Chapter 17 - Chapter 16: Blonde Hunter (2)

Velvet Pub Paradise, a famous bar located in city A. . .

Loud music surrounds the area, adding to the vibe of wildness as the people dance crazily and drink freely. On the corner, there is a woman sitting alone, sipping her cocktail lazily and watching the world in front of her nonchalantly. Feeling so bored. 

The woman was so beautiful in her saquin dress with her simple night make-up, red heart-shaped lips, and those eye-catching long blonde hairs. With just one glance. A certified bombshell.

After a while, a man with a handsome feature who wore a polo that was unbuttoned in the first three buttons wore black pants, black shoes, and had slicked black hair, approached the woman.

"Hey there, pretty lady, want some company?" The man said to the woman.

The woman just smiled—which is in the perspective of the man—seductively. 

She slightly raised her hand that was holding his cocktail glass, taking a sip on it.

"Why not." Upon hearing the woman agree, the man immediately sat beside her. Then he called for a waiter to order more alcohol. 

While the man was ordering, the woman whispered while pretending to sip again from her cup while his other hand touched the emerald earring on her right ear.

"The target takes the bait."

"Proceed to the plan. I want you to finish this immediately, Avery." The cold voice of Dark sounded from the emerald earring that she wore.

"Roger." Avery responded. 

After reporting, she looked at the man, "What did you order?" 

The man standing in front of Avery is today's most notorious serial killer, known as the Blonde Hunter—also their target.

"Martinis for you and Kamikaze for me. I also ordered some snacks, so don't worry. Let's just enjoy the night." the man answered.

"By the way, I'm Thomas Garcia. How about yours, my pretty lady?" Thomas continued.

Avery laughed exaggeratedly, enticing Thomas more. 

Thomas now thought that he could get this blonde easily. His obsession surfaced a bit which Avery noticed but didn't act like she saw it.

"Ow, your mouth's sweet, Julia. I'm Julia Montes. Nice to meet you too." she said as she reached her hand to Thomas indicating that she wanted a handshake.

Thomas took the hand. 

Upon holding Julia's hand, he squeezed it tightly then put it through his lips and kissed it giving Julia a seductive smile.

'Gross, I need to disinfect later.' Avery thought silently, grimacing.

After a while of drinking and enjoying the moment, when Thomas saw that Julia was already 'drunk'. He hugged him and pulled her towards his arms.

"You're drunk. Come on, I'll help you." Thomas said, not hiding his hideous smile.

Due to the drunkenness', Julia only complied because she felt her body so weak that's why she couldn't resist. 

When Thomas led Julia into the exit at the back and saw a car park in there, she struggled. But Thomas didn't let her go. He tightened his grip that was holding her. He brought out a handkerchief from his pocket and used it violently to cover her mouth and nose. Because of the chloroform that Thomas put in it, Julia blacked out. Unwillingness and helplessness are evident in her lovely face. 

Catching Julia, Thomas shows his true face. The smile within it was so hideous and you can see the obsessiveness that it portrays within his eyes.

"Don't worry, you'll enjoy it." Thomas said wickedly. 

He laughed loudly, and then, he picked Julia up and brought her into his car, driving out—who knows where.

Thomas got a bucket of iced cold water that he prepared on the side. Without any hesitation, he splashed it on Julia, who was tied to the chair.

"Ahh... where am I?" Julia asks grogily while eyeing the room, which looks like a stockroom within a farm.

She saw many farming tools that were hanging up through the walls. Several bundled hay on the side. What shocked her the most is that seeing several tools for torture that lay on the table. They were smudged with blood. Not only that, most of the hay—-especially under the table—- had traces of blood on them.

'What the hell, is this where he does the deeds? ' Avery thought.

"You—what do you want?" Avery, who is acting as Julia, shouted at Thomas, who only laughed crazily.

"Are you familiar with the serial killer who is known as the Blonde Hunter? Guess who I am dear." Thomas replied teasingly to Avery while slowly approaching where Avery's at. At the same time, pulling out a sharp knife from his back.

