Chapter 6
"You always know how to find a way to get some problems, don't you Wojciechowski?" the man in the hood and cloak said. "You even could find famous Yatsu Kuro."
"You're just in time Mystic." the psychiatric said to the man in the cloak. "Gdzie1… Where's your partner by the way?"
"He will join me a bit later." he merely answered him. "The first thing that is important to me is, these kids." he pointed at the girl who was standing with her commander.
"Igarasi." the man whispered to his subordinate, "Take Moritani and get away of here immediately."
"But commander isn't it a reckless act?" she asked him, "You won't deal with three of them."
The face of Kuro became strained; he knew that it will be difficult for him to fight three opponents at the same time. However he didn't want to put in jeopardy the lives of his subordinates, then he repeated again, calmly but still strained, "Do it."
"You two." Mystic turned to his comrades, "Don't let them get away." both of them nodded, and quickly rushed to the girl, while the mysterious one chose her commander as his target.
The girl tried her best fighting those two persons, but still her powers were not enough to defeat them the person with flame abilities attacked her quickly and ruthless, not giving even a little chance to attack him back. And it was easy to Wojciechowski to find a moment to attack the girl. He suddenly appeared behind her and quickly grabbed her arm and in no time she fell onto the roof powerless, even unable to move. The man with the mask grabbed the boy who still was unconscious, and Wojciechowski took the girl.
"O MÓJ BOŻE2." the psychiatric mumbled, "I'm not created for such kind of work."
"Don't worry, you'll used to it soon." the man with the mask chuckled. "Are we going?!" then he shouted to the man in the cloak and the hood, who was fighting the bald hunter.
'Damn it!' the bald hunter thought, 'I mustn't let them get these kids!' Kuro jumped over the Mystic, and rush at full speed to the Polish hoping to save his subordinates. However a strong puff of wind stopped him again.
"Didn't I tell that you're my opponent?" the man asked Yatsu Kuro with a smirk provoking him. "Go." he merely ordered them, and both of them with nods left the place of battle.
"I'll tell you that all your attempts to save them will be useless." the man in the hood said.
Kuro kept silence and attacked him again, his speed and strength were incredibly high, he was attacking his opponent quickly and mercilessly, but Mystic's speed was high too, so it was easy for him to dodge his attacks. Kuro started to understand that the man didn't want to fight him, and just ate up the clock. So he decided to ask him.
"Do you give the time to your friends to retreat?"
"Maybe." he said mysteriously, "Maybe not."
"Are you from "The Third Law", aren't you?" the man decided to ask again.
"Yes." he merely responded.
"Are you the ones who kidnapped all those innocents?"
"Well, this information is keeping in secret, so I can't tell you this." the man chuckled.
'It sees that they're not involved in it, or they're just helping to someone.' the man thought, 'Well this will wait for a while. The most interesting thing is in defeating this guy. It will be difficult to get him with my battle style.' he was continuing his ponders. 'However…' he put his hand in his bag which was on his belt on his back, and took out something out of there. He quickly threw them and when they touched the surface of the roof a big amount of smoke appeared there.
'Smoke canisters?'' Mystic thought, and he felt something strange behind him, and his instincts didn't fail him he could see his opponent who was about to pierce his heck. Mystic decided not to dodge this lunge, to blades slid in to his hands and he quickly blocked the attack.
'So, he has finally showed his weapon.' Kuro thought, he was blind but still recognized that the person was using two short blades. 'Does he want to show me all his potential?' They started to clash with their blades, none of sides wanted to loose or especially to give up. Yatsu was stronger than the man in the hood; however the man in the hood was a bit faster so he tried not to block all attacks of blind hunter, but to dodge them.
'This smoke.' the man thought irritably. He squeezed the hilt of his blade with his teeth and with a free hand released another puff of the wind, but stronger than the previous ones. I allowed dispelling all smoke from the roof. And when the visibility was restored he attacked the man again, but this time he could get him, Mystic left a small scratch on his cheek.
"You're a strong fighter." Yatsu Kuro admitted and praised his enemy, "I think you're stronger than those two together."
"Thank you for your praise mister Yatsu." the man theatrically said, like he was wondered, "Well I think you've already received our dossiers, so I think there's no need to be too mysterious. Wojciechowski is not a good fighter, but still his mental abilities compensated it, and with another partner he becomes a dangerous opponent." he stopped for a while and then dashed to the blind hunter, and their blades clashed again. The man in the cloak quickly stroke Yatsu Kuro at his stomach and then pierced his arm with his blade, and quickly jumped away from the blind hunter.
