Chapter 898: Abducted
Old Finn was aching all over, despite this however, his first concern wasn’t the dull ache of his body but the resources he just got.
He sighed in relief when he saw that he didn’t drop the bread and the water wasn’t wasted. It was only then that he looked around and wondered what’s going on.
That crash sounded nasty. The impact he felt was so strong that he starts guessing that their ship must’ve hit something really hard.
Unfortunately, he couldn’t really get out of here even if he wants to. The cargo doors won’t open unless the pilot or the captain of the ship decides to open them. Old Finn didn’t even dare to think about forcing it to open since he knew that’s impossible for him to do.
He could only stay put and wait for whatever’s going to happen next.
“Arrgh!!”
Old Finn shivered in his spot upon hearing that.
The thickness of the ship reduced the sound’s volume but the fact that he still heard it means that someone’s in trouble.
Old Finn started getting nervous…
‘Did we encounter some Space Pirates?’ He thought to himself grimly.
Space Pirates were the bane of collectors like himself. They go around the Outer World plundering ships they encounter. If their crew truly met a Space Pirate out here and if that scream happened to be someone from their side, this means that they’re in trouble.
If the crew outside got wiped out, there’s no way that Old Finn’s going to survive this. If there were really Space Pirates out there, they will search this ship thoroughly and they will see him. There’s no way they’ll let him live even if he begs for his life.
Due to his nervousness, Old Finn’s mind immediately garnered negative thoughts.
He tried comforting himself by thinking that the crew is strong and they should be able to defend themselves from this. The Captain will take them away from here safely and they’ll return home.
But then again, it really didn’t help. Things just got even worse when Old Finn hear multiple screams of agony outside.
Old Finn was truly fearing for his little life right now. But despite this, he remained still.
What’s the use of panicking so much? Even an infant Space Beast can and will kill him on sight. Old Finn knows that he’s pathetically weak. He can be pushed around and killed easily. He has long accepted this. He’s just trying to live for a little bit longer if possible but it seems that today will be his last.
Well? What better way to live his last moments other than being full right?
At this point, Old Finn was already consumed with so much fear that he already accepted his fate.
Not hesitating any longer, he took a large swig of water and bit off a large chunk of his bread.
If he’s going to the die this day, he might as well die with a full stomach.
As he ate, Old Finn could still hear the panicked and distorted cries outside. The more he listened, the more he discovered that those voices were familiar to him.
Those voices belonged to those people who were mocking him earlier. They now sound like pigs being slaughtered. Old Finn didn’t know if this is Karma or whatever but he didn’t feel bad at the thought of them being dead.
‘Yeah. So what if you guys are more muscular than me? I still lived longer than all of you, hmph!’ Old Finn scoffed in amusement as he continued chewing on his bread.
“…let…please! We…to return…spare…please!!”
Old Finn froze upon hearing this cries. He suddenly lowered his head and felt a chill on his soul.
He couldn’t hear the complete message but there’s no mistaking this, the one who said this was the Captain.
Yeah, the crew’s totally fucked. Old Finn’s truly going to die today. How unlucky.
Old Finn lamented in his heart. He can still hear the captain’s pleading and his agonized cries. He was begging for his life. He had shed all sorts of dignity, compassion and shame just for a small chance of survival but it seems that the Pirates were having fun torturing him.
He could even hear him pointing them onto his direction. The Captain didn’t mention him, just that the treasures they collected were located here.
Still, that’s basically the same as selling him out. Oh well, Old Finn was way past the point of expecting that he’ll survive this anyway, there’s no need to form a grudge when he’s literally about to die.
Old Finn managed to finish eating his bread and drinking every single drop of water he has. Afterwards, he just comically threw them on the floor and waited for his sentence.
He felt somewhat at peace knowing that not long from now, all this suffering will be over.
Old Finn then heard the cargo doors creaking. He didn’t even need to look. He knows that they will pry these doors open by hook or by crook.
Bang!
“Oh, look! Someone’s still alive…I think.”
“Really? Let me see? Oh…”
Old Finn turned his head to look at them. And although he didn’t show it in his face, deep down he was shocked.
He had never seen this breed of Space Pirates before! They look…menacing, and really strong. No wonder the crew were wiped out!
These dudes were big and beefy. They have a pair of horns, pitch black skin with crimson pupils and lips. There’s gaping void in their chest and they’re clad in a thick and heavy-looking armor. Their weapons were stashed behind them, meaning that they pried the cargo doors open by hand.
And if they can do that…dismantling Finn will only require them minimum effort.
“He’s alive…but dead inside I think. How weird.” One of them commented, sounding really confused and puzzled as if he never encountered this kind of situation before.
“Is he even breathing? He’s just looking at us! It’s kind of freaky to be honest.”
‘Bullshit! Don’t tell me you’re scared of me? How? Literally? You two have well functioning eyes! What part of me looks freaky to you!? You’re the freaky one’s!’ Old Finn raged inwardly.
Look, he already accepted death. Can’t they just kill him? There’s no need to insult him before doing so isn’t there?
Old Finn just watched as the two of them walked towards him. One paused to look around while the other swiped his head and instantly, all bindings that prevented Old Finn from moving were cut.
Then, Old Finn was picked up by the neck. His eyes bulged a bit not because of the tightness of the hold but by the ease of how it was done. This guy lifted him like he was weightless.
He might be skin and bones but he at least still has some mass with him. He shouldn’t be this light…
“…oy, this one’s really weird.” The dude lifting his turned to his companion.
His words caused Old Finn’s lips to twitch in annoyance. Whatever.
“Yeah, you already said that before. Anything new?”
“No, no. That’s not what I mean this time.”
“What do you mean then?”
“He can be turned I think…”
“Eh?”
Now, the other one was interested.
Instantly, Old Finn found himself being inspected from head to toe with two pairs of judgmental eyes. It’s very uncomfortable to be honest but what can he do? Fight them to death?
Yeah, right!
“Weird…really weird!”
“Right!”
‘Yes, yes I’m weird. Now can you two kill me please? I’m starting to get bored.’
“It doesn’t make sense! He’s paper-thin!”
‘Ouch.’
“…yep, all skin and bones. Weightless, even.”
‘Really, ouch.’
“But he has potential! How is this even possible?”
‘Thanks, I guess? So are you gonna kill me now?’
“What should we do? Should try and turn him?”
‘Any second now, I guess.’
“…I don’t think we should do it. How about we bring him to Boss?”
‘Oh? I get to meet your Boss? You flatter me, gentlemen.’
“Yeah, I guess he can make the decision. Come on.”
Just like that, Old Finn was dragged like a ragdoll by these two.
They stepped out of the ship and went towards another ship. It was only then that Old Finn got see what happened to the crew.
Long story short, they’re all dead. He literally saw the head of the captain floating somewhere, not even an intact corpse was left in sight.
Old Finn, once again, lamented in his heart. He didn’t even had the heart to mourn for them since he knew that he’ll be joining them soon.
He only wishes that, whatever is out there on the other side, there’s no more suffering for anyone.
“Boss! Look at this weird thing!”
Old Finn’s lips twitched in annoyance. He sighed and looked at where he’s at, concluding that his at the enemy’s ship. He then saw that there is an even bigger man standing in front of them.
‘Ah! So I get to die under the hands of the Big Boss. Oh, I’m flattered.’
“Hmm? Such a weird specimen.” The Boss hummed upon laying eyes on him. “You two, put him in Grooming Pod. Let’s see what kind of strangeness this thing has.”
“Right away, Boss!”
‘Oh, so this is it? Goodbye world, I guess?’
