125. Leland

"Good now we have one end of the puzzle. Let's go for the other end." Geralt said. The agents who listened to all the wrong doings of Wilson Fisk were also surprised, even though they never cared about the underworld crimes, but the dealings that Wilson Fisk had done angered them too. It included everything. Drugs trade, human trafficking, prostitution, murders... every dirty deed that could be named. Foggy and Karen clenched their fist after hearing all this.

"Monsters and humans. No difference. Evil persists on everything known."

"Sir, you can use our car. SHIELD has already sent some agents to his home so that he doesn't run away." an agent said with a little angered expression as he too was affected by the deeds of Fisk and his associates.

"Hmm.. Lead the way." Geralt said.

One agent had taken away Wesley to be put into a prison in SHIELD while another led Matt and Geralt to the car. They soon were on their way to Leland's home. As they were traveling the radio of the agent sent the information that Leland was in a hurry suddenly. Geralt who heard it immediately said.

"Don't let him run away. Stop him at all cost. I will be there in a minute."

The agent delivered the same order and rode the car faster this time. When the reached his home they heard gunshots from far with people in the streets running away from the sound of the shots.

"S**t. Who sent people to shoot? I thought Leland didn't have security." Matt said.

"It's probably due to missing Wesley. Fisk became worried so he sent a security detail to bring Leland out. Matt stay here. This is not your fight. Let me handle this." Geralt said as he guessed it.

Geralt got out of the car and ran towards the Leland's home only to hear a screeching sound of tires coming from the side. He turned only to see a car rushing towards him with high speed. As the car was few inches away Geralt did a sideways roll to another side to avoid being hit.

The car didn't stop as it continued to sped away. It was Leland's car which came out of the garage from the side. As the men of Fisk were exchanging gun shots against SHIELD, Leland knew he had to go out. If he stayed in his home he would be caught.

Leland when he came out of the garage saw a man in silver colored hair, and from his running direction Leland knew it was the enemy so he didn't even bother to change the direction. But surprisingly the man survived as he avoided being hit.

As he sped away he looked at his rear view mirror, but what Leland saw next he would remember his entire life until his death. He saw the silver haired man stretched his arms towards his car's direction. This caused a wave of intense fire that was created out of thin air.

The wave of fire reached his car fast and it hit it. This instantly caused the car to catch fire. Now Leland knew that if he didn't go out of the car, he might die as the car would definitely explode when it catches the gas.

This was Geralt's maxed out Igni. Geralt could have used Aard but chose Igni instead as Aard might throw the car away and it might lead to the death of Leland. Igni would instill fear into Leland as it would take a minute or so for a car catching fire to explode.

Geralt came running to the stopped car to see Leland coming out of it. He came near and caught on his collar. The gunshots had already stopped as more agents of SHIELD arrived at the scene for backup by then. Geralt brought Leland to Matt and threw him down.

"Are you alright?" Matt asked.

"I survived the Trial of Grass. Do you think such maneuvers would do any harm?"

The agents came to take away Leland. The police wouldn't have any say in this matter as the person dealing with it was extraordinary.

"Thank you for stopping Leland from running away." Matt thanked the agents as SHIELD had done a huge favor to them. Geralt didn't say anything as he could guess why SHIELD showed such high favor to him.

"Let's go back. Your friends might be worried." Geralt said. They both left after that as SHIELD would handle Fisk for now and it was only a matter of time before he would be caught.

"Sir, we have made contact. He was grateful for our help and he said he owed us a favor. This mission was an absolute success." an agent said over his radio. Fury on the other side of the radio call had a smile in his face.

"I am pretty sure Fisk would run away now. But since we caught Leland and Wesley we have the chip. Let the hunt for Wilson Fisk begin." Geralt said to Matt on the way to the office.
