The lightning fast whip had been caught in Gary’s hand. When Dazza would use the weapon, the others couldn't even see the end of it, only hearing the loud noise that would come after. Which made them wonder, how was Gary able to keep track of it, and how could he be so fearless to grab it.
“Hey, do you think you could do something like that?”
“Not even if I had a full stomach do I think I could do something like that.”
“Is Earny okay though, I think I saw blood.”
“We might have to worry about a lot more than just Earny, just what does the green haired kid think he’s going to do, he caught the whip, now what?”
Dazza attempted to pull the whip out of Gary’s hand, but his grip was so tight that he was unable to do anything. Feeling such strength, there was a small bead of sweat coming from Dazza’s forehead, and it wasn’t from him overworking himself with the whip from before.
“What are you doing? Dazza asked, his voice not as angry as it was from before. “We still have nine whips left, that was part of the deal right?”
Gary tugged on the whip slightly. Rather than holding it in the air, he pulled it down to his right side, thus pulling Dazza forward since he was still holding onto the other end. Dazza stumbled a little and was wondering if holding onto the whip was such a good idea.
“You have pretty sh*t aim, you hit the old man.” Gary said. “Or is it, you have a very good aim and were actually going for him on purpose?”
Dazza noticed that his hand was shaking, he grabbed it with his other arm, to stabilise it.
‘What is going on, why am I so scared? I am a member of the Scavengers in a place , and I have the others around me… it's because of the way he’s looking at me, he’s looking at me, like a disobedient dog!’
“Hey, Miguel!” Dazza shouted. “Call the head office, and let them know that we have a rebellion going on in this factory. Say all of the workers have decided to go a bit wild.”
There were nervous looks on the faces of the workers behind them. How was this going to affect them, did this mean all of them would no longer have a job?
“What rebellion!” One woman shouted. “We haven’t done anything, we did everything you said, we allowed you to search us, and we never took any crystals, why are you punishing us!”
“If anything, it should only be Earny and the green haired that get punished… we need our jobs, we need to live!” Another shouted.
“Hey, Greeny!” Elijah shouted. “I know the situation isn’t the best right now, with people turning on you, but the old man, I don’t think he’s doing too well, we're going to have to take him to a hospital or something.”
Dazza was now laughing at the whole situation.
“Haha look at this, I don't care what you say. Do you think your jobs were irreplaceable? That we couldn't find others to do the same things as you? No, we have countless people outside that are lining up to do your jobs.
“You guys can blame yourselves for not stopping one of you, for looking at me with such wild eyes, and when I’m done with him, feel free to do whatever you want with him.”
Some of the workers fell to their knees in shock, while others continued to shout at Gary, Earny and Elijah for stepping forward, for going against the gang.
“SHUT UP!” Gary said at the top of his lungs, that echoed throughout the factory and silenced everyone in the room. “That old man Earny, who looked after us, and has been working by your side for how long, is dying, and you still stick up for these people.
“You still want to work for them? These people that treat you worse than animals, that say all of you are replaceable, you really want to help and stick up for people like that.”
“We don’t have a choice!” One of the women screamed. “ What choice do we have?”
Gary lifted his head and looked straight toward Dazza, he then shifted his feet as he leapt across the room at great speed, he clenched his fist and threw it out hitting Dazza right in the head. He was unable to do anything as his teeth were seen falling out and his body flying in the air crashing into one the machines behind him.
Smoke poured out from the machine while some wires started to spark.
“You said, there are nine whips left right, then let me do the last whips!” Gary swung the whip that was in his hand, hitting the other men in the face, one after the other. Deep cuts appeared on their faces as they screamed in pain.
“I understand you don’t have a choice, so I will give you one. I wanted to buy this factory but failed to do so, so instead, I’ll give you the choice to leave this city, and come work for me. I promise I’ll treat you all well.”
For Gary to say those words, they wondered who he was, from the way he dealt with the five gang members he couldn't be an ordinary individual, but he was also too young, could they trust this person?
“We need to do something fast, no doubt the other gang members are going to be here at any moment. I know you beat those five but do you really think you can take on a whole gang by yourself!” Elijah asked.
Perhaps if it was just the Scavengers, then Gary would have answered yes, but depending on who was backing them, then probably not. When looking around the room though he saw that there were crates filled with minerals and filled with beast crystals.
“I’m just going to go on a little feast first, and then I’ll deal with whoever comes through that door.”
