(A/N) I wonder if anyone will figure out which chapter in the manga inspired this chapter.
Also things are going to get intense around the latter half of this chapter so this is a fair discretion warning. I know this story is rated M but it might make some people feel uncomfortable so I wanted to give a fair warning. I will explain why in the Author's note at the end of this chapter.
Chapter 12 kill the enthusiasts
(Night Raid's Hideout)
It has been over an hour since the members of Night Raid had celebrated Tatsumi's return from General Esdeath. Though before the celebrations Janey had woken up and found herself outside of the hideout looking up at the sky. She is happy that she is with some nice people and she is grateful for all of the kindness that people has given her. But she still misses her parents and though she doesn't show it she still wonders about what will happen later. Her other relatives have died due to a danger beast attack and she is still terrified of the soldier within the Capital. She knows that Raiden did the best he can to protect her family but she hopes that he doesn't suffer because of her.
"I'm surprised to see you out here Janey." A female voice had said
"Hello . . . Mine was it?" Janey had said
"Yep you got my name right. So what are you doing out here so late at night? Aren't you normally asleep by now." Mine had asked Janey
"Yes but I'm thinking about my mom and dad. I'm grateful for what all of you have done for me but it's still hard to deal with my parents being gone." Janey had told mine
"I heard about what happened and I know it's not easy to deal with. When I was much younger I had dealt with a lot of hardships myself so I have a good idea of how you feel. I heard that you have been helping out around here but your gonna have to learn to defend yourself at some point. Since your caretaker can't be around forever." Mine had told Janey
"Well in that case what do you have in mind?" Janey had asked Mine
"Well you need to be able to fight for starters then after that you can learn how to use weapons." Mine had told Janey
"Well do you think Jack can teach me something about fighting?" Janey had asked
"Sure I can then I can teach you how to use a weapon but we're going to have speak to Jack about this." Mine had responded
"I haven't seen Jack around lately do you know where he is?" Janey had asked with a concerned look on her face
"He said that he's going to be hunting some bounty and it might take him a while so I don't know when he'll be back." Mine had told Janey before bringing her back inside the hideout so she can get some sleep.
(Jaeger's Meeting Room)
"Are you certain that Dr. Stylish is dead Vamp?" General Esdeath had asked while the rest of the Jeagers are in the room
"Yes General Esdeath I am sure I even brought back the teigu that one of his soldiers has used to prove it." Vamp had said before presenting Extase
"No first my Captain and now the Doctor. That monster Raiden will pay dearly for this I'll see to it myself." Seryu had said doing her best to hold back her tears
"It appears that while the Doctor was pursuing Tatsumi he had crossed Raiden's path and decided to fight him. Unfortunately, he had underestimated Raiden and paid the price for it dearly." Run had explained roughly summarizing the scenario of Dr. Stylish's death
"My deepest apologies General Esdeath I had saw the fight from a distance and I made pursuit. If I was faster, I could have prevented the death of the Doctor." Vamp had said to Esdeath
"Do not claim fault for Dr. Stylish's death Vamp. He had taken the initiative on his own without consulting anyone and had paid the price for it because he was weak. If anything it was fortunate of you to find him when you did so we will have a piece of mind in regards to his fate. Still I'm surprised that you were able to fight Raiden as easily as you did." General Esdeath had said giving praise to Vamp
"As I had said I fought Raiden before so I know how he fights General. Though he has gotten stronger my newfound abilities had caught him off guard. Though I must be prepared for next time. Raiden will most likely get stronger and I must be prepared for it." Vamp had briefly explained to General Esdeath
(The Back of the Danger Beast)
"So your telling me that Vamp has died before and then all of a sudden he came back to life without you knowing about it? Though before that you had arrived here but have no memory of how you got here. Not to mention that you come from a nation called the United States that has advanced machinery. The both of you are sounding more like teigu's by the second with altered memories." The female had said
"I know it's hard to believe but that is the truth. I guess my memory loss hangover is stronger than I thought." Raiden had said to the female
"Yet you still remember how to fight and a lot of stuff that has happened in your nation." The female had said sounding more suspicious
"You seem very suspicious of me uh . . . you know I never did get your name nor of the guy who helped me with Vamp." Raiden had said realizing what he didn't know
"Oh my bad Raiden so much has happened I didn't get the chance to introduce you to them. The guy with the blue hair and horn is named Susanoo and the one with headphones is named Chelsea." Najenda had explained to Raiden
"It is nice to meet you Raiden." Susanoo had said giving Raiden a hand wave
"It is nice to meet you as well but you still haven't answered my questions." Chelsea had stated plainly
"Well Chelsea I can't really control how my memories work when I get drunk. All I know is that I had gotten into a fight and end up here." Raiden had said before noticing the hideout
"Look it's the hideout I'll meet all of you guys there." Raiden had said before jumping off the manta ray danger beast and landing near the entrance
"You can't honestly believe everything he's telling you." Chelsea had said to Najenda who is currently deep in thought about what she asked Raiden
After Raiden had landed near the entrance of the hideout he had decided to proceed inside. Though as he was about to go inside he had saw a figure leaving the hideout herself. When Raiden had gotten a better look he had recognized her as Leone. When Raiden had decided to approach her he had noticed that she was slightly drunk and realized that Leone was drinking earlier.
