Master was out of the patient. ''Listen to me boy. I am not here to
listen to your courtesies. Finish it off and tell me the god dammed location.
'' As you command''
said Clipp.
''I need another favor
if you don't mind'' said Clipp looking up at Master like a little child looking
at his giant father.
'' I'll ask stronghead here to open up your brain and send
it to your father in his grave. 'You have eaten enough, now tell me where the
damnable key is” said, Master. Clipp
could feel the tightness around Master's mouth, the lust to possess what seems to be a treasure of a great expense.
Clipp had a different concern, though.
‘‘Send Blue to get a
glass of water for me and I swear I will tell you everything after I slaked my
thirst'' he said.
Master was puzzled. He
could not make a sense if this.
‘‘You said you will
give me what I want if I gave you what you want. Is that what you what?-food?''
asked Master.
'' I'll tell you what
I want as soon as I slaked my thirst'' said Clipp mischievously.
In the course of his
stay here, Clipp had noticed that it
takes thirteen minutes before someone could get to the kitchen which he thought
was just behind the door. Few minutes after Blue was gone, Clipp started to
shout with fury saying ''if I give you the key would it bring back my father?
I've waited for this moment. I swear to avenge him. What do you get by killing
people for some worldly pomp?'' shouted Clipp.
''Enough with it. What
do you know about the death of innocents?'' Master shouted back.
Master could still see
the face of that cruel man twisting a knife in his mother's stomach, laughing
like a maniac, kicking Master's dead little sister.
"Do you know how
many innocent people had died for nothing?'' he carried on. '' Your father got
involved in something much bigger than him'' he said turning his face to a
rectangular space on the wall which serves as a window. '' Besides that,
your father shouldn't be alive after being here'' he said after a small pause.
To that, he is telling the truth. Clipp
could feel that. Master himself doesn't know all the secret that lay in this underground world. ''Everyone
has his limit'' Friend would say when he speaks with Master over the phone.
Master had never seen friend yet friend sees him where ever he is. At least
that was what friend had told him. So Master calls him the almighty. '' I'll get you the key'' Master had
promised.
Now, as Master turned
his back facing the place which looked like a window, Clipp grabbed the knife
and the fork hitting away from the table
in front of him.
It was so sudden that
Master found it impossible to believe. Clipp had stabbed the knife through
Master's right eye and had butchered Ivy's throat with the fork. Clipp went out
of the Meeting Room. But that was only the beginning. Clipp found himself
running through an endless darkness- dark
as hell. His heart was pounding fast as ever. He was aware that if he keeps
running it will push out of his breast. But he had to see the end of the
darkness before Master could reach him. He did not see the end of the darkness,
however, then
he saw Master running toward him, holding his bleeding eye, a torchlight on his
hand. A sudden blow hit Clipp so hard that it made him collapsed on the floor.
He touched his forehead and felt some liquid running down. He runs his fingers around his chin and felt where
his teeth supposed to have been. The pain was so fierce that he was no longer
feeling anything. He could not tell whether he was alive or dead. The darkness
swallowed him and for a moment he lost all sensation.
