Hey Guys and Girls! This is Kain Le' Noir! And I am super sorry about the long wait to make up for it I am going to release two chapters tomorrow! Thursday and Friday were filled with a head cold. Saturday was Prom. And Sunday was Mothers Day here in the USA... So no time for writing. Blargh. Anyway super sorry about that again. SO. I am glad to say that you guys loved the last chapter. Brain Freeze has now broken 400 views! YAY! To celebrate I might make a Mochaccino/ Gelato one shot so let me know if you guys want it. Thanks to all you amazing people and now sit back, relax, and grab your ice cream scoop, because here comes Brain Freeze!
"Now. Where were we?" I asked the shopkeeper as Fenrir and Grey came out of the backroom. I looked them over. "Boys. Go check on our uninvited guests and make them comfortable in the nearest alley if you would be so kind." I said giving a kind smile to the elderly man. The boys split up slowly going through the clothing of the unconscious men taking Lien, credit cards, weapons, jewelry, ammo, and Scrolls. As Fenrir moved to go outside one of the men stood up and aimed his machine gun wildly around to point at me. Before he could fire a shot, Fenrir rushed forward and ripped the man's throat out with his teeth. The thug gave a bloody gurgle before collapsing to the ground. Fenrir spit the chunk of meat in his mouth onto it's former owner.
"Thank you Fen!" I called. I turned back to the shopkeeper, who had for some reason gone quite pale. "Bodyguards am I right?" I joked. The poor man passed out. Fenrir spat.
"Ugh. He tasted awful." He groaned. I glared over at him.
"Well, then next time, don't freaking eat him! Ugh. It doesn't matter. Don't kill the rest. Just throw them into the alley over there!" I ordered. I glanced over their outfits. "Curiouser and curiouser." I said looking them over. Their outfits looked really familiar. I pulled the collar down on one of the thugs shirts. There on his neck was a red tattoo in the shape of a stuffed bear. I groaned, loudly. "Shit! These are Juniors boys." I called out. Fenrir and Grey groaned. "C'mon guys. Just grab the Dust and then we'll return them to their boss. Heck maybe he'll even pay us for the service?" I laughed.
Grey and Fenrir shared a look. "Sure." they said in unison. "When Boarbatusk fly." Fenrir muttered. A while later I was sitting on the counter counting out the Lien from the shopkeeper's safe and cash register. I looked down at the unconscious man. "Good week, huh?" There was quite a bit. I left half of it. "There that should pay for the window and your next shipment of Dust. Sorry about the hassle old timer." I muttered, patting the man on the head. Good thing Roman had left so quick. He had left all the Dust containers. Which made my night so much easier.
"Alright boys lets get over to Junior's! We've got some things to sell!" I called out. Fenrir and Grey picked up the unconscious thugs and slung them over their shoulder and grabbed the Dust containers. I personally carried a load of powdered Dust and Dust crystals in my satchel. I pulled out my Scroll and dialed Darren's number. His Scroll instantly answered.
"Shit! He's coming! Open the door! Open the door! OPEN THE DO-AAAAAAAAAAAAAA HHHHHHHHHH!" A voice screamed. I chuckled. Somebody had gotten on my BF's bad side. I heard a metal door screech as it was smashed apart and some more screaming. Then Darren's voice.
"Alright! Now we can talk business!" He roared. I coughed. Darren grumbled. "Shit. Look what you made me do!" I heard him mutter, probably at whoever had been screaming. I heard some ruffled fabric sounds and then a small click as his ear touched the Scroll.
"Hey, Mocha! What's up?" He asked innocently. I giggled.
"Not much. A couple of Juniors men got in the way, so we are heading over to his club to drop them off. I might sell him some of the powder Dust. We really just need the Dust rounds. Is that okay?" I asked, sweetly.
"Yeah that's fine. But only sell him the low grade. If tonight goes well we can start making our own Dust rounds from the high grade. And then we won't have many issues." He said.
"Mmmhmm. Soooooo. How is the weapons collection coming along?" I asked.
"Uuuuhhh. Not very well. SOME PEOPLE, are being very interruptive!" He said, the exclamation clearly aimed at the people he had cowering in front of him. I smirked.
"Alright. Just try not to burn the place down Rodan. We need a good supplier. Kill one to give a good clear message and leave the rest." I heard a loud squishy sound and then a lot more screaming.
"OK. Kill one. Check. Not burning down the place down. We'll see. Hold on. Somebody is trying to escape." Darren said. The sounds of flames transmitted over the speaker and then more screams.
"Darren! I said one dead guy! One!" I cried, agitated. Darren chuckled.
"He's not dead. Just maimed. Plus! Silver lining, no blood!" He laughed. I shook my head.
"You're such a pyro." I sighed.
