Hey Mates!
I did that on purpose lads, now you'll be reading this in British accent
I decided to inspire this in the story from my favorite comic company of all time, that is DC comics ladies and gents
BTW, to be straight forward, if you don't like the idea deal with it.
Ok, that came out very harsh, but what the hell right?
I do not own Dc comics, and blahblah… But my characters are original, so enjoy them

Chapter 1
Phone Call
Unknown: (Russian Accent) Is the money ready to be traded?
David: I'm working on it sir
Unknown: Remember David, no one must know my real name or we'll lose everything we have accomplished so far
David: Don't worry sir, besides you trained me well enough to stay silent even if they have the most brutal ways of torture
Unknown: Good, talk to the man we saw on the mission briefing
David: Got it sir
Unknown: This is military class tech we are buying; they are not letting anyone through their door
David: How do I get in then?
Unknown: When you reach the entrance there will be a computer panel, type in the code "Caelum" and it should let you in
David: Got it sir, I suppose this will not take long; I want to be home in time for dinner
Unknown: It depends soldier, if we fail
Vespertilio POV
Radio Frequency System Conversation (RFSC)
Vespertilio: Beck, update status
Beck: I hacked into the cameras near the meeting point, the place looks like an abandoned warehouse where they usually stored car parts; there is where the meeting is taking place
Vespertilio: Now who would sell military equipment in such an obvious place?
Beck: I guess they didn't get the memo
Vspertilio: They will die tonight anyway; this city deserves better, not scum like them
Beck: Vespertilio, always the cocky one
Vespertilio: Heh, at least I'm not the one hitting on every girl I encounter
Beck: Hey, you gotta loosen up now and then
I was standing atop of a building a block away from the meeting point, since I was getting tired of waiting I took out my IPOD and started listening to some Breaking Benjamin to get away from the city noise
Beck: Vespertilio? Vesper?! HEY MAN! ANSWER ME YOU PIECE OF SHIT!
Vespertilio: What do you want? I am listening to some music
Beck: So… you decided to bring your IPOD in the middle of a mission to break boredom?
Vespertilio: Yeah…
Beck: What the hell is wrong with you?! A hired assassin could have come already and be finished with you by now, stay focused!
Vespertilio: Alright, sheesh, I am putting it away
Beck: Good
Vespertilio: But let me finish this song…
Beck: Oh no! If you dare take out that thing again, I'll put an arrow through your head when you come back, that I guarantee
Vespertilio: With the brutalities already, man show a little love
Beck: The only love you'll get is a sweet taste of my buttery knuckles if you continue on mocking me
Vespertilio: Hold that thought, I got something, the warehouse is opening the truck entrance, check if you can get a closer look
Beck: On it
A van approached the entrance and a man carrying an M4 Carbine approached the van, now why in the hell would a criminal be carrying a military assault rifle?
Beck: Vespertilio, I can only see one man in the van but stay sharp you may never know if he is bringing backup or something by style
Vespertilio: Beck, the man is wearing a military assault rifle; you don't see this every day with criminals around the city
Beck: Well my best guess is…
Vespertilio: I know, they are getting support from someone very important to obtain this kind of things, but the question is: Who is powerful enough to own this king of money and power
Beck: I may have a suspect already and we both know him but we can't jump into conclusions just yet
Vespertilio: You are right
Beck: Hey man I got something
Vespertilio: Spit it
Beck: The David is showing his phone to the man in charge of the entrance, I don't know what is says but sure as hell it's something important
Vespertilio: Can you hack it?
Beck: Actually I can, I just need to type the command… Figure out the wireless interlinking… and the code of the signal and… viola
Vespertilio: You impress me every time kid
Beck: Thank you… Thank you
Vespertilio: What did you find out then?
Beck: OK, from the looks of it you need to access the computer that controls the main entrance and this won't work without a code… and that is where the hacking comes in, I checked David's messages and apparently he has been in contact with someone of unknown identity
Vespertilio: Hmm… can you do something to figure out who he is
Beck: I'll try, but before you go in and trash the place here is the code which I am sending to you communicator
Vespertilio: Good, but what the hell does "Caelum" mean?
Beck: Beats me
Vespertilio: Alright, I am going in, I am using my sword this time
Beck: You haven't use your sword in a long time, I guess this guys really deserve it
Vespertilio: If we want to assure the city stays quiet for a while, David is our key
I jumped from the roof of the building and landed on the floor in a couple of short seconds. I approached the computer outside the warehouse and uploaded the password that Beck sent me to my communicator. The door clicked and I opened it to find the meeting and my reaction was to hide behind a pile of boxes that was nearby where I took out a microphone and listened to the conversation.
David: As promised, here is the money
Criminal: Is this the amount my boss requested?
