Chapter 11 - The Last Shield Mercs

Satsuma and Honda faced each other, both waiting to see what the other would do, gauging their opponent. Drips of sweat can be seen racing down Honda's face, the idea of fighting a losing battle is daunting, but the excitement of a fierce fight keeps him on his feet. Satsuma still wondering if fighting Honda is the right idea, glimpse the sight of the girl on the ground beaten to a pulp, with her blood on Hondas body. This gave him the answer to his question.

As if Satsuma telegraphed his intent, Honda instinctively assumed a defensive stance, this prevented him from receiving a deadly blow to the chest as Satsuma appeared in-front of him in a blink of an eye. Honda flew across the ring skidding across floor, Satsuma again appeared right behind him mid flight and kicked him into the sky. 'What the hell! I knew he'd be strong, but this is just too much' Honda thought to himself while sky rocketing towards the ceiling.

Honda's body finally stopped ascending as gravity finally took it's course, and directed him towards the ground. His still body dropping like a single rain drop. 'Maybe I'm going too hard, but I'll end it now' thought Satsuma. He awaited him to reach his range so he could administer the final blow. Head first Honda's body got closer to Satsuma, balling his fist Satsuma range back his right arm and prepared.

Honda was now in range and a furious blow shot towards his back, but suddenly in mid air Honda spun and used the momentum to get inside Satsuma's guard. 'What the hell? Did I just allow this kid to trick me? And not only that this isn't just a dodge it's a…' "Barrel Counter!" Honda shouted. This opening allowed Honda to pummel Satsuma on his head with a downward strike coming off the spin.

"Heh, At least I got one hit in."

Honda landed on his feet and created distance.

Satsuma, body frozen in place stood there dumbfounded, although he wasn't stunned from the blow, but shocked that he allowed it to happen. His head slowly turned towards Honda's face, crooked and demented covered with a shadow of death. "Kid…you're dead." Honda couldn't help but shake a little. "That's big talk coming from a small fr.."

Honda's banter was stopped by a blow to the stomach, that blow converted the rest of Honda's words into spit and gasps for air. 'Why is he so fast?..I'm..losing….conscio..' Honda falls to the floor.

In the background the members of The Last Shield Mercs and Dolphina Soldiers were busy apprehending the remaining suspects.

"Ragner you better protect me at all costs, dont let none of these swines lay a finger on me!"

"Yes Madam" Ragner stands in-front of Madam Elena and prepares himself for battle. "Sensate Skill Iron wall" Ragner shouts while cracking his thumb. A layer of shine can be seen on his brawny body like light dancing on his skin. Besides the commotion of patrons running and screaming you can also hear Baron Farfield commanding a huge man that resembles a human shape pillar to guide him to safety.

"You big oaf! I am a Baron, probably the most important person you will ever meet in you're life, it would be in your best interest to get me out of here safely Bruno!"

"Yes master" Bruno responded, his voice was oddly soft with a whisper tone for a man his size, almost as if he was voided of life. He is over eleven feet tall, bulging muscles, with long black hair that covers his face to where only the ominous glow of his eyes can be seen. Wearing a red tank top and green pants, he had no weapons besides his boulder size fist.

"I paid a lot of money for you, now lets put it to use" said Farfield. Bruno began parting the way pushing soldiers and attendants alike, some even fell off the balcony.

"That's a freaking huge pile of meat! I think you should handle that one Vorage." Said a woman with long brown hair, fair skin and a seductive face that matched her revealing tight leather uniform. Her breast area was slightly covered by a Black scarf with an insignia of a shield, and in her hands were daggers.

"Well my lady I do believe the saying is Women first, besides I am the one who allowed everyone to infiltrate this place, so I'll be taking a break now Cignet." A man in all black with his head covered by a hood and face by a black scarf with a shield insignia appeared from the floor. His blue eyes were all that could be seen. He wore light weight black armor and pants, and wielded a single black dagger.

These two are members of the The last Shield Mercs hired by the Military to help with the raid.

"There's only three of us and Satsuma is playing around down there. Is it so hard to get some assistance here? I pretended to be that fat pig Baron Farfield for two days to get this intel. Do you know how it feels to transform into a greasy pig?!" Cignet complained out loud while effortlessly knocking out hired security for the illegal fighting ring.

