Chapter 34: Wheel-Wheel Hurricane!
Ensign Leorio and his unit of marines dragged Nefeltari Bulma down the street as they made their way toward the western port where Vice-Admiral Norrington's ship was docked.
Ensign Leorio pulled out his Baby Transponder Snail and called Norrington as he dragged Bulma with him.
"Hello?" A slow irritated response came.
"Vice-Admiral Norrington, sir, I got her! I have Nefeltari Bulma in custody!" Leorio shouted into his snail.
"Get off of me you Navy cocksucker!" Bulma screamed, "You've got the wrong idea!"
"Bring her to the ship immediately!" Norrington excitedly responded.
"We're en route to the ship now, sir." Leorio said and grinned as he thought about his promotion.
"I'm withdrawing our men from the city, we're leaving as soon as possible." Norrington stated.
"What of the others, sir? The Misfits?" Leorio questioned.
"We'll just take Bulma for now." Norrington laughed and said, "They dodged a bullet by letting us take her in peace. Their pathetic pirate lives will go on just a little longer."
Yasui and Brasco collided kicks and leapt around the Air Dimension as they clashed. Yasui ducked beneath a right hook from Brasco and he slammed a swift kick up into Brasco's jaw. Brasco skipped away from Yasui and sent four Tempest Kicks flying at him quickly.
Yasui turned his feet into wheels and zoomed between the slices of air as he dashed after Brasco. They exchanged heavy blows and Brasco hit Yasui's chin with a wicked uppercut. Yasui stumbled back and Brasco slammed him in the chest with two Finger Pistols. Yasui cried out and zoomed backward as he clutched his chest.
Brasco grinned and flashed his gold teeth, "You got guts kid. But you'll die like a dog today."
"That's assuming you don't value the life of animals." Yasui said and grinned.
Brasco Shaved at Yasui and struck him in the stomach with a swift punch. Yasui spun himself around quickly and slammed a kick into Brasco's left side. Brasco jabbed a Finger Pistol at Yasui's head, he ducked beneath the jab and slammed his right foot up into Brasco's chin. Brasco stumbled back and slammed both of his fists down on top of Yasui's head, knocking him down hard.
Yasui turned his hands into wheels and sped between Brasco's legs and all fours, he flipped around and changed his hands back to normal as he stood up. Brasco spun around and Shaved at Yasui, they exchanged blows and kicked each other back with swift kicks.
Brasco sent a series of Tempest Kicks flying at Yasui as he zoomed around the street in the Air Dimension. Brasco created an Air Door behind himself and moved to leap back into the real world.
Yasui kicked the ground several times in a second and Shaved beside Brasco, he slammed a savage kick into Brasco's chest and knocked him away from the door. Yasui reached out and closed the Air Door as Brasco stumbled back.
"I already told you that it's you and I. I won't let you escape!" Yasui declared and clenched his fists as he zoomed at Brasco.
Brasco ducked beneath a high kick from Yasui and he struck him in the stomach with two swift punches. They exchanged savage kicks and Yasui swept Brasco's legs out from under him.
Brasco scrambled to get up and Yasui struck him square in the nose with a powerful kick. Brasco skipped across the ground and crashed hard into a wall.
Yasui Shaved at Brasco and turned his hands into wheels; he flipped over and quickly spun around on his hands as he slammed a series of powerful kicks into Brasco's chest.
Brasco coughed blood and his eyes rolled to the back of his head as Yasui slammed his ninth kick into his chest. The wavy green atmosphere of the Air Dimension flickered and disappeared as Brasco lost consciousness.
Yasui grinned and stumbled around the street as passing citizens stared at him and the assassin. Yasui pulled out his Baby Transponder Snail and called Zika.
"Yasui?!" Zika quickly questioned.
"Yeah." Yasui chuckled and said, "I beat him."
"Can you make it to the hotel?" Zika asked.
"I'll head there now." Yasui said and zoomed down the street on his wheels.
Zika and Hama took an elevator in the Bayloke to the tenth floor, they dashed down the empty hallway and burst into the gym. Equipment was destroyed and the gym disheveled but nobody was there.
Hama sniffed around and barked at Zika's Baby Transponder Snail began to ring, "Yeah?" Zika answered.
"Yo, this is Shuhei. The marines are on the move in the city. Looks like they're heading to the docks, what's going on?"
"Way ahead of you on that. Where the hell are you at?" Zika asked with a chuckle.
"Renji and I are lounging around. That's what the bodyguard business seems to be. What're the marines up to?"
"Just head back to the hotel, we have a lot to talk about." Zika said and ended the call.
Hama barked and scratched at the door of the gym. Zika opened the door and Hama bounded to an elevator and barked.
Mugen ran toward the Misfits' shared suite and found Asuka slumped against the door. He was bruised and beaten but grinning as he watched Mugen approach him.
"What happened to you?" Mugen asked.
"There was an assassin after us." Asuka said simply.
"You too, huh?" Mugen said as he reached out his hand and pulled Asuka up to his feet.
"What do you mean?" Asuka asked.
Mugen opened the door and walked into the suite, "Hold that thought."
Mugen dashed through the living area and into Bulma's room. He found her unconscious in the shower with a towel draped over her. He kneeled down and nudged Bulma's shoulder, "Wake up."
Bulma remained still.
