Young Hope: Chapter 10

In a calm neighborhood near a towering school, a purple hooded woman with purple hair and no sleeves was staring out in the night from her porch. “He should be back by now.” she relfected. Then, the front door slowly opened and out came a small purple haired boy in pajamas. “Mommy. What are you doing out here?” he asked while rubbing his eyes. “Nothing, Roy. You’re dad had to work awfully late and I’m just out here waiting for him.”. “Do you want me to wait out with you?”. “No. That’s alright sweetie. You just go back to bed. You got school in the morning, remember.” the woman said as she pushed her son back inside. “Okay. Night mommy.” the little boy said. When the boy went back inside, the woman shut the door and looked out in the night. “Stephen, where are you?”. In a dark room, with a single light, the only thing illuminated was a single table with two chairs. One of them was being used by a teenage Roy, who was looking over a file. “So, you want me to escort you to Santa Rosa and try and flush out a gang called...uh...the- the Meladoche Mafia? Am I read that right?” he says. “Yes, you are.”. “And what, pray tell, did these Meladoche boys do to you to want them dead?”. “I can’t really say. It’s a secret.”. “Of course it is. Can I at least get your name, Miss...”. Over on the other side of the table was a girl with maroon hair to match along side her maroon dress, black sleeves, and gold wrist and knee braces. “Shen Mi.”. “Shen Mi? Is that like Chinese or something?”. “Heylin, actually.”. “Never heard of it. Okay, Miss Shen Mi, as soon as I get ready, we can set out to Santa Rosa and kill some Meladoche bitches.”. “Your not gonna ask any other questions, like why a 13 year old girl would employ the help of a merc?”. “Not really, all I really care about is what’s in it for me. How much are you paying?”. Shen Mi smiles and says: “Something far more precious then money.”. Roy laughed and responded with: “You know how many times I’ve heard that? I give you one guess what happened after each of them.”. “I didn’t think that would work. Let me offer a bonus then.”. The girl pulled out a suit case from under the table and opened it up to reveal stacks of money. Shutting the suitcase, Roy decided with a small grin: “I think I can work with this. Now once we get there. We’ll set out to find them.”. “Actually, I need to do a couple really important stuff before we look for the mafia.” Shen Mi added as she took back the case. “What kinda stuff?” Roy asks. “Oh, it’s very important. Trust me.”. In a Santa Rosa mall, Shen Mi was walking through, looking at all the pretty stores around. Roy behind her, carrying all of the stuff she bought. “I’ve score a lot of good stuff, the mall around here has some really cheap deals.” Shen Mi boasts. “Um...Is all this stuff really as important as you say it is? When are we actually gonna look for these Meladoche guys?”. “This stuff is important...to me. Can’t really go all the way out here without scoping out the stores first. That’d be insane.”. “Lady, I’m a merc, not a servant. You promised a lot of dough for this job.”. “Merc are supposed to be flexible, right. We’ll right now, you’re helping me with my shopping. Beside, it’ll be a while before the mafia rears its ugly head. Might as well relax while we wait.”. “Fine. Can we at least stop at a food court first. I’m getting hungry.”. At the food court, both Shen Mi and Roy were sitting down with their food of choice. While Shen mi was snacking on a pizza, Roy was eating a full blown bacon cheese burger. The girl notice Roy looking out in the distance and asks: “Whatcha staring at?”. “Just doing some scoping myself.”. Roy looks over to a young couple and states: “That girl over there looks like she could party. Her boyfriend don’t look bad either.”. He looks over to another guy and commented: “That guy could use a little work.”. Roy looks over to an exotic looking girl with colorful makeup and neon hair. ”Ooh, now there’s an adventure.”. “Get around often?” Shen Mi asks with one eye closed. “Little bit.”. He then looks over to a man with orange hair across the food court eating a burger. “He he. That’s funny. That one looks a lot like my...L...l-l-like my...”. Roy speech starts to deteriorate the more he looks at the man. Shen Mi watches as Roy got up from his seat and starts to approach the man. The man was enjoying his bacon cheeseburger, when he heard somebody behind him say: “Dad?”. He turns around and see Roy with this dumbfounded look on his face. With shock, the man swallows his food and replies: “Roy...i-is that you?”