Flashback
Najenda is sitting in the dining area with a small stack of papers as Saito enters the room holding a cup of coffee in his hand
Saito sat down across from her "So what's the mark Najenda?"
Najenda placed a drawing of a young woman on the table " A woman who calls herself Professor a scientist so to speak"
"This woman has been raiding small villages kidnapping everyone regardless of Age, or Sex."Najenda tapped on the drawing "This is a request from the Revolutionary Army, Professor has been kidnapping people that they worried about her from what she's trying to achieve is still unknown but the results always end the same the victims dead in a gruesome matter."
"Professor has no affiliation to Imperial Army but she has a small private army in his pocket they are all equally guilty as well"
Saito picked up the drawing as he sips his coffee "What are we up against?"
"From the reports." Najenda looked at Saito's face and smiled with determinations "Nothing you all can't handle."
Night Raid couldn't find Ghost and has relocated far southeast of the Capital to a rocky mountain unexplored area for hiding until the Revolutionary Army find a suitable base for them near the Capital. Night Raid with two new additional members name Susanoo a human Teigu, and Chelsea a girl with a Teigu that can change her appearance to anyone or any animal.
"So Ghost is Saito?" Najenda hearing the news about Ghost for the first time.
"Yes, he saved my life...twice actually." Tatsumi answer
Najenda chuckled a little "I see"(Guess I know him too well)
"So ...what are we gonna do about him?" Lubbock stepping in "It's not like we can track him down and get him."
Najenda pull out a cigarette and lighten it "I ask the Revolutionary Army to help locate Saito, given he founded our old base so he should be somewhere near or in the Captial"
Akame, Leone and Mine face brighten hearing that they'll see Saito soon in the near future
"I don't think it really matters."Chelsea spoke up catching everyone's attention.
"Huh!? What are you saying we'll get him back!" Mine agitated at Chelsea a statement
"Well, this Saito is hard to find the fact that he nicknamed himself Ghost almost seems fitting." Chelsea unwraps a lollipop. "We even found a small trail of his blood and still couldn't find him"
Chelsea puts the lollipop in her mouth "I've read the old report about he was captured, soon Killed in Action when you located him but he cheated death and hasn't returned back. As a killer, I would say he's skillful but also a coward
Mine gripped her fist in anger as Chelsea walks out of the room
"..."
"..."
"..."
"Everything she does pisses me off!"
Najenda exhaled her smoke "As always she so blunt but in the meantime, while we're here we gonna focus on training for the durations of time once we return near the Capital we'll get Saito back.
Everyone agreed with a "Roger that" Everyone went off to do their thing leaving Tatsumi becoming more curious about what was Saito to them and asked everyone expect Susanno and Chelsea
Lubbock
"Saito?...He's like the caretaker of Night Raid whether on a mission or not he always make sure everyone is alright."
(Caretaker?)
"But" Lubbock face started to look annoyed for some reason "I did felt a bit of rivalry when he was here."
...(Rivalry?)
Mine
"He was- is like a big brother he greeted me with a smile when I joined"
(Big Brother?)
"Anyway," Mine pointed at Tatsumi face with big smug on her face "Saito's a 100 times better than you as an assassin!"
"Yeah...thanks for that." Tatsumi became annoyed by that
Leone
"Saito is my drinking buddy and he's my "mate"
(Mate?)
"Also." Leone scarring smiled and cracking her knuckles frightening Tatsumi "Once I get my hands on him his big sister will punish him leaving us hehe!"
...(I don't know if I should be worried about the guy?)
Akame
...
...(Is she gonna say something?)
"He's...he's someone I really care about." Akame lowers her head then whisper to herself "And Saito made a promise to me."
...(Someone Akame really cares about?)
(Guess Saito was really liked before he became Ghost) Tatsumi scratched his head (I wonder what's he doing now?)