"Eh, you know you love me." Darren chuckled. I giggled.
"Yeah, I do! Make sure to get the weapons and not kill anybody important. Try to get back to Headquarters before the sun comes up. We have some business to attend to." I told him.
"Alright see you in a bit! Now where were we?" Darren said, hanging up.
"Alright boys! Let's get a move on! I'm on a schedule!" I called, after I hung up and put my Scroll in my pocket. Fenrir and Grey quietly picked up the pace. Ah, don't you just love the feel of loyalty in the night?
Nearly an hour later I stood in front of Juniors Club. I looked it over. Well looked it up would probably be better. What was with criminals and huge warehouses? It was weird though the place looked like it had just been attacked a couple weeks ago. The outside of the enormous building was in various states of repair and the entrance of the building was crawling in Junior's men.
I put my aviators on my head and strutted forward. Unexpectedly they let me through without a second glance.
"What the fuck?" I muttered to myself. Fenrir and Grey got held up a bit until I motioned that they were with me. I was beginning to have an idea about why I had been let in so easily and I wasn't pleased. I saw Junior and his...kids? Bodyguards? Escorts? Over by the bar and stalked over. The twin girls saw me and broke into smiles as they sauntered over.
"Neo! Welcome back! Any kind words of advice for us, Oh, master criminal?" The girl in white and blue quipped. I growled.
"Out of my was bitch." I snarled, smacking her out of my way with Eclipse. She went flying and slammed into a column. Her red clothed twin gasped and ran to help her twin.
"Melanie!" She cried. Geez. How did they run in those heels? I looked down at my own comfortable leather combat boots and smirked. The things girls do to look good. I will never understand normal girls. Oh well they're loss.
"Oh Junioooooor! Come out come out wherever you are!" I yelled into the crowded club. I guess Melanie got the word out because there was a severe lack of thugs trying to attack me. Suddenly the club attendees started running for the door, screaming. I looked around and I was completely surrounded by machine gun armed thugs. All aiming down their barrels at me.
"All this fuss for little ol' me? I'm flattered boys but honestly I just want to talk to your boss. It seems a few of his boys got into some trouble!" I gestured over my shoulder and several thugs as well as the three unconscious men from the Dust shop flew over my head to land in a pile nearby as Fenrir and Grey slammed through the circle to join me in the center of the dance floor.
I looked around, until my gaze finally settled on the DJ trying to hide his giant teddy bear helmet behind the stand.
"Yo! Disk Jockey! You got Three Days Grace?" I called. He peeked up from his stand and nodded. I smiled. "Great! Play Animal I Have Become! Or I will shoot you and put it on myself!" I yelled. He nodded vigorously before ducking down and quickly popping back up with a record. He quickly placed it on the deck and put the needle down.
That wicked bass came on and I started bopping my head to the beat, as a wild grin spread across my face.
"I can't escape this hell. So many times I've tried. But I'm still caged inside. Somebody get me through this nightmare. I can't control myself."
I sang quietly along to the song. As the song entered the next verse I fired Eclipse using the shotgun blast to launch myself into the air landing on top of a thug and knocking him out. I let out a laugh.
"So what if you can see the darkest side of me? No one will ever change this animal I have become. Help me believe it's not the real me. Somebody help me tame this animal."
I sang as I opened the razor sharp blade-like parasol cloth of Eclipse and began spinning and swirling, cutting through metal and flesh as if they were paper. I left limbs and heads attached. I like Junior. Fingers and hands weren't as lucky.
"I can't escape myself. So many times I've lied. But there's still rage inside. Somebody get me through this nightmare. I can't control myself."
I sang along as I jumped, somersaulted, and twisted away from machetes, axes, gunfire.
"So what if you can see the darkest side of me? No one will ever change this animal I have become! Help me believe it's not the real me. Somebody get me tame this animal I have become. Help me believe it's not the real me. Somebody help me tame this animal."
Jumping off of a pillar I slammed into another thug. I stood up from his body and looked around. Still more thugs. Great. The song finally drawled out.
"Well can I talk to Junior now? I yelled at the assembled thugs.
"NEO! What the hell are you doing?! Who are these Faunus?!" A large man carrying a huge metal bat roared, as he stormed out of the crowd. "And why the hell can you ta-" He stopped as he actually looked me over. "Oh shit."
"Yeah. Oh shit buddy. Now number one. Here are your boys that Torchwick bought." I kicked one of the unconscious men nearby. "Number two. I've got some Dust to sell." I said throwing the satchel of Dust at his feet. "And number 3. Where is my sister?"
Yeah. So that happened. Yet another cliff hanger...Mwahahahahaha! I love you all and remember you can leave a review or PM me with any questions or advice. I would love to hear from you! Love yah and see you in Brain Freeze Chapter 8!
