"Huh, where am I again?"- Robin asks himself.
"Chill out, you are in the car"- Replies Sakton. Robin was lying down in the backseat completely blacked out. His head was at Saktons laps.
"Yeah boy, I can't believe you were knocked out by a level 1 brentha."- Zyron says while laughing. Robin sits up, his head still hurts and he feels a little dizzy. He asks, "So where are we going now?"
"We are going to buy some guns and equipment for you and Azzkiel since you guys have nothing with you. Can't survive if ya don't fight for yourself."- replies Fraine.
They go to the weapon shop in the far east of Lythemia. They see a lot of weapons for both Robin and Azzkiel. Robin seems to look at an AR Rifle type of weapon.
"You like that? Yeah I think that will suit you. Let's try it on!"- says the saleswoman of the shop.
"You think so?" Robin tries the AR Rifle.
"Yeah, it fits you great. It has the highest fire rate than any other gun in the shop. It can fire 35 shots in one go and it has a pretty decent damage. The 311 Rapid Laser Shooter or 311RLS is one of the best guns for someone who does not have any prior experience. I think it is the best option for you! BTW my name is Furoga, I'm a sales assistant here."
"Oh, I'm REINZER but how do you know that I'm a beginner?"
"It's pretty easy, I have a lot of experience from working here so my guts tell me you are"
REINZER shows his gun to others and they look for weapons for Azzkiel.
"Wow, this looks really good and I can heal 10times better with it too"- says Azzkiel.
"In the end we burnt through all of our earnings, we just barely have enough noirs to cover for the hotel another night. Sorry we couldn't buy you armor. Guess you guys just have to be careful."- says Fraine with a low voice.
"No, we should thank you for taking care of us"- Says Azzkiel.
"Yes we are thankful that you guys are helping us."- Says Robin agreeing with Azzkiel.
Suddenly LsxD shouts, "ENOUGH CHIT CHAT GUYS, I'm hungry. Let's go eat somewhere."
"Hey look, there is someone getting beaten by a gang!"- Sakton points out to the group.
Robin runs towards them with delaying a second.
"Hey REINZER! Don't go there! You shouldn't mess with anyone here." Zyron tries to stop Robin but he fails as Robin can't seem to hear him. His mind is focused on saving the girl from the gang.
"Hey you bastards, stay off of that girl"
"Who the heck are you, back off this doesn't concern you"
**Baam!** Robin punches one of the guys.
"You little piece of sh*t"- says another from the group, and they all take out their guns. Robin realizes that he is in a bad position.
*AH sh#t, shouldn't have jumped carelessly*- Robin thinks in his mind.
"Ok guys, I surrender. I don't wanna get killed over your personal matters"- Robin says it in a drastically different manner. His anger turns into passiveness.
"Oh yeah? You should've considered that earlier"
"You're gonna regret what comes next you trash. How dare you punch me, you who I'm? I'm Mezardos, the 27th squad leader of the Guild Of Nelarthomians. You won't get out this easily." Mezardos punches in his stomach, Robin coughs up blood.
*Shooo*
"Hey what was that?" Mezardos looks to his right and one of his fellow members is shot in the head.
"Boss we are getting sniped, what do we do? what do we do?"- panics another member.
"Take cover you buffoon"- replies Mezardos. All the while Robin pulls out his newly bought 311RLS. Nobody notices him cause everyone is busy pointing out where the shit was fired from.
**Click,Click,Click**
Three members of Nelarthomians fall into the ground, one is already dead from the previous shot. Realizing that Mezardos is at a disadvantage, he chooses to retaliate.
"I'll take my revenge, you filthy assassin, do not think you have won this battle, we Nelarthomians will hunt to your grave. You don't know what you have done, but you will realize soon enough"- Shouts Mezardos at Robin while fleeing with his other 2 men. They were escaping the situation with their cars so Robin chooses not to pursue them.
"YOU IDIOT, WHAT WERE YOU THINKING? THEY COULD'VE KILLED YOU INSTANTLY YOU MORON!!!" Zyron screams at Robin.
"I'm sorry captain, that was stupid of me and I'd never do it again. Forgive me"- replies Robin in a low voice. As the heat of the battle settles in his hands starts to shake. He couldn't believe he killed 3 men in a second.
"You would be dead now if LsxD wasn't there to help you. Do not ever repeat that naivety again! Huh... Why are shaking boy?"- Zyron
Fraine approaches the girl. "Hey are you okay? It's fine they won't bully you anymore." The girl is clearly scared, she doesn't know what to do. She starts crying, tears fall down to her eyes. "I don't know what to do, they're gonna kill me now. I should've done what they asked me to, it was better to lose my dignity than my life. I don't wanna die, I don't wanna die, I don't wanna die. Not here, I need to go to my mother. She's in the hospital, she needs me." She mutters and cries uncontrollably.
"It's fine, it's fine. Nobody will kill you, we are here to protect you. Nothing will happen to your mom. It's alright, calm down." She calms down and hugs Fraine but she still can't stop her year from falling down.
"What's your name?"
"My name is Yzerte, Yzerte Trischko"
"It's ok Yzerte, come with us."
"I..I….I killed three people. They had their lives. They had their family. All gone, be..beca…because of me." Robin seems pretty shaken by the incident.
"Listen boy, you had to do what you had to do. If you didn't fire those shots, they would have. It's do or die. I've been in the military, I know how it's to take life. It's never pretty. It haunts me too but you gotta do it, for you live. I'd love to say that it'll be alright but I know it will haunt you for the rest of your life, as long as you live. This is something you have to deal with. You have no choice so don't blame yourself." Zyron consoles Robin.
They are going to the hotel to spend the night. Yzerte is with them. It's an empty desert, the road is lonely. The sun is setting.
"Boss, boss, I was attacked. They assassinated four of our men. They took Yzerte with them. But I managed to put a tracker on them." Mezardos speaks to a mysterious looking man with a voice deeper than the Mariana Trench.
"You rat! How could you lose Yzerte, don't you know how important she is for our mission? You're a disappointment. I will kill you, you bottom of the trash." shouts the mysterious man at Mezardos.
"I'm sorry master, I beg for your forgiveness. I'll return her to your hands as soon as possible. Just give me some time."
"You better capture her or you're dead. You will be with the 12th Squad Captain and his squad, don't disappoint me this time. Now go disappear out of my sight."
