Evelyn follows the small group of thugs being careful not to get seen. She continues to follow them down the dimly lit streets of the night, staying in the shadows she uses her fast reflexes to quickly go between blindspots. However within 10 minutes of following her targets, she is met with sudden loud "Hey wait up!" Evelyn winced at the sound of the familiar voice. Marshall rushes over to her, when close enough Evelyn pulls him towards her then pushes him hard against the wall she was near. She quickly places her head over his month and signals for him to be quite.
Evelyn quickly and quietly peers from her current blindspot location. She lets out a relieved sigh when she notices that Marshall didn't give her away. She looks back to Marshall with anger in her eyes "What the hell man? Why are you here? I told you to go home" Evelyn say coldy. Marshall smiles weakly and runs a hand through his chestnut coloured hair "Well I can't let you go off into danger on your own...it be bad if something happened to you and I haven't even had the chance to ask you for a second date yet" Marshall explains nervously. Evelyn blushes slightly "Oh...right. Yeah I suppose that make's sense. Just stay close okay and do anything reckless" she replies quietly. Marshall smiles softly and takes Evelyn hand in his and they continue to follow the the thugs.
Meanwhile in the underground 221Please respect copyright.PENANAkcDi4oopCA
In an old rundown house
Levi and Farlan and their contact still await for the second party to arrive. The second party being at least 30 minutes late. As the first party and Farlan get more annoyed and impatient, Levi stays composed. Farlan walks over to Levi who's standing in a dark corner of the room "Hey if the second party doesn't show up do we still get paid" Farlan huffs in annoyance. Levi gives a quick glance to his friend "Making the contact is just constipated and taking a dump..." Levi says with a shrug. Farlan shakes his head in dismissal "What are the high valued iteams that will be exchanged anyway?..Seems kinda shady they have kept us in the dark about it" Farlan explains with a serious expression on his face. Levi crosses his arms and looks down at the ground in thought (Yeah...we have done this kinda work before but this is the first time we have not been given full information...) Levi nods to himself and looks up to his friend "...something is definitely off...keep your guard up" Levi explains quietly so the others can't hear them.
Some more time passes
Evelyn and Marshall have followed the group of thugs that captured Carmen to the the Underground while remaining unseen. While navigating through the empty streets Evelyn manged to acquire (stole) some hooded brown cloaks from a late night merchant who was well know in the underground for ripping people off. The cloaks helped them not to stand out as much as they were dressed in high ended attire with Marshall wearing a nice clean black suit and Evelyn wearing a white plated skirt and a frilly red blouse with a white bow tied around the collar.
They continue to follow the small group till they arrived at their destination, an old run down house that had most windows smashed and the roof was slightly slanted to the side. Evelyn pulled Marshall close to her in a dark corner of the corner of the outside of the house. There were mere inches apart from each other. Evelyn awkwardly looked away for she liked her personal space and doesn't like being too physically close to others often. Marshall didn't take much notice of how close they were and leaned in more to peer around the corner and watch the small group of thugs enter the old house after meeting another small group who seem to have two other bags (Probably two other victims) with them. Evelyn also appeared around the corner to ease the awkwardness of Marshall pushing up against her to look around the corner (This is too damn uncomfortable for me. Meh I need to focus on the situation at hand, if I don't this could end badly) she thinks to herself.
After both groups of thugs enter the old house, Evelyn looks to Marshall with determination in her eyes "Okay looks like this is the end of the road...there's a lot of them and there could be more inside but I could probably sneak in and and get the element of surprise. We could easily get the upper hand in this situation" Evelyn calmly explains to Marshall. Marshall eyes widen a little "What you can't be serious? There's like seven of them and two of us...also they probably can put up a decent fight and not to mention they will all probably have some kind of weapon" Marshall blurts out quietly in a crazed tone.
Evelyn let's out a small sigh before looking at the the ground "Listening there's some thing's about me you don't know...but I can't really explain right now but you're gonna have to trust me alright" Evelyn speaks sadly. Marshall raises a brow in curiosity at her words but remains silent. Evelyn raises her head to her friend "...Anyway I have a plan but if you want to leave now here's your chance man" Evelyn says looking into Marshall's eyes.
Meanwhile in the old rundown house
Levi and Farlan watch in curiosity as the second party arrives carry large brown bags over their shoulders that appear to be moving slightly. The slender tall thug leader walked to the centre of the poorly lit room and smiled to the messy middle aged women "Your late but I hope you brought some decent goods at least? My boss won't accept anything but the best as you know" he said tilting his head to the side. The woman huffed "Well duh...ya boss better pay up. This kinda work isn't easy" she said coldly.
Farlan nudges Levi slightly "I don't like this" he whispered. Levi nodded slightly, Levi glances at the woman "...what exactly is in those bags" he asked. The woman let out a small laugh "See for yourself...guys if you be so kind to show our clients the goods" she beamed. The bulky thugs placed the bags to the ground and in sync they pulled off the bags revealing three teenage girls all bound and gaged. The youngest looking no more then 13 years old. All three girls squealed and wimpered in fear and protest. Levi and Farlan eyes widen slightly in surprise and disgust, the woman noticed thier surprise and laughed "By the looks of your hired help they had no idea what they were getting themselves into huh?" She says to the tall client.
The lanky leader turns to Levi "Well it's a bit late to just walk away now isn't...if you not satisfied I'll double the pay how does that sound?" He explains. Levi remains silent and expressionless. The lanky man shrugs "I'll take that as a yes?..." he mumbles. The woman of the second group whispers to to her group quietly, the tall tattooed man notices and glares at her "What are you whispering about over there? Not planing on making some noise are you?" He says irritated. The woman cackles "Who me? Why would I do such a thing?" She says with malice in her tone of voice.
The tall tattooed man grumbles under his breath then walks over to the three bound teenage girls kneeling on the floor. He examines all three intervals one by one. While he does so Farlan leans into his friend "We aren't really taking his deal are we?...I mean I know we have to do shitty things down here but being part of a slave trade..." he whispers with a concerned look.
Just at that moment the back door burts open and a cloaked figure speeds out suddenly. The cloaked figure charges at one of the teenage thug kicking the young boy in the shin making him kneel in pain. The cloaked figure then rolls over the boy doing a roll kick to one of the other young thug. The lanky learder glares at the figure "Stop them!" He barks signaling all groups including Levi and Farlan. Suddenly the front door swings open revealing another cloaked figure who enters carging in swinging thier fists at the second group who brought the kidnapped the young girls. The first cloaked figure continues to knock down the first group of young thugs using graceful kick attacks flowing around the targets to dodge the attacks. Levi steps out of the dark corner of the room to fight the first cloaked figure. He rushes from behind unseen to his target quickly sending his knee into thier back. They groan in pain before collapsing to thier knees in pain. The second cloaked figure is doing well enough swings some punches till Farlan comes at them from the side and elbows them right in the jaw causing them to fall.
The fighting is now over as both cloaked figure have fallen. The lanky thug walks over to the first cloaked figure grabbing them roughly to bring them up to thier feet "Who the fuck do you think your messing with?" The lanky leader growls. The cloaked person groans in pain before spitting at the man. The slender man face get red with rage, he knees his victim in the chest hard. Levi then comes to stand next to them causing the hooded figure to gasp and freeze up, Levi grabs their hood and pulls it back revealing Evelyn's face.
