Rise of the Night/Run of Night

Shadowstep laid there with Lyla in his arms. He saw the scar and he knew who did it. The same man who beat Shadow all those years ago. His name was Vellix. He was the leader of the Dark Brotherhood. Congo had the members who weren't killed scattered across the nation, but Vellix stayed. For what reason Shadow didn't know but he was going to find out. He slid out from under Lyla once he made sure she was asleep. He placed the covers back on her so she didn't get cold. He got the spare clothes that Lyla gave him and looked though her clothes for the knife he saw her carrying. He found it and placed it on his right thigh. He left the hiding spot and went to the red light district.

No one cared about anyone in the red light district. Everyone that lived here was either a pimp ,whore, or killer. However they all were there when the Diamond Dongs took over the street so they knew better then to fuck with Shadow even though he was older. He knew of one bar where someone like Vellix would stay. The Wet Whore. A bar and brothel in one, people would rent out a room and could literally live there for as long as they wanted as long as they had the coin for it. He walked inside and not a single head turned to him. They were either too busy getting drunk, getting laid, or just didn't care anymore. Shadow walked over to the bar.

“I'm looking for a man with a V scar on his forehead.” Shadow said.

“We don't do custom orders nor do we sell information.” the bar keep said not even looking at him.

“Well this is Diamond Dong business and therefore it would help you to be willing to help us.” Shadow said calmly. The barkeep shot a look over to Shadow. Even if its been a while since the Diamond Dongs asked the people for help, no one refused them.

“Third floor room three zero one.. No one knows how you found out.” the barkeep said as she turned her attention to another costumer. Shadow smiled as he got the information he needed. He walked up the stairs to the third floor. He looked around till he found room three zero one. He rapped his knuckles against the door.

“Berry is that you? You better have my wine woman.” a disgruntled voice said from behind the door.

“A visitor from your past is her to see you.” Shadow said before kicking the door in. It took a couple of seconds for the man to respond to the door being shattered. He start to move to a gun that was sitting on the side table. Shadow wouldn't let him reach it or if he did he wouldn't let him get a shot off. Shadow grabbed the knife off his thigh and threw it at the gun. However the man was a drunken klutz and bumped the gun with his hand and the knife meet his hand sticking it to the table. He howled in pain like a wild animal, while Shadow simply walked over to the man and brought his right heel down against the man's jawbone.

“Who are you?” the man asked trying to pull the knife out of his hand.

“About 7 years ago you took my ears and left your mark. Then while I'm gone from my pack you attack her. Did you honestly think I wouldn't come after you.?” Shadow asked as he violently ripped the knife out, tearing bits of bone and flesh. The man's eye widen as he realized who was standing before him.

“So the the little bastard stand before me acting tough. I remember when we made you broken and bleeding.” he said gritting his teeth. Shadow grabbed him by the collar of a wore t shirt he was wearing and threw him into the hallway. Shadow placed the knife back in the sheath on his thigh and came out to the hallway. The man turned around and threw a feral left jab but it meet nothing but air as he moved in closer and slammed his fist into the mans face so hard that blood poured out of the mans nose. The man staggered back toward the stairs and railing and he tried to catch his footing. Shadow rushed forward closing the gap between the two and grasped his collard dragging him to railing that overlooked the bar.

“Maybe it's time to take a dive.” Shadow said as he threw the man over the railing. The man screamed as he fell and hit the ground with a sicking crack. Shadow jumped off the railing and slowed his decent with his shadow magic. The man had broken both legs. He grabbed the man and sat him on the bar laying down.

“I'm going to kill you for what you did to me and my friends Vellix.” Shadow said as he pulled the knife out.

“Shadow. Stop. Right. Now.” Congo said calmly with Shiva right beside him but his body spoke otherwise. Congo had his fist clenched tightly and the corners of his mouth were jumping up as she tried to keep a straight face instead of a raging snarl.

“Congo this isn't your business so stay the fuck out of it.” Shadow said calmly. That’s when Congo lost control and rushed forward. Shadow barely had time to drop the knife and right arm to guard against a kick from Congo. That's when Shiva knew it was gonna end up in a fight like old times only difference is that they weren't little kids and they weren't training.