. With that question passed, Roy’s faces turned to anger as his fists aggressively tightened. Roy threw his fist up in the air and swung at the man. Shen Mi lifted her hand and glowed lime green. Before Roy could hit him, the man quickly got up and got out of the way of the swing. He was shocked to see Roy able to break the table he was eating on with ease. The man starts sprinting for his life as Roy starts flying behind him. Roy shoots black lasers at the man, who narrowly avoids the beams. Running past a kiosk, Roy stops right at the little unmanned store. The man looked back and saw the kiosk flung into the air, careening straight towards him. The dad stops, the kiosk nearly crashes into him. He runs into an empty clothing and hides inside a changing room. Catching his breath, he hears somebody else walking in. His breath goes quite as he hears the echoing footstep. A quite moment passes before an arm breaks through the door and pulls him out. Roy pulls his dad out from the changing room by his shirt collar and literally throws him out of the store. As Roy walks towards him, the man starts crawling backwards. “Take it-take it easy son.”. “Don’t call me son!”. “Roy calm down. I can explain.”. “Explain what? Explain why you just disappeared on your family for over a decade!? How you left my mom buried in debt!?”. The man was backed against a wall as Roy approached. Roy grabs his father by the neck, holds him up against the wall and readies one more blast in his other hand. “Give me one good reason why I shouldn’t turn you into ashes. One reason why I shouldn’t make you pay for leaving your family behind and putting mom in so much financial trouble!”. “Because I never wanted to leave.” the man uttered. The man’s answer leaves Roy shocked, making him loose his grip on the mans neck. Shen Mi walks around the corner and sees Roy kneeling to the man sitting on the floor. “Start explaining. Now.” he demands. “I didn’t mean to leave the both of you in such a rut. But I couldn’t take any of you with me in hiding.”. “Hiding?”. Both the man and Roy got up. “Yeah, hiding. From a dangerous gang that had been looking for me.”. As they walked back, the mall was completely fine, no holes, no ashes, the kiosk was even back where it was. “It’s been so long. I think if some gang was chasing you, They’d be all dead by now. Or at least, gave up.”. All the people around them were acting normal, as if all that just transpired never happened. “It a little more complicated then that. Even if it were true, I can’t really leave.”. “Why not?”. As they walk through the mall, the man asked his son: “So when did you get super powers “It’s a long story. I don’t want to get into it right now.”. He looks back and sees Shen Mi following behind them, staring at her phone. “And the girl with you?”. “She’s just a client. I’m a merc. It’s what I had to do to help mom out with her money troubles since you left.”. “Client? Roy, she looks 13.”. “It doesn’t matter where the job comes from. Just as long as what you get in the end.”. “Well, what does she want.”. “Look are you gonna keep mouthing off questions, or are you give me answers?”. “Right, right. Just hang on, we’re almost there.”. “Almost where?”. As they past by the food court, where Shen Mi, left her bags, the bags vanished as the girl past by. All of them walked to the other side of the mall to a garage repair shop. Walking inside, they saw a somebody with oil covered overalls working under the hood of a car. “Hey, Jenny.” he greeted. The woman looks up from the hood, to show her long blonde hair. “Stephen, baby. Watcha doing here?”. “I’m on my lunch break and thought I come over to see my favorite girl.”. “Aww.”. Both Stephen and Jenny hugged and kissed, dumbfounding Roy. After kissing, Jenny looks over to Roy and asks: “Stephen. Is that who I think it is.”. “Yep, this is Roy.”. “Oh so you’re Roy. I heard a lot about you from yadad. Name’s Jenny.”. The woman extends her hand out to Roy. Roy looks at the hand, then back to them. “Dad, what the fuck! Who is this?”. “Um...How do I break this to you.” Stephen wonders. “Oh, baby. Just tell him.” Jenny says. “Alright. Roy, this is my wife.”. Roy’s pupils shrank as soon as he heard that statement. Countless thoughts swirled into his mind, all of them overwhelming him with questions. He started tumbling back about to fall over, but catches himself on a counter, the sudden shaking makes the tool laid across the counter fall over. “Roy, are- are okay?” Stephen asks. “Okay? A-am I okay!? What the hell kinda question is that!? I find out that the dad that left me a decade ago is not only alive, but married another woman! How do you think I feel!?” Roy roared as he stood up. “Roy, calm down. I know this a lot to take in, but-” Stephen tries to say. “But what!? How you were forced to ran off and some random garage shop chick!?”. “Hey! Jenny isn’t some garage shop chick. I’ve know her since grade school. We’ve met each other ever since I was in hiding. She’s been helping me cope and sooner or later we got married. Funny how life works like that.” Stephen concluded. “What about mom!? Do know how much she cried when you left? How much she worked herself just to pay of her loans?”