*POV is still Melodic mood*
When I pulled up to the location Logos provided to find this "hero" was in one of these wearhouses along the docks.
I decided to park my car in the alley behind the wearhouses to avoid giving myself away. Then I left the car and began to search for them.
It didn't take long to narrow down which of the wearhouses they were in because ever single light was on and there was three cars parked infront.
I examined the building from afae so the guard posted by the front door couldnt see me. After heading back to the alley I found this particular wearhouse had back door hidden between two dumpsters and they left back door unguarded. I already knew it wouldnt be too hard to sneak in, but this just made it way too easy.
Once I was inside I found a handful of people standing around in a group, one of them being the woman I was looking for holding a bag in one hand and a small box in the other.
I couldn't believe how idiotic this woman is. You would think a veteran hero would know to the basics to securing a base, especially if your trying to not get caught.
"You all know the deal if you want the stuff you need to provide the payment." The woman said while holding the box out of their reach.
"How do we know it works?" A man asked as his hands transformed into animalistic paws.
"Please have I ever lied to you?" The woman half heartedly laughed.
As they were discussing the authenticity of the drug and their chosen forms of payments I carefully surveyed the area.
The only easy accessible doors were the back door I came in and the loading door that required a chain to be pulled to open. I also found the electrical panel was just a few feet away from me.
"Your asking a large price for us to trust you and this supposed drug." The another man groaned.
I carefully pulled out my knife and opened the electric panel and carefully slid the knife behind the wires.
"I know its a high risk of a trade, but I pr..."
Before she could finish her sentence I pulled the knife through the wires effectively cutting off all power with the exception of the emergency exit lights.
There were a couple screams of panic come from the small group.
"What is going on?" Oneof the men growled.
"It's an old building. A breaker probably tripped from not being used in a while." The woman quickly explained to calm ever potential buyers down.
Thanks to the soft red light I could see the shadows of everyone. As they fumbled through the darkness I carefully made my way to the strongest of them. At first glance anyone would assume it was the bigger man, but the woman with the rat like face who looked just like the the one who helped kidnap Shining was the most dangerous right now.
As I attempted to sneak up on the woman the man with the animal paws began to scream as he charged at me with what I assume was a large pipe of sorts.
I easily dodged his attack, but barely managed to move behind him to avoid the woman shooting a quils in our direction. From the grunt of pain the man let out I could assume atleast one quil hit him.
I didn't want to know what she had in the quils but it didn't take long for the man to begin to stager like a drunk. Yet it wasn't enough to take him down since he kept attempting to swing the pipe around. It took throwing a knife into his leg to make him drop the pipe, and a swift kick to the gut that caused him to land on the rat faced woman before passing out.
The next person was a lot closer to us than I had noticed. Infact he was close enough to grab the pipe the previous man had, but how did he get this close without me noticing.
He swung the pipe without any hesitation. I regretfully deflected the pipe with my forearm, but it gave me the opening to kick the man in the knee. There was a very noticeable crunching sound when my foot made contact and he crumpled to the ground screaming in pain. He has already alerted everyone enough so I swiftly knocked him out before he could draw everyone to us.
It didn't take much longer to take down the remaining buyers. While the last one managed to get a couple good hits, but it wasn't near enough to stop me from getting my target.
When I found her she was attempting to fix the wires to the electrical box qith one hand and using her phone as a light in the other.
Seeing her flooded my senses with anger and I threw one of my knives at her. The blade of the knife went straight through the back her hand and stuck into her phone.
Her cries of pain brought a smile to my face.
She turned around tightly gripping her hand. I threw another knife as she faced me and the knife grazed her cheek.
"Who the fuck are you?" The woman hissed as I walked towards her.
The woman showed no sign of attempting to fight back the closer I got to her. Is she accepting what is about to happen or does she think I'm bluffing?
"You are going to pay for what you did tonight." It took her a second to realize what I was talking about.
"Look the kid was just a test run." That was a pathetic attempt to talk me out of her punishment.
I punched her hard enough to make her vrash into the electrical box and pain radiated though my arm.
"The bitch is fine isn't she?" The woman yelled. "So why do you care?"
I wasn't about to stand for her talking like that, especially about my Shining.
I kicked her jaw causing blood to fly out of her mouth.
"I suggest you watch your mouth." I said as I stood over her. "Or this will be a lot worse than it already is going to be."
