Rakaia glared at the gang that stood in front of him, his eyes remaining on Saitou as he and his brothers gritted their teeth at him.
"Last warning runt, move out of the way or you're seriously going to get hurt." He lightly growled.
"Thank you for worrying about me, but I think I can take care of myself," Rakaia responded as he readied himself for the possibility of being attacked.
"Oh?" Visha faked her astonishment. "I think I'm starting to like him already." She exclaimed as she took a step forward, standing beside Saitou and his brothers. "Now I really want to see what he can do, ok boys; go tell him we said "Hello" Visha ordered as a few gang members charged towards Rakaia, who kept his fist balled and remained calm as they drew closer to him.[G4]
"Here they come." Rakaia thought to himself as he mentally thought back to Luna's words. "Alright, distance," He told himself as one of the gang members got close enough for Rakaia to strike. "Notice the distance between us." Rakaia's mind continued as his opponent tried to kick his head off with a wild roundhouse kick, but Rakaia ducked it with ease. "And strike!" Rakaia buried his fist into his stomach, stopping the thug in his tracks as he dropped to his knees clenching his stomach.
"What the hell!" Kaitou exclaimed. "How did he...."
The second thug could only grit his teeth as a slight huff escaped his nostrils. "Why you little...You little brat!" He screamed.
Rakaia glanced down at his fallen opponent before raising his head up to see not only Saitou and his brothers gritting their teeth, but Visha smiling ecstatically. The next thug charged forward and tried to hammer Rakaia's face, but Rakaia moved his body and head with little effort, avoiding his opponent's strike like it was nothing. "Is this it?" Rakaia wondered as he retaliated with a few punches of his own before kicking his opposition away into the ground.
"Damn him..." Saitou grunted as he stood beside Visha watching the spectacle unfold in front of them.
"..He's not half bad." Visha placed a finger to her lips as her yellow eyes remained on Saitou's future opponent. "Let's see how he does against this..." She signaled as she snapped her fingers and two more fighters charged in with no words and rushed Rakaia.
Rakaia quickly caught on and readied himself as the two fighters lunged forward and began to attack ferociously. They both unleashed a wrath of fists as they tried their best to bash Rakaia in the face, but Rakaia continued to dance around them, dodging every attack that came his way.
"How come they're moving so slow?" Rakaia questioned in his head as he dodged another blow, taking a few steps back catching one of the thug's fists in his hand, and returning with a punch of his own, burying it in his face, knocking him down, and allowing the last one to charge in again, but Rakaia wasn't about to wait around for an opening. He went and ducked underneath another wild swing and caught his opponent with a few rights and left before grabbing his arm and slinging him over his shoulder, slamming him onto his back, and knocking him out as well.
"Are you serious!" Maitou shouted.
"There's no way he was that good before," Kaitou growled as he clenched his fist.
Saitou joined his brothers in his sheer frustration at watching Rakaia overcome the obstacle that Visha sent his way with ease.
"Looks like you're going to have your hands full Saitou." Visha smiled at him causing him to look in her direction. She gave him a wink. "If you aren't careful, he might beat you." She told him as she turned her head back towards Rakaia, who looked down at the thugs that he took out on his own.
"I guess the constant fights with Saitou and sparring with Luna are really starting to pay off." He spoke to himself. "Alright, I think I can do this." Rakaia, feeling pumped as he began to celebrate prematurely, unbeknownst to him, Visha's phone began to ring in her pocket.
"And it looks like our free time is up." She didn't even bother to answer her phone. She quickly pushed herself forward, faster than anyone could see; catching Rakaia completely off guard as she pressed up against him, his eyes widening in shock.
"What...What the...I didn't even see her move." Rakaia thought to himself as Visha's face was a mere few inches away from his.
Behind her, Saitou, his brothers, and the rest of the gang could only carry the same expression.
"Amazing..." Kaitou uttered.
"Unbelievable." Maitou followed suit.
"How could she be...So fast?" Saitou stuttered as Visha continued to smile at Rakaia's face, slowly sliding her tongue out of her mouth, licking her lips as she looked into his eyes.
"Sorry, cutie; but we're all out of time." She mouthed as she gently rubbed her hand up and down his chest, gradually; performing a light seductive massage.
"Huh? What?" Rakaia's eyes suddenly enlarged as he felt her knee collide with his stomach. To him, it would have appeared that everything had stopped and it suddenly became hard for him to breathe as she caved in his midsection, dropping him to his knees before he slumped down face first at her feet as he tried to regain control of his breathing.
