Chapter 2

Blake woke up the next day on a coach in what seems to be a office he remembered climbing through a random window and took of his suit and passed out on the couch. He walked downstairs a few minutes later trying to find his uncle and his uncle was sitting in the living room on a chair watching the news.

"Well you woke up earlier then I thought you would." He said as he looked up at him.

"Why what time is it?" Blake asked

"It's 9:40 am you have only been asleep for about 4 hours." His uncle said

"Well I've gotten used to waking up most places where I trained usually woke me up even earlier." Blake said

His uncle nodded. "There already talking about you witnesses said they saw a ninja on top of a truck going through the streets the police were confused and think it's a joke or something so that's good but sooner or later they will realize that people are not joking and they will start searching for you.

They found the paper with the address of the docks you left them and when they got there nobody was there there was no body's no drugs no weapons nothing so they cleared out in time to not get caught." His uncle explained

Blake nodded. "Well we need to take down the black Phoenix quickly then."

"Well my contact said that the next shipment is going to be in a few days so until then I say you focus on something else." His uncle said

"And what would that be?" Blake asked

"That." His uncle said as he pointed to the tv.

"Last night the gang calling themselves the kings of los angles robbed another bank this is there sixth bank in the last 2 weeks." The woman on the news said.

"Ok you want me to stop these men?" Blake asked

"Yes I do" his uncle said

"We need to focus all our attention on the black Phoenix and stopping him." Blake said

"Blake the black Phoenix is not the only person in this city that needs to be stopped these men have military weapons and armor and they have that." His uncle said as he pointed at the tv behind the men was a man in a different type of armor that rapped around his whole body when the cops shot at him it didn't seem to be doing anything but leave a few bullet holes in it there was two machine guns attached to the arms of the armor that tore through the cop cars and there armor. The only way to harm the man in the suit was through the two eye holes on the helmet that were going to be hard to shoot through.

"Do we have anything on the robbers anyway to identify them?" Blake asked

"I don't know I have not had the chance to look at the footage that much but hopefully you can find something." His uncle said

"I'll look into it." Blake said

"Good I have to go." His uncle said as he stood up

"Where are you going?" Blake asked

"Well we have been gone for 20 years and I still have a company that I'm in charge of." His uncle said.

"Well alright then I'll call you once I get anything on the robbers." Blake said

"Ok I'll see you later." His uncle said as he walked out the door.

For the next hour Blake had been searching though the footage trying to find anything he could use to identify any of the members of the robbers and and he found something from one of the security cameras from the first bank they robbed it was hard for Blake to see it but one of the men had a tattoo on his arm. it was a skull with a crown on it and a snake coming out of its eyeholes in all the bank robbery's after that it seemed that the man covered it up.

Blake traced the tattoo to a tattoo parlor and later that night he visited the man who owned the place.

The owner was in the office of the parlor going through some papers at his desk when he heard the front door open.

"Hello?" He said as he stood up and he heard footsteps coming towards his office. "I'm sorry but we are closed." He said as he reached for his gun that was propped up under his desk.

Blake walked in front of the doorway in his suit. "I won't hurt you Unless you give me a reason to." He said.

"I saw you on tv some people are calling you a hero for stopping drug dealers and others are calling you insane But I don't know what you are." The man said.

"I'm someone you can trust I just need to ask you some questions?" Blake said

The man nodded. "What do you need to know?" He asked.

"I need the names of everyone who's gotten this tattoo at your shop." Blake said as he handed the man a picture of the tattoo one of the bank robbers had.

The man nodded. "I have a book of the the customers I have had and the tattoo I gave them give me a second and I can write down all the names for you." He said as he pulled out a notebook

Blake nodded And stepped out the room and after a few minutes he heard talking coming from the owners office he walked towards the room he could hear him talking on the phone.

"He's asked me for the names of some people I've given a tattoo to I don't know why but when are you going to get here?" The man asked as Blake walked into the room when he saw he was on the phone he threw a throwing star and it hit his phone out of his hand.

"The police will be here soon so get out of my store." The man said.

