Marcus: History's Most Vengeful Disciple

マーカス:歴史上最も復讐に燃える弟子 Introduction: This fan-manga is inspired and dedicated to the original series "Kenichi History's strongest disciple". It is meant to intermingle my personal OC characters and situations with the original cast. The writer Syun Matsuena owns all of his own characters within History's Strongest Disciple Kenichi. I am creating this series for fun and entertainment purposes only for the time being. If History's Most Vengeful Disciple Marcus ever gets any large number of attention, then I might continue and create the series in manga and anime style sometime in the future. Much love and support to the original creator Syun Matsuena and his manga works. I must also notify to all of you reading that the first couple of chapters will focusing on introducing the OC characters to create a working ground of the main story and intermingle the interactions with the OC characters and the Kenichi Characters later on. This is also my very first time posting any type of story of my favorite anime series/manga. So expect some mistakes and improvements.

ENTIRE BACKSTORY: 1st Version.

Tragedy Arc: Marcus Alessandro is a young teenager who was being brought to live in Japan by his Father (Amelio Alessandro), accompanied by his Mother (Yesenia Alessandro), and Older Brother (Macario Alessandro) to live their new lives near Koryo, Japan. But as Marcus became comfortable living in his new town and country, his life takes a dramatic plunge when a group of gangsters and their leader pursue after his life and his family's. Being the only family member to survive, he now finds himself struggling to control his sorrow, rage, grief and desire for vengeance before meeting an expert martial artist who invited him to be trained and taught by a group of Masters to fend for himself and eventually avenge his family's death.

Chapter 1: A Paradise Ruined By Murder and Tragedy.

Opening song: Fading Away by Demon Hunter

Inside an Airplane that has finished landing at Narita Airport in Japan. Marcus is seated on the aisle seat close to the back of the plane reading and studying his Japanese language learning book intensely and nervously with sweat dripping down his face asking himself.

Marcus: "Crap.. how can I learn all of this in a matter of months?"

Macario: "Simple answer to that question genius, you can't." Saying it with a grin on his face, crossing his arms while his eyes are closed. Marcus eyeballed his older brother with an irritated look on face as Macario continued.

Marcus: "Come again!?" Macario then opened his eyes and looked at him with a cocky smirk.

Macario: "Do you wanna know why? Cause you're a total retard." Marcus reacted with a growl while angrily grinding his teeth as his older brother insulted him and fiercely respond back.

Marcus: "OH YEAH!? AND WHAT ABOUT YOU? YOUR 2 LEVELS BEHIND ME AND CANT EVEN FINISH A SENTENCE!" Marcus pointed. Macario responds immediately with a solid punch to Marcus's head. Bam. "OW!"

Macario: "So what if I cant, I'm not planning to stay in Japan for long. I'd be far ahead of you if I actually studied Japanese seriously." Marcus responded Marcus: "Well how about you take this seriously!"

Marcus fires a powerful punch to Macario's face. Following after that punch, the two brothers engage in a comedic brawl with both throwing punches, kicks and insults.

"Your not half the man I am Marcus!" Macario claimed as he continues punching and kicking his brother. "You're made up of Blubber and Diabetes! I'm glad I'm not half the man you are!" Marcus said as he punched and kicked back at Macario. The passengers of the entire back part of the plane now drew their attention to the boys, some were looking afraid of the boys fighting each other, some were getting irritated for making their sleeping infants wale and cry, and some just were just entertained by watching the boys exchange punches, kicks and harsh words. Yesenia their mother couldn't believe what she was witnessing behind her assigned seat.

Yesenia: BOYS STOP YOUR FIGHTING NOW! But her two sons didn't pay any attention as they continued to spitefully hit each other. Yesenia has had enough and decided to wake up her husband Amelio from his deep sleep. Yesenia: Amelio wake up! Wake Up! Amelio gotten himself out of his snoring and noticed his boys causing a great commotion, he quickly got up from his seat extremely irritated and angrily smacked them both on their heads using his knuckles with full force! POW

Amelio: "You idiots better start getting your acts together!" Yesenia turned around her seat looking toward her two sons very vexed and wagged her finger at them and sharply stated.

Yesenia: "That's right you two! We're arriving into a new country and you boys better start behaving yourselves, the last thing your father and I want is for you two to make us look bad to the Japanese locals as we move in to live alongside them!" Amelio finished scolding his boys stating.

Amelio: "You two for now on will get along in public or I'll force you two to get along, understand!?" Amelio finished scolding his sons towering over them with his arms crossed. Macario and Marcus were on their knees with their big red bumps on their heads with sad expressions on their faces submissively bowed and said:

Marcus and Macario: "Yes Dad…. Sorry Dad…."

