Orchestra of Death

We were walking back to the Silverwing following the others. Most of the walk was uneventful until some guy in a white suit started charging at Jav with a blue phase-blade or something. About half way the guy started speeding up as his eyes glowed and lunged at Jav. He managed to dodge but dropped Sarah in the process. She sat up groaning as she held her head and seemed to recognize the other guy.

The guy with the sword started yelling at Jav. “I’m going to kill you like I did your colleague you corpse-fucking piece of shit!” I was staring at the spectacle and quickly put myself in front of the others. This guy just called Jav a corpse fucker..... If he is a necrophiliac, I’m going to kick him in the balls so hard.....

Jav easily dodged another of the man’s attacks. “I do not fuck corpses. A corpse and a zombie are two different things!” .....Just what the hell was going on?

The man’s eyes glowed brighter as Jav continued. “Besides, I don’t even know who you’re talking about, the only recent family death was- Wait a bloody minute, you killed Mary!?” Chocolate was shaking as he hid behind me and Flare.

The man smirked viciously. “Shotgun blast to the face. Felt awesome bro.”

Jav glared at the man as he held his cane at a downward angle, “Alright, now I’m pissed. Claymore, activate.” The cane then turned into a large black sword which he held in both hands and prepared to strike.

“Compensating for somethin’ Necro-fag?” The man taunted with a smirk.

Chocolate was confused and scared. I didn’t know what was happening anymore and just wanted to scream.

So I did. “Just what the heck is going on!?”

Jav glanced at me in annoyance, The mark on his eye became glaringly noticeable. How the heck did I miss that?

“Shut up.” Jav then raised his sword above his head to strike and said, “Heavy Swing!”

When he brought his sword down, The man quickly reacted by with his own sword. The fact that the ground cracked from the force of the blow was.....Disheartening. Maybe kicking him in the balls wasn’t going to happen. The other guy then kicked Jav in the chest, causing him to stumble.

The attacker began slashing away at Jav’s chest, sending blood splattering onto the ground with each strike. After a couple seconds of slashing, the guy jumped into the air and double kicked him in the chest and sent him flying a few feet.

After struggling to stay standing, Jav looked at the man with hate in his eyes, “God damned brat...” Leveling his hand with the attacker, he shouted, “Lock and Key!”

The man’s body locked up and his eyes widened with anger. “Damn old man...”

With some strain, Jav ran up to The guy and placed his hand on his chest, “Death Siphon.” I don’t really know what happened after that cause I was busy trying to calm Chocolate down and keep him from seeing any more of the fight. They just kept going at each other, there was even another boom from when Jav’s sword smashed into the ground a second time.

Eventually Arlosia started whispering to Sarah.

Sarah sighed. “No, just... just don’t.”

Arlosia seemed disappointed that whatever her idea was got rejected. “Aw come on, why not? Guy’s a complete prick!”

She sighed and shook her head, shaking out of whatever daze she was in from waking up, “I’ll try and reason with him.” She walked over to the crazed maniac, who was still glaring at Jav, and kicked him the shin, “Would you fucking stop already!?”

The guy began hopping on one foot as he held his knee. “OW! What the fuck!?!” He swore in pain.

“I’m sorry, I guess I wasn’t clear enough in negotiation, let me try again.” She then kicked his other shin, making him fall to the ground. “Understand yet, or should I continue?”

The guy rose from the ground he fell on and glared at her, “Was that really fucking necessary?” He asked angrily.

“Oh, I don’t know,” Sarah said sarcastically pointing to Jav while she glared at him, “Was that?”

The guy rolled his eyes, “I’ve fought that bag of cock’s relative, I’d have to say yes since she was one big psycho bitch with kleptomania of people and turning them into one big sack of fuck! I ain’t going to let him continue her work, not after all that work I put in to stopping it.”

Jav yelled from his place on the ground, “For your information, I don’t want to continue her work. I left the family ages ago! Hell, I’m glad you bloody killed her! Mostly.” I more than likely missed something while calming Choc down cause it sounded like he was mostly glad his sister was dead.......

The guy shouted back, “I don’t give a beavers nipple! You’re a damn necromancer, and I don’t trust you, since your relative didn’t exactly help paint a good picture of them!” Holy Shit...... Jav is a necromancer?! That’s...........pretty cool actually. WAY better than a necrophiliac by my call.

Sarah slashed him lightly across the face with her fingernails, “Alright then, fuck off you criminal piece of shit.”

The guy stared with wide eyes before he narrowed them and made them glow. “The fuck did you just call me...?” He whispered with rage. Fuck Sarah just pissed him off again....

“I’m sorry,” She said, “but I don’t associate with mobsters, after how bad an image the Blancas painted for me. It’s obvious you’re no better than them.”

At that point, a stream of mist was literally flowing out of his eyes as he began giving off a ice blue aura. Just what the fuck was this guy!? As soon as it came though, it disappeared. The fire died, and so did the glowing of his eyes. He started to chuckle before it turned into a full laugh.

Sarah looked at him in confusion “What? What’s so funny?”

The guy shook his head as he smirked, “Clever girl. I see what you’re doing. Not exactly that subtle, are you?” He asked with humor.

She shrugged and smiled, “Got you to stop though, didn’t it?” He laughed again.

“Yeah, I guess it did.” he replied with his own smile before he turned serious. “Still, I don’t trust him. Like I said his relative didn’t help, but I won’t attack him.” Okay, this is getting confusing... and I don't even know this guy's name.

Flare tapped me on the shoulder about then. “James can you help me lift Michael? The commotion seems to have died down enough for us to get him inside.” I nodded in agreement and We all headed inside. Choc stayed on the opposite side of me that was facing the crazy guy that was now talking casually with Sarah.

If I ever see him again I will punch him in the face. We got upstairs and helped Flare get Michael into the room. Afterwards, I took Chocolate back to the Hummingbird Inn to get some rest. As soon as we got to our room I laid down and sighed. “Today has been all kinds of crazy.”

Chocolate was in his own bed and just stared at his pillow. He kept looking over to me and tossing around on his bed before he jumped out and walked over to mine. “Mr. James... c-can ah sleep with you tonight?”

I looked over and saw his watery eyes. You just can’t say no to something like that. It is physically and mentally impossible from how heart wrenching it is. I would have had caused a mass depression in all emotional existence if I did! “Sure kid, hop in.” He hopped up onto the bed and wormed his way under the covers, huddling close to my chest like a cat and we both fell asleep.