"Oh hey Raiden I didn't expect to see you back so soon." Leone had said in a slightly drunken tone
"I'm glad to see your taking me and Tatsumi's being missing rather well." Raiden had said sarcastically to Leone
"Huh I was celebrating Tatsumi coming back to us. Though now I have a reason to celebrate even more since your back with us Raiden." Leone had said excitedly
"Wait Tatsumi's back with us Leone?" Raiden had asked
"Yep he had managed to escape Esdeath and returned a while ago. Wait how were you able to escape from Budo Raiden?" Leone had asked slightly more sober
"It looks like I have a few things to tell all of you." Raiden had said before going inside with Leone
(Moments Later in Night Raid's Hideout)
"So that's what happened to me before I had arrived here." Raiden had said after explaining to everyone what has happened after he had arrived at Budo's and bringing in Dr. Stylish's teigu
"Wow I heard how strong Budo is but to destroy the entrance of a base with ease its insane. Not to mention he has teigu users among him which just makes matters worst." Lubbock had said
"The good news is that they aren't worried about us so that gives us some breathing room. Not to mention that from what you all have told me of General Esdeath force's then it was good timing that I killed that freakish Doctor. Though it is unfortunate that girl with the strange pet is part of her squad I doubt she'll be a big problem for us. The real threat honestly is with Vamp and Esdeath. For Vamp I knew he had gotten stronger from what I was told but I apparently underestimated him. If it wasn't for some help, then I would've been hurt badly. I can still beat him he just got some lucky hits in that's all." Raiden had explained to everyone
"Glad to see that you're not short on confidence Raiden. Though you have to admit you need to learn how to use that teigu you've recently gotten if your gonna do better next time." Mine had said to Raiden
"I know I have to learn how to use my teigu but I hope it doesn't take too long." Raiden had said
"Then it's a good thing that we'll be intensifying our training from this point on." Najenda had said as she had arrived inside the hideout followed by Chelsea and Susanoo
"Hey boss what took you so long to get here?" Raiden had asked Najenda
"I was scouting the area to see if we were pursued by any of General Esdeath's forces. Though it looks clear at the moment all of us are going to have to change the location of our hideout. After Vamp gives a report of what happened to Esdeath then there is a chance that some soldiers will be sent to investigate the trail and eventually they will be led here. Not to mention that we need a new base of operations that will allow us to be closer to the Capital and also gives us better opportunities for training." Najenda had explained
"Before we continue who are the two people behind you boss?" Leone had asked looking at the two people behind her
"Oh I almost forgot these two are the newest members to Night Raid Chelsea and Susanoo. Raiden has already met these two earlier so it is only fair that all of you are introduced to them as well." Najenda had said to everyone
"Hello everyone as Najenda had said my name is Susanoo and I am an artificial teigu. It is a pleasure to meet all of you." Susanoo had said in a kind and pleasant tone that pleased everyone
"My name is Chelsea everyone and I hope that we can all work well together." Chelsea had said while eating her candy
"Nice to meet you Chelsea my name is Tatsumi." Tatsumi had said waving at the girl
"Do you know how wonderful your hair looks and feels Akame? I know that we'll be good friends as fellow killers." Chelsea had said to Akame while stroking her hair
"She has an eccentric attitude doesn't she?' Lubbock had asked Mine
"Yeah she does." Mine had responded agreeing with Lubbock
"Hey guys did anything happen with Janey while I was gone?" Raiden had asked
"Nothing major happened Raiden with the kid while you were gone Raiden. However, we have to talk about something involving her. I know that you're doing the best you can but you need to tell her the nature of our work and she also has to learn how to defend herself." Mine had stated to Raiden
"Wait you have a kid among assassins Raiden? Why if I didn't know any better it's like you want me to call you an idiot." Chelsea had said nonchalantly while sucking on her candy
"If I didn't know any better I'd say it's like your trying to piss me off." Raiden had responded with sarcasm
"While Chelsea is a tad blunt with her words she does have a point Raiden. Once we leave here there is no way we can keep a secret of our activities from Janey and eventually she'll figure out the nature of our work if she hasn't already done so." Najenda had explained to Raiden
"I know and it looks like I'm going to have to tell her soon but give me a chance to tell her before the move." Raiden had said
"I doubt we'll have that much time to prepare and the location I picked out for us is going to be filled with powerful Danger Beast. I wouldn't feel comfortable having a kid with us until we have proper shelter but that may take too much time to prepare. Do you think you can take her to the Capital for a few days?" Najenda had asked
"I have no problem helping with the shelter set up boss." Raiden had said to Najenda
"I know you don't mind helping us set up. But the Danger Beast we rode on can only carry so many people and I want to save the repeated trip as much as possible. Though if your still concerned about us needing help setting up then you'll be in for a surprise soon." Najenda had clarified to Raiden
