3 Dark Mage Attack

BOOM!

Jolting up, an explosion sounded outside the door causing Katakuri to wake up.

Hopping out of bed. Katakuri's face dropped as he rushed directly outside.

His already grim face sunk as he saw flames in the distance of the village, Katakuri's eyes sunk as a deep crimson glow burst out of his sockets.

His boots slammed onto the ground as he rushed out hearing explosions all around him as a tendon broke out on his head.

In front of him, three figures dressed in dark robes rushed out of a nearby house with smiles on their faces.

"OI! Brat! Come e're"

A fat figure in between two skinny ones yelled with a sinister smile as he approached Katakuri.

Katakuri's face sank as his anger overflowed, almost permeating the surroundings.

Clenching his fists with flashing eyes he dashed at the fat black-robed figure who was laughing

"Hahah-"

BOOM!

The fist smashed directly into the abdomen with a loud crack sound and he flew away back into the nearby house causing a large explosion sound.

Blood and various entrails dripped from Katakuri's knuckle as he stared at the other two.

"WHO'S NEXT!" Katakuri let out a fierce roar like a beast staring down the remaining two figures who at this point were looking in a cold sweat.

Without waiting for them to react Katakuri dashed towards the one on the left throwing a devasting punch towards his head which soon popped like a watermelon exploding blood and flesh everywhere.

"M-m-monster!"

The other black-robed figure trembled with his finger outstretched towards the now blood-soaked figure of Katakuri who slowly approached him.

The footsteps sounded like the walk of the grim reaper to him as he lost all strength in his legs and collapsed, his finger still outstretched and covered in the blood of his companions.

"M-mer-"

Without waiting for him to finish his pleas for mercy a jelly bean ejected from Katakuri's fingers piercing the thin man's head making a clear hole that could be seen from either side.

His anger barely abated Katakuri sped towards Erza's house as his eyes once again began to glow crimson.

"HOW DARE THEY TRY AND TAKE MY FAMILY" Katakuri roared as he dashed away.

"P-please!"

"H-HELP!"

Various screams scattered around as jelly beans which pierced deep into the bones embedded themselves in various black-robed figures.

Katakuri looked at the fierce, violent fires which spread all around as more black-robed figures approached in the distance, soon to be killed in by his hands.

Arriving at Erza's door, Katakuri was slightly panting and visibly nervous.

Looking at the remnants of the house which had been scrapped in the initial wave of attackers, Katakuri roared in anguish.

"K-katakuri?"

A small voice appeared in the alley nearby as Erza poked out her head like a turtle.

Katakuri looked at the small figure and sighed in relief as he approached and gently wiped the tears forming on her cheeks.

"Shhh, it's alright now, I'm here" He coaxed as he gently rubbed her head.

Erza burst into tears and dug deeper into his arms.

"Two more here!"

Another group of black-robed people approached causing Erza to visibly shake in panic.

"Katakuri, you go, leave here" She said in broken sentences, fighting back tears.

Katakuri smiled gently at her and kept rubbing her hair as the figures approached.

"Close your eyes, It'll all be over soon" He said softly near he ear causing her to relax and close her eyes obediently.

Seeing this, Katakuri's gentle smile vanished as his eyes glowed crimson and a fierce look appeared on his face below the scarf.

The dark mage nearby was about to grab him when all of a sudden a jelly bean flicked directly onto his head causing him to stagger and fall leaving a pool of blood where he landed

Three more black-robed men in the distance glanced at each other and began to walk toward Katakuri with grim faces.

"AAAAHHHH!!!"

Screams rang out seconds later as holes like bullets appeared in various parts of one of their bodies causing them to fall.

Seeing this another ran towards Erza to take her hostage.

SPLAT!

Katakuri fiercely grabbed the man's head and began to apply pressure causing his head to explode like a balloon leaving blood and brain matter all over the remaining man who had begun to run.

"You dare, you dare, you dare move my family!" Katakuri let out an almost beast-like growl as he flicked another jelly bean toward the fleeing man's head, piercing it with a crack.

His scarf now red with blood which covered most of his figure was used to quickly wipe up the remaining blood on his face.

"Okay, it's safe, you can open your eyes"

Erza tentatively opened her eyes as her cute face rubbed against Katakuri's chest not caring about the blood.

Touching her head Katakuri murmured in satisfaction as his other hand held hers and led her slowly out of the darkness of the alley.