"You've slowed down a bit." Mystic chuckled, but still he didn't try to provoke his opponent.
Kuro pulled out the blade from his arm and even a minute hasn't pass like the wound disappeared and there was no sign of it.
"So it's your famous regenerating ability, fascinating." The man was wondered, but still not impressed from seeing. "Listen, we recruiting new members now, and it would be good if you join us. You're strong, skillful you have perfect abilities, and you'll fit perfectly in our organization."
The blind man smirked at the offer of his enemy, "Sorry not interested." And decided to make a new line of strikes, this time his speed was increased and it was a bit more difficult to Mystic to dodge them, so he started to parry them. Kuro decided to make a feint, he attacked with his blade, and at the same time he was ready to hit the enemy with his leg. Like Yatsu thought the man protected himself with his blade, and it gave a chance to Kuro to hit Mystic at his stomach, the man flew off for a good distance, but somehow, he could land onto his knees. Yatsu didn't lose his time and was about to give him another strike, but with his blade this time.
'What? He doesn't move.' Yatsu thought as he heard and noticed nothing suspicious on his way to his opponent. But some obstacle appeared on his way, and it met his blade.
"Did you find him strong for yourself?" the appeared man asked Mystic, who has already got up on his legs. "It seems like he bit you thoroughly."
"Nothing special." Mystic said shaking himself. "I saw that you're coming, so I thought it's not too important to move quickly."
"It's nice to see you again Yatsu Kuro…"the newcomer said with a strange acrimony in his voice. "Did you miss me?"
Kuro's face became strained, but he could answer nothing as the newcomer pushed him off with his halberd.
"It can't be…" Kuro stumbled like he saw a ghost. "How you can still be alive?" he said to the man who pushed him off. The man was wearing an armor which closed all parts of his body. And in right hand it was possible to see a massive halberd.
"Amused Kuro?" the armored man asked Kuro with the same acrimony in his voice.
"You were killed." the man still was surprised, "I killed you personally."
"Well I'd say you almost killed me." the man said putting his hand on his chest and continued, "By the way how do you like the present I gave you?" he said pointing with his halberd at the face of the blind hunter.
"Do you mean my eyes…" he said and then added, "Miyata Ioshioto." he added then, "As you can see, I studied how to live without them." he smirked, "And now I can see more than other sighted persons."
"It's not the result I wanted to know, and then this time I'll chop your hand and legs off." Miyata said smirking. Then he jumped swinging with his halberd and when he was about to reach the surface of the roof he made a strong lunge with it. The blind hunter quickly dodged the attack, as it was reckless to block it. "Good reaction." Miyata admitted getting up on his legs. It was possible to see the there was a lot of scratches after his attack. "Mystic!" he turned to the man in the cloak and the hood, "I'll take him myself, if something goes wrong you can join the battle."
"As you wish." the man said to his companion in the armor.
Miyata grabbed his weapon with two hands and rushed to Kuro. He attacked with brute force, Yatsu decided to dodge all attacks of his opponent and find a moment, when he will open himself. However it was difficult for blind hunter to find this moment, the man used the helve of halberd too. But suddenly Kuro decided to slow his opponent a bit, when Miyata attack with the helve of his halberd again, Kuro blocked it with his leg and then he gave to the man in armor another strike at the chest, with his fist. Miyata just shook slightly, but it wasn't enough to make serious damage, so he decided to pierce his blade into his neck now. But Miyata quickly grabbed the arm of his opponent and kicked him at his stomach and then quickly swung with the halberd leaving a big wound onto the chest of his opponent, however Yatsu didn't fall.
"You've become stronger Miyata." Kuro said chuckling, as his wound started to work tight. "You even became faster."
"Well the same can be said about you." Miyata smirked and then he attacked Kuro again.
'Won't this one really attack me?' Yatsu Kuro thought, 'Together I think they will be able to defeat me.' he parried another attack and continued to think, 'Is he in their organization?' Kuro was interested. However, when they were about to clash their weapons again all of them heard a noise and then something hit the roof, they were fighting on. 'What the…' Kuro and Miyata thought at the same time. Mystic was surprised too. Then they heard the same noise and they turned their heads and this time they saw a gleam, which immediately hit the place where Miyata landed.
'A reinforcements?' Mystic thought, and then he saw another gleam from another angle. And this one was aimed at him, he dodged it too.
"What the hell is that?!" the man with halberd asked Mystic irritated.
