Chapter 5: Rage and Fury

Now that we got ourselves in the broadcast, it's time to take this gang to the next level. But...how?

I wish I can think of something. So far, a week had passed and no gang tried armying in our turf. Paranoid Muthafucking bastards. No guts to take us on except the Satan's Mothers. Man, I bet they're still trying to recover from the numerous sneak attacks we executed on them.

Ah who cares...right now, the ninjas are all over our turf scouting, patrolling and guarding.

For me, I was just in the safehouse with my lieutenants playing a dice game. "You know the rules, 25 bucks and whoever claims all the bread is a rich, damn muthafucker!" Shinobi stated the rules as we laughed and Bushido took 2 die and placed them in a cup. "Samurai. What's your bet?"

"Uh...9?" He answered as Bushido shook the cup with his hands covering it as the die inside rolled about. A few seconds later, he rolled the die out and they rolled out a number 7. "Ha! You sucker! Pay up dickhead!"

"Aw fuck you Bushido! Here's the damn shit!" We laughed as Samurai paid Bushido when Shadow approached us. "Hey, uh, Shogun. I got a problem."

"And what is that dumbass?"

"Well...I'm out of paint."

"The fuck? Aren't there any dealers in this area?" I demanded to know. No one said a word for some reason. "Fuck this! Fine, let's visit some turf and look for dealers. I guess here since we set foot here, ain't much dealers here. I guess they don't even pay a visit."

I got up as, "You all stay here." I then walked to Stab who's playing a guitar and 5 other ninjas who are bored. "The 6 of you. Asses out! We're dealing!"

"Finally! Some fucking action I'm itching to go!" A ninja cheered as they stood up and followed me and Shadow.

So...

Again, we wait at the platform and boarded a train.

Manhattan, Riverside...

Nightfall has descended and it's perfect for the ninjas so that we can move in the darkness unseen. As we exited the subway, "I'll get some flash. You get your paint. We'll split and meet near the park. Got it?"

"Solid man. The 3 of you, on me!" Shadow and 3 ninjas went their way while me, Stab and 2 others went our way.

We walked around looking for any dealers. We passed by random civilians and hobos in the streets or at the alley. "I wonder if I brought any bread..." I asked myself as I checked my pockets. "Oh fuck. I didn't bring any! You guys brought any?"

"Sorry. I'm all empty." Stab answered and likewise, the other 2. "Shit! Looks like we need to do some looting!" I suggested. "Hell yeah! Let's get our hands full!" a ninja cheered.

So we went to a store but before we can begin, "Hold."

"What?" Stab exclaimed. "I got an idea that will not draw attention to us."

It cuts to the back of the store where, "Good. I see a backdoor. Stab, try to unlock it, the rest of you, steal some car radios over there." I ordered. Stab got to work while I waited by chewing gum. Soon enough, "Unlocked."

"Nice work Stab." I exclaimed as the 2 ninjas returned with 2 stolen car radios. "Decent work. Now, time to go mayhem!"

In the store, we wrecked it apart and looted the goods. One of the ninjas drew his ninjato and sliced the cash register into half. Pleased, I took the money and we left.

In another store, we did the same thing thanks to the backdoor. And it has more goods than the previous store we went to. We even stole a few more car radios by any chance we see a ride.

3 more stores were looted after the last 2, "Okay, we got tons of bread. Now, where to find a dealer or 2?" I asked. Nearby, a homeless man eavesdropped our conversation. "If you pay me, I can tell you where to find what you're looking for." That surprised us for some reason. So a deal's a deal. I paid him some bread and, "You turn left, and then, straight and right, you see a Flash Dealer."

"Thanks." We took off following the directions and soon enough, "There he is!" A ninja exclaimed. We approached the dealer as, "Need some flash? Got plenty but you'll have to pay." I came prepared at least thanks to 5 raids resulting in full, successful loots. "16 flashes please."

"So much? It costs a lot you know."

"Of course, I have it all right here."

Pretty short but the dealer is satisfied. "First time someone pays me more than a hundred! YES!"

Near Riverside Park...

Shadow and his team were waiting for us as we arrived. "I got some flashes for us all. 2 each." I told him. "Nice! I got some paint thanks to some looting and mugging! I even stopped to lay down some burners for fun!" Shadow told me. All of us laughed as we fist bump each other. After supplying the flash, "We have what we came for, let's head back." All agreed with me as we decided to cross through the park to the subway.

During the crossing, I saw something and stopped my followers. "Something wrong Shogun?"

"Hide in the shadows. All of you!"

"Ha! That's the codename you gave me!" We hid under the shades of the trees. There, at a baseball field, "Cops...those fucking, dirty corrupt pigs..." I noticed as rage started to fill me. "Not just 30 of them. They're busting 12 of those Baseball Furies!" Shadow exclaimed. "You mean those thugs wearing New York Yankee baseball uniforms, warpaint on their faces and armed with baseball bats as their primary weapon?"

"Of course Shogun. I mean, look at them." Shadow stated as at the field, the Furies and cops clashed with bats and truncheons. "Which melee weapon is better between both sides?" A ninja asked. "Shut up and stay silent. We'll be wasting all the cops once we have the advantage." I told them all.

This is the plan. I'll infiltrate without notice if possible and disable the lights in the field. Once the area is dark, the ninjas strike swiftly and deadly! Yeah. this plan will work as I entered the field and the others stayed near the entrance for the signal.

