The young man stood there as if time completely froze. The sun dimmed as more shadows cascaded around the hunter in the forest. Night was approaching, and he needed to finish the job quickly before it was too late.
He looked around and saw nothing. No one was in sight but he knew something was out there. He remained calm like he was trained to. After quitting years ago, the hunter still had skill. He cursed himself for using it after he promised he wouldn't. Times have changed, and new events are to be taken place.
He heard the sound of moving branches, and he could feel a cold, deadly stare studying the young man. Where was it? He shifted his grey eyes to one location. He swore it was behind the rotting log, and he could almost hear it breathe. Pulling his sleeve,

The blonde grabbed his recently purchased precision from the cold floor, and he moved to his right. He sped past the thick bark, and easily jumped over small ferns. Visions entered his mind as his heart paced,

"Shit!"
He stopped and crouched low to the ground. One word proved he was right. A smile appeared on his clean shaven face,

Brush from the littered ground swept across his dark pants when he ran far behind the log. He made no sound when he was finally in range of his target. It was completely oblivious. The familiar feeling of control embedded inside his chest, and his grin widened. He looked at the sniper below. He was just a warm up against his rough edge before the real fight began.
The hill was high above the sniper as it searched for the hunter. He gazed through the lens,

The sniper tugged on his green collar as he began to perspire. Fear took him, and he knew death would come soon. It was a suicide mission and everyone knew it. Roy Nitz was a professional before he quit. Why didn't he murder him when he had the chance? He continued to move his magnified view hoping he would find Roy before it was too late.
He slowly walked down the hill watching the hired killer. This is what he came for? This is the reason why they slit his wife's throat, and watched her beautiful face turn cold? He needed to find the actual target, not this arrogant annoyance.
He pulled the rifle to his chest, and didn't bother to look into the lens. The anger was too unbearable. Roy let out a confident exhale, and aimed the barrow to the back of the sniper's head. He wondered if he had a family or even a child. Hatred boiled as he pushed away the curiosity. He and Kumiko were supposed to have a family. They were supposed to start a new life, and have an end to his past. But, no, they came back, and yearned for more.
"Drop it."
The sniper jumped and quickly turned around. In that moment, he'd forgotten his skills, and what his purpose was in life. He let go, and left the gun on its tripod, watching Roy with fearful eyes. The hunter looked at the younger man clasp his gloved hands around his neck to surrender. It was a depressing sight in his eyes.
Roy stood less than six feet from his enemy, and yelled in rage "Who are you?"
He could hear him breathe. He saw his chest pace up and down as the frightened man tried to remember his name. "...David Randal."
"And who hired you?"
He hesitated before answering, "You already know!"
A new feeling hit him. It wasn't of surprise, but a dreadful feeling of knowing who it was. No, not Gene. His old partner turned on him? Why? Does the fool really think he was going to suddenly appear in his life, and steal his beloved girl?
He stood there, and felt as if he wanted to cry and scream in agony at the same time. The sniper watched his changed expression, and waited for him to end his misery. Roy's rifle began to lower as his mind drifted from the current reality. Gene? What's gotten to his head? He suddenly snapped back, and his anger returned, "Where's the bastard?"
David was too frightened to answer much less to swallow his own saliva. His body began to tremble, exposing more of his weakness. He was only a trainee! He didn't know how to control his mind yet, and the rest of his team was somewhere dying in there own pool of blood.
He began to grow impatient. In a flash, the barrel moved to his leg, and pulled the trigger. A scream of pain filled the forest as blood oozed from his jeans. Time was running out, and Gene could already be gone, "Where is he?" His rough voice boomed.
The sniper bit his tongue, and grasped his leg, trying to stop the heavy flow. Tears ran down his dirty face as the pain grew. "I don't know!"
Roy exhaled again, and pulled the bolt once more. He aimed and another bullet shot out to his other leg. "I said where is he?"
Another loud scream was heard. It could've awaked small towns from the volume of his voice. More blood caked around his fingers, and felt like he was going to faint. "At number 06."
His forehead wrinkled, watching the wounded man. He remembered the place, but it's been a long time since he heard the name. Roy slowly nodded, and wondered if he should leave the liar. Gene wasn't there; something told him he wasn't. He glanced through the trees in front of him. Light was valuable at this time, and he needed to work faster.
He moved to the hunkered sniper, and smacked him with the butt of his rifle. His head could've crack by the blow but instead, he laid unconscious. Roy moved onto the next step, and listened carefully to the sounds around him. Nothing, completely silent. Gene was real close; his instincts told him.