"I hope I didn't hit you too hard," Visha smirked at him as she knelt down towards him, placing her mouth next to his ear. "But next time," She began. "Don't let your guard down." She whispered to him as she stood back up. "I'm a lot more dangerous than I look." She winked as she looked back at her associates. "Come on let's go, we have a job to do. "She stated as she walked off leaving Rakaia coughing up spit, not even bothering to look behind her as everyone else followed suit.
Kaitou and Maitou did the exact same thing leaving Saitou to be the last one to leave. He heard the grunts and groans coming from Rakaia's lips as he stood there by his side but facing the direction that Visha and the snakes walked off. "Let me tell you, something runt..." Saitou began, while Rakaia was still trying to catch his breath. "You just got off easy with Visha, so count yourself lucky on that." He mouthed as he knelt down and grabbed Rakaia by the back of his head and lifted his head up so he could face him. "But when our match comes up, you're going to experience a hell, and I do mean, a hell of a lot worse." He finished as he released his grip on Rakaia's head, letting it fall as he walked off as well, leaving Rakaia groaning in pain.
As Saitou disappeared out of sight with the rest of the gang, Rakaia slowly brought himself up to his hands and knees. He still had trouble regaining control of his breathing, but he managed to slowly rise to his feet as he turned his head towards the direction that Saitou disappeared in, grunting in pain with every breath, but an intense glare on his face. "We'll see about that Saitou…." He uttered under his breath.
"Meanwhile, Luna and Cana finally accomplished their mission, getting a few groceries for Luna as they stopped at her apartment with both of them dropping the products they bought on Luna's kitchen table. "Oh man, it's finally over." Cana slumped in one of Luna's chairs, catching a good look around her place.
"Yea, I didn't think it would take so long, but thanks to you, I finally got something to eat for the week," Luna stated sitting down in front of Cana, who turned her head back towards her, giving her a questionable look. "Thanks for your help Cana," Luna stated, trying to ignore the look that Cana was giving her.
"No problem Luna. " Cana began as she looked around Luna's place again. "But…Um, Luna." Cana spoke her name as her eyes fell back on her once again. "This…Um, the apartment is kind of small…Don't you think?" She turned her head again to eye how messy Luna's apartment was. She saw clothes draped everywhere, some garments nearly blocking half of her TV screen. She turned towards the kitchen area and saw pots and pans pilling up in her sink, along with a few other dishes; not even counting whatever was on the floor.
Luna let loose a small sigh. "It's a studio apartment…" She uttered. "And it's supposed to be small you know, it's made for one person." She stated as she stood up from the table walking over to the kitchen.
"Yea but, why are you living in a place like this?" Cana asked her. "You are a professional fighter…" She added.
"Was…" Luna added, opening the fridge, looking for something as she reached in a pulled out a bottle of water.
"Even so, you should be living better than this." Cana remained seated as Luna closed the fridge, leaning against the door of it. "Weren't you getting paid while you were in XMA?" She asked as Luna slightly turned her head to avoid Cana's gaze. "…Luna…" Cana called her name again, wanting an answer about Luna's living conditions.
Luna thought for a bit as she sighed. "It's a lot about XMA that you don't understand Cana." Luna started her voice clear as crystal. "A lot of people think that just because we're professional fighters that were draped in fame and fortune, and in reality, there's some truth to that, but…."Luna stopped her sentence as something popped up in her mind, a word that wouldn't come out for her to complete her statement.
Another deep sigh escaped her lips. "It's nothing, don't worry about it Cana…It's just business." She ended as Cana continued to look at her with a look of disbelief.
"That doesn't make sense…" Cana retaliated. "There's no reason you, an Ex-XMA fighter should be leaving like a caged rat," Cana told her as Luna leaned off the refrigerator door, walking towards Cana and the groceries that they had purchased.
"It's nothing you can do about it Cana, just let it go; what's done is done, and there's nothing you or I can do to change that." Luna tried her best to end the conversation as Cana gave a hard look, but saw that Luna wasn't interested in continuing conversing with her. "Besides, it's not so bad." Luna gave her a fake smile in return. "Who wouldn't want to have a place all to themselves?" Luna stated as Cana continued to look around her studio apartment.
She sighed as well as her head shifted from left to right, her eyes taking in Luna's apartment. "Well can we at least clean the place up?" She asked her. "I mean, what would Kaia say if he knew you were living in a dump like this?" Cana asked out with no real thought behind it, but the statement itself caused Luna to freeze in place.
