Chapter 10: Christmas With Krampus-Part 5
(Opening A/N: Alright guys, one chapter left, and that's going to be the *season* finale, don't worry, this story is far from done, mark my words ladies and gentlemen, when general Hex and empress Jiulan are the last ones standing, then it'll be time for the final season! And right now, I need to get this done so I can work on another Black Lagoon project, I mean hands down, Black Lagoon is my alpha anime, and I'm a die hard fan of the series along with Akame Ga Kill. But enough chit-chat, LET'S GET IT ON!)
This time we were joined by Sawyer, Lotton, and ShenHua, who knows where Krampus is going to take us, I hope it's somewhere warm.
Luckily, my wish came true when we were sent to the warm area of San Francisco, California, but the houses were decked with lights and other Christmas decorations, and we were standing on the golden gate bridge, this was a spin off of one of my favorite video games, and I knew how to play it like the back of my hand.
Christmas With Krampus-Level 5: Start!
The bike from level two came back to us, and this meant that this was going to be a drive and there was a bright red pentagram in the sky, we needed to find out where the star is and how to stop it.
Akame and I got on the bike as all the others began to climb into vehicles as we began to speed through the streets of San Francisco, I then noticed that in the inside of my leather jacket, was a smartphone, and it seemed I could be able to hack things, but as we spoke, black sedans began to come out of the woodwork like cockroaches, as soon as I pulled out my phone, I had a picture of me and my adopted son Darron, Darron was an 8 year old African American boy who I adopted and had Revy down as a mother, I just hope she doesn't kill me, because I really love my son and I'd do anything to keep him safe.
(Daddy's going to be home soon kiddo, I promise.) I thought, and a single tear began to fall out of my right eye, I didn't want to die for the sake of my son, and I don't want him to live the life I'm living, the reason why I worked with O'Bannon was to support not only me, but also Darron.
"What's wrong?" Akame asked, and I slid the phone back into my jacket, I had to be honest with her.
"Akame, I have an adopted son, I've been doing some bad things like killing people in able to support both me and him, and I really don't want him to end up like me." I said, and Akame knew my dilemma since I'm a single dad trying to be the best dad for my son.
"What's your son's name?" Akame asked, and I replied her with this…
"Darron."
"I'm sure that you're doing you're best to support Darron and I can say that you will be able to see Darron again. I promise." Akame said, and I knew that for a fact, since I'm a dad, I just hope Revy doesn't plan on harming our son, since I stupidly put her down as the mother.
Just then my phone rang, and it turned out it was Darron calling, so I answered the call.
"Hello?" I asked, and there was the sound of my son on the other end…
"Daddy, is that you? Where are you?" Darron asked, and I had to tell him something to reassure the kid.
"Daddy's doing some business in Roanapur, and I'm going to see if I can talk to mommy about you without her flipping out at me, anyway, daddy's gotta go back to work." I said and Darron understood what was going on.
"Okay, bye daddy." Darron said as he hung up, this made me worry for my own safety, I mean if anything happened to me, then who'd take care of Darron?
But now was the time to keep my head on a swivel, we were coming up on an intersection and there were cars coming and this just gave me an idea, as soon as we passed through, I hacked the lights system using my phone and the cars began to go and the black sedans crashed into the regular cars, I flipped the bird at the sight of the accident but there were more cars coming.
I wonder if the Illuminati are watching us? I mean, I feel like they might have a hand in all of this, and I don't trust them, but I digress on the whole thing, beware of the Illuminati, for they may watch over you.
Then a succubus comes flying off of a building trying to take Akame off of the bike, but that's when I aimed the powerful handgun at her and placed a round through her neck making her crash to the ground with a powerful thud.
But little did we know, there was a black sedan behind us, and it looked like that it was going to ram us from behind, I jumped off the bike and pulled out the second handgun as I began to shoot for the fences killing the demons inside the car as it began to spin out of control and before long, it was spinning like a log in water.
The car then flew off the edge as I jumped off and another car followed by a big rig came out to play with us.
"Get up there and deal with that bastard!" The demon driver said, and one demon climbed out and got on top of the car, he had a Tommy gun with the intent to use the gun, but before he could shoot me with it, I kicked him right in the chest, sent the poor bastard flying into the big rig spiked grill and he exploded into a puddle of blood and gore.
"To you from me, gentlemen." I said as I pulled the pin on a grenade and tossed it, I then jumped over to the big rig watching out for the dangerous grill, as soon as I jumped, I managed to get onto the hood of the rig and the car in front exploded.
Fourth Wall break time!
Wait, did I leave the stove on? I can't remember, goddamn memberberries!
The driver then pulled out a hellish sawed off double barrel 12 gauge Remington shotgun he tried to shoot me, but I quickly did a backflip and dodged the buckshot that tried to hit me.
So I used my "Up yours" signal with the middle finger and it totally worked, the driver got totally pissed off.
He then climbed onto the truck with me, and I swore that I'd be there for my son, and I hope to god to see him become successful.
The driver then climbed on top of the trailer as we tried to balance ourselves, and the only question on my mind was, who's driving the truck?
Little did I know, the truck was being programmed and it was keeping us on the road.
