Chapter 3

3886 Words
Everything went silent for a second there, in the entire factory, and now, as Vincent landed right on his face. And it was right then that suddenly the old man heard a loud crackle of a sound as he landed down on the floor, but at the same time as he heard that sound, there was also a sharp pain that he felt in his nose as well. pure agony it was for him. “Aaah……...shit.” He let out almost immediately, and he shut his eyes tight in pain. And at that moment, the man had broken his nose when as he fell right down on the strong concrete floor. And at this moment his senses were shuffling everywhere. Right now nothing made any sense to him at all at that moment, and nothing felt like it would any more. However, at this very moment, Vincent couldn’t help but feel a heavy buzzing sound in his ears and now even more so as it was gradually getting louder but then slowly calming down as well, on its own. But it was very slow that it took time an its own pace. How ever, as that buzzing sound had stopped around Vincent, something else took its place right then, and right at that moment he heard loud foot steps coming closer and towards him, so fast now that his heart started to beat faster than ever. Almost as if this old man was about to have a heart attack or something. And right at that moment, when he found out that the sound was getting close to him, without wasting a second there Vincent turned around with fear in his eyes and laid there on his back and horror now completely consuming his face entirely. He couldn't even understand how fast Jude was, but right there, he saw Jude making his way towards him, but that was not what scared the old man at all. Because there was something else that did, what scared Vincent. That beinf the look that Jude had on his face the entire time. And there he saw the want there was blood and pain in Jude’s eyes. He was seeing the demon inside of him, the same demon that the world had always talked about, that Vincent himself had many times heard of, even seen multiple times in his life too. But today he was seeing the same rage, now that was for him this time. That part of it was new and deadly as well. And now those eyes were making their way towards Vincent, shocking him more over. “No….. NO JUDE, NO………I……..I mean my lord, my lo….rd.” Vincent said and now his voice breaking and he was shivering while the man begged and, at the same time, he was now backing away from the Mafia Lord as well. However, Vincent was no longer putting all of his strength in his hands, but rather his hands were joined together as he was begging and pleading for Jude to stop right there. He was now crying and screaming as Jude was getting even closer and closer to Vincent. But what Vincent truly saw in front of his eyes was a man who was not interested in listening to him anymore. He understood that this was not going to work for him and his life was flashing before his eyes. Jude was still making his way towards him and this was when Vincent understood that he couldn't stay there any longer, he had to get out and get help, run from there and Jude. Understanding that there would be no mercy, that he was going to be shown by Jude. And right then, immediately, Vincent turned around in a swift movement and started crawling forward, or at least, he was trying to get up, but his agony, paranoia and all sorts of fear and stress that he was taking with him and now he was not able to do anything rational with himself. His mind was so fogged that he couldn’t even control his body. He couldn't even get up, even if he wanted to. However, Jude was quickly walking towards him when suddenly his eyes quickly landed on something, something shining in the corner of his eyes, and even before Jude could reach Vincent, he right then stopped on his track right at that very moment and kept his eyes on the shiny object. Now his breath was still very heavy and his hand fisted into a ball as Jude’s knuckles were turning white, and his veins getting out of his hands. Slowly, then Jude moved closer to the sparkling object that was completely covered in a dusty old rug. Jude immediately grabbed on to that old thing and quickly moved it away, as the rug flew up and dust was also flying everywhere along with it. And right then it had landed right on the ground, while immediately Jude saw a large hammer in front of him. However, right beside the hammer there he saw a lot more other things that might have been used for this factory, but he did not seem to be more concerned about them one bit. Quickly, Jude walked towards Vincent and saw the poor man still crawling, and he was still striving to get away from him and for his life as well. But that did not seem to be working out for Vincent. How ever, for Jude though, there was always a level of anger he did not want to get out. But this time, this time, nothing and no one was going to stop him from unleashing what he was truly feeling and that he wanted to let out into the world and on to Vincent. Quickly, Jude