A scream that activated his old lungs went out of him at the moment he witnessed Hades throwing one of his moonlight blades in the spots in which Victor and Michael would be, that is what the plan was about the Ambush Avoy, one of their planned in effect whenever something happened to each or all of them.
The Ambush Avoy was one of them, the plan was to actually let one of them (This time Piers) and two persons on the back of the house, the objective of the one alone (Piers) is to distract and/or eliminate the troubles, then the two behind the spot shall take the back and try to make a distraction too in case the one alone failed to attempt anything, so they distract and knock the troubles outside, if failed to attempt then they can hide inside the lawn storage.
But they were in a big trouble themselves, the man who could of seen them from even extremely far away, the one who can detect them from every spot around the house thanks to having his eyes everywhere, this time the eyes of the crows.
The blade was a simple Decoy from Hades for Piers to reveal that he was lying, then blade stock in the wooded door that it was still closed, he aimed at it instead of one of the windows in which it could of aimed at one of them.
Hades then turned around and quickly grabbed the arm which had the Pistol from Piers and moved away from his whole body then hitted strong enough with one open hand right on it so he dropped it, then he quickly moved one of his legs behind one of Piers's legs and kicked right from behind so Piers kneeled, leaving his opponent all opened to take any damage.
His next move was to pull out of his blades and get behind Piers then he proceeded to put in on Piers's neck to take him as a hostage, Hades then advanced to say some words to Piers which will send shivers down his spine, grabs his neck tide and his blade closer to his throat "How could I have known people were outside, they can't hide anymore Detective Piers, two of my men are already right besides both of them, ready to shoot on coordination by my order" of course, he was lying.
Michael and Victor hear the clank of something outside and they both move closer to both sides besides the windows of the door to cover themselves, then Michael gives a glance at what was happening inside, he saw Piers kneeling and some mysterious man holding him with a knife on the cords of his neck, Michael rushed to stare at Victor and made him hand gestures for him to get into the position of the door to put it down fast enough that the impact of the moment might surprise the attacker and give Michael a small chance for him to aim and shoot, but they were waiting for a clear momentum for not making it worse case scenario.
"Tell them that I will not harm them neither will I harm you" Hades said, Piers Startled, "What?" He thought to himself as he grudged from the position he was on since he old bones were more Francine than when he was younger, "What in the holy Burial are you saying Pal?" Piers said while thinking it was just some kind of joke, "Trust me I will, I am not like one of them, I am just here to try and protect the ones who might change some shit in this hellhole of place" He said to Piers, "And besides, I just have come to talk to you either way if you have being with others or with none".
Those words kept going around Piers head in which confused him to a luxurious mind struggle, but in fact this was a good advantage for them, this Person did not seem armed but had only knife, and besides Michael and Victor both had guns, he just had knife and one damn Crow, they had the advantage of range versus close range, so he called out, "Michael!, Victor!, both come inside" Piers called out to both, the two were baffled, "Why would we have to do that?!" Michael screamed in confusion, "Just trust me and use that key you got to open the back door!" Piers responded.
Michael used the key and Victor nodded, then he bit by bit opened the door which then emanated tension all around the dinner room, "Good" Hades said "But now maybe it kind of grossed your mind why I never asked them to lower their weapons… well, it was easier to take them than them lowering them on the floor". That took Piers by surprised but two darkened beings arose from the exterior and hit both Michael's and Victor's heads with their peaks, this distraction would of been enough for them to look behind.
Perfect timing and speed would be necessary for what Hades was planning. First, He knocked out Piers with a simple hit on the back of his head very clean with the palm of his hand, leaving Piers unconscious. then, in less than two seconds he pulls another knife and shoots it right at one of the walls in the house to confuse both of them yet again, then he runned at them, and he shot another one at the other wall for distraction, and another one, and another one, and another.
A case of literary theft: this tale is not rightfully on Amazon; if you see it, report the violation.
Until he was right behind both of them and get the perfect clean on both which was grab both of Michael's right hand which hand the Pistol on his side, and Victor's left arm which hand one Pistol too, and in that moment he kicks one of Michael's legs and throws him on the floor and he does it to Victor too, both on the floor but their pistols still on their hands, that is when Hades twist them to hurt them just enough that they both scream in a gracious rage and pain, and that is when both drop their guns.
Five seconds, five seconds, four knives on walls and two crows was enough for him to drop them both on the floor and knock both of them unconscious by kicking both right on their faces.
10 minutes have passed and Piers open his old gray wolf eyes, he sees the stairs to the second floor of his house, and when he glace on both of his sides he sees Michael and Victor, cranked to and tapped with tape in their stomach side by each and one them, they were taped together, untangled.