"You know I doubt you'll run into any trouble as long as you don't do anything stupid and stand out. If you keep her hidden in a hotel that hasn't seen any trouble, then it should be fine for Janey. Not to mention that this will be a good chance for you to learn more about her." Leone had suggested
"Besides this is a good chance for you to take care of some targets on your list. Do you have any more people left Raiden?" Lubbock had asked
"Well there is someone named Bach the details are sketchy so it's going to take time for me to investigate. During that time, I'll explain things to Janey I won't tell her everything but just enough so she'll have a good idea of the situation." Raiden had explained to Najenda
"Very well then we'll start getting things ready tomorrow though before you leave I'll give you a map that shows the coordinates of where we will be. So you should be able to track us down the trip may take a few days so get as much rest and training as you can Raiden." Najenda had advised Raiden
"No problem boss we'll leave first thing in the morning." Raiden had clarified to Najenda
"Wait what about training Janey she has to learn how to defend herself?" Mine had stated to Raiden
"You have a point Mine but I don't want her doing any assassin work. Self-defense I understand but trained to kill as a child I'm against it." Raiden had stated to Mine thought Akame did notice a small yet strong reaction from Raiden at the mention of a kid being trained to kill. It is something Akame made a mental note on to follow up with.
"Don't worry Raiden we will only give her some self-defense training but we'll proceed with it once you get back." Najenda had said to Raiden
(The Capital)
It is a great understatement to say that it was awkward for Raiden to tell Janey that both of them will be returning to the Capital. To add to the awkwardness Raiden also had to tell her that they will be staying at the Capital for a few days with the explanation that everyone is moving and he is getting some supplies to help them settle in. Raiden Also told her that he has some personal business to take care of but assured her that she will be safe since the place she will be at will likely be populated and she won't get attacked during the day.
"Hey Janey I've been meaning to ask for a while but do you have any relatives?" Raiden had asked her with some concern in his voice
"My grandparents have died because of a Danger Beast attack a few years ago. I don't recall having any other family aside from my parents and grandparents. Why are you asking me these questions Jack?" Janey had asked
"No reason I was just curious about it that's all. Listen there is something I need to tell you but I will do it in a few days. Will that be alright with you Janey?" Raiden had asked after realizing that she has nobody to go to.
"Jack will your errand take a while? I don't want to be here at the Capital for too long." Janey had said with a worried look on her face
"Don't worry things will only take a few days at most and even then I will be with you at night and protect you. I doubt those guards will try anything insane during the day but just to be safe let me give you something." Raiden had said to Janey before handing her a small knife
"What I gave you is a hunting knife Janey. Hopefully you shouldn't end up using it but if something happens and I'm not around. Then use the knife to defend yourself but ONLY if you have to understand." Raiden had briefly explained to Janey with her nodding showing she understands what he's saying
A few minutes after Raiden and Janey had entered the Capital there are two individuals who spotted them while one of them had his eyes on Janey. The two strangers had an appearance that had allowed them to stand out from among the crowd. One of them has a ponytail and is wearing clothes that is similar to a samurai. But what made him stand out even more is that his eyes are closed. The other individual is an obese man with dark skin who has the appearance of a clown.
"Kōsetsu hungers for blood yet I am unable to feed it. Forgive me Kōsetsu but please wait a bit longer." The ponytail man had said
"Oooh l see a wonderful little child and she's a red head as well. I haven't had those in a long while. I must have her now I can't wait any longer." The obese man had said
"Champ must you indulge your desires so easily?" The ponytail man had said to his companion
"Come on Izou you know I can't help myself around adorable children. There very purity appeals to me and it is my duty to maintain that purity. Though it has been too long since I have seen a redhead. That look in her eyes shows that she has endured hardships and I must maintain her purity before it is lost forever." Champ had responded
"Well it will be a good deal of time before the others get back so you can indulge yourself. However, you must do it without drawing too much attention to yourself so I will help you. After all this will be a good chance to feed Kōsetsu." Izou had explained
(The Streets of the Capital)
Raiden had spent more time than he originally wanted looking for a hotel. However, he needed to make sure it was in a location that is populated with enough people that nobody would try anything with so many people around and in broad daylight. Once Raiden had found a place he had made sure that Janey knows to stay in her room at all times.