She quickly whirled around to face Cana. " First of all, my place is not a dump!" She yelled at her. "And who said anything about Rakaia coming over here in the first place?" She shouted. "Why would you even say something like that?" Luna questioned her in humorous fury.
"Huh? Aren't you two friends now? Why wouldn't he come over?" Cana asked her as two and two finally clicked and Cana's face turned deep red as she nervously pointed at Luna. "You're…You're…You're…You two aren't doing what I think you're doing are you?" She asked her as Luna quickly answered her question.
"We haven't done anything, but train! I would never think about doing something like that with him!" Luna turned her head away, crossing her arms as she did.
"But didn't you two train at the school by yourselves, when…" Cana was quickly interrupted.
"Nothing happened!" Luna growled as she quickly grabbed an arm full of groceries from the table and carried them over to the kitchen, leaving Cana to give a light smile as she did. "Stop trying to make this into something it doesn't need to be," Luna told her. "And besides, aren't you the best friend here? Don't you have a crush on him or something?" Luna asked her as Cana's eyes shot up.
"What! Are you serious?" Cana screamed back with a comedic response. "Me and him? Him and me? That's not even possible! We're just friends, that's all...Just friends.." Cana breathed as Luna gave her a small smirk Cana narrowed her eyes in annoyance, but quickly switched the topic as something caught her mind.
"Hey, speaking of training, do you think he's ready to face Saitou in a few days?" She asked her as Luna put a few bags on the counter.
"Honestly, I don't know, It really depends on how quickly he catches on and adapts in a fight, other than that, I can only say it's all up to him." She told her as Cana walked beside her and was about to say something, but a loud commotion came from outside Luna's window with people gasping and shrieking for their lives.
"What the…"Cana didn't have time to finish her statement as Luna quickly ran towards her window, only for her eyes to shoot up in shock.
Cana heard the gasp escaping Luna's mouth as she too ran up beside Luna. "Luna, what's wrong, what is it?" Cana asked her as her eyes landed on a largely sized gang, catching sight of the Viper brothers, as well as the Visha, the green-haired girl that Luna nearly fought at the supermarket, leading them.
They looked at the little people that were on the street move to the side to let them by as the large group walked as one, heading towards the docks. "Luna it's that girl from before..." Cana spoke as Luna's eyes completely narrowed at the sight of her.
Seconds later her eyes shot up when the sight of Saitou and his brothers caught her attention. "Looks like she isn't the only one that showing their face again," Luna stated as Cana caught the sight of the viper brothers, as well as the large group, walking high and mighty amongst the people as they made their way towards the docks.
Luna and Cana couldn't help but look at each other, but once they did, no words were spoken, but the nod that they gave each other indicated that they were both thinking the same thing.
"Later that Night at the docks"
The moonlight shined down brightly onto the docks, coating them with a white light that lit up the night sky. The lights that surrounded the docks also help with illuminating the docks as well. The water crashed against the hard-concrete surface as well as the ships that were already pulled into the harbor.
Across the street from the docks, stationed in an abandoned warehouse, the three officers kept hidden, their eyes watching for activity as they eyed the entrance to the docks.
Eve leaned against a nearby wall, while both Tsu and Ikari stood by the window, keeping an eye out for any signs of something suspicious.
"Nothing is happening?" Ikari stated. "We've been sitting here all day, and not a single sign of anything." She groaned as she lightly turned her head towards Tsu. "Are you sure that the intel's right Tsu?" She turned her head to Tsu, who kept his eyes focused on the scene in front of him. "Tsu...Tsu..." She called his name, but her words went ignored.
"Quiet rookie," Eve spoke up, leaning against the wall with her arms crossed, her yellow eyes locking on to Ikari. "If Tsu trusts the intel, then leave it at that." She told her as Ikari narrowed her eyes at her. "Besides..." Eve closed her eyes as she spoke. "You're not high enough in rank to question anything, just follow orders when they're given to you." Eve finished.
"Hey, I just want to know if...." Ikari was about to strike back, but a shushing sound came from Tsu as she was getting ready to unleash on Eve.
"Quiet you two..." Tsu's eyes narrowed as well as he watched a large gang of people enter the docks. "They're here..." He stated, both Eve and Ikari quickly ran towards the window and saw the same sight that Tsu did.
