The dawn wind whips past while Raven makes his way pass the lifeless alley ways, a week had passed since the spark that had ignited the realisation of wars to come, CERBERUS disappeared that day, and so did Daryun, the last Cerberus, no. There was only ever one CERBERUS.
"I've done as you wished young master, the incident involving Raven Voss, Jayson Ross and Elyan Cinker has been handled", nodding in response James continues to play with the three young rottweilers.
With his head to ground Dealer's second in comand bows in apology towads the man on the ither side of the re-enforced glass, Tobi park refuses to stand despite Duke's best efforts,
"I expect more of DEALER'S second boss but it would seem you're more of a lapdog" a voice came from the side, Duke's lips purse aligning the clean diagonal scar he'd received in combat, his sharp eyes flicker to the source of the voice and there Jaime stands with a the ex Cerberus mammoth superseding even Tobi's six five bulky frame in height and weight,
"Jaime Yourç"
"I've heared a lot about you Duke Wade" he begins, "i know Dealers have a lot of financial issues so i'll make you an offer" he states before taking a seat atop Tobi's knelt form, "I'm confident in my ability to make money, and it must be unfortunate having such an incompetent second in command....." He trails, "just based on the raw logistics ive already estimated that it'll cost fove million to keep Dealers running, fifty-fifty, after-all i'll have to start from scratch and manage it" he states, "you being in juvie is one thing but being completely crushed by Vin is another, your influence has waned, you...."
"Would you give it a rest?" Duke interjects, "Tobi" he calls, the mountain of a teen lifts himself off the ground lifting both jaime and his mammoth of the ground in an inhumane show of raw power,
"Tobi might not be smart, but he's as good a fighter as i am"
"I'm sorry boss" Tobi replies, "i should've disciplined them before we got here" he concludes,
"Either you join and serve or leave" Duke states towards the two who are now on their feet coughing harshly while clutching their throats, Jaime concealing his gnashed teeth cedes,
"We will serve" he forces out reluctantly,
"In due time, "I'll kill Vin with my own hands!!", He roars
"As you wish", Tobi bows in response.
"A tested gaming cobsole at eight hundred's a steal" the man in a white suit and an ovely long brown sock mask with it's end falling of on his shoulder, "it's the full set all you need to do is pay and take it",
"Well... isn't this the cafe's computer?" One of the buyers inquires,
"Fuck are you trying to scam me?!" The guy in the white suit shouted,
"Sir you can't sell this" one of the female employees walks up whike explaining to the man cautiously,
"What the fuck are you talking about?, i bought it, one credit fifty cents per hour right?" He replies causing the three present to look on incredulously
"Sir...um... that's not how it works"
"What do you mean?, I bought it for an hour didn't i?!"
"Well you see..."
"Just fucking buy it!" He shouts turning towards the two guys who snicker at him mockingly, roaring he smashes the keyboard against the closer ones temple, before lunging at the slow to react second, after battering the second with the now thrashed keyboard, the first attempts to attack him but is tripped by the suit man's feet before being battered to match his friend,
"Oops i knocked your teeth out, i should help you change them" ge states before fixing the keyboard keys that had been knocked loose into their mouth. Rummaging through their pockets he pulls out their wallets before emptying it of cash,
"Money for the implants" he states before jogging of out of the cafe and away from the chasing security, "I'll be back for my system!" He shouts as his departing words. Crouched in a squat and against the alley wall he counts his gains when three young men walk up to him,
"You're fucking hilarious man",
"Smart too" the guy to the left interjects
"Talk about a quick buck, hey you want to roll with us?, We're the...."
"RUNAWAYS" the suit man replies pulling off his sock mask to show Jarrett Dong's face.
(My sock has a hole in it), Laura mules while walking down the path to school,
Stolen content alert: this content belongs on Royal Road. Report any occurrences.
