Chapter 10
Revy stood her ground and notice that they had their killer instincts on. She grasp her cutlasses as she eyed both Akihiro and Roberta. "Finally caught up to you. Four eyes, wolf boy."
Akihiro looked at her then back at Roberta. "You know her?"
"We once faced each other before. The young master was kidnapped and taken to this city. I had a fist fight with her and ended in a draw." Roberta explained. "Do you know her?"
"Not exactly, just met in a bar and had a drink next to her first day I was here." He answered her not giving any emotion in his voice.
Rock steps in front of Revy. "Listen, You both don't have to do this. Roberta, Garchia is alright, he wants you back in Venezuela."
Roberta took this information in herself. She was in complete shock with this information as the guns in her hand started to tremble. "Master Garcia...he... wants...me back?..." She said in a whisper.
"That's right, he does want you to shed anymore blood, we're here to take you back." Rock informed her. "And Akihiro revenge will not bring Ginji back. He wouldn't want you to go on a rampage."
Hearing the name of his cousin, just got Akihiro suspicious as he aimed his M4. "I didn't even tell you why I'm here. What do you know about Ginji!? Are you working for Balalaika!?"
'Crap that's right, he doesn't know the actual truth. I have to approach this thing carefully.' Rock though. Before he was about to speak Revy walked up in front of the two.
"You know, you're nothing like Jumbo, you got more skill then him." She gave off a sadistic grin. Akihiro still had a serious face on, but could tell that he looked confused. "I'm talking about your cousin, that's right wolf boy, I killed him."
Everyone now looked at Revy. Some with shock others with stupidity. But Akihiro, his was with anger. "Good, this this make things easier. I'll kill you and the russians." Dropping his M4A1 and dragnov to the ground and pulled out his 1911 Shogun while his katana was still drawn.
"Let's do the cha cha baby." Revy grinned as she reloaded her cutlasses and began to fire. Akihiro dodge the bullets with his speed and also began to fire his gun. Revy dodge to the left while firing again.
Akihiro avoided the bullets as well as cut them in half as he charges her. He swung his katana at her but only got a piece of her bangs as she stumbled back a few feet. But this didn't get to Revy, she just grinned as she reloaded her cutlass.
"I have to admit kid,your one hell of a fighter."
"I have to agree, your not too bad yourself. Too bad you will have to die."
"Don't bet on it!" firing her cutlasses ands he shot with his shogun.
While the two of them were at each other, Shenhua, Sawyer, Lotton. didn't know if they should pitch in or now.
"Damn Twinkie is having good fight, I want in." Shenhua about to step in ready to join Revy, but as she stepped forward, a bullet came close to her feet and she stumbled back.
"This is their fight." Roberta gave off a warning while aiming her twin colts at her.
"Very well maid, we here to bring you back anyway. We just have to rough you up a bit is all." Shenhua tossing her kukri knife at her. However Roberta tilted her head back slightly just to dodge the up coming attack. "Not bad maid, but can you dodge this!" Charging after her, with both kukri knives coming down on to her.
Roberta used the top of her pistols to block off the attack and slammed them with full strength, shattering Shenhua's knives into tiny pieces.
Shenhua looked in utter shock of how her precious kukri knives are reduced to nothing. She began to back away from Roberta that for the first time in so many, she was scared.
"Shenhua... duck." Sawyer said from behind her. Shenhua did as she was told and duck down as Sawyer ready her chainsaw and swing it at Roberta, however Roberta leaned back all the way up to the point where her hands were touching the ground and sent a powerful kick onto Sawyers hands, making the chainsaw she was holding fly up to above then a few feet.
Roberta then did a back flip a few feet away from Sawyer. She put her colts back into their holsters and as the Chainsaw fell, she was able to grab it by the handle and pointed it at Sawyer. She gave off a sadistic grin. "So you like cutting people up huh? I wonder how well you would be grinded up?" Getting closer to Sawyer as she backs up in fear.