As the plane allowed all passengers to exit, the Alessandro Family walked out of the plane into the Narita International Airport at Terminal 2, Amelio lead his family for them to grab all of their large load of luggage. The family then walked towards the car rental service to be greeted by one of the workers wearing a cute bow. The family now has switched their English to Japanese.

Service Lady: "Good morning sir. How can we serve you today?" Amelio also greeted the worker confidently and made a request.

Amelio: "Good morning madam, I would like to buy off one of your fine vehicles!" The service lady looked confused and replied with a friendly tone and a cute smile saying.

Service Lady: "uhh…I am sorry sir but we only offer cars for rental purposes on-" Before the service lady finished her sentence, Amelio dropped a large stack of Japanese Yen on the table that caught her by surprise. Her eyes widened and she then proceeded to take and count the bills by hand. Yesenia meanwhile was preparing Marcus to carry the luggage.

Yesenia: "Marcus, can you be a sweetheart and carry both your father's luggage and mine to our brand new car?" Marcus sighed and did what his mother asked him to. "Sigh.. Sure thing mom." He stretched his arms, legs and back to prepare to carry his fathers luggage on his back, hold his mothers luggage on his right arm, while holding his own luggage on his left arm. When his father Amelio received the car key from the service lady, he signaled Marcus to follow him. "Enjoy your stay in Japan" said the service lady.

Amelio: "Come now Marcus, follow me to our precious new ride." Saying it with a cheerful and delighted tone.

Marcus: "Sure… thing…. Dad…." Marcus struggles to carry the hefty luggage outside the airport into the very back of the parking lot. Marcus breathes and sweats heavily as he tries to catch up to his cheerful dad who is happily fast pace walking himself to see the brand new car he purchased.

Amelio: "HA HA! She's a beauty! Fresh out of the car factory!" With his hands stretched out. Marcus replied to his dad from a distance behind carrying the luggage saying.

Marcus: "I'm glad...sigh...you're loving...sigh...the new...sigh...car." As Marcus meets up with his father to his new car, Marcus asked eagerly to him about the new house they were going to live.

Marcus: "Dad, I'm curious, what kind of house are we going to live in?" Marcus's father turned his body sideways happily responds to him with a genuine smile and excitement on his face, placing his hand on one of Marcus's shoulder looking at him tenderly.

Amelio: "Son, the house we're going to live is going to make us a much closer and happier family. I know that we've had it rough back in LA but after all these hard years in that tough and dreadful neighborhood, I've finally received the job promotion we need to live well here." Marcus smiles back with a smile on his face and responds.

Marcus: "I sure hope we'll become a happier family thanks to all of your hard work dad, I'll make sure to study my best at my new school and get top grades at my class!" Marcus said with a smile. Marcus proceeded to put the luggage in the back of the brand new SUV his father just bought. Marcus and his father then entered in the SUV and drove back to the airport from the parking lot to pick up Yesenia and Macario. Yesenia and Macario were amazed to see the new SUV that Amelio bought with both their mouths open with joy and were eager to experience the interior of the SUV. Yesenia went into the front passenger seat to inspect the mirrors, cup-holders, AC, music players, etc. and complimented her husband with an ecstatic tone.

Yesenia: "Wow honey you've picked a stunning new ride, *GASP* and it even has a video player for us to watch movies." Macario also added with an exited expression.

Macario: "Yeah Dad this is a sweet ride, We can take a bunch of road trips throughout Japan, to have some fun at their beaches, ride down at their ski resorts and especially to do some mountain climbing at Mt Fuji!" Amelio looks at Macario through the back mirror with a happy genuine laugh stating.

Amelio: Ahahahahaha! Sure thing Macario, I'll keep these things in mind for our future vacations together! Amelio hits the accelerator and drives his family through Koryo city, watching in awe of the vibrant atmosphere of the city passing by various stores, restaurants, movie theaters, and gaming places. Marcus thought to himself while looking outside the passenger seat window saying:

Marcus: "So this is Koryo city huh? I'll definitely enjoy my time here in Japan." Macario interrupted Marcus's thinking, and decided to poke his arm using his elbow questioning him with a teasing smirk on his face saying.

Macario: "So Marcus, do you plan on getting yourself a hot girlfriend?" Marcus caught off guard with his face getting a bit red answered back shrugging with a slight grin.

Marcus: "Perhaps. I'm sure there's plenty of cute babes I can get to know." Yesenia: well I hope you two boys get yourselves great girlfriends who you can invite for dinner sometime." The family entered into a residential area outside Koryo. Amelio joyfully brought out a controller from his pocket and said to his family.

Amelio: "Alright everyone this is our brand new home!" Amelio proceeded to stretch his hand, point it at a house, and pressed one of the buttons on it to open the gates and garage. His wife Yesenia and his sons gasped in amazement of their new home.

