Chapter 26: Operation Grave Flame
"Pull yourself together man, we all know what happened, but you don't see any of us running. We make a plan, we execute, and we moive on. Also, you 2, why did your rough him up? That's not how we treat our people."
Help Sean up, talk to him.
Jackson helps Sean to a barstool. He groans...."They killed him....not even with a gun or a knife...they just tazed him...."
The 2 offending gangsters approach. "We yelled for him to stop and he didn't. He kept going. You wanted him back." They shrug.
"Oy! The 'ell you think you're looking at!?"
Kick him in the crotch! Then do an uppercut!
Aaron charges on the hulking drunkard. (4 vs. 6) Before he can attack, the drunkard raises his open fist. (3 vs. 2+1) He swings but the blow is not powerful and only manages to shove Aaron back. As Aaron regains his balance, the drunk attacks again, (2+1 vs. 3+1) and this time Aaron is able to block him. Aaron goes on the attack, (4+1 vs. 1+1) and kicks the drunk right in his nuts. As the drunk buckles down in pain, Aaron goes for a finishing uppercut (4+1 vs. 1+1) and hits the drunk right in the chin. The drunk falls back with a loud smash, but is still in the fight. He tosses his bottle at Aaron, (1 vs. 5) but Aaron catches it and throws it back. (4 vs. 3) It doesn't shatter, but it hits him right in the torso. Aaron goes for the curbstomp, (1+1 vs. 1) and does a misaimed stomp right on the drunks shoulder. The drunk grabs Aaron's legs, (6 vs. 6+1) but Aaron jumps in the air, doing a somersault for no damn reason, (2+1+1 vs. 1+1) and hits the drunk in the stomach with a dropping elbow right out of the WWE. The drunkard heaves and then rolls over, groaning.
Drive to Helldriver territory, help with the body disposal.
Ride in the van to Hellrider territory, dump the bodies and dispose of them.
The preparations are made. The van is brought to the back of the pub. Jason, Dave, Mal, four footsoldiers and two fighters load the bodies into the back, all inside of large garbage bags. The 9 men find their seats and Jason takes the wheel. They drive off to Hellrider territory.
The crew is on edge. Every time a motorcycle is seen on the streets, everyone's eyes jump to it to confirm that it's not a Hellrider. But so far the trip goes smoothly.
Eventually, the group comes by a ditch by a small, inner-city streets. It's semi-hidden, so it looks good. The crew takes the bodies out and goes down the ditch, putting the bodies in a pile at the bottom. The soldiers cover the bodies in alcohol. Soon, a bonfire with the cops and Lucas in it starts. The party gives a watchful eye as the bodies burn. When they look nice and crisped, the gang goes back to their van. They hear the rumbling of a group of motorcycles somewhere nearby....
Alex gets to helping clean up the bar.
Alex puts some of the objects fallen off the wall back into place. Luckily most of the pictures and glass items didn't break.
Fight level 20 melee guy in sleep.
Mason has 2 more turns of rest. During that time, he fights a legendary fighter in China in his dreams....
Mason walks up the hill into the great temple, where the honored champion sits there meditating. Mason decides to go for the honorable approach: Flail arms and charge wildly at him. (3 vs. 4+4) The champion doesn't even open his eyes as he swings his palm upwards at the charging Mason. Mason runs into the palm and flies backwards, rolling back several feet like he got struck by a car. The champion slowly stands up, and Mason jumps back to his feet. He charges the champion again, (1 vs. 6) and runs at the champion with no restraint. (4+4+4 vs. 3) The champion punches Mason's head, decapitating him.William goes to find some idle soldiers, then assigns them to be the protection for his clients.
William sends 3 soldiers off to defend the mattress shop. His next payment should be ready by now...