Blake marched up to him and pinned him against the wall. "Does that book actually have all the names of the people who have purchased something from here?" Blake asked.

"Yes it does just let me go!" The man yelled.

Blake released the man and grabbed the book and left the building just before the cops got there.

A few hours later Blake was able to get 45 names of the people who got the same tattoo the bank robber had and he narrowed it down to one man.

Jason hart seemed to have the right skin tone height and he had the tattoo on his left arm Blake looked at his known location and it was him going inside a warehouse on the other side of town.

30 minutes later Blake was on the roof of the warehouse from what he could see through the roof window nobody was inside the building he slammed his feet onto the window and broke it and he landed on the ground.

He looked around the room and saw a bunch of weapons and armor and another big suit of armor that one man was wearing he then saw a planning board and examined it for a bit and what he got from it was there was gonna be another bank heist and it was labeled the big score. There was a picture of one of the biggest banks in the city in it and it was happing tonight and that was why nobody was in the building because they already left.

Blake ran out the garage and pulled out his grappling hook he fired it in the air and once it hooked onto something on top of a building it pulled him up. He pulled out his phone and called his uncle.

"Blake I'm still at the office you can't call me right now I still have a few things I need to catch up on." His uncle said.

"I found out where the bank robbers are gonna hit next it's the largest one in the city." Blake said.

"if there gonna rob it there gonna need something big to carry it. This wouldn't be like there other ones they would probably have to get a large truck I'm sending a someone your number he can help you he's a hacker he hacked into the cameras at the docks for me last night. he could hack into street cameras nearby the bank and tell you when they get there I have to get back to work now good luck." His uncle said and hung up.

A minute later Blake got a call. "Are you Blake Jones?" A man asked.

"Yes I am." Blake said.

"Your uncle told me you needed help mr Jones I've hacked into the street cameras outside the bank and it seems they already started there's cop cars outside the bank and there's a large truck in the back of the bank that's probably what they will put the money in." The man said.

"I'm almost there thank you for your help." Blake said.

"No problem mr Jones we will probably be speaking again real soon." The man said and hung up.

Blake finally got to the bank and saw all the cop cars in front of the bank doors Blake needed to find a way in where the cops wouldn't see them. Blake pulled out and fired his grappling hook at the roof of the bank after it pulled him up there he saw a large window in the middle of the roof. He looked through it to see inside the bank robbers had hostages Blake knew he would have to be carful to make sure none of them got hurt Blake pulled out a small device that looked like a pen and he put it on the glass it was a plasma cutter he pressed a button on it at it started to cut through the glass until he made a circle big enough that he could fit through he watched as the circle fell to the ground breaking startling the Hostages. Blake saw one of the robbers walk in to see what the noise was and looked up in time to see Blake leap through the whole and he landed on top of him knocking him out.

"Where are the other robbers?" Blake asked one of the hostages. They pointed at the room in the back still startled.

Blake walked towards the room and saw the one in the large metal armor rip open the large vault door and another robber was right next to him. As Blake was about to walk towards them he felt something touch the back of his head.

"If you move your dead." The man said.

The two other robbers at the vault turned around a saw Blake. Before they could do anything Blake dropped a smoke bomb and when it hit the ground it went off immediately scaring the guy who had there gun pointed at Blake giving him enough time to take him down.

Blake grabbed the robbers gun and slammed it into his head knocking him to the ground. Blake felt something lift him into the air and throw him into a wall.

Blake shot at the man in armor but all it did was leave small bullet holes in the amor the man in armor went to punch Blake but he dodged it in time and the man in armor punched the wall instead leaving a large crack in it. Blake tried shooting at him again but it just left more bullet holes the man in armor hit Blake sending him flying back. Blake flew into a wall and the man in armor slowly walked towards him. Blake slowly stood up and ran at him and pulled out a knife he leaped for him and jumped on his back the man tried reaching for him

But the armor would not let his hands reach that far back. Blake pulled out a small knife and stuck it through one of the eye holes stabbing the man in one of his eyes Blake heard screaming from the man and he let go of the man in armor as he fell to the ground screaming in pain and soon stopped.