After making sure that Janey is secured and also instructing the Hotel manager not to let anyone go to her room unless it is him. Raiden had set off on his mission to kill his next target on Ozun's list. After getting into an alley where nobody was around Raiden had deactivated his disguise and decided to travel around the Capital on the rooftops hoping to find a guard alone. As Raiden was travelling he had discovered a guard in his mid-thirties in another alley forcibly holding a woman. Raiden seeing a good opportunity decided to get closer to the guard without being noticed to avoid the woman getting killed.
"I know you were with that bitch so don't bother denying it. What you hate all men now is that it huh?" The guard had said in a gruff voice with a very angry tone
"Sir I told you last night I wasn't interested in men so please let me go. I don't hate men but in terms of a relationship I prefer women." The woman had said trying to get away
"That bitch can't help you now she's still back at the hotel. But I can still get a good taste." The guard had said before licking his lips making his intentions clear
Though before the guard could do anything Raiden had jumped down from the wall and cut off both of his arms. The woman who was held earlier was freed but she lost her balance and fell down. Though while she was down she had saw that it was Raiden from the wanted posters who had saved her.
"Damn it I thought you only acted in the night time I guess you can't trust all the news you hear huh?" The guard had said while trying to crawl away with his legs
"It doesn't matter the time of day so don't feel comfortable you son of a bitch. I heard the whole thing I guess you couldn't handle being turned down by a lesbian huh. Well don't worry I know how to deal with pricks like you. Though I have to admit you look well informed so how about you tell me what I wanna know and I let you keep your life no matter how little value it has." Raiden had said in an angry tone
"Fuck off" The guard had said
"Wrong answer" Raiden had said before stabbing his leg while the guard had screamed in immense pain
"What the hell." The guard had said
"Now either you tell me what I want to know or you can experience firsthand why I am called the ripper and I know where to start." Raiden had said pointing his sword at the guard's crotch
"OK you win I'll tell you what you want to know." The guard had said
"Thank you but first." Raiden had said before turning towards the woman he rescued
"Go now." Raiden had instructed the woman though as she was leaving she had spoken briefly to Raiden
"Thank you for helping me." The woman had said before running away
"Now for you I want to know about someone named bach and please don't skip on the details." Raiden had demanded
"I don't know much about him. The only thing I know for sure is that he buys people that has been sold by the Villages. But he does it frequently and we never really looked into the matter." The guard had said while panicking
"Why would Villages sell people?" Raiden had asked thinking back to what Akame had told him about her and her sister.
"The Empire raises taxes very frequently to a point that many Villages can't afford it. They have to sell the children or else they risk bringing in a lot of hardship for themselves." The guard had said while panicking
"Not much but I can work with it. You will do well to get medical attention but remember I catch you like I did earlier again and I will finish the job." Raiden had said deciding to leave the guard
After dealing with the guard Raiden had decided to spend more time investigating Bach and the situation of him buying Villagers. Though as he was investigating he had turned on his sensors to see if there was anybody nearby. As he was looking around he had noticed a small area that is deserted yet has been maintained. When Raiden had gotten a closer look he had seen that there are four people sitting down yet there are also many people in a position that shows they are hiding. Having a bad feeling about this Raiden had dashed towards the location after deactivating his sensors.
"GYAAAAAAAAA!" A young female voice had yelled
When Raiden heard the yell he recognized it as the yell of a young female. Realizing what could happen Raiden had run even faster hoping to avoid a repeat of what happened to Johnny and Mera.
