Chapter 10: In the Darkest Area
Breaths of shock escaped Rhea's mouth. Her normal expression on her face as turned into the determined, prepared expression. Rhea then, began to form her usual defense position along with her dad. Their eyes were carefully on the opponent as footsteps began to push forward.
Rhea and Ray were now walking in circles, surrounding the black-hooded person. The black-hooded person was seen forming his own fighting position. His right foot was stepped forward with his other foot almost behind his body. His left hand was in the chest level with the other being in the stomach level. But the gap between them was at least 5 centimeters.
As Rhea and Ray walked around him in circles, the black-hooded person's body swooped to the right side.
After one time of walking in a circle, Ray's and Rhea's feet halted to a stop. Then, they waited and mantally prepared for the black-hooded person to make his move.
It took less than a moment before the black-hooded person delivered a roundhouse kick to Rhea's left side, but she blocked it with the "sand the floor" skill. Again, this involved the big circle.
Next, two punches were launched by Rhea and a kick to the stomach was involved. The black-hooded person's forearms shielded his face and chest and the kick was successfully landed on the stomach. The black hooded person was pulled backwards by force, but he managed to regain balance.
Now, it was Ray's turn to land a punch. It was supposed to land a hit on the black-hooded person's left shoulder, but it was grabbed by his left hand and his right hand grabbed Ray's cloth on his left shoulder. A knee landed a hit on Ray's stomach. The black-hooded person, flipped his body over. Once Ray was landed on his back, a punch was delivered to his stomach once again.
Then, two arms wrapped around the black-hooded person's stomach. And he had been pulled away. The only parts of the body that made him feel like leaning on a wall were his lower limbs.
"Hey! Stop! Let him go!" a familiar young, male voice told him.
The black-hooded person pushed those arms away from him and his body whipped behind him. Right before him was Ralpha. His face was plastered with determination. His fighting position was moved up and down a bit. his right hind arm was placed on the right side of his body and his other hind arm was placed on the left side. On his chest level. His hands were clenched to his fists, ready to hit an opponent.
"Come on!" he said in determination. "Come on!"
As Ralpha said this, Ray's body flipped over and his hands landed on the ground. His right knee rose and now, it was his foot that landed on the ground. He pushed himself back on his feet and he dusted his hands off. Then, he did the same with the body parts that landed on the ground.
Upon hearing words from Ralpha, it took one second before a roundhouse kick was delivered to his left cheek. Ralpha attempted to launch a single punch towards the black-hooded person, but kicks and punches delivered to him beat it.
The black-hooded person lowered his body and his leg swept under Ralpha's feet. This caused him to trip over those legs and his body landed on its left side.
A grunt escaped Ralpha's mouth. His right hand landed on the ground. Just as he was about to push himself back up, the black-hooded person grabbed him by the collar of his shirt. His hand raised and was formed as a knife. Just as he was about to make a strike to Ralpha's neck, a push dragged him To the right. This caused him to lose a grip on Ralpha's shirt.
Ralpha was dropped in the ground's direction, but hands and arms caught him just in time. He could feel four arms catching him, then pushing him back onto his feet. Ralpha turned behind him. It was revealed to be Diona and Rhea.
"Thanks, mommy and Ate Rhea. I appreciate it," he said to them.
"You're welcome," Diona said.
"It's no problem," Rhea said.
As the black-hooded person finally came to a stop by the push, he turned to his left. It was Seth who pushed him away from Ralpha. Now, he has his own fighting position. His left foot was stepped forward with his right foot almost behind his body. His left fist was close to his chest with his other fist on the stomach level, but was almost as close to contact as his left fist. His eyes glared at the black-hooded person deadly.
"I'm going to ask you this one time. Who are you?" he said to the black-hooded person.
No response was received. Instead a roundhouse kick was launched to his left temple. But Seth managed to dodge the attack. By leaning back and his eyes directly on the black-hooded person's foot.
Punches and kicks were delivered to him, but his blocks were launched right on time and successfully.
The black-hooded person launched a forward punch to Seth's chest, but he flipped his body over his. Now, Seth's feet landed on the spot behind the black-hooded person.
In every attack the black-hooded person launched, blocks and dodges were responded. Flips were even involved in the fight scene.
Rhea took a few steps to her right before she halted to a stop. As she did so, her eyes were on the fight scene between the black-hooded person and Seth. She didn't really know why, but curiosity and interest started taking over her.
