The Voodoo Boys

The next day in Pacifica, John and Nesiara were waiting for V before the church as they see people entering and leaving it.

"Have you seen her enter?" asks Nesiara as John was looking at the door while she was taking in the view.

"She might be already inside or she is baiting us. If it is the second thing I will use Dragon Slayer to make Pacifica disappear forever," says John seriously as they hear a motorcycle approaching.

It stopped and they see Jackie and V on it. V jumps off the bike when Jackie waves at John and Nesiara before leaving again since he and Goro needed to break into a warehouse later.

V approaches them and says, "We are a bit early."

"Yes, but we can wait for another fifteen minutes before we enter," says John as they had fifteen minutes before the reunion with the Voodoo Boys started.

"So how are we going to deal with them?" asks V curious as John looked at her.

"First we will ask for their help in a matter that will help you and Johnny which is to meet an old friend of Johnny or better said one of his exes," says John when Johnny manifests and leans against John.

"Can you ask him which ex? I had so many of them," says Johnny to V who just rolled her eyes.

"It is Alt Cunningham," says Nesiara as she could see and hear Johnny not like John.

Johnny suddenly stopped everything he was doing as he was standing still before he gets all excited and says, "I should have known that she made it out of Mikoshi when I opened a way for her."

"Who is Alt Cunningham?" asks V confused when John sighs.

"She was known to be the best Netrunner the world has ever witnessed going by the books I have read but compared to my aunt she might lose," says John as Johnny just looks at John angrily.

"She would never lose," says Johnny angry when Nesiara smirks.

"Oh, she could since John's aunt thinks at lightspeed making it impossible to defeat her since she learns things far too fast. Give her three days and Alt Cunningham would look like a grandma compared to his aunt trust me she left many experts of my family look like greenhorns," says Nesiara as John looks at his watch.

"It is time to go in," says John in a commanding tone as Nesiara stands straight while saluting, making John sigh while she only smirked at him.

"I am not my grandfather," says John as it was a running joke to the family to salute Jack when he said things in a commanding tone because of his Superhero name being Soldier Zero.

"But sometimes you sound like him," says Nesiara as she took the lead and opened the doors of the church while, "We are at the objective, sir. What now?"

"Stop it," says John feeling defeated

by Nesiara's act as they entered the church and they see a lot of people inside it celebrating something.

John pulled his Dragon Slayer out of thin air before he swings it once around him cutting the roof cleanly off before saying in a threatening tone, "I didn't come to play games. If you don't show yourself, Pacifica will become a cemetery from today on."

No one said anything thinking John was bluffing when he suddenly swung his sword killing every adult inside the church as he separated their heads and some shoulders from the torso.

The church was now in a panic as John says, "We are going to use plan B."

"Plan B?" asks Nesiara confused not knowing what John was talking about.

"Necromancy," says John seriously as V was shocked by what John did to the civilians just a moment ago while blood was filling the church floor when Johnny appears beside her.

"He really wasn't joking before," says Johnny nervous from seeing what happened.

John walked over corpses when V wanted to stop him but she got pulled back by Nesiara who says, "He is doing it for you."

"What do you mean with he is doing this for me?" asks V confused when John kicked against a wall breaking it completely before advancing.

"John and I have already innocent blood on our hands compared to you who only did her job," says Nesiara seriously as the children ran out of the church in fear.

John killed every person that stood between him and his objective when Justice appears before him before asking, "Is this really necessary?"

"I would have killed them anyway later on," says John stating the truth since they didn't value a human life why should he do the same against them.

He was resting Dragon Slayer on his shoulder as he walked some stairs down finding himself in the catacomb of the church it seemed when he sees people looking at him with blue eyes.

"You can't hack me since I am a hundred percent organic," says John coldly as the people turned their back on him before John swung his sword at them breaking even a pillar that was in the middle of the room.

The intestines of his opponents were covering the walls and ground as he didn't want to give them a fast death but a cruel one in which they were still alive to see a demon before they die.

They began to shoot at him but only found out that the bullets just fall to the ground after impacting his skin. John then throws Dragon Slayer in the direction of his opponent.

It pierced through one before John appeared beside the sword holding it in its right hand again when they looked at his blood-red eyes while John only stared at them coldly before pulling his sword out.

"What are you?" asks one of them scared in Haitian Creole when John opens his mouth.