(The isolated Restaurant in the Capital)
"No Fal!" One of the females that was being held down had yelled
"Now you can't run anymore girl. Are you satisfied with this Suka?" A young man with blond hair and red clothes had asked
"Yes it is always fun to break girls like her." The man known as Suka had said
"The people here are called the enthusiasts of the Capital. Apparently normal girls aren't enough for them but they enjoy breaking down girls after seeing their faces. The truth of it is that they are all disgusting freaks." Bach had explained in a casual tone oblivious to the fear that the girls are feeling
"It's thanks to us freaks that your able to make a profit." The man with the hat had said
"I suppose that you do have a point. So tell me which of these girls do you want?" Bach had asked
"I want that girl over there. Her eyes will be nice I love licking girls like that." The man with the hat responded
"He said the eyes." Bach had told one of the men before the man went to one of the held girls with the intent to take her eye out
"NO STOP PLEASE!" The girl with blue hair had yelled pleading with the man who was getting closer. Though unfortunately her pleads had fallen on deaf ears
"NO PLEASE LEAVE LUNA ALONE PLEASE!" The pink haired girl had yelled struggling to get free but to no avail
As the man was getting closer Luna had a look of panic on her face. She knew that what was going to happen next will be an excruciatingly experience for her. Though before the man had gotten close the wall right next to them had been destroyed in a burst and a lone figure was standing there. Then before anyone could process what happened the figure had quickly cut the man's arm off before slashing him in half. After that the figure had cut the heads off of each of the men holding onto the girls. After killing them the figure stood completely still and after the dust had cleared Bach and the enthusiasts had recognized the figure from the wanted posters and it was Raiden. Though as all of them looked at him they had noticed that he was radiating a red aura and everyone there felt a strong sense of fear.
"Shit Raiden of all people is here." Bach had stood up terrified at the man he recognized from the wanted posters who had just killed some of his men
"You know ever since coming to this Capital I have seen a lot of fucked up shit. But this is on a whole new level of fucked up. I heard the whole thing as I was coming here so I suppose your Bach?" Raiden had stated while radiating his red aura
"Yes I am but the only reason I turned out like this is because . . ." Bach had said before being chopped into several pieces in an instant by Raiden
"Save it bitch I'm not interested in your excuses you still knew this was going to happen and you lured the girls to this trap. Also don't think any of you is getting off either you sick fucks because your all next." Raiden had stated to everyone in the room before killing the robed men that was closest to him
The rest of the men that was alive was overwhelmed with fear but they all knew that it was a kill or be killed situation for them. Some of the guards had tried to attack Raiden from behind. Only for them all to be cut in half at a blinding speed by Raiden with little effort on his part. A few more guards had tried to attack him but they were chopped into pieces by Raiden. When the other guards had seen how Raiden killed the other people they knew that they were no match for them. With this realization they all tried to run away from him but Raiden had caught up to them and proceeded to kill each and every last one of them. After activating his sensors to see if there are anybody left he was satisfied seeing that nobody survived. After calming down Raiden had walked towards the three girls who all had a look of terror in their eyes. When Raiden had gotten close he had seen Fal's legs dislocated which confirmed that it was her scream that he heard.
"You two hold her down I have an idea." Raiden had instructed with the girls doing as he said
"What do you plan to do to her?" The pink haired girl had asked in a panicked tone trying to defend her friend
"I'm going to try to fix her legs. It's going to hurt but it is still better than leaving her like this. If I wanted to capture and kill you girls, I would have done it by now." Raiden had explained bluntly to the three girls
"Fine we'll do what you say my name is Air by the way." The girl now identified as air had said to Raiden after calming down a bit
"Try to bear with it for a bit because this is going to hurt." Raiden had said before he fixed Fal's legs by bending it back to the way they were causing her to scream for a quick second.
"She'll be fine but I suggest getting her to a Doctor to make sure she heals properly. If you check these guy's pockets, then I'm sure you all will find some money to use." Raiden had said before walking away. Though as he was walking Air had grabbed his arm trying to say something.
"Thank you for saving us I don't want to think about what would have happened if you didn't come by when you did." Air had said to Raiden
"No problem now hurry and get the money from their pockets and go. If the guards come and see this, then I bet you girls will be under a lot of suspicion. If you carry her then you should get away from here quickly enough." Raiden had said to the girls before getting away from the place.
After Raiden had gotten away from the place he had jumped at the nearest rooftop so he can look out for any guards. Fortunately for Raiden he did not see any guards getting to his recent locations. However, he had noticed many people running away from an area. When Raiden had saw this he had activated his sensors and took a closer look at the area. To his shock he had recognized not only the area but the building and knew immediately what the building was.
"Oh no." Was what Raiden muttered before dashing to the location hoping he makes it on time.
(The Hotel Room)
It has been roughly a month since Janey had experienced what happened to her home and her parents. Though on the surface she has healed from it, but deep within she is still haunted by what happened. She remembers Gonboro kicking down the door and a few guards had grabbed her and her mother and dragged them outside. While they were outside the guards had started throwing things at the building that she calls home and it had slowly started to catch fire. She also remembers Gonboro beating her father with that spiked hammer while he tried to defend himself.
