As the sun began to set and I slowly approached the bar Yan called me to, I only could wonder how bad this "Situation" was for Gaz. I pushed open the door to the bar with the odor of several alien Alcohols hitting my nose and reminding me of more comforting times, as I made my way to the bar to find Yan I noticed nearly everyone here was either a bounty hunter or assassin all armed to the teeth. I ignored them for now as I went straight to the bar and noticed Yan's large form hunched over and slurping away at some odd drink probably something I would never  be able to pronounce. 

"About time you got here, I nearly got spotted a couple times taking our friends here." He told me. 

"Well, you probably should've taken them to somewhere else if you were almost spotted." I crossed my arms. 

He knocked back some of his liquor."As you can see, I didn't do well enough to get that far and someone told that he's here."

Suddenly the bartender appeared, he looked pretty much like an old school bartender with a bow tie and vest, in his hands was a glass he was cleaning with a white rag." Would you like to place an order sir?" He asked me. 

"No thanks, I'm not a drinker anymore." I answered. 

Right before he could tell me something else, a woman got between me and Yan, nearly pushing me. She was an abnormally pale woman with bright red eyes and long black hair, she was wearing black gloves and a dark coat. She slammed a gloved fist on the bar." You have him somewhere, I know you do, everyone else here knows it even, just hand him over." 

The bartender stared at the woman as if she was speaking Japanese to him,"Ma'am, I don't know who you are speaking of, if you wish to make an order please make one, I'd rather the customers not be bothered." 

"Speaking of orders, Max you think you could get me a bottle of this stuff?" Yan showed him his empty glass. 

The bartender nodded." Another bottle of Vatorian stout, excuse me." He walked away from the three of us to fetch the liquor for the big guy. The woman looked over to my direction and in response to it, I tried to look away from her so she wouldn't get a look at my face, but right out of nowhere she grabbed my chin and tried to force me to look at her. 

I batted the woman's hand away as she said."I know who you are, you're bigger game, but you're not who I'm looking for." 

"You shouldn't mess with my friend there, he's not one to handle rudeness lightly." Yan warned her. 

Knowing who she was here for, I chose not take the chance, screw this bar and fuck most of the people enjoying their drinks here. I slipped a tiny knife from one of my sleeves and swung the blade in her direction, surprisingly enough, she quickly dodged it and grabbed my wrist, for a woman as small as she was she oddly was strong enough to slow my hand down from stabbing her in the shoulder. 

Right out of my peripherals I noticed a guy getting up and rushing to the woman's aid, right before he could give her a hand, Yan smashed his cup into the man's face and knocked him on the ground. I stabbed my knife down into the assassin's shoulder and threw her away from me and Yan, I sighed as everyone else in The Den began to rise out of their seats. 

I pulled my cleaver from my jacket telling the crowd." Half of you in here probably know who I am, the other half don't, if you want to live, I'm giving you one stay of execution right now, leave!" I watched as a couple of the people slowly backed down and walked away, most of them being pirates really." Never thought pirates could make smart decisions." 

I chucked my cleaver at the group hitting one of bounty hunters in the shoulder, then I followed after it, I used one of my smaller knives to stab the same guy in a soft spot of his armor, I quickly kicked another guy near me before Yan jumped in punched a man that would've blind sided me. I yanked my cleaver from my first victim as Yan stood behind me covering my back, I prepared for the worst as they surrounded us, one of the armored bounty hunters punched me across the face, but in the moment I caught that same arm and took it off with my cleaver.

"Try not to focus on only one of them it will get you killed fast." Yan tried to warn me as I blocked a bottle with my arm. I got lucky as the shards didn't cut me, I slammed my cleaver into the Alien's gut before kicking him away. While the fight was only growing bloodier for me and tiring for Yan, Gaz finally came out from his hiding spot with Ash, I noticed him through the gaps of the aliens, unlike me and Yan they actually had guns. 

The second both of them fired off shots into the group, everyone scattered about the den flipping tables and taking cover all but one of them, it was the woman from before, the one with the black coat, she was holding a short samurai sword. I spun my cleaver around my hand, then blocked her sword," I'll collect his contract, then I'll collect yours Bates." 

I ignored her before punching her with my free hand, I quickly spun around, hoping that I could catch the assassin woman with a quick cut across her gut, but she surprised me by stopping my cleaver with her blade and even parrying me in the process. The woman sliced me up pretty, she slashed me twice across my chest, then caught me with another slice across my stomach, while the pain felt indescribable in many ways, my anger kept me standing, everything and everyone around me deafened, my face twisted into a scowl right as she stabbed through my gut. 

Letting my anger get to me, I dropped my cleaver and boxed the woman's ears hard enough to leave them visibly red, while she held her ears in pain, I pulled the sword out of my guts slamming the handle into her nose, I didn't waste time trying to return the favor, I tried to stab her but she was more agile than I thought. The thin assassin had her gloved hand covering her bloody nose, but she was still able to move as if didn't have a single injury, my swings with her sword seem to only get so close but to miss. 

Getting a lucky swing, I cut her across the stomach and watched her fall to her knees and soon see Gaz and Ash appear next to me out of the blue. I just realized that most, if not all of the bounty hunters were dead in the bar, I tossed the sword on the floor in front of the woman." Hey B-man you okay?" Gaz asked me. 

" I don't get hurt Gaz, I get angry." I told him calming down now. 

Before we could finish off the last assassin, Gaz stopped Ash from shooting the woman." Naw, if she's really a member of the Amon assassins, then killing one of them will really piss them off, best to leave her alive." 

Suddenly a new guy appeared, he dressed just like Gaz, dark hoodie and dark pants. The guy was a human with bright white skin and from what I could tell he was an albino, on his back he carried what looked like a metal guitar case." This place is a shit hole." He sounded like he was in a different place as he looked around the bar. 

Ash quickly shoved a black revolver in his face."If you're here for the bounty you're gonna have to get through me first." The myr woman threatened him. He put his hands up before calmly saying."I'm no scrub assassin." He told her. 

"If I wanted to kill Gaz, you wouldn't have known I did it." He moved the revolver before saying." You're lucky my agency looks into things like this, they claimed that your contract is false Gaz." The guy out a doodad and brought up a hologram of Gaz's contract with the word false going over the numbers." Might want to get out of here, the Politsiya might be here soon and I don't want to miss the bus." He told us. 

Just like that, he left just as quickly as he arrived, acting quickly we rushed out the back into the night, but Ash went back to get Noi and luckily she caught up with us carrying Noi in her arms covered in a layer of sweat, it was a long trek back to the warehouse, but once we got back I took a much needed smoke. I lit up a cigarette and looked up to the moons in the sky, I sighed, feeling a bit tired, maybe the loss of blood combined with a run was making me light headed, I sighed before taking a long drag. This wasn't even my whole night and I had to help with something that I didn't even cause, once I knew everyone was okay, I flicked my cigarette away before walking back to the city, there was 'work' that still needed to be done.
