SDS2 26: MISSION V: THE YAKUZA'S RAGE PT. 2
AFTER GATHERING INFORMATION from the informant, the sons were all getting ready to face the infamous yakuza leader. While they were walking down the halls of Kenji's mansion, Hyunseung glanced at his brothers and asked, "So what do we do now?"
Sunggyu took a deep breath and placed his hand inside his pockets, trying to relax, "I don't know, but let's just wait for the others so we could make a plan."
"I suggest going to my father's office." Tamo then said, finally saying something after the torture that they did to the informant earlier.
"Why, are they already here?" Minhyuk asked, and Tamo nodded his head, "They are, and it seems like they have a guest with them. You head to the office now and I'll check on Kai."
"Alright, we'll see you at the office," Sunggyu said as he walked towards Kenji's room. Minhyuk and Hyunseung following behind him while Tamo went back to the interrogation room. Sunggyu opened the door and saw their brothers, The Souls of Lucifer and their guardian. And beside him was a man who they already saw before, Kharon II.
"So I presume you had better results than we did," Sunggyu said as he went towards them.
"And I presume you didn't get anything from the informant," Taeil said back.
"All he said was everything we already figured out ourselves," Minhyuk answered further as he went beside his brothers.
"But there is something that bothers me," Sunggyu told them, and then everybody looked at him, curious to what he was about to say, "How do they know that the other Sinners are already dead?" Sunggyu finally asked.
"Yeah, every time we kill them, they say that the others will know or something like that." Suho stated.
"And the only ghoul we didn't kill was Nagi since Kharon gave him a special mission." Jackson said as they gestured at their guardian.
"Its been 2 days and we still haven't made any progress." Minhyuk reminded them, and then he looked at the man beside their guardian and raised his right eyebrow, "Is this Kharon II now, or is he still Yamada?" Minhyuk asked, now only noticing him.
"Oh yes, my apologies, this is Kharon II." Kharon III introduced.
"It's an honor to finally meet you once more my Princes." Kharon II greeted as he bowed down to show respect to the Demons.
"It's good to see you again Kharon II," Sunggyu stated, and Kharon II shook the Demons' leader's hand.
"So now that Kharon II is here, what do we do next?" Jackson asked, and everybody in the room, including Kenji, looked at Taeil. Taeil went to Kenji's table and used his computer and showed them the layout of the Sinners' hideout.
"How did you find that?" Hyunseung asked in amazement.
"I did a little bit of research," Taeil said with a mischievous grin. But before Taeil could tell his brothers their plan, Tamo and Kai suddenly barged inside the office, and they were all covered in blood. The state that they were in caught everyone off guard.
"What happened?!" Suho asked as he rushed towards them.
"We need to get out of here, all of us." Tamo immediately warned as he tried to stop the wound on his hand from bleeding.
"Tamo you're badly wounded," Kenji said in a concerned tone as he rushed towards his son.
"There's a first aid kit in my drawer," Kenji ordered, and Taeil quickly complied.
"Why? What's happening?" Sunggyu asked as he looked at Kai worriedly.
Kai, who was also panting heavily, looked at the Demons and explained what happened, "A-after I killed the informant...his chest started to glow. And then I saw a mark on his chest."
"What mark?" Minhyuk asked curiously.
"The mark of the 5th Sinner." The two Kharon's answered in unison, and the Demons looked at each other in confusion.
"But why are you covered in blood?" Suho asked.
"A ghoul appeared out of nowhere! But from the looks of it, it's not an ordinary ghoul. We tried to injure him but he quickly ran away. But we know he's still inside the mansion." Tamo explained.
"It's the Sinner's right-hand ghoul," Hyunseung concluded, and everybody started to panic.
"We need to get out of here," Jackson told his brothers.
"Why don't we just kill him?" Jiyong then suggested, "I mean, 4 of us here are already demons and we have 5 other powerful demons with us. We should stop running away and face this motherfucker."
Everyone looked at Sunggyu. Since he was the leader, he would make the final call. He looked at Kai and Tamo, then back to his brothers and the SOLs. Jiyong was right. They had enough demons to fight for whatever was in the mansion. If they run now, things might end up getting worse.
"Fine. Where is he? Where did you last see him?" Sunggyu asked while looking at Kai, now considering Jiyong's suggestion.