She also remembers Gonboro and the other guards tearing her mother's clothes off and violating her. Janey tried hard to get free so she can help her mom but the soldier that was holding her is too strong.
"DON'T LOOK JANEY!" Her mother Merra had yelled while trying to fight back with all of her strength but to no avail
Janey tried to do as her mom said and close her eyes. But the guard that is holding her kept her eyes opened. Janey had experienced the ordeal in its entirety and every second of it was painful to her. Though before she lost consciousness she had saw a man in metal but his face is uncovered and the face looked very familiar to her.
After a while Janey had found herself living with a bunch of other people. Jack had made it clear that she went through a trauma and they should give her some space. She found herself helping out around the building and has gotten along with everyone but she wanted to be with Jack. She knows that Jack blames himself for what happened but she did not blame him because she knew that he left to save her father and if he knew that things would have happened the way it did then he would have stayed and protected her and her family.
She considers Jack to be very important to her and she wants to do what she can to help him when the situation allows it. At the very least she wants to make sure that she is not a huge burden to him. As Janey was deep in thought about what was going to be told to her. She had snapped out of it by hearing several loud yells. Then after a few seconds she had heard the doors being broken opened. Every time that the door breaks it gets louder and louder indicating that whoever is breaking down the doors is getting closer and closer.
Janey had spent a few seconds trying to find a place to hide. When she saw the bed she had made the immediate decision to hide underneath it. Then a few heavy seconds later her room door had been broken opened. She was hoping that whoever it was would just move on away from the room. Unfortunately, for Janey the intruder was not so easily fooled.
"Oooh a child sized bag the little angel is here in this room." A male voice had said causing Janey to be more frightened
After a brief second the bed that Janey was hiding under was thrown aside and she was immediately grabbed. When Janey had saw who grabbed her it was an obese man that had an appearance of a clown.
"My little red haired angel I see that you still have your innocence. Don't worry I will make sure you remain an angel." The clown had said with a sinister look in his eyes
Thinking quickly Janey had taken the hunting knife that she was given and stabbed the man in his hand causing her to be freed. After being freed she had decided to jump out of the window hoping that the man would not be able to jump down. After she landed she was in immense pain but it did not matter to her because she was able to move and she was determined to get away. Though before Janey could get far a man with a ponytail had kicked her knocking her down.
"I would not hear the end of it from Champ if a child has gotten away." Izou had said after kicking Janey
After Janey was kicked her chest had started to hurt along with the rest of her body. Then much to her shock she had saw the clown now identified as Champ jump down from the window and landed right next to her.
"You came very close to losing your innocence child so it is very fortunate that I came when I did. I see that you are hurt so don't worry I will personally lick your wounds thoroughly." Champ had said before he licked his lips and ripped Janey's shirt off.
Though before Champ could do anything further a lone female figure had thrown a knife at Izou. The samurai had used his sword to block it but as the knife was blocked the person had jumped off of a wall and kicked Champ away from Janey. Then the figure had taken off her jacket and tossed it to Janey. When Janey had looked at the figure she saw that it was a woman with black hair with green streaks in it. The figure is Jade a soldier who works under General Budo.
"Cover yourself up and get out of here I'll deal with these pricks." Jade had said while looking at the two
"I will not forgive anyone who gets in the way between me and a child. I will make sure you suffer a thousand times over you bitch." Champ had said with an infuriated look on his face.
"I was nearby when I heard the commotion and when I see a pedoclown holding up a kid then I know I have to do something. I know some guys who prefer younger chicks but they tend to make it clear that they don't prefer kids. If there's anything I hate more than psychotic bullshit its pedophiles and I'll be doing the world a service killing you." Jade had said not intimidated by Champ and Izou
"I am granted another opportunity to feed Kōsetsu and I will not miss it." Izou had said before taking a stance
When Jade had taken a quick glance behind her she had noticed that Janey has not moved. Jade suspects that she is too terrified with fear and sees that things will not be easy but she did not back down.
"Hmm I see a lot of metal pipes around here that gives me an idea." Jade had thought to herself
Before either Champ or Izou could do anything Jade had blasted an energy pulse at the surrounding area using her ring. As Champ was charging towards Jade she had manipulated the pipes to block Champ's pursuit. Izou being more agile he had managed to dodge the pipes and had gotten close to Jade. Though once he was close a knife was launched at him from the ground up. Izou realized that Jade has a teigu that allows her to control metal and decided to jump back. Seeing this as a good opportunity Jade has taken Janey and had gotten out of the alley.
Jade knew that the young girl is paralyzed with fear and as things stand the both of them are in a lot of danger. It won't be long before the two catches up so Jade had decided to hide Janey behind some boxes and barrels. Once Janey was hidden, Jade had prepared her fighting stance when she heard the two arrive at her location.
