Ark 2 Episode 11: The first step to War

Picking up some Tanks

 * AzuresatoRyu: Sighing, the small lady sat down on a bench not far from perhaps an arcade of some sort..truthfully she wasn't sure whatever it was was packed with people.. Her right hand lifted to it could settle at the bridge of her nose and she applied a little bit of pressure. At times it was helpful to be able to see just about everything in a one hundred mile radius to her but when there was so much action around her it prompted a terrible series of migranes that now she was suffering from. Often times when this happened it took her a few extra hours to get home because she was afraid to move. "....." everything had been a blur, the past few days that is.. one moment shes i serving a cruel man named keyome and the next she is under the same roof as three other men just as morale lacking. "....nh..ow..." to those who did not knowmuch about Miyuki, she would appear to be blind at first glance..her eyes were covered in a glassy silver film supporting that.
 * Pallas: -A new day dawns in the beautiful City as the three men drive through District 2. The three men in their signature black and white masks with the razor sharp teeth at the mouth area. They had been making a name for themselves the past week or so as they looked to be priority number one on the shoot to kill list. Their minds no longer set on the two resturant owners they had back at the house. It was time to handle buisness. See, after realizing the mass of people who are now on their tails Donnie thought it may be a good idea to recruit some more people to help out. He stil has his Sector teams but they are like assassins that are best used once and then disapear. They are the best at what they do and it is never good to overuse the best weapon you have. As they drive through the City, they leave the rich side of the district and come up to the more rural areas. The streetfighter, gang handling, drug addict area of the city. Zero looked out the window to see crack whores standing on the sidewalk and dealers in the streets and asked-"What exactly are we doing down here Donnie? We won't be finding assassin grade fighters out here."-This statement causes Donnie to laugh a bit and he says back to Zero-"Have I ever lead you a stray before Zero?"-And Zero nodded and said-"Touche"-under his breathe while DOnnie kept driving. Finally they reached a M.M.A. school on the corner that was rather big for the location. DOnnie and the two men got out of the Escalade and stood outside looking at the building. DOnnie then says-"Ok gents, lets go inside."-DOnnie made the first move towards the door as the other two men wondered what they were there for. What is inside?-
 * AzuresatoRyu: Miyuki had been finally getting used to this throbbing pain when all of a sudden she noticed the familiar shaped escalade and the three inside of it. She wouldn't have been as intriqued becsause there were many cars with that shape but the three inside made it clear who it was going inside a nearby building. It was a building where a few people were fighting inside, some of the skill was mediocre at best but to miyuki it had been fun to watch because she did not see anything like that except for on TV inside of the resteraunt.. "..Ah..is that.."


 * Pallas: -The two men follow DOnnie's lead and head into the shop. As they walk inside a sight of huge muscular men working out in M.M.A. and wieghts. The inside looked a lot better than the outside as it is a personal gym for the local gang known as "The Tanks." They showed great talent in their fighting skill. Black Belts in BJJ, masters of the Kick Boxing Art, and Champions in Grecko-Roman Wrestling. They were a talented bunch of people. Not the brightest or the most abilitant but together as a unit they can raise hell. When they walked in, of course they looked like a fly in milk as the fighters grouped around them with a cocky confidence about them. The leader of their gang walks infront of DOnnie, almost a dead even size. And to match DOnnie's size was to be a god damn giant. He opens his mouth and begins to talk like a cocky white boy and says-"What brings halloween to my gym? You three looking for an ass whippin?"- DOnnie laughs a bit and then goes chest to chest with the leader and says-"I wish to hire you as full members of Unit Bad Blood. And I understand that you will not respect me or my team until you have proof of our worthyness. So why don't we handle it right now?"-The leader laughed a bit and then backed up slowly-"Alright tough guy. You want to get a dent in that pretty mask of yours then come on. Bring it."-He then gets into a wrestlers stance with a mix of kick boxing and waits to see what DOnnie will do.-


 * AzuresatoRyu: "!!' she got to her feet quickly actually but she gave a weak whimper and she set her hand against her forehead that right now was throbbing and threatening toknock her from conciousness. What was donnie and zero and hunter doing there in such a dangerous looking place; she assumed why they were there as soon as she asked herself and she felt a shiver quake through her body. she was unsure if she should stay where she was or go and find them so she could make sure things were relatively alright..not that she could do anything in the first place. the safest and reasonable option was going to be heading home where grandpa was but then it occured to her...where was home?! she had forgotten already!!..There was no choice...she would have to go and wait for donnie to be done so she could catch a ride with him. so like a pup with a tail between its legs she hurried towards the fighting school.


