Chapter 7 3 Down

With a metal bar being swung diagonally towards the side of his head, Xavier, who had foreseen such a strike from the larger and enraged opponent, leant to the left.

Slipping the strike, narrowly avoiding it, he countered simultaneously with a rapid and explosive kick from his right leg.

As his foot struck his opponent's temple, there was a loud collision and instantly the burly man began stumbling backwards, shocking all the onlookers with his speed, flexibility, and skill.

The man, instantly being disorientated and stunned by the kick to the head, didn't even have time to think about what had happened before Xavier had pounced on him, forcing him to the ground.

Slamming his head against the ground as he was driven backwards, the man was helpless as Xavier began pounding his face viciously with his fists, as warm blood began to splatter all over his hands.

Instead of feeling any guilt, Xavier felt good and had a smile on his face under his ski mask, finally able to get revenge against one of the men that harassed, and even dared to slap, his mother.

And compared to what they had done, that beating was nothing, and they deserved much worse.

However, he only had a few seconds before the others reacted and also charged toward him, seeking to avenge their fallen companion and strike down the intruder.

Jumping off the burly man's lifeless body, Xavier was satisfied with the damage and beating he had dealt him as he picked up the metal pole he had been wielding and prepared to face the others.

Adrenaline coursed through his veins and his heart was pounding so rapidly it felt as though it was on the verge of leaping out of his chest. Causing him to feel more alert, focused, and capable than ever before, with it being one of the most heated moments of his life.

His pupils had dilated so much that they almost consumed his irises, allowing him to see everything as clearly as possible, while his body was scorching hot and all the fatigue from his previous exercise seemed to be non-existent.

-

"You're dead, asshole! Go and kill that fucker!" the boss of the small gang yelled at his subordinates.

He still remained seated and continued playing with the girl that rested on his lap and she appeared to be quite shaken by everything that was occurring, while all the other ruffians had gotten up.

Excluding the boss, Xavier had 9 opponents to keep an eye on, and obviously, they all couldn't attack him at once, and only 2 of them charged toward him at first.

Xavier tightly clasped the metal pole in his hands as he took deep breaths and waited for the right moment to make a move, like a predator observing its prey.

Despite being confident in his kickboxing skills, it was always easier to fight with a long weapon, allowing him to keep his distance from his opponents, and his time to pounce came in a matter of seconds.

As one of them neared him, Xavier launched himself towards him with as much power he could muster in his legs, then struck downwards on his head with the metal pole he was wielding.

Such a powerful downward strike to the forehead instantly split open his forehead, as blood began gushing out, also causing the larger man to lose consciousness, collapsing backwards.

However, while he struck down the goon that approached him first, the other punched him in his side and it landed cleanly, winding Xavier slightly as he backed away.

Taking on such strikes wasn't too hard, but against so many opponents, any damage he sustained would weaken him and was dangerous. Especially against opponents who were larger, heavier and likely stronger than himself.

-

Despite having already taken down two opponents, Xavier still hadn't let his guard down in the slightest, and knew that the real fight was just getting started.

Now, he no longer had the element of surprise and his opponents were no longer underestimating him, so they would be much more difficult to take down. While the opponents that were left all seemed to be more capable than the two he had taken out.

"Hahahaha! You intruded on our celebration and even dared to take down two of our members. I must say, you have balls. But. You won't make it out of here alive!" the man who had struck Xavier bellowed.

​ "Shut the fuck up, you dirty scumbag!" Xavier roared as he burst towards him, fainting a strike with the metal pole.

Putting his arms up and turning left to block the pole that his opponent seemed to be planning to strike him with, the thug definitely didn't expect Xavier to drop the metal pole and switch to a roundhouse kick to his side that was left wide open.

Then, after landing the kick, Xavier followed up with an explosive snap kick to the head, leaving the thug barely able to stand straight.

However, Xavier didn't stop there and unleashed a flurry of rapid punches onto his face, hitting the nail in the coffin and striking him down.

The difference in size and weight made it so that Xavier struggled to knock them out easily, but his skills made up for that and it became clear that he was definitely a force to be reckoned with, and the others no longer approached him.

'3 down. 7 more standing to take down, then their boss, he thought to himself, as he picked the bloodied metal pole back up.

Slowly moving backwards, making some distance between himself and the remaining opponents, Xavier sized them up and took deep breaths, trying his best to remain as level-headed as possible.

It felt as if there was a blazing inferno of rage within his heart that he wanted to unleash onto them, but he was still massively outnumbered and definitely wasn't invincible, with his right side throbbing after the punch he endured.

Xavier and his 7 standing opponents didn't make their move for a few seconds and in that time, he had caught his breath, while his opponents had armed themselves and began grouping together to surround and overwhelm him.

As they did so, no longer being able to suppress their fear and watch the intense battle continue, the skimpily dressed hookers in the room all began making their way out of the lounge.

Moving around the edges of the large room, they all rushed out in their heels and were scared out of their minds.

They had already been feeling uncomfortable and intimidated by the Black Hand Gang, which they had hidden, but they couldn't stay calm or quiet any longer.

And as they scrambled away as fast as they could, they caused a large commotion, screaming and telling everyone to get out of there.

-

"Damned bitches! If you're gonna leave, don't ruin my business and start screaming!" howled the boss of the Black Hand Gang, knowing that such a large commotion was very likely to alert the police and lose him a lot of customers.

There was quite a lot of blood on the ground and everything that was happening was certainly frightening, with an unknown individual, who was concealing his identity, gruesomely striking down the Black Hand Gang members.

So their reaction was to be expected.

However, the root cause of the problem was the intruder, and it made the boss of the Black Hand Gang even more inflamed.

"You will pay for this shit!"

"All of you break his limbs and bring him over to me. I will make sure he suffers a painful death for messing with us and causing us so much trouble," he instructed his subordinates, urging them to attack Xavier, who glared back at them all.

With the hindrances out of the room, Xavier tightly clasped the metal pole that was dripping blood as he prepared to take on the 7 opponents that were attempting to surround him.