The demon driver charged at me and I side stepped him, but I had to be careful, one false move and I'll be eating pavement, the driver spawned a fire axe as he tried to swing it at me, I sweep kicked his legs causing the axe to fly out of his hands and onto the pavement below.
"Reaper." I whispered as if I was the enchantress and I called out her name, my hair changed to white and my eyes changed to purple, this is known as the reaper persona.
Little did my enemy know, I had a badass looking scythe made of pure energy which is invisible to the naked eye, meaning you can't see it unless you have Reaper's sight, if you could be able to see it, then it would only signal the end for someone.
"What are you? Some kind of killer holding an imaginary weapon? Don't make me laugh." The Driver said, and this put a smile on my face, but it was the reaper who smiled.
"I'm known as the angel of death, and I'm here to claim yours." The reaper said in another worldly voice, the driver stupidly charged at me with sharp claws extracted, and the reaper sliced him in half with the scythe, the two halves of the demon driver fell onto the asphalt below as the reaper then climbed into the truck with the intent to drive the truck to where the pentagram was, but it turned out the truck locked itself up and it turned out it was a living breathing demon as well, no wonder this truck could be able to drive itself with the driver.
But the reaper sliced through the truck, the truck then exploded as Akame came under the reaper and landed right behind her, the reaper then pointed to the pentagram in the sky as a destination where the next boss was, Akame nodded as she knew that under the pentagram was where we needed to go next.
Another thing about the reaper, was it had a time frame of only five minutes per use and it can only be used three times within 24 hours.
It turned out the source of the pentagram was coming from a church, and there was a possessed priest.
The priest was tied up in chains and speaking in Latin, and this was going to be fun, it turned out that the priest was summoning a powerful demon to do Krampus' bidding, a giant pentagram like portal formed on the floor of the church.
Just then a giant clawed hand came out and grabbed the ground, then a giant hammer like weapon came out of the portal as well, the beast had brown fur, two giant horns, blood red pupiless eyes, and stood over 50 feet tall with a bunch of chains covering it's body along with a loincloth.
"Rawrrrrrrr!" The demon roared as it caused the church to be destroyed, so this was going to be the boss we needed to deal with? So be it.
I took back control of my body, and it seems that I have two more uses of my reaper persona left before I need to get it recharged, so I'm going to hold onto those uses as a trump card.
"Okay you cocksucking son of a bitch, let's dance." I said as I jumped off the bike and decided to take the fight to the demon one on one, it might look like a suicide mission, but I knew for a fact, where the demon's weakness was, the priest who was summoning it, so I pulled out a kunai with a crucifix attached to it, I tossed the kunai at the priest as a bright light began to come out of the stab wound, then more light came out of his eyes and mouth as he bent backwards and screamed in pain as the crucifix was doing it's job and killing the demon that laid within the unholy priest.
He then blew up into a pile of ash as the giant demon needed to be cut down in size next, this is going to be one hell of a ride here, so I pulled out the minigun and began to lay down some heavy fire, this was starting to shed splinters of the demon's health, I needed to find it's weak spot...then it hit me, the horns!
"Hey lard ass! Down here, you can't even hit the broadside of the barn with that hammer of yours!" I shouted as I pulled down my right lower eyelid, stuck my tongue out, and blew a raspberry.
The demon then swung the hammer at the buildings that I was standing in front of and the hammer destroyed them, but I jumped out of harm's way and I pulled down my pants mooning the demon, I also patted my ass getting the demon's attention.
"Really, that's so immature." Jesse said watching the whole fight unfold on top of a hill, and the demon tried to grab me but I jumped onto it's hand climbed up it's furry arm, just then, Demon's fang fell out of the sky and landed right into my right hand.
"Use me master, punish our enemies with your strength." The sword whispered, and I began to cut the horns off, the demon then dropped onto the ground dead, victory was ours, but the chains began to swirl around me as I was being sucked into the portal, Akame tried to save me, but it was no use.
"ROMAN!" Akame yelled, and I had this to say to her.
"Don't worry, I'll see you in the final level!" I shouted as I sank deeper into the portal.
I feel through the portal with the chains intact, as soon as the other end opened up, it turned into a dark room with chains dangling all around, then a chain wrapped around my neck knowing that there might be some bad news in the works…
Just then, Jiulan appeared as she walked up to me, and she grabbed the chain that was around my neck and she tightened it.
"You have something of mine, and I want it back." Jiulan said, she had murderous intent in her eyes.
"I don't have anything of yours bitch." I cursed and her grip on the chain tightened, and I was being cut off of a decent supply of oxygen.
"My daughter, Akame! I want her to pay for killing off her sister Kurome!" Jiulan said, this can't be happening, is Jiulan really Akame's mother? Why is she doing this?
"And what if I refuse?" I asked, and she stabs her nail right into my chest making me hurt so much.
"Then I'll kill all of which you hold dear, including my daughter, that bitch Revy, and I'll your son along with you last." Jiulan warned, nobody's going to harm my son, not as long as I have a breath in my lungs.
Jiulan then walked back into the darkness and she disappears, the chains then vanish and the wound that Jiulan inflicted, was still there and it still hurts, but now it was time for me to kill Krampus and end this game once and for all.
