Caesar's Moon

Chapter 48: Chapter 47: Unexpected

In the evening, while Caesar was walking down on the streets, she had a quick memory of what transpired earlier.

Inside the hospital waiting room, Caesar and the other coworkers sat in silence until a fair skinned doctor approached them while carrying a clipboard in his hand.

Caesar turned her sight towards him and spoke.

"So... What’s the news?"

The doctor stayed silent as he carried a grave expression before bringing his head down.

"I’m sorry. The injury is so severe that we might have to remove a testicle from Aldis Pulpsack in order for him to survive."

Hearing the news, several of the workers stiffened as they were filled with shock and horror.

"Holy..." A masculine voice said.

"It’s that bad?" Caesar asked.

"Yes, it is." The doctor replied as he raised his head, "Right now, he is in a coma, so even if we do that, we don’t know when or if he’ll regain consciousness.

It could be weeks, months... Or even years."

"All we can do is wait." The doctor continued as Caesar’s eyes widened in horror.

"My god..." A fair skinned woman among the workers said as she covered her mouth in horror.

The doctor took a deep breath and continued speaking.

"Is there any close relative we can contact? Like a friend or family?"

"Mr Pulpsack has a fiancee." A fair skinned male with blue hair said, "I can reach out to her and let her in on the situation."

"Yes, please do." The doctor replied.

The blue haired male nodded his head in response and the doctor nodded back before he left.

The group remained frozen in silence until Skhini awkwardly shifted and let out a nervous laugh.

"Uh... What a terrible situation..." Skhini said as he rubbed the back of his head.

Caesar and the others glared at him and Skhini being unable to look them in the eyes, turned his face away.

"I... Uh... I’m sorry?" Skhini said with a nervous grin.

"This little..." A masculine voice said.

"Skhini, ’what’ were you thinking?" Caesar asked as she narrowed her eyes, "Throwing flyers into someone’s car window? Are you insane?!"

"Nah, he is not insane. I got a neighbor who sneaks out of his home just to box a kangaroo; that guy is insane.

Skhini is just stupid." Another masculine voice sounded.

"It doesn’t change the fact that it’s because of him Aldis is in this situation." A feminine voice replied as Skhini’s nervous smile faltered.

"Yeah, I’ve lost track of how many times you’ve pulled a dumbass move and we had to save your skinny behind." The short fair skinned man said.

"Look, I’m sorry, okay...?" Skhini said, "I was desperate. No one was taking flyers and time was running out."

"So you had to throw a whole ass flyer into someone’s car while he was driving?" Caesar asked, "You didn’t ’think’ of the consequences. You didn’t think what if it had caused an accident. You didn’t think of the person’s reaction. You just threw it and thought things would turn out right?"

"You’re assuming he even thinks at all." The leopard beastfolk female said to Caesar.

"Do you know what kind of boot that big bastard used to kick him?" The leopard beastfolk female asked Skhini , "That was a Myke 190. One of the toughest boots ever known in Neo-earth and that shit is laced with steel. ’Steel’!

I’m surprised Mr Pulpsack is not even dead."

"We got an interview with Dazzle magazine on Friday, and Mr Pulpsack got one on Saturday. How are we going to explain this to Mary Dazzle and the others?" The dark skinned man with dual colored dreadlocks asked, "Oh, we are sorry. Mr Pulpsack won’t be able to make it because our stupid coworker here got him into an incident that damaged his balls, so now he is in a coma?"

"I also feel sorry for the fiancee." The short man said, "How is she going to react when she learns what happened to her man?"

"You know what I think?!" A fat brown skinned man being red with anger asked as he stood on his feet, "I think we should kick Skhini in the balls till he suffers the same fate as Aldis!"

Many of the crew being caught off guard, turned towards the fat man in shock.

"Ayo!"

"Woah..."

"Pause."

"Yeah. ’Pause’."

"Chill, man."

"No. No!" The fat man said, "He needs to learn! You know what they say: An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth... A pair of testicles for a pair testicles..."

