Chapter 11: Uninvited Guest
“Well damn” Arkham said under his breath. Ja taking a peak from where they were hiding looks around to see if anyone noticed them. “What do we do?” Ja asked, but Arkham reloading his revolver turns to him, and pats his head. “I’m gonna have to break a promise, but I'm not gonna fail the mission.” He said to Ja. Taking off his mask Arkham turns to Ja, “You think you can get in and out, if I create a diversion?” He asked. Ja widening his eyes in shock hearing Arkham ask just a big request. Pondering over the question he shrugs off his nerves, and nods his head. “Good kid, Knew count on you”
“Where's the brat?” The Shaitan said as he walked towards the cells. The shaitan stood 6 '3 with slick back hair, Wearing a nice suit, and a fur coat. He held a gold cane, with a golden head of a leopard on the top. Looking down onto the kid known as Lucky, his face had a scar going down his left eye, and a nicely kept beard. “You are worth Millions of dollars, boy.” He said to Lucky, who was sitting in the back of the cell, shaking from fear. Turning away from Lucky, he walked over to an older man in a lab coat looking at computers. “Are his walls down?” The Shaitan asked the older man, “Well of course sir Vladimir” the older man replied, “His levels are higher than expected today, it seems he is increasing in strength” he continued to explain, Vladimir looking out the window trying to see what the scent was he smelled earlier. “You smelt it too” A teenager says to him as he leans against a wall. Playing with a rubik's cube, Vladimir turns his attention to him. “I did, and it smelt like the boys we were late to catch early in the month.” Vladimir said. The teenager smirks, “Want me to do a perimeter search with Satra” he asked Vladimir. Walking over to the teenager Vladimir puts his hand on his shoulder, “Not yet Vocex, Your time will come” He said to him as he walked away. Vocex stood 5 '9, had gray hair with bright yellow eyes, a strong physique, and wore a suit matching Vladimir, with different colors.
Outside Arkham, and Ja moves closer to the factory, “Go through the air vents, Luckily we still have connection so we can communicate.” Said Arkham, Ja going into the air vent stops and turns around, “When do I know the signal?” Ja asked, but Arkham just smiled. “You will know,” he said with a smirk on his face. Walking away from the air vent, Arkham walks out into the open infront of 30 men armed with firearms. “ You boys got a light?” he said Jokingly as they all pointed their guns at him. “Stand down!” the men shouted at him. Ja hearing the soldiers scream climbs through the vents until he finds the opening inside the factory, Seeing three soldiers he begins to think of a plan. “5 seconds is all I need” He thought to himself before jumping down the vent, and grabbing one of the goons by the neck, and choking them out. One of the goons hearing the commotion turns around, but was too late to react. Ja quickly sucker punching one of the men knocks him out, and Using the momentum runs over to the other goon, and puts him in a choke hold too. “5 seconds” he thought to himself as the man struggled, but gave up. “I’m such a beast,” He thought to himself as he dashed away from the goons. But as he dashed away, a girl appeared out of thin air coming out of camouflage. “Who is this little boy?” Satra said under her breath.
“We said," Stand down!” the goons yell, but Arkham just smiles. “You guys are lucky I made a promise” he said as he pulled out two revolvers shooting rubber bullets at all the goons, knocking out 6 of them. Sliding behind cover he reloads his revolvers, but to his surprise he is snuck up on by Vocex who swings a scythe. Arkham reacting just quick enough to dodge the scythe turns his revolver into a sawed off shotgun filled with rubber bullets, “This shits gonna hurt” he said before shooting Vocex with the shotgun knocking him back 10 feet away and slamming him into the gate. Arkham shoots two more goons knocking them out, dashes away kicking another goon in the chest, knocking him 7 feet away, and dashing towards another goon, picking him up by the neck, and slamming him into the ground. “I have to get to Ja” He thought to himself, before feeling the energy of another Shaitan, “Another one?” he thought, but to his surprise it was Ja’s scent. “That can't be right, " he said before dashing past everyone to get in the factory.
Ja sneaking into the cell room sees the older man, Getting ready to move Lucky to the back of a truck. “Are they moving him?” Ja thought to himself, before moving closer to the cell. “I need to create a distraction,” he thought to himself before finding a bottle cap on the ground. Picking the bottle cap up Ja, flicks it at a high velocity towards the fire alarm. The older man hearing the alarm go off goes to check on it. “Now's my chance” Ja excitedly said, as he ran over to the cage, and began to use his strength to rip open the lock. “Don't ... .worry ... .I... .almost got it” Ja said to Lucky who was in the back of the cage shaking from fear. Ja, almost ripping the lock would get snatched up by Vladimir. “Finally, I've been waiting for you” Vladimir said to Ja, as he threw him into the cage with Lucky. “Shit” Ja thought to himself before dashing to the cage door, and tried to open the bars. “Hey I know I was Supposed to save you, but any help” Ja said to lucky, as he continues to struggle opening the gate. “This cage destroys any Disciple abilities you have.” Lucky said, as he slowly walked over to Ja. Turning his head Ja, feels the cage begin to shake. “What is this cage?” Ja asked before the ground under them slowly opened. “FUCK FUCK” He yelled before punching the cage over and over and over again, But for a second Ja energy gave off a quick scent of Shaitan.