 * Pallas: -Donnie looks at the man, he smirks and looks to Zero and says-"This will be quick."- Donnie takes his Jacket off and cracks his neck on both sides. Then he stands with his arms down, not even in a stance and says-"Ok, Im ready."-The leader got angry fro the disrespect and charged at donnie with a single leg takedown attempt. Donnie quickly sprawled ontop of the man and while he was in that position, he began to throw his knees to the top of the leaders head. After a few knees, the leader used his strength to flip Donnie above his head and cause DOnnie to flip in the air. But Donnie lands on his feet and looks at the man with a smile under the mask. The leader rubs the top of his head as he got even more upset. The leader then attempted a four punch combo. A left jab, then a right stright, then a mean left hook, finishing off the combo with a hard uppercut. Donnie swirves his head around the punches, using the super speed he is given from the Super SOldier Serum. The other men in the room were in awe and some whispers of-"How the fuck is that guy doing that?"-escaped their mouths. Finally, Donnie waits for the uppercut to come when he shuffles to the right and throws a heavy right hand Superman Punch. The punch connects into the leaders jaw and knocks him back a few feet. Donnie lands on his feet effortlessly as the Leader of The Tanks is staggering back with some blood coming out of his mouth. The men around them could not believe what was going on. But the Leader was not ready to give in yet. He had a lot more in the "Tank" so to speak. This fight was not over yet.-


 * AzuresatoRyu: Miyuki watched this show of skill from outside the building not necessarilly inside she didn't need to be to see what she was seeing; It frightened her to watch this kind of thing and yet she could not take her eyes from it. She wondered if Donnie was going to be upset with her that she had spied on him or if he would laugh at her for being so stupid as to forget where the hideout was. None the less she remained stationed outside so she could wait for him.


 * Pallas: -The leader wiped the blood away from his mouth and said to him-"Alright fucka. You're alright, but not good enough."-The leader takes in a deep breathe and activates his Chi. Being a master of Mixed Martial Arts, The Leader of this band of rebels has a special Chi. He trained in this ability for years after his black belt training for BJJ. His Chi ability gives him a maximum strength and speed for a short perios of time. His muscle mass rises and he grows a few inches from this effect as the Chi almost creates a wind aura around him.-"Come now Masked boy! Let us see what you can really do!"-Upon seeing the leader of the gang get into his advanced Chi mode, Donnie got excited. The only other time he had seen anything of a CHi was fighting Keyome and even then it was not used on the offensive like this man was using now. Donnie's eyes began to glow a bright blue as the Super Soldier serum was coming into a full effect. The room began to swirl with wind as the two power sources where huge for this world. Even the people in the room can feel the strength coming from both of these men. All hell was about to break loose. They both then charged at eachother at amaxing speeds. They locked hands and began to go into a battle of strength. The veins forming out of both their bodies as the pressure of these fighters grew and grew. Then they started to throw knees at eachother. The impact of their knees hitting eachother echoed through the room like bombshells. Then they both leaned back and came in for a Super Headbutt. On the impact of their heads, the ground below them actually cracked a bit. Even Zero and Hunter were in shock to see what was happening. Their foreheads were now locked to eachother for the moment as they both grabbe eachother by the back of the necks. This was a Muay Thai-Dirty Boxing mix move that allowed a fighter to leave the opponent trapped in a "Clinch" and use the free hand to strike the other. As this happened they both used their free hand to strike one another. Donnie throwing his fist and his elbows into the chin of the leader while the leader was throwing his huge fist into the mask that DOnnie wore. The mask being made by Iron and still being dented by the punches. They went at it for almost thirty seconds like this. The sounds of the impact ringing through the room as the others could only stand and watch, speechless. FInally, Donnie's eyes almost erupted bright blue lights as he yelled out-"Enough!"-And he jumped up with the clinch still intact and double kicked the leader with the bottoms of his feet. The leader was not expecting such speed and power at once after all the punches that were thrown and is kicked back. He flies through the group and hits the wall and crashes through it. His body falls to the sidewalk with drywall and wood covering his body as the Chi slowly faded away. Donnie landed on his back as the cracked floor could not hold the impact of his body and he too fell through. The men that were part of The Tanks ran to their leader and Zero-Hunter ran to DOnnie. After a few seconds, DOnnie slowly stands up as the side of his mask was sparking up a bit from being smashed in. Zero took DOnnie's hand and helped him out of the hole and then DOnnie said-"Did you both enjoy the show? hahaha"- Afterword they bagan to walk over to where the leadr of The Tanks had been kicked through.-