"He was in the hallway near the basement," Kai answered.
"If he's that close, why didn't we sense him?" Junsu asked Yoochun and Jaejoong.
"Then let's ask him," Jaejoong said with a smirk, and then he snapped his fingers and suddenly vanished.
"We'll go on ahead my Princes," Yoochun stated, then he and Junsu also vanished.
"Kharon, please keep Kenji, Tamo, and Kai safe. We will look for the ghoul." Suho instructed, and Kharon nodded as an answer.
"Well, I'm already here, might as well help out," Kharon II said with a smirk before vanishing like the rest of the SOLs. The Demons went out of the office and searched for the ghoul. When the coast was clear, they went to the living room and made a plan there.
"We need to split up first," Sunggyu said as he looked at his brothers.
"Hyunseung and Minhyuk, you go to the basement with Jackson." Sunggyu instructed, then he looked at the rest and said, "Taeil and Suho, you go with me and Jiyong. We'll search the first floor."
"Okay, Sunggyu," Taeil replied.
"Let's go!" Sunggyu shouted, and the Demons summoned their weapons and searched for the troublesome ghoul.
*****
"This is the place where Kai last spotted the ghoul," Hyunseung said as he and his brothers stood in front of the door of the basement where the interrogation room can be found.
"Ready your weapons," Hyunseung ordered, and they nodded and obliged. He opened the basement door, but the room was dead quiet. Hyunseung, Minhyuk, and Jackson entered the room and searched the basement.
"JS, this is the place where we interrogated Minato," Minhyuk said as he stopped in front of the door. Hyunseung positioned himself at the other side of the door and Jackson beside him. Minhyuk opened the door and saw nothing inside except for the informant's dead body.
"Guys, can you hear me?"
"Taeil is that you?" Hyunseung asked as he touched the earpiece in his ear.
"Thank goodness you're still wearing the earpieces." This time it was Sunggyu who talked.
"What did you find?" Taeil asked.
"The body is still here, but no sign of the other ghoul," Hyunseung answered. Jackson went to the informant's body and saw something shocking.
"Guys look at this," Jackson said as he called out for his brothers.
"What is it? Is it the mark Kai was talking about?" Minhyuk asked while approaching Jackson. But when Minhyuk finally saw what Jackson was pointing at, his eyes widened from shock.
"Sunggyu! You need to be careful!" Minhyuk quickly paged his brother.
"Huh? What's wrong?" Sunggyu asked confusingly. Jackson and Hyunseung looked at the mark and saw that beside the mark of the 5th Sinner was also a summoning mark.
"We need to go to Sunggyu and the others." Hyunseung quickly stated. They rushed outside the room and went out of the basement.
"What's wrong? Hyunseung, what's happening?" Jiyong asked, a little confused about why Hyunseung and the others were panicking.
"We don't think there's just one ghoul inside this mansion." Hyunseung finally answered.
"Huh? What do you mean?" Suho asked with shock.
"We saw a summoning mark beside the mark the sinner left on the informant's chest," Minhyuk explained, shocking everyone on the line.
"What?!" everyone said in unison, making Hyunseung and the other flinch by how loud the sound was.
"Where are you?" Minhyuk then asked.
"We're at the dining hall."
"Okay, we'll go to you. Stay right where you are."
MEANWHILE...
AT THE DINING ROOM
"So he's not alone," Suho stated, scanning the room in case someone pops out.
"Yeah, so we better hurry," Taeil stated, also cautious like Suho. When they opened the door to the dining room, they immediately saw three ghouls fighting with The Souls of Lucifer.
"My Prince!" Junsu called out, making the ghouls look at them. They were about to tackle the demons, but the Souls of Lucifer stabbed them with their hand and set them on fire. In a split second, the ghouls were dead.
"Are there more of these bitches?" Suho asked as he looked at the SOLs.
"Yes, Kharon II told us that there were 10 here. We saw him fighting some so we helped him out. He's now chasing after the rest of them," Jaejoong explained.
"Including the ghoul that we're after. The right-hand-ghoul of Sinner five," Junsu added.
"Then there's seven more," Jiyong stated. But before Sunggyu could say something, he suddenly heard someone scream at the lobby. The Demons quickly ran towards the noise, the Souls of Lucifer following behind them.
