And the gang's reaction to meeting Blackhawk for the first time!
Chapter 11: This is Blackhawk?
Everyone was completely stunned by the fact that this is Blackhawk; an angry black tiger who's an actual teenager with an adult sized killer reputation and that puzzled everyone when the killer is actually a teenager and Musaki was confused wondering if this is for real and he asked, "You're Blackhawk?"
"That's right." Blackhawk replied, in a cold tone.
Musaki looked at Danzig and Razu and they were shocked to find that it's a teenage killer and he said, "Somehow I thought for sure he'd be much older."
"So did we. I had no idea that it's a kid this whole time." Bazu replied.
"You mean...we're supposed to be threatened by a teenager who assassins people?" asked Tigress, also in disbelief.
Blackhawk chucks a sword out of him and throws it at Tigress, but ultimately nearly landed on a tree that's inches from her head and the black tiger growls at her and responded, "You could be my next victim if you keep flipping your big mouth, you son of a bitch!"
That was pretty much enough to set her off and wanted to kill him herself, but Musaki, Mako and Po held her back from causing a scene to end that mission before it even begins and Musaki restrains her and said, "Not worth it! Not worth it!"
Blackhawk smirks at her and couldn't believe that they're the same species, but in different stripes and he said, "Think I'm supposed to be scared of you because you're a big kung-fu master? I can take you down faster than I can splice someone's fat head off."
"Not only dangerous, but rude and obnoxious too." Arizona commented.
Tigress eventually calmed herself down, but she remained furious at Blackhawk for calling her the 'B' word straight to her face and she said, "Now...you're not here to call me out, are ya?"
"Screw that! I'm here for this guy...the one who murdered my parents." Blackhawk said, pointing at Musaki.
Musaki was disturbed that he'd be accused of something that he had no clue about or any knowledge of it in whatsoever way and he said, "What?! Why would I do something like that?"
"Shut up! Just answer my question...why did you do that to my parents, you murderer?!" Blackhawk yelled, sticking a sword close to Musaki's neck.
"Hold up! What makes you think that I'm capable of doing stuff like that?" asked Musaki, obviously upset.
"You killed them when I was a cub. I want you to feel the same pain that I felt all those years ago." Blackhawk snarled.
Mako seemed completely upset and lost as to how this is possible and he said, "Young man...this is just all a big misunderstanding. My nephew would never kill anyone or anything."
"How would you know that?!" Blackhawk snarled.
"How many years was that?" asked Mako.
"14 years ago...back when I was three." Blackhawk replied, in a completely angry tone.
Suddenly...there was a huge click into Musaki's head that the killer lost his parents when he was three and he slowly looked at Blackhawk and asked, "How old?"
"Three years old! Does that even mean anything to you?!" Blackhawk snarled.
"How old are you now?" asked Musaki.
"17. Now that I found you, I want to avenge my parents by finishing your life...and your evil clan." Blackhawk growled, right before he was gonna stick a sword to Musaki's stomach.
"Evil clan? Can you tell me what this is all about first? I didn't quite get the memo." Musaki said, remaining calm.
Blackhawk suddenly realized that Musaki had no idea or knowledge about what he's talking about other than what his purpose is so he placed the sword back in his sack and as Musaki got up, Blackhawk asked, "You have no idea why I know your family, do ya?"
"Not a clue. But can you please tell me why you're doing this?" asked Musaki.
"Yeah...we do deserve a little explanation." Mantis chimed in.
"You really wanna know? I'll tell you...when I was three, my parents were killed...slaughtered and left to die. I didn't know who killed them, but what I really wanted to know was why them? Why did they have to leave me on this earth? My master told me that it was all because of you Bushido-Akio's responsible for this and that you're nothing but cold-blooded killers like everyone else in this earth." Blackhawk replied.
As Musaki got his answer, he kinda had a feeling that this kid is holding some personal hatred for the entire clan and wants nothing more than revenge to avenge his parents' death and he said, "That's not true. Whatever master told you that is lying."
"My master is not a liar! Don't you ever call him that!" Blackhawk shouted, in intense anger.
Musaki could tell that this killer has a very short temper and huge intensity levels and he calmly said, "Chill out, dude. I'm just pointing out that we're not the type of people that would do that...especially to someone's family."
"I'm not believing anything you say. It's all full of lies." Blackhawk snarled.
"If there's one thing these guys don't do, it's lie and kill. We know this family well and we know they're not capabale of doing stuff like that." Daisuke reasoned.
Blackhawk didn't want to listen to this because he still holds that hatred and he said, "Enough! I was sent by my master to come at you, but since there's so many of you...I'll take you to them myself. So consider yourselves lucky that I'm not out to kill you...yet."
The Five were totally appalled to hear that this killer was sent by his master to bring the Bushido-Akio's over and Tigress came up to Blackhawk and said, "That will never happen."
"This doesn't really involve you...so you just shut up." Blackhawk growled, getting at her face.
Tigress immediately grabbed him by the wrist, flipped him down and kicked him in the stomach and he got slammed to a tree, but Blackhawk was willing to fight back as he punched, kicked and clawed Tigress around and a full-on fight ensues and Musaki knew this was gonna go nowhere if this keeps going and he stomped his foot...in which causes a chain reaction between the two of them as the ground crumbles to where they're fighting at and that obviously gained their attention.
"Seriously?!" Blackhawk roared.
"What was that for?!" Tigress snarled.
Musaki gave them a very serious yet scary glare that consisted of switching from blue to pitch black in a second and he said, "We're gonna take up that offer Blackhawk said."
"What?!" the masters asked.
"Are you serious, Musaki?! Why would you want to do that?" asked Viper.
Musaki lets out a deep sigh, turned to the others and said, "To get our names cleared. We need to get to the bottom of this alleged accusation this guy brought us and figure out who's telling the truth and who's lying."
"Saki's got a point. Maybe there's something more to this." Samurai agreed.
Most of the masters were against that idea because they fear that Musaki will be killed along with the rest of the clan, but they knew Musaki would never be capabale of taking someone's life away and that they're being accused of something they know nothing about and they want their names to be cleared and in this point, Tigress lets out a sigh and said, "Fine. We'll go with this killer."
"Anything to prove your innocence." Po stated.
Blackhawk lead the charge as everyone else follows him and he said, "If you try anything funny, I'll personally beat the crap out of you."
Musaki thought to himself, 'There's something about this whole thing that doesn't make a bit of sense and I'm gonna find out why.'
Sounds like Musaki's gonna get to the bottom of this. I know some of you guys are thinking why would Musaki take that risk? Well...you'll have to Musaki yourself.