 * AzuresatoRyu: Miyuki had been standing outside for atleast tenminutes now.. Hearing those horrible crunches from bones and skin grinding together in a rapid sequence had driven her migrane through the roof. "..a-ahh...." She hoped, a little that donnie would be all right, after all she couldn't drive yet and she needed some way to get back to that stinking hideout.. Alone in the shadows by the window she would remain until he came out so he could see she was lost. "...." She had thought about peeking in so she could call for him and let him know she was there but the sound of hr voice so meek and tiny in a placel ike this would have surely shamed them and that was the last thing she wanted to do..


 * Pallas: -DOnnie and his group walk outside to check on the leader. Even if it was an intense fight, he did not want to kill the men he was trying to recruit. His mask still sparking up from the punches he recieved as small drops of blood trickle down the mask. He looks down to the leader and sees that that his face has also been busted open and blood dripping on the floor. The leader slowly comes too and begins trying to get up from the ground. Donnie puts a hand out and says-"Deadshot, nice to meet you."-Then the leader takes his hand to stand up and says-"Reaper...nice to meet you..."-DOnnie laughs a bit and then says to the whole group while Zero brings out a briefcase from the car. Zero opens the briefcase and inside is stacks of 100 dollar bills. The men go into awe, then DOnnie says-"In this Briefcase is a million dollars. This money is a contract. A contract that has you..."The Tanks"...officially join Unit Bad Blood and work for me. Reaper, you will still control your gang like nothing has changed but you will be taking orders if I need something done. This should be more than enough money to get you what you guys need. We got a deal?"-Reaper looks at his gang and then back at Donnie with the blood still dripping down his body and says-"Yeah, for a cool million you got yourself a deal."-He then begins to name off the gang as he points to another buff white man and says-"This is Gunner."-Then he points to a buff black man that looks like Bobby Lashley and says-"This here is Tyrone."-Then points to another black guy beside him that was a lot smaller than the first black guy but in no means weaker.-"This here is Tyrone's lil bro Mikey. We call him Rooster."-Then he points to a huge indian looking man who made even Donnie look like a midget and said-"And this big mofucka here is Chief. He doesn't talk much but boy will he fuck your day up if he fights you. He is not to be fucked with."-The men laugh because they know it is true and waits to see what Donnie has to say about it all. Donnie looks at all of them and says-"It's nice to meet you all. These are my right hand men Zero and Hunter. I'm sure we can all work and get along together."-A successful outing for Unit Bad Blood as they just picked up some big weapons for this up and coming war.-