"I am your Death," says John coldly back in Haitian Creole before he swings his sword separating the upper body from the lower body making the person feel excruciating pain.

John continued on his path as he knew that the Voodoo Boys were trapped like before him as he continues to descend and he finds a big man and a woman before a group having their hands in the air.

"What are you doing?" asks John coldly in Haitian Creole surprising the group.

"We give up. We can't possibly win against you," says the woman nervous hoping that John wouldn't kill people that have given up.

They thought wrong as John's sword pierced through the tall man pinning him against the subway train before John looks at them and says, "It is too late to give up. I gave you a chance and you called me here. I didn't need you, I needed your skills."

John's eyes developed tomoes as they connected with each other before dragging them all into Tsukuyomi before he says, "But you thought you could use us after what I said before to Mr. Hands. I will make Pacifica disappear and you will all watch me doing it over and over again."

John destroyed Pacifica over and over inside Tsukuyomi making the group hear the screams of the people that survived while the streets were flooded with the blood of the innocent.

The group was soon broken as John killed them before ending Tsukuyomi making their lifeless bodies fall to the ground. Then dark green mana began to gather on John's palm as he recited a spell before the energy entered the bodies of the dead people

They slowly stood up as a dark green aura was covering them when John says, "Prepare everything to send a person behind the Blackwall."

The bodies nod and begin to work and John stretches his hand out making Dragon Slayer fly toward his hand. John catches it and he swings it rapidly to get the blood off it.

Then Dragon Slayer disappears in thin air when V and Nesiara caught up to him as Nesiara could see that John used Necromancy as told before.

She wasn't happy with it since she knew the consequences but they needed to get V behind the Blackwall and NetWatch isn't going to help them in this matter since they would see it as too dangerous.

V wasn't feeling right at the moment as her lunch was trying to come out the way it came it from all the gore John produced just to take revenge for what they did to Evelyn.

"Judy will be pleased to hear that you took care of the people involved with the incident," says V as she tries to keep everything inside.

She has seen gore before but this was a new height in her career as a merc. Nesiara was using a calming spell on V so she would calm down when John took the lead again walking towards where the corpses were preparing everything.

One of the corpses approaches them and V pulls her gun out thinking it wanted to attack them when Nesiara stops her. V then sees that it had a Netrunner suit in its hands which was handed to V who looked at the couple confused.

"Why did she give me a Netrunner suit?" asks V a bit confused as John looks at her.

"Because you and Johnny will be going through the Blackwall to meet with Alt. I and Nesiara can't follow you there but a friend of my grandfather will help you there since he was sleeping the whole time right in there," says John before pointing at V's head or better said her neck.

Johnny appears behind John and says surprised, "Wait, you have another visitor in your head."

"Graves, wake up," says John not hearing Johnny as V looked at John pissed when a rough-looking man smoking a cigar appears before V.

"What the hell," says V surprised as Graves looks at V confused before he turns around and sees John.

"Damn, he isn't even under the ground yet and they give me a new partner," says Graves a bit angry when he turns to V and says, "I am Graves, I used to be the A.I. of Jack Parker before he ascended. And you are?"

"V," says V as she didn't want to reveal her real name when Graves takes the cigar into his hand before looking at her seriously.

"Yo, we have to work together temporarily until you are down with your business behind the Black-something or whatever it is called. I would appreciate some trust since I took some time to help you since a member of the Parker family asked for help," says Graves before placing the cigar back on his lips to continue smoking again.

"Valerie, I don't have a family name," says V as Graves looks at her and nods.

"Graves Parker, also known as the Hellhound by someone named Johnny," says Graves making V laugh out loud.

"Did you hear that Johnny," says V as it was quite a coincidence for Graves to be called Hellhound by another person called Johnny.

"He doesn't look like a Hellhound to me," says Johnny looking at Graves when Graves grabs him and throws him to the ground.

"You will soon find out Silverhand," says Graves as he got all the information on Johnny from John before being placed in V's head.

John looked at V confused since he couldn't see nor hear the interaction between Graves and Johnny while Nesiara only giggled beside him when he says, "V, we have no time to waste."

"Right," says V as she puts the Netrunner suit on before Nesiara took her clothes so she won't forget them later on.

The corpses all sit down on a chair while V was put in an ice bath to keep her cool during she is on the other side while John looked at the unconscious body with a worried expression.