Yesenia: "WOW HONEY! This house is perfect for us!" With her hands on her cheeks, eyes sparkling and with an exited grin on her face. Marcus and Macario were astonished and amazed to view the house. The family rushed out of their car into their new house to see the interior. Yesenia bolted in looking into the kitchen to inspect the refrigerator, oven, sinks, cooking stove, and the kitchen counter.

Yesenia: "WEEEEE It's beautiful! I can make all sorts of delicious delights in this kitchen!" Yesenia blissfully sang and danced around the kitchen with huge smile on her face with her hands stretched out. Amelio stood not far from her being well elated that his beloved wife is loving their new kitchen and appliances. Meanwhile Marcus and Macario rushed upstairs to check out the bedrooms to claim for themeselves.

Marcus: "I call dibs on this room!" Marcus rushed to seize a nice sized bedroom that is located closest to the restroom right across it. Macario however managed to grab him by the leg from behind and cartoonishly tossed him out of the room entrance with the strength of his left arm.

Macario: "It's my room now shrimp!" Marcus lets out a scream midair and as he falls on the wooden floor. Marcus looked at Macario growling and in fumes as he gets up.

Marcus: "Now you've asked for it!" Marcus charges forward and tackles Macario down, then both of them engage in another brotherly brawl. They each exchange blows and words at each other from the plane earlier, competing over the 2nd largest bedroom in the house. Macario then had Marcus's pinned down with his hands pressed down against Marcus chest saying to him.

Macario: "This is my room now little squirt, get yourself the smaller room!" Marcus with a fired up determination in his eyes retaliates by striking Macario's stomach full force using his left knee. The impact left Macario's stomach in pure agony. "AAAWWWHH!"

Marcus: "Your new pig home is next door! Get lost!"With veins beginning to pop out from Macario's face, he stretches back with his arm with his fist tightly clenched ready to spring it to Marcus's face. Marcus sees this and mentally prepares to dodge and strike back.

Macario: "Would you like to repeat that again?" As Macario is about to punch his younger brother in the face, Marcus sees their Father towering behind Macario with a menacing stance with a boiling facial expression.

Amelio: "How many times do I have to make you boys conduct yourselves!" Macario paused and begins to sweat nervously. He slowly turns around shaking to see his father's angry face, Amelio wastes no time to tightly grab and pull Macario by his hair.

Macario: "OWWW DAD! STOP PULLING MY FREAKING HAIR!" Macario screams in pain as his father drags him out of the room. Amelio then took him into the smallest room of the house.

Amelio: "Your new room will be next door." Macario: "WHAT! COME ON DAD IM SORRY!" Marcus gave out a smug smirk to taunt Macario and waved his hand saying.

Marcus: "Bye, bye pig boy!" Amelio turned his head and gave Marcus a piercing and intimidating stare.

Amelio: "Mind your tongue Marcus!" Marcus: "Yes dad!" Marcus replied nervously smiling and sweating intensly. The family later after getting antiquated with their new home unpacked their suitcases and organized their clothing and belongings into their respective bedrooms.

For the rest of the week, Marcus and his family spent their time together shopping in the city for new clothing, new TV sets, furniture, and accessories to fill up their new house. On their 5th day of shopping in Koryo, Japan, Marcus and Macario decided to ask their father to drive his car in the city to drop them off at an arcade to have a fun time.

Marcus: "Hey Dad, can you drop us off at one of the arcades within the city? Macario and I want to have some good fun"

Amelio: "Sure thing boys, here you go." Amelio handed each Marcus and Macario 15000 Yen. "I'll pick you up later for dinner." Marcus and Macario looked with excitement and grabbed the good cash.

Marcus and Macario: "Thanks Dad!" Amelio drives by and stops at one of the Arcades for Macario to open the passenger door for the boys to move out. "See you dad!" Macario said. "Please ask Mom to make more Yakisoba Noodles and Ham Katsu on the side for dinner!" Amelio responds with a smile saying, "I sure will son!" The boys waved at his dad as he drove off home. Marcus and Macario walked into the arcade and were amazed by the lively atmosphere as it was filled with other Japanese teenagers playing all sorts of games. The brothers went up to one of the workers to exchange money for a ton of game-coins to use them whenever they want to play any game.

Macario: "This place is awesome! You wanna try this game out?" Macario pointed out on this fiery red arcade game for 2 players that was a martial art themed fighting game. Both brothers looked interested enough to try out the game. They walked towards it and played the 1st round of the game choosing their own fighting characters.

Marcus: "Best two out of three?" Macario: "Sure thing I'm gonna destroy you in both rounds!" Marcus: "Heh.We'll see about that!" The two boys looked intensely at the screen anticipating the 3-2-1 countdown. FIGHT! Marcus and Macario moved their joysticks and pressed buttons of the controls battling each other in the game trying to get a victory over each other. Macario's fighting character lands a finishing blow against Marcus's fighting character declaring him the winner of the 1st round!