David: Open the case
The other man opened the case to see the pile of cash
David: 500,000$ as you requested, now give me what I came for
The other man ordered his men to bring in another suitcase containing the goodies
Criminal: Here you go, open the case if you don't thrust us
David opened the suitcase and took out a metallic sphere
Criminal: Tell your boss it was a pleasure doing business with him, and next time we expect to meet him in person
David: Well my boss is a very difficult person and doesn't trust anybody, tell me, do you trust anyone?
Criminal: I only trust those who pay me to do work
David: Shame you can't trust your own men
The men surrounding the criminal took out their balaclavas and revealed their faces, all of them pointed their guns at the criminal
Criminal: What is this?
David: You see, it was all part of a trap and you fell like a mouse, I guess money betrayed you this time
Criminal: You backstabbing son of a bitch
David: Backstabbing? We were not even allies to begin with, you are right, money is the only thing you can trust but for how long?
Criminal: You decided to pay my men, give them new guns, and turn them against me, now what?
David: You die
The men put their hand on the trigger and shot down the criminal, David got both suitcases and when he reached the end of the stairs I put on my hood came out of my hiding spot
David: Took you long enough to make it
Vespertilio: I didn't want to interrupt your conversation with the dead man
David: Get out of the way before me and my men shoot you down
I took out my sword
Vespertilio: You know what's funny about guns, if a soldier uses one it doesn't matter, but if a criminal uses one it matters, you know why?
David: No
Vespetilio: An M4 Carbine eats bullets, and they carry 20 of them, now criminals always shoot just because they are trigger happy
David: What's your point Einstein?
Vespertilio: Guns take a long ass time to reload, about the same amount of time it would take me to kill, what is it, 1,2,3,4,5,6! 6! Men
David: Enough shoot him down
The men pressed the trigger and the mags were empty, I approached David and his men trying to change their mags, I stabbed the first guy in the gut, the second one sliced his throat, the third one tried hitting me, and so I dodged the hit, cut off his arm, and cut off his head. David took out a handgun and managed to put a bullet in my left arm, the other 3 men finished loading their mags and now my best alternatives were the shadows.
David: You managed to kill 3 of my men, impressive for an amateur.
I followed the shadow's trail and positions myself in everyone's blindside
David: What was it you were saying? That you were going to kill us instantly? You see I am better than you in every way, I wield guns and kill instantly, you know we live in the era of the future and you still use a sword, you are far from defeating me, you are nobody!
The men and David began shooting at every direction except the ground; I took out a set of shuriken and hit the fourth man in the head making it my fourth kill. Once the men figured out my position I moved once more positioning myself on the corner of a wall.
David: I will not die here today! No matter who you are, I will end you
I threw another set of shuriken this time hitting my fifth and sixth kill, once I got all men David found my location and shot at me. I ran towards him reflecting his bullets with my sword and once I got to him I amputated his right arm where he was holding his handgun, the man fell on his knees screaming in agonizing pain and in shock
Vespertilio: Now you die as a man with honor
David did as I commanded, his eyes were glimpsing at me with fear
David: Who are you?
Vespertilio: I am the guardian of this city, and a man who was trained by the night itself, those who try to poison this city will pay the ultimate price… I am your biggest nightmare
David: I am not talking if that's what you want
Vespertilio: Your words are worthless, I don't need anyone to speak for me, I will find out sooner or later who is the man who wants to destroy this city, be assured of this
David: Rot in hell
Vespertilio: Adieu
I Drew my sword and stabbed the man in the eye twisting it. When all the men were finally dealt with I approached both suitcases and took them with me. Since this incident I knew that something was after us but I don't know yet what is it, but one thing for certain is that my past is finally catching up to me. I sometimes wonder at night, how long until we are finally found by the light of the day?
Lucia POV
The light of the sun finally hit my face and woke up, the time was 11:00 A.M. but lately time is the least of our worries.
Rose: Hey sis
Lucia: Good morning
Since the day Daemon left us here we lost purpose on basically everything, every day is the same thing wake up, eat, and do nothing but stay here watching T.V.
Lucia: Rose can you change the channel to the news please
Rose: The news? C'mon Lucia it's always the same thing like someone got murdered, or a natural disaster
Lucia: I hate it when you are a clever pipsqueak
Rose: I am not short, the world is unfairly big, give me a break
Lucia: Is this you excuse for not drinking any milk when you were little?
Rose: Well you and Daemo… oops I mentioned his name, I forgot you are still secretly and madly in love with the man
Lucia: Shut up!
Rose: You'll be like; Ms. Lucia would you like to kiss me, well yes Mr. Daemon, muah muah muah muah
Lucia: Rose, you are crossing into a dangerous zone here, stop!
Rose: Daemon… Daemon
Out of nowhere I slapped Rose hard enough to leave her right cheek red
Lucia: I'm sorry, oh my, I'm sorry
Rose: Sheesh woman, since when are you this soft?