Then he stares and at the corner of his eye and see an eminicient Hades sitting on the wooded floor, with his eyes closed and a crow on his left shoulder. A sudden noise came from a peculiar side for him, the sound sounded on top of him, he stared up and there was a crow right on top of his head which he himself removed by shaking it off and grunting, "Do not disturb them, or they will take your eye right off your skull in a quick peak" Hades said, still with his eyes closed, "What the hell are you waiting for, we are right here can you just untie us or just talk?" Piers shouted in place.
"Sure just let me find the rest of your crew which were roaming around" Hades then quiets down, "Besides, the crows are just looking for… pray, but aside from that" He stands up "Let me get straight to the point, and to make sure answers are right I will put risk on your heads, if I do not trust any of you then one of my crows on top of you people's three heads will pop you guy's eyes right off, until none are left".
Then the crows on top of Michael and Victor start to peak on both of their foreheads calmy until they wake up, Hades then explain the same thing to them again, he then positions himself in front of them, the crows ready and the interrogation, begins.
"Day 3th of November 2025" Hades says "Two of Cytro's information department saw you and your crew going in the restaurant to just… have some dinner calm and relaxed in probably the most luxurious place in shittown. thing is, they know you, you always being living alone for years and years Piers, since your wife… passed away, it is extremely rare to happen that the day trouble starts for us suddenly you gain a crew?, that is not right, it was so obvious, but you know what happened to both of those man who saw you both, they died, I killed them, after I gained this information I was glad they talked to me, now no one knows about you two, I did not told the ones outside about this thought, so you guys are save, for now".
Hades walks closer to them, "So here is the question, are you guys fucking sure you are able to expose and reveal to the world the truths about Cytro?, and If so, what would happen if it is revealed, Utopians would not even care about it, they will be more than glad about it actually, if trouble is roaming around and turned this place to hell they would be glad that now there is a way less chance for a rise up and revelion, so… what's next?".
"What is after is the only association so secret" Piers looks extremely mad so much that he stars to close his teeth for each words, like if it was trying to close lava from coming outside of it and his stare trembling in his eyes as he looks at Hades with an inferno on them "An Association so secret that even your boss with all his means and even putting his fingers right up the king or whatever the fuck is governing this world right now butts will not be able to find it".
Hades gives a smirk "Right up, The diamond tongue of a loyal soldier, I will not torture for answering which association this is, and if they are of big help then there is then answer I wanted, now you three shall go to sleep, you all's next objectives are right in front of you, good job on exposing the truth of Cytro, now, survive what it is to come" As a flash of a light Hades knocks the three of them out yet again with a clean slice of his hand, then unties all of them from the tape, he walks to the door and leaves as all his crows fly besides him, five no six no ten, no more, it was as if the Messiah of death has come and gone, living his darkness behind and disappearing... into the light of the sun.
One day has passed since the attack from Hades, the rest of the crew got called and they all arrived at the home, they knew this place was not safe anymore, so they were planning to split their visits for different days and/or if they get called to come in.
All of them went roaming around the house when a sudden bip started making a sound, and anew it went, "Boss could you come here for a minute please?" Perry said to Piers as they all are in the secret basement, "come look at this boss" Charlie said, A hurted Piers with lots of bruises on his neck walked with small but hurtful pain to where they were, "What it is now?" He said, "Well what is it now?" He repeated, then the three of them stared at the screen "The pinpoints, there is one that is not here anymore, and it has been roaming around and around, it was not activated until now" Charlie questioned.
"A pinpoint? You guys got us market on you guys maps? Since when and from where?" Archie which was right sitting on a chair asked, the others heard so they looked at the screen too "Since you guys were sleeping in the house, we just took everyone's phones and put a pinpoint chip of all of them, it was to make sure if one of us get kidnapped we get to see it on the map, but look" Charlie points at the red dots which were on the big spacious map and a satellite view of all Grands Vilstine, he pointed at each of them "That is all of us, and the one right far away is not one of us, then if we count again the ones here is that one chip is missing and is the one far away, is your's boss" Charlie explained.
Piers then opened his phone up for Charlie and Perry to check then they noticed that indeed the ship was not there anymore, it was taken away, then Piers stared at Michael and Victor, "Do you both think it was him, did he just grabbed that ship for us to follow?" Piers said, Michael and Victor nodded, the others knew who Piers meant since they told them, Paul with a worried looked gave a pad to Piers and smiled, "Well now we where we got to search next", Paul said with even excitement yet worry.