Marcus: "Pfft that was a fluke!" Macario: "Get owned you scrub!" When the second round started, Marcus attacked as soon as he could and unknowingly pressed a combo set that had him win the second round without giving Macario a chance to react. Macario: "WHAT!? HOW!?" Marcus taunts Macario saying, Marcus: "Told you that was a fluke, I own you!" Macario: "tch I'll make you eat those words for just saying that!"

Both brothers ready their fingers as the last round commences. When the countdown was finished. They equally pressed and meshed the control buttons with great speed and intensity to the point were both began to sweat profusely. Macario: "Your stupid combos wont work on me anymore!" Marcus: "How about a spam of cheap shots?!" Marcus kept using high and low kicks to corner Macario's fighting character. But Macario responds by dodging and throwing mass amounts of punching against Marcus's fighting character forcing Marcus to make his character block all the hits.

Macario: "Now you die!" Marcus: "AAH CRAPP!" Macario dishes out his last devastating attack on Marcus's character. His characters health bar went significantly down, when the devastating attack was over, both brothers noticed that Marcus's characters had only one health left. Macario: "IMPOSSIBLE!" Marcus: "I'M STILL ALIVE!" Marcus proceeded to unleash his characters fatal combo and took out the remainder of Macario's characters health down. Macario: "THATS A LOAD OF CRAP!" Macario expressed with both his hands pressing against his head, scratching his hair. Marcus taunts Macario stating, Marcus: "I told you already, I own you!" Macario: "I demand a rematch!" Macario angrily pointed his finger at Marcus desiring revenge.

Marcus and Macario played more rounds against each other, after half an hour Macario was saltier than before for losing to Marcus without winning a single round. Macario decided to cool himself down. Macario: "I'm gonna get a snack from the vending machines, just wait here!" Macario proceeded to walk away from Marcus and waited in a line to buy himself noodle bowls. As Marcus patiently waited, a person wearing a fiery phoenix streetwear jacket approached him with a curious smile on his face.

Hiroto: "Whats up new guy! I'm hiroto, where'd you come from?" Marcus responded to the blonde hair red eyed stranger the best he could with his Japanese. Marcus: "Hello there, I'm Marcus, I'm from America, nice to meet you." Marcus's polite display created an awkward and silent moment. Hiroto broke the awkwardness by asking him to play a game with him.

Hiroto: "Yeah.. nice to meet you too.." Hiroto gave Marcus his hand for him for a handshake. Marcus saw that Hiroto can be potentially his first friend in Japan, gave Hiroto the handshake. "I watched you play this fighting game with that other guy, are you any good?" "Yeah that was my brother who I kept thrashing. He seriously sucks at it." Hiroto points his thumb to himself asking Marcus. "How would you like to try your skills against me for 1 round? I'm far more of a challenge than he is." Marcus gladly accepts Hiroto's challenge, "sure thing lets see how challenging you are Hiroto." When Marcus and Hiroto insert their coins and started to chose their characters. They both eye balled each other ready to start the game.

Hiroto: "You better be ready Marcus, your gonna die." Marcus replied with a smirk on his face, "Keep wishing Hiroto, I won't go down that easily." FIGHT! Marcus and Hiroto began fighting with their own respective characters. Marcus was already sweating while struggling to keep his character's health bar from getting drained. Hiroto on the other hand was very relaxed and was simply toying with Marcus. PLAYER 2 WINS.

Hiroto: "Wow you didn't even last 10 seconds." Marcus was surprised and overwhelmed how he lost in such a short span of time, he looked at Hiroto intensely. "I want a rematch!" Hiroto was amused by Marcus's desire for payback. "Teheheh sure but don't start crying when I thrash you again." Marcus confidently refutes; "Don't get cocky!" The two teens then began pressing their buttons again. Marcus was already beginning to hold his own slightly better against Hiroto the second time. But he was still far out of his league. PLAYER 2 WINS.

Marcus: "..Well...I...guess you won again." Marcus this time lost a bit of his confidence getting thrashed again by barely lasting 10 seconds.

Hiroto: "You'll learn eventually." A young teenage girl with a long pigtail style hair and dress suddenly approached Hiroto from behind with an angry pout on her face. "Hiroto! Where were have you been?!" Hiroto became nervous with sweat dripping from his face. Marcus was caught off guard and asked Hiroto with his thumb pointing at her.

Marcus: "Eh? Who's that chick behind you?" The girl behind then spoke out to answer Marcus's question. "I'm his precious girlfriend and future wife! And you were supposed to meet me at the mall 6 hours earlier! What are you doing playing games with this loser!?" Hiroto turned around and told her in a blunt tone.