"Wait." Lotton walks up to Roberta with his Schnellfeuer in hand. "I will not let you harm anyone of my friends friend, for now you will face me the wizard. So-" before he could continue with his speech, Roberta was able to kick him in the nuts so hard that he fell to the ground.
"Too easy." Roberta said in disappointment that she turned off the chainsaw, removes it's chains, dropping it to the ground. She looked over to the battle that was still going on with Revy and Akihiro.
"Why the Fuck won't you just die!" Revy getting frustrated as she continues to shoot at him.
"I was going to say the same for you!" Akihiro countered as he began to slash the bullets.
The battle between the both of them was really getting tense. As magazines were being emptied and bullets covered the ground. Revy tried shooting him but he kept dodging.
Akihiro shoot his Shogun as he inched up to Revy. Then he took a vertical slash, making revy bring her cutlasses to block the attack but got him enough room to give her a clear shot. Seeing this she kicked him hard in them stomach which made him double back a few inches but was still able to take the shot.
BANG!
Revy's eyes widened, as well as Akihiro, as Rock was in front of Revy, with a wound on the his lower left side. "I don't want you walking the same path..." He said before he fell backwards about to hit the ground.
"Rock!" Revy shouted running up to him as she catches him in her arms. "You fucking idiot! Why did you get in the way!" Shaking him. "Come on speak to me!" She then turned away for her unconscious partner and stared at the one who shoot him with both horror and rage. "You Mother Fucker!" Revy ran at him with full speed wanting to beat the living shit out of him. However that was soon interrupted by Roberta getting in the back of her and pinning her down chest flat to the ground. "Get the Fuck off me you damn maid, he dead, YOU HEAR ME! HE'S FUCKING DEAD!"
"Look at him." Roberta ordered her as she was still struggling. "LOOK AT HIM!" Much louder than before this time getting Revy's attention.
Revy looked at wolf boy. But he didn't look glad, he actually looks shocked and upset. Akihiro just looked at Rock struggling to keep alive. "He protected her..." he said barely a whisper. "He protected her...just like old man Ryuzo."
It was three years ago. The Kosa Council and the Washime Group was having a turf war. As Ryuzo, Bando, Yoshida, Ginji, Akihiro and many others were fighting. The Kosa had a lot more men but the Washime were no pushovers Akihiro and Ginji cut their enemies with their master sword skill. Blood being spilt and organs laying the allies felt good to them both. 'It's this the best they got? I can walk circles around these guys!' He though to himself as he cut off the limbs of his victims as well as shoots them with his pistol. As he was killing, one of the Kosa men had a perfect aim for him.
"Akihiro watch out!" Ryuzo can running towards him getting in front of him
BANG!
Ryuzo fell to the ground with blood coming out of his chest and mouth. "Boss!" Akihiro yelled with both sadness and rage as he shoot the bosses attacker and kneeling at the boss applying pressure on his wound. "Boss, why did you take the hit for me? Your life is more important then mine."
"Akihiro, you're still young, I want you to have a good life, meet a nice girl, get married have kids of your own." Ryuzo said weakly.
"You shouldn't talk, we have to get you to a hospital." Akihiro applying more pressure on the wound.
"No need...Akihiro... pass down this message for me... please." Ryuzo said weakly. "The rest of you can take action for whatever you chose but, don't let Yukio get involve." He said as he stopped breathing.
"Boss? Boss!?" Akihiro shaking him. "Boss you can't die, your all we have! Come on, open your eyes!
After that day, everyone was gather to the Ryuzo Washime's funeral as they pay their respects to their boss. After the funeral, both Ginji and Akihiro were standing along near the porch looking outside.
"It's all my fault, I was too careless." Akihiro said as he slammed his fist to the ground.
"You shouldn't beat yourself up, it was hard on all of us. plus it was my fault for not being their to have your back." Ginji looking away as he felt guilty. "Anyway I'm leaving the group."
This made Akihiro look back at him. "What? Ginji why?"
"I'm not actually leaving the group, I'm still going to live in this household, I'm going to sheath my sword and watch over Yukio for the boss, it's what he wanted.