"Whoa."
A whisper from Rhea was her first reaction after a few moments of watching how Seth fought the black-hooded person.
Seth's hands grabbed the collar of the black-hooded person's leather armor. His death glaring face was directly on his. "Who are you?"
Still, no response was received.
Instead, a kick to the stomach was delivered. This caused Seth to loose his grip. His hands immediately moved to his stomach. A pained expression was shown. Kicks from the black-hooded person managed to take Seth down.
"Seth!" both Rhea and Razzy said in unison. Although, they could barely hear each other saying the same name.
The two teenage girls rushed their way to Seth's side. Their knees were landed beside him.
"Brother, you okay?" Razzy asked Seth.
A grunt was heard from Seth. His back rose up a bit, but he could still feel pain in his stomach. "Yeah, I'm fine."
Razzy turned her head to the black-hooded person. She could see him walking his way towards the trio. She then, turned back to her brother.
"Give yourself some rest, brother. I got this."
Seth nodded in response.
"I'll look after him. I'll see if he needs anything," Rhea said to Razzy.
Razzy nodded upon hearing this. You could barely hear a sigh of relief from Seth.
"Thank you."
Rhea turned to Seth and nodded. "No problem." Then, she turned back to Razzy. "Give it all you got."
Razzy nodded in reply.
With that, Razzy rose back on her feet and slowly whipped her body behind her. She was seen walking in circles on the left side. Same goes with the black-hooded person. Now, they were walking in a clockwise position, their eyes glaring at each other. Of course, no face was seen under the black hood.
While walking in circles, Razzy formed her own fighting position. When it was done, she and the black-hooded person halted to a stop. Razzy's fighting position was almost the same as Seth, except that her right foot was stepped forward with her left foot almost behind her.
The black-hooded person formed the same position as he did earlier. Except that his hands were clenched to his fists.
Then, the two waited for the right moment to make their first move on another.
After about seven seconds, the black-hooded person delivered a roundhouse kick on Razzy's right temple, but it was blocked by her left forearm. Then, the same kick was delivered to her stomach, but she swooped to her left side, dodging that attack.
Punches and kicks were delivered to each other, but dodges and blocks were responded. No takedown skills were involved, but Razzy's martial arts skill level was nowhere near the black-hooded person. Still, she's improving it.
Soon after, Ray became involved in the fight. It started with a forward punch to the black-hooded person's body part near his chest, but his hand grabbed the fist. Immediately, another punch was delivered, but it was grabbed by his other hand.
Ray's head turned to the black-hooded person's unseen face in surprise. Then, a kick was successfully landed on the stomach, pushing him backwards. Ray's feet almost slipped off the ground, but he managed to regain balance.
As the battle went on, it was mostly Ray and Razzy who fought the black-hooded person. You may be asking about Diona being involved in the fight, but she was found watching the fight. With her left arm wrapped around Ralpha's shoulders.
While all of those things in the fight happened, Seth walked his way inside the tour bus with the help of Rhea Daniels. Inside, they sat by the window. And through the window was the fighting scene between Ray & Razzy and the black-hooded person.
While Rhea was watching the battle scene through the window, a curious question popped in her head. "Hey, Seth."
"Yeah?"
"Can I ask you a question?"
"Of course."
Rhea's head turned slightly to Seth, but her eyes were clearly directed to him. On her right. Her knees were on the sofa and Seth was sitting on it.
"How did you know karate? Where did you learn it?"
"In the world where I grew up with an unstable family, it was decided that my sister and I should protect ourselves against our enemies. Most especially me. So we learned different ways of self-defense. Razzy learned taekwondo and karate. I learned the same, but I was also involved in kickboxing and ninjutsu."
"It's no wonder you can flip so successfully," Rhea said as her body moved to her sitting position on the sofa. "You did really good out there."
Seth let out a light chuckle. "Thanks."
"It's no problem, Seth. No problem."
Back in the battle, the fighting lasted until two kicks from Ray and Razzy were lamded on the black-hooded person's chest and stomach. All at the same time.
Now that the black-hooded person finally landed on the left side of his legs and his butt, his head turned to the two fighters. Then, he rose back onto his feet and walked away from the scene. In the direction of the streets in the night sky.
Atthat time, everyone involved in the fight began to wonder. Who's really under the person's black hood?
