After that somewhat shocking event, Joseph directly came back home. He wasn't really saddened but seeing someone die in front of him was quite troubling. And yet, he still maintained a calm face as he plopped on his bed.
' Didn't go as planned but atleast I have the damn contract now. Ugh what a night.' Thought the young man, still wearing his feathered cloak. Since it was quite uncomfortable, he removed it and changed into something a bit better....A plain white shirt with a grey short. The simpler the better.
[ Now would be a good time to go see the Yakuza Boss and invade his mind.]
' Yeah but I need a plan. One doesn't simply go at a Yakuza Boss' house as if it's normal. Also I don't know where he lives.'
[ The Boss of the Oibara family is quite famous, I am sure you could find his house on the internet. Also with the use of flash-steps you could get into the house easily. As long as you don't abuse it since you're already a bit tired. In the end if you have to fight your way through you can with your Devil Eyes. Except if the guards that the Boss employed are really trained.]
Thinking that this was a good plan, Joseph headed upstairs and entered his ' office' . He then turned on the computer and began to search for the Boss house. However he quickly came across a frightening piece of news.
' The Oibara family known for being peaceful has now decided to get into a fight with Kobuchi Electronics. Numerous members of the clan have been waiting for hours in front of the Kobuchi building, trying to get Hideo Kobuchi out of the building !!! How is that even possible ?! That damn Hamagiri didn't tell me they had already started to work.'
[ This is quite strange, host. Such a powerful clan wouldn't send an army to wait in front of a tower. They would've just send assassins to kill Hideo. Someone is manipulating them, mist likely to put the blame on them if Hideo dies ]
Hearing Joseph cursed loudly and ran to his room. Put his outfit on again and bolted out of the house. He couldn't abuse the flash-steps so he chose to take the car that Hideo had bought him. He wasn't the best driver, but he was good enough to not crash in the first person he saw.
He quickly arrived in front of the building but there were too many clan members so he exited the car and.....
" IT'S HIM !! IT'S THE ONE THE BOSS TOLD US ABOUT !!!" Screamed one of the underling.
Joseph was quite startled but quickly understood what was going on.
' The person behind all this told the Boss about me. They knew I was going to come here. And given that Hideo is not all that important, I must be their actual target. Fuck !' Thought Joseph. Knowing he had to enter the building, he just used his flash-steps and ran towards the entrance. There were just too many people so he jumped and landed on the building, he then ran on the wall until he reached the last floor and kicked the window with enough strengh to completely shatter it.
" Flash-Steps deactivate !" Yelled Joseph as he jumped in the office, landing in front of a very terrified Hideo.
" Master what's going on ?! Why did the Oibara clan get angry at me, I never had any contact with them !" Screamed Hideo as Joseph scowled. Since he and Hideo were alone, he knew something was wrong.
The best thing would've been to send an assassin and kill the both of them. So Joseph didn't understand why no one came to attack them.
' They must be waiting for something else.' Thought Joseph.
" Calm down Hideo. Those guys are here because of Yukako. Apprently she was engaged to the heir of the clan." Said Joseph, which got a gasp from Hideo.
" You mean to tell me that....That I'm going to die just because I wanted Yukako to love me ?"
Joseph just chose to ignore him and went to the edge to look at the people under. Nothing had changed....Except for a limousine that had just appeared out of nowhere.
" It wasn't there when I arrived.' Thought Joseph as the phone on Hideo's desk began to ring. Joseph motioned Hideo to take it and the man did just that.
" Y-Yes ?"
" Um sorry about this Mr.Kobuchi....But Lady Suhara is here."
Joseph and Hideo both looked at each other, the latter confused while the former had an horrified face. He knew exactly why no one had come to attack them. They were waiting for Yukako.
" Hehehe...Just on time !"
Hideo yelped when he heard the new voice, he turned around just in time to see a masked figure grab him and put a gun against his head.
' I freaking knew it ! They were waiting for her to come !'
" Who the hell are you ?!" Yelled Joseph trying to appear atleast a little bit intimidating. The figure merely laughed and shook it's head.
You could be reading stolen content. Head to the original site for the genuine story.
" Ya know, ya should've guessed that dis would've come to dat. The Oibara are one of our partner in Japan, the other one being the government itself. We ain't gon let some random dude annoy them." Said the figure. Joseph had trouble guessing if it was a man or a woman since it's voice was distorted....As if many people were talking at the same time. The figure was weird in itself. It wore a black full-body skin-tight suit, a long dark red scarf and had a black mask with no holes. It also wore dark red gauntlets and had some sort of barbed wires around it's legs.
' Okay this is getting weirder and weirder. Who the hell are these people ?!'
[ After all this is over, I will tell you Host....I have received a message from ?¿?¿? allowing me to tell you more. I may be able to answer all of your questions. But for that you'll need to survive, good luck]
' Wait what do you mean, good luck ?! SYSTEM !!!' Screamed Joseph in his head as the sound of an elevator was heard from behind the door. Both Hideo and Joseph gulped while the figure let out a pleasured sigh.
The door opened, and in walked Yukako Suhara. The woman looked happy to see Hideo, but less happy to see a gun pointed at his head. She looked like she was ready to scream, but Joseph held out a hand and she calmed down. Joseph tries to find a way to defuse the situation, but found none. Just as the figure was about to pull the trigger, Joseph's heartbeat accelerated and yelled.