"It seems that he has someone for help." Mystic answered to his companion dodging another shot. "I think we must retreat."
"What?!" Miyata was surprised with such offer he wanted to say something as he didn't like the idea, when he suddenly noticed another gleam, but this one was made from another angle too. "Fine." He said dodging it, "Don't relax Yatsu, I'll find you again!" He jumped to the man with the hood and both of them disappeared in flows of wind.
When they disappeared, the shots stopped and there were no sounds of shots.
"What the hell it was?" Kuro asked himself, "I didn't call the reinforcements." he stopped his thoughts and tried to hear something, but there was nothing special now. "Who it could be." he pondered rising his head to the night sky.
"How long those two are going to tarry?" an impudent and irritated voice said. "I've tire to wait those snails!"
"Don't worry I think they will come soon." another voice said, but this one was childish and merry. "Just enjoy this peaceful moment."
"The only thing you always do is just resting and acting the maggot." the irritated man said again.
"What?!" the child became unnerved, "Do you have any proofs?!"
"I don't need them! I know everything about you, noisy."
"Guys, stop fighting." the third person said calmly, who was sitting at the table and was doing something, "You always find thousand and one reason to argue with each other."
"Your opinion wasn't asked, Mechanic!" the irritated person wasn't glad that the man who was sitting at the table decided to interfere into the arguing of those two.
"What are you doing?" the child came closer to the man with his hand on his back of the head; he looked at the table, "Still rummaging through the junk?"
"Why do you think that it's junk?" the man asked with a smile turning his head to the boy, the man head black glasses on his eyes. He had well-formed unshaved bristle. His hair were black, the man was wearing a black singlet with a green waistcoat with high collar.
"Because they belong to broken robots." the boy merely responded. "If you want just call to the boss and he will deliver something better."
"If I took from defeated robots it doesn't mean that, it's garbage." the man admitted, "Some of the details still in good condition."
"And what are you going to do with them?" the man who was irritated asked him. "Do you want to install them into our 'Mister Silence'?"
"Why should I do it?" the man at the table didn't understand the question.
The man who was irritated groaned and said, "Don't think about it."
"Well if you say so." He shrugged with his shoulders and said to the child, "I want to try to improve the work of my robots. That's why I'm checking the details."
"I see." the boy said like he understood what the man meant.
"By the way, Massimo." the man asked the irritated man. He was pretty big instead of the other two, he was tall and muscular, he was wearing the brown waistcoat on his arms he had metal gloves. He also had brown trousers and metal boots. His face was blunt and also had several scars.
The boy was on the other hand he was short, but still not so much to be a shorty. He had a uniform which was similar to Taimanin's one. His trunk was covered with cloths which were closing almost all of it except his sides. And his tight trousers were closing almost all his legs except side part of his thighs.
"I'd like to ask you, what you found during your mission with that 'Mister Silence' as you said." Mechanic asked him.
"Well." Massimo pondered, "To be honest we found nothing special. As we found it was the place where the captivities were processed in slaves.
"So there was no of what we're looking for, huh?" the man asked sorting out the details.
"No, he checked their computers and tried to find at least one clue, but there was nothing and he deleted all the data, they possessed." the big man said with some irritated voice.
"I think there was also no information about the location of other bases." he asked again.
"They keep all information perfectly." he only shrugged with his shoulders.
"By the way, how was it protected?" the boy decided to join the conversation.
"Do you mean the base?" the man asked, and the boy nodded, "Just some robots, and some other gangsters."
"Were there demons?" the boy asked with shining eyes.
"No, there were no demons." the man merely answered. "If you want to fight demons you should visit Tokyo." He stopped for a second, but then added, "Or the best opportunity to fight demons is to join those hunters."
"Well to join them is not a point." the boy referred, "But to go to Tokyo it's a good idea."
"Don't worry, maybe soon we will be sent to Tokyo." the man stopped sorting out the details and turned his head to his companions. "But first, we must finish our mission here."
"I can't wait for the moment to fight these creatures!" he said and hit his fist with his palm.
"Why do you want to fight demons so badly, kid?" the massive man asked him.
"Because, in Russia there are almost no demons to fight, of course!" the boy exclaimed, "And I fought them several times."
"I see." the massive one said, suddenly they heard sound of steps. "Just in time." he said then.
