"Hang on," Ash said as he pulled his phone out of his pocket and answered it.

Ash's calm demeanor switched to one of concern as he quickly stood up, and as he did the door to the bar swung open as a group rushed in swinging bats."Move!" Ash shouted, River quickly stood up and backed away slightly shocked as to what was happening. The bar broke out into chaos in a matter of seconds. The beanie wearer clenched her jaw as she dodged the swing of a bat aimed straight for her head. She punched the offending guy hard in the gut, watching him double over.

A look of surprise swept over the blonde's features, but as soon as it appeared it was gone. Ash held his own at River's side. Swiftly she moved back to avoid a punch only to land her own jab square in the jaw. The blue-eyed girl turned, seeing a guy approach from the counter, ready to swing a metal pipe down on Ashe. Her body moved and shoved Ash slightly as moved out of the way then grabbed the pipe, pulling it towards her, sending the guy hurdling forward into her. River sidestepped and brought her knee up to meet his face as he fell.

A guy then came at Ash with a bat as he backed up, dogging each swing. River punched the next guy, blocking and redirecting blows. Ashe was now practically sitting in the bar's counter. Launching himself off the bar to kick the guy, Ashe grunted before continuing to brawl along side River.

"Freeze! This is the police!" a familiar voice shouted from the entrance. River's eyes did not leave the waves of men attacking them.

Two gunshots went off but all she could do was watch as a guy ran at her with a knife. Like water River grabbed his wrist moving underneath it as she stood up and brought an elbow down against the back of the other's elbow, his bone making a sickening crack before she shoved him to the side and dodged the next guy.

"After him!" Was heard off to the side as the two had managed to work their way across the bar fighting alongside the blonde. Out the corner of her eye, she watched Ashe paused to look over towards the shouting. River grabbed a pool stick and broke it over the back of the guy in front of Ash.

"The hell was that?!" She grunted as Ash moved to punch a guy behind her and she kicked a guy running up from the side.

"I see what you're after now!" He roared as he punched one last guy before running off towards the bar."Skip, get back here! It's a trap!!"

Ash was grabbed by two men. Without a second thought, River grabbed the guy holding him by the shoulder, allowing him to turn and punch him before handling the guy that threw himself across the pool table to grab him.

The dark-skinned Japanese elbowed the guy that tried grabbing her from behind before taking off after him. Wasn't Eiji with Skip?

"Eiji?!"

River and Ash both took off out of the bar as fast as they could. Getting back up to the street level the blue-eyed female ran towards the car she saw Skipper being shoved into.

"SKIPPER!!"

"EIJI!!!" The small kid struggled against the man that forced him into the car, "ASH!!"

River began to pull head slightly, a hair away from reaching the car door handle before they began to speed away. Each breath was like swallowing fire, lunges burning as she sucked in the air trying to keep up as the car became further and further away. "EIJI!!!"  River shouted only to hear a gunshot. She flinched, only to see the back windshield crack, leaving a bullet hole.

"What?" She turned back around on full alert only to see Ashe standing in the middle of the street aiming. "Are you insane?! What if you hit them?!" 

"SHUT UP!" He roared face full of anger as he reloaded his revolver.

It was then, that a guy pulled up on a red motorcycle. River quickly hurried over as you watched the stranger pull off his helmet, exposing a wild purple mohawk.

"Ash, you're alive." He said, placing his helmet down in front of him.

"Shorter, I need this!" He said as he quickly traded places with him. Coming to a stop at the bike River climbed on as Ash slipped on the helmet, holding onto the Ashe's sides. Every muscle in his body seemed to tense at the contact. "What are you doing?" he growled over the motor of the bike.

"Shut up and drive!"

He was already taking off as the words left River's mouth, burning rubber to turn around before taking off. She held on as they took turn after turn and weaved through traffic to keep up with the speeding car. The sun was setting as they sped over a bridge. How far were you guys going?

It was night time when River and Ash pulled up to an abandoned building.  She looked around, keeping your guard up as you stuffed your hands in your hoodie pockets.

"I know you're here, Arthur. Show yourself."

"A gangster named Arthur. Scary." River grumbled sarcastically.

As if on que a messy-haired blonde walked from the shadows sporting jeans and a green jacket.

River glared at him. If looks could kill....

"Wassup, Boss." the man now known as Arthur said, "You know it's a trap, right? Why'd you come?" Arthur's glance wandered over to River, arching an eyebrow.

" And you brought company? He's your new boyfriend or something?"

River rolled her eyes before sneering at him.

"I knew I'd have to settle it with you sooner or later," Ash answered, ignoring Arthur's last question. "Where's Skip?"

"Hate to break it to ya, but it's not just about us anymore."The spiky-haired male said as the garage door on their right lifted, showing Skip and Eiji being held by two men. River's eyes widened before narrowing in Arthur's direction.

"Ash!" Skipper shouted.

"Eiji..." River growled, glaring at Arthur, your fists clenched

"Welcome, Ash Lynx."  a large guy sporting shades and a suit walked out of the garage.

"So that's what's up ...That's low even for you, being tamed like the old man's dog." Ash frowned at Arthur.

"You're always too soft," Arthur smirked. "Drop the gun." The bronze-skinned female looked over at Ash from the side of her eye before looking back at the kidnappers.

"Don't, they'll kill you!" Skipper argued.

"Let them go." The blonde demanded, his green eyes not leaving Arthur's.

"Ashe. Who's this boy that you brought with you?" The spiky-haired blonde questioned as he looked River up and down before walking over to Eiji. " And who's this. I heard Skip stood up for him."

Skip was about to protest but  River opened her mouth first. "Keep your filthy hands off him!"

"Oh?" The large guy turned around, looking at River up and down."Isn't my type but I have to admit, you have a nice face boy."

"Marvin. Stop." Ashe growled as a look of disgust flashed over River's features.

Marvin chuckled looked over his shoulder at Eiji then back to River before walking off. " Kill them," he ordered.

River was ready to dash forward but Ash's arm came out to stop her. The man holding Eiji lifted his gun to Eiji's head, "STO-" you were cut off by another shove backward from Ash's arm.

"Hold it." He stared as he pulled his gun out from its place behind him. "You and your ways disgust me." Ash tossed his gun towards them."Don't hurt any of them

"What an admirable boss, looking out for his boys." He grinned as he punched Ash square in the jaw with all of his weight. " Time to get payback for my fingers!"

"ASH!" you gasped as slender blonde fell to the ground.

Ashe grunted as he slowly looked up at the spiky-haired asshole that was now walking over to the beanie-wearing Japenese hybrid. Her blue eyes glaring at him. Slowly she removed her hands from her pockets and lifted them in the air showing surrender.

Arther smirked before he stared at her a bit longer. "You don't have any weapons do you?"

"No."

"Well. Let's make sure." He said as he began to pat you down. However soon as his hands moved from River's arms to her sides he raised an eyebrow. "Oo, that's interesting. You almost feel as soft as a girl.." He said quietly before his hands paused on her hips.

"Hm..." he trailed off moving to grab at her chest feeling the breast that was hidden by the sports bra she wore and her baggy hoodie. "I was right~ and it feels like you have some Double D's under there ." He smirked whispering near her ear as he gave her chest another grope before removing his hands. "And here I thought you were turning me gay or something with that pretty face of yours," he whispered grabbed her and shoved you towards the others.