Just as he was near Avery, even with her protest, he gripped Avery's face and traced the dagger on it which he earned a struggle from Avery.

"Why are you doing this? Let go of me!" Avery shouted. Still, struggling.

"HAHAHAHAHA!!! When I already catch you, you will never get out of here. Well, you can, but you're no longer breathing." Thomas said amusingly.

"Why me, please just let me go." Avery said weakly, pretending as if she's pleading helplessly with so much fear of dying.

Thomas smirked.

"Why? You ask me why? Hahahahaha, think about it. Recall what my previous victim's characteristics are." Thomas ambiguously answered. 

This time his voice is a little loud. 

"Y-you mean---"

"Yes. Yes! It's because of this!!" Thomas said crazily as he held Avery's blonde hair. Caressing it like it is the most precious thing in the world. 

Thomas kisses that hair which he holds.

"L-lunatic!!" Avery yelled as she struggled hard again.

"Lunatic? No, no, no dear. I'm just a romantic and artistic man who a blonde girl like you should choose. CHOOSE!!" Thomas yelled the last part as he suddenly gripped Avery's hair. 

Thomas then violently cut the rope, which tied Avery. He pulled her hard to get her to stand up, but he didn't expect the kick that he received within his jewels.

Thomas dropped to the ground, holding his jewels, groaning painfully. 

The knife that he is holding already fell on the ground.

"WHAT THE FUCK!!" Thomas cursed loudly.

"Took you long enough to untie me, you dogshit!!" Avery cursed as well.

She untied the pin that tightly bound the wig into her hair. She threw it aside with a smirk when he saw Thomas's eyes widen with disbelief.

"What the fuck is going on?" Thomas screamed hysterically.

"Eh? Well, I'm here to get your head bastard." Avery said while taking out a gun out of nowhere.

She walks nearer to where Thomas is, while playing with her gun.

"Let's make this quick. Do confess now." Avery said with a bored voice.

"Don't fuck with me. I'm going to kill you first." Thomas yelled as he stood, aiming a small dagger at Avery that he pulled out of his shoes. 

But before Thomas reached Avery, she kicked him on his chin. Then she shot both of his legs. 

With a yell, Thomas dropped again into the ground. Blood poured out from his wounds.

"I did tell you to talk now, but what did you do?" Avery said calmly. 

She fired again, aiming towards Thomas's right shoulder, causing him to scream again.

"Talk now." Avery shot the other shoulder.

Breathing heavily, Thomas wondered what went wrong. He had thought that, just like with his previous victim, everything would go smoothly and he would enjoy himself again. Now he regretted choosing Julia—but is Julia really her true name?

"Just kill me." Thomas said firmly suddenly after a while of silence.

"Talk." Avery commanded again while picking up the dagger that Thomas dropped earlier.

"Just kill me!!" Thomas repeated.

"Don't waste my time. Talk!!" said Avery, plainly. Not giving up. 

Actually, she's enjoying how Thomas was acting now.

She squatted down near him and without hesitation, stabbed him through his side.

Thomas spurted blood through his mouth. 

Not getting any response, Avery's patient runs out. Thus, she continuously stabs him, not minding the blood squirting her way staining her dress and her lovely face.

"That's right, don't talk and let me enjoy stabbing you like this. Anyway, our client just wants you dead. I can just search your place for evidence you know." Avery said, full of malice. 

She's smirking maniacally now.

After she vented her frustration and saw that Thomas was not breathing, she slowly stood up and fished out her phone.

"It took you long enough." says the one on the phone.

"Shut it, Garrette." Avery snapped.

"Easy, babe." Garrete teases Avery.

"I said shut it!! I just lost it. Anyway, he's dead without giving any information. But don't worry, I'll find it." Avery said while cutting the call.

Avery began to explore the place, rummaging everywhere. But sadly, she found none.

After an hour of not giving up on searching, at last, she noticed a little slit within an old cabinet where Thomas put his different sizes of scalpel. 

She then knocked on that slit. She found that it sounded hollow, so she punched that cabinet without further ado.

She found a folder, a book, and several video tapes.

'Bingo!!' Avery thought while smirking.
