Chapitre 54: Ch.54 Keep your eye on the ball!
When Kris saw that Arot, the assassin dress like a mad looking doctor arrive. He kept distance from the rampaging giant, but he still waited for a chance.
Like a small animal, in a vast forest he hid his presence. Not even the invisibility spell would be enough to conceal himself, from a trained assassin.
His senses became more in tuned with the surroundings. His breaths became numbered but, steady. His presence became thinner, and when he saw Arot leaped off towards the roof.
He moved. Face now blank, with no hint of emotion, he entered the unlocked mode. Moving on a balcony just ahead of Minima, his 3 meters figure lumbering down the street. Kris bent his knee to perform an Iaido stance he waited, still.
As soon as Minima run passed him,he slash his arm forward as if pulling a sword out of a scabbard. Centimeters from touching Minima's skin he activated his lightsaber, cutting the giants nape, in a swift motion; as soon as the lightsaber's blade pass thru the other side, it deactivated.
Even if Arot was paying close attention to Minima, he wouldn't have noticed the flash of light that beheaded the giant.
Minima's downfall was the very strength he relied on. The density of his muscles, the thickness of his skin, and everything that made him, into a mobile tank, made him dull.
Dulling one senses, only makes us react slower to certain stimuli.
He could have ducked the moment he felt the heat of the approaching lightsaber blade.
But, now that his dead, there is no such thing as a cure for regret.
Upon slashing Minima's head Kris took a sample of his blood, and faded into the dark alleyways again.
By the time Arot came beside Minima, Kris was long gone.
Arot took out his communicator, and reported to Shiva, "Leader, the ones in the open are bait. A shark comes, when it smells blood in the water. We just lost Minima."
Shiva replied, "And, They have Muhammad Joseph. We have no other choice, we will have to eat the bait, and cut our losses. Return to base for now."
When Kris arrived at the others location Zero, Jie, Yinkong, and Zheng were in a heated debate about morals. While Heng was using a telescope to keep an eye on the movie characters that are a cross the street.
Kris saw that their was an arabian man with a knife sticking from the back of his head is laid on a wooden table.
Zheng bellowed," I won't let you torture a helpless man just because he is our enemy, there are other ways. What about tricking him. By offering him some deal?!"
Yinkong snorted,"Not everyone is as naive as you! If he really has a way to self-detonate, we are at risk of getting wiped by just him alone. Do you wish to put all of us in danger? Just for that ideology of yours? Don't kid me."
This is when Kris understood what the debate was about, the professionals were worried of the possibility of a trojan horse scenario. While, Zheng is against it due to his moral views.
"Are you talking about cutting him up? I could do it for you but, I call dibs on the dude after!"
Everyone now being made aware of Kris's presence turn their heads towards him.
"We are not cutting him up!" shouted Zheng
Kris shook his head, and said " Your getting side tracked again Zheng... Tell me again, What is your goal?!"
Zheng didn't answer but just glared at Kris.
"Last time I checked, it was to survive every movie, and go back to the real world... to build your self a giant silver castle made of hair, till your old with sand in your brains or was it the other way around?!"
"Point is your losing track of your goal. Why don't you look at your watch right now... go ahead check it for me!"
Everyone was shocked due to the moral dilemma they were argueing about, they didn't notice the current scores of the team.
"That's 5 points to our favor, and 5 against theirs, So think Zheng, if this guy has a bomb in him right now, and all it would take to save your team was press a button, to do it. Would you hesitate?" said Kris as he walk towards the table.
Yinkong handed him a knife, and he opened Muhammad Joseph's chest with it. Basing on the novels the bomb should be located near his heart but, Kris wasn't sure.
So he opened him up to the stomach, only to see bitts, and bobbs ticking. "This man is more machine than anything else." said Heng now peering from the side.
"Keep watch at the movie characters don't get destructed." Reprimanded Zero towards Heng, Heng could only go back to his post.
Seeing all this, Zheng said nothing he seemed to be pouting.
"Aha!!" said Kris "Will you look at that this guy is nuclear, 5 kilo tons yield of explosive. Now, that's over compensating for something."
He looked at Yinkong and said," Do you think he has a small weiner?"
Yinkong could only blush, and turn her head to the side. No longer interested on the cyborg.
Taking out the bomb, Kris cut all the wires for the limbs, to immobilize the cyborg ,and gingerly placed the bomb into the magic bag Felicity left him. All the while smiling like the grinch, after he stole christmas.
He also signaled, for everyone to come closer, and said "So, Who gets this one?"
"It should be Yinkong she captured him after all." said Zero
Without further a do Yinkong took hold of her dagger, and yanked it out. Not giving the cyborg anytime to recover she planted it again on top of its head, fire coming out of its eyes, mouth, and ears.
"One member killed. Team India minus one point. Currently at negative 14000 points. Team China 6 points; Team India -6 points. Members with negative points at the end of the movie will be erased."
"They'll be very desperate now, and a cornered animal will use its horns." said Kris.
Just after he said this words, Heng yelled from the window,"They've Attacked the Museum!"
