Fallen Moon

Chapter 42: Change Of Plans

An armed group of guards stood in front of her, twelve of them to be exact. A measley twelve vs. her. This hardly seemed fair. But she was told they were the best of the best. She would accept no less. So if they truly are the best, they should have no trouble fighting the likes of her.

The woman ran her fingers through her platinum blond hair. Her crystal blue eyes showing not one ounce of fear. Each guard wore durable armor and were armed with various types of guns. Three of them had a machine guns filled with silver bullets. Another three behind them had pistols armed with sunlight bullets. The third set of three had shotguns. The fourth set of three had mixed weapons. One had a saber meant to stun foes. Another had a rocket launcher and the last one had a sniper rifle armed with armor piercing rounds.

"So the best of the best you say," She slipped on her white finger less gloves. She would judge them for using ranged weapons but seeing as they're human. It was a wise decision besides not many could handle her in close quarters.

"Yes, madam," The man spoke. "These guards are the elite. Armed with weapons and gear found only by those employed by Dracula. The gear was not easy to get a hold of but you can't argue with the results. These are the finest more than enough to protect your town I assure you. Miss Liley,"

"I will be the judge of that," Liley smirked. "My town suffered a great deal of losses thanks to Lord Alexander's screw up and I'll be damned if there is another. You know the saying, fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, the blame is on me and I don't screw up." She took a step forward.

The guards stepped back watching her carefully. Acting on defense that's a good sign. At least she knows they won't attack unless they're attacked first. A must have for her new line of security.

"Before we begin," Liley stared at the guards. Her eyes trailing all twelve of them. "Know that everything you see here is not to be relayed to anyone. This is strictly confidential and if you speak a word of it. You," She walked forward, they backed up. "Become the target. You don't want to become the target. What you're about to see is far from my true potential so unless you'd like to see my true potential. I advise you to keep this fight between us. In other words," She put her right hand on her hip. "Spill my secret and I'll spill your guts on the floor." The guards gulped. "Are we clear?" She smiled at them, they nodded their heads. "Okay then, let's begin."

Liley charged forward, she slid her body aligned so that bullets being fired by their guns would zoom right past her. Not one bullet touched her flawless skin. She jumped over the rocket as it was fired at her and used the explosion to launch herself at the guards with machine guns. She backhanded one sending him flying to the wall. She caught one as he tried to strike her with his gun. She held the gun in place over his head causing him to shoot bullets into the air. She then kicked him in the stomach and threw his gun aside. He pulled out a stun rod. She dodged and tripped him. While he was falling he was struck by a palm strike being sent flying.

Liley sidestepped a shotgun blast. She pointed his gun down then elbowed him in the face. While he was covering his bloody nose. She jumped and hit him with a drill attack sending him flying back.

"You're mine," The guard with the saber went to strike her. Liley caught the saber being shocked by the electricity radiating off the blade. She absorbed the lightning channeling it into her other arm. She struck him with a light palm strike sending those same electric currents into his body. He fell to the floor unconscious.

Liley tilted her head dodging a sniper bullet. The bullet bolted past her and she rushed toward the sniper. She leapt over a rocket as it was fired at her. A guard with the pistol threw a flash grenade at her. The flash blinded her.

"Light her up," He began firing bullets at her followed by the other two pistol users and the guard with the machine gun. Liley evaded the bullets, one of the guards with a shotgun snuck up behind her while the second one snuck to her side. They both fired at once. Liley jumped over them both grabbed them by the back of their necks and slammed their faces into each other. She kicked them at the three pistol users forcing them to shoot their teammates. As a result, they stopped shooting, when they did Liley dropped down from above hitting one of them with a powerful axe kick. The shock wave blasted the other two back as well as the two shotgun users. Knocking all of them out.