After a brief period of time, two persons entered the room. Both of them were medium size. One of them was wearing a strange uniform he had some sort of a jacket with long and wide sleeves, with were a bit longer than his arms. And also he was wearing shorts which reached till his knees. And on his feet he was wearing some sort of boots. The colour of the uniform was white. His features of face were gentle and soft and his eyes were grey, and his hair was white.
Another newcomer was covered in metal armor; on his face he had a visor. It gave impression that the person was not a human at all. The armor of the man was dark purple with some black stripes. On his back he had big snipe gun and on his belt to guns. He also had something on his back, something that reminded small wings. Both newcomers were silent, but the boy decided to disturb they silence at once.
"Why are you so late? I thought that you're punctual Alexander."
"Nothing special, just some troublesome things happened." the man with strange uniform referred to the boy.
"What thing happened?" the boy continued his questioning.
"There's absolutely nothing to be worry about." the man gave a smile to him.
"You know." the man with black glasses said, "When you give such smile there's something strange happened."
"No really, there's nothing to be worried about..." he said again, how they heard his voice again, but in a bit worse quality.
"Help him!" then was a pause for several seconds, "As a leader I order you to help this hunter."
"What the…?!" the man in white uniform exclaimed.
"Well, it's interesting." the massive man said, "What hunter?"
"Tell us, tell us!" the kid demanded to tell what the elders started to discuss.
"Fine." the man gave up, and the person in armor went to the far corner of the room taking his snipe gun, and when he sat at the corner he started to check it. "While we were on our patrol we met fighting hunters."
"Fighting hunters?" Mechanic didn't understand.
"Well, it was a hunter who fought another hunter." he tried to explain.
"What hunters have you seen?" the boy asked him.
"As I understood, one of them was Yatsu Kuro." he answered looking at the boy.
"The one with self-healing abilities?" the man in black glasses asked, the man nodded, 'Interesting, very interesting.' he thought.
"And, who were the other two?" the boy asked, as he wanted to know.
"He was fighting other two persons, there're was the one whom I don't know at all." he said putting his right hand onto his side. "He was wearing a metal armor and was fighting with halberd. But the second one is well-known element to us."
"Really? Who is it?" Massimo asked him.
The man with hair looked at the person who was sitting at the corner who was sitting and cleaning his snipe gun. "It was Mystic." he sighed.
"What?!" Massimo and the kid exclaimed at once, Mechanic said nothing, but his face became frown. "Are you sure?!" the massive one asked his comrade, not believing what he has just heard.
"Yes. On my memory there's only one who is wearing the cloak and the hood, which is covering the whole face."
"What have 'The Third Law' forgotten in Sapporo?" the man at the table asked his question, "I thought they were working in Tokyo."
"I have no idea, but if Mystic is here, then other members can be here too." Massimo said. "What should we do now?"
"The mission still continues, there's no doubt in it." the man with white hair referred solidly. "But now we must be very careful, as from one side we have these bastards, and from the other side we have Taimanin, who is on their work here too."
"Why did Taimanin appear here?" the boy asked the man, "Are the here for 'The Third Law'?"
"I don't think so..." the man referred, but couldn't continue as he was interrupted.
"Kidnappings!" all the four heard the irritated voice of Massimo, which was in a bad quality, then they turned their heads to the person who was working over his snipe gun, but he showed no sign of joining to their conversation.
"Yes, maybe because of them." he shrugged with his shoulders.
"And." the man with green vest asked, "What should we do with Taimanin?"
"Well, first of all, we mustn't expose our presence in Sapporo." the man with white hair started, "Secondly, during our mission they're not our enemies now. So I think it's stupid to lose your energy fighting them."
"It's pity. I'd wanted to fight one of them." the boy said disappointed.
"I thought you wanted to fight demons." Mechanic said to the boy with interest.
"Yes the demons, are the first ones, I want to fight more!" he exclaimed.
"By the way did you found something except those guys?" the Massive one asked again.
"No." the white haired shook his head, but then said more confident, "From this moment we were changing our methods." he also raised his voice, and with that act could direct their attention at him, even the person with the snipe gun turned his head to the side of the speaker.
"Are your drones ready?" the man turned his head to the man at the table.
"Yes, I've repaired them, but what do you want with them?" the man answered, but still couldn't understand what the man wanted.
"Good. We will need them." he said, "And you kid." he watched at the boy.
"Hey!" he exclaimed, "Don't call me kid!"
"Sorry. You'll be needed in my plan too." he quickly said. "If Mystic is here, then it means that, what we're looking for must be somewhere here."
"Now go and rest, tomorrow I'll tell you my plan." he commanded to them and left the room."
