Chapter 29: Flash of Blue
"Snag it." Well. That was certainly blunt.
But to be honest. Leroy Never Liked the Rich Types. So he had no objections to robbing them blind.
They were pirates after all He continued to see the woman in the corner of his eye. Going up to more and more people. He squinted his eyes as they moved to the slot machines His mind going back to the games in front of them. They were in a constant stream of loosing and winning.
But with the Quick fingers of Kirk it Seemed like they were on the up swing through the entire night. Jeanne Her Self was able to figure out the way some of the mechanisms in the Machines worked, she was off at the Slot Machines, tampering with them and making sure they rolled perfect triples every time. Giving them advantages.
"Fine by me then" Kirk said with a big ol grin. He probably hated the rich just as much as he did. They had such tiny problems and were born with a natural ego the size of their mansion and walked across the poor to get over puddles in the street.
Plus he was envious that they just had so much money for no reason and wouldn't GRACIOUSLY give it all to Kirk. Two rich people combined, if having the heart, could've easily helped him out and saved him years of work! The Fishman kept snatching various things as they went on, each next thing taken up was pricier than the previous. It was a bit of a game to him now, too, and he was getting giddier and giddier.
"Ohhh, these machines. For the people who have no idea how to play games yet still wanna waste away cash" Kirk did play the slot machines a few times though, obviously not totally against the idea of a really small chance for so much money. Still. He had no idea about the woman Leroy had seen.
But then, Leroy Saw the Woman. Yet again.
This time Approaching The Three. He was able to see that her Eyes were wired and wild. Like she'd Look like she had just woken up from some sort of daze That's when something strange happened. A group of men came out of almost nowhere and seemed to usher her away.
Looking around at them almost with a sense of fear in her eyes. And yet she said nothing. Looking over to the other two and while they were having fun. Leroy simply stood up. And Walked after the Group of 'Chaperones' Keeping a distance behind them.
He wanted to see what was truly going on and what they were going to do with this poor girl Leroy stealthily ducked in and out of corners. And once they were in the hotel district where it was quieter. They turned down an Alley and Headed back to the City. The lights from the Hustle and Bustle glowing radiantly as it approached.
"I promise! Please! It won't happen again please!" The Azure haired woman pleaded.
"There ain't gonna be no Second time Sugar tits. You're gonna face the boss and he'll decide what's coming to ya." Spoke harshly the larger man, shoving her away.
Leroy's brow furrowed as he watched them. He looked to the rooftops and slinged his arm out and zipped to the top. Watching from a vantage point. He Jumped from Building to building as a singular run-down building came into view.
Coming to a Stop, Leroy crouched down. Hand over his knee as he watched the men roughly handle the woman. Something Bad was going on. But there was something in him wanting to see what happened next. Watching them shove the woman into the building.
He saw two armed men come out to stand guard. As soon as the Doors closed. He didn't even wait 5 seconds. Zipping across the sky with his gum gum fruit he landed in front of the two men and in a second both of them were on the ground bleeding He stopped for a moment.
And undid his sash before wrapping it around his waist. Leroy then reeled his foot back and SLAMMED his sole into the steel door! Like nothing, the Metal shattered. And revealed the Light on the inside to be men all taking watch up top. Many surround a door at the far end of the room.
"What the fuck!" Shouted the first
"Fuckin' Kill 'em!" Another yelled
A loud burst of gunshots filled the night! But they'd be too quiet for anyone from the city to hear due to the sheer amount of noise! Ducking and dashing between the bullets like nothing, Leroy Planted his fist into one of the men!
Then Bent forward and shot his foot behind him! His Shoe firmly placed into the nose of one of the other men! The Captain then Used the elongated limb to whip through the others in an instant! Leaving the two guards that popped off two shots from their impressively modern pistols at Leroy! But it mattered not.
For by the time the Bullets hit the far wall, His hand was in their faces, Slamming them into the cement wall hard enough to leave a crack!
"What the Fuck was that? Did you hear that? Everyone! Get ready! We have an Intruder! " Spoke a muffled voice from what sounded like down a set of stairs.
Punching through the door revealed just that. A Set of stairs. They seemed to go on forever as they went down deep beneath the earth. Leroy could hear the heavy music from above, coming from the streets rumbling. Almost giving him a back drop.
Simply walking down the steps he became illuminated. Seeing a long hallway in front of him. Hurdles of men game out of doors that seemed to be some sort of office? Storage? Something that kept these men busy.
Leroy had a cold scowl on his face. "Get out of my way." He spoke sternly. And with a tone. No. This aura that seemed to come off of him. It sent chills down the backs of nearly all the men. Yet they did not yield.
That evil looking sneer stretched across the captain's face.
