Crimson Tides (Malereader X JJK)

Chapter ~ 7

P.O.V 3rd

*SPLASH*

The sounds of splashing puddles echo through an alleyway as three figures make their way through it with the moon at its peak

"Did good today. Didn't we brothers?" The man at the back chirped as the other two men began giggling

"Agreed Akio. I wonder how much that bastard is gonna pay us." The one in the middle said as they all came to a halt before turning the corner

"Hold on. Akio, Kentaro. Just to be sure, we are killing him and taking his money right?" The one at the front whispered to his brothers getting a quick nod in response "Good." The first one turned the corner going deeper into the alleyway as the rest follow

"Kane. Be ready." Akio said to his brother who shook visibly annoyed

"Dumbass. I'm the oldest. I just wanted to make sure we were on the same page!" Kane, the one at the front leading them closer to a dingy door whisper-yelled at them causing them to get angry instead

"The hell do you mean oldest?! A minute isn't long enough to be noteworthy!" Kentaro said angrily before he was shushed by the two

"Quiet down. But, I have to agree with him, Kane. Even 5 minutes isn't important." Akio whispered yet their banter soon died out as Kane, the oldest, reached and opened the door that stood in front of them

"Well if it isn't the Yemon triplets! The job done?" A sleazy man said from behind a desk as many bodyguards stood lining the dimly lit walls of a large office space

"It's the Yemon brothers. But yes Mr. Fudoki, the job is done." Kane said calmly as he reached into his cloak's side department and pulled out a couple of pictures before placing them gently on the man's desk

The man named Fudoki let out an impressed whistle as he flipped through the photos of many different people, men and women, brutally killed in different ways "Ahh. Gotta love hitmen. Am I right?"

Fudoki gestured to one of his bodyguards who nodded and walked out into another room leaving the twins, the rest of his bodyguards, and him in a tense silence

"You guys are elite. I want to put you guys on my team. If you know what I mean." The man said to the twins causing Kane to shake his head

"We don't like sticking around for too long."

Fudoki pulls out a packet of cigars before gesturing to the trio "You guys want one?" he sighs as they turn him down wordlessly before cutting off the end of one, lighting it, and putting it to his lips "As a politician I'm supposed to clean my tracks up. Tie up my loose ends."

The trio watches cautiously as the bodyguards start placing their hands on their weapons before Fudoki takes a drag of his cigar "Hope you guys don't mind. but... GET THEM!" 

Fudoki hops out of his seat and takes off through the door his previous bodyguard left in leaving his crew to whip out their guns and take aim

"Bout forty I'd say. Whoever takes out the most gets free meals from the losers!" Akio said as he eagerly ripped out his Katana channelling cursed energy into it

"Agreed!" The other two said as the bodyguards wasted no time in opening fire

*SNAP*

With a snap of his fingers, Kane erupted multiple barriers protecting him and his brothers from the bullets before rushing into battle before them

"Man, this is pretty fun! Dominating these hopeless insects!" Kane said as his blade tore through his twenty-fifth victim while the bodyguards desperately attempted to kill him