. Just then, a small boy with blonde hair walked into the garage and questioned: “Mommy, what’s what all the yelling?”. Everyone looks over to the kid, with Jenny saying: “It’s nothing baby. Just having a guest over. Go play outside with your toy trucks.”. The kid runs out of the garage, saying: “Kay mom.”. Roy turns back to both of them with shocked awe and utters: “No.”. “I guess easing into that is out the window. Might as well be blunt about it then. Roy, that was...your step brother.”. All the feeling just sinks right out of Roy, causing him to stumble back and nearly faint. “His names Markus. He’s just turn 8.”. “I...I...I gotta...I gotta leave.”. Roy storms out of the garage and right outside the door, where Shen Mi was waiting. “What happened in there?” she asks. “I...I just gotta think for a while.”. He start to walk off, with Shen Mi asking: “What about the job?”. “Just...not right now. I need to be alone.”. Roy walks around the garage to the small park outside. He sits on the bench next to the playground and stares at the ground with both hands above his head. “How could he do all this?” he murmers. “It’s not really his fault if you think about it.” the voice in his head says. “The hell do you mean by that?”. “I’m just saying that he might have left you to try and keep you from harm.”. “He could have took us with him. He didn’t have to leave all on is own.”. “You don’t know the full story. Perhaps he was in a hurry to try and get away.”. “Oh and I suppose you do, don’t you? You have no idea how this effects me. This whole time, I thought my dad might’ve died or something. But it turns out, he’s just been bumming around in California making a new family, instead of talking to the one he already has. He hasn’t talked to us once since he left.”. “...Well what’s stopping him now?” the voice says in a stern manner. As he’s contemplating, he notices Markus next to him, staring at him. He puts his hands away and asks: “What the hell are you staring at?”. “You.” the kid says. “I can see that, but why?”. “What were you and my parents talking about in there?”. “Erm...Just- just adult stuff is all.”. “Are you my brother?” Markus asks. “...Yes.”. “Okay...Do you wanna play with me?”. Roy gave an exhausted sigh and says: “Sure, why not.”. Both of them went up to the swing, where Markus sat on the swing and asked: “Can you push me?”. “Sure.” Roy said as he got behind him. He lightly pushed the boy up in the air. The boy starts to laugh as he swings back and forth. “Higher.” he says. Roy pushes the boy a little harder, making the boy swing higher. “Higher.” Markus says. Roy pushes Markus higher, going over the bar of the swing. “Higher!” he shouts. Roy pushes Markus hard, making him fly out of the swing and into the air. “Oh shit!” he yelped, then rushed towards Markus. The little boy was giggling as he was flying through the air, but when he saw that he was quickly plummeting through the air, he started to scream. Before his head could hit the ground, something caught him in the nick of time. Markus looked up and saw his older brother with his black wings, shading the sunlight as both of them dangle in the air. “Wow.”. Roy put Markus down on the ground easily. “You have superpowers!?” he eagerly asks. “Uh, yeah. Did I forget to mention that?”. Roy landed back down on the ground, withdrawing his wings. “Sorry about pushing you off the swing like that. I haven’t really pushed anybody off a swing since...n… Wh-why don’t we play something safer. Like...uh...”. “Sand castles?”. Roy snaps his finger and says: “That’s it.”. Both Markus and Roy were in the sandbox, trying to make sand castles. Roy tried to keep the sand up, but he couldn’t even get it up. “Mm.”. He saw that Markus was having no trouble building sand up. “Hey, how are you keeping the sand up like that?” he asks. “You just add water.” Markus responds. He takes a water bottle out and pours the rest of it on the sand. The little boy takes the wet sand and starts clumping it together, forming it into a little tower. “Huh...Smart. You might make a good architect. Markus giggles as he smiles. He hands Roy his empty water bottle and asks: “Can you refill this for me.”. “Um, sure. Where do I...”. Roy sees a water fountain nearby. “Ah, there.”. As he’s filling the bottle, the voice in his head comes back and says: “You seem be enjoying yourself.”. “A little. Kinda cool to have a little brother, I guess.”. “Yes. It seems your father actually raised an alright son. Perhaps he’s not as bad as you perceived him to be.”. Roy is silent as he stops filling the water and screws the cap back on. “One chance.” he replies. “I knew you’d come around.”