Slamming through the front door, Arkham sees the cage open. “Hold on Ja!” He yelled, but right as he got closer to the cage, Vladimir came out the wall suckerpunching him away. “The boys are mine,'' said Vladimir. Shrugging off the hit, Arkham sees Ja, and Lucky fall down the cage. Ja dashing to Lucky grabs him, as he breaks their fall. Looking around Ja gets kicked away from Lucky. “I saw what you did in the hallway, not bad for a kid, '' Satra said to Ja. Whipping blood from his lips, Ja smiles. “Yeah, and that's exactly what I'm gonna do to you,” he said, as Satra's eyes glow a bright green. “That's if you can see me” She said as she walked away and vanished in his eyes. Ja, looking around, tries to catch anything out of the ordinary, but to his surprise he gets kicked again. “Dammit she’s invisible, I thought she was a teleporter like Bashiru '' Ja thought to himself.
Arkham, dashing towards the hole, is grabbed by Vladmir by the legs, slamming Arkham into the ground, and Vladimir disappears into the wall again. “He’s absorbing with the wall, no He's phasing” He thought to himself, as he activated his third wall: Arsenal. “How about I take away your places to hide” Arkham said, as he changes his revolver to a rocket launcher and begins to blow up the lab. Ja feeling the explosions, sees dust fall from the ceiling. But to his surprise some of the dust falls on to Satra giving Ja, information to where she is. “You're done now” he said as his eye turned a bright blue, and electricity like energy flowed through his body. Setting his feet, Ja Charges his punch and in a blink of an eye he dashes towards Satra punching her in the gut before she could react. Sliding back from the impact of the punch, Satra tries to catch her balance so she can block Ja’s next attack. “This boy is stronger than I thought. '' She thought to herself as she blocked Ja’s kick. Lucky looking at them fight, begins to think about what he can do, but just stands there frozen. “What do I do?” Lucky thought to himself while watching Ja fight Satra. Satra dodging Ja’s punching grabs him by the throat and slams him to the ground. “LOOK I DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU DO BUT SOME HELP WOULD BE NICE!” Ja yelled to Lucky before he got thrown against a wall. Ja slamming against the wall gets dazed from the impact to his head. Satra finally reveals herself and walks up to Ja. “Can we take a time out” Ja said jokingly, before Satra jams a pocket knife into Ja’s shoulder. “That boy has always been scared” She says as she blocks Ja’s right hook, and kick. Slamming his face to the ground, she lifts his head up, facing him towards Lucky. But to her surprise Ja is smiling. Blood covered his teeth, “ I wouldn't be too sure” He said to Satra. Satra, confused, looks up at Lucky whose eyes began to glow yellow. “Let him go” he said, Satra throwing her knife at Lucky, but Slightly tilting his head to the left the knife flew past Lucky's face. “Oh confident are we?” Said Satra, as she walked towards Lucky, but right as she took a step, the explosions from upstairs caused Debris to fall on her. Jas eyes
widen, as he dashes towards Lucky, and pulls him at a high speed away from the basement. Dashing towards the exit, they slam through the two doors, just in time as more debris covers the door.
Arkham turns the rocket launcher back to revolvers, as he takes deep breaths feeling drained from using his third wall. Looking around, Vladimir comes out unscratched dusting off his Jacket. “I've heard a lot about you Arkham” Vladimir said as he checked his watch. “The famous bounty hunter turned hero…What a waste” He continued to talk to Arkham. Hearing footsteps approaching the outside, and sensing Vocex approach him. “Seems like you did your homework” Said Arkham as he smiled. Vladimir smiles hearing Arkhams smart remarks. Ja, and Lucky popping out of the exit door catches everyone's attention. “Lets get the fuck” Ja yelled. Vladimirs eyes widen hearing Ja, but in an instant Arkham dashes right past him, grabbing Ja and Lucky he dashes away from the factory. “Good job kid” Arkham said as they got further and further away from the factory. Pulling out one of the trackers that Ja, and Ronin have Arkham puts it behind Lucky ear. “Ow” Lucky said, but Ja looking behind him, three cars approached them, and on top of the hood Vocex had his scythe out. Going into an alleyway, Arkham leaps on a roof nearby, but once he landed he felt weak. “Shit” he whispered. “That's why he was so cocky” Arkham thought to himself as he figured out Vladmir's second wall was an energy drain. “Ja, you and Lucky get out of here ... ." I'll hold them off” he said to them, as Vocex jumped on the roof across from them. Vocex smiles as Arkham cracks his knuckle. “I'll give you a fair chance this time,” Arkham said.
