Kurogane
His blood was running cold as he released Fai's hand for the sake of mobility. He listened carefully as they approached the broken down building, already noticing the spots that were dangerously damaged. He made a mental note to keep himself, Syaoran and Fai away from those spots. They quickly ran around to the back finding an old broken window. Syaoran carefully hoisted himself up and through first, Fai following before he made his way over the sill, careful of the broken glass. They were inside and it was dusty as hell. Old crates lay around and the smell of the place made him want to vomit it was so putrid. They carefully manoeuvred through the moonlit building; carefully avoiding trash and broken glass so they didn't attract attention.
It was when Syaoran tripped did the trouble start. His depth and perception. As usual. There were sleepy groans and a few shouts before the lights were flicked on, revealing their location. They were in a room packed full of gang members. "Hey, it's the ones from that city!"
Kurogane growled recognizing one of the members; one of the ones who had taken them by surprise. This was personal now. He was the only one really fully capable of fighting because he wan't blind in one eye, but he did have a slight handicap - his arm hadn't healed fully yet. Oh to hell with it; he was looking forward to a good fight.
One of the gang members leapt out first, causing others to jump forward. Kurogane smirked as he punched out, his fist giving a satasfying crunch as it connected against human jaw. He glanced over at Fai who easily dodged all of the punches and kicks, only striking out when he had to. Syaoran was holding his own as well with a few mighty kicks to hold back the gang. This particular gang wasn't too big; about fifteen members so that was five members for each of them. Gotta love basic math.
Kurogane had managed to knock out about one so far and was working on his second when he heard a door fling open. He took a brief glance over to the direction that the door had opened seeing an older man with black and white hair an a monocle. Kurogane almost lost it; it was the man who killed his parents. His father had been chief of police in Nihon and his mother had gotten in the way, trying to protect his father. Kurogane howled in rage, lashing out with his metal fist, letting it crack right up against one guy's head. "Fei Wong!" He ran to try and snag his revenge only stopping when he noticed Sakura encircled in his arms. She was passed out, her head laying against the crook of his arm.
"Take care of them - I'm leaving." His deep voice sent shivers of rage through Kurogane's body as he elbowed one guy in the gut, only to get cut off by a tall man with glasses. His hair was black and long, pulled neatly back in a ponytail. "For the sake of our future, we will not let them past." This was the guy who had taken Fai's eye.
"Yes, Kyle!" One of the gang members chirped to the obvious member in charge, only to get kicked out by Syaoran.
Kurogane pratically roared with rage. "YOU!" He was already lunging forward, the Kyle dude dodging easliy.
He smirked tauntingly. "You're the ones from the city. Hmm, maybe I should take your friends other eye this time?"
Kurogane to anyone else would probably look phycotic right now; he needed to get his hands on Fei Wong only to have the one who took Fai's eye right in front of him. Kurogane turned to Syaoran, barking an order. "Kid go after Sakura. NOW!" Despite his usual mantra of not caring what people thought of him he didn't want the kid to seem him possibly kill someone. He gave a breif glance at Fai, happy to see the blonde still in peak condition, taking care of the remainders.
Kurogane focused on Kyle, a savage grin crossing his face. "You are SO going to regret what you did to the blondie."
The other only chuckled. "You think that a simpleton like yourself can overcome me in a battle? How sad." He pulled out a gun and pointed it in Kurogan and Fai's general direction. Kurogane glanced back to Fai who was oblivious to the suddenly play of a weapon. It was at that moment when he heard a long crack and felt a hard force hit him. He fell to the ground with shock, his eyes wide, his hand running to where he'd been shot.
Fai
Fai heard the gunshot and froze. He'd knocked out the last of the random goons and now he could only turn to the sight before him; Kyle with gun in hand and Kurogane, his guardian, on the ground. Fai felt a lump form in his throat, the back of his eyes stinging; what if he lost Kuro? What if neither of them made it out alive? What would happen to Syaoran and Sakura? Would Syaoran win against that man? Fai watched as Kyle pointed the gun at him and Fai accepted it; he wouldn't run anymore, not since he'd met Kurogane. Fai closed his eye as he heard the metal of the trigger start to be pulled back.
Bang.
Nothing.
Fai opened his eyes to see the gun knocked clear of Kyle, Kurogane beating the surprised gang member until he was crumpled on the ground in a bloody unconcious heap. Fai blinked at Kurogane who turned to him, his hand resting on his... left arm. Fai gasped in relief as he ran and embraced Kurogane, tears streaming down his cheek. He didn't think he'd been so happy; he hadn't lost his doggie. Fai let Kurogane seperate them, glancing at each other.
"We need to find the kid..."
"I don't thinks so."
They both spun to see... Syaoran waking towards them, a long black trench coat on, and one blue eye and one brown eye instead of two brown eyes. "Syaoran have you gotten Sakur--" Fai scattered away from Kurogane when Syaoran lunged at them, missing but turning to face them.
"You must be mistaking me for my brother, Syaoran."
Fai noticed Kurogane grimace and then it hit him; the one who took his eye that day wasn't the Kyle person - it was actually Syaoran. "Kuro..."
"Yeah, I get it."
Fai sighed and watched Syaoran just in case he did anything. And that he did; he ran.
They both followed swiftly, keeping right behind Syaoran. That was until Syaoran ditched out of a window to face his brother. Fai and Kurogane glanced at each other and nodded; they'd find another way down - Kurogane wasn't light enough to try that and he didn't want Fai going out their alone. They both hurrid along corridors, searching as they did. They cound the window they enteredfrom and paused, hearing something.
"YOU TWO ON THE GROUND!"
Fai glanced at Kurogane who hurrid through the window, Fai following. They ran to the front of the building seeing blue and red lights flashing and police everyhere. Obviously, during one point Sakura had awoken seeing as she was being pried away from Fei Wong.
