[Sean's POV]
Me and Ervin are currently heading to the place where the other members who want to take revenge against Raven are suppose to be waiting.
Ervin is leading me there...
I did agree on Ervin's suggestion this morning because I liked his words.
But after calming down, I thought that...
'There's also a chance that Ervin is deceiving me...'
And with that in mind, I started watching his movements more closely.
If I ever saw Ervin do something suspicious, I'll immediately snap his neck and kill him!
"Are you okay, Sean?"
As we were walking, Ervin looked back at me and asked.
"Yes, I'm fine."
I casually replied.
Then I looked around with a frown.
"And where the hell are we going?"
And I asked Ervin.
We're currently climbing up a dead mountain...
I'm calling it a dead mountain because I didn't see nor even sense a single living creature on the way up here!
There are only few trees around and all of them seems to be either dead or dying!
Only me and Ervin are well and alive in this mountain!
"In the middle of the mountain, the others are there."
Ervin then replied to my question earlier.
"We voted and picked this place as a temporary hideout as there is no any living creature staying in this mountain."
He then explained to me.
"The other guys voted?"
I asked again.
And Ervin just nodded his head as a respond.
'So that means that this place wasn't solely picked by Ervin.'
I felt much safer and relieved after knowing that.
Anyway, I continued following Ervin while being on guard.
I can't still trust him fully for some reason.
...
...
And after a while, we reached our destination.
'Nothing happened...'
I thought.
I wasn't ambush, and Ervin didn't even try to attack me.
In fact, he answered all of my questions while we're on our way up here.
'Am I over thinking things because of my fear to Raven...?'
There's a high chance too that that's the case.
'For fuck's sake, I hope this ends after killing that bitch!'
I exclaimed inwardly before looking at Ervin.
"Where are the others?"
I asked him.
"There."
Ervin answered and pointed toward a cave. No, beside the cave, there's a small hut...
And outside the hut, I can see several familiar faces.
Including that bitch Barry!
"Looks like they were waiting for your arrival."
Ervin said as he looked at me with a smile.
"Let's go, and lead them again."
He added.
Then with a smile on my face...
"Lately, I'm starting to like you more."
I said to Ervin.
"Maybe because now, we have the same goal."
Then he casually replied.
"Then let's go meet them."
After that, we started walking toward the others.
***
After entering the hut with the others...
"Sean, it's nice seeing you again!"
Barry exclaimed to me.
"It's nice seeing you too, bitch."
I responded to him.
At my words, Barry shyly bowed his head...
But I don't care!
I can still remember him trying to switch to Raven's side when we were losing!
I want to kill him right now, but because Raven didn't accept him.
It means that Barry has no choice but to go against Raven too.
'We're in the same situation so...'
I can still use him.
Anyway, there's a total of 11 people inside the hut, including me and Ervin.
And there were only a table and some chairs inside.
And on top of the table, there are iced coffees for everyone...
'Lucky, I'm getting kinda thirsty after climbing all the way up here...'
I thought, and reached one of the iced coffees for myself.
"Leader!"
"It's nice seeing you again!"
"We'll follow you again to kill that bitch!"
It was then, the others greeted me with respect.
'They doesn't seems to be lying...'
So I smiled at them.
"I'll happily lead you guys again..."
I mumbled.
"And we're gonna destroy Raven!"
Then I exclaimed!
""YEAH!!!""
And everyone, except Ervin and Barry, replied in unison.
As I was having fun with the respects I'm getting from the idiots in the room.
"Sean, I think we should start thinking of a plan on how to take revenge on Raven..."
Barry whispered to me.
And his voice is annoying me.
So I threw a death glare at him, making him flinch.
But Barry immediately opened his mouth.
"All of us here, except Ervin, are currently in house arrest... Including you."
"Sooner or later, the federation would notice that we escaped and start searching for us!"
Barry stated.
'I don't want to admit it, but he have a point...'
I thought before looking at the others, they're looking at me too, and their eyes are shining with admiration aimed at me.
Then I shifted my gaze to Ervin, who's looking at me like an idiot.
"Let's start the meeting."
I declared.
And when everyone heard that, their faces went serious.
...
After that, we all started giving our opinions as we are slowly building up a fool proof plan to take revenge on Raven!
...
"Man, I'm starting to like this drink..."
I mumbled while looking at the iced coffee in my hand.
"Me too."
Barry said.
""We like it too!""
And the others agreed on me.
"I'm glad you guys liked it."
Ervin then muttered.
"Yeah, you should've brought more of this."
I replied to him.
And at my words, Ervin frowned a little.
And I noticed that he's quite displeased at my words.
"Eh? Why? You don't like my words?"
I asked Ervin while placing my left palm on his left cheek.
Tap- Tap- Tap-
"Aren't you being too arrogant just because I'm being kind to you?"
I asked him as lightly slapped Ervin's cheek repeatedly.
I really like the feeling I'm getting when I'm abusing Ervin.
So with a sly smile...
"You're just my dog, and you're only suppose to please me."
""HAHAHAHA!!!""
I muttered to him, and the others laughed at my words.
So, I sent a stronger slap at Ervin, aiming at his mouth!
Swoosh-
Bam-!
Though, even before my palm can reach Ervin.
He raised his right hand and caught my left hand.
"!"
"Eh?"
I was surprised at Ervin's action, even the others are.
"I've had enough..."
Ervin mumbled.
"I've already done all my part in his plan..."
He added.
"So I can now do anything I want, right?"
Ervin asked.
Then he looked at me with a crazed smile.
Swoosh-
BAM-!
And he punched me in the face!
"Keouk...!"
Making me let out a pained groan and sending me skidding a meter away from him!
Drip- drip-
And when I realized what happened, I felt something dripping out of my nose.
...It was blood.
""Leader!""
"Sean!"
The others quickly went to my side, including Barry.
Then we all looked at Ervin with disbelief.
"HAHAHAHAHA!"
And before we can even say anything.
We heard a loud laugh coming from the outside of the hut.
Our eyes shifted to the door of the place.
Then...
Boom-!
Someone forcefully opened the door with brute force!
And dust near the door scattered, making a thick dust cloud, and hiding the face of who did it.
Tap. Tap. Tap.
Then that individual started walking in.
"Of course you could do anything you want, Ervin."
The individual said, based on his voice, the person is a man.
"Just don't kill Sean and Barry."
Then individual added.
I was about to be relieved by his words...
"Because I'll kill them myself."
But then he added.
And then, the dust cloud around him started disappearing.
"!"
And when it was completely gone.
We all got surprised when we saw who arrived.
He was a very familiar person, and we wouldn't forget who he is from the rest of our lives!
"You..."
"Yo, it's nice seeing you again, Barry, Sean, and extras."
Raven greeted us with a smile on his face.
