[Note this chapter starts off pretty dark.]
"Fuck.." Senior Hei Xiong grunted.
Being snubbed like that wasn't exactly new to him. Miss Malachite, in charge of the Spider syndicate had done the same. Disrespected him, looked at him like he was nothing and mocked him.
"All I wanted was to have a little- ..fucking fun!" He grunted again, remembering the woman who refused him. Her face and body were unlike anything he'd seen before.
Sure, he'd acquired well-endowed women before. Quite a few were pretty too. Failed Huntresses and drop outs weren't that rare in Vale. Some resort to being criminals, some become cops and some just move on. But the desperate few land into his hands. Their beauty and fit, sexy bodies made them rather expensive prostitutes and strippers. As the boss, he could always get a free 'taste' of his products whenever he damn well pleased.
Then there was the woman who visited him today. She was a few steps up from even those failed Huntresses. As soon as he got her picture, he dropped all of his business and sent for her.
By all means, if she had just drank the special concoction he'd given her, he'd have been indulging himself by now. Instead, he had to do something about all his pent up frustration and lust.
He had taken the first redhead prostitute in his establishment he could find and began to unleash his lust on the woman. His hands wrapped around her neck, squeezing until his knuckles turned white while he ravaged the woman.
"Fff-uh..." And when he finished, she was no more.
Such things weren't rare in the gang but still, only the boss had such violent sexual tendencies. The two subordinates assigned to be his bodyguards grimly looked at the poor woman as their boss cleaned himself up and zipped up his trousers.
"Send someone to clean that up. I have to talk to the brat. He has to know that bitch.." Senior Hei Xiong spat, leaving for the first floor.
One of the men stayed behind and made a call, while the other dutifully followed behind Senior Hei Xiong. The nightclub was still open, though it had started to die down, given it was now two in the morning. Senior Hei Xiong walked over to the bar, where his son stood, cleaning off a few glasses.
"Father." Junior greeted with a nod.
*Smack!*
Senior hit his son with the back of his hand, baring his teeth, which were tightly grit in anger.
"Do not give that shit. You understand me? Who the fuck was that bitch? You sent me a picture and some bullshit about 'business' so you must know her." Senior demanded, slamming his fist on the top of the bar table.
Junior sighed to himself and looked at his Father as if he were some bug that he found. The smack did nothing but annoy him, given he had his aura unlocked. Senior did as well, but unlike Junior, he wasn't even somewhat trained. If this were all that was wrong with him, he'd have no issue with his Father. But his flaws, casual disregard for his own people and utter failure to recognize someone capable was going to ensure he died a miserable death.
"A newcomer in Vale. She's from Mistral. She was looking for a good place for her 'workers' to settle. I think she figured she could have her women set up on the third floor." Junior replied, keeping direct eye contact with his Father.
Senior wasn't completely inept, of course. The man was old, but he wasn't an idiot. One didn't have a position like his for this long while being stupid. Luckily, Junior knew his Father well and developed a powerful poker face while dealing with him. Lying to him came easy, especially when it aligned with his Father's views on women.
"Hmph. Perhaps I was too hasty then. She would have been mine in time anyway. I'll have to acquire her and those women myself. Where is she staying?" Senior calmed down, demanding an answer from his son.
'Hook, line and sinker. He's fully confident in going himself if it's a bunch of women.' Junior suppressed his desire to smirk and cleared his throat.
"She gave me her number. Said she was staying at a motel with her girls, near the waterfront. I suspect she'll go for the Spider gang next." Junior replied, watching the irritation return to his Father's face.
"Motel huh.. And on the waterfront. Could only be the No-tell. I need five men to come along. Bring the SUV's. I'm not letting that piece of ass pass through my fingers." Senior snorted and started ordering his subordinate to get to work and bring four more men along.
As soon as the men were gathered, Senior Hei Xiong strut outside, confident in his success.
Junior watched him go, smirking to himself.
"Zàijiàn fùqīn" He bade his Father farewell in East Mistralian before getting back to cleaning.
The ride was quiet. Senior began to imagine the sheer beauty of the women that redhead brought with her. His weakness was evident. Women. He underestimated them? Absolutely. Huntresses? To him, they were just used for morale, appeal and only ever faced weaker Grimm. The only formidable woman he'd ever known was Lil' Miss Malachite, the leader of the Spider gang. So, when it came to women, he often let his lust guide him.
"Boss, we're here. No-Tell." The driver, a younger gangster with slicked back black hair and sunglasses informed.
"Good. Pistols and SMGs, boys. Just in case they're packing or have a man with 'em." Senior stepped out of the black SUV and lit up a cigar.
The motel was mostly empty. Only people who came here were trying to lay low. Any two-bit thief who got too much heat from the VCPD ended up here. That, and some of the sex workers who preferred beds without disgusting stains and bugs in them.
The gangsters stepped out of the vehicles and nodded, hands kept close to their concealed firearms. They were about to enter when Senior stopped and looked over to the side of the building. There, beside a dumpster and leaning against the brick wall was the woman he'd come for.
"Hah.. What's this? You spoke so eloquently and looked at me as if I was an insect earlier. And you hide out here in this dump like a rat? You should have accepted my drink back then." Senior said, contempt oozing from his every word as he began to walk over, pulling out his pistol and leveling the barrel at her.
"Uh... Boss..?" One of his subordinates called out in confusion.
Senior ignored them and walked right up to her. Her eyes locked onto his, though her expression was lacking. Senior instantly became agitated and grabbed onto her white dress shirt.
