Chapter 36:

The New Recruit Base

White Knight: King of Eos


The Next Day

After a tense night the trio pack up camp and doesn’t say a word until they reach one of the Nighteye bases. “What’s the plan?” Chozen asked Leo. “Take out the snipers then me and Suki sneak in while Chozen stays outside to keep a watch for anyone on the roof.” Leo answered. “Why are we sneaking in when we could fight them head on?” Suki asked. “So we could find out some information before we could kill them.” Leo answered. The trio splits up and scouts for snipers. “Status?” Leo said over coms. “I count three on the roof.” Chozen said. “Suki?” Leo said. “I count two on the sides.” Suki said. “Chozen you know what to do.” Leo said. Chozen shoots his white arrows at the snipers on the roof, killing them. “You’re up Suki.” Chozen said. Suki warps to the sniper and throws a kunai slicing the sniper’s throat then she throws her spear above the roof, warps to it and throws the spear into the other sniper's head. “That’s all the snipers.” Suki said. “Perfect. Now let’s sneak in.” Leo said. Leo warps to the roof and finds an entry point. Leo slaps his palms together and puts his hands on the bottom of his shoes. “What are you doing?” Suki asked. “It’s a spell that makes my feet stick to walls. Do you want me to use the spell on you?” Leo asked. “Fine.” Suki answered. Leo slaps his palms together and puts his hands on the bottom of Suki’s shoes making them sticky. As Leo and Suki go into the base their feet stick to the ceiling. They hear a Nighteye speak and as they follow the voice they find a briefing for new recruits. “Listen up, newbies. This girl here is believed to be daughter of the oracle. She has the power of the gods at her disposal and one time we had her in our grasp but a perverted commander of ours Shin Kugisaki didn’t know and failed to capture her. The reason for that failure is the White Knight. His current name we don’t know but we know that he is strong enough to kill a shinigami and eliminate many of us. We also have a new threat: the Shinobi of Light. What we know about him is that he managed to kill an entire base of Nighteyes without a single person noticing.” The commander explained. “Shinobi of light, sounds interesting.” Leo thought. “Commander sir, do we have any tactics on how we can beat them?” A new recruit asked. Leo throws his dagger in front of the commander, warps to it and says to them “How about you show us.” Suki jumps behind the commander, puts him in a headlock and then the new recruits run towards Leo and Suki. Leo slaps his palms together, puts his hands on the ground and Leo yells “Lightning Style: EIGHT PILLAR CAGE!!!” Eight pillars come out of the ground forming a cage around the new recruits and they get electrocuted to death. The pillars go back into the ground and then Leo slaps his palms together deactivating his spell from earlier. He then looks at Suki, nods his head then Suki lets go of the commander. Leo then slaps his palms together and puts his hands on the ground and says “Earth Style: Concrete Prison.” A cage forms around the commander. “Where’s your office?” Leo asked. “Why don’t you go and find out.” The commander said. Leo puts his hand on the cage and says “Touch the cage.” The commander touches the cage and his hand gets shocked. “Now tell me where your office is or I’ll give you a nice ten thousand volt shock.” Leo threatened. “Alright alright. It's the corner office on the right of the second floor.” The commander said. “Finally. Now stay there.” Leo said laughing. Leo and Suki go to the commander’s office and find stacks of hundred dollar bills on his desk. “Holy shit. How much do you think there is?” Suki asked. “Probably 100k. I say we split 50k for the two of us.” Leo said. “Sounds fair.” Suki said. Leo takes 50k from the desk then Suki takes 50k from the desk and then they put it away in their arsenal. Suddenly they hear screaming. As they leave the office they see a white hooded man wearing a metal suit and a blank silver helmet breaking the concrete prison. “Where’s the king?” The man said. “What?” the commander said scared. “WHERE’S THE KING?!!!” The man shouted. “I don’t know.” The commander said. Leo and Suki warp to the prison and the figure pulls out the commander. “HEY!!! He said he doesn’t know where the king is.” Leo said. Leo and Suki summon their weapons. “Who are you?” Suki asked. “The man who's gonna take down Nighteye.” The man said. The man then snaps the commander's neck. “NO!!!” Leo shouts. Suki runs towards the figure and attempts to kill him but he dodges Suki’s attacks with ease. “What the hell? How does he know my moves?” Suki thought. The man then grabs Suki’s arm, hits it, and then Suki’s arm goes numb. The man then hits Suki in her leg and then the leg goes numb. He then hits Suki in the back of her head, knocking her out. “Do you wanna give it a try?” The man asked. Leo nods no and the man leaves. “Wait. At least tell me your name.” Leo said. “I’m the Shinobi of Light.” The Shinobi said. After the Shinobi of Light left the base Leo went to the roof and found Chozen knocked out as if he was in a battle. Leo then got Chozen and Suki and went into the woods and set up a campsite.