"Hey, Bulma!"
Bulma moved her head slowly and opened her eyes. She screamed and hugged the towel tightly, "What? What happened?"
"Some assassins came to kill us. I'll let you get dressed." Mugen said simply and returned to the living area.
Zika and Hama ran through the door as Mugen walked over to Asuka on the couch.
"So what the hell happened?" Asuka asked.
The Misfits and Renji met up in the living area of the suites and gathered together on the couches.
"So there was some creepy guy with a mustache that attacked me in the shower." Bulma said slowly.
"So that guy was actually a chick who could shapeshift." Mugen explained, "She just touched her face and changed appearances."
"Huh?!" Bulma gaped.
"And we got attacked by some door guy." Yasui said and nodded.
"A door guy?" Shuhei asked.
"He could create doors on surfaces and in the air." Zika explained.
"I fought an invisible man in the gym." Asuka stated and nodded.
"Three abilities fit for assassins." Renji said slowly.
"Oh! But the chick that took on Bulma's appearance was kidnapped by the Navy." Mugen said and grinned.
"What?" Bulma asked with a slight smile.
"They mistook her for you and took her." Mugen explained.
"So as long as they don't put Seastone cuffs on her then they'll leave us alone for a little while." Renji said and nodded.
"I saw a shit ton of marines making their way to the docks." Shuhei stated.
"Then they're fleeing the island with fake me!" Bulma exclaimed and clapped her hands together.
Asuka laughed and said, "That's hilarious!"
"We should probably lay low for a couple of days then." Zika said and nodded.
"I was thinking the same thing." Renji said, "With just under two weeks until the auction, we should lay low and prepare ourselves."
"What if the other two assassins come back? The door guy and invisible man?" Bulma asked.
Asuka shook his head and said, "Feitan carried me back to the suite after he regained consciousness." He grinned and added, "We settled things."
"I kinda just left the door guy in the street." Yasui said and scratched the back of his head.
Zika grinned and said, "I'm sure he's learned his lesson and will leave us alone." Zika laughed and Hama barked happily.
The three Navy ships sailed away from Yorknew City heading in an easterly direction. Commodore Francis, Lieutenant Commander Lisa and Ensign Leorio stood on the deck smiling and sharing a drink after a successful capture.
Vice-Admiral Norrington appeared from below deck with a wicked grin on his face. "Congratulations are in order! I'm sure we'll all be rewarded heavily for the return of Nefeltari Bulma!" He cackled.
"Very good, sir." Lisa said and nodded.
"And now, Bulma and I can finally be married!" Norrington exclaimed and grinned devilishly.
"Very good, sir." Lisa said again.
"Indeed. I'll be wed when we arrive at G-1" Norrington said and nodded.
Leafa sat chained to the wall of a cell in Vice-Admiral Norrington's office. Her arms were still cuffed behind her back and she was crying. If she hadn't taken this girl's appearance then she wouldn't be in this mess. She wouldn't be a captive of the monster that Norrington was…
Renji found himself having that dream again. The dream had replayed in his mind every night he slept in Yorknew City. He was eight years old again and ran over the corpses of his family. The peace and quiet of Scarlet Village came to a sudden and horrid end when ten phantoms arrived.
The ten phantoms were powerful pirates seeking the Kurta Clans sacred treasure, their Scarlet Eyes. When members of their clan died, their eyes would crystalize and turn scarlet. These eyes could be sold for a high price and the pirates had come to obtain the whole collection.
A large man with wild hair and dark skin struck down the Kurta with savage blows that shattered their bodies. A tall broad shouldered man with black hair and long earlobes fired his fingers like machine guns and mowed down the fleeing Kurta as the village burned. A woman with long pink hair in a matching fur coat swung her arms wildly and split members of the Kurta into small pieces as she laughed..!
The phantoms fell onto the clan and ripped their eyes from their corpses. The Kurta Clan fought back but were ultimately massacred. Renji watched as his family was slaughtered and a tall man in a kimono wielding a sword came to his house. He cut down his parents and siblings and Renji grabbed a knife and stabbed the man in the leg. The phantom swordsman struck Renji down and stomped on him until he stopped moving.
Renji awoke hours later, two of his eyes cut out and his village still burning. He stumbled through the burning village while crying blood and screaming for someone to help him. He wandered away from the village and collapsed on the beach. Renji screamed and wished for death as the tide slowly approached him.
"You survived that, eh lad?" A man suddenly spoke.
Renji jolted awake suddenly and shook his head. He was on the couch in the corner as Shuhei slept on the bed. Renji got up and stretched quietly and got dressed. He walked out into the living area of the suites and got a glass of water.
A quick and quiet succession of knocks hit the door and Renji tensed up suddenly. He moved quietly to the door and opened it slowly, nobody was on the other side or in the hallway. A Transponder Snail was stuck to the door and Renji grabbed it carefully. The snail began ringing and Renji stepped out into the hall and closed the door behind him.
"Who is this?" Renji asked as he answered the call.
"The Akatsuki will arrive in Yorknew City soon." A simple reply came.
"Who is this?!" Renji asked and sensed the area for someone watching him.
"Come to the abandoned amusement park in the southeast of the city. I'll be waiting for you there." The call ended.
Renji put the snail in his pocket and reluctantly walked down the hall to the elevators.