"Understand now, you're mine. My property. A fine ass like yourself.." Senior grunted, grabbing a handful of her soft ass as he pulled her close. A haze of lust began to take him over.
"Boss...!?" One of his subordinates coughed awkwardly while the rest just stood there in shock.
"Hmph. Lemme show you boys how it's done. This is how you get a fine woman.." Senior snorted coldly before forcefully pulling the woman in and kissing her on the lips. His tongue invaded her mouth as he held her at gunpoint.
The pleasure, pride and feeling of dominance faded away soon after he started to fondle and french kiss the woman. Why? Because the appearance of the woman quickly faded away, revealing a very disheveled, unwashed, toothless homeless man with his pants down, just having finished taking a shit behind the dumpster. His face was covered in warts, pimples, tears and snot from the terror of having a gun aimed at him while some older man started to sexually assault him.
Immediately, Senior broke the kiss and started retching. Unfortunately, he stepped in the homeless man's stool as he backed away and started to throw up.
Then he heard it, laughing and wheezing. He looked up and saw 'Ryuko', along with three other girls and a boy on the second floor, overlooking them. Ryuko was laughing with her hand covering her mouth, while a ginger girl, tanned girl and white haired rabbit Faunus were wheezing. The boy looked disturbed but also on the verge of laughing.
It took Senior a few seconds to understand what actually happened, but when he did, he nearly tore his vocal chords shouting.
"KILL THEM!! KILL THEM RIGHT FUCKING NOW!!!!"
The gangsters began to reach into their suits, prompting the poor homeless man to start running for his life. The first to grab his SMG was the first to get a brand new hole in the center of his forehead, courtesy of Yin, who had just pulled out the Malorian Arms pistol from her inventory.
"My bad~ My bad~ I was just laughing too hard.. Ah~ Nora, care to do the honors?" 'Ryuko' asked, seeing the rest of the gangsters hesitate after seeing their man die so suddenly.
"Legs? Oh Fearless Leader! I love you!" Nora laughed as she jumped off the second floor and swung her hammer at the closest gangster's legs.
*CRAAACK!*
Both of the ganger's femurs broke on contact with Nora's rather hefty hammer. He fell to the ground like a puppet that had its strings cut while Nora began to rampage. The shots coming from their subpar weapons harmlessly dinging off Nora's aura. The moment the gangster's realized they were facing a Huntress, they scattered. Not that it would do much good, as Nora was fast and completely determined to smash their legs to splinters.
"What the fuck..." Senior paled, seeing his men flee so quickly. He abandoned all hope of getting what he wanted that night and tried to run back to his SUV.
"Aw~ What? Leaving so soon? You wanted me, right? Here I am~" He heard the seductive, sultry voice that made his blood pressure rise earlier that night speak right behind him.
Her voice still made his blood pressure rise, but for an entirely different reason now. He looked behind him and truly saw her now. Not some random sex worker or pimp. A bonafide killer.
*BANG!*
Senior stumbled back, having taken a shot to the leg. It hurt, but he had aura, so the bullet hadn't penetrated. His survival instincts kicked in and he dumped his pistol's entire magazine at her.
"Oh you do have Aura. This only makes your misery last longer, you know?" She chuckled before her body blurred and her pistol struck him in the testicles, grazing the left one with enough force to dent the car door behind him.
Senior began to foam at the mouth as a cry akin to a strangled cat escaped his throat. The pain so intense he found himself blacking out completely.
"Tut~ Well, that's handled. Shia, Nora? Get the bodies in the trunk. Ren, here's three hundred lien, go find and pay that homeless guy for the trauma. Meet us back at the club when you're done. Oh and good work, Em. Really needed that laugh." Yin chuckled, her 'Ryuko' personality act fading as she gave out orders.
"Hehe.. It was nothing. Glad I could be of help." Emerald blushed.
Yin nodded and pat her head while Nora and Shia started to chuck the injured gangsters, Senior and the dead body into the trunk. Seeing as how nobody else was around, they quickly got into the SUV and drove off before VCPD could arrive.
Minutes later, Senior woke up as his body was crudely dumped onto the dirt. Looking around, he saw they were near Vale's massive wall, where the slums were.
*BANG!* *BANG!* *BANG!* *BANG!*
Four shots startled him as his eyes adjusted to the lights of the SUV shining in his face. Looking to his left, he saw his now dead subordinates. To his right, he saw 'Ryuko' and the girls with her. Before he could bluster and curse, he had a shovel thrown in his face while a gun was pointed at his crotch.
"Start digging, Senior Xiong~ I'd tell you to dig with your hands but we don't have all night." 'Ryuko' ordered.
Senior's face paled significantly. He'd seen this before, done mainly to traitors and sell-outs in gangs. He was going to dig his own grave, along with his men's. And if he refused? It wasn't simply going to be his death. He knew what she was aiming at.
So with terror in his heart and trembling hands, he began to dig.
By the tenth minute, he began to slow, hoping someone would hear or see what was happening and interfere.
By the twentieth, he realized nobody would come nor care. The people who lived in the slums kept to a simple creed of 'I didn't hear or see anything.' Something drilled into them when gangs did their business there.
By the fiftieth, the terror of his inevitable death made him start to weep and sob. Yet still, he shoveled. It was either torture and death or exhaustion and death.
By the eithtieth, he was shot in the spine and buried alive with no means of escape as the bodies of his subordinates were piled on top of him.
Turns out the torture may not have been the worst thing to happen after all..