The bopping is not going well for the Furies as half of them were busted. 2 Furies, one with a skull facepaint named Cobb and the other with the yellowish green facepaint with a black circle painted around his left eyes named Thurman are trying to bop their way. "Shit! Too many pigs Thurman!"

"I know Cobb! All but us got busted! Damnit!"

And right now, the cops had them surrounded. "Nowhere to run now you baseball bastards!" A cop insulted. "Yeah man, so much for the Furies! I thought they're suppose to be furious!" said another. The cops then prepared to bust their asses. "Okay, let's finish this. Kiss your asses goodbye!"

"Oh I don't think so..." It cuts to the scene where I'm at the lighting system. "Goodnight."

"CLICK!"

"The fuck? Another blackout?" a cop panicked as all looked around in confusion in the dark. From the entrance, "He's done it! Let's go! No mercy for all those pigs!" Shadow ordered as the ninjas drew their weapons and charged in.

As for me, "Hell yeah! Waste all the pigs!" Rage has filled me completed as I drew my twin katanas and charged.

In the darkness, "I can't see a thing! I can't-"

"SHING!"

"AAAAAAAAAAH!"

"The fuck is going on? We need-AAAAAAAAAAAAAHHH!"

"Someone do somethi-AAAAAAAAAAAAAHHH!"

"The hell? We're being-AAAAAAAAAAAAHHH!"

"I don't wanna die! Help! I wanna-AAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHH!"

"SHING! SHING! SHING! SHING! SHING! SHING!"

All Thurman and Cobb can hear the sounds of cops screaming and stabbing. "Stay close to me Cobb. Prepare for the worst." Thurman advised him. This went on for only 5 minutes until they heard nothing.

Then, the lights are on and what Thurman and Cobb saw was unexpected.

In front of them, are the Ninjas and around them, 30 wasted boys in blue. "Now that's a lot of corpses man!" Cobb exclaimed. Thurman then looked at us. "You bastards saved us from being busted! Oh man!" He went to embrace me as I snapped my fingers and the ninjas began freeing the busted Furies.

Soon enough, all the Furies are free and, "I owe you for this man! My name's Thurman! Warlord aka Manager of the Baseball Furies!" We shook hands. "This guy with the skull facepaint is my Main Lieutenant aka Umpire, Cobb!" I shook his hand as Stab approached me, "Shogun. What are gonne do with all those dead pigs?"

"Oh right...find some alley and ditch all of them!"

"We'll help!" A Fury volunteered. So both Ninjas and Furies took the corpses and got to work.

Soon enough...

All the corpses are dumped in a corner of an alley piled up into a pile. "Our work here is done. Ninjas, let's go home." Before we could leave, "Hold on man, why not you chill with us for a while? We owe for this remember?" said Thurman. The Furies agreed with him as the ninjas looked at me.

It cuts to the Furies' hideout where music is blaring through the speakers as both gangs partied. Shadow and the Furies' artist aka shortstop BJ are having a contest on who can paint the gang logo fast. Stab is seen interacting with some Furies. "All ninjas get these as part of their colours." He drew his ninjato impressing them. "Damn nice! We usually have these as our colours too!" A Fury named Ryan stated as he showed Shadow his bat.

Nearby, "You Furies bopped and batted like crazy! You guys got game!"

"Yeah Shogun! I have to admit, you ninjas are crazy raged killers wasting all the pigs in the dark!"

"They don't know what hit 'em Thurman! That's how the ninjas roll!" As we chat, a Fury named Zack offered us a drink, "Sorry, I don't drink booze. Soda only."

"Crazy as fuck man, all your boys all say the same thing to me." said Zack.

"It's one of our code of conducts." I explained. Zack understood and went to get me soda. He returned shortly and, "Catch!" Using his bat, he swat the can to me and I caught it. As me and Thurman drank we had a nice and interesting chat.

Later, we came out, "We did some talking and it's official. The Baseball Furies and the Ninjas are allies!" Thurman announced. All cheered as both ninjas and furies hi-5 or fist bump.

Just then, the radio came on.

"Alright boppers. Latest ratings are from Manhattan. It seems like lots of boys in blue got wasted big time. And I mean big, 30 of them pissing off the fuzz so great, mayhem's on the loose. So one advice, lay low and cease all stuff you're doing in the streets."

"Oh shit! We gotta get back to Jackson Height!" A ninja exclaimed. "And how the hell the pigs knew of the wasting of their own?" another asked. "Chill ninjas. We'll all head back right now and lay low." I assured to them.

"That's dangerous man! The fuzz is in mayhem over this! Y'know, you can drop by for the night here and head back tomorrow."

"Thanks for your hospitality Thurman. But don't worry, you'll see how we ninjas roll!"

We are now near the entrance of their hideout as Shadow and I crouched a bit forward to see the situation. Thurman and Cobb tagged behind us and once we got a clear view, what we saw was full of chaos.

In the streets, numerous riot police are going around busting anyone wearing colours and numerous gang members from the Boppers, Electric Eliminators, Hi-Hats, Hurricanes, Punks and Panzers all either bopping down the police or getting their asses busted.

"Crazy!" I exclaimed. Then, "Well Thurman. It's nice meeting you. Ninjas! Let's go!"

To the Furies' surprise, we dashed out and jumped our way up the roofs. "Damn! They're fast! Like real ninjas!" said a Fury named Darien. After that, the Furies headed back to lay low. As for Thurman, he caught a glimpse of us leaping from one roof to another. "I won't forget this day." He thought. "We'll meet again Shogun."

Oh the Ninjas will. I guess. Well, the alliance was established at least. Reviews appreciated.
