle the pain. 

"You b*tch stop it!"

Her subconscious started replaying memories that have been buried deep in her subconscious. MEmories of her childhood, teenage years and the time she ran away started reemerching. Wonder and bright memories brought such confusion. 

"They aren't my memory!" 

'Yes they are and I won't let you destroy them.'

Time passes.

"Ah, what happened?" Elizabeth's original personality has finally returned. She looked around and was shocked at the state she was in. She was laying around with the two dead mercenaries. Such an image brought shivers down her spine. As she looked at them, she recalled what happened. 

"Ah, I killed them." She sighs desperately that she was unable to control herself again. Such painful memories can bring the dark side of a person. 

"You, check that area."

"You there, follow me." 

Elizabeth was alarmed when she heard the sound of men approaching her way. She panicked as she realized she was in an open area and had no place to hide. She couldn't see clearly how many were heading her way, so she grabbed the gun gain and what she could use. 

As the girl hurriedly finds a good spot to hide and prepare for what's to come. She calmed herself as she relaxed her mind. 

"Everything will be alright." she calmed herself as she awaits for the mercenaries. 

Meanwhile, back in the mansion… 

Everyone was in chaos as they still hadn't found the girl nor the passage way she used to escape. They have destroyed the rooms the girl was last in and seeing the surveillance were destroyed, they have no clue at all which room she was in last. 

Whilst everyone was busy looking for Elizabeth, Jo went to one of the men who was armed and said. "Hand me a gun?" 

"Wha-what? Are you out of your mind?" 

Jo's expression turned sour as he looked angrily at the man. He was not pleased how he was being treated earlier and now such idiots still act arrogant in front of me. "It seems you wish to end up like your leader. Either you give me a gun or I'll kill you and get it myself." 

"Wa-why you?" The trembled as she couldn't fight back knowing he'll end up dead if he does fight with Jo. "I can't do that." 

"Why not?" He asked, looking curious for his reason. 

"You killed most of our leaders, do you think I can trust you with a gun. You'll probably kill everyone here once you get yourself with a gun."

It confused the man when he saw Jo suddenly laughing. He was confused as to what could be funny with what he said. 

"Do you really think I have the time to kill you guys? I mean, those guys outside will do that for me. But I don't want them to come after me since I have better things to do right now. Seeing you all still can't find her, it's best I go out and find her before someone does. I mean, you all already failed and the girl is probably outside running for her life. Do you still want to argue with me?" 

"Yo-you.." The man was annoyed by what Jo was saying despite it being the truth. They have indeed failed but it wasn't their fault that the girl was trying to escape in the first place. If they knew, they would have not left her alone. 

"So, what will it be. Give me a gun or die?"
