Even after witnessing the debatable innocent die in front of them the small group refused to give up and unsheathed their weapons the middle aged man pulled out a two handed sword, the Younger behemoth of a man pulled up a giant mace and readied it. He usually preferred to wield his mace with a shield but it would have drawn to much attention so he left it behind, although most people would agree the massive mace he was using would have drawn far more attention. The goons already had their weapons out and had assumed a fighting stance. When they heard a body hitting the floor all of the thugs smiled at the small group.
"Janich now that's done come and join the fun."
"Oh man I think Janich must be really sick! He isn't looking so good."
Big boss man number one immediately turned around at the sound of the familiar voice. On the ground was not Christopher's body but the goon known as Janich with a hole stabbed into his throat. All eyes were drawn to the one everybody assumed would probably die easier then the women who were present.
"Sick!? he was stabbed!"
"Oh my god! who could have done that!?" yelled Christopher while acting surprised he shrugged his shoulders and held a hand to his open mouth while looking around with a shocked expression. "Come to think I only moved here being led to believe this was a safe neighborhood! OOh just let me find the bastard who sold me my home!"
"Are you fucking kidding me? You're holding the damn knife covered in blood!"
Christopher there for a moment the same dumb expression on his face, him and Big Boss man staring each other down in pure silence.
....
....
"He fell on it?"
"Fucking kill him!"
"Wait wait I don't want any trouble!" Christopher cried out. He began to fumble with the knife a few times before it was sent flying into the neck of the closest man to him. The men who had just been charging all stopped in their tracks their gaze fixed on the knife protruding from their comrades neck. Before anyone even realised Christopher had moved. He was ripping the knife through the mans flesh and took off running again so fast the spray of blood had not yet reached the ground when he was already on top of the next man. There was no longer any trace of the aloof smile that had been displayed across his face. Instead he now had the look of a cold blooded killer.
The hooded girl was completely bewildered by the gore that was now unfolding in front of her. The man who she thought to be the greatest coward she had ever known trying to run away with a stupid look on his face, was now killing her enemies faster then her mind could handle. He continued forward with a look that was terrifyingly cold, if she was not mistaking he had a tiny smile on his face too.
Having already dispatched three enemies he was closing in on the fourth person.
"Bastard!" the man shrieked swinging his sword at him. Chris simply ducked the blade and sliced through the mans tendon as he came back up. Having lost control of his hand the sword went flying out of his grip. The man yelled out in agonizing pain and desperately swung his good arm at Chris trying to punch him. He just simply dodged to the side and stabbed the man in the neck. The look of terror and impending death gripped the mans face. Chris then spun him around to face his comrades. The man silently reached out towards his friends wordlessly mouthing at them as blood poured out of him, all the other goons could do was look on completely horrified by what they were witnessing. Christopher then ripped through the mans neck with the blade grabbed hold twisted his head and ripped it clean off his body.
"Holy shit!"
Big Boss man and his goons were very familiar with the battlefield and what living on the streets could be like. This on the other hand was a whole new level of terrifying. The look of terror and pain was still clearly seen on the face of their decapitated comrade. This was a type of shock combat none of them had ever witnessed before.
The Hooded girl began vomitting uncontrollably having just witnessed a mans head being ripped from his body. After the brief pause to take in what they had just witnessed, her guards came back to their senses. While the enemies attention was elsewhere and still had their backs turned to them the towering youth brought his mace down on the head of the man closest to him. Blood, bone fragments and brain tissue went flying in every direction splattering the walls, even a little had landed on the feet of the women present. The same time the middle aged man cut the head off the other with his Broadsword the head rolled around on the floor coming to rest near the remaining thugs. Now only two enemies remained, Big boss number one and another both caught in between Christopher and the small group. Christopher stared down big boss man number one. Holding the head out in front of him, His emotionless face slowly began to turn into a smile. Witnessing the brutality, and this smile, Big Boss
Half a boss man number one Still had not realized what happened to him. Confused and sweating profusely he could not figure out why he was on the ground, All he did know is for some reason it felt like he had the wind knocked out of him. The thing was though nobody was near him that could have touched him. It was then he glanced to the side, laying next to him was half an arm and some ones legs. ' I wonder who those belong to.. Hey i got the same pair of pants...' The moment half a boss man thought that, he began to feel and immense amount of pain.Chris slowly turned to face Half a boss man number 1 and squat down on the ground staring him in the eyes. Boss man could hardly believe this was the same man who he called out to. He had brought his own death down upon him. Chris glanced down next to him and his smile grew even more."You son of a bitch" whispered half a boss man. ' I remember hearing once that the grim reaper takes on many forms. Who would have
