West at War, Fighting for What You Believe in (Part 2)

At West Tilt

The population was preparing for an attack by Abiz with the help of Rishna, Tyson, Emily, and Clarissa creating defenses that could protect them against the assassin's that Rishna's father may have sent, barricading the door outside as far as they could to buy some time to prepare for the attackers.

"Are you sure your wood magic will hold?" Rishna asked.

"Only for 5 minutes, due to a large amount of magical energy coming from the assassins, I think that's the time we have before it crumbles,"

"Alright then, can you extend your power with more Wood Wizards?" Rishna suggested.

"No, but I could try strengthening my hold," one of the citizens told him.

"Okay, try your best," Rishna stated before the citizen left.

As the crowds started defenses for the armies, Tyson just looked at them and then remembered the Akatsuki attacking him as well as Emily, suddenly, Emily snuck up behind him.

"Guessing you're sad because Abiz is attacking us now and that he'll do everything to ----," Emily just stopped before Tyson looked at her.

"The Akatsuki came today for me, there's a bounty my head and it feels so ---," Tyson continued before being interrupted by Emily.

"Heavy,"

Tyson stopped and looked at Emily, knowing that Abiz was also coming for her Sharingan.

"Don't think you're the only one being hunted, my father never told me about my abilities and yet hid them from me, heck, I don't even know if my mother's alive or not,"

"Don't talk like that, we'll find her," Tyson told her.

"Point being, that if we want to protect our friends and ourselves, we need to hold burden with each other as well as holding them with Rane, Clarissa, and Rishna," Emily stated before leaving.

As Tyson saw the citizens of West Tilt help each other, he then decided to help as well to protect them from all the assassin who were attacking them.

On the ground level, groups of West Tilt people were using the magic they were taught by Giichi to protect their home, finally finishing their defenses, Rishna told Max to release his Wood Magic.

Afterward, they hid to make sure that the assassin's don't notice them, making sure to not even whisper.

In the Sewers

A group of Assassin were moving forward to the entrance of West Tilt, talking about the distraction of the wooden walls that were stopping them, however, some of the assassins were chatting mostly about something other else like for the fact that they were moving with an S-class Assassin.

"So mind telling me, why were moving with Chobu the Crimson One?"

"Master Abiz told us that some of the Assassin in the Shattered Avengers Guild could still be operating and it would be best to get Chobu to identify their abilities and decide which mage can handle them,"

"Alright, but it would be best if we knew where to g---,"

Chobu stopped his group before looking investigating a wall near their location, bashing through after, walking into West Tilt seeing it was completely empty.

"Stay on alert, prepare your abilities quickly,"

The assassins did as they were told before being pelted with potatoes by Aito, afterward he launched a few tomatoes at the group, they got made mad and stormed at him, grabbing him by the neck.
