Chapter 11:

Londinium

Geminus


LONDINIUM - FOUR HOURS AFTER ESCAPING THE ATTACKERS, LIAM GEMINUS VENTURES ONTO LONDINUM ALONGSIDE JASON, YURI AND HERALD. MEANWHILE, GRANT GEMINUS HAS ATTEMPTED TO FLEE FROM BEORMINGAHĀM TO AID JASON AND HIS BROTHER.

At nighttime, the streets of Londinium were soaked in neon lights and its fancy atmosphere but it was also filled with illegal dealings and murders that occurred in the background, away from the naked eye. The city people knew of these horrible crimes being committed and yet, little has been done about it. Especially since the decline of policeman and policewomen, it gave thugs the upper advantage, allowing them to free cause anarchy and crime.

In the an abandoned warehouse, far away from the neon soaked streets, Liam as well as Yuri and Herald were hiding as Jason's uncle had already predicted their arrival and place an essenstially large bounty on the four, causing some of Jason's men to turn against them.

Yuri typed away on an old untrackable laptop while Herald kept watch from outside. Liam had a dummy, that he had created to practice his boxing, as he focused on improving his speed. He practiced non stop to the point that he felt his mind going numb.

"You should really ease up on the punching routine." Said Herald, his gaze locked onto to what was happening to the streets. "I swear these good-for-nothing scumbags have nothing better to do with their lives."

"Thats why they're called 'Good-for-nothing'." Said Yuri.

Herald glances at Yuri with annoyed expression as he growled lightly. He says to Yuri "You know you should consider going to clown school because hacking school ain't your specialty."

Yuri sarcastically answered "Funny, I attempted to attend clown school when I was 4 but they kicked me out because my mommy wouldn't get me a giant magical horse with wings that taste like candy floss."

Liam's hearing was oblivious to the sound of Yuri and Herald arguing as his mind was focused on the dummy. In his mind, he imagined the dummy to be Grant and during sparring, Liam saw in his mind Grant blocking the attacks with his hands with incredibly fast reaction time. Suddenly, the illusion Grant punches Liam, causing the real Liam to fall back, likely his mind was growing numb.

Yuri and Herald stopped arguing and ran to Liam's aid, the second he fell on his back. Jason finally returned and with good news. He said to the trio "I have received word that my uncle is planning to open up a new exhibit with paintings that Downing Street had kept hidden from the public."

"What does this mean?" Asked Herald, "Sure, we will get to see the paintings but what value will that bring to this mission?"

Jason answered "Well, he'll be there to unveil the paintings in person. So that'll mean you guys will have the opportunity to eliminate him on the spot." As he delivered his words, his eyes slowly shifted to pure insanity. "The day of the exhibit will occurr tomorrow so we best prepare for the attack."