. As he walks back, he sees Markus with another kid. The other kid kicks Markus’s sand castle down. Markus tries to fight back by getting behind him, bu the other kid knocks the little boy down and reaches down for him before walking off. Roy approaches his little brother, who he saw crying. “What happened?” he asks. “That kid came over and kicked my sand castle. Then he knocked me down and stole my elf hat.” Markus sobbed under his crying. “Elf hat?”. The little boy sniffled and lamented with: “Yeah. My dad gave it to me. He said it was very precious and I should take care of it.”. Markus stopped crying and realized: “Oh hey. I know something. Why don’t you go over their and beat him up for me?” Roy looks over to the kid, then back to Markus, who was smiling at him. “Markus, I can’t beat up a little kid. I’d get arrested.”. The little boys smile began to fade. “Why don’t you go fight him. If that hat was so precious to you, then you fight for it. Simple as that.”. “But, I-I can’t fight him. Look, he’s way bigger then me. He’d just beat me up.”. “Not if you know where to hit him. Let me tell you a secret.”. Roy points to the side of his stomach, saying: “See right there. That’s where you’re kidneys are located. If they get hit, it’d hurt a lot. Punch you’re bully right there and he should go down real easily.”. “But…isn’t that wrong?” Markus asks. “Man! He’s bullying you! Fuck em! If your being threatened, don’t just sit their thinking it’s wrong to fight back, kick his ass!”. “Okay.”. Markus gets up and goes over to the bully. Roy watches as both of them start fighting. The fight quickly stopped when Markus punched the bully in the side of his stomach, making him topple over. Markus crouched over to the bully and took something from him. He ran back to Roy with a smile on his face. “It worked! I hit him wear you told me to and it worked. I even got my hat back. See?”. The little boy shows Roy a green elf's hat with a yellow fuzzy cotton ball. Looking closely at the hat, he says: “Huh. You know that hat looks kinda familiar. Think dad might’ve shown it to me once.”. “Thanks for helping me out.” Markus thanked as he put the hat in his pocket. Roy tussled the little boys hair and said: “Eh, no problem.”. He was about to walk away, when he heard Markus say: “Hey, wait!”. Roy turned back to the kid, who asked: “Um...I always wondered what I’d be like to fly. Do...Do you think you can fly me around the city?”. Roy approached the little kid and picked him up, putting the kid in his back. “Hang on tight.”. Markus held onto Roy as hard as he could. Roy jumped into the sky, the boy on his back hanging on to the back of his hoodie as he ascended. Markus eyes were shut tight as Roy flew. Both of them were thousands of feet into the air. “Hey, check out the view.” Roy asked. The little boy slowly opened his eyes and was amazed to see the view. A majestic view of the entire city as the sunset cast twilight upon the mountains, giving Santa Rosa an orange glow. “Wow. The city looks so pretty from up here.” Markus awed. “So...Got anywhere in mind we can go?”. “How about...that mountain over there.”. “Alright.”. Roy flies towards the mountain, the wind blowing in their faces. Markus looked over to the side and saw a flock of bird flying beside them. The little boy reached out to try and touch one of the birds, but they flew away before he could. Landing on top of the mountain, Markus looked down to the town below and saw the setting sun shine on the countless buildings. “I’ve never seen the whole town like this before. All the cars passing through look like little ants.” “Yep. I was pretty astounded by my first time too...Flying I mean.”. “Do you think I can get super powers like you?”. “I don’t know. Maybe.”. “Well how’d you get your powers?”. Roy started sweating, saying: “Um...Let’s...I don’t want to talk about that right now.”. “Why? Did something bad happen?”. He frantically looked around as Markus started at him, awaiting an answer. He turned toward the horizon and pointed out: “Uh, H-hey, look at the sunset.” The little boy turn his gaze away from his big brother to look towards the setting sun. The sun ducking behind the mountains on the other side of town created a stunning backdrop for the town. As they stared out to the shining horizon, both of them sat down in the grass. After a moment of staring at the sunset, Markus sighed and admitted: “I-I’m...sorry.”. “Huh? What’cha being sorry for?”. “Part of the reason I wanted you to fly me around was to get away from the playground in case somebody saw me punch that kid.”. Roy burst out laughing, making the little boy say: “Hey! Don’t laugh! It ain’t funny!”. “No. Not that. It’s...It’s just that I probably would have done the same thing when I was your age.”. Markus looked confused as Roy giggled. “Ah, don’t worry. If I know bullies, then he wont bother with you anymore.”