Hiroto: "Didn't you get my text message? I told you we were over!" The pigtail girl was in a shocked state while Marcus's eyes began to pop out at what he is witnessing. The pigtail girl began to tear up and slapped Hiroto across the face. "WAAAA! After all nice things I've done for you!? Your the biggest and most heartless jerk I've ever met!" Hiroto now has a huge hand mark on his face while Marcus flinched having to witness Hiroto's now ex-girlfriend dishing out such a devastating and thunderous slap. The pigtail girl turned with tears streaming down her face to run away from the gaming arcade crying saying "You're the absolute worst Hiroto! Huhuhuhuh!"

Hiroto: "Yeah.. Sorry you had to see that. Having a girlfriend can be overwhelming sometimes." Marcus smiled at him, chuckled and shrugged decided to go on with what he said.

Marcus: "Yeah, I can definitely see your point". Hiroto then told Marcus. "Hey listen, I have to be somewhere right now. I'll see you around!" Hiroto and Marcus smiled, dabbed and departed to their own ways. Macario finally comes back with 10 noodle bowls that he had to wait from the long line.

Macario: "Yo bro, you want to play other games after these noodles?" Marcus replies with a slight smile on his face. "Sure thing big bro. But remember to save up some room for moms dinner, we've only got 2 hours left before dad picks us up." Macario and Marcus continued to enjoy themselves at the arcade until the sky got dark. Their father picked them up from the arcade and drove them back home. As they walked into their home, Amelio and the boys began to notice and enjoy the irresistable smell of Yakisoba noodles and Ham Katsu.

Amelio, Macario, Marcus: "We're home!" Yesenia replied cheerfully.

Yesenia: "Welcome home! Any of you big boys hungry?" Yesenia leads her hand to the dinner table at the dining room. The smell of Yakisoba noodles and Ham Katsu was too much for the 3 to stand by. The family got into their dining table, said cheers, and gorged themselves. After their dinner session, Marcus went to his room to further study and practice his Japanese to prepare himself for Koryo High School 3 months from now.

Day 6: The family was in one of the malls in Koryo enjoying themselves together. Yesenia especially was having a great time by getting her new curved-in ends hair. Amelio saw her new makeover and his eyes were amazed and he instantly fell in love with his wife's new hairstyle.

Amelio: "OH Honey you look phenomenal!" Amelio with hearts on his eyes went to Yesenia with arms stretched out in adoration of her new look. Marcus and Macario felt slightly embarrassed to look at them from a near distance. Yesenia giggles as Amelio holds her by the waist closer to him while the brothers eye balled and conversed with each other.

Macario: "I wonder if we're gonna end up doing stuff like that to our wives."Marcus replied saying. "I bet we will someday. It's only a matter of time." Yesenia then made an announcement to the whole family.

Yesenia: "Good news everyone! I've applied to one of the best restaurants in the city and they happily accepted me in!" The family were delighted to hear the news.

Marcus: "Wow mom congratulations!" Macario also added. "With your expertise chef skills I'm sure you will make a great chef!"

Yesenia: "Not just any chef, I'll be the head chef of the kitchen!" Amelio and his sons eyes popped out surprised and were proud that she secured herself such a high position at her new job.

Amelio: "I'll definitely visit to try out every meal on the menu cooked by my sweet head chef!" Amelio puts his arm around Yesenia's waist and gave her multiple kisses on her cheeks. Marcus and Macario with their faces red continued to feel embarrassed with Macario looking away scratching his head while Marcus looks the other way with his hand pressed against his head trying to ignore his parents romantic moment. Marcus then asked his dad a question to end his parent's mushy moment.

Marcus: "Bye the way dad, how was your new job?" Amelio responds confidently. "I'm glad you asked son. I'm already in the middle of helping my team create a better cyber security system that will be quicker to track down organized criminals in every single way. They won't be hiding in their information and communications in their computers anymore nor will they be dwelling in their hiding places for long once I finish the new software."

Macario: "I'm sure governments would pay a pretty penny to buy your new software dad." "And they will." Amelio said. The family minutes later walked out of the mall at the parking lot during the night sky on their way to their car. But a group 7 thugs spotted them and proceeded to stalk them from a distance behind. As the family walked further, they've all noticed these questionable individuals following them to their car. Yesenia grabbed onto Amelio's arm getting nervous while Macario and Marcus clenched their fists eyeballing them not knowing exactly what their intending to do next. Amelio whispered to his wife and kids telling them to run to the car as fast as possible.

Amelio: "Boys, escort your mother to the car and lock the doors. Yesenia I need you to call the police as soon as you get in and don't get out of the car for any reason. Understand?" They all agree and did as he told them. The thugs increased their walking pace and begin to catch up to them with wicked grins on their faces and with predatory eyes ready to pounce on their prey.

Akihiro thug 1: "Lets surround them before they get any chance to get in their car."

Akihiro thug 2: "We'll then drag them in the alley to have some real fun with them." The thugs chuckled with each other as they began to close in further on the family.