 * Kila: Everyone was awe-stricken towards Natasha’s proposal to the whole plan that Logan had in store. Hey looked about to one another, Logan’s eyes focused on her. For a moment, everyone was flabbergasted, and when the silence hit a level of awkwardness, Joker called out a little more loudly then necessary, “That fucking easy!?” Sledge would shake his head from side to side, trying to get a grasp on the situation and Shade was… well, honestly, Shade was grinning like the cat from Alice in Wonderland. She truly did not like the beautiful woman being around Logan, but that was just her being a jealous woman. Logan leaned back in his seat as he gazed towards her, “And you’re sure this is what you feel is necessary?” Natasha would remain silent for a moment before nodding, her voice echoing her homeland of Russia as she spoke, “Yes… I am sure that I want you to take me home.” Logan would continue to look towards her for a few moments before nodding, “Alright.” He would then turn towards his team, giving a small smirk towards oker’s extremely confused face, “Here’s the plan then, just for the record. We’re heading for the Russian town of Vladirstead. It’s a rather large town that Natasha here will blend in with just as easily as anyone else, and along with that, there are plenty of shopping centers to keep her busy for a while.” He would look back to Natasha with a small smirk, “I sort of done a background check on you, including your bang statements. The New American government is going to pay for all necessary spending you’ll need until the issues in KasaiHana are dealt with.” She would give a nod before standing, looking over the others before speaking, “I… I don’t know what to say. I mean, I’m gonna miss the excitement and the night life of the city, but… I know this is for the best.” She would then walk over to her bags, where Kitty made himself comfortable on the flight towards Russia. She would lean over just enough for Joker to get a full look at her ass, reaching into the bag with a small grunt before leaning up with a nod before making her way over towards Logan. She sat on a console nearby and handed him a rolled up parchment, along with a flash drive, “These are both the actual and digital copies of the deed to my club in the city… I want you to get these to Keyome as soon as you can…” She bit her lower lip as Logan took them both, gazing up towards her with an arch of his brow, “You heard what happened to Tasanagi’s last club, right?” She would give a soft, almost flirting chuckle as she began to speak, “Yeah, but what can I say… that little fucker rubbed off on me.” Logan would nod again before handing the items to Sledge, “Keep those in a safe place until we get back to KasaiHana.” He would then look towards Natasha once again before speaking in a low tone, “I appreciate you coming with us, Natasha… I didn’t mean to be an ass about everything.” Shade would cough and turn to her computer as Joker would roll his eyes, Natasha’s eyes gesturing over towards them before back to Logan, “I-it’s alright… your plan did make sense and I missed my homeland. I should be thanking you.” Kitty would growl from the corner before Logan would give a chuckle, “Don’t worry…” Shade called back towards them, “The town’s airport is just up ahead. We’ll be landing shortly.” Logan would look to Natasha and give a smirk, “Before you ask, we got you a ride to an apartment complex near a ski resort where you will be staying. Consider it a gift from the President himself.” She would nod before they would hear the engine begin to die down and the warship would land, the back ramp opening towards the tarmac, cool air slipping through the air and into the cabin of the jet-like vehicle, the weather being perfect at this time of year. In the distance were the mountains of her homeland, which had a multitude of skiers going down the slopes. Across from the plane was a large stretch limo that was seemingly made to look like a large hummer. The color of the vehicle was a copper brown, the trim and rims of the tires a metallic gold. Logan gave a grin as he gestured for everyone to help with her bags, letting Natasha only get her pet Tiger as they all disembark from the carrier, leading her to the vehicle that made her eyes sparkle. She squealed as she ran towards the vehicle despite her heels, calling back towards them all, “This is for me!?” Logan would nod before giving a gentle laugh, “No shit Sherlock. Team, load the lady’s bags in the back.” They began to load the back of the vehicle with her bags as Logan would march to the side, opening it for Kitty to get in first, followed by Natasha. Her heels clacked with a giddiness to them, her happiness knowing no bounds as she leapt into the vehicle, only to lean back out with a smile, “Thank you so much…!” She squealed before calming herself and looking to Logan, a playful bite of her lip following her words, “So… you sure you have to go back…? I can throw one hell of a party.” He would give a small chuckle as he saw his team heading back to the jet, his eyes returning to Natasha before giving a wink, “I got a family to look out for… I can’t leave them here.” She would hang her head softly with a nod before leaning back up to match her eyes with his own, “Then how will I thank you?” He would hold his hand up as she spoke, a gentle smile coming across his lips before he would state, “No need to thank me… just doing my job.” She would gaze towards him for a moment before leaning forward and pressing her lips against his cheek, sitting there for a few moments before pulling away with a wink, catching him off guard as she gave him a flirty grin, “Maybe next time you get some vacation time… we can have a little get-together?” She would wink before slipping on a pair of extravagant sunglasses, shutting the door behind her only to roll down the window, “????????, ???????? ???? ? ????????? ???????? ?????!” She would look back to Logan before waving cutely with three fingers, “Ciao, mercenary boy…” And with that, her vehicle made its way down the tarmac and out into the terminal gate that would lead into the large town, letting the story of Natasha Davingport come to an end… at least for now, anyway. As Logan ran back over to the ship, Shade was glaring at him, with a look that could kill twice over. His eyes met her own and he shrugged with a smirk, “What!?” She would pull a complete 180 degree turn with an exaggerated huff, Logan now realizing what she was mad about, “Now I can explain…!” His voice faded into the Warship as the ramp shut behind him, the ship taking flight and heading back towards the country of New America, and then into KasaiHana city once again.