grabbed on to the hammer and did not take his eyes away from Vincent. the hammer though, it was terribly heavy looking, but it did not seem to have bothered Jude a bit. Still walking towards the man, Jude loudly slammed the hammer down on the ground and with it came a loud slam, and a loud thud of a noise that echoed through out the factory and went on and on and on, never stopping at one place. However, the second that sound reached to Vincent, the man flinched in his place as his eyes went wide open as a strange realization hit him in his gut. Yet not realizing what it could be. But it was just pure fear that he was holding inside of him that was still making him shiver. And slowly then Vincent turned around looking at what Jude was holding in his hand and that was when his eyes landed on him and his hand. As now the old man’s froze in his place, Vincent was now whining and at the same time, he was also shivering, and sweat had started to pour down his face. Vincent had gone completely pale at this moment, and it was as if the color of his face had left him almost immediately. “N…o no, Jude no. Th…is was not all because of me….. No… it was Santo, Santo was the one that made…… he made me do it….. i……t was all him Jude. HE TOLD ME TO DO WHATEVER…. PLEASE.” He screamed panicking right in front of Jude. “Jude, he told me to do whatever I wanted, that………..tha……..that he will take care of the matter. I was only listening to him, Jude. Pl……….ease please.. my lord.” He said and now starting to beg, and also trying to slide away to the corner, far from him. But Vincent just could not move his muscle even if he wanted to do so. Vincent was scared that the hammer could break his hands and so he was putting his hands away and back, but now his face was exposed, and now he was also scared that Jude would slam his head with the hammer, and just for that he was placing his hand on his face yet. The man seemed confused in fear, his mind and body all messed up as ever and completely he was shaken up. Right now, he was not truly able to grasp what was going to happen next to him, but Vincent very clearly knew that it was going to hurt in the most brutal way possible. “Please, Jude…. don't do this. PLEASEEEE… DON’T HURT ME. It will hurt Jude. Just JUST SHOOT ME, SHOOT ME…. right on the forehead.” Vincent said, and now his body went into a strange phase. And right at that moment the old man came up with the idea of the gun. He looked up at Jude, a strange scared smile on his face. “Shoot me right here.” Vincent said, pointing at his forehead. “Just put that down Jude, please put that down. There is a gun right there.” He said, moving his hand towards the gun, as he was pointing to his old one right ahead of him. But Jude did not even stop for a second there because nothing said mattered to him, and also because nothing was going to make Jude shoot Vincent, that would be too easy. However, Vincent, on the other hand, he saw very clearly that Jude wasn't stopping or rethinking about his decision, and he was now right there, right next to him. “No, NO…..” Vincent screamed through his lungs, curling himself into a ball and protecting himself and his body as well, mostly for the impact to come, and Jude saw all that happening right in front of him. He was seeing this man crying, screaming for help, and now begging as well, something that Jude had been dying to see for years, and here he was, how he should be. However, the moment the Lord reached Vincent, immediately he halted right there on his track, looking at the man begging for help. He stood there for a second watching the entire scene right in front of him. However, as Vincent waited for his death to come to him, and yet here it did not come and there was nothing that he feel or heard. And this confused the old man. Never the less, Jude, on the other hand, he did not want to hurt him like this, not until he looked up and met his eyes. And that is what Vincent did. As he slowly he opened both his eyes and pulled his head away from his hands as he looked up at Jude, seeing that he was not doing anything to him at all, but just staring down. “Jude please……..” He whispered to him, as the Mafia Lord listened to him very carefully and slowly, very gradually Jude nodded his head. “That is exactly what Rafe might have said to you, right?. That is exactly what he might have said over and over again to your men when they were hurting his wife, when they were hurting him. He was begging for his life and his family's life, begging for you to stop. Begging to let go and now just for family. But I can clearly see that you showed them no mercy.” Jude let out, letting him know that where he was now and what position he had put that family was all the same. They were begging for humanity back and, at this very moment, Vincent was begging for mercy right now. Slowly turning away from him, Jude looked away and watched the body of his friend that was slowly rotting away in the distance and there were flies flying around