Chapter 3:

Chapter 3-'' I will have my revenge"

Cowboys


After hearing those words, Yoshio remained calm,took a deep breath in and replied-
''PLEASE DON'T HURT ME,I'M JUST A LOST MAN SEARCHING FOR MY MOMMY''
[He folded under zero pressure]

''Woah Woah, relax man,I ain't gonna hurt you''
''Wait...You not?''
''My man,I am literally chained up,not to mention I am behind bars right now''
''T-then what was that 'I've been waiting for you' crap?''
''Oh..I just do that to scare whoever enters"
''Speaking of entering,why are you down here?''
''I came looking for you...uhh...''
''Tomoki"
''The names Tomoki crybaby stranger"
''Okay to be fair,you look like you came out of a haunted land'''
''Anyway,my name is Yoshio,I am here to break you out"
''But I don't even know you...''
''It doesn't matter,a sugar mommy told me I might find you here''
''Word on the street is that you a pretty nice guy"

''That's flattering Yoshio but clearly you must need something if you came to break me out''
''Actually I do,I'm looking for this woman,she's my mum'''

* Yoshio takes out the picture from his pocket and holds it against the cell *

''Sorry to disappoint you Yoshio but I have never seen that woman in my entire life"
''...Then can you help me find her''
''Please..I've spent the last 11 years of my life searching for her but I had no luck''
''I know you are not a bad guy..I can tell by the way you breathe''
''What the fuck is wrong with you?''

Tomoki remained silent,puzzling whether he should trust Yoshio. He didn't know whether he can trust him until he looked into Yoshio's eyes.It was filled with optimism and sincerity.In that moment Tomoki saw something inside of Yoshio,something that he also saw inside of himself.
'Determination'

''Alright I'll help you but you need to help me with something first''
''What is it?''
''We are going to kill mayor Williams''
"I know this is your personal goal and fetish.. But may I ask why?''
''It all started 25 years ago''
"Wait another backstory??? We just had one literally one chapter ago''

[Wait a second?? Yoshio can break the fourth wall?]

''No not really,Yoshio has main character syndrome,so basically anything like a backstory or a major fight,he will act like he is a protagonist in some manga or anime''

[Wouldn't people around him find it weird that he acts like that]

''They do, in fact many people tried to take him to the doctors but he just jumped out the window and ran away''

[Oh...uhh...okay... Now uhh * clears throat * on to Tomoki's depressing backstory]

[25 years ago,In The Town Of Red Sun Valley]

It was 5:45 am on the morning of July 27th.The heavy rain was pouring,the streets were empty and town was quiet until...A pregnant mother running through the streets in the rain,trying to escape from a man who already took her husband's life.(The husband tried to stop him when he broke into their house but was shot in the process resulting in death,the wife rushed out the back door,on to the muddy streets and ran for her life).Due to the rain,nobody in the town could hear her scream.She knew she couldn't run for long so she took refuge in a Religious Building.With all of her strength,she pushed a table in front of the door so the killer could not enter the building and she hid on the stage behind a table.She remained quiet,dare not make a sound.Unfortunately the killer knew she was in the building so he tried breaking down the door.She tried to make a run for it until her water broke.

Her death seemed guaranteed so in her final moment,she turned to the Lord and prayed for the safety of her child in return,he could have her life.Suddenly the banging and breaking down of the door stopped.A glowing white butterfly started flying through the building and rested on the mother's belly.6 am,the rain stopped,the sun came out and all that was left in the building was a crying baby boy.

The mother was gone.

The morning sun shined through the window on the new born baby.Hearing a baby cry inside,a couple who always entered the religious building every morning found the baby on the podium steps.The couple searched around the whole building hoping to find the parents but sadly could not.The couple realized that the Lord has answered their prayers.(They have been trying for a baby but unfortunately they could not have so everyday they always went to prayer asking for a child).The couple was extremely happy and decided to raise the baby as their own.They named him Tomoki. The baby grew up very healthy among the couple,having manners,being their joy and pride in the family.Although the couple was extremely poor,there was not one day that the house was short of food.Everyday was filled with happiness.Unfortunately happiness is temporary.

At the age of 10,Tomoki's parents have been sentenced to execution if they fail to pay their taxes.The family was taken to the town hall where mayor Williams decided they should be hanged for their failure to pay. Tomoki(filled with determination) was going to do whatever it took to free his parents from debt.Mayor Williams decided to give Tomoki 5 years to free his parents from debt as he believed Tomoki couldn't do it.He promised Tomoki that if he could pay the debt,he will let his parents go. Tomoki went to hug his parents one last time before uttering the words.

''I will free you and that is a promise''

He spent the next 5 years working five different jobs.The pay was not well especially since Tomoki had to eat bread for most the years.He visited his parents in jail daily.After a long 5 years,he finally paid it.Mayor Williams congratulated Tomoki and told him to come by the town hall tomorrow for a reward for his hard work. Tomoki went to sleep very excited because finally after so long he will  be able to hug his parents.The next day has arrived,it was cloudy,it was slightly raining,Tomoki dressed up in his best suit that was kindly gifted to him by one of his employer.He made his way to town hall with the biggest smile on his face until..

He saw the heads of both of his parents on the town hall steps.

Tomoki collapsed,he fainted on the ground and was unconscious.Mayor Williams saw Tomoki on the floor,called the sheriff and took him to a cave far away from town called 'Black Void'.He put Tomoki's body in the cave,sealed it up with a boulder and returned back to the town telling everyone that Tomoki didn't want to pay the debt so he left town.
''He played on your emotions,he was never going to free his parents,he just wanted the money so he could leave and never return''
''He lied to you all,he deceived all of you''
''I even promised him I will free his parents but he refused''
People of the town felt betrayal from Tomoki but for some reason they believed he would never do that.

[Tomoki was trapped in a cave,on the verge of suicide]
[Wait..why is the cave called Black Void and wouldn't the town people have seen the heads of his parents in front of the town hall?]

''The reason why it is called the Black Void is because inside the cave,you can't see shit,it is so dark that even if you light a fire,it won"t do anything''
''Can't I just leave just leave some plot holes in this story :( "
''The reason why nobody saw the head of the parents was because Tomoki was called to the town hall at 5:45 am while everybody was asleep''

[That concludes the end of Tomoki's backstory]

''Wait wait wait..How did you escape the cave?''
''I'm not sure,my mind just goes blank every time I try to remember''
''You know what Tomoki..After hearing your backstory,I promise you"

''By the time we leave this town,the mayors head will be the one in front of the town hall"
