The Battle

[Damon's POV]

I was shocked by my own guttural strength. The door weighed at least 300 pounds and I was lifting it easily.

I jammed the door into its hinges and walked into the room. I could see that they were prepared for me as they all stood, shining flash lights at me.

When they stared for a while and realized it was me they all burst into laughter, they must have thought I was a sitting duck and that I'd fallen right into their trap, little did they know that I was the predator and they were the prey.

'I need to find a way to take out their light sources, one of them has a gun, he's the one I need to target first. If I can get my hands on his gun, I can use it to shoot the other flashlights from their hands, but then I'd also be blinded by the darkness.' I thought.

'System, do you have a night vision function?' I asked.

<Yes, would the host like to activate night vision mode?>

[Yes] [No]

'Perfect' I thought. In my early teenage days, Benjamin would take me to the shooting range on our property and train me on the use of guns. I'd go there whenever I had a squabble with my family and practice shooting targets to let out my worries.

A weird addiction and I became very good at it.

I'd become very proficient with it and so taking out their flashlights wouldn't be a problem.

'Yes, activate it' I thought.

<Understood >

*Activating night vision mode*

<Night vision mode has been successfully activated.>

I blinked my eyes and saw that my sight had changed color. Everything looked green, but I could see the dark corners more clearly now, it would suffice.

All this happened in mere moments in real time, I'd just stopped walking to process it.

I heard someone who I assumed to be their leader speak to me.

"Don't take another step!" He screamed. I saw Noelle sitting down with a bag over her head, she wasn't moving, they'd probably knocked her out.

He was hiding sheepishly behind her. 'What a pitiful sight' I thought.

"Now I don't know how you found us, but you're here early, that's good. I don't know what your plan is but you're clearly outnumbered and outgunned so I suggest you surrender before you get hurt." He shouted.

I looked around and noticed that his crew were starting to regain their confidence and alleviating their fear. That was his way of assuring them that he was still in control.

~Ding!~

*Notice*

Transfer complete.

<All martial arts techniques known in history have been transferred to the hosts memory.>

It came earlier than I'd expected but it was perfect, taking these guys out wouldn't be a problem.

I was so confident that I began to laugh loudly, I removed my face cap and threw it to the floor.

"What's so funny?" Their leader screamed in annoyance.

"Unfortunately for you guys, I don't consider any of you a threat. Don't worry, this will be over quickly." I said firmly, grinning.

It was finally time to take action, I readied myself for battle and entered a crouching position as I faced the guy with the gun.

He stared at me in confusion and fear and his hands started shaking.

'Foresight' I thought.

<Skill activated.>

In my sight, I saw myself running toward the guy at lightning speed and he shot wildly, causing me to get hit in the shoulder by a bullet and eventually leading to me getting captured.

'Foresight is honestly a broken skill' I thought and was about to make a move when I was alerted by the system.

~Ding!~

'I'll figure out what future sight is later, right now I need to focus' I thought.

All this happened in a moment and in the next moment. I bolted toward the guy with the gun at lightning speed and stopped only at point blank range.

He panicked by my sudden movement and staggered backward. "Don't shoot!" The leader screamed but it was too late and he pulled the trigger. I already knew this would happen and with my newfound speed I sidestepped to the right.

The man stared at me in shock, right before his eyes I had dodged a bullet and in the next instant, I karate chopped him hard on the neck, knocking him out.

He collapsed to the floor and before the others could react, I picked up the gun and shot the flashlights off their hands with pinpoint accuracy.

The room had been completely darkened but I could still see perfectly, thanks to the night vision mode.

I dashed toward the first guy with lightning speed and hit him in the head with the gun and he screamed and fell to the ground, unconscious.

I sprinted toward another and kicked him hard against the wall, and he hit it and collapsed to the floor.

'I shouldn't waste any more time' I thought and I cleared the room off all the guys there, knocking them all unconscious, leaving only one of them standing, their leader.

As I took them out one by one he screamed at me, "What are you!". He must've thought I was some monster.

I was sure he couldn't see me and he still cowered behind Noelle, and so with lightning speed I ran behind him and before he could react, I had my gun to his head.

"Surprise!, don't move" I said as I loaded the trigger. He turned behind me and fell to the floor when he saw me.

I could see the fear in his eyes as he stared at me and I smiled widely, in victory.

I had won, the battle had gone easier than I expected and I'd now brought the final boss to his knees.