"Well alright then you have deal." "Your highness please tell me you're joking? You are entrusting your fate to someone who is clearly insane! Possibly mentally unstable." Braum whispered in her ear, as he eyed Christopher who was currently taking any valuables and money from the dead men he had just killed. "Crazy? Possibly I'll give you that much. But before you pass judgement you should walk a mile in that persons shoes." Chris shrugged talking over his shoulder. "Although not mentally unstable. Really id say what really stands out in my mind as crazy is the fact that for whatever reason i agreed to help you." "See! He even agrees he's probably crazy!" "Braum that's enough. You have to remember the entire reason for this situation is actually our fault. While i trust you, Garrett, and Vanessa more then anyone else alive, the fact is we need help if were going to get out of here." The middle aged man who's name was apparently Braum let out a deep si
The trip to his home was happily uneventful. Christopher had managed to persuade everyone to remove the hoods. Sure enough it was just as he said. Multiple patrols had passed right by them but none recognized the princess. Although she was technically one of the most prominent figures in the world. The leaders barely ever interacted with their people, if they didn't have someone there to announce their presence or flying their banner then nobody would be any the wiser. There was no way for them to just pull up a picture of her, and she had never taken place in court politics so very few nobles had ever even met her. "Well this is it. Try not to expect to much." Christopher announced once they arrived to his home. On the outside it looked to bluntly put it, completely unimpressive. There was nothing that made it stand out from others. It was not immaculate by any means, but also was not some run down hovel. If one was being completely honest it actually looked average when co
The spoon hit Sarah splattering a little bit of food on her clothing. Although it was light and didn't physically hurt her. It still hurt, the force of Elise's emotions is what she really felt. The look of both Sadness and anger she saw in her face, it was painful to see. Sarah wasn't really sure what she did to anger the girl so much but for some reason at that moment all she felt was guilt. Even without fully understanding what it was that upset her so much it almost felt as if Sarah had just broken her heart, reminding her of her father forcing her into this marriage with Halbert whom she loathed from the bottom of her heart. She wanted nothing to do with him. For whatever reason her father who she had trusted and been able to confide in turned his back on her immediately for the opportunity of some political gain. Heart break was a fresh wound she was growing familiar with unfortunately. "You insolent-!" Braum began to yell, but then felt steel being pressed agai
It was obvious Elise had very mixed feelings about the whole situation. As she looked into his eyes she was upset but also wasn't sure if it was his fault, her fault or really either of their faults for that matter. "I guess I should apologize to them and hear the whole story. I'll prepare more food for everyone else as well. Although tomorrow we will have to go out and get more." "They will only be here for a few days. I would definitely prefer to keep things peaceful while they are staying here." Smiled Christopher. Christopher went back to the living room area to find everyone still standing looking on edge. The way they were standing someone would half expect they were terrified to sit down, almost as if they expected the furniture they chose to sit on to blow up or a blade to come shooting across the room and beheading them. "Will you all relax. Gods you're making me anxious and I'm in my own home. I promise that she's not going to come out
The entire group was stunned. No one had any idea of this happening apart from Vanessa who had been Sarah's closest confidant for her entire life. The night that had happened Vanessa had stayed up for hours trying to console the princess as she cried her eyes out. She allowed her to cry that night until her eyes were red and swollen and eventually she was finally able to fall asleep. The next morning she was called unsightly by her own father and was forced to have breakfast in her room, a few bites into her food she could no longer contain her sadness and began to cry all over again. Her fathers cruelty seemed to know no limits. Vanessa was enraged for Sarah. It took everything she had not to rush into the throne room and drive a blade into the part of his body that the heart should be, although she questioned if the bastard actually had one. Thankfully the wedding planning had not yet truly begun. Sarah decided to go visit her oldest sister whom she was very close to
Everyone was stunned. Just how arrogant and shameless could a member of the royal family be!? Even Garrett was unable to keep his silence. ""I Should have Splattered his fucking brains." He said through grit teeth. Sarah walked over and put her hand on his hand trying to sooth his anger. "You can't protect me 24/7 you know." For the moment he refused to meet her eyes and just looked at the ground the feeling of shame weighing down upon him. Clearly frustrated with his own limitations. He didn't respond but nod his head to her. She smiled at him gently and gave him a hug. "You truly are the best cousin someone can ask for." She said. This managed to get a smile out of him, although he still didn't raise his head. "I can see how that would definitely force someone to speed up their plans a little faster." Elise admitted sympathetically. As a woman she could definitely sympathise with what happened. "He didn't manage to do anything, you g
