Chapter 28: Viper Junkies

Taf dove into the incoming crowd with his two hammers in hand. It was time to see his words to fruition.

" I guess it will be you first chubby; what bad luck you have."

Just as the words escaped Taf's mouth, he appeared before a fatty with a flail in his hand swinging for the head.

He moved so quickly that the big fellow could not react in time before feeling his ankle snap and his body toppling over.

After Taf suddenly appeared before two other members. Before they knew it, they were screaming in agony from the pain of their wrists and elbows being smashed.

He was immaculate in his execution, like an exquisite surgeon performing at his best. Taf selected just the right ligaments for his serving of pain as screams echoed through the night.

He weaved in and out of the mob. With every swing of his hammers, someone laid on the floor howling. Like a giant in a tiny glass store, everything Taf touched broke and was totally destroyed in the most savage manner imagined.

The number of injured kept on growing as the confrontation went on. First, it was ten rolling on the ground, then ten turned to twenty. He was the harbinger of pain and agony that night.

🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

A sound of a long heavy mace being dragged on the ground could be heard after the thirtieth member fell on the floor passed out.

A hand gripped the mace and tried lifting it over his shoulder but struggled due to its weight.

" This weapon has never been fully tested due to its weight being somewhat of a hindrance. Tonight, however, you will see it in all its glory."

Bishop uttered as he continued,

"So have you warmed up as yet runt? Or do you want me to send more pawns for you to play with?

I have some newfound strength that I have been dying to try out. You seem to be the perfect punching bag."

Bishop grinned as Gomorra to his side flashed a whip laced over with thorns protruding to a member of her gang. He was screaming in pain from the hammer mashing his wrist before but now.

" Waste, you're just sullying the name of the Viper gang with your wailing. What use are you to us?"

The member screamed louder as a piece of flesh from his back was seen on her whip.

🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

" Now I recall your name. It's a cold-hearted bitch if I'm not mistaken"

Taf uttered with total disregard,

"To inflict pain on a wounded man of your own gang. Seems like slaves more than members.

Sigh!

Even I pity them for joining you lot."

The remaining members looked on in shock at what had just occurred after hearing the words of Tafari. Soon hesitation could be seen as they no longer attacked.

There was some truth in what he said as each member looked at the other. When did they become some unwanted pawns?

Their leaders seem not to be themselves for some reason. Something was not right with their behaviour.

" Little bastard, who are you to judge me and my actions? Why don't you mind your own damn business? Even better, how about thinking about the agonizing pain you will be incurring."

She flashed the whip once more, and with each flash, the wind seemed to howl slightly.

" Bishop, I wonder if you're into toothless women? Tell you what. Does pure gum work for you? You'll find out tonight.

I'll make her toothless for free; there will be no need to thank me."

A grin was seen on Taf's face as he pointed a hammer at Gomorra's mouth.

Bishop fumed as he looked at the grin on Taf's face, but before he could reply, Gomorra held his arm and responded.

" Let's see if those other pills are better than the ones we took before. After all, the senior says those are even better. Especially when fighting, I want my whip soaked in his blood."

After hearing her words, Taf became curious when pills and senior were mentioned.

'I wonder what they are on about? What use could pills have right now?'

Before Taf could comprehend what their actual discussions were about. He saw a vile filled with three red pills in Bishop's hand.

Bishop took two pills out, then handed the other to Gomorra. These were the pills handed out in the gym to the gangs.

However, only the leaders or the ones seen as having the most potential were given them by the elder.

After digesting the pill, veins started to take shape all over Bishop's body as his muscles bulged and expanded.

Being already tall and muscular, he seemed to resemble a beast more than a human with his growth in body mass. Everyone looked with utter shock at his sudden transformation.

" I.., I feel great!"

" Fantastic.., What power..what fucking POWER!"

Bishop howled to the sky after feeling a primal desire to let loose in his lungs. He suddenly looked at Taf, and as if lifting a feather, the seemingly heavy mace was raised in his hands.

" I was told to bring you in alive by the senior, but how much alive is the question?"

Bishop laughed as he eyed Taf like a predator stalking its prey.

A dazed look started to appear on Tafari's face as he tried grasping and getting a grip on what was taking place.

'Shit.., what is happening? How can he get so strong all of a sudden? Wait, that damn pill!"

Bringing me in alive to a senior. What senior? What the hell is he on about?

" Damn it...things are getting more unpredictable by the second. I have lost all my previous control of the situation.'

Thoughts ran a mile a minute through his mind as he watched Bishop's movements. He needed to flee, but as Taf attempted to do so, more persons coming from the shadows blocked his path.

" Hehe, so even the mouse is scared in the presence of a viper."

Bishop laughed as he saw the momentary daze look on Taf's face. What he desired was occurring right before his eyes.

" Love, make sure not to play too much with your food. Also, remember, as your partner, I should always get half of your meals. Isn't that only fair, baby."

Gomorra licked her whip as she laughed. Blood trickled from her mouth as she spoke while her teeth became red. For some reason, her blood lust had hit her limits after ingesting the pill.

Although she took the pills, there was seemingly no outside transformation that occurred. The only notable change was the spike in her killing intent.

" Today, a mouse is on the menu for this viper."
