Chapter 7 - In Which, an Over Powered Security Guard.

"Cheap... act?" I said, dazed over to what he just said.

"What?" He asked with his gaze condescending towards me, "Is your ego broken?"

The veins on my face become apparent. "Do you really think that a genius like me has their ego easily broken? Don't underestimate me. I'm more than that."

I can feel that someone is trying to break into my brain. It's Monster. He felt it. The adrenaline pumping, my blood curdling. He felt my urge to fight, my bloodlust.

Very well, then, Monster, I propose a truce. I'm already mixed up with all these gangs and mafia ordeal, so I guess why not?

We'll talk about this later, Monster.

You and me. Like the old days.

I close my eyes and give in to my bloodlust.

*CLICK*

Ara... Logical, I never would've thought that you changed your mind about me...

Fine then! We'll talk about this later, but now...

I gaze intently towards the guard's eyes.

I have a feast in front of me.

I launched toward him with a grinning face and threw a punch right at his face.

*BAM*

Huh? Why am I upside down?

*BAM*

He hit my stomach with his palm, and I was sent behind. Crashing into the concrete wall, somehow with just a hit from his palm can destroy the concrete wall behind me.

The tremendous force behind that lump of meat... Amazing! Hahaha!

As I fall to the ground head first, I use my hands to flip around. I turn to him with a grin full of drool leaking from the playful smile on my face.

"You- Hahaha! I've found an interesting kid!" He said as he prepared the same stance.

Blood is licking from my mouth. This... Yes! THIS! This is what I've been looking for! PAIN!

I launched towards him again and stretched my fist. Then, I see it. Just a glimpse. A very fast glimpse. His right-hand glides like water to my shoulder and his left-hand scoops my legs.

He did it in a motion that is unnatural. He flows like water. A very calm but fast water current.

In a flash, I jumped and goes in between his hands and stretched my left leg into a kick directly to his head.

I successfully hit him and bashed his head into the concrete, cracking it into a spider-web pattern.

"HEHEHEHEHE!!"

"?!"

What?! He's... unfazed! I quickly jumped away from him as my fighting instinct flared suddenly.

His hands clapped at the position where my head was supposed to be if I hadn't dodged.

This man. I can sense it. He is as crazy as me.

I love it! I love it! I love it! I love it!

Ah... This feeling...

I want to crush him so much.

I launched like a missile faster than before but suddenly stopped right in front of him and bent 90 degrees backward to dodge the incoming palm attack.

Because of my fast speed, I slid through his attack while bending backward. I grabbed his already-stretched-hand and pulled myself up and kicked him again in his chin.

Then, the guard pulls his stretched hand where I'm still hanging down and throws it to the broken concrete behind me.

*BOOM* The concrete breaks even more.

It hurts. It hurts! Hahahaha! I love it!

I coughed blood. I touched my back which is bleeding severely. This is fun!

"I have faced a hundred men, but I have never faced one such as you! This is fun, YUTO KAGEYAMA!"

"Boy, what's your name?"

"Kenma Houtarou!"

"Then, Kenma... Do you want to face me more? Do you like to fight?"

"Is that even a question?"

"Mhehehehe... You're such an interesting boy... What is it that you desire?"

"What... I desire?" I tilt my head. This man... He's trying to lure me into the Yakuza. "What I desire is something you nor anyone can give."

"Hoho? And what is that?"

"To rule."

The guard's eyes widened in shock. I guess he didn't expect this.

Of course, anyone wants to rule. To have absolute control over anything in life. That is my desire.

I stand back straight again with an unsatisfied grin plastered to my face, but then I fall down to my knees. My body's shivering through all the damage that has been done to it.

I couched out blood once again while clenching my stomach.

Because of the long pause from the fight, my adrenaline slows down, and all pain finally registers in my head.

I like this... but my body has limitations.

In a second, I feel my ribs broken, my flesh tearing, my back shattered--all of those pain and exhaustion-- all at once.

I faint to the ground with an unsatisfied grin on my face.

"What an interesting boy... Boss would be delightful when he meets him." The security guard smirked.

Then, suddenly all monitors connected to the CCTV camera shut down. "WHAT?!" The guard rushed towards his seat and tried to see what's the problem.

The monitors turned back on.

The guard urgently checks all the video tracks. "They're... gone."

All files are gone. Vanished from existence.

What happened? No one knows...