Amelio: "Yesenia run for it!" Yesenia and the boys ran to the car while Amelio brought out his brass knuckles from his jacket pocket and turned to the gang in a defensive posture. The gang were caught off guard yet were still delighted to see Amelio to be the only one standing against the 7 of them.

Amelio: "I don't know who you people are but I'm warning you all right now." Amelio brings his fist up to show them his brass knuckles. "Leave my family alone!" The thugs began making smug remarks.

Akihiro thug 1: "So what if you have brass knuckles tough guy! We've got you outnumbered and once were done with you, we will get to your precious wife and kids and have ourselves a fun time with them too." Amelio grew furious hearing this and lunged forward with his brass knuckled fist into the thugs face. The thug fell on the concrete floor with his teeth flying everywhere.

Amelio: "Not over my dead body!" Yesenia and her sons got in the car and locked the doors and began calling the police through her cell phone while frantically trying to look for the car keys in her purse to start the car. Marcus and Macario looked outside of their car windows witnessing their father defending themselves against the thugs. But 4 of the thugs saw that they were trying to escape and decided to rush towards their car as Yesenia unexpectedly dropped her purse on the car floor. Macario and Marcus looked and nodded at each other and decided to get out of the car to hold the thugs off.

Macario: "Heads up Marcus! 4 of them are coming straight toward us!" Marcus readied himself for 2 of the thugs lunging forward against him. Macario in the other had already punched one of them down on the ground and is grappling with the other.

Marcus: "Come on! Who wants to get knocked down!?" one of the thugs replied attacking with his right fist.

Akihiro thug 3: "I do!" Marcus dodges the first strike and gets the taller thug with with three hard punches on his face. The other thug grabs Marcus from behind and held him back for the other thug to retaliate with his punches. Marcus struggles as he's trying to get out of his hold. "Let go of me!" Marcus demanded!

Akihiro thug 3: "I'm gonna make you bleed kid!" The thug then stroked Marcus with a heavy punch to his face 3 times. The thug decided to take out a knife for a good stab. Marcus saw the knife and readied himself as he charged with the knife, when the thug began to attempt his stab, Marcus kicked the other thugs shin and forcefully leaned back with all his might with the knife cutting up his chest. Marcus retaliates with a firm kick to the thugs chest knocking back to the concrete floor. Macario meanwhile was throwing his fists at the thug he was grappling with and knocked him out making the thug bleed out from his face.

Macario: "You'll regret messing with our family!" Macario then focuses his attention to the other thug who got back up and brought out his pocket knife out from his pocket. "Come at me with that I dare you!" Macario charges at the thug throwing his left fist, the thug dodges and slashes his knife at Macario's face. Macario sees it and tries to dodge it. The knife manages to get a long cut on Macario's left cheek.

Meanwhile during the chaos occurring outside the car. Yesenia is doing her best to ignore the commotion that is happening outside the car with her body shaking in fear. She dialed the police number and was frantically begging for the Police to come to their location for help.

Yesenia: Help Police! Police! My family and I are under attack! There's a mob of hooligans attacking us! They have weapons with them and are trying to rob us! Amelio knocks out the last thug in his way breaking the thugs nose. The ruthless thug hit his head first on the pavement and didn't get back up again. But then Amelio looks on and sees his sons defending themselves while his wife is calling the police in their family car with tears pouring down her cheeks.

Amelio: "I coming kids!" Amelio runs to his family ready to take on the 3 remaining thugs who are harming his family. With an intense anger on his face he attacks the thug who is holding Marcus down.

Amelio: "Get off my son!" Amelio charged and punched the thug from behind knocking him out of commission. Amelio then focused on the other thug who was trying to stab Marcus with his knife unleashing a barrage of punches with his blood stained brass knuckles to the thugs face, chest, and ribs. Meanwhile one of the thugs who was beaten down stealth fully took out his cell phone and called for help.

Akihiro thug 4: Boss they've gotten us beaten down and they're going to get away. The thug was scorned on the other line for their incompetence and hung up on him. Amelio on the other side was ensuring his sons safety.

Amelio: "Are you alright Marcus? "Marcus replies relieved with a couple of bruises on his face with his hand covering the cut on his chest. "I'm alright Dad. Thanks for the help." Amelio turns to his older brother checking on him. "What about you Macario anything serious?" Macario just finished knocking out a thug with his shirt ruined with knife cuts and with a long scar on his left cheek. "I'll be alright. Mom just finished calling the police and they will be on their way." Before anything else happens, A person with a white tuxedo casually walked in with annoyed look on his face, with 2 more men on each side walking behind him.

