The Retribution Group. A group formed from the remnants of organizations that were attacked by the Elite Seven of the Empire. One of them is Mudi, the leader of the group, and former member of the Gravekeepers.
Currently, his team was walking up a rocky hill, turning his head around. Behind him were Najasho and Akira, the two of them acting as his bodyguards. Mudi had found Najasho at the bottom of a large gap inside the tomb his former comrades once protected. How he turned Najasho over to his side was by using a parasite that the Gravekeepers would often use to control others, so with Najasho being infected by it, he was now Mudi's puppet to control. The same way was with Akira, the former Gravekeeper having heard the news of the death of Merraid Oarburgh.
He scouted out the remains of the destroyed Oarburgh hideout, Mudi finding a river. As he traversed down it, he had grinned to himself. There lying unconscious on the bank of the river is the Elite Seven's No. 2, Akira. Akira's clothes had been torn in half, half of his upper chest having burn marks and many slash and stab wounds all over his body due to his fight with Merraid. And like Najasho, Mudi used the same process on Akira.
Mudi then faces the front, seeing the rest of his teammates. They hadn't removed their cloaks like Najasho or removing the hood like Akira. Mudi then sighs as they continued walking up the rocky hill of Mount Hakuba.
Mudi: "When it comes to revenge, it's all about drawing out the process, draining their strength until you've achieved your goal." (legs shaking) "But seriously, what is the deal...with all these mountain paths...?"
???1: "He's already barely able to walk."
???2: "Pathetic."
Mudi: (panting heavily) "Y-Yeah? Well, so what? I've got them."
Najasho: "Are you all right, shrimp master?"
Akira: "Need someone killed? If you don't got any, don't bother asking me anything."
Mudi: (mutters) "Though, they could use a lesson on manners..."
Akira: "So? What do you want to do?"
Najasho: "He's right, shrimp master. We're surrounded."
Soon, people come out from hiding behind the rocks and high-end areas of the mountain. The two cloaked persons, Najasho, Akira, and Mudi were now surrounded by the supposed bandit group.
Bandit 1: "By the looks of you, you lot can't be up to any good! What are you doing here!?"
Mudi: "We want you to hire us. We're selling you our services. Please let us meet with your boss." (holds up wine jar) "Look! We've even brought Putra liquor as a gift."
Bandit 1: (crosses arms) "Any new members wishing to join us are required to go through a rigorous inspection."
Mudi: "Ah! Don't treat us like rookie recruits! Think of us more like bouncers. Real masters of trade you can rely on to come running at every, 'please help!'"
Bandit: "What a clown...if you're going to be bouncers...then let's see what you're made of."
Mudi: "Très bien! Very well. Time for some spotlight!"
???1: "Understood."
The first cloaked person of the Retribution Group took it off, revealing it to be two children, one sitting on the other person's shoulder. Dual knives were strapped to their waists on their belts.
???1: "Behold the power of sisterhood!"
Upon seeing the two children, the bandit group begins laughing, making the children pout in annoyance.
