Chapter 9
2 weeks has passed yet nothing; Silence only fell in the town with no sign of a single child playing on the streets.
"The towns' empty…" Moses muttered in sadness.
"Get your filthy hands off me!"
The bandit took another glimpse. He gotten use to those same high pitched cries of torn children yet this is different.
"J-Jay!?"
"Don't struggle, it's futile anyway." Penthesilea recommended.
Moses immediately knew it was Jay. The ninja was limp as 2 men roughly grasped each arm. He looked really weak with his head barely lifting. With those black eye bags, the bandit suspected the ninja is over worked.
"Hey, drop my lil' bro!"
"Oh, look, it's the bandit."
"What are ya doin'!?"
"Isn't it obvious? I'm taking him away." She smiled which angered him.
"I'm givin' ya 5 seconds to let Jay go."
Her allies see where this is going, a few rushed to her aid but she simply refused.
"I won't be needing any assistance. I can handle this one."
The kid clenched the ninja's black hair forcing his head to be lifted.
"You look tired; Let me guess…You're working your ass off just to obtain any data on us, correct?"
Jay glared weakly as the pain of her grip started to hurt his scalp.
"You mortals won't give up." She laughed at him.
"Stop that!"
Moses glared at her but that didn't change anything.
"How foolish they are…such futile efforts…"
The bandit was about to go berserk when suddenly a sharp pain pierced his left eye.
"Halt Penthesilea! I've tolerated enough of yer ignorance."
"How dare you insult me, bandit!" She turned to him yet her glare shattered with a single strike of his cold eye.
"Release him at once!" He commanded.
The brat was held back by his cold stare. This is unlike Moses…She released her grip on Jay's hair as she commanded.
"D-do what he says." Her voice trembled.
"Y-yes Mistress…"
The men released the ninja sending him to his knees. The bandit ran to his aid still putting a cold glare at the Moon trinity leader's sight.
"I have important matter to attend to." She left with her men.
"Are you guys alright? Aren't those people just terrible?"
A young boy approached them.
"I'm fine but my lil bro looks…huh?"
Moses saw the boy and somehow felt a little uneasy. He looked like a normal young 15 year old boy though his neon blue hair and his foggy green eyes did stand out.
"H-Have I seen ya somewhere before?"
"I believe not…If you don't mind we should take your little brother to the hospital."
"R-Right…"
The bandit carried the rather light ninja as the strange boy fallowed them. As they rushed to the hospital, the boy glared at Moses' back whispering to himself.
"Your senses are this strong and you're smarter than you look; I guess you're not normal to begin with…Just like the moon trinity leaders."
He grinned with mystic having plans of his own.