As they arrived in the living room, they saw five other ghouls fighting Hyunseung and the others.
"Hyunseung!" Sunggyu shouted as he went towards his brother to help him. Suho, Jiyong, and Taeil right behind him.
"We got ambushed," Hyunseung said as he tried to slash the ghoul's hand.
Suho cast a fireball that hit the ghoul in front of him. Jackson and Taeil tagged teamed in killing one of the ghouls, while Jiyong and Sunggyu took on another ghoul. Not like the ghouls that they already encountered before, these guys were stronger. It seems like the stronger the sinner, the stronger their ghouls would be too.
Hyunseung on the other hand had already killed two ghouls before the others arrive. After all, he's the first one to become a demon, and controlling it was already a piece of cake for him. Suho helped Minhyuk kill the last one and all of the ghouls a few minutes after.
"Only two left," Suho said as he wiped the blood from his face.
"Two?" Jackson asked.
"Kharon II told the Souls of Lucifer...that there were 10 ghouls here," Sunggyu answered as he tried to catch his breath.
"Then where could they be? And where's Kharon II?" Jackson asked, but before anyone could answer, they heard another scream, and this time it came from Kenji's office.
"The office!" Jiyong shouted, and everyone immediately ran to where the ruckus was. Minhyuk kicked the door and saw two men, not two ghouls. The ghoul who attacked Tamo and Kai earlier was there, but beside him was a man that everyone knew too well.
"The Sinner," Taeil said as he readied his weapon. The Demons did the same, and when they saw their surroundings, they realized that there was blood everywhere.
"Tamo, Kai, Kenji!" Suho shouted in terror when he saw the three humans bleeding badly, but good thing they were still alive. The Sinner named Rain, and his ghoul Rinu, looked at them with serious expressions.
"So you have arrived." Rain said with a low voice. Their guardian and Kharon II was already weak and badly wounded at the side, it was obvious this Sinner was exceptionally strong.
Rain just walked towards Kenji's table and casually sat on the chair. The air surrounding them was so dense that Tamo, Kai, and Kenji started having a hard time breathing
"Did you think I'd let you attack me first like the other sinners you killed?" Rain asked with superiority in his voice.
"How did you-"
"Find you?" Rain quickly cut off, making Sunggyu flinch because that was the exact same thing Sunggyu said to the informant. Sunggyu clenched his fist and realized that he has actually been listening to them the entire time.
"I knew that you'll look for Minato, so that's why I placed my mark and the summoning mark on his body." Rain said as he looked at the Demons, "And I also knew that you'll kill him afterward. It was a perfect plan because for the summoning mark to work it needed to offer someone, same goes to my mark."
"Why didn't we sense you coming?" It was Jaejoong who bravely asked the question next.
"We were summoned by Minato's body and his blood covered our scent." Rain surprisingly answered before standing up again. He then looked at Kharon II, AKA Taro Yamada, and smirked, "And you even made Yamada join the party. I enjoyed killing his wife by the way, so killing him would definitely bring me more delight."
The sinner then looked back at his right-hand ghoul, "Rinu, what should we do to make this a quick kill? I still have a meeting to attend today so we have to do this fast." While Rain and Rinu were distracted by their confidence, the Demons looked at each other and made an on-the-spot plan.
"Taeil, what do we do?" Minhyuk whispered as he stared directly at the ghoul who was walking towards them.
"Junsu, are they the last one?" Taeil then asked in a soft voice, and Junsu simply nodded as an answer.
"Hyunseung and Minhyuk, help Sunggyu kill the Sinner." Taeil instructed, "Me, Suho, Jackson, and Jiyong will deal with the ghoul." He then added.
"What about us my Prince?" Jaejoong whispered to Taeil without removing his eyes on Rain and Rinu.
"Help our guardian and Kharon II," Taeil answered.
"And also Tamo, Kai, and Kenji." Suho quickly added. The Souls of Lucifer nodded and everybody readied their weapon.
"Now go!" Taeil finally shouted, and the Demons, including the Souls of Lucifer, spread out and did what Taeil had planned.
Rain wasn't even surprised by the sudden attack. So without any hesitation, he pushed Rinu away and ran outside, Sunggyu and the others following right behind him.