The young retiree searched through the area. A winter breeze stung his eyes as he calmly looked around. Still nothing. He ran passed trees and more brush, not understanding if he was hunting or being hunted. He could only hear his paced heart from the hard run. Don't panic; he's here.
When he reached a small stream, dusk had already come and gone. He studied the clear opening on the ground, and noticed it was dry. No sign of Gene was anywhere. Maybe, he really was at number 06. Roy forced himself to remain calm until a loud shot cut through the night air.
He jumped back, and felt a sharp cut break his skin. He grabbed his arm, and grunted to block a scream. He had failed. Roy failed his mission, and his wife. He promised he would get revenge but lost!
His back slammed into a tree trunk, and his lungs caved in from the sudden lack of oxygen. His free hand tightly grasped the rifle, the weight becoming heavier by the second. Roy couldn't lift it up to his chest anymore. He dropped the gun and sunk low to the roots, watching a shadow slowly approach him.
"You had a beautiful wife, Roy." The voice proudly said to the wounded man.
He grunted again, and curled his knees to his chest. The pain pounded by each pump of his heart. He tightly closed his eyes, and swore he saw stars as he continued to grasp his bleeding arm.
"Yes. Very nice."
Roy opened his eyes, and saw Gene Rogalin stand before him. His short brown hair was perfectly jelled as if a woman's hand ran through it. A low chuckle escaped him as he watched the man suffer. His rifle was at his side, and a satisfied but sick smile emerged between his rough cheeks.
He kneeled down and gazed at his old friend. "It's been years, Roy. I thought this would be difficult but then, the old forget."
Warm blood flowed between his fingers as he watched Gene make a mockery of him. Anger swelled inside, waiting to burst. "What do you want from me?" He shouted with what strength he had left.
Gene's smile grew to a grin, his white teeth gleaming in the moon light. "I want you dead, Roy. I'm in charge now, and I don't want anyone to get in the way."
"I'm done! I'm not working for anyone anymore. Christ you know that!"
He nodded, listening to his stressed words, "I know, but you can't be so sure about your kid."
Roy's heart stopped. Confusion hit him, questioning whether he died or his nerves quit working from his statement, "What kid? She isn't pregnant."
"Well...not anymore."
His grey eyes widened, and more pain numbed his body. That's why he's here? Gene had two missions, not one? The bastard came to kill him and his child? He winced as he tried to pull himself up from the cold ground. He was a fool,
asics nimbus, and he couldn't do anything about it. The mental and physical pain was too much to handle.
His rifle slowly rose to Roy's forehead. He stopped trying, and fell back to the ground, looking into his once old friend's eyes. Swallowing, he heard him say, "Sorry. It's a Darwin thing."
As he slowly pulled the trigger, Roy suddenly sunk further to the ground, and kicked the side of Gene's knee; he forced himself to ignore the numbing pain and chose to fight instead. A pop was heard, and a yell followed. Roy kicked again, and a loud shot from the rifle missed the target. The half-inch bullet dug into tree's trunk behind him.
The killer grabbed his knee as he fell on the ground, watching Roy reach for the weapon. Gene quickly reacted with a free hand to get it back, but he wasn't fast enough. He watched it get snatched by his enemy,
belstaff stiefel, and heard him grunt as he tossed the heavy weapon into the darkness.
Stars appeared in the sky, and light was scarce. Roy let go of his bloody arm, and searched for his gun in the pile of dead leaves around him. More pain pounded in his arm, and he suppressed a scream when he tried to feel for his weapon. He moved his leg, and felt something hard hit his knee. His mind thanked God as he reached for it, but was suddenly struck on the head. He felt warm waves rush over his body, and his mind was in a complete daze. Gene managed to grin as he dropped a large piece of wood, and hoped he could find the gun first.
He swore he saw her before his presence. Her long, black hair rested on her shoulders, and a gently smile danced in his eyes. Roy opened them, but he still saw his wife hold their son from the short distance. She giggled as she raised him under his arms, and rub noses with the infant. It was a beautiful, warm sight, but a dark and tragic one. He would never see his wife alive again, and the child he could never have.
He shook his head, and grabbed the strap of the gun. Gene looked at him, and saw the madness and anger on his face. A new plan entered his mind. He pushed himself up, and limped to find protection before it was over.
He fired the gun until all the rounds were gone. Roy's ears rang from the loud noise as he watched him quickly grow still. The man stared for what seemed as hours until tears came. Why did it have to come to this?
A feeling of conclusion warmed his body against the stinging wind. He pulled himself from the ground, and slowly walked away from the lifeless, cold shadow that had entered his life to end his. He wiped his nose with a bloody hand, and forgot everything: his gun, his enemies, and his past while he moved into the future, seeking for comfort that his wife now could never give.
