7 Creating Trouble

Leon sighed as he realized what he had to do, everyone was preoccupied as Uvogin had started his next fight. Looking around one last time to see if anyone had noticed him, Leon knelt down on the roof pulling back his fist as the veins along his arm bulged standing out against his skin. Holding his position Leon waited before the crowd roared again before punching the stone roof, the roof crumbled in where he was kneeling dropping him directly into the room below.

Standing up quickly Leon could see the outline of a chair with someone sitting in it, pushing off the ground Leon appeared behind the chair before placing his sharp fingernails to the person's temple. Leon heard guns cocking as the dust cleared revealing three large men in blacks suits each looking like a default secret service agent, " Not so fast, one wrong move and I lobotomize your boss here. "

Leon looked at the man he was holding hostage, with thick black hair, clear skin, a thin nose and lips he was the best looking man he had seen so far in Meteor City. Leon saw the guards thinking about their options when the boss spoke up, " Do what he says. " The man's accent was heavy but Leon couldn't recognize it, " Good now that everybody's settled I have a few questions. Why is Uvogin fighting and where is the other boy he came with. "

One of the guards growled, " What does it matter to you. "Leon's eyes grew darker as an almost palpable pressure descended on the room " You do not speak unless I ask you to, understand. " Both men knees shook as they tried to resist Leon's aura, scoffing Leon pulled in his aura letting everyone in the room breathe again.

" Now answer my question. " The boss cleared his throat, " Uvogin stole from me some time ago, that little shit took advantage of my kindness. When my men spotted them I saw an opportunity to regain some of my lost wealth. I made a deal with him, he and his friend get to leave when he wins a hundred matches. "

Leon was silent before he spoke, " Call off his next match and bring his friend here if my demands aren't met in two minutes you die. " One of the guards touched his earpiece, " The boss wants Uvogin and the kid in his office in the next two minutes. " Leon nodded as he started to count down in his head, he was nearing the fifteen-second mark when the door was opened by Uvogin.

As he stepped into the room Leon was able to see Nobunaga who looked a little roughed up but he wasn't bleeding. Uvogin's eyes widened but he stayed silent, " Now the four of us are going to take a walk, once we get to the exit I'll let you go and we can go our separate ways. " The next few minutes were stressful for everyone the boss led them through a secret tunnel that led out into an alleyway.

Like he promised Leon let his hostage go earning him a death glare before they left. Uvogin tried to speak but Leon held up his hand, " Not yet we need to get to somewhere safe, they probably coming after us. "

Back at the alleyway, the boss straightened his collar trying to cope with the fact that a child had broken into his base and made a fool of him. Turning around the man reached into his pocket pulling out a cellphone, " Put out a bounty for 5000 dollars on a kid with white hair and blue eyes. " Hanging up on his first call, the boss opened up his contacts list and selected the first one, " I need to cash in a favor. "

Leon, Uvogin, and Nobunaga stopped for the first time in twelve minutes turning around Leon looked behind him, " We can rest here. " Nobunaga groaned as he leaned against the wall before sliding to the floor, " What the hell was that, how did find us. " Leon stared at Uvogin, " I'm an assassin tracking is one of my specialties, also what were you thinking you go to fight ring which you stole from!! " Uvogin didn't back down get into Leon's face, " He wasn't supposed to be there, I've done it before so don't get all high and mighty. "

Leon was about to yell back when Nobunaga stood up, " The both of you shut up, I haven't eaten all day and your bickering is going to give me a headache. Now can we start making our way home? " Leon stopped glaring at Uvogin, " We can make our way back but it's going to take a while, people are no doubt looking for us. " The three of them rested for a few more minutes before they started to move again, Leon guided them through the run-down buildings and scrapyards that made up Meteor City.

Finally turning on the street the warehouse was at the tension that had been built up in their shoulder leaked away as the safety of home was nearby. Still not letting his guard drop Leon looked around before ushering Uvogin and Nobunaga inside. Only when the door closed behind them Leon finally completely relaxed, " Where the hell have all of you been. " Leon winced as Pakunoda stormed over to them, " Don't look at me, I had to hold a mob boss hostage to free the both of them. " Everyone in the room started to converge on them and Machi took a stand next to Pakunoda, " You have a lot of explaining to do. "
