AUTHOR'S NOTES: I apologize for the long update again. My schedule is a bummer. Too many examinations that made my brain bleed. Thank God I managed to finish Chapter 6 and Chapters 7 & 8 are on the works this time. Thanks for the reviews and thanks for reading my fanfic.
CHAPTER 6: THE DARKEST HOUR
At the city park, Abby was furious at Benedict.
ABBY: Where the hell is he?!
Then, the 1st ninja charges towards her and punches Abby but missed. She kicked the ninja in the back and fell to the ground. The 2nd ninja kicked Abby in the knees, causing her to fall. She didn't notice the ninja behind her. When the 2nd ninja was about to stab Abby with his katana, Benedict appeared and hitting the 2nd ninja with his bo.
ABBY: What took you so long?!
BENEDICT: Sorry! I'm not expecting this to happen!
ABBY: So, this match is even! One's for you and the other's mine.
BENEDICT: Great! Let's see which one of us first takes down the opponent.
ABBY: I'm sure it would be me!
Abby charges towards the 1st ninja.
Meanwhile, at the restaurant, Elektra and Daredevil are starting to fight Kinkou and Stone.
DAREDEVIL: Ok, Elektra. Let's finish this.
ELEKTRA: I'm getting mad already.
STONE: Stop chatting and let's get this done right away!
ELEKTRA: Well, if you said so!
Stone charges towards Daredevil and punches Daredevil in the chest but he missed. Daredevil hits Stone with a chair but the chair has no effect on him.
STONE: That didn't hurt me!
Stone punched Daredevil and he was blown away due to the impact. Kinkou ran towards Elektra and kicks her in the stomach but she manages to evade it. She slashed him in the back before he could ever attack. Then, Kinkou kicks her in the knees and she fell to the ground. Kinkou gets his knife and stabs Elektra but she dodges it quickly. She stood up and kicks him in the head. He fell down. When he was about to stand up, she stabbed him in the chest.
ELEKTRA: You didn't see that coming!
Elektra pulled her sai out of his chest and his body disintegrates into green mist.
Daredevil stood up from the counter and gets a metal pipe. Hi hits Stone and a little shard of his skin were blown away.
STONE: That hurts!
Stone punches Daredevil but he quickly avoided it and swung the pipe hard to Stone's knees. Stone fell. Daredevil noticed the sharp tip of the pipe. Before Stone stands up, Daredevil stabbed him in the head and he disintegrates into green mist.
ELEKTRA: That was a close one.
Elektra was wiping her head.
DAREDEVIL: Yeah.
ELEKTRA: 2 down. 3 more to go.
Meanwhile, at the city park, Abby charges at the 1st ninja. She punched him in the face. She kicked him in the stomach but he dodges it quickly. He slashes Abby in the chest but he missed. Abby kicked him in the knees and forces him to kneel. She wrapped her beads to his neck and snaps his neck. Benedict punches his opponent in the face. The ninja evaded the attack. Benedict quickly hits the ninja in the face with his bo staff. The ninja flew high and landed into the grass. He stood up quickly as Benedict approaches him. He slashed Benedict but Benedict blocked it with his staff and his staff was cut into two. He hits the ninja several times until he fell. As the ninja stands up, Benedict reaches for the ninja's sword and he stabbed him in the chest.
ABBY: Tired?
BENEDICT: A little.
While they were talking, Elektra and Matt arrived.
ELKETRA: Are you okay, Abby?
ABBY: I'm fine. We just took on 2 ninjas.
ELEKTRA: Who's your friend?
ABBY: Oh! It's Benedict. Benedict, this is Elektra.
They both shook hands.
ELEKTRA: Hi.
BENEDICT: Hi.
Elektra pulled Abby away from the two boys.
ELEKTRA: Is he your boyfriend?
ABBY: No! We're just friends… You know… Just friends.
ELEKTRA: Oh! He can fight too.
ABBY: Yeah.
ELEKTRA: I thought you're the one defending him.
They both giggled. Meanwhile, Benedict and Matt are staring at the two girls.
BENEDICT: Are they always like that?
MATT: Always. When they act like that, the oldest is acting like the young one.
BENEDICT: Yeah.
MATT & BENEDICT: Girls…
The boys looked annoyed. Back at the girls, Elektra is having a vision. A grenade was thrown and is heading towards them. Just as Elektra snaps back to reality…
ELEKTRA: Look out!
Elektra grabbed Abby and Matt grabbed Benedict as they dodges the grenade and it explodes.
MATT: They're really trying to kill us.
At the Hand's lair…
KIRIGI: Damn it!
BULLSEYE: What?
KIRIGI: They did it again.
BULLSEYE: Your 2 buddies died?
KIRIGI: Yeah… I need a plan.
BULLSEYE: Need help with the plan?
KIRIGI: Sure…
Back at the apartment, Elektra is tending the wounds Matt sustained from the fight.
MATT: Ow!
ELEKTRA: Stay still.
Abby is at the phone, talking to her dad on the other line.
MARK (other line): How are you?
ABBY: I'm fine, dad.
MARK: How's Elektra?
ABBY: She's fine, too.
MARK: Are you having fun there?
ABBY: I'm having a good time here. How about you dad?
MARK: I'm just talking with my next door neighbor.
ABBY: Oh… Are you enjoying it?
MARK: Well… Let's say… yes.
While they're doing something, the power went off. Abby shrieked.
MARK (other line): Are you okay?
ABBY: I'm fine dad. The power just went off. I have to go. Bye.
MARK: Ok. Bye.
Abby putted the phone down.
ELEKTRA: Abby? Where are you?
ABBY: I'm here!
Matt interrupted and whispered.
MATT: Shhh… Quiet…
Matt listened eagerly and the girls had a vision. Ninjas across the building, with guns, are aiming at them. As they snapped back to reality…
ELEKTRA & MATT: Get down!
They all crouched down as the men started firing at them. The vases broke. The pictures shattered. Few minutes later, the gunfire stopped. The men start to reload. While they're reloading, Elektra and Daredevil appeared and took out the 2 ninjas on the opposite side. Elektra stabbed the ninja in the head and slashed the approaching ninja in the mouth. Daredevil strangled the next ninja. He snapped the neck of another ninja.
After the battle, they sighed in relieve. Elektra went to Daredevil but Tattoo appeared and stabbed Daredevil in the chest. He coughs up blood. Elektra was shocked and furious of this. She threw her sai at Tattoo. It landed into Tattoo's head. Elektra pulled her sai back and whispered…
ELEKTRA: Go to hell…
She threw Tattoo into the pavement from the building. Before he reaches the ground, he disintegrates into green mist. Elektra rushed to Daredevil. He was barely breathing.
ELEKTRA: Matt… No… Please!
DAREDEVIL: Sorry…
ELEKTRA: Stay with me… Please! I just found you…
DAREDEVIL: You too…
His strength was gone… Elektra tried to revive Matt but failed… Tears rolled down from Elektra's eyes as rain starts to pour. Elektra lost the man that she only had. They just found each other but now, he's gone… Elektra was crying as she knelt at Daredevil's side. Suddenly, she heard a scream. She stood up and concentrated. She started to have a vision. Abby was kidnapped by the ninjas of the Hand. After seeing this, she ran to the apartment and saw two ninjas carrying Abby.
ELEKTRA: Abby!!
Elektra ran towards the ninjas but as she goes nearer, she was punched in the face and fell unconscious.
NINJA: Sorry honey but the treasure's ours!
The ninjas left. Elektra's all alone in the wreckage, unconscious.