The Souls of Lucifer stopped time and went to the two-wounded Kharons and the nearly dead humans, Tamo, Kai, and Kenji. Jiyong cast the same amount and strength of fire that his guardian produced when they were ambushed by ghouls at the shopping district.
"Argh!" Rinu screamed in agony. Taeil took the opportunity to smack the knees of the ghoul and the ghoul ones again screamed.
Suho went to the screaming Rinu and took all of his memories and forcefully pushed it back inside of him. Rinu screamed once more while touching his temples, then Jackson ran to him and grabbed his head before detaching it from his neck. For good measures, Jiyong joins Jackson and sets Rinu on fire.
On the other hand...
Sunggyu and his brothers were now face-to-face with the deadly sinner, Rain. Sunggyu slashed the back of the Sinner, but Rain easily dodged the attack and grabbed hold of Sunggyu's weapon. He pushed Sunggyu away from him, but thankfully, Hyunseung caught Sunggyu before his back could touch the floor.
"Do you think a low life demon like you could kill me?" Rain taunted.
"No, but my brothers can." Sunggyu confidently stated. And with that, Hyunseung and Minhyuk transformed into full-blown demons, shocking Rain.
Hyunseung and Minhyuk quickly vanished in front of them. Rain looked at his surroundings, and just like the wind that passed by, Hyunseung and Minhyuk were already behind him. Before Rain could even turn around, Hyunseung and Minhyuk immediately grabbed him by the arm.
"Now Sunggyu!" Minhyuk shouted, and without any second thought, Sunggyu ran towards the Sinner and stabbed him in the heart.
The room fell silent. Rain looked at Sunggyu, his eyes wide from shock. Then, blood started oozing out of his mouth. Sunggyu quickly removed his weapon from Rain's chest, the fresh blood dripping at the end of his weapon.
Hyunseung and Minhyuk were about to let go of him, but suddenly Rain grabbed hold of the two Demons and threw them across the room, making them hit the bookshelf.
"Hyunseung!! Minhyuk!!" Sunggyu shouted as he looked at his fallen brothers.
"Do you really think that can easily kill me?!" Rain now shouted as he grabbed hold of Sunggyu by his neck. Sunggyu struggled to get away from the grasp of the Sinner, but Rain was still too strong for him.
"Remember this half-blood, from here on out, killing us will be harder than killing those so-called Sinners of Hell before me. And if you're not a true demon, killing me will be impossible." Rain stated. Then he threw Sunggyu towards a mirror, the glass shattering by the impact.
"Sunggyu!!" Hyunseung shouted as he saw Sunggyu unconscious on the floor.
Hyunseung once again tried to attack the Sinner, but Rain dodged him easily and grabbed hold of Hyunseung's weapon. Minhyuk took this chance, but the same thing happened to Minhyuk. At this point, Rain was already holding both of their weapons. He angrily looked at Hyunseung and Minhyuk before aggressively throwing their weapons back to them.
Hyunseung and Minhyuk got stabbed in their shoulders, and like the speed of light, Rain appeared in front of them again. He took their weapons and used it to pierce them against the bookshelves.
"ARG!!!" Hyunseung and Minhyuk screamed in agony as they got stuck on the shelve, unable to escape.
Rain was panting heavily as he looked at the wounded Demons. He wiped the blood on his face and looked back at where Sunggyu's unconscious body was. But to his surprise, Sunggyu wasn't there anymore. The Sinner then felt a chilling dark aura standing right behind him.
Rain immediately turns around and saw Sunggyu. The Sinner flinched by how powerful the demon looked. And before he could even say anything, Sunggyu gripped on his weapon and shouted, "Killing you will never be impossible!"
He stabbed Rain on his back with all his might, causing Rain to stumble.
"Fuck!" Rain shouted as he tried to push Sunggyu away from him. But Sunggyu was already so strong that he effortlessly pushed his weapon deeper. Then he kicked Rain away from him, forcefully pulling the weapon off his back.
"If you're that powerful then that means I'm as powerful as you...and maybe even more," Sunggyu said as he turned his eyes red and went towards the wounded Sinner. He grabbed his face and forced him to look at him in the eye.
"Even though you're a Sinner, this body has something to fear." When Sunggyu said this, the Sinner widened his eyes and tried to escape Sunggyu's grasp. Rain tried to punch Sunggyu on the face so he could let go of him, but Sunggyu just wiped the blood on his lip, unfazed on the sudden action.
