Extra Pages: The Author's Odyssey Chapter 43

42  Worst Nightmare [ 2 ] Gorge's worst nightmare had always been being overpowered and at the mercy of someone stronger and more ruthless than him. And now, it seemed like his worst fear had become a horrifying reality. Struggling to find his voice amidst the pain, Gorge replied through gritted teeth, "You... you won't get away with this, Lucas." Lucas grinned maliciously, his eyes burning with a sadistic flicker. "Oh, my dear Gorge, I believe I already have." Gorge's mind raced, desperately searching for a way out of this dire situation. He knew he had to buy himself some time, gather his strength, and come up with a plan. But as the pain seared through his body, it became increasingly harder to think clearly. Lucas, sensing Gorge's defiance, crouched down and grabbed a fistful of Gorge's hair, pulling his head back harshly. The excruciating pain shot through Gorge's skull, making his vision blur. "You see, Gorge, I've been watching you for quite some time now," Lucas hissed, his grip tightening even further. "I know all your weaknesses, your fears, your secrets. And trust me when I say, there's nowhere you can hide." Gorge's heart pounded erratically in his chest as fear and anger intertwined within him. He refused to let Lucas belittle him, to break him completely. Summoning all the strength he could muster, he spat defiantly, "You might think you have all the power, all the control, but you underestimate me, Lucas." A flicker of surprise crossed Lucas's face, but he quickly regained his composure. "Oh? Enlighten me then, Gorge. Show me what you're made of." Gorge's mind raced, searching desperately for a way out. He knew he couldn't rely on physical strength alone, that he had to use his wits to outsmart Lucas. With a sudden burst of determination, Gorge glanced around, noticing a shard of old glass from a shattered nearby lying on the ground. Summoning his remaining energy, Gorge distracted Lucas, feigning weakness. As Lucas loosened his grip slightly, Gorge swiftly grabbed the shard of glass and tried to plunge it into Lucas's leg, but Lucas already saw that long ago. In an instant, Lucas countered, driving the glass shard into Gorge's thigh with a vicious thrust. Gorge howled in pain as fresh agony surged through his body. Gorge's world had narrowed down to pain and fear as he lay there, overpowered and at Lucas's merciless mercy. It was a nightmare come to life, and he struggled to form words amidst the agony. "You... you won't get away with this, Lucas," he managed to force out through gritted teeth. Gorge's mind raced, desperately seeking an escape from this torturous predicament. He needed time to think, to regain his strength, to find a way out. But the pain, relentless and brutal, made it increasingly difficult to focus. Sensing Gorge's defiance, Lucas crouched down, seizing a fistful of his hair, and yanked his head back viciously. That caressing turned into a slap in less than a second. -Slap! ɪꜰ ʏᴏᴜ ᴡᴀɴᴛ ᴛᴏ ʀᴇᴀᴅ ᴍᴏʀᴇ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs, ᴘʟᴇᴀsᴇ ᴠɪsɪᴛ 𝘯𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭•𝘧𝘪𝘳𝘦•𝘯𝘦𝘵 The searing pain lanced through Gorge's skull, his vision momentarily blurring. Gorge's heart hammered in his chest, anger and fear warring within him. Lucas was unrelenting, his anger burning. He needed answers, and he needed them now. "Why, Gorge?" Lucas demanded, his voice dripping with menace. "Why did you attack me? Who sent you?" Deep in his heart, he knew, that he meddled with the wrong person. He decided to surrender. 'He will beat me up for a while but that's it. He'll leave after taking out this frustration. It's better to bear with it here...I don't wanna fight this guy.' he thought. He made his decision. Through gritted teeth and with immense pain, Gorge finally yielded. "Hora Brack... it was Hora Brack. He's one of Aric's henchmen." Lucas's eyes narrowed with suspicion. "Did Aric order this?" Gorge nodded weakly, barely able to muster the strength to move his head. Lucas felt a mix of shock and anger. Aric, one of the main characters, was targeting him. The revelation was a troubling one, but Lucas's shock quickly gave way to fury. Drawing a shaky breath, Lucas leaned in closer to Gorge, his voice laced with menace. "You're going to tell me everything, Gorge. And you're going to start with why Aric doing this to me." He had questions, and he intended to get answers. But Lucas all hope turned into dust. "I don't know anything about them, they are way higher ranked than me, I just take orders from them that's all." He was telling the truth, Lucas knew that too. Besides Gorge Is at G+ rank and he is at F+ one. But the academy and other instructors did not know that. In their eyes, he was Just F- a ranked student nothing more. That's why even Gorge was mighty in front of Lucas, he thought that his backing would keep him safe but he didn't know that Lucas didn't care shit about anything. "I see, You are telling the truth this time." Lucas paused for a moment. "I will let you go now But…if you tried to take my name and get me expelled then remember one thing; after leaving this academy I will be out in the world, the same world where you will be. And that time I won't be bound by any laws to stop me from killing you. You know what I mean, right? I hope you do." "Y-You…a-are, messed up!" Gorge muttered. He threw Gorge to the ground; the crash caused him to fall unconscious. Lucas then turned toward Vikas and Ajay; both of them were still lying on the ground due to their injury. He walked close to them and as he did, both of them started saying their prayers. Maybe it was their turn now. When Lucas reached there he said. "Don't worry, I won't bite." 'That's a myth,' Vikas thought as he stood up on his own, without taking Lucas's hand. "What happened to him?" Lucas asked as he looked at Ajay who was still on the ground. "His lights went out when he saw what you did with Gorge." "Anyway, now you go and call someone from the academy for help. Oh! And don't tell them what happened, just tell them that a fight broke out," said Lucas. Grabbing Ajay who was still unconscious Vikas ran with him Gorge was also running a bit slowly after taking all the beating from Lucas. Seeing them running away from him Lucas muttered. "Finally killed some mouse."