him. However, that sight of him going that way, burnt the Lord's heart as he noticed his friend like that on the ground. This was not what he deserved at all and it was no way to die. Jude then looked back up at Vincent. Vincent was simply shaking his head, and now crying like a small child. He felt weak and fear was eating him up, what it seemed like to him. “My lord my children…” He was whispering softly and Jude though, he looked away from his friend and list3ened to Vincent very carefully. However, his words now, they made Jude smile to him. “What children?" He whispered. "You have already written up their faith too, Vincent. Why are you even thinking about them any more? You sealed their faith with your own hands. You did this to yourself and them.” Jude said to him, and as Vincent heard him, he started shivering in fear. “No please, please my boys…..” He said. And now exactly saying what the dead man might have said one time before. However, Jude couldn't help but stare back at him for a few seconds. As the small smile on Jude’s face completely disappeared. “I am not you, Vincent. I deal with my problems and people face to face. I never involved family and children into this and don’t worry, they will all be forever under my protection for as long as they live and as long as Roa family lives. They will be under my protection because you will never be able to protect them ever again, not in this life at least.” Jude let him know. And However, as those words came out of Jude, Vincent couldn't help but feel a slight gratitude, as the crying man let out a small breath. When he understood that his family was going to be safe, or at least his boys were going to be safe. “Thank you…….. thank you so much Jude, thank you. And I promise you that I am going to end this.......whatever this is with Santo. I will end his entire contract with him, and now my life will belongs to you and you only, for… forever Jude. Forever, I am now loyal to you Jude, thank you so much.” Vincent let him, know begging yet again and said his wishes over and over again, quickly he was now crawling closer towards Jude, as he wrapped his arms around his legs placing his head on his feet, and now saying “thank you” over and over again. However, the Mafia Lord could very well see through all of his shit, and he knew how Vincent so well as well. Jude always understood and knew how loyal man and woman looked like and that responsibility was something that Jude did not ever see, that understanding in Vincent’s eyes. Not ever in all these years Jude has known him. Vincent did not know the meaning of the word. “You can thank me all you want, Vincent, but that was only for your family.” Jude said to him softly, and now he was being as calm as he could be. This was only surprising to Vincent even more so, as the man stopped chanting what he was chanting, and slowly looked up from his feet and up there to Jude. However, without any warning or so, Jude kicked Vincent in the chest and forcefully pushed him away from his legs. “AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH, FUCK.” Vincent screamed, holding on to his chest and his body started rolling away. It was painfully for him as he paced his hands close to his heart. “Jude, what are you doing?.” He asked, and Jude wasn’t in the mood to answer his question. He immediately started to circle around Vincent’s weak body, circling like Jude was the Lion there and he was walking around his pray, ready to go for the kill. And fortunately Jude knew he could not run away. Vincent was seeing that he was in no position to do the running as well. “Jude, no, please, please.” Vincent said, yet again. Not being able to bring out any other words out of him. But immediately Jude instantly picked up the hammer and right then he then slammed it right on Vincent’s left knee. Slamming it and crushing his bones almost immediately. “AAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH RRRRRRRRRHHHHHHHH.” Vincent let out an ear piercing scream, yelling out in pain, and now Vincent did not even understand anything anymore. He couldn't even hear himself as he screamed out loud and he was screaming in such madness and in agony that Vincent was feeling but at the same time he was also completely shaken up at this very second. But before he could say anything, right then Jude, at that moment picked up the hammer yet again. “Ahhhhhh.” Jude let out a loud scream out of his mouth as the man let go all of his anger on Vincent and slammed the hammer once again, but this time it was on his feet, crushing his feet as well, “AAAAAAAAAAAA NNNNNNNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOO……….” Jude almost immediately made him feel all sorts of pain and with all of his strength as well. And now Vincent’s feet looked so flat as his logs laid there on the ground. And right then Jude noticed that there was also blood pouring down from his legs as Jude backed away from him and he stood back, only watching what he had just done to the man, only to see