Ch. 11
It has been three day's since Heathcliff asked me to lead this raid. And this was the day it would all go down. I finished my message to Heathcliff, adding a "good luck" to the end. Today, the KoB was going to attempt to take the seventy fifth floor.
Standing up, I looked around at the men who were sitting in their party groups talking. Moving around, I told them quietly to get ready. The time had come.
A group of red player's were approaching. This was it. What was left after the last raid was standing right infront of us. We could wipe out the dirty name of Laughing Coffin today. As the group passed directly below us, I made the signal. Instantly, the KoB raid group dropped down, surrounding the LC players. I called out to the the panicking group.
"If you wish to live, surrender. Otherwise, prepare to die."
"If you wish to take us, you must take our lives!" one of the red players screeched.
"If that is case, then that is what will happen." I replied. The group was unnerved by my simple answer. As I planned them to be. Drawing my sword, I gave them one last warning.
"Surrender or die." As none of them moved, I said the next command.
"Attack." Instantly, the KoB raid group began to clash with the tight ball of LC. One of the LC members ran at me. I jumped to the side, cutting his throat as he ran past. With a burst, he was no more. This happened twice before I noticed that one of the LC members had killed two of my own. I ran over to take him out.
"Well well, look who came to save his men. But, can you save yourself?" With that, he attacked. We crossed blades for more than a minute. Then disaster struck. A fallen LC member fell backwards into me, causing me to lose my balance. The man facing me grinned, thinking that is was over. He swung a horizontal attack. A grabbed my sword in a reverse grip and activated a skill, then my unique skill. Sparks flew from the two swords upon impact. Growling, the LC member attacked again. I had to use my skill twice more. Then the mob attacked me. As I turned to defend myself, the LC member knocked my sword out of my hand. The mob began it's attack. I heard Akira scream.
Author's Note: Sorry that this chapter is so short, but things are starting to get late on my end. And I hope I don't kill you all with the cliffhanger. Bye!