"E..excuse me" a call came from beside her, c..can you spit here?" A short black haired male teen blushes as he stretches his hands out in request
"What!?" Laura shouts in visible disgust while recoiling,
"I... i'm not some weirdo..... i'm just helping, y...yes just helping you to earn so extra cash" he stammered as his face flushed deeper, "if you fill this bottle" he begins before pulling out a small transparent bottle, "i'll pay you hundred, how about those socks? Are you done with them uh? How long have you w...worn them?" he rambles on vehemently,
Laura bolts away while the teen starts after her,
"wait!, I'll pay you two fifty for your piss!", Watching her disappeare into the distance his face crumbles into melancholy, (i should've offered more),
"Sir you want some?" A voice calls out from behind him, a smile slowly lights his face as he wipps his head towards the voice, Darren grabs him by the scruff of his neck,
"You should've told me, i've got plenty!" Darren states letting his spit drool down unto the petrified teens fore-head.
Laura arrives inside class while panting heavily and ger visage immediately cathes the gang's attention, when inquired of she explains the situation she'd encountered,
"he told you to do what?!" Raven, Jay and James exclaim,
"I'm serious, it was disgusting" she replies,
"Stop lying " Jayson calls, "who would want to buy your spit?" He mocks,
"If the shoe fits" she replies motioning to spit towards Jay,
"Laura are you alright?" Maya calls with concern,
"How much did he offer?" Jay inquires,
"Hundred" she replies swiftly,
"What!, Maybe i should...." Jay begins
"No one's going to buy a girls spit" Laura interjects,
"Where there's a demand there's supply" Konan states, "guys go nuts for that stuff"
"Weirdos maybe, who the hell buys, spit?" Raven chides
"I'd buy Maya's...."
"Don't you dare!" Maya interjects shooting Jay a disgusted expression,
"People like that need to be neutered" Laura says,
"Have you guys been recieving any weird texts lately?" Konan inquires,
"Someone offered to buy my swimsuit once" Maya stares
"A follower of IG offered to but my pants" Laura follows
"I've even seen some weird guy pick a used cigarette butt" Mari interjects while walking up behind Konan,
"What're you even doing here?" Jay inquires
"Konan's ears" she replies as she twists and turns the big ears causing him to blush, smacking her ever attacking hands away,
"How do you know so much about this?, Are you a also one of the many stocking enthusiasts?" Mari inquires with a mocking chide,
"What the hell!?, I only looked into it because it's related to The Runaways, it's one of their primary sources of income, The Runaways are comprised of cells withing a cell, there's little to no connection, finding the main bidy is virtually impossible, remember everything I've told you Raven, we aren't playing kid games anymore"
Konan exits the class leaving the group to contemplate when a classmate that had been present speaks up,
"Maya Remember my model boyfriend i tokd you about?"
"Really what about him" she replies earnestly,
"Oh please!" Jayson interjects, " would it kill you to lay off the lies for a day?" He concludes exasperatedly,
"You shouldn't do that Jay, do you remember tge story about tge boy who cried wolf?, He told the truth in the end, but no one believed him, she lies alot but don't be quick to judge" Maya concludes.
Jay still unconvinced keeps silence for her sake as he watches the girl bumble on with her lies, walking up to Maya she pulls her in for a hug before taking a selfie,
"He requested a picture of my friend, it just had to be you",
"Thank you Becky" Maya smiles deeply at her, her dimples showing clearly as red shades he cheeks leaving Jayson slightly jealous.
Now home Becky draws on the cigarette's between her fingers before cropping he selfie with Maya and uploading it unti Cregslist, 'selling stocking, delivery only',
"Look at all these perverts swarming me with texts, men are all the same, acting normal in public but they're all disgusting creatures inside", (Runaways are into this?, Are they like a gang or a cult of weirdo guys?, They even collect cigarette butts?, It's not like it turns to gold once it touches a girl or anything, I really should buy more socks, these won't wear themselves). Kicking away the clothes piled on the floor of her dirty room,
"Becky!, You're not smoking again are you?!" Her father barges in as he inquires,
"Get out!, Why would you even enter without knocking!", Leaving reluctantly Becky concentrates on the task at hand, a customer requesting to meet for a thousand credits was on the other end of the chat and she'd just thought up the way to get it done.
