Chapter 6 - Chapter 6 Shadow or Not?

Fate and Crimson Ch6

Arc 1 Chapter 6

It looked like it would take forever for the night to end as the moonlight was shining on a near by gap on the roof and as he stared more at the moonlight, the more the shadows grew bigger and closer and more dangerous by the second and when he tried to look at the window to see the shadows, they would get faster and faster

Rox: it looks like fate is approaching more faster than I thought.

Lucia: that's what happens when you did something wrong and you know it and now you must watch as the shadows of fate devour you slowly and painfully you fucker!

Rox: well (smirk) you should also know that I am not the only shadow in my territory, right Drogo?

Drogo: the higher ups may have let you be in control of me since you have the target in custody but that doesn't mean I'm your servant.

The elf Drogo is a member of a mysterious organization that has requested Rox to kidnap Lucia and now he was acting as his right hand man so that he can secure the target safely but now they were surrounded by the staff from Albert's mansion who were looking for for Lucia after they realized she was missing and now it looked like the old abandoned house they were using as a base was about to be destroyed.

Rox: I don't care about what you think just bring out your lackeys.

Drogo: grrrh (sigh) Come out [army of the forbidden]

Lucia:(to herself) that's an advanced dark magic spell.

Drogo: impressed girl? Well I was a genius caster back at the academ—

Rox: yeah yeah no one cares, now order to destroy those fools out side.

Drogo: ugh fine now go my puppets

And the battle begins against the Staff and a hundred ghosts created by Drogo.

In the mean time Sion was standing at an knocked out Alex who Sion drugged not to long ago, as Sion was engulfed by regrets and racking his brain out for a plan and what he should do footsteps approached the room and Albert stood the at the door, his face covered by the darkness of his hat's shadow.

Albert: what happened?

Sion stood there silent and finally got his head and thoughts together and he turned around and looked straight into Albert's eyes and started explaining everything that happened and how the staff went to rescue Lucia.

Albert: I see... Well that means things are about to get messy.

Sion: what are you talking about?

Albert: I mean that the village is about to turn into a warzone.

Sion: Wait what! A warzone?!

Albert: yes because if he was planning to break into "my" house of all people, then I can bet he's not alone... Not to brag by the way.

Sion: I know what you mean and if that's so then how about the innocent people?

Albert: i never thought that I off all people is recommending this but we will have to involve the law enforcers for this one, and I know who to go for first. You stay here with Alex and I will be back with Lucia so don't worry.

Sion: why would you say that to me? When it's all my fault?!

Albert: relax kid, it's not your fault so... Leave it to me and watch over Alex, I'll go get Lucia back.

Albert left Alex in Sion's care as he dashed straight to the justice guild of Markini and as he got there he immediately went inside to look for someone

Albert: hey! Rachel are you in here?!

Officer: (while approaching Albert) hey pal you're making a lot of noise so quiet down a bit and we'll attend you later!

Albert: I'm looking for Rachel have you seen her?

Officer: she's busy right now so can you wait for her after her shift is done? And precise aren't you too old to be seeing someone so young?

Albert: are you new here? You must be if you don't know me.

Officer: so what if I am? It doesn't change the fact that you should leave!

Rachel: what's with the noise here... Oh Albert?!

Officer: Rachel could you tell your boyfriend to leave and come back later?

Rachel: what! Boyfriend? Oh no this is Albert Rhodes, he sometimes helps me with information and investigations and I'm friends with his daughter when she visits the village.

Officer: What! Did you say ALBERT RHODES! as in the "Super Punch" of the Great Storm?

Rachel: yes him and—

Albert: yes yes yes anyways Rachel you are coming with me and all of you, by using the authority of the mayor I am going to tell you that a battle is heating up right now and it might affect the people, so I want you to evacuate people in the east district cuz the shock waves of the battle there will likely kill the people nearby so you should move right now. That's all and be quick!

Albert grabbed Rachel by her sleeve and dashed off with her to the east district where the battle was taking place. Rachel was a beautiful girl with orange/red hair, a bit muscular, curvy hips, a plentiful chest and a commanding aura but that same girl was screaming as the 17 year old was forced to move at fast speeds.

Rachel: waaaaaah! Where are you taking me?

Albert: Lucia got kidnapped and I'm gonna need those Judgement eyes of yours once I find her and those fuckers.

Rachel: ok I get it but what do you need my judgement eyes for?

Albert: just in case they cloned her or put an illusion to distruct us.

Rachel: oh I see! Waaah!

Rachel Vall is the first youngest enforcer in Markini, and the reason for that was her unique ability to know a false and a truth when she heard one and the ability to know fake and real and lastly to know reality and illusion, and it's all thanks to this ability [ Judgment Eyes] which is a perfect weapon for a law inforcer and not only is she good at solving crimes, she is also a C rank officer when it comes to capabilities and battle.

And now Rachel and Albert are heading to the battle against Rox and Drogo vs Albert's staff.

Albert: this is it... Are you ready?

Rachel: sure let's bring it to them!
