Duncan's POV:

How goes the saying?

Be careful what you wish for?

Well, my situation took a whole new turn. Never expected to be brought into the base of an assassin group.

From the hill that I stood, I glanced behind me with the corner of my eye towards some sort of fortress. The base of Night Raid.

Getting dragged here was not part of my plan. As for the other guy, Tatsumi, I feel sorry for him. After he lost his friends, he beared witness to the true horrors of this world and was dragged here.

Night Raid, huh? Interesting bunch...

Zarathos: 'Also guilty, they carry blood on their hands.'

Corrupted blood. At most, there was some innocent, but the scent is extremely feint.

In the end... maybe we are not so different...

Zarathos: 'I disagree with that, kid.'

How so?

Zarathos: 'They are gunning without thinking in killing anyone standing between them and their targets. You... try to avoid spilling innocent blood.'

Maybe, but for how long will I be able to say that about myself? Who knows what might happen if I continue down this path?

Zarathos: 'Perish those thoughts and focus on the reason for being here.'

Yeah, yeah. Vengeance, that son of a bitch, is somewhere and we gotta find him.

Any idea on where he might be?

Zarathos: 'Sure, let me whip out some tarrot cards and a crystal ball. Do I look like a fortune teller to you, kid?'

No need to be an ass about it.

Guess we do it the old fashioned way.

Suddenly I felt a hand on my shoulder. I was about to bring out my shotgun, but I noticed that it was Leone with Tatsumi. The dude looked like he seen better days.

Leone: "Ready to meet the rest of our comrades, handsome?"

Duncan: "Sure thing. Lead the way, kitty."

Leone giggle at the nickmane I gave her while Tatsumi looked at me confused. Guess to him I looked calm.

I noticed that Leone kept glancing at me from time to time. Well, one thing I can say that I like about her is the easy going attitude.

She looks like the the type of friend that would be nice to go out for a drink.

She kept trying to flirt with me. Well bad news for her. I'm taken and I'm not interested in poligamy or having a harem. Ahri is enough for me. Hope she is doing well.

But that doesn't mean that I can't return the teasing. Learned from the best after all.

Where was I? Yeah, Leone led Tatsumi and I into the base. She brought us to a large room with a table surrounded by chairs.

There we met a slender-yet-curvaceous young woman with long, purple hair and eyes. She usually wore a revealing, sleeveless lilac cheongsam with detached lilac arm sleeves and white boots. She wore glasses and had a scar on her right cheek.