"Yeah, actually Ginji, I'm going back to Kyoto." Akihiro standing up. "I already made up my mine, so don't try to stop me."
"May I ask why you're leaving?"
"It's something the boss told me on his dying breath. I'm still young, wants me to have a good life so I'm taking his advice." He said walking out from the porch, stopping on a foot away from the house without turning back. "Oh and don't die, I want to have a dual someday." Continuing to the streets.
Akihiro started walking to Rock who was clenching his own wound, trying to stay alive.
Rock looked at him with knowing eyes. "So it's come to this." He said smirking.
Akihiro knelt down next to him and helped apply pressure with his wound. "You're lucky it's nothing serious."
"Yeah." Rock smirked.
Roberta let go of Revy as she ran up to Rock. "Rock!" Coming towards him. "You dumb ass did you know what would happen!?" Hitting him right in the head real hard.
"Gee can you be a little gentle." Wincing in pain.
"Sorry, no can do. Now hold still while I get this bullet out of you. Hey Foureye, got a knife on you." Turning to Roberta.
"What do you take me for, an idiot." She said holding out her spiked knuckled knife and handing it to Revy.
"Thanks." She said putting the knife into his wound as he screamed and winced. "Hold the fuck still or else I'm gonna put another bullet in you!"
After a few minutes she was able to get the bullet out of him was able to make a makeshift bandage out of the dead russians clothing that surrounded them.
"Can you stand?" Akihiro asked him as he held out his hand.
"Yeah, thanks" Rock answered as he took his hand and lifted himself up.
"Alright, before everything gets all sappy." Revy said about to like a cigarette. "We're here to bring the maid back to his master, So what about maid, you coming back?" Revy turned to Roberta.
"Yes, but on one condition." Roberta said walking along side Akihiro and putting an arm around his. "He come's with me."
Both Rock and Revy looked at eachother then back at Roberta and Akihiro. "Why?" Revy asked.
"We're an item." Roberta answered.
There was a long awkward silents for a whole minute until Revy bursted out laughing. "Wait hold up, you two are fucking eachother? Man I knew you two fight like rabid dogs but fucking like dogs?! This is too rich!"
Both Roberta and Akihiro stood there in silents with a bit of annoyance. But the silents was broken gun fire that was shooting at them.
"Dammit they never quit." Akihiro cursed under his breath as he took cover and fired back.
"Sis is really getting off my nerves. Oh well screw her, if she sees me as an enemy then, I'll be happy to fight her." Revy shooting her cutlass in one hand and carrying Rock around her shoulder.
"This suck so much." Shenhua yelled while taking cover followed by Sawyer and Lotton. "We have maid now, we go now."
"Not gonna happen." Akihiro said while shooting. "Once we leave, the russians will just hunt everyone of us down and kill us. And besides, I started this whole mess, might as well end it.
"I hate to say it, but wolf boy is right." Revy shrugged while firing back. "Well since we're here might as well help. Come on I'll lead you the way." She said taking a route while Rock still lean on her.
"Right behind you." Akihiro said shooting while following Revy.
"We still get paied right?" Shenhua ducking for cover. As Roberta was covering for everyone. "Bitch, you own me new blades." She said to her and followed right behind.
After some crazy twist and turns, along with some killings, they finally made it to Hotel Moscow main building.
"There we brought you here, now do me a favor and don't fucking die." Revy spat. "Cause it would be a real shame if you did."
"I plain not to." Akihiro walking into the building.
"Wait." Lotton said while made the Wolf of Kyoto stop and turn around. Lotton took out a pair of said's out of his pocket and tossed them at him. "Can't make a cool entrance without a pair."
Everyone around made a dull face expect for Akihiro who just gave off a amused smirk. "Can't argue there." putting on the shades and entering with Roberta right behind him. 'Bando, Yoshida, Ginji, Yukio, everyone. I hope I won't be joining you guys anytime soon, but I do know on thing. I won't let your names die in vain, once this is over I'll leave my mark here as the Washimes own wolf scared Hotel Moscow.'