Akihiro: "You worms are an absolute disappointment." Akihiro kicked one his own thugs lying on the concrete floor with immense leg strength that sent the thug flying straight towards Macario knocking him down on the ground. Amelio, Marcus and Yesenia are alerted by Akihiro's strength. "If you worthless pieces of trash can't get the job done, then I'll do it myself." Akihiro dashed forward and knocked out Amelio out with a single punch and performed a devastating Yoko Keague kick on Marcus's chin before Marcus has anytime to react. Akihiro then orders his men.

Akihiro: "Get the woman out of the car and drag these parasites to my favorite alley. I'll be shopping for some fine wine in the meantime." The 4 thugs with Akihiro tied and dragged the unconscious bodies of Marcus, Amelio, and Macario. The 4th thug punched the passenger window to forcefully drag, gagged, and tied Yesenia out of the car. As Yesenia tried to resist by screaming and kicking her legs, one of the thugs knocked her unconscious by hitting her at the back of her head. They were carried away from the mall parking lot and into a black van, meanwhile Akihiro was walking out of the mall with an expensive wine bottle with a sadistic exited smile on his face. "Ah yes this wine definitely fits the theme of whats about to take place." Akihiro is exited to taste the blood moon wine that he recently bought for 500,000Yen. Akihiro then went into the van and checked on the Alessandro family comparing each of their identities to snap photos he has of them. "Ah yes that's them alright, I'll take great pleasure of killing them myself. Now drive them to my favorite alley and park the car 6 blocks away from it." Akihiro ordered.

"But sir what about the rest of them laying on the floor?" One of the thugs asked. "Forget them, they deserve to rot in prison as punishment for their incompetence!" The thugs then drove to Akihiro's favorite alley way before they bother questioning further. Akihiro then ordered his men to drag their unconscious bodies to the alley and layed them against one of the walls. "Wake them up" Akihiro ordered. The thugs then showered the family with cold water to wake them. When the family saw where they were, they all became alerted and scared.

Akihiro: "I'm impressed that parasites like you can put up a fight. But your existence is a threat to our way of life. Therefore you leave me no choice but to kill you." Amelio spoke out against him saying.

"Why are you doing this!? What has my family and I ever done you wrong!?" Akihiro got quickly annoyed and gave Amelio a vile angry stare. "Since when did I ever allow you to talk!?" One of the thugs proceeded to pull out a gun and handed it to Akihiro. "I'll enjoy splattering your brain first old man."

Marcus: "DAD NOO!" One of the other thugs hit Marcus on the side of his head with a bat to shut him up. The other thugs chuckled knowing whats going to happen next. Macario struggles to get off from his restraints, Yesenia is beginning to scream, shake and tear up in sheer terror of seeing Akihiro having a gun in his hand with the intent to use it to kill her beloved husband. Akihiro proceeds to grab Amelio by the back of his shirt and pulls him into the middle of the alley and decides to press the gun barrel on Amelio's head. "I'm going to take sweet delight in seeing you splatter all over the floor, you parasite." Amelio then looked onto his wife and kids with a sad and grieved expression on his face with tears swelling in his eyes knowing that this was going to be his family's fate after he dies. "I'm sorry... for bringing you here." Amelio sadly stated sobbing. BOOM! After Akihiro pulls the trigger and killed Amelio. Macario, Marcus, and Yesenia led out a huge cry of great pain and anguish. Macario tried to leap towards Akihiro to kick the gun out of his hand. But 2 of the 4 thugs held him down and began to mercilessly beat him with clubs and kick his body on the ground. Marcus meanwhile was trying to untie himself without anyone noticing with tears streamed down his face. "Hahahahahahaha I just love seeing you worthless worms struggle in vain." Akihiro points his gun and fires one shot at Macario's back to paralyze him. Yesenia's tears of terror has filled her face. As she speaks through her thoughts.

Yesenia: My husband… My Sons…. Why is this happening to us!? Akihiro then fired a second shot through Macario's heart. Macario turned his head with the remainder of his strength to the side looking at his Mother and Marcus with saying his last words in a soft and sad tone. "Goodbye…" Akihiro shoots his last shot on Macario's head. "Ah Yes. Good riddance! Now its the woman's turn." Akihiro proclaimed excitingly. The memories of Marcus being with his family is flashing before his eyes. He's seething with rage and pouring more of his tears in grave anguish. Marcus then successfully untied himself from his restraints.

Marcus: "I'LL KILL YOU!" Marcus leaned and kicked Akihiro's gun out of his hand, the gun flew, slid into the streets and fell into the sewers. Marcus then tried to land one punch on Akihiro's face, but the 4 thugs tackled Marcus and held him down. Akihiro was surprised that Marcus got himself out of his restraints, but he was also irritated at the fact he was being challenged by someone he considered inferior to him.