" FLASH-STEPS !!!!"
He appeared in front or the figure and tried to snatch Hideo out of it's hands, however the figure merely side-stepped. It then grabbed Joseph's hand with it's free hand, spun him around and thred him away with all of it's strengh. Just as Joseph was about to get ejected from the building, he saw the figure throw Hideo at Yukako before pulling the trigger....Killing them with one shot, a double headshots.
" YOU MOTHERFUCKER !!!" Yelled Joseph as he literally travelled to the other side of the city. At some point he finally understood that he was going to die too, but it was too late. He was losing his conciousness and could only curse in his head.
' HAMAGIRI !!! IT'S ALL YOUR FAULT !!!" He then closed his eyes, unaware that said man had just magically appeared out of nowhere and had caught him.
" Damn, Bison really did a number on you. The fucker always had way too much strengh for such a frail body." Said Hamagiri.
" Agent Yellow, and here I thought my day turned out to be a good one....You being here immediately spoilt it." Said a voice full of venom behind him. Hamagiri didn't even need to turn around to know who it was, but he did to humour the masked figure.
" Well I am sorry about that Bison, I shall disappear from your sight this instant." Said Hamagiri as he laughed. Bison began to laugh too, and they both laughed until Bison appeared over Hamagiri, trying to hit him with a flash kick. Hamagiri merely caught his foot and smiled, a smile full of venom.
" What did I tell you about waving your foot around people, fucker ?"
" Somethin' I already forgot, ya dumb cow." Answered Bison, which earned him an even bigger smile from Hamagiri.
"Well then go reflect about your actions in hell." Said Hamagiri. His muscles bulged and his whole body tripled in size. He was now a real giant, and Bison looked like a small puppy in front of him.
" Now, now...No need to get so angry Hamagiri. Is that human really worth using a forbidden ability for ?" Asked Bison, his/her voice trembling. However Hamagiri just glared at him....Both of his eyes having turned pitch black with with horizontal slits.
Bison tried to beg Hamagiri, but the giant just crushed the foot he had in his hand, elciting a girly scream from Bison. Hamagiri then grabbed Bison's head and threw him to the ground. They had been flying 400 meters over the ground, Bison crossed that distance faster than a bullet. His body collided with the concrete and Hamagiri could only a small hole from where he was. He then took out a phone from his loin-cloth and dialled a number.
" Boss I have the boy.....No' I will drop him at his house and then I'll come back....What ?! Agent Fox you say ?! What did my favourite kid do again ?!....He lost a client ? To whom ?....Oh so that's why....Well I'm still coming back after bringing the boy home....Oh and we might have to have a lil' talk with the Beast Clan....Because I feel like I am gonna explode soon....And if I do, I am gonna paint the world red." Said Hamagiri before he hung up. He then looked at Joseph and sighted.
" * Sigh* You don't know how lucky you are boy, I hope you come to realize it soon. I was too dumb and considered this power a curse, I should've seen how much of a gift it was....Don't waste it boy." Saud Hamagiri before he looked around in panic.
" No one heard me, good....Maybe I am becoming crazy and you don't have the same gift, boy....I wonder...."
Having said that, Hamagiri crouched and murmured two words.
" Flash-Steps"
******************
( On an unknown Island close to Japan, a few hours later.)
Sitting on the warm sand of the giant beach, a woman looked at the waves and sighed.
" How much time until that dumbass comes back..."
" Well the dumbass is right here, you know." Said Hamagiri as he stood behind her watching the waves too.
The woman didn't bother to turn around and Hamagiri looked like he wanted to look at anything but her.
" That thing you said about the Beast Clan, is that true ?" Asked the woman as she played with a little device she had on her wrist that ressembled an electronic watch.
" Sadly it is....'They' are going to sleep soon and the other clans aren't ready yet. We need to meet with the Beasts to see what we'll do." Said Hamagiri as he tried to look at her, but his eyes immediately went to the ground after he made eye contact with her. Her clear silver eyes freezing him.
" Damn.....I wanted to enjoy this island a bit more." Complained the woman, but she got up and turned to Hamagiri who refused to look at him.
She walked up to him, put her arm around him and murmured in his ears.
" What are you getting afraid about, kid ? I am here ain't I ? Why would any of 'them' show up if I am here ?" Asked the woman and Hamagiri finally looked at her, a complicated expression on his face.
" I am not scared for myself. Their hatred for me disappeared a long time ago. But it's just....With them going back to sleep...I fear he is coming back. Not only him, but his family as well."
The woman's hands clenched hard, enough to draw blood and Hamagiri got away from her.
" I didn't mean anything bad by that ! It's just that with what happened last time. I just fear for the future." Explained Hamagiri, and the woman calmed down.
" Don't worry it's all going to be fine." Said the woman. Hamagiri got the message and they both turned around.....Facing the thousands of agents that were patiently waiting behind them.
" YOU GUYS !!! WE WILL MEET WITH THE BEASTS, SO GET READY !!!" Yelled the woman, and all the agents bowed before they left. The woman turned to Hamagiri and smiled.
" Come with me, kid. You hyped me up so I need to drink a bit to calm down. I can't wait for our God to come back !" Screamed the woman cheerily, as Hamagiri gulped.
" Understood, Lady Blanche."
