Capítulo 3: Showdown Begins

The alley was cloaked in darkness, a narrow corridor of uncertainty that stretched out before them. Arjun stood at its centre as he faced the looming threat of four thugs pressing them towards the wall . Beside him, Riya clutched his arm trembling in fear.

The leader of the group, a menacing figure with a cruel smirk, stepped forward. "Look what we have here," his voice dripping with mockery. "A hero in the wrong place at the wrong time. Think you can shield this lady from us? We're not just any pack of wolves.. we're the ones who enjoy the hunt."

Arjun's jaw tightened, his gaze locked on the leader. "Stay behind me, Riya. I've got this,"

Riya's breath hitched as she clung to Arjun's arm. "Arjun, please be careful," she whispered, trembling in fear.

"I promise, Riya, nothing's going to happen to you," Arjun said with resolve burning in his heart. He stepped forward, ready to face the danger head-on.

The leader sneered. "You're brave, I'll give you that. But you're also a fool. We're going to have some fun with your girl here, and you're going to watch. For the rest of you," he addressed his goons, "break his legs, but don't kill him. The longer he stays alive, the better our fun."

As the tension escalated, the three goons brandished their knives with menacing smiles, their intentions clear. With calculated malice, they began to encircle Arjun, their movements predatory and sinister.

Arjun remained vigilant, his stance shifting with each subtle movement of his adversaries. He kept a watchful eye on each of them, anticipating their next move with unwavering focus.

Suddenly, one goon to his left tried a kick, Arjun caught the leg and spun the attacker into another goon to his right.

However, in the midst of this manoeuvre, Arjun's attention was momentarily diverted, leaving him vulnerable to the goon behind him who seized the opportunity to strike, wielding his knife with lethal intent.

As the goon behind Arjun lunged forward with a glinting knife, Arjun's instincts kicked in with lightning speed. He smoothly dodged the attack and skilfully disarmed the thug by twisting his arm in the opposite direction.

"AHHHHHHHH! MY Hand ! MY Hand!!", the goon let out a pained cry, his knife clattering to the ground as he cradled his injured arm.

Crack! THUD!

Arjun didn't hesitate. He twisted the assailant's arm, dislocating his shoulder, and then yanked him down by his hair, slamming him onto the ground.

With one threat neutralized, Arjun turned to face the remaining goons. "Who's next?" he demanded.

The goons hesitated, startled by Arjun's display of strength. The leader's voice cut through the tension.

"He's alone! Tire him out and overwhelm him, you fools!" the leader barked, directing his goons to prepare for another attack.

The second goon charged forward recklessly as he swung his knife wildly. Arjun faced his each blow with precise movements, parrying and dodging with expert skill. Finding an opening, he landed a swift punch to the goon's jaw, that turned out to be decisive.

BAM! CRUNCH!

As the goon writhed in pain, Arjun seized the opportunity to deliver a devastating headbutt that echoed through the alley. The sickening crunch of bone against narrow path filled the air. The thug lay flat on the ground unconscious as blood pooled around from his nose.

Meanwhile, the third goon attempted to flank Arjun, aiming for Riya who stood frozen with fear. But Arjun was too quick, sweeping the man's legs out from under him with a swift kick.

THUD!

BAM! BAM! BAM! BAM!

Arjun pounced on the fallen goon, delivering a relentless barrage of blows until his opponent's face was a bloody mess.

The goon cried out in pain and desperation, "No, please! Stop! I give up!"

But Arjun's fury knew no bounds as his relentless assault were fueled by a primal instinct to protect Riya. The cries of goon echoed through the dark alley, mingled with sickening sound of bone crushing assault.

"ARJUNN! NO STOP!" Riya cried out in desperation.

Bang! a sudden gunshot shattered the night air.

Arjun staggered, pain searing through his chest as he looked up in disbelief. The leader stood over him, gun aimed directly at his chest.

"Lucky for you, I'm using a gun," the leader sneered. "Next time, if you stay alive, I'll make sure it's not so easy. And you," he addressed Riya, "stay out of our way if you know what's good for you."

With a chilling laugh, the leader signaled to his men. "Time to move out, boys. Let's clear out before the cops show up."

As the goons hurriedly retreated into the shadows, leaving Arjun and Riya amidst the wreckage, Riya's screams of horror echoed through the alley.

She knelt beside Arjun, tears streaming down her face as she struggled to stem the flow of blood, her hands shaking as she prayed for help to arrive in time.