Akihiro: "You four take this disgusting creature away, tie him up good this time and throw him into the van. I'll have my fun with him after I deal with his mother." Marcus struggled as he was being taken away from his mother. "YOU WONT GET AWAY WITH THIS!" Marcus Screamed. The thugs dragged Marcus out of the alley and walked to the van. Akihiro on the other hand turned to Marcus's mother and gave a sickening perverted smile and slowly walked towards her. He then gets close and whispers to her ears telling her. "We're gonna have a pleasurable night my lady." He then licked his lips and pulled out another gun from his tuxedo and slowly pointed it at Yesenia. "But first lets have some fun." Akihiro then began to caress Yesenia's legs. Her face was in sheer terror, Yesenia then closed her eyes saying to herself "I wish I was never born."

Meanwhile Marcus continued to earnestly struggle to get himself free. The thugs continued to beat Marcus down but the more he got beaten, the more he resisted. They were 3 blocks away from the murder alley and 3 blocks from the Van that they were leading Marcus into. The thugs were beginning to lose their grip and patience with Marcus.

Akihiro Thug 5: "You better be staying still kid or we'll make your death worse than what our master did to your family." Marcus then heard a gunshot from where his deceased family were and knew his mother has been killed. Marcus was also infuriated to hear this threat made against him. Marcus then boldly made a promise against the thugs and Akihiro in retaliation.

Marcus: "No.. Someday… I will avenge my family…. AND I'LL MAKE YOU ALL SUFFER!" Marcus uses all his strength he had left and slid a hard kick to one of the thugs in the back of his head knocking him unconscious. Marcus then took this opportunity and freed himself from the 3 remaining thugs and ran away as fast as he could.

Akihiro Thug 6: "Chase after him!" Marcus ran through blocks and got lost in a crowd of people in another shopping center, he then climbed up a fence to lose them. The thugs were already beginning to panic trying to find Marcus. Quick lets split up, kill him as soon as you find him! The thugs spit up and searched throughout the blocks to see if they could find Marcus before Akihiro finds out they've lost him. Marcus was getting tired from running and doesn't have much energy left to keep on going. His eyes are constantly looking left and right, up and down, looking for a place to hide. He then found a trash bin big enough to hide himself inside. Marcus quickly lifted up the cap and hid himself before anyone notices. Meanwhile Akihiro was casually walking to the van where he told his men to throw Marcus in for him to torture to death later on.

Akihiro: "That woman was such a delight. Luckily for me I have a spare gun in my tuxedo. But now I'm going to make that little bug suffer for defying me. I'll tie and force him to watch me feed his insides to my dogs. The look on his face would be priceless." As Akihiro approached closer to the van, he spots an unconscious body of one of his men. "What!? How did he?" Akihiro frantically took out his cell phone and called his men. "You incompetent retards better pick up your phones!" As soon as one of his men answered the phone Akihiro asked his men.

Akihiro: "Where is that maggot!? Don't tell me you lost it!" Akihiro's men apologized to him and promised to find Marcus before the Police get to the scene. But Akihiro saw police cars on their way at his direction and he jumps on top of one of the buildings 15 stories high with great speed to avoid detection. Akihiro has also seen police cars driving by having the 7 thugs from the parking lot on the back of their cars in custody. "Just recover the bodies and put them into the van before they find out! I'll look for the maggot myself!" Akihiro dashed and went around the Koryo city area to look for clues. All he found on his quest was a blood drop trail leading to a fence that had a piece of Marcus's black shirt that tore off from the fence that he climbed earlier in his attempt to escape. He jumped the fence and continued looking for him "Curses! Where did he go!? I can sense he's nearby I just know it!" He was inching closer to the trash bin Marcus was hiding in. Akihiro then decided to put his hand on the trash bin to lift it up and see if Marcus was hiding in there. Just then he saw 4 more police cars arriving to patrol the streets. Akihiro had no choice but to abandon his search for Marcus. "I guess I'll have to finish the job some other night! I'll find that maggot and enjoy tearing him apart" Akihiro jumped the fence again and ran away with lighting speed avoiding the police from detecting him.

Marcus: "That was too close for comfort! If he had found me I would have been a dead man." Marcus nervously thought to himself. Marcus stayed and slept in the trash bin until the sun rose up. He then got out of the trash bin with some dirt on him. "What should I do now? I've lost my family to a couple of scumbags and to their degenerate leader! I can't let them get away with what they've done to them!" Marcus began to limp on to look for the nearest hospital to get himself healed and report to the police on what happened to him the night before. Marcus limped in the Koryo streets with grief, pain, sorrow, anger, hatred and a burning desire for vengeance in his heart. Marcus gnashed his teeth, turned his eyes to wrath, and tightly clenched his fists. "If I meet that ruthless degenerate again, I'll kill him with my own hands!" He now faces an uncertain future that lies ahead of him in a country he doesn't well know and with nobody to turn to for help as he goes on his quest to avenge his deceased family.