"Where is that child? Tell me where she or you will suffer in unspeakable ways." Champ had said to Jade
"Over my dead body I was trained by the Great General Budo and that makes me more than a match for the two of you." Jade had said punching her fists together.
After Jade made it clear that she wasn't going to be intimidated by the two. Champ was the first to dash towards her with the intent to kill her brutally. Jade had maintained her stance and when Champ had gotten close he had thrown a strong punch. Jade had grabbed his arm and managed to throw him away from her. Izou took this as a chance to attack Jade from behind. Noticing the attack Jade had ducked down and dodged Izou's sword attack. After dodging Jade had decided to kick Izou and managed to block another hit from Champ. Then Jade had blasted an enegy pulse from her ring at some metal pipes and sent them towards Champ. The pipes had hurt Champ and the brief stagger from the clown had given Jade the chance to stab him in the back with one of her knives. After stabbing Champ Jade had punched him in the face so hard it had sent him back a good distance.
After being knocked back Champ had decided to use his teigu and throw a red sphere at Jade. Suspecting that it was a teigu and not wanting to take any chances Jade had decided to leap to the side to dodge the sphere. When the sphere had made impact an explosion had occurred that had pushed Jade back and also injured her.
"Damn I suspected one of them had a teigu but I didn't think that it could be that strong. Hmm I don't need to win this fight just get them away from here and the girl. It looks like I need to use my teigu's trump card." Jade had thought to herself before twisting her ring
After Jade had twisted her polar ring several markings had appeared from the ring and has spread throughout her body. Champ not wanting to give the chance to attack decided to attack her by throwing another sphere at her. Once the sphere was thrown Jade did not move and instead the sphere had hit her directly.
"Yes that bitch is dead now I just need to find that cute child." Champ had said to Izou
"Champ look at your target and you'll see that you shouldn't let down your guard." Izou had said while maintaining his stance
Once the two had looked at the target after the flames had dispersed they saw that it was Jade standing there looking unharmed from the attack. Though what is different about Jade is that her body has several markings on it and the source of the markings came from her ring.
"hardening my body to the durability of orichalcum is my teigu's trump card. So I hope you guys have a plan otherwise this will end quickly and badly for you." Jade had said while returning to her stance
"It seems that you are truly bold to actually stand against the both of us. You have my respect but now you must die." Izou had said before dashing towards Jade with his sword drawn
Once Izou had gotten close he had swung his sword at Jade and she had successfully blocked it. Though while Jade had blocked it Champ had showed up behind her and threw another sphere at her from behind. The sphere had generated electricity and had hit Jade. The attack did not hurt Jade but she is distracted by Izou and is also cautious of the fact the Champ is getting closer to Janey. After a few seconds Jade had flipped over Izou and had made some space between the her and the two attackers.
"I need to come up with a plan and quickly. My teigu's trump card only lasts for ten minutes and the second my trump card ends I can't use my teigu for a few minutes." Jade had thought to herself
Though as Jade was thinking of a plan Champ had decided to throw an orb on the ground and it has caused a strong burst of wind. The wind had blown away the boxes and it has revealed Janey's location. Champ seeing Janey had a sadistic look of excitement on his face as he looked at her. Acting quickly Jade had dashed towards Janey to protect her. Unfortunately, Izou had attacked her thus stopping Jade from getting closer.
When Janey had seen Champ she knew what he wanted to do to her and she has a look of pure horror on her eyes. Jade had tried to get to Janey but every time she had gotten closer Izou had stopped her movements. Even though Jade's teigu trump card had hardened her body it did not make her invincible and she can still be knocked back. Not to mention that she is aware of the time limit and because of that she needed to act quickly. Unfortunately, Izou had proved to be stronger than she anticipated and the clown is ready to have his way with her. Though as Champ the clown was about to make his move against Janey his arm was immediately chopped off.
"GGGGYYYYYYYYYYYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!" Champ had yelled getting the attention of both Izou and Jade
When the both of them saw who had cut off Champ's arm they had saw a man that is covered in metal and they recognized the figure from the wanted posters as Raiden. After looking at Raiden he has sensed a great deal of blood lust coming from him and decided to ignore Jade and made the decision to fight him.