Sunggyu looked back at Rain and stabbed him on the side next, making him wince in pain.
"So Sinner...or what you are called here, Ji-hoon," Sunggyu said as he looked at the Sinner in the eye, "What is your greatest fear?" Sunggyu added, and when Sunggyu said those words, the Sinner remembered something, a great fear that the owner of the body had been trying to hide from.
Rain just screamed in pain as he remembered his greatest fear, and Sunggyu took this opportunity to finally end him.
"Now, who's the half-blood?" Sunggyu finished. Then he shouted at the top of his lungs before finally slashing his weapon across the Sinner's neck. Blood splattered, covering Sunggyu with his blood. Then Rain's head slowly falls, then his body fell right after.
Sunggyu's eyes went back to normal. He summoned his weapon back as his aura slowly faded. He looked at his two brothers and saw that they were still stuck on the shelf.
"Hyunseung, Minhyuk. Are you okay?" Sunggyu asked as he went in front of his brothers.
"Yeah, we're fine," Hyunseung answered as he tried to pull the weapon off them.
"Let me do it," Sunggyu stated, and without wasting any second, Sunggyu pulled the weapons off of Hyunseung and Minhyuk.
The two fell from the ground and were already bleeding badly. Sunggyu helped his brothers stand up and they went to the rest of his brothers back to the other room. When the rest of the Demons saw Sunggyu and the others, Jackson immediately went to them to help Hyunseung and Minhyuk.
"Are you guys okay?" Sunggyu asked, mostly referring to Tamo, Kai, and Kenji.
"Yes, they're already fine. We applied first aid to them. But we need to send them to the hospital so that they can be properly treated." Taeil stated while bandaging Kai's arm.
"Okay, I'll call an ambulance." Suho presented as he went outside of the room to make the call. Jackson and the other Demons tried to ease the injured ones. Thankfully it wasn't something everyone should panic about since demons heal fast.
Suho went back inside the room and looked at his brothers worriedly.
"Have you called an ambulance?" Sunggyu asked the moment he saw Suho.
"I can't get a signal," Suho stated as he showed them his phone.
"My apologies my Prince, but the time is still stopped. I'll bring it back to normal for you." Yoochun reminded them, and then he snapped his fingers, and just like that, everything was moving once more.
"Thank you," Suho said before going back outside.
"My Prince, have you taken the soul of the Sinner yet?" Junsu then asked.
"No, not yet," Sunggyu answered as he wiped the blood off from his face.
"May you please get the Sinners soul now?" Jaejoong pleaded.
"Since we've been using our powers, we're rapidly consuming the previous souls that you fed to us," Yoochun added.
"Oh okay, then can you please bring the body to me," Sunggyu instructed. The SOL's immediately went out and took the body (and the head), back to the room. When everyone saw the Sinner's body, they couldn't help but be shocked.
"That is one brutal death," Kai commented.
"Reminds you of the old days?" Tamo teased, even though he was already weak himself. Everyone laughed. Then Sunggyu approached the body and got ready to absorb his soul. But when he kneeled in front of him, he hesitated.
The SOL's looked at Sunggyu, noticing his hesitation.
"What's wrong my Prince?" Junsu asked as he looked at Sunggyu who was in doubt.
"Can I still get his soul even though I beheaded him?" Sunggyu innocently asked as he scratched his head. Minhyuk and the rest of the Demons approached the body and looked at it closely.
"This is the bloodiest kill I have ever seen," Minhyuk commented as he looked at the headless Sinner.
"Why do you need to be that brutal?" Taeil asked as he tried to kick the Sinners' head away, but Jackson stopped him from doing so.
"Well, he made me mad and called me half-blood. I just HAD to behead him." Sunggyu calmly explained, like beheading someone who pissed you off was a normal thing to do.
"Well, you are a half-blood." Minhyuk pointed out, and this made Sunggyu furious again. Sunggyu was about to hit Minhyuk, but Jiyong immediately stopped him from doing so.
"Hey, hey. Chill outSunggyu. After taking this Sinner's soul, you won't be a half-blood anymore." Jiyong reminded him, and Sunggyu sighed and finally got ready to absorb the Sinner's soul.