"I’m kicking him, right now!" The fat man continued as he ran towards Skhini.

In that moment, several members of the group ran towards the fat man and held him by the arms to restrain while Caesar quickly and protectively pushed Shkini behind her as the others were trying to talk the fat man down.

"Ayo, man, chill!"

"Yeah. Calm down!"

"Take it easy, bro!"

"Let go of me! Let go of me!" The fat man said.

"Everyone... Just breathe!" Caesar said as she extended an arm forward while Skhini was cowering behind her.

After remembering that incident in the hospital, Caesar exhaled.

"Damn." Caesar said in her mind.

Elsewhere at the EBW stadium, AJ Zero who was wearing a dark blue hoodie, black trousers and had a bag placed round his right shoulder, was staring at the screen of his phone, reading the comments of the upcoming unsanctioned match between him and Magoi.

"Bro is cooked."

"Magoi is going to kill him."

"This is basically a squash match."

"Nah, the company must have had something on AJ for them to book him against her."

The hand AJ was using to hold the phone shook and he exhaled before putting the phone in his pocket and he resumed walking forward.

Meanwhile as Caesar had bought food in a small box from a dark skinned human male who was selling under a large umbrella, the man bowed his head and smiled.

"Many thanks, my friend."

Caesar nodded her head in response and turned her back to walk away.

Suddenly, her ears flinched and she quickly turned to the opposite direction.

Caesar caught sight of man in a mask running from the a group of police men which involved a fair skinned human male, a fair skinned female beastfolk and a dark skinned human male.

"Police! Don’t move!" The dark skinned man said.

The man raced towards Caesar’s direction and right before she could even react, he swiftly moved behind, wrapped his right arm round her neck, pulled out a gun and hastily placed it on her temple.

"Woah!" Caesar said.

"Shut up!" The man replied.

The police men halted and slowly moved their hands towards their straps.

"Let her go."

"Put the gun down."

"No!" The man replied.

"We’re warning you." The female beastfolk said.

"How about you put yours down?!" The man asked, "Do you know how much rent is?! Shit ain’t cheap anymore!"

"Put. The gun. Down!" The fair skinned police man said.

"And I told you to put yours down!" The man said as he was slowly walking back.

Caesar on the other hand, stayed calm rather than panicking despite the gun being at her temple.

The crowd watching this, were staring with unease.

"I need that money! I need that money to pay up otherwise my landlord is gonna throw me out!" The man said, "Rent is fucking due!"

"Last chance: Put it down!" The fair skinned police man ordered.

"If you try any nonsense, I’ll fucking shoot her!" The man responded.

For some reason, the police men froze.

The man continued speaking while slowly walking backwards with Caesar.

"You fucking pigs! You stupid ass shits!" The man said, "I’m not going to any stupid cell, you hear me?! So put your guns down or she gets a bullet to the brain!"

The man suddenly froze as he felt an overwhelming presence that made him slightly shudder.

However, right before he could even turn around, a hand grabbed the side of his face and with one swift movement, the opposite side of the man’s head was slammed so hard against a wall that it left a crack on it while rendering the man unconscious with blank eyes.

The police men stiffened and murmurings from the crowd began to fill the air.

Caesar turned back and her eyes widened.

"Well, well, well. What do we have here?" A masculine voice asked as the masked man slightly twitched against the wall.

"You’re... Damien Bane..." Caesar said as Damien Bane stood in front of her.

Damien had a black sunglasses worn on his face and on the upper part of his body was a black jacket with gold accents.

Underneath the jacket was a white inner top.

Round his neck were gold chains and on his wrist was a rolex watch.

On the lower half of his body, he wore blue jeans and black shoes.

"Well, hello there." Damien said, "Looks like we finally meet, Caesar Moon. Or should I say...."

"Usurper?" Damien Bane continued with a smile as he tilted his head.

Caesar stayed silent at Damien and narrowed her eyes.