 * AzuresatoRyu: How long did things like that take? she had gotten a very bad feeling about where she was and every few minutes she lookedover her shoulder making sure that no one was coming near her that she didn't want near her..A.K.A anyone besides her ride inside. She turned away from the window enough to stroll out and rest at the edge of the curb. Her hand had found the side of her old bag that she had had since she turned about fifteen..it had served her well since and many times it had been the topic of arguements with her grandfather. He detested the old thing wanting her to have something new but she cherished it... "..Ah... come on..."


 * Pallas: -Reaper looked at DOnnie with the blood all over his chest and he asked-"So what now?"-Donnie quickly laughs and says-"Now you go and get cleaned up before you bleed out. I will call upon you if I need you and when things need to get done."-He begins to walk back to the car and turns around saying-"And if you guys ever want out of this shitty part of the City, Im sure I can hook you up with a much better venue to work with. A million is nothing in my book so if you ever want it, gimme a call."-He then slides into the escalade and says-"Alfred, take us home."-And he complied and began to make a U turn for them to begin their trip back to the hideout. While this happene, Donnie had no choice but to take the mask off and check his face. Luckily, the escalade has tinted windows that show nothing of the inside. It became a life saver for this moment. DOnnie looked in the headview mirror and saw that a piece of the Iron mask broke off into his forehead. Any closer and it could have hit his eye.-"What a punch that Reaper has. I can only iagine what that CHief can do."-He grabs a cloth and wipes the blood away and then pulls the piece of metal out of his head. DOing this causes more blood to come out and he has to put the cloth over his eyes. Then Zero asks-"Was he that strong? To even match you?"-Donnie turned around to see Zero through his right eye and said-"He has the strength to match my Super Soldier Serum when he is in Chi. But I can see that he read my body language well enough to know that without Chi he had no chance in winning anyways. I've only seen two Chi's now in my life and I gotta say Reapers was more effective than Keyome's. Then again when Keyome did it, I was in a Nanosuit hahaha. Guess only time will tell."- Zero nodded and went back to looking out of the window while they drove off.-


 * AzuresatoRyu: How it had happened exactly she was not sure, but it had. The escalade was taking off by the time she jolted from her daydreaming andshe got to her feet. "A-aaah! oh NO!!" Quickly she started to run after the vehicle but o course it disapeared swiftly around a corner and out of her vision soon enough because of its speed. "....Ah....AAaaahhh oh no no no!!" she hadbeen so stuid!! she'd been insignificant enough during that moment in time to be passed by and it didn't help she had been distracted! Her hands searched this bag for a phone of some sort to let donnie know what had happened but...she couldn't find it. "...What....a...NOOOOO!!" Her tiny cry echoed only a little bit causing a few of the whores to lookher direction and scoff at her; a few laughed.. fear struck her. "...oh no...." Lost. Lost in this terrible city all by herself..how stupid... In the car with three, a ring sounded..this ring from Donnie's phone if he had it on him that was and if that didn't happen then the ring would come from an in car system..perhaps alfred? Its name on the contactl ist read "Old-Geezer."