Lucia: Has anyone said that you have a big mouth
Rose: Yeah, but I miss him too you know
Lucia: I hate him!
Rose: C'mon Lucia
Lucia: No Rose, he left us without any reason, and he didn't even say goodbye
Rose: You think he'll ever come back
Lucia: I don't know, I'm not even certain if he remembers us
Rose: I bet he does, well especially you, Lucia Daemon and you shared the most special bond, and that is love sis, both of you never found the guts to express your feelings for each other
Lucia: I hate it when you are right
Rose: Hey, that's what I'm here for
Daemon POV
Phone Conversation
Daemon: I'll make the leader talk no matter what it takes
Unknown: Good man, remember Daemon, you must remain cautious about this suspect, one wrong move and you put the whole operation at risk
Daemon: Understood Sir
Unknown: This is a top secret mission remember, once you enter there is no turning back
Daemon: Yes sir, I only believe in the mission and won't let my emotions get in the way
Unknown: Alright soldier, good luck
My mission is to make contact with the leader of a gang who sold secret military tech, this guy is wanted in 3 cities already, and to me he is just another target. From the Intel I got last night, the name of the leader is Drake and he has been doing this thing for almost 3 years already, this is the reason we are putting him in the black list. This guy has sold weapons and tech to every criminal organization in Duversa. This can either go 2 ways, but clearly this son of a bitch is going to choose the most god damn difficult one.
Drake is the owner of a corporation, he is probably going to be surrounded with guards, and from my intel, the perimeter is fairly big and Drake got two sentries posted in the entrance.
RFSC
Daemon: Zack, are you there?
Zack: Do you even bother asking man? What do you need bro?
Daemon: I need Intel on Drake's personnel, I need to know who are they, where they come from, what training they got, and what are they doing with Drake, can you do that?
Zack: Man I told you already never underestimate my intelligence
Daemon: Really, well now you just sound cocky
Zack: You know me man, alright I'll get the Intel, be back with you on a click
The building was fairly tall from the looks of it, by looking at it I can predict it has 25 floors, but who knows what's inside
Daemon: Zack you got something?
Zack: Man you are not going to like this, Drake's men are part of the militia
Daemon: Militia huh… these guys aren't special at all
Zack: Here come the bad news, Drake did some experiments on his strongest soldiers, I don't know the details but looks like you are facing some type of super soldiers
Daemon: Well…
Zack: Wait; don't tell me you are facing these guys?
Daemon: I haven't got a real challenge since the incident back in New Heaven
Zack: Really? You must remind me of the old days
Daemon: Well, if it wasn't for your big head, I would probably be on my way to the organization again
Zack: And you never told me what is so special about that organization, you know you got to open up to someone one of these days
Daemon: If it were that easy, first of all I don't even remember my past, in fact the most I can remember is running almost 30 miles a day non-stop, and lifting almost 500 pounds of weights, I don't complain
Zack: Why is that?
Daemon: Because, if it weren't for those maniacs who used my mutant nature for testing, I wouldn't be able to be as strong and fast, plus I know what I fight for
Zack: You are one in a million, you know that right?
Daemon: If you say so, alright man I got to go back to the mission, I'll be in touch in case of anything
Zack: Alright man, I'll be here
The day was turning into evening and the sun was changing cycles, I opened my familiar white wing on my right shoulder and took off from the spot. After deploying I went up horizontally and then vertically to position myself for my grand entrance. I took the speed of 100 mph and I was closer and closer to the building.
I saw the top floor and I took even more speed, when I least expected I put both of my arms to cover my face and successfully broke through the window. After breaking in I began to decrease y speed to take a grip and maintain my cool, once that was done I looked up with only to see soldiers everywhere trying preparing arms. I created bolts of white electricity with both my arms and began shooting them, I was hitting several soldiers some in the head and some in the chest, and at the same time they were shooting at me. After a bullet hit my left arm I created an electric shield to prevent any more shots from hitting me, and this way I found myself under pressure since all the shots were coming from everywhere, I was about to drop my shield when I gathered electric charge from the lamps and everything I could find and released and electric discharge. Everyone in the room was being electrocuted and when I had no more energy to keep this going I finally stopped.
I dropped the weight of my body to the floor, I was exhausted, and I looked at everyone in the room only to see everyone knocked out, and some probably dead. I approached Drake to check for any pulse, the man was knocked out but it would probably take hours until he wakes up. I grabbed him and escaped the building from where I entered.
Daemon: (Panting) Zack are you there?
Zack: Yeah man, you are one crazy son of a bitch you know that
Daemon: (Chuckles) I've been told
Zack: Alright man, bring the man back; I'm sure you'll love to interrogate him
Daemon: The man deserves it
Zack: Just go easy on him
Daemon: Zack, I can't guarantee anything man
Cool, this is it for the first Chap.