. “Really?”. “Yep. Bullies like that kid are often cowards who like to pick on small, vulnerable kids. With what you showed him, I doubt he’d even look at you funny anymore.”. Roy got up and stretched while saying: “Whelp...Time to get you home before it gets dark.”. “Wha-Why now? I wanna hang out with you more.”. “I got important stuff to do, kid. But maybe I’ll come by and visit you every now and again.”. “You promise?”. Roy crouched to Markus’s level and reassured: “I promise. Now let’s get you home.”. Flying back to the mall, Roy dropped off his little brother back to playground and waved at him as he walked back to the garage. When he got to the backdoor, he grabbed the doorknob and took a moment to breath. He walked back in and heard talking through the small hall. Looking in the lounge, he saw both Jenny and Stephen talking with Shen Mi. “Oh hey, Roy. You were out there for quite a while. We were just talking with your friend here.”. “You’re dad seems really nice. We were just talking about why he left. If you ask me, he really didn’t mean to leave you the way he did. Maybe you could use this time to reconnect.” Shen Mi suggested as she made the tea she was drinking float in midair with the spoon stirring itself. “Why didn’t you tell us she knew actual magic?” Jenny asked. Roy looked at Shen Mi, then back at his dad. “Okay, look. Here’s exactly what’s gonna happen. You’re gonna call mom and tell her what happened, where you’ve been and what you’ve been doing.”. “What!? But-”. “I know, that she’s gonna be real pissed, but you out of everyone, she deserves to know about all this the most. Especially about my newly found stepbrother. I’m wanting to spend more time with him, so you’re gonna come clean.” “But what about the gang that’s after me? If they find out that I’m still around, they’ll come for my family.”. “Oh get real, Stephen. I mean how long has it been, like 10 years? This so called gang you’re worried about has probably forgotten about you, or is more likely dead. I guarantee you that whatever was chasing you isn’t even gonna care.” Just then, all of them heard the sound of an explosion. “What was that?” Shen Mi questioned. “Sound’s like it came from outside.” Jenny added. Everybody ran outside and looked to see the playground smoking. Approaching, they saw a music note, a Treble clef, scorched onto the pavement. “What happened?” Jenny asked. “No...No!” Stephen uttered as he started to break down. “What’s the matter with you?” Roy questioned. “They found me. I thought we were safe.”. “Who found you?...Wait, are you talking about that gang? Is this their symbol?”. Roy asked as he looked at the mark. Shen Mi looked over to some playground equipment and found a note attached to the slide. Reading the note, she says: “I think you’ll want to see this.”. Roy walked up to the girl, saying: “What is it?”. He took the note and read it aloud saying: “Heyo, Steph boy. Hope your ready to pay your dues. If you don’t come to the address printed on the back of the note, then your kid’ll listen to the eternal lulluby. Signed, the one and only...Meladoche Mafia.”. “They took Markus!? No! I should have been out here with him.”. “Steph, baby. Calm down. Let’s just call the cops. I’m sure they’ll handle this.”. “I’ll get’em.” Roy says. “Wh-What?” Stephen says as he looks up to his son. “I said I’ll get him back.”. Roy turns to Stephen and said: “But don’t think this means that I’ll forgive you. After all this is done. You’re calling my mom, got it?”. “Roy. If you get him back, I’ll do anything you ask.”. Roy turns to Shen Mi and snaps his finger at her, saying: “Yo! Uh, Shenmue. You coming too.”. “Excuse me?”. “You’re the one who wanted to kill the Mafia so badly. I just think it’s fair that you pull your own weight.”. “Isn’t a mercs job to act on behalf of their client?”. “Normally, yes. But do you honestly think you can’t help? I mean it’s pretty obvious that you have some grasp in the arcane. Or...Maybe you think you’re not strong enough.”. “What was that?”. “I don’t think you can do it. I mean, who can blame me. All I’ve seen you do is fix a mall and lift a teacup. Not much to go on, really.”. “Oh ho! You would be very surprised at what I’m capable off.” Shen Mi retorted in a threatening manner. “Really? Why don’t you prove it then? Let’s go to the mafia’s place and kick their asses.”. “Fine, lead the way.”. “Gladly.”. Both Roy and Shen Mi rocket towards the sky. In the air, both of them looked below the city. “Right, now give me a moment while I track your little brothers mana.” Shen Mi said as she put her hands together and concentrated. “No thanks. I already know where he’s at.”. Shen Mi looked at Roy, breaking her focus as she uttered: “What? How?”. “Uh...Don’t really have time to explain. Let’s just call it a sixth sense for now. Come on.”