The Earth After Rebirth

Since his fist was blocked, Jesús gargled a mouthful and spat on the arrogant man's face. It landed right between his eyes, wiping the smug smile off his face.

He considered the man in front of him for but a second and his hand flew through the air and across Jesús' face.

The sound the slap made was deafening, Jesús was sent to the ground falling with a thud. Everyone stopped to look at what was happening, faces with shocked expressions looking at their superior who had just done something unheard of.

"You think just because you're something in our society you can just do whatever to an official of the country?" He asked picking up his cigarette, dusting it off and putting it between his lips.

"You do know I'm an official of the government don't you, Mister Silva?" He lit the cigarette and puffed out smoke, chuckling and pushing back his hair.

"I only answer to one man, you know what he told me? I can pretty much handle every inch of this situation to my liking, yes he knew the head of the Silva family was here too, he didn't care. That means I don't care, a single step out of line and I'll fix tune you right up, you whine again and I'll pick a teeth or two from the many you have, understand?" He was knelt on the ground with one knee.

Jesús turned to face him and laughed like a maniac. His body was complaining because of being strained, two days in a row doing physical things was enough to tire anyone even the evolved humans.

"You think I'm kidding?" Jesús Silva did not answer, he continued to laugh at the man's face. Which earned him a punch in the gut.

"Do you understand?"

Jesús was still being stubborn. The pain was nothing to what he'd gone through at this mountain, he'd learned to persevere and that made him a lot more stubborn.

"He understands." Sekani answered, it was enough, there was no need for him to endure they just needed to survive this a bit longer and soon enough the truth will be out.

The man, Williams gave him the most disgusted look. "Who went and asked you? Slum rat piece of shit." He walked over to Sekani intending to stomp him to death if need be.

Unfortunately for him, he spent way too much time on the gone. Giving this beast of a man ample time to recover his energy and rest his body.

It took him a single move to shed the people that were holding him down. He didn't lay a finger on them just simply shook himself loose, he was on his feet before Williams reached him.

Williams had completely abandoned kicking him, he had his fist raised as he reached Sekani. It was easily blocked and he opted to headbutt him, Williams staggered back a few steps away from the men.

The ones he shook off were beginning to run towards him, to help their superior but stopped abruptly when he raised a single fist and they immediately backed off.

Williams felt dizzy, his eyes were seeing nothing but darkness. He knew his men would want to fight for him and stopped them even though he couldn't see them, the cigarette he'd been smoking was on the ground.

"If you want to take me in, I'll come with you without resisting but if you want to dance with me first, by all means Mister Williams, we can tango."

The anger he felt didn't allow for him to stop and access the situation. As soon as his vision came back he ran towards Sekani, it was unbelievable to him that he was being outclassed by a slum rat.

Sekani dodge the punch and blocked the kick with his leg and pushed the man back to where he came from.

There was a loud scream behind Williams, it was Jesús getting to his feet punching the man standing his side senseless.

"That's more like it Waynworth, let's do this, let's fight our way out of this. These officials are just little kids who need to be scolded with a beating or two."

Sekani pinched the bridge of his nose, "will you calm down please Silva? We're not fighting here but we won't be bullied either. If they want to take us in, they'll do it the proper way, we will not be their pinching back."n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

He ran his eyes throughout the top of the mountain and landed on Williams, "did you hear that Williams? If you want a beating, I'll gladly give you one." For the first time in his life, Silva saw what he thought was a genuine smile from the man.

And it was, Sekani was wholly happy. The more they talked, these government officials, the more they acted they were incriminating themselves in their hidden cameras.

"Everyone, switch them off." He commanded his entourage, who wasted no time touching their chests lightly followed by three faded dings.

Sekani's genuine smile turned sinister really quickly. He didn't intend to move where he stood, if they came at him from different angles he could just make use of the space above him.

"Nobody interfere. I need to beat the stubbornness out of this rat." Williams said throwing away yet another cigarette and engaging Sekani.

It would be wrong to call it a fight. Williams was being showed that whatever training he did as a government official was miniscule in big boy league. He was being tossed around like nothing at all but what's more was the fact that he kept getting up only to receive a punch or kick that sent him back to the ground.

Everyone else watched as their best fighter was being treated like nothing at all. The one who hit Sekani with the butt of the gun was starting to panic.

He didn't need to, he promised himself that he wasn't going to start anything but would gladly finish whatever they throw at him. So unless he actively attacked him, he was safe.

After several minutes of being punched in the face and kicked in the ribs, Williams threw in the towel.

"Fine. We'll be taking you in, for the murder and enslavement of those animals." He attempted to smile but his face was too painful to form it.