"Wow, there sure are a lot of them." Ikari pointed out as Tsu's eyes remained narrowed as his eyes fell on Visha.
"That's not the only problem." He replied as he turned his head towards Eve. "Visha is with them." His voice was low as Eve gritted her teeth at her name.
"Huh? I'm sorry, who?" Ikari blinked with confusion for a moment as Eve, nearly bit through her bottom lip as she quickly made a dash towards the door.
"Eve!" Tsu called after her, but it was too late. "Dammit," He cursed under his breath as he turned towards Ikari. "Ikari, I need you to stay here and call for backup." He instructed her.
"Huh? Wait? What! Stay here! But Tsu..." Ikari shot back. "What the hell can I do in here?" She asked him. "I thought I was going out there with you!" She yelled at him.
"Change of plans Ikari, it's too dangerous; I didn't know something like this was going to happen." He answered her, leaving Ikari even more confused. "I'll explain later, but do not leave this room." He told her as he bolted out of the door.
"What the...Tsu...Tsu!" Ikari shouted as she quickly grabbed her radio. "This is Ikari, we have a 10-33, I repeat we have a 10-33, we need backup!" She shouted into her receiver as she bolted out of the door tailing both Eve and Tsu.
"Loud and clear Ikari, what is your location." A voice answered her back.
Ikari quickly held the radio up to her mouth as she ran down the empty hall. "The dock entrance to the shipyard." She quickly answered back as she quickly turned a corner.
"Roger that..." Was all that was said as Ikari made her way to the scene, behind her partners.
Meanwhile, The Poisonous snakes were already standing in the center of the harbor, the useless thugs looking around while Visha and the Viper brothers kept their cool.
Visha held her phone in her hand, her yellow scanning her screen as she read the time on her phone. "9:01...He's late..." She stated as she turned her head back to Saitou and his brothers. " Are you sure he said 9:00?" She asked them, her eyes narrowing at them.
Only Saitou was able to stare at her directly as both his brothers tore their eyes away from her beaming glare. "Trust me Visha, this was his idea, I wouldn't even think about changing the pick-up time." He assured her, but Visha wasn't necessarily convinced.
"Oh? Is that so?" She replied as she looked down at her phone. "It's 9:02.... And no dealer." She turned her head back to him.
"2 minutes, isn't really a big deal Visha," Saitou spoke against her. "Give him some time, I'm sure he's not far aw." Saitou's sentence was cut off as he felt Visha's foot push into his chest, sending him sprawling into his brothers as they caught him.
Visha's grip tightened on her phone as she eyed Saitou. "I'm sorry Saitou, 2 minutes may be nothing to you, but I'm very adamant about my time schedule." She turned to face him. "So," She took a step towards him. "If I say two minutes is a big deal, then trust me." She grabbed him by the collar and pulled him closer to her. "It's... A...Big... Deal..." She released him, by pushing him off of her causing him to stumble back into his brothers.
Visha crossed her arms and turned her back towards the water, which was housing the ships that remained at the port. "Sometimes, I wonder if you push my buttons on purpose Saitou." She uttered as she kept her head facing forward. "I don't understand why you would constantly try to test my patience with your useless thoughts, like your opinion matters." She told him as she turned her head back to him and his brothers, who were helping him up, but a solid state of fear was plastered on their faces.
"Visha, that's not what I was trying..." Saitou tried to talk.
"Did I say you could speak?" She turned her back towards him, causing him to stop in mid-sentence diverting her eyes away from her.
"No, you didn't...I'm..." Saitou tried to apologize.
"Unbelievable, you're still talking." Visha cut him off as she whirled around completely, looking down on the poor snake that sat below her.
"You need to remember your position garden snake, you're fangs are useless if there's no venom on them, so I suggest you keep your mouth shut unless I tell you; you can speak." She told him, earning no objection from her crew.
"You're always so harsh with your associates, Visha." A calm male voice spoke out to her as Visha slightly turned her back to see a male figure stop in front of them. His head was covered with a white hooded jacket as well as the top half of his body. He wore a pair of black pants and a pair of black and white shoes, but he made sure to keep his face covered, especially his mouth with a bandana tied around it.
"Hmph, you're late..." Visha stated without concern. "You know how I hate to wait on people." She told him as she turned around to face him.
"Well excuse me for taking too much of your time then." The figure spoke. "I didn't think a few minutes would mean so much to you." He added.
"A few minutes can make or break any situation." Visha replied, "Now do you have it?" She asked him with a small chuckle escaping the male figure's lips.
