"The Blade is me!" shouted Rhyan as he landed the finishing blow on Tin, ending his life, Rhyan got up worried if Adrian made it, and to his relief he saw Adrian holding one of his blades and it was in Robin's chest. Rhyan lets out a sigh of relief 'thank goodness he's ok, i'm not sure what Alex would have done to me if he didn't make it' Rhyan thought to himself. "It's not over yet!" shouted Robin, still with a blade in his chest activating his Trait 1 allowing him to faze right through Adrian's grip and start a counter-attack, "i won't go out like this!" shouted Tin swinging his blade at Adrian's neck,
'Oh shit,' Adrian thought to himself, Rhyan looks up with a worried face but he was to far away to do anything "ADRIANNNN!" screamed Rhyan as the blade inched towards Adrian's next a shadowy figure intercepted catching the blade right before it landed. "How do you want me to be the eminence in shadow if my right-hand man is dead," said Alex after rushing here. "Who the hell ar—," Robin was interrupted. "You aimed for my complains head not so? Let me give you back what was meant for him." Alex decapitates Robin and goes over to Rhyan, just to check up on him. "Rhyan don't tell me you're dead," said Alex. Rhyan smiles "Boy am i glad to see you," says Rhyan laying on the ground. "Alright Rhyan we don't have time to rest, the mission is not over yet, go help out Ethan and Ross, im sure Ethan is weakened from being locked up for so long and Ross can't exactly 2v1 in this situation. Adrian and i have some business to take care of after that we will come to further assist."
Rhyan sprints his way over to Ross and Ethan's location, he can already hear the fighting from where he's at, but there isn't much time he's not sure if Ethan can keep up. Rhyan makes it to the area where Ethan was at but is shocked to see that Noone was there, "I guess they moved to another location, Ross got to him then, good," said Rhyan. Rhyan continued to follow the sounds of battle where he met up with a part time guard changing his clothes to an Arkham's pizza uniform. "Hey ah do you know where all that fighting is being heard from?" Asked Rhyan, "oh yea first right down the hall you can't miss it," said Alfart. Rhyan wasted no time and hurried over there, he opened the door only to see Ethan flying out badly hurt, Rhyan makes sure that he's alright and then looks over at Ross fighting Ethan's mom, he was struggling a bit but mostly holding his own. "Ross im here now to help Ethan, don't hold back give that woman everything you've got!" Shouted Rhyan. Ross nods in approval, then helps Ethan up. "Ahh so you're one of his friends as well, it's a pleasure to meet you," said Ethan's dad, who immediately wasted no time, and teleported to Rhyan, throwing a right hook at him to which he catches and kicks his legs up to catch him off guard, Ethan's dad teleported, away and goes for an attack on Ethan, to which Rhyan notices and kicks him in the face. "as of right now im your opponent, I hate those who pray on the weak," said Rhyan.

The rhythmic tapping of water droplets was almost most the only sound that could be heard within the dark and damp room. Almost, because the silence would be interrupted by occasional distant explosions in the distant manor of the Hozeki clan. Jessica Holden sat in her bed, patiently waiting for the time of freedom.
She had chosen to put her faith in something new, and hoped it would be the right choice. She sat up in her bed, unable to sleep at the thought of safe harbor in the capital. Not even the tapping of the water from her leaky ceiling going interrupt her train of thought.
She was so lost in thought that she didn't notice the growing shadow in the corner of her room until it had grown to human size. "Good night... or I Guess its morning now, Ms. Holden." Came the smooth voice of Adrian, already prepared for his performance. Jessica tried to calm herself, but her voice betrayed her. "Does that mean... does that mean I'll be able to escape?" Adrian offered a smile in response, "Damn straight it does, but before we act on our part of the deal, the one who set this up wants to make himself known."
