Chapter 22: Garuda VS Schubert, Tekken Style

Garuda charges Schubert with his bare hands as the latter begins to wield his handgun as both are fighting for the gun that he was holding as it pulls the trigger and shoot upwards. Garuda manages to disarm him as he knocks him with one punch in a little distance. With the song "Healing Vision (Angelic Mix)" has been played, Schubert finally stands up to fight Garuda as the latter goes in a fighting stance. Both continues to fight in a unarmed combat which Disco became dismayed to see them fighting.

"My goodness... I never thought Schubert plans to kill me on purpose..." Disco said sadly.

"Go beat him, grandfather... I'm counting on you!" Rage said cheering on his grandfather.

Garuda then knocks Schubert with a punch to the face as the latter tackles him and attempts to get his handgun. Garuda then stops him from attempting as their fight goes on a no holds barred. Beating the crap out of each other with their fighting moves, Schubert ends up being defeated by him as he was finally knocked down with one punch to the face.

"Ugh...! I can't believe that I was defeated by you! I'm not gonna stop if I kill my own target!" Schubert grunted while gritting his teeth as Garuda angrily mad to his actions.

"Your actions are far from over, Schubert. If ya dare to hurt my friend right here then I'm gonna knock ya down for the count?"

"Disco... We tried to keep that secret from you? But, how did you know that Reinrich attempts to kill you?" Rage asked angrily to him as Alice remembers when Krueger's men attempts to kill her during the 5th competition.

"It was just like when these guys who attempted to kill me during the 5th Competition. I feel so distressed about this."

"I cannot say this to you, Rage. But I recognized him in the past 10 years by the time I meet your grandfather along the way." Disco said and becomes panicked. "But I could not believe that this fellow businessman has his motives to kill me. I hate if I get killed by him."

Schubert then tackles Garuda as the latter counters him by grappling him down and attempts to break his arm, hurting him.

"UWAHHH!? My arm...?"

"You surely want me to get rid of ya, eh? I think I'm gonna suffer ya with my own two hands?"

"Uh... Garuda, please that's enough... you're trying to hurt him any further." Disco said stopping him. "I considered that you can beat him for the count. You overpowered him with your beating."

"Don't be unpredictable, Disco?! This guy attempts to kill ya? Now stop sayin' this to me?" Garuda said angrily scolds him as he finally let him go as Disco confronts Schubert.

"I had no idea that you're attempting to kill me, Mr. Schubert, Why?"

"You don't even understand that, Disco? After your refusal for the taking, I actually have plans to kill you in this rate."

"I have reasons why I refused your offer because I realized that you were pretending as one of my colleagues. That's when I became a manager in my time after I befriended Garuda back in New York." Disco said while raising his brow as it changes back into the past 10 years ago.

Flashback:

10 years ago, Disco is later seen talking to Garuda when they first met while he's being the manager in his own business company as the latter leaves the scene. Therefore Schubert and his men are here to see him which he tries make offer to him into joining to his cause which makes the latter decided to refuse. After Schubert and his men leave, Disco senses something sinister within Schubert.

"That time when you try to make amends with me about our business. I was confused for a moment you came here to see me." Disco explained. "When I saw you in the window, I can hear what you were talking to your men about my refusal and I realized that you are just pretend that you're a businessman and now have hidden agendas to deal against me. After you left in that scene, I ask Garuda about you and your men came here to see me and I finally discovered of what Garuda has told me that you kill many businessmen in your travels to suit your bargain."

Flashback over:

"Damn you, you actually know my motives all along? And now I'm going to kill you?!" Schubert angrily mad to Disco's words as the latter states.

"Your actions are much worser than every other people that I've met. I shouldn't trust you from the very beginning if you know what I mean?"

"Why you!" Schubert tries to knock him down only to be tackled by Garuda who continues to fight him as they brawl continuously as he knocks him down in a little distance with one punch.

"It's all right, Disco. You tell him the whole thing." Garuda stated which he noticed Schubert was unconscious after he beats him down in a bloody pulp.

"Thanks, Garuda..."

"I'm glad you tell him about how brave you are, Disco." Rage said amused to his actions.

"Never thought the dance king would say that?" Izam said amusing as Disco smiles.

Schubert managed to crawl while they are still talking as he gets his handgun and tries to stand up to his weak state as he angrily states.

"This is my own plan...and my mission... I have... to kill my...target?"

Garuda then noticed Schubert is still standing but tries to kill Disco with his handgun as they noticed him which he tackles Disco to the ground.

"Disco, WATCH OUT!"

Schubert finally pulls the trigger with his handgun and the gunshot can be heard.
