Chapter 4

Shal looks down at himself and sees he is wearing a black leather outfit, with white and red details, a skull amulet on his waist with chains coming from it.

Along with that, he has a long red cape, and some spiked braces around Shal's ankles and wrists.

Shal: "Wow, this is wild!"

Knuckoliostro: "Come Shal, we must start training."

Knuckoliostro led Shal to a back ally.

Knuckoliostro: "Alright Shal, your powers are fueled by necroplasm, so you can not overuse them, otherwise you will be knocked out until your powers recharge the next day."

"Here is a watch to keep track of your powers to not overuse them."

Shal looks at his wrist to find a rectangular watch with the numbers: 9:9:9:9.

Knuckoliostro: "The way your powers work is, a bit contemplated."

Shal: "How?"

Knuckoliostro: "You can shoot elements from your hands, fly, teleport, chains are sentient, you can absorb any weapon with your cape and be able to super power the weapon, without using energy, and you can regenerate wounds and regrow limbs."

Shal: "Yea, a bit complex, but I think I get it."

Knuckoliostro: "One more thing, if your neck is cut in half, then you die for real."

Shal: "Woah, what!?"

"I can die with regeneration!?"

Knuckoliostro: "Yep."

Shal: "You speak really calmly, you know that?"

*Female screams*

Suddenly, Shal heard a scream from another ally.

Shal: "I have got to go help!"

Shal frantically ran over to the ally, to see a few thugs trying to throw a female bat into the back of a van.

Shal: "PUT. HER. DOWN!"

The thugs laughed to themselves.

Thug: "So what are you going to do?" "We are going to sell her to the porn market to be using in videos." "Jimmy!" "What?"

Shal: "Alright bastards, time for y'all to meet, The Savage!"

Savage runs in and lunges at the thugs!

Shal jumps up and smashes one of the faces in, he then backhands another with the spikes on his hand, then proceeds to kick the third one in the gut, then does a sweep kick and starts striking repeatedly , finally, he approaches the final one, and does a high kick to the face, breaking his nose.

Thug: "Damn, this guy is pretty good!"

"Time to pull out the guns!"

The thugs pull out their pistols and shoot Shal multiple times at the chest, head, and missed a few times.

Shal pretend to be dead and laid on the ground.

Thug: "Ha, got him!" "Time to get this pair of breasts to the market."

Then, Savage got up and said "She is not going anywhere where you are going."

Thugs: "WHAT!?"

Shal: I am done playing around!"

Shal found his anger charged up his Savage bolt and blasted it at the thugs, paralyzing them, before they collapsed.

Power limit 9:9:8:2

Thugs: "AGGHHHH!"

As the thugs were knocked out, Savage went over to the woman.

Savage: "You alright mam?"

Frighten Woman: "Yes *Inhales* I'm fine *Exhales*"

He gave her a few moments to catch her breath and calm herself, giving her enough space to not intimidate her.

Woman: "I can not believe they were going to sell me! As if I was a object!"

Savage: "I know right, some people are really fricked up, taking advantage of the weak. You upset the mob as a weak person, you are getting buried alive. You a normal woman walking down an ally, you're getting kidnapped. If you are a kid alone, you are... I don't even want to say it."

"That is why I have devoted my life to protecting the weak."

Suddenly he realizes: Wait is that Rhonda?! I have not seen her since high school! I did not recognize her!

Rhonda: "Thank you so much for saving me, but what is your name?"

Shal kind of stared at her for a little bit, still shocked seeing a long lost friend.

Savage: "Uuummm, call me, Savage."

Rhonda: "Savage? That is a weird name."

Savage: "It is the name of my race, and the thugs look like they were beaten by a savage."

Suddenly, a figure that resembled a Savage was watching from a roof top. Covered by darkness, and all you could see was his white, glowing eyes.

Savage: "You there! *points to the roof* Are you a Savage?"

The figure runs away and Shal gives chase.

Savage: "Sorry, Rhonda, I have got to go!"

Rhonda: "Wait? How does he know my name?"

*Knuckoliostro appears*

Knuckoliostro: *Clapping* "Great work Savage, I knew you could do it!"

Rhonda: "What?"

Knuckoliostro: "Ohh, it seems I forgot my pills, can you hand them to hand them to me? They are behind you."

Rhonda looks behind her only to see nothing, then looks ahead to see Knuckoliostro is gone.

Rhonda: "What is happening?"

Shal climbs up the roof to find the figure running away.

Shal: "HEY! I need to talk to you!"

The figure jumps down from the roof top and runs into a church.

Shal: "HA. You think you can hide in the Saint Street Church? I don't think so."

Shal walks into the church, it was very dark with no lights on.

?: "You. Betrayed. Me."

Shal: "What?"

?: "You killed me!"

Shal: "What do mea-"

Suddenly a gargoyle hits Shal, shattering into hundreds of pieces , knocking him to the ground.

Shal: "AGGHH!"

Then the figure jumps down from the support beams and shows itself.

Shal: "Who are you?"

?: "You don't recognize me?"

Shal: "NO!"

?: "Well then."

The figure steps in the light showing he has an outfit similar to his. His outfit is blue and gold, has a purple cape. But he has a big gold cross on his chest, and crosses on his boots. Lastly on the front and back of his hands are crosses.

Shal: "So are you a religious Savage?"

?: "No I. am. Your brother!"

The figure pulls off his mask revealing a burnt, scratched up, Sam face.

Shal: "NO! NO! NO! I thought you dead!"

Sam: "I am not. In fact, I am, *put mask back on* a Silvemer!"

Silvemer then floats up, his hand crosses glow and gets ready to fight.
