It Was Pouring Outside, The Rain Coming Down Hard And Fast. Water Streamed Down My Face And Dripped Off The Tip Of My Nose. My Clothes Were Wet And Clinging To My Body, And My Shoes Squelched With Every Step.
I Could Hear Lightning Crashing In The Distance, Followed By The Sound Of Thunder Rolling Through The Air. The Air Was Filled With The Smell Of Wet Earth And The Sound Of Raindrops Hitting The Pavement. As I Walked, I Could See The Water Pooling On The Ground, Creating Small Streams And Rivulets That Raced Down The Street.
I Still Thought To Myself How I Lost To Such A Brat, A Pagan To Say The Least. The Job Description Never Mentioned These Creatures Could Mix Blood And Increase A Normal Humans Strength. It Would Be Wise To Study This Instead Of Whatever Junko Is Planning To Do, That Unbearable FBI Agent.
As I Carried On Making My Way Back Towards Headquarters, Concealing Myself In My Large Trenchcoat. I Heard A Sudden Pitter Patter Near An Alleyway And Voices That Of A Classic Bratty Bitchy Girl Tone You'd See In Reality TV Shows.
I Guess Curiosity Poisoned Me As I Followed The Laughter Wanting To Know The Source Of The Sound Maybe It'll Be Interesting? I Pretty Much Doubt It But It's Worth A Shot Hehe.
I Turned A Corner In The Alleyway, Finally Finding The Source Of The Sound. It Appeared To Be Two School Girls Approximately Aged 16 And One Chubby Guy Who Seemed About The Same Age. The Chubby Guy However Seemed To Be In Obvious Distress.
Any Sensible Person Would Of Course Guess That I'd Just Walk Away, Sure I'm A Villain But I'm Not A Monster At Least. "Hey, Look At This Piggy, Come On You Want A Burger Or Something Haha" The One On The Right Laughed With Obvious Malice.
As The One On The Left Started Snapping Photos Of The Poor Chubby Student, His Bag Seemed To Be Extremely Wet Like It Was Dunked Into A Puddle Or Something. I Couldn't Stand To Watch These Sinners Torment An Innocent Soul Any Longer, So I Made My Move.
"I'd Suggest You Young Women, Just Scram Before Things Get A Little Active" I Spoke With Obvious Venom In My Words As The Chubby Student Appeared To Be Even More Scared Now, but That Wasn't A Surprise Since My Aura Did Carry Alot Of Fear Along With It. "Excuse Me Old Man, But He's Our Little Chew Toy And What Do You Mean Active? Gonna Hit Us With A Cane?" She Laughed Her Laughter More Annoying Than Anything I Heard.
The One On The Left Joined In Creating An Echo Of Annoying Laughter Which Could Make Someone's Ears Bleed At This Point. I Swiftly Turned Around, "You Know People Ask Me Something All The Time... A Simple Question" I Moved Closer As Their Faces Turned To A Scowl.
"Would You Pick A Bear Or A Man If You Were Trapped In A Forest" I Paused As They Both Looked On At Me In Unease And Distress Mimicking What The Boy Felt Minutes Ago. "But You Know What I Say?" I Smirked As Suddenly On Command My Body Malformed And Twisted Into A Form That Mimicked A Bear With Sharp Claws And Scarred Face.
"I SAY...
WHAT IF I'M BOTH? YOU PATHETIC WHORES!"
I Roared Aggressively As Both Girls Tripped Landing Back Onto The Ground In Pure Fear. "Please... Leave Us Be..." The One On The Left Begged As I Grinned Before Bringing Down My Claw And Swiping Her Head Clean Off. As Her Decapitated Head Smashed Into The Wall.
"Help Me!" The Last Remaining One Yelled As She Ran Desperately Away From Me With A Scared Stiff Face. I Gave Chase As She Ran And Ran But It Was No Use As I Pounced Down Onto Her Making Her Trip And Face Plant The Floor.
I Took One More Look Into Her Terrified Before Driving My Claw Straight Through Her Stomach Instantly Killing Her, As My Claws Easily Cut Through Her Organs.
I Then Turned To The Chubby Kid Who Seemed Even More Horrified Than Before However A Little More Relieved Too. I Gave Him A Slight Nod Before Walking Back Into The Darkness, Sure Junko Will Probably Kill Me Since Most Agents Aren't Meant To Kill Humans, Eh But Like I Give A Shit About What She Says?
The Rain Was Heavy However I Eventually Arrived At A Red Door. This Door Led To A Camouflaged Building Which Was As Big As Kyoto Tower. As I Turned The Handle On The Door It Revealed A Small Elevator With A Keypad With Nine Numbers.
As I Walked Into The Elevator, It Was Pristine And Well Furnished Due To The Building Being High Tech Everything Looked Like It Was Out Of A Sci-Fi Movie. While The Elevator Roared As It Went Upwards, I Readjusted The Cuffs Of My Shirt Along With My Collar. I Took Alot Of Time With My Pride And Presentation, I Always Looked The Best Even In A Battle.
I Soon Arrived At The Top Floor, The Room Was Practically Empty With A Few Couches And A View Of The Entire Due To The Tower Being Surrounded In Windows Reminiscent Of A Large Observation Tower.
On The Right Couch Sat Wesley, Attained The Nickname "Dusty" Due To The Guy Always Smelling Like Sand. This Wasn't A Surprise Since He Wore Clothes Reminiscent Of A Cowboy, He Carried Two Large Golden Pistols Around With Him. Unfortunately, His Personality Is Nothing Short Of Hot Headed And Reckless, A Pain In The Ass To Work With.
Along With Him Sat Aimai-sa, The Guy Was A Full Cyborg His Entire Body Decorated In A Nanosuit. Making Him A Worthy Opponent However He Ranks Low Due To Being Quite Weak In His Battlefield Intelligence.
On The Other Couch Was Ikui, Nicknamed The Guy In The Suit, Nobody Knows Much. However, The Old Guy Is Full Of Surprises And People Suggest He Uses A Similar Transformation Skill Like Me, Only That He Transforms Into A Terrifying Gigantopithecus. I Was Always Wary Of That Guy.
In Front Of Me Stood The Leader, Junko Mifune She Was Strong In Her Own Right But She Annoyed Me With Her Constant Disrespect Of My Preaching. "So You're Finally Back?" She Spoke With Authority And Seriousness As Always As I Bowed In Respect.
"Yes And I Found Some Interesting Information About The Devil And The Succubus Including Their Human Husband" I Replied With The Same Level Of Seriousness But With A Tinge Of Excitement Wanting To Know Our Next Move.
"Hmmm, That's Great But I See You Came Empty Handed" Junko Yelled Stomping Her Foot On The Ground With A Scowl. "I Apologize However The Boy Mixed His Blood With The Girls He Became Stronger, It Was A Mistake Of Your Poor Research And Because Of You I Came Under Equipped!" I Retorted As She Looked On At Me With A Sigh And An Understanding Face For Once.
"Ugh... We'll Send In Those Crazed Magical Girls To Deal With Them Then, They'll Make Quick Work Of Them" She Announced As I Looked Back At With A Grin. I Couldn't Wait To See The Head Of The And His Disgusting Vile Wives....
God Would Be Proud Of Me.
