Chapter 94:
Devil hunting chronicles of the impossible city.
Marcelina was always anxious whenever this day came around, unlike the rest of the year she knew the Boss would be at his weakest, no shortage of people in the city would take advantage of such a window, nonetheless to worry in vain was not her routine so she was singing as she would do on any other business day. The guards were also on edge and hearing her voice made the men keep their calm.
''Damn aint she precious." One of the guards looking at her singing under the spotlight as he burned a cig on the second floor, he walked back with a pistol in hand as he mumbled to the rhythm, till he saw that one of the curtains on a nearby window had been moved and was now being waved by the wind.
"Guess someone left the window open." The guard stepped closer to the curtain to grab it and opened and he reached for the window the next thing he saw was the nuzzle of a gun. It was quick and the man was grabbed into the window before he fell, Aurora looked at the surroundings from the window with a handgun and a blade.
"Alright as planned you guys stay back, opening the passage needs two keys according to the agency, once you see the waterfall stop you guys go in for backup. " She looked back at Abraham as well, Aisha and Mr.Jeong were remaining outside, they would be rushing into the underground when they got the chance.
"Abram nodded as usual." And she didn't waste any more time jumping inside the club, all around the second floor, the rest of the members of their combined squad began to enter the lobby all with silenced handguns, they each immediately aimed at one of their guards to take them down simultaneously as the sound of Marcelinas singing developed the café, there was a sudden silence as she ended staring at her mic.
"This silence...I suppose this day was meant to come..."She let go of the mic as she looked above and saw men and woman in black suits pointing their weapons at her.
"All of you came here just for me. Worry not I Will show you all a good time worth it at our café." She let the mic fall as she singed a strong falsetto and the café exploded with the sound of gunfire, the guards below immediately realized something was amiss and opened fire towards the second floor.
The gunfire hit a wall, and as a statue had manifested in front of the singer, the devil that resembled a distorted figure of a woman opened the gaping mouth on its head as it stood with its long arms wide open.
"My dear dancing partner is here as well, im sorry to you all but I'm the unbreakable guardian of this café, you're all in my stage now, darlings." The statue seemed to bow as it began to flow even with its massive weight, mighty yet resembling a woman in a white gown the figure of the Diablessa spun in the air with grace and flew upwards to the second floor.
"Just you try and get up here devil!" A huge man with a mohawk haircut stood at the edge of the second floor with a shotgun. The demon received the blow to the head and recoiled.
"Have at that, devils are nothing to us Tribesmen!" The man simply known as the Boar laughed as the demon cracked its neck back into place and swung its long arm.
"Don't just stand there!" From the side a man just as tall tackled him out of the way, Rock from Abrams's team saved him from being decapitated but the devil looked down at them with its faceless shape. From below Marcelina walked out of the stage as the gunfire continued, but she was already shot from behind. From above Aurora jumped down from the second floor already pulling the trigger, she fell on the piano on the stage breaking it with a loud sound, Marcelinna groaned as she had been shot in the back and turned back with anger and stared at Aurora's red eye.
"I hope you know what you signed up for!" Marcelinna pulled a small pocket gun from a strap on her tight, under her elegant gown. Aurora jumped and rolled out of the piano and shot again both aimed at each other's head upon the stage, but the massive devil of stone flew down between them cracking the stage as they lost track of each other.
The guards below hurried towards the stage with their guns ready, but they were hit by machine gun fire as Rock stood at the edge with his machine gun ready, the devil had stepped out of their way as long as their enemies were humans they would not hesitate.
"Damn it, everyone take cover this is a full raid, hey John we need to hide we can't let anyone get to the boss." Near the center of the warfall, the two guards took cover behind the tables.
"Right, we need to keep the key..." The guard put his hand on his suit pocket and immediately began to sweat...
"The key is was gone."
"What do you mean the key is gone!" He pulled the key still in his pocket and fell as he was shot in the back. The other man was then hit on the head with a rifle and they were both ambushed at the same time.
Thomas had knocked him out cold and kicked the man while down the other ambusher was Bhavna who calmly kneeled to take the key from the corpse's hand.
"Why you even pickpocket him if we were going to kill them anyway Thomas."
"Cause I wanted his wallet too, lots of bills on it!" Bhavna punched Thomas in the head but he didn't let go of the wallet.
"Focus we got a job to take care of, she ran towards the side of the Waterfall and he hid the wallet in his pocket and ran as well they put where on the central pillar where the keylocks were barely visible its surface, and the waterfall stopped as the iron doors on its center opened, Thomas pumped his fist but docked as soon as they hear the sound of gunfire they both when to take cover in the same tables the guards were now death.
"I see, I guess they do know what they are doing." Marcelina looked at the opening waterfall and pointed at it and the devil statue flew above them towards them, but before it could reach them the statue stopped and turned around, Marcelina had a blade almost reach her neck as Aurora jumped from the broken stage she had barely manage to stop the blade with her arm.
"Hello there, im your only dance partner tonight!" Aurora already possessed by Amii laughed as she raised her monstrous demonic arm.
"No I already have a dance partner, without fear Marcelina sang and the demon screamed as well with a voice so intense the windows on the kafe all broke and both the hunters and the Ocassio guard tried to cover their ears, Amii was so close that her ear ruptured but it began to heal just as fast, her ear was bleeding but her mad smile didn't disappear, she stabbed Marcelina with her claw and the woman gave her a weak smile.
"Haha, Mr.Ocassio is right, devils are something else." Amii was punched by the stone devil that flew towards her throwing it through the curtains on the stage the massive statue was now floating to the side of Marcelina who was bleeding from her stomach.
"I don't care who you people are I'm not letting anyone hurt Mr.Ocassio he is all this town has." She stared at the curtain as she noticed a dense mist began to engulf the surrounding of the stage. Marcelina stood straight again as she threw the blood on her hand, the floating devil at her side began to spin around her as the mist was engulfing them.
"Hahaha, let's keep dancing lady." Amii ripped apart the curtains on the stage and walked into the limelight, her eye shinned as she moved to the side to evade a gunshot from Marcelina.
"This mist is you're doing?.... Mist I remember something like that happened before in Korea town..." Marcelina snapped her fingers as the massive devil opened the wide mouth on its head and seemed to giggle with a woman's voice.
"I suppóse it doesn't matter since death devils reap no souls" Diablessa flew to the side and grabbed the broken piano with both arms while floating higher than the two of them, Marcelina then pointed her gun at Aurora.
"This is my stage, so I will force out of it here and now!"
Not too far in front of the steel door to the deeps of the club, Abram walked between both members of their team.
"You all guard this place, I will go alone as planned." Abram pulled out his dagger as he looked at the mist enveloping both Aurora and Marcelina.
"If you don't come back in five minutes will come for you." Aisha grabbed his sleeve but he only looked at her with a sad expression.
"No, you don't come anywhere near me down there that's an order." He took her hand off him and walked into the dark entrance all by himself.
"Now, that captain sure is a stuck-up," Jeong said as he took cover at the entrance along with his rifle.
"That moron...sorry but I only follow orders from Captain Aurora...and she told me to not let you die."Aisha also took cover inside the entrance as the four of them kept shooting to keep any enemies at bay.
Abram walked downstairs as all light disappeared with the mist following his every step.
"I'm glad at least...she won't have to see me murdering again."He sighed as he began to disappear within the descent, soon enough he would be at the true heart of Ocassio Kafe.
