[ Flashback begins ]

"Dan run, run and don't look back".

A female voice can be heard in the distance as a young boy looks on from the shadows as she is raped and hacked to death by a group of masked men.

"This is what happens when you deny the boss what he asks for".

One of the masked men says as he thrusts into the female mercilessly. Watching everything burn as he stood outside the building, looking at his home go up in smoke, he could not help but break down in tears.

**********************

"Your parents were good people, it's such a shame they never got to see their son grow".

An old man that looks to be in his sixties says as he tends to the young Raza ; grey hairs filled the old man scalp, the boy noted the wrinkles on the aged Raza's face and hands has he worked to fetch him something to eat.

"I'm gonna avenge their deaths " the young Raza says without remorse.

The old geezer looks at him and is taken aback by his words.

"Those are heavy words you just spoke, son, can you really keep to them??".

The younger Raza looks up and asks rather politely.

"Will you help me get back at these men that destroyed my home ". The geezer waves him away, "we'll speak no more of this"

[ Flashback ends ]

"Open this door right now!!".

A loud voice yells has the owner of the voice pounds heavily on the wooden door.

"Who the hell is that."

A young male retorts.

"I'm coming ,hold your horses, will you " he says has he rises from his bed to open the door.

"Old geezer always coming at the worst times, why couldn't he just let me finish my nap" he mutters to himself.

"Finally you open the door, I thought I'd have knock it down."

a Raza looking to be middle aged speaks rather sarcastically. He was dark haired but grey hairs seemed to be springing up at certain places. 

Just then, a female comes up the stairs with a worried look on her face.

"Hermit please calm down. Getting riled up won't help matters."

The female says as she reaches where the middle aged man stood. 

"Hermit, how's life treating you, What's the latest??"

The young man asks with a smirk on his face.

"Cut the crap, Dan, where's my money, you've been dodging me for quite some time now, now I won't let you go anywhere."

Hermit replies roughly with a frustrated look on his face.

"Give me till this evening alright, I'll get you your money, don't worry about it."

Dan says still smiling, musing at the frustrated look on Hermit's face.

"Fine this evening and that's it, no more excuses."

Hermit agrees and walks away from the door immediately going down the stairs.

"Such a nice man."

Dan says 

"You know he is only being hard on you for your own good."

The female says as she watches Hermit stomp down the stairs.

"You know me aunt. I don't plan on giving up on my mission any time soon."

Dan replies

"I realize that but do one thing for me... Take care of yourself."

The female says after which she turns to leave.

"Yeah sure. Will do."

Dan replies as he closes the door and locks it.

Dan walks over to the makeshift mirror in his room and stares at the figure in the mirror.

Looking like a Raza in his late teens, Dan spots a clean shaven face and neatly cut blonde hair, his body physique looked like one chiseled out of stone, with rock hard abs and nicely shaped chest, Dan was growing up to be a man with everything physically necessary to get any RAZZ'R ( female Raza ) he desired.

Looking away from the window, he spots an object beneath his bed, he bends down and reaches for it, pulling out a sword still covered in its sheath.

"At least I got you back"

Dan muses as he pulls the sword out of its sheath, the blade is quite exquisite to say the least, covered in different marks and symbols, it shown a glistening silver glow when struck by sunlight, it's helm was quite nice as well with handles protruding from both ends to point downwards in the direction of the blade, the helm had a red gem placed in it, it cast an enchanting glow on Dan as he gazed upon it's beauty.

"I'm starving, wonder what is been served down at the Inn."

Dan murmurs to himself as he puts the sword back in its cover.

Dan heads to the inn and walks in. His presence is met with stares from other customers already present at the Inn, he ignores their stares and walks straight to the counter.

"Hey, can I get some service here."

Dan calls out.

His call is greeted by a female that walks up to him and asks for his order. He promptly gives his order and heads to take a seat at an empty table, as he sits there he fades into his thoughts…

TIME : 2:45PM

LOCATION : GOVERNMENT HOUSE, CALOS CITY

"He only took a sword??"

A middle aged Raza asks Karan.

The man is obviously a high placed dignitary judging from his attire and the décor of his office.

He is dressed in a dark blue long suit and a streamlined trouser with dark shoes to match, wearing glasses and light skinned dark complexion, he looked to be a man with class.

"Yes."

Karan responds to the question posed to him by the dignitary and goes ahead to inform him about the law enforcers that showed up at the warehouse.

"Sir, apart from all that I've just told you, all is still going as planned."

The man in glasses turns to look at Karan and asks him a simple question.

"Do you have any idea who he might be?"

"No."

Karan replies calmly.

"Find him and take care of him."

The man commands and dismisses him swiftly.

"I can't just allow people to be stealing from me. It I'll serve has a warning to others who might start having funny ideas about stealing from me."

Karan obliges and leaves promptly....

TIME : 6:26PM

LOCATION : CAUCUS DISTRICT

"Sai, this is supposed to be a recon mission".

Ilara says with bated breath. 

Her physical appearance was that of a female with blonde hair, pale blue eyes, aquiline shaped nose, a tender jaw line and a slender figure wearing a navy blue uniform 

"I know but I'm tired of waiting out here for something to happen, I'm going in."

Sai responds as he rises from their hiding place.

His physical appearance was that of a dark haired male with dark eyes, aquiline shaped nose with a chiseled jaw line while also possessing a masculine physique.

"Sai, Sai, it's cause of these kinds of stunts, the chief is always upset with us."

Ilara complains obviously not happy with what Sai was about to do.

"Do you have the goods I asked for??"

A male Raza in a black outfit, covering his face with a hoodie asks another man with a T-shirt and black jeans.

"Yeah sure of course, did you bring my money?"

the Raza in the T-shirt retorts in bated breath.

There's a quick exchange of packages and the hooded figure checks the package he received and nods his head, affirming the fact that he had gotten what he came for.

"Nice doing business with you, Jace."

The hooded figure says and immediately leaves in a haste...

"It looks like he is working alone, Sai."

Ilara says as they follow the hooded figure through an alleyway, careful not to give their presence away.

"Hold your horses babe. Trust my gut on this, I got a feeling that Crow over there ain't working alone and I'm gonna find out who he is working for."

Sai replies Ilara as they reach a bend and halt their movement after seeing Crow stop rather abruptly.

"Hello Sai, it's been a while..."

Crow turns around and faces the direction in which Sai and Ilara are hiding.

"Are you gonna come out or do I have to smoke you out."

Crow takes off his hoodie and hides the package he is carrying in his hood pocket.

"And here I thought I was being sneaky."

Sai cockily says as he reveals himself, with Ilara tagging along behind him visibly disappointed by the fact that the they were caught out by Crow.

"What's in the package, Crow??"

Sai asks with peaked interest.

"That's for me to know and for you to shut up about."

Crow replies in an annoyed tone.

"You have been causing a lot of trouble on the streets, Sai, making me do things myself these days, I'm gonna warn you now though, stay away or you'll regret it…"

Crow warns Sai with a stern face.

"You don't tell me how to do my job."

Sai retorts, obviously not moved by Crow's warning.

"You know it would take more than just a petty threat to put us off, right??"

Ilara asks rather unmoved by the threat made by Crow.

"I won't warn any of you again, Detectives."

Crow immediately starts to step back into the dark part of the alleyway and he is seen no more...
