Plop!

A single drop of blood …

Plop!

Long ice spears thrusted on someone's body …

In the stomach …

In the shoulders …

And in the heart ... 

Plop!

The single drop of blood continued pouring and gushing out of the man's body whose face was covered in darkness. Only his musculine body, with knees on the ground could be seen, and his surroundings burning in fire. He wore a fitted black turtleneck and dark pants that turned damp due to the massive amount of blood flowing from his body.

He wasn't alone … many other men laid dead on the floor near him, also covered in blood.

"Haaaahh …," the man breathed heavily as if it was his last.