"Threat not my lady, Ill ensure your safety, as long as you keep that face of yours pretty. Whenever you're ready I'll teleport you over to that troll so you could let off more steam." Vorage said this and aimed his hands towards Cignet's feet.

"Ready when you are"

"Pitfall- Ant Tunnel" Where Vorage hand aimed a black hole appeared, he then drag it to where Bruno was. Cignet jumped in and instantly appeared behind Bruno "This is the best way to travel" She said while in the air, brandishing her two blades she dashed towards Bruno and stuck them in his back. A heavy scream as if hell itself was opening rang throughout, causing everyone to cover their ears.

"Bruno you piece of shit get her off you and protect me, and if I get ear damage I'm feeding you to the Leggadors."

Bruno shuffled his body and flung Cignet off, he looked at her with all intent to kill. This didn't phase her as she charged forward again, but her advance was halted by Bruno's long hefty arms that flung out like a whip. 'How can he swing those massive arms around like that as if they were rope? Better not underestimate him' Cignet thought this while avoiding Bruno's strikes. Bruno now enraged charged towards her, but before he could make it to her, a black hole appeared under his left leg, causing him to stumble.

Cignet did not let this opportunity pass "Turbine Cutter" her blades began to oscillate at a tremendous speed. The air around her daggers turned into a violent ripping vortex, and this sliced Bruno's head off clean as she dashed and attacked with her two blades, not even blood could be seen on her or her weapons.

"Bruno you idiot, I didn't pay you to die! I have to get out of here" Farfield scurried away, but was captured by soldiers.

"I could've handled the big guy myself Vorage."

"Im sure you could, but what kind of gentleman would I be if I allowed a filthy man like that to lay a finger on you? Besides Madam Elena is making her escape, she is a direct link to the Kia family. If we can directly expose them we could possibly take down one of the Seven sin families. That alone would award our Band the number one spot in the upcoming ranking ceremony."

"What are we waiting for then lets stop her!"

Cignet and Vorage made their move on Madam Elena. Many of the audience were now in handcuffs, the battles had subsided and Ragner was easily paving a way to the escape route for Elena.

'I can't be caught here, especially by these mercs, not while they have "that" man on their side, the Fiat family secrets must never be revealed or else..' Elena shudders at the thought of the consequences, she looks back for a moment and see's the aftermath of their event.

She glimpses Baron Farfield being dragged away. 'The greedy Genesis family is in trouble now, but Farfield will probably be silenced before he can speak a word.' As Elena was thinking to her self she saw a glimmer of light in the distance. A Psy blast flew passed her and crashed right where Ragner was about to step. Ragner reacted by covering Elena and scoping the area.

A black hole opened up beneath ragner's feet followed by a hand grabbing his ankles.

"Now Cignet." A voice echoed from the black hole. Right on que Cignet fell from the sky spiraling towards Ragner daggers in hand. He looked up and braced for impact. The blades connected with Ragners arms, but nothing but sparks was seen, no blood.

"Your puny blades would never harm me little woman, I'm Ragner the Fortress. Let me show you why fighting is a man's sport." Ragner reached into the black hole and yanked Borage out throwing him towards Cignet. She saw the incoming body and slowly step to the side allowing him to crash into the wall.

"Why didn't you catch me my lady?" Vorage asked frantically.

"Oh I don't know, just didn't feel like it. Now get it up we got work to do."

Vorage got back on his feet and dusted himself off. "I guess it cant be helped" Vorage reached behind him towards the wall where a black hole was waiting, his hand diving into the pit was connected to the wall where Elena was standing. He grabbed her and yanked her to him through the pit.

"I got you…my my up close your beauty far exceeds that wicked heart of yours. I promise to bring you roses while you're in jail."

"Let go of me you bastard." Elena shouted as she struggled in the Vorage's arms.

"Good job Vorage, now to deal with this one."

"Madam Elena!" Ragner shouted. With a look of desperation he fired off several Psy blasts towards Cignet and Vorage.

"What the fuck are you doing are you trying to hit me?" Elena screamed, but one of the blasts impacted close knocking Vorage and her off balance. The Gold locket and dog tags flew out her shirt and towards the stage.

A foot stomps on Honda's head.

"You still alive kid?"