that Vincent’s screams were getting even louder and louder, and Jude just did not care one bit at all. Jude very well knew that the pain he was going through was killing him inside and he loved hearing him screaming like that, but it did not even seem like a human scream to him anymore. It seemed like an animal would have let it out and that is exactly how it should be sounding. Because Vincent was not a human at all, and now not even an animal, he was nothing right about now. And he should not be treated as a human. “I am not going to kill you Vincent," Noah let out, and there was o sympathy in his voice this time. Jude too seemed and sounded very dead now. "Your death is not written by my hand and it is definitely not written through a gun. That would be too easy of a death for you, that would be an easy way out for you and I am not going to let that come your way. I am just going to make you suffer and let you live. You have to live as long as you can, and I will finally give you up to your family, to the family that you could never take care of.” He said, walking around him. “I know Vincent, I know what you do in your house. I know how you treat your mother, your wife, even your daughters, but I know how you treat your sons. How your boys are everything to you, but now after you being as useless as you are right now, do you know what will happen to you? Now, you will get to know who your real family is. And when your sons see how they have nothing to gain from you ever again, let’s see how long they will keep you under them, feed you, take care of you and then you will know the reality of what your life is, the life you have made for yourself. There will be one day when some one will kill you Vincent, but that is not going to be me. And maybe it will even be your own family, your own boys that might kill you. Understanding that you are no longer of any use to them and to that family. And how you are worthless right now. Your death is definitely written Vincent, but it will be long, painful and it will be never ending for you. But when it does end, you will still not find peace.” Jude let him know the truth about his life. As he slowly was now walking closer towards Vincent who was crawling down and his face on the ground as the old man now rubbing his face on the dirt, clearly not being able to understand the world around him anymore. He was losing all of his senses, and more over he was losing his mind as well. But never the less, he heard Jude loud and clear and right then Jude again picked up the hammer and stood right in between, and without any warning or so. Jude picked up the hammer and slammed it right on his lower back, immediately shattering his backbone right there and then. Jude could hear his bones cracking loud enough now. How over, his loud scream came out right on time, and this time they were so loud, that the windows had started shaking. Jude, on the other hand, he kept the hammer there and still on him. And as the hammer collided on the backbone, Jude saw how his back was shattered entirely, blood all over the place, his screams near stopping, this was his hell. And it was then that Jude finally let out a short breath, truly pleased with what he had done. Understanding that this was not justice in anyway and that was true, but sometimes justice is not enough. Immediately Jude then picked up the hammer that was now covered entirely in Vincent's blood and flesh at the moment. And right then, as Jude knew that he had done enough now, and immediately he threw the hammer away, far away from Vincent, loudly as the metal landed on something and back on the ground. But at that very moment, it was only that sound of iron was what Jude could hear. All because right now, all that was coming from Vincent was soft moans, because he was too tired from screaming and it seemed like his throat hurt. More over the blood lose was tiring the man up. But right now, because of shock that he was in and his body had gone through. And all of that he was still going through. He was fading into unconsciousness but still awake some how. And for some time now Vincent was feeling everything. How ever, right now maybe it was not the same, he could not feel anything anymore, because Jude very well knew what he had done to Vincent. Slowly the Mafia Lord stepped always from the pathetic man Vincent was now, and he knew that this old man would no longer have his life as it was to him before. And as he backed away from Vincent, Jude saw him on the ground, and noticed from a far how his entire lower half of his body looked, stuck and flat, bleeding and unmoving. The Mafia lord had given him a punishment for everything Vincent had ever done all his life, and how he had hurt his own people and also so many countable people in this world. This had to happen to him. Vincent was only getting what he deserved in this life. But this was only the beginning for him, and of what was to come to him. Jude knew that very well this time and he wanted for Vincent to suffer.
