Chapter 8 Into The Lion’s Den Part 5

"Umm…. who are you again."

The man named Nefatari Sullivan asked with the mark of confusion written all on his face Gilda was about to answer him, but he stopped her.

"You know what it doesn't matter its clear to me what you are, a lowly maid that thinks she more than what she actually is."

Those words that left the mouth of a Sullivan was like the starting bell for a boxing match, Gilda wasted no time she charged at then man then managed to jump to his level crossing blades with him this pleased the machete. Gilda released furious slashes towards the man but he dodge and parried each one he used his swords ability to freeze her leg then he kicked her in the gut knocking her back, but Gilda didn't hesitate she simply turned her weapon on herself and cut off her leg she howled in pain but she wasn't crazy, one might think she was acting crazy it would be a honest observation given her current demeanor, but Gilda wasn't crazy she knew what she was doing when she chose the machete while in the armory she knew its ability this sword ability is probably one of the most well-known. After cutting of her frozen leg, she quickly regrew another one she grabbed her frozen leg and threw it at Nefatari as she rushed him.

"Don't get so cocky."

He said as he released needles upon needle of ice, but Gilda never stopped she let every single ice needle pierce her flesh as she continued towards him, she swung another slash towards him, and he dodge but just barley the machete nicked him only a little bit but enough to draw blood the sword Gilda wielded was pleased that it tasted his blood. It wanted more and Gilda was willing to oblige him blade number 31 Lazarus one of the mystic swords that will continue to heal its user as long as it continues to taste blood of others, Nefatari wiped the small cut on cheek, and he was filled with anger as he readied himself to take this fight more serious, he called out the name of his harpoon.

"Let's kill this lowly bitch already Glacius."

Pillars of ice began erupting from the roof as Jake and the others were watching from the ground (he... almost killed...) He thought terror and fear envelope him his knees almost gave out from his fear, but he didn't have the chance to give into it as Tone grabbed him by the shirt and screamed loud in his ear.

"Didn't you hear me jake, I said move your ass!!"

This jolted Jake back to reality and somehow, he managed to run with Tone towards the others as they ran full speed Tone yelled at them.

"Run now move dumbasses, run while there busy just run!!"

The other three like Jake were brought back to reality and began running back towards the speed boat, while fighting Nefatari caught a glimpse of the little thieving rats trying to make an escape attempt (oh know you don't) He thought he was going to shoot another volley of ice needles, but at them this time but he had no chance as Gilda kept coming after him with deadly aggression.

"Excuse me do you mind if I just deal with those little rats down there first."

He asked so casually but Gilda didn't respond she just kept moving she kept coming at him and every step she took she began to move faster, every time she swung that blade, she became more lethal the longer she fought the more comfortable she became in battle, Nefatari noticed this he could only sigh out of agitation and boredom.

"Damn you don't know how much I hate that cursed blade."

Were the only words he could say as he continued the battle while they were busy the five children of the slums were making a mad dash towards the port, they all ran harder than any of them had before but as they were running they started to hear something it wasn't the alarm they had grown accustomed to that sound no this was a new sound and, as time passed the sound was getting closer and louder both Gilda and Nefatari were also hearing this sound and the harpoon wieldier started to feel uncomfortable (great now they're going to kick my ass) He thought as four helicopters appeared over the courtyard the sight of them scared Jake and the others and they tried to run faster, but the choppers were much quicker than mere children they passed them with no difficulty as one of the choppers doors opened and a huge man jumped out the man jumped out while the helicopter was still high in the sky. The man seemed to jump without even thinking and he jumped with no parachute, but the way he jumped out he knew he didn't need one the large man landed like a meteor in front of the kids as he stood tall they saw his full size and it terrified them, the man wearing similar attire to Nefatari stood around 7 feet tall and they could tell he was made of pure muscle unlike the harpoon user who's physic was more average and when he spoke his voice sounded like thunder.

"You have the nerve to come into are home then run away like cockroaches running when the light is turned on."

The way the man or more like giant spoke you could tell he was insulted, he unsheathed the sword attached to his hip and without hesitation swung at the children, and that was the moment when collectively all their lives flashed before their eyes as the giant man's sword inched closer to them it was if time started to move slow, they all started thing about their lives and all the things they would miss Porcha thought of her brothers and sisters and who was going to take care of them when she died, Coco thought of her dreams and how she would never live to see them, Roach and Tone just thought of all the people that called them idiots and fools and how right now they were all right and Jake thought about his mother, he thought about the woman who raised him and took care of him, he thought of the woman who wouldn't eat just so he could eat, he thought about the woman who scarified for him every single day even though her body became more broken by the day he thought of the woman dying of a disease the woman waiting for her son because his said he be back and at that moment Jake started thinking out loud as tear fell down his face he said.

"I promised id be back I promised I'd take care of her, I won't lose her I won't break my promise!!"

As he screamed these words the black katana that was still in his hands started to shake.