. Roy started to descend down to the ground, with the witch girl on his tail. Both of them landed near a large building three times the size of a warehouse, facing the big door with a music note on the face. Roy put out his hand towards the door and said: “Alright, just stand back and I’ll have this door down in no time.”. “Now hang on a moment. You didn’t just bring me along to show off, did you? Let me take care of the door?”. “You got something?” Roy asked as he put down his hand and turned to the girl. Shen Mi stood in front of Roy and declared: “Watch and learn.”. She put out both palms towards the door and made her hands glow lime green. With a telekinetic force, she forced the door of her hinges and started to crush them into a ball. The ball of scrap fell to the ground with a crash. The girl gave a smug smile to her merc for hire, who admitted: “Not bad. Course, I can do that with my bare hands, so...”. The smile broke, suddenly being replaced with an upset frown. Walking inside, Shen Mi used her glowing hands to light the way. “So, what exactly do you want from these Meladoche boys.” Roy asked. “Didn’t I say that was a secret?”. “Oh come on. You’ve seen my family life. Think it’s only fair to give me a bite.”. “Oh fine. I was planning on stealing something of theirs.” Shen Mi admits. “Like what?”. “Nothing much. Just a little artifact that I’m after. That’s really it.”. “Artifact?” “Ah ah ah. That’s all you’re getting for now.”. “Ah...”. Suddenly, the room lit up, showing them to be in a big room with a tiled floor. In front of them were three dancers, dressed in what looked to be disco attire. “The hell?” Roy asked. “Welcome kiddies, to the Meladoche mafia. The musical mafia gang that’s been going strong for over fifteen years, delivering a crime spree of hits to town after town.”. Spotlights shine on the three groovy goons as they began to pose, sporting funky hairdo and fly outfits. “It seems you stumbled into our little abode.” “We can’t let you little birdies fly around in here.”. “So all of you are about to take your leave.”. “But not before...”. All three of them spin around, striking a pose while pointing at the two. “You taste the beats of our funky wrath!”. The tiled floor beneath them lights up in a multitude of colors. Both Roy and Shen Mi stood and started at the three, at each other, then back at the three. They burst out in laughter. The sudden laughing breaks the three minions poses, offended by the twos guffaws. The two lean on one another as they try and control they’re laughter, but looking back at their opponents can’t help let out more uncontrolled giggles. Roy took a deep breath and asked: “Are you kidding? Please tell me they’re kidding?”. “I know. I haven’t had a laugh like that in a while.” Shen Mi admitted under her giggling. “They laughing at us! Can you believe that.” one of the funky dancers hissed. “They won’t be laughing for long.” The middle dancer raised his hand and snapped his finger, making funky disco music blare through the room. “Oh my god. They’re serious.”. The goons start dancing to the beat of the rhythm. “Okay, that’s enough.” Roy said as he creates a black ball of energy. He threw the ball at the dancers, only for all of them to dodge the lethal sphere almost instantly. “Um...”. “Hm. You call that a blast? Watch this.” one of the dancer mocked. Out from his hand came a glowing note. He threw a volley of them in time with the beat. Roy tried to dodge the notes, but something made him stay still as he took all the shots. Some notes flew toward Shen Mi, who created a barrier to block the blasts. All of the goons started to move towards them in with the Rhythm. Roy got up and saw one of the funky goons approach. He swung his fist at her, only for the dancer to quickly dodge and counter with three punched to the stomach, side, and face, all timed to the beat of the song. Shen Mi saw another one of the goons coming her way. She launched snakes out from her arms towards the dancer. The goon dodged the oncoming serpents and threw some notes at her. In a blaze of green flames, Shen Mi vanished before the notes could hit her. The dancer looked around, trying to find where the girl went. Shen Mi watched from below as she was waving her hands, then pointed her glowing palms at the goon. Suddenly, the dancer was engulfed in green flames. The girl watched as the dancer was frantically dancing to the beat while on fire. He then started to rapidly spin around, shaking the flames off his body, ending with a funky pose. Roy was trying to block the other two dancers attacks, but he couldn’t block in time, the dancers pummeling him. “What’s going on? I can’t move my body the way I want it to.” he asks. “You slaves to the beat baby. We all are.”. “Only it decides when we get to move.”