A.N. You know, I thought about putting the dates I published each chapter. But then I realized that a) I upload daily - and - b) Review dates are recorded the day the review is posted.

...so, if you want to know when each chapter is posted in the future, rate and review!

Chapter 11 - Mutiny

There they were, the two facing off against a gang of criminals and scoundrels. They were outnumbered 20-to-2 and were totally outclassed in terms of numbers and weapons.

Thus, it's time to reveal the secret weapon.

"Now!" At Rory's cry, an explosion of glass made the goons and King look behind them. Seeing them distracted, Rory lit a match and threw it at the source of the sound.

*FWOOSH*

The broken bottles of alcohol lit up as the ground started to burn extremely fast.

"Oh! OH! OH SH- EVERYONE! PUT OUT THE FIRE!" King realized how bad the situation was turning, with his base suddenly catching fire and the goons not knowing what to do.

Taking this chance, Rory and Roman took the chance to attack while several of the goons were distracted. Roman, using his cane like a baton. Rory, swinging his golf club and smacking heads.

"Idiots! Put out the fire quickly and get rid of these guys!" While King stood near the back away from the fighting and the fire, Rory and Roman took out the few goons not fighting the fire.

As King tried to find a way out of this situation, the sound of glass breaking made him turn back in fear. Suddenly appearing before him was a strange oddly colored girl holding a parasol in her hand. The girl smirked, before swiping the object in her hand with a wide swing, letting out a loud SMACK upon hitting King's head.

Meanwhile, Rory was facing off against two of King's henchmen using the club to deflect blows from their shoddy knives. A stray swing managed to cut at his cheek.

"What th- this guy doesn't even have Aura!"

Yup, that was Rory. No Aura, no Semblance, not even proper fighting techniques or anything like that. Just a frantic assault that left no room for comfort.

"You think you're so great?!" King suddenly yelled, throwing Neo backward. Rory turned to King, noting how Neo managed to land perfectly with her usual grace.

"I have run this business since before you were in diapers! I have control over the criminal empire of Vale itself, what gives you the right to come in here and claim my throne?!"

"Cause I don't have an ego-inflated head!" Throwing his weapon at King - who was hit with a loud *SMACK* - Rory turned around and ran backward while Neo once again jumped at the opportunity.

"You think you can stop me?! Three kids against my group. I'll make sure yo-" Whatever King was going to say was interrupted as he took a blow to the back of the head.

Falling unconscious, everyone turned in shock as they saw that it was one of King's henchmen who knocked the leader out himself.

Seeing the stares directed at him, the lanky teenager - who Rory later realized was Junior - shrugged and said, "Down with the King."