"Why do you have to say that?" Jiyong asks Minhyuk before smacking him at the back of his head.
"Sorry." Minhyuk simply said while rubbing his aching head.
Sunggyu breathed in deeply and finally chanted, "I, the Prince of Wrath, the fifth son of the realms of hell, am commanding the soul of this key keeper to be transferred to me in the name of Satan." And with that, the soul transferred to Sunggyu. He breathed deeply again and then slowly stood up. He opened his eyes, and just by the appearance, everyone knew that Sunggyu was no longer a half-blood.
"Feeling good Sunggyu?" Minhyuk asked, and suddenly, Sunggyu clenched his fist and punched Minhyuk. But luckily for Minhyuk, he quickly dodged him seconds before Sunggyu's fist could make contact with his face.
"The fuck man?!" Minhyuk asked with shock as he stumbled away from his furious brother.
"Sorry." Sunggyu apologized, but with the most insincere voice he could ever make.
"I think we need to be nice towards Sunggyu or else he might punch us too," Hyunseung said and everyone nodded.
"I already called the ambulance, they're on their way now." Suho suddenly informed them as he entered the room. Then he saw the Sinner's body, and Suho immediately looked away, "What the hell?! You fucking butchered him?!"
Sunggyu doesn't say anything and just kicked the Sinner's head, making it roll towards Suho. Suho panicked, and his reaction made everyone laugh.
"So what are we going to do to him?" Taeil asked.
Finally, the two Kharons joined the others.
"I'll take care of it." Kharon II stated, "I'll manipulate Taro Yamada's memory, making him think that it was he who killed this man," Kharon II added.
"Okay, then I'll let you handle it." Kharon III said, "And I'm sorry for bringing you into this mess by the way," he added
"It's okay. That's what we do right?" Kharon II asked as he winked at Kharon III.
Kharon II walked towards Suho and took the head.
"Why bring that?" Jiyong asked as he looked at the previous Kharon.
"Well, I need proof that I killed him right?" Kharon II asked, then he suddenly vanished with the head of the Sinner without even saying goodbye.
"Will he return back into Taro Yamada?" Taeil asked.
"Yes, he will. So you don't need to worry my Princes.", Kharon III assured the Demons.
"But how about this place? We need to clean this or make up a lame excuse once the paramedics arrive." Suho said as he looked at the room.
"Don't worry my Prince, let us handle it," Junsu stated, then Yoochun and Jaejoong held hands with Junsu, and within seconds, everything returned to normal as if nothing happened. It was no doubt the three were souls of Lucifer. They really were powerful.
"Then what will we say to them when they ask us about Tamo, Kai, and Kenji?" Minhyuk asked.
"Don't worry, them seeing us like this is normal," Tamo said as he tried to stand up. Then he helped his father stand up as well.
"Yeah, they'll just tell them that it was another fight involving the Ravens," Kai assured the Demons. And just a few minutes later, the paramedics arrived, and like what Kai said, Tamo told the paramedics that they were caught in a fight that involved the Ravens, and just like that, the paramedics didn't ask any questions anymore.
"We'll be back," Kai said as the paramedics escorted him outside the room.
"I know you're still doing your mission, so use my office and my resources as much as you want," Tamo said as he went in front of Sunggyu.
"Thank you, Tamo," Sunggyu stated with a bow, then Tamo nodded his head and went out to follow Kai.
"Hope you finish your mission without any more problems Demons." Kenji then added as he was lying down on a stretcher.
"Don't worry Kenji, we'll be more careful," Hyunseung said before the paramedics could take Kenji away from the room.
"We'll be on our way now." One of the paramedics told the Demons before finally leaving the room.
"So what's the next plan?" Jiyong asked as he looked at Taeil.
"Since this mission took us 2 days, we need to wait for another day before we go to the next Sinner," Taeil explained.
"And why is that?" Sunggyu asked rather rudely, and the Demons just shrugged their shoulders.
Taeil looked at his brother and finally answered, "Because this time, we'll be entering a contest."
Everyone was dumbfounded, but as for their leader, Sunggyu rolled his eyes and simply said, "These missions get dummer and dummer. What else do we have to do to get that goddamn gate open?" Taeil looked at his short-tempered brother and smirked, "A lot more."
