15 Demons Cave and Shameless (2/2)
Zen: You look like someone who belongs in Willow Smith's music video whipping your hair back and forth.
Wu: YOU!
Wu Chen goes for a palm strike.None of the adults intervene because they think it's a kid's fight. I catch his palm and twist it around his back. Then, I draw Kurohime and place it up to his neck.
Zen: I have only ever killed in self-defense. Also, I don't like fighting unless I get some sort of compensation. So, I will be taking this.
Wu Chen: YOU BASTARD. YOU STOLE MY WALLET!
Zen: To the winner, goes the spoils that is what my mom always taught me.
Sei: So, that is where he gets that from.
Genbu: That sword and the habit of taking wallets off the enemy; How are you related to the Fairy of the Dark Blade or should I say The Shameless Assassin?
Zen: That's a new one.I never heard anyone call my mom that before.But, I can picture it. She always says, ”Never fight for free; take the enemy's cash. If they don't have cash, pawn the stuff that they have that is valuable.”
Genbu: Let my son go.
Zen: I'll think about it.How much is he worth to you?
Genbu: YOUUUU! YOU'RE JUST LIKE YOUR MOTHER; TRYING TO EXTORTE ME!
Zen: I will take that as a complement. My mom always taught me when opportunity comes knocking open the danm door.
Suzaku: Hahhahahahahahahah. The famous Triad Boss is getting extorted by a kid. This is hilarious.
Xu Tu: Miss, I thought you went to a Hero's School.
Sei: Zen is Zen. He is one of a kind.But, this is kind of funny.
Zen: My mom was an assassin; my dad was a mercenary. I am not a boy scout. In fact, I probably fall under the ”rogue category”. So, unless you have more children, I suggest you pay up. Oh, and lose the snipers I can sense them hiding. I might use your son as a meat shield.
Genbu: YOUR'E SHAMELESS!Do you have no honor?
Zen: Honor can't fill your belly or buy you nice things. Oh, I also like your watch.I like that too. I could use new one of those.
After Genbu agrees on my compensation, I give him my information and he wires the money into my account. Then, he throws me his watch. I let Wu Chen go. Genbu is thinking of retaliating.But, Suzaku and Xu Tu step in. Also, I show him my phone.it has my mom on speed dial. His face pales. He doesn't think it is worth dealing with both Sei's and my mom.
Wu Chen: IF I SEE YOU AGAIN IN THE CAVE, I WILL DESTROY YOU!
Zen: Yeah, yeah.Cry me a river; build a bridge; and get over it.
Wu Chen: YOU!
Soon after the confrontation, all the contestants head towards the cave entrance. Sei gives me some advice.
Sei: Trust me.Pick something cute and cuddly.
Zen: What?
Sei: Just trust me ok. Good Luck
Zen: Ok
Why would she want me to choose something cute and cuddly?I head into the cave with the others; still wondering what Sei could have meant.
???:POV
That was an interesting show. That kid is crazy. I have not laughed that hard in a long time. Maybe, I found someone worthy of testing.
A pair of sharp blue eyes glow inside the cave.