 * Pallas: -As they began to drive away Donnie's phone began to go off. His phone is connected to the car and he looks at the contact name.-"Ahhh shit what the fuck does this old man want now?"-Then Hunter says-"Just answer it boss man. What's the worst he could say? haha"-Then Zero chimes in and says-"Maybe he thinks you are out with Miyuki hahaha. It is couples night over at the Amusement park."-DOnnie raises his right brow at him since he cant raise his left one at the moment and says-"What is with you and always putting our names together? I already told the old timer I..well WE...weren't going to do anything to her."- The conversaiton kept going as the phone kept ringing, then Zero says-"Oh we know...I bet you would be to afraid to ask her out anyways."-Then he makes a girly-gay voice trying to immitate DOnnie by saying-"Because my heart...belongs to Kirei...no one else. HAHAHAHA! No Game boss man! hahaha."-Hunter even starts to laugh and agrees with him on DOnnie not having the guts to ask Miyuki out to the free amusement park night. Then Donnie gets defensive and says-"You don't think I'll do it? Bet! right now. I'll tell the old Geezer right now!"-Then Zero says-"Then do it you chicken shit! hahahaha."-Finally, DOnnie picks up the phone and says-"Hello?"-and waits for a responce, thinking that it was the old timer.-


 * AzuresatoRyu: The Old Geezer's voice crackled until finally it became noticible. " this thing on?!..damned contraption.. Eh... Deadshot is that you? I need to let you know Miyuki didn't come home from school today; It aint nothin big.. but I know where she goes sometimes... I think she'll be in the middle of District 2 where that fightingplace or something or other is.. ehh..I'm not sure. she gets migranes often because...ah.. she just gets them and she rests there because she can't move for a bit... would ya try n find her? She should be home soon enough but.I'm worried." Had she been there? they would have surely seen her aftr all the nearly glowed compared to all of the other darker dressed patrons. "Hope ya find 'er don't come back til ya do!!" The geezer hung up, clearly he had made his point atleast in his mind he had.


 * XxDensukexX: Ochigi and Tetsu watched the news intensively and with disgust. “Burned to a crisp huh…..can’t save em all then can I dad.” Tetsu held his dead down in disappointment, feeling such sorrow for the folks he could not save. “You stop it right now Tetsu. We agreed that no matter what, we’d fight the good fight together. I know you want to save everyone, but the reality of it all is that you can’t…..save everyone….”Tetsu watched his father pause for a second. More than likely thinking of his moms murder, and how his father understood better than anyone how he was feeling. “Your right dad. I’m sorry for complaining. Theres not time for this. The suit will be done by tomorrow right? The real one?” Tetsu walked over to the glass case his suit was kept in. Admiring the black shing that emitted off the arm plate. “Definitly. It’s been two weeks, but it’ll all come together tomorrow by this time. The city will have it’s God at peak perfective capacity. I’ve yet to go over the specs with you though.” Tetsu shrugged. “I know theres no gadgetry yet, except what I usually carry, even though it’s indestructible, I can be pushed back with extereme force, the helmet systems have night vision, substance vision, x-ray which doesn’t effect lead, and a target lock, and as of this moment, the special suit designed to allow me to move in the suit is also being worked on, to maximize my movement. I think I got the basis…..of the prototype anyway”. Tetsu smirked in satisfaction. “Well we know where your mouth came from haha, alright son, so about your plan to join the kpd?” Tetsu quickly replied “already filled in an application, and theres a meet going on down there today for recruits, if I work my way up, I can nab the data files on Yakuza members, and also find out about this mystery bomber if at all possible….and how they got there hands on plasma. That’s some expensive stuff.” Ochigi nodded in agreement. “Who ever they are, they’ve got money. Meaning they pay taxes and other bills, so currency records might be on your list to. God speed son, I’m going back to work on the suit”. Tetsu noded as he headed out the underground mansion, and made for the cave that leads to the sewers of District 2. Poking his head out of a manhole in the middle of a dead street after along walk under the city, he’d hike out, making sure no one was around to see him. Simply dusting himself off, and chasing down the nearest taxi driver to get him to the KPD central.