The Capital
With the Security Squad Jaegers lead by General Esdeath in the Capital, criminal organizations have been taken down or halted by them more or less but it's not enough for some people "And that's what everything that." A little girl only wearing just a hoodie covered in bruises and cut explaining her story about her and 2 other friends were brutally tortured and killed "one of my closest friend Fal died in a week, In the end, she lost all of her teeth and fingers."
"..."
"Luna my other closest friend couldn't bear it...she...she threw herself from the rooftop"
"..."
"After hearing that I thought that I definitely can't die. I immediately became a loyal dog pleasing that man everyday and night soon I became adored and I'm allowed to go outside ."
"..."
"But there's no way I can Forgive them!"The girl became enraged. "There's no way I would!"
"I've heard of you ...the Masked Assassin Ghost"The girl tossed a small bag of gold coins at Ghost." Please...please somehow fulfill my vengeance that I can't carry out myself!"
"...I got it". Ghost walks away in the night. "Those bastards will die."
Tears started to stream from the girl's eye "Thank you!"
Ghost located the building where his marks are in he can even hear them toasting about bringing new "lively ones" soon. Enraging him he'll make this up close and personal. The front door is only guarded by one guy having his last smoke.
Ghost walks up to the guard. "Hey! who the hel-"He simply ignored him and stabbed him in the throat with his hidden blade and continue his way inside.
Ghost walks in, stands in front of them rows of tables of guards and his four marks "Try the bitter it's actually quite edible." Everyone stop eating and stared at Ghost, the guards immediately roused up ready with swords and knives. Go on! Enjoy your last meal!"
His four marks just laughed at him thinking he has a death wish and orders their guards to kill him. Just as one of the guards reaches for Ghost, Ghost presses his sheath trigger injecting the blade hitting the guard chin with its hilt send the guard flying to the ceiling head first killing him. "Whoops" Ghost sarcastically said as he scratches his head and looked at everyone
"You bastard!" The rest of guards rushed in. Ghost catches his blade and sheath his blade again. "You will all die." Ghost slices every guard with one slash including two of his marks
A man with cones on his head laying down playing dead (Who the hell is this guy!? but I'll get through by playing dead) (Thank god I had a watch over my chest)
"Hey.."Ghost pokes the cone head man "playing dead can be fun and all but let's try the real deal."Ghost stabbed his throat before the man could react.
Ghost looked around only seeing three marks assassinated not four. "Huh, one got away, oh well he'll be dead soon."
(Elsewhere)
A young blonde man running through an escape tunnel with two guards. "Ha! Just in case something like this happened, I've got an escape route-"
One of the Jaegers Seryu and Coro was standing in front the blonde man looking all pissed. "We received evidence you have been purchasing innocent children and killing them for a sick pleasure. Two of the blondes guards run towards to attack Seryu but Coro just simply ate them scarring the blonde.
"Wait, wait listen to what I have to say, there's a reason why I turned out like this!" The blonde tear opens his shirt revealing a slave mark on his chest. "You see my mothe-"
"So you admit to doing evil, "Seryu interrupted with a sinister smile "In the name of Absolute Justice, I will put the end of your evil!" Coro bite Seryu mechanical arm to reveal a giant arm sword scarring the blonde even more
The blonde screamed dying horribly into the night. " Ah, there it is!" Ghost sitting on the roof hearing the scream as he's looking at the night sky. "...I got your revenge little girl" The very next morning the little girl who asked Ghost for revenge is now in a better place knowing she got revenge for her friends and will be seeing them soon.
"Seryu manages to kill one of them from escaping in an underground tunnel as for the others they were already been killed by someone else before she arrived." Run reporting to Esdeath "I'm sure this is the work of Ghost again."
"Ghost huh." Esdeath tipping her hat. "I'm starting to take interest in who's this man is, We Jaegers we'll hunt him down for sure.
It's been almost a month since that incident with Night Raid. Ghost has been keeping a semi down low using the Jaegers in the Capital in a way to help take down some of his targets but a darker threat soon will come.
