Chapter 14: Crazy Bastard
"See you then Edward," Jin waved his bloodied hand towards Edward as he saw him run away.
'I'm saved!' Edward breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Jin was not following him any longer but he still kept on running.
He wanted to be as far away from Jin as possible 'That madman!' the scene of him murdering David was still vivid in his mind. He increased his pace further.
Jin looked at the paper in his hand, a page on which Edward had desperately scribbled earlier to save his life.
"Jake and Ray, Luckily they both live not far from here," Jin mused for a while and walked back towards David's body. He observed him for a while, particularly his uniform.
"It's still usable" He muttered. The blood was mostly absorbed by the blue blazer and the white shirt inside wasn't damaged.
A few minutes later Jin was now wearing David's school uniform. He had left the blazer and had worn the rest.
Jin was similar in build to these kids if their physical health was not considered. They were much fitter than him. That worked in his favour.
Jin opened up the system, made a few adjustments and morphed his appearance. He was now Edward. No one could doubt it if they saw him now.
Jin then dragged the body of David to a nearby dumpster and dumped it in. This would delay the inevitable. He wiped the blood on the ground with the blazer to reduce its visibility. While doing so he noticed there was something in one of the pockets.
"A phone?" He grabbed it and tried to switch it on. It didn't even have a password! Jin smiled when he saw this. "Well, that makes things easier..."
After tossing the blazer along with David's bag in the dumpster Jin placed his clothes in his bag which had his cleaning clothes and exited the alleyway.
Jin decided to visit Jack first. He had already created a plan in his mind and didn't have much time to waste so he rushed towards Jack's house.
...
"Jake! It's me, Edward! You finally picked up your phone you bastard..." a voice came from the other side of the phone.
"Edward? Why are you calling me from David's phone though? Look I'm sorry for earlier but I just didn't want to be part of that..." Edward explained. He felt that this was related to earlier.
"Fuck that dude. Something serious happened and I need your help!" Edward explained in a hurry. It was clear that he was very tense.
"What happened? Why are you so worked up?" Jake frowned. It was rare for Edward to lose his cool so Jake became tense.
"That bastard stabbed David in the leg and ran! He's bleeding all around but still refuses to go to the hospital! I need your help to carry him back! I'm almost near your house now. Come out I'm waiting..." Edward said and cut the call.
"What the actual fuck! I told them we shouldn't have gotten involved," Jake put on his shoes and immediately rushed out of his house and ran towards the place where he had left earlier.
He soon saw Edward who was currently covered in sweat all over.
"Y-you're finally here...Let's go!" Edward said while panting for air.
"How's his condition?" Jake tried to learn more about the situation as the two were rushing towards that alley.
"I wrapped my blazer around his wound to stop the bleeding. It should be manageable. Let's hurry and take him home," Edward said.
Jin nodded as the two rushed.
The two soon arrived at the place. Seeing the traces of blood on the ground Edward knitted his eyebrows.
"Where's David?" He asked Edward.
Instead of a reply, a knife rushed towards his neck and stabbed right into it.
"WHA-" He tried to express his words but the blood rushed into his larynx and prevented him from speaking any further. He could only look at Edward in confusion whose cold eyes confused him even further.
'Why...' These were Jake's last thoughts as he saw drowned in his own blood under Jin's cold gazes.
"One gone one to go..." Jin said as he dragged Jake's body to the same dumpster and dumped him in.
Jin followed the same thing with Ray and soon brought him into the alley. It took more time than he had thought. It was almost dusk now.
"Where's David?" He too asked in confusion after seeing the bloodied environment.
"Before that...can you open that dumpster...I heard a voice from there," Edward said with a confused expression.
Seeing Edward's confused expression Ray too became confused but he followed his words and opened the lid of the dumpster.
"AH!" He shrieked in fright and fell to the ground behind.
"J-jake....E-edward..." He started mumbling like a mental patient after he witnessed the sight.
"Ray!" Edward rushed towards Ray in confusion. "What happened?! Ray Tell me what happened?!" Edward shook Ray a few times and asked.
"J-Jake-huh?" Ray who was brought out of his stupor by Ray tried to explain things to him but he suddenly felt something pain in his abdomen.
He looked down and saw a knife plunged into his stomach...he traced back the hand which was holding the knife and Edward's cold face soon appeared in front of him, "Too bad...I'm not interested anymore,"
Jin twisted the knife in his hand which made Ray howl out in pain. "Fuck you!" Ray managed to unleash some strength all of a sudden and pushed Jin backwards making Jin fall back.
Ray pushed himself up while wobbling. He wanted to get out of this alley as fast as possible.
"HELP!"
"SOMEBODY HELP ME!"
Ray shouted in the hope that someone would rush into the alley. Jin propped himself up and saw the back of struggling Ray with a smile. The area outside the alley had a lot of people coming and going so it was natural for some of them to hear Ray's pleading.
"DIEEE YOU BASTARD" Jin shouted while rushing towards Ray with the knife in his hand. He could see a few figures in the distance who were facing towards the alley. He didn't mind and stabbed Ray in the back.
"SAVE MEEEEE!" Ray gave out his last cry for help as he fell on his face after being pushed down to the ground by Jin. Jin didn't stop and kept on stabbing Ray's back as he yelped for help every time he stabbed him.
Jin was just buying enough time. He wanted the spectators to look at his appearance. He also saw a few flashes and realized a few photographs were also taken by some good citizens.
'That's good, let's end this now,' He smiled as pulled Ray's head back by his hair and under the gazes of many slit his neck like a crazy bastard.
The crazy smile that was plastered on his face while he did so horrified the corwd as they all subconsciously took a few steps back.
Jin found a gap in the crowd as a result and immediately rushed out of the scene. No one dared to chase him.