"Your stance and your aura you are very powerful. By granting your blood to Kōsetsu it will be satisfied greatly." Izou had said before dashing towards Raiden
When the two of them had gotten close their blades had clashed for a brief second. Then for a few seconds both of their attacks had parried each other but then in an instant Raiden had slashed Izou across his chest. After Izou was slashed Raiden had noticed at the corner of his eye that the clown had thrown something at Raiden. His sensors detecting that it was a teigu Raiden had dodged out of the way but not paying attention Raiden had realized that the sphere was heading towards Janey. Raiden had tried to dash to protect her but Champ had thrown another orb and had hit Raiden knocking him back. Before the orb could reach Janey and kill her Jade had rushed in front of her and blocked the attack with her hardened body.
Satisfied that Janey was protected Raiden had saw that both Izou and Champ wer close together and saw an opportunity to kill them both in one blow. Raiden had dashed towards the two and made the move to kill them both. Though before Raiden had gotten close a strong flash of light has been summoned briefly blinding Raiden. When the light dissipated Raiden had noticed that both the clown and the swordsman are gone. When Raiden had looked around he had seen that they are no longer in the area. After a second Raiden had decided to get to Janey and tried to speak to her. When he saw Janey she was shaking immensely in fear at what she had just experienced something Raiden understands all too well.
"Janey it's me Jack you don't have to be afraid. I'm sorry I didn't know this would happen." Raiden had said before opening his visors so Janey could see his face. After seeing Raiden's face she had immediately hugged him with the thought that her protector has arrived.
"I . . . I tried to get away but. ." Janey had said before Raiden stopped her from talking further
"It's OK Janey it's not your fault." Raiden had said before turning towards Jade who had saw the whole thing.
Raiden was prepared for what could happen because he knew that Jade is a soldier of the Empire. Currently Raiden was planning out numerous ways he can deal with her because if she made a move against him or Janey he would have to kill her. Though before Raiden did anything Jade was the first to speak to him.
"Let's get out of here. I think she has a few broken bones after dealing with those pricks and she needs to be treated soon. Don't worry its not a trap or anything but we need to get going right now. If the guards come and see the corpses in the Hotel, then the both of us will be suspect number one. I know a place that we can both get to but we have to hurry." Jade had said to Raiden
After thinking about his options for a bit Raiden realized that Jade has a point. Janey needs to get treated soon and if she does not get treatment then she will suffer great injuries in the long run. Raiden already feels guilty for failing Johnny and his wife and he does not want to fail his daughter either.
"Lead the way and don't worry about slowing down." Raiden had said to Jade as he picked up Janey before the both of them had ran off.
(A Day Later)
General Esdeath had recently caught wind of a rumor about the sightings of some members of Night Raid and had decided to pursuit it. General Esdeath knows Najenda well enough to know that she had most likely set up the rumor with the plan to lead them to a trap and decided to humor her with a plan in mind as well. As the General was leaving the Capital she had stopped by a small marketplace after receiving a report about a large number of people being killed. Though once she has arrived the sights of the corpses had intrigued her. The person who killed them all did not hold back in any way and killed all of them with relative ease. Not to mention that the most of the bodies cannot be recognized and the brutality is truly intense.
"From the appearance of the bodies that we could recognize it appears that they were all killed yesterday. It seems unlikely that it was Night Raid since they operate at night. Not to mention that we have no report of them possessing a teigu that could kill on a level such as this. The only person that could have done this is Raiden but the condition these bodies are in their barely recognizable." Run had explained to General Esdeath
"The local guards will be able to handle this crime scene. It doesn't appear that we can do anything further. For now, let us leave and pursue the sightings of the Night Raid members." General Esdeath had commanded Run. Though before they left a thought had crossed General Esdeath's mind.
"The way you killed them all. I knew you had something deep within you Raiden. I look forward to seeing what you are truly capable of in our inevitable clash." Esdeath had thought to herself as she was leaving the area for her mission.
(A/N)
A detail I would like to explain is that when Raiden is in his Jack the Ripper persona his speaking text will be italicized. I know it is easy to figure out but I want to explain that to prevent some confusion.
Now for the discretion warning I mentioned this earlier chapter. It has been established in the manga that Champ is a sadistic pedophile and considering the way he acts when it comes to kids is something that has to be established for the purposes for the story. Not to mention that this story is M rated and I still want to make use of the rating but it will be done for the purposes of the story.
Also as for the codecs I will implement them in three maybe four chapters. The reason I waited is because I want to get to a good point in this story and also make sure that I don't get through all codecs contents so soon. As I said before the codecs will NOT be canon to this story it's just a fun little side thing and they will be coming.
Last but not least it has slipped my mind to make note of this but Jade, Janey, Maurice, and Kate are OC's in this story. But please rest assured this story WILL NOT HAVE AN OVERABUNDACE of OC's. Some people may have a problem with OC's in fanfics but I will only implement an OC if it serves a purpose to the story and nothing more.
So read and review
Thank you
