Chapter 2, Small Town Robbery

3:21pm

Scar walked outside, sword back on his waist. He went back over to the city again, a little exploring around wouldn't hurt anyone. He walked around and sees all the shops, many new and old shops he'd remember as a kid. He sees a few that catch his eye, a flea market and some smaller restaurants that he vaguely remembers going in. But this was a day of checking the place out, Scar would visit these places preferably tomorrow

But he hears something that also was caught by the attention of others, gunshots. Many of these people would runaway or hide but not Scar, this would be an opportunity to finally do something right again.

Scar ran up to where the gunshots were coming from, a jewelry store. He ran inside and sees three masked men armed with assault rifles all pointing at the people inside the building, one of them turned to Scar.

He was smaller than the other two armed one but it looked like he was the one in charge of this operation, he pulls his mask down and shows his evil looking face off. "What do we have here? A freedom fighter?"

"No, just someone looking to do the right thing."

The man laughed as the other armed man aims their guns at Scar.

Scar starts to unsheathed his sword, the steel shining off as he holds his sword in front of him. "Seone, looks like we're gonna use you again."

The man blinked a few times and laughed but gets serious real quick. "Kill him."

One of the man aims at Scar and begins to fight shots at him, but Scar crouched down and leaps away before the bullets could get him and jumps up at the man fighting at him. He slices his head clean off, blood now staining Seone as he head falls off the man's body.

The robber leader looked at his remaining member and nudges him hard. "Full auto! Full auto!" The remaining armed robber does what he's told as many shots came from his gun.

Scar would miraculously dodge the shots except one as it graced his leg. He quickly groaned in pain but shoves his sword into the man's head, splitting it open. He rushes over to the leader and puts Seone up on his neck. "Shame we couldn't talk more."

The man laughed, not even scared on the blade on his neck. "You should've killed me when you had the chance." He holds his hand out and opens it.

Scar would be launched back hard as he flew out of the jewelry store window. He quick got up as he puts his hat back on his head.

The man continues to laugh. "I'm Ludwig Trance, one and only!"

Scar quickly jumped back in the store and held his bleeding leg. "You're a wind user, able to push back anything and anyone."

Ludwig laughs. "Duh! Was it not obvious!"

Scar bends down and gets in a pouncing stance, holding Seone up close to his face. "None of that is gonna stop, even if you continue to push me back."

Ludwig got serious, using his powers to try and get Scar away from him.

Scar rolled to side and forward with each blast, dodging Ludwig's attacks successfully. He soon got close to him and jumped up, ready to drive his sword into his skull.

Ludwig thought quick pushing Scar up into the roof and leaving him up in there. "Ha! You can't stop me!"

A chunk of the roof fell down and hits Ludwig on the head, disorienting him and hurting him badly.

Scar pushed himself off the roof and picks his sword up, slowly walking up to Ludwig.

Ludwig's head was bleeding badly, he looks around and sees a cashier hiding away from all the fighting. He grabs her and holds her close to him as he points a gun under her head. "I'll kill her you step any closer!"

Scar stopped from where he was at and stared off at him, he lifts his sword up.

"Drop it!" Ludwig yells.

Scar smirked at him. "I'll do better, give it to you." He throws his sword at Ludwig.

The sword launched right into his face and pinned him to the wall, killing him instantly.

The cashier ran away from the building and so did any other people in there. A bunch of cop cars show up and run into the building, pointing their guns at Scar. "Get on the ground! Now!"

Scar turned back to this cops, he was the only one left standing. He had killed three bad people today but he wasn't sure if  those cops would see it that way. Scar got on his knees and places his hands quickly behind his head as the cops put some handcuffs on his hands. Scar felt this would be the end of him trying to be a hero, but it was the beginning.

5:34pm

Scar was being kept in a temporary cell, his leg bandaged up and his sword just out of reach. He could just try and grab it to be able to get out of his cell, but that's not a hero thing.

A door opens up as someone went to his cell, police officers on each of his sides. He was a short and young looking male, in a nice looking suit but the one thing that made him stood out more then his messy hair was the fact that he was the mayor of this town. "Who are you?"

Scar looked up at him, seeming annoyed. "I'm Scar, but the full name is Winston Lovers."

"Well Winston, or Scar, I review the footage of you killing those robbers and all I must is, you're incredible!"

Scar glanced at him, getting confused. "Excuse me?"

"You don't get it! You killed a member of gang that's been threatening this whole city ever since I became mayor!"

Scar stood up and walked up to the front of his cell. "Let me guess, you want me to stop this gang. Why not let you lackeys do the job for you?"

"That's the thing, this city is underfunded as hell. I only have one police station here and none of these cops wanna deal with those guys they have, like, superpowers!"

"Seeing was how I'm stuck in here, I just might help you."

"I can't just have you, you need more people on your side! This gang has a ton of members in there and you can't handle them by yourself! I promise you'll get something out of all of this!"

Scar thought for a moment, this was perfect, the time to finally be able to be seen as a hero again. He turned back to the mayor.

"I'm in."