"Straight to the point as always." He replied as he stuffed both of his hands in his pockets. "But I guess that's what I like about you." He replied as he began to make his way toward her. "You remember the drill don't you?" He asked her as Visha began to mimic his actions and make her way toward him as well.
"Who do you take me for?" She answered back as she stuffed her right hand into her pocket as they both got within range of each other.
"I think we get closer, every time we do this." He stated as Visha pulled a stack of money out of her pocket.
"And every time you say that I'll tell you this is just business," Visha stated as she placed the cash in his opened hand. "If you didn't have Basilisk's approval, I would have put you down a long time ago." She told him as he stuffed the cash into his pocket and pulled something out of his other pocket, getting ready to hand it over.
"And that's why we have such a beautiful relationship." He told her as their[G64] hands were in close proximity to each other. "Maybe one day I can actually see what a female snake's fangs feel like." A light snicker slid through his lips.
"Stop right there!" Tsu shouted causing both Visha and the man, as well as the entire gang to freeze as Tsu and Eve appeared out of nowhere, standing in front of a large freight container. "Hands up guys, it's over." He stated as he and Eve both pulled out a pistol, aiming it at them.
"Whatever is in your hand, drop it," Eve ordered harshly. "And Visha," Eve called out to her personally. "You're coming with me." Her voice was full of malice and venom as she sent a hateful glare her way.
A sigh escaped the lips of the male figure. "You called the cops, Visha; that's so not like you." He spoke; neither concern nor caution escaped his lips.
"You know me better than that," Visha stated as she directed her eyes at him as they slightly narrowed. "And I believe she just called my name," She gave him a side look. "Are you sure you didn't do it, you did change the time at the last minute, remember?" She lightly glared at him as a small chuckle escaped his mouth.
"Don't get the wrong idea." He answered as he looked back at her. "Besides, that would be bad for business." He stated. "Can't have my clients thinking that I would rat them out, can I?" He finished.
"No, I guess not." Visha turned her head back towards Tsu and Eve. "But somebody tipped us off." She said as her eyes narrowed into a glare. "And when I find out who it was I'll rip their head off myself." She assured as she looked over at her gang, who quickly trembled under her poisonous gaze.
"It's over Visha, for you and your whole gang," Tsu told her.
"Really?" Visha replied. "And what do you think two-second-rate failures in law enforcement can do against a horde of my poisonous snakes?" She asked them as the gang behind her began to snicker at the sheer advantage in numbers. "If you ask me, it looks like it's over for you, blue dogs." She added as her gang members slowly began to walk towards them, surrounding them by the second.
"What do you think a group of harmless snakes can do?" Eve retaliated. "No matter the numbers, harmless snakes are still harmless." Eve shot back as a wide-crazed smirk appeared on Visha's face.
"Is that so?" Visha spoke back as she turned her eyes over to Eve. "The last time we met, I remember you saying the exact same thing, and well...Let's just say that it didn't go so well." She spoke as Eve quickly aimed her gun at her.
"Why you filthy little..."Eve nearly was about to blow her top.
"I don't think so." Saitou and his brothers quickly guarded both Visha and the unnamed man with their bodies with Saitou standing in the center with Kaitou on his left and Maitou on his right. "That's enough blue dog, you're not stopping this from happening, we have a job to do and we're going to do it," Saitou spoke to her as Eve gritted her teeth.
"You think I have a problem with wasting little punk ass thugs like you," Eve told him, her eyes showing nothing but hate towards Visha, looking passed the Viper brothers. "Move out the way or I promise you, you'll..."
"Saitou!" Rakaia's voice was heard causing all heads to turn his way as he came up from behind the group."Saitou! Whatever you're doing stop!" Rakaia shouted at him.
"What? Why are you..." Saitou carried a shocked expression as his eyes darted toward him. "This has nothing to do with you!" Saitou added. "Why the hell are you here?" He questioned Rakaia's appearance.
"To stop you from doing something stupid, plus I don't need you trying to get out of the fight. I don't want to hear any excuses when I beat you." Rakaia pointed at him as Saitou was beginning to fume at the words that Rakaia basically repeated.
"Are you serious?" Saitou shouted at him. "How dumb are you?" He growled. "Grr, forget it; I warned you, runt, now I'm going to make sure you ever regret showing up here." He assured as Rakaia gave him a stern [G86] look, but made sure he was standing his ground as well.