Blake turned around and went to the vault where the other two robbers were still trying to fill up there bags. Blake ran up to one of them and kicked them on the side of there gut making them fall back onto the ground the other turned around to punch him but Blake grabbed there fist and pulled there arm back dislocating it.

The other robber stood up with there gun but before they could shoot someone else walked into the vault.

"Put your weapons on the ground." The officer said. Blake wasn't sure how the officer got in there if they knew there was hostages inside before Blake could react the robber fired his gun at the cop Blake saw the cop fall to the ground with bullet holes in his chest. Blake punched the robber knocking him out before he could shoot Blake also. Blake then scooped up the officer and brought him out the vault and headed towards the exit to get the officer some help who was still alive but wouldn't be for much longer as he was walking towards the exit when he walked out there was over a dozen officers out there all of them pointing there guns at him.

"Don't shoot this man is dying he needs medical assistance!" Blake yelled. Two officers slowly walked up to Blake both with there guns pointed at him but put them away to get the officer.

"Ok now put your hands behind your head." One of the officers said.

Blake didn't know what to do or how he was going to get out of this with over a dozen cops having there guns pointed at him but before he could do anything a large truck went speeding down the highway and it hit any cars that were in its way it was the bank robbers that was the truck they were gonna put the cash from the bank in. Luckily for Blake this distracted the officers and he was able to rush back into the bank he looked around for the robbers and they were all gone and all that was left was the large body of armor and the bloody knife right next to it. Blake grabbed the knife and put it in its holder and pulled out a grappling hook he fired it through the hole on the window he used to enter the building it got hooked onto something on the roof and it pulled him up and he crawled through the window just before the cops came in there.

A hour later Blake returned to the mansion through a window like he did last night he walked down to the living room to go down to the basement to try to find another way to find the robbers when he got to the basement his uncle was in there watching the news which was showing the bank robbers escaping and Blake carrying the injured police man out of the bank.

"People are now calling you a hero Blake most of them being police officers." His uncle said.

"I wasn't able to stop the robbers." Blake said.

"Yeah because you carried a wounded police man out of the bank instead of stopping the robbers." His uncle said.

"Well to be fair I thought I knocked most of them out and I'm pretty sure I killed one of them." Blake said as he pulled out the bloody knife he stabbed the man in armor with.

"Good job now we can identify one of them." His uncle said.

"I already identified one of them that brought me to there hideout and then the bank they robbed." Blake said.

"You mean attempted to rob they made it out with almost no money maybe a few thousand." His uncle said.

"So there going to try to hit up another bank because I stopped there big score." Blake said.

"Well you said you went to there hideout earlier did you go back there after the robbery." His uncle asked

"I did but nobody was there and a lot of equipment that was there when I was there earlier wasn't there anymore including another one of those big sets of armor that one guy had so I guess they got there before I did got some things they needed and went somewhere else." Blake said.

"Well hopefully this guys blood can help us in some way before they plan there next robbery but it will take a few hours so for now you should go and get some rest." He told Blake.

Blake nodded. "You should too." He said as he turned around and walked up the stairs to go lay down.

While this was happing on the other side of the city the kings of Los Angeles arrived at one of there hideouts.

"Who the hell was that guy?" One of them asked.

"I have no idea but he stabbed Jason's eye out he's lucky he is still alive." Another said.

"Anthony's helping him lay down right now and get something to patch up his eye." He responded.

"What are we going to do we barley got anything from that." The other said.

"We hit another and then we get the hell out of this city." He responded.

"I can offer you something even better gentleman." A man said from a corner of the room.

Both men pulled out a pistol and aimed them at the man.

"Who the hell are you?" One of them asked.

"My name is John black and I want to help you if you help me." John said as he came out from the shadows.

"How can you help us?" The other asked.

"Last night the same man who attacked you attacked my men at the docks and killed most of them you boys should consider yourself lucky only one of you just lost a eye if you help me kill this man I will pay you double the money you were supposed to get tonight do we have a deal?" John asked.

The men looked at each other and nodded in agreement. "Yeah we got a deal."