"Do you regret showing up here?" Rakaia asked him, nothing short of seriousness in his voice.
"Huh? What?" Saitou was taken aback by Rakaia's words. "What are you...."
"I heard what you said back there." Rakaia cut him off. "You said you have something important to do and trust me; it's not this," Rakaia told him as he looked at both his brothers as well. "You two know that as well," Rakaia added as both Kaitou and Maitou looked at each other for a moment and then turned a glare back towards Rakaia.
"What the hell do you know?" Kaitou shouted at him.
"This is what we're supposed to do," Maitou added. "There's nothing more important than being a snake, and if you can't accept that then you'll just get devoured like everybody else.
Rakaia didn't pay any attention to Saitou's brother's words as both of their eyes met. "Are you going to run with that Saitou?" Rakaia questioned.
"You don't know what you're talking about runt, you..."
"It doesn't matter." Rakaia cut him off. "I told you, I'm not letting you back out of our fight; in two days I'm kicking your ass, you can do what you want after that," Rakaia told him as he heard Visha let loose a light giggle.
This caused the three Viper brothers to quickly turn their heads toward Visha. "Oh, now I'm really starting to like him." She licked her lips for a split moment. "I almost want to sink my teeth into him, but that might have to wait." She stated as she narrowed her eyes a bit more to see Cana and Luna running up to Rakaia.
"Kaia!" Cana shouted from behind her best friend as Rakaia turned her back to see both Cana and Luna running up beside him.
"Huh? Luna? Cana?" Rakaia looked baffled for a second as the male figure couldn't help but chuckle at the turn of events. "What are you doing here?" He asked them as they stopped directly in front of him.
"We saw these guys making their way here," Luna stated as she took a step forward, eying Visha directly. "And I have to apologize for standing my date up." Luna cracked her knuckles.
"Oh don't worry about it," Visha commented. "I knew I would get a second shot at you," She licked her lips again.
"Glad we're on the same page," Luna added as she balled up both of her fists.
While Luna and Visha were exchanging words, Tsu and Eve couldn't fathom what was going on as they went from trying to stop a pick-up to random kids showing up, and getting in the way.
"What the hell is this, a daycare center?" Eve gritted her teeth in pure frustration. "What the hell are they doing here?" She quickly diverted her eye contact to Tsu. "Tsu, do you know those kids?" She asked him.
Tsu quickly shook his head. "I have no idea who they are, but we can't jeopardize their safety." He stated.
"Their safety?" Eve repeated. "They're the ones who got involved with our case!" She shouted as she turned her head towards the kids. "What the hell do you three think you're doing?" Eve shouted at them, gaining their attention. "Get the hell out of here before you get hurt." She told them as a light laugh escaped the unnamed man's lips.
"Well, this is new." He stated, catching everyone's attention. "Visha, you even added kids into this." His voice remained calm, almost taking on a humorous tone as his eyes shot towards Luna for a second. "You even managed to get a special guest to come." He told her as Visha slightly narrowed her gaze at him.
"Well, what can I say?" She shrugged her shoulders. "I'm a special person." She finished.
"Regardless, I have a job to do; let's finish this so we both can be on our way." He ended as he extended his hand towards Visha.
"Don't move!" Eve shouted as the man ignored her wishes and continued on with the exchange. "Dammit! Did you hear what I said, I said don't move!" Eve screamed as Visha eye's quickly diverted over to Eve's and Tsu's direction.
"Saitou..." Visha called his name without waiting for a response. "Make sure no one gets in the way." She instructed Saitou and the rest of the gang, quickly forming a wall in front of Visha and the unnamed man, glaring at everyone that posed a threat to the transaction.
Saitou couldn't help but glare as he stood at Rakaia. "I told you we were going to settle this when we had our fight runt, but you just had to keep poking your nose in my business." He growled at him.
"If that's what you want to call it, I'm just trying to stop you so you can actually make it to our fight, I don't want you making any excuses when I beat you." He told him as Saitou balled his fist as he, his brothers, and the rest of the gang with a variety of weapons such as bats, chains, knives, and brass knuckles got ready, along with Rakaia, Luna, and Cana who prepared themselves, as well as the two cops in the area.
"Beat me?" Saitou laughed off Rakaia's comment, his face returning back to its serious state. "You'll be lucky if you even make it back to the academy." Saitou declared as Rakaia narrowed his eyes at him as everyone was getting ready for an all-out brawl with no clear outcome.