. Roy tried to kick both of them, but the minions kicked Roy up in the air. The boy landed on the glowing tiles with a thud As he got up, he started to notice the beat of the song. Both minions lunged at him and started to pummel the boy. Roy braced the hits, feeling the tempo of their attacks, focusing on the rhythm until… Roy grabbed one of the dancers legs just before she could kick him. The dancer was shocked as Roy gave a devious smile. He threw the dancer to the other in time with the beat. As both of them got up form the blinking floor, they saw Roy bopping his head to the rhythm. Shen Mi hovered down to the ground next to the dancer and stared to walk backward. Under her feet, a small green circle was left where she walked. The dancer was dancing towards, shooting music notes at her. The witch grabbed the notes with her hands then threw them up above, making them vanish in a green blaze. Small lime green portals opened up all around the dancer, shooting out his notes back at him. He fell on the glowing tiles face first. The tiles around him turned lime green, then sprouted out vines that entangled the goon. They then slammed him on the ground over and over in time with the beat. Shen Mi started to bop her head in time with the rhythm, saying: “Hm. You know. I think I’m starting to like this.”. Roy. walked over to them in the beat. The dancers blasted notes towards him, but Roy flew up and dodged the note in time with the song. He landed in between them, the disco dancers jumping back. They started throwing attack after attack at Roy, but the boy was blocking each hit, using the beat to guide him. He then counter by blasting lasers at both of them. With one blast both of them when down. The music stopped. Roy looked over to Shen Mi. Beside her, the goon she was facing was knocked out and covered in vines. “Bet you think differently about my magic now, don’t you?” she smugly asked. “Eh, portal thing was pretty cool, I guess. Roy looks over to his beaten enemies and says: “Did you know about these guys and their weird music powers?”. “Not entirely. It’s quite honestly a first for me. I mean using music to fight? How ridiculous.”. “Yeah, it’s kinda dumb.”. Walking through a corridor, they come to a giant music hall, fitted with rows of velvet seating. The front of the hall lit up and revealed a band of six musicians, each carrying with them a classical instrument. A violin, a small harp, a strapped keyboard piano, a pipe, a bass drum, and a tuba. “Greetings, our fair intruders. I would like to personally thank you for coming out to listen to our humble medley. We hope you enjoy the show.” the man with the violin announced. “Show? You barely have enough for an orchestra. How much of a show can 6 people do?” Shen Mi interjects “Oh, we’re so glad you asked.”. “No you don’t!” Roy shouted. He then shout a beam at the Sextet. The man in with the violin smiled as his partner in with the drum stepped forwards and beat his mighty instrument. Roy was shocked to see his beam was broken up by the sound waves coming from the bass drum. “What!?”. “And with out further interruptions, let the concert began.”. The violinist took the lead, giving a gentle melody with the others joining in the ensemble. Out from the violinists instrument shot out a blazing flame that rocketed it’s way toward the two of them. While Roy dodged out of the way, Shen Mi warped out of the flames way and up above the hall. She then waved her hands, conjuring a tornado that blew towards the band. The one with the trumpet blew down on the mighty brass and summoned forth a wind that destroyed the twister. Roy lunged at the sextet, dodging the fireballs that shot his way. He was ready to strike as soon as he was close. The pianist played with her keys, erecting a see through barrier that blocked his fist. The woman on the harp then strummed out a melody, which created a set of five lines called a staff that threw themselves towards Roy. He jumps out of the way of the staffs and up towards the air, though his flight did not last as one of the strings wrapped itself up around Roy’s leg and slammed him back down to the ground, breaking some of the chairs. Roy blasted the string off, severing it from his leg. The string then threw it’s clef at him. Roy caught the clef, spun around, the threw it back at the staff, breaking it apart. “Ha!”. The harpist then strummed away, summoning music notes that surrounded the boy. Shen Mi was flying around, dodging the flames coming from the violinist. She clasped her hands together in front of her mouth. The witch made a triangle with her hands as she took a deep breath. Blowing out of her hands, a ball of green fire blew out and soared towards the sextet. But once again, the pianist blocked the scorching shot with a clear barrier. Roy looked over to the band as he was fighting off living music notes. “Gotta get rid of that pianist.”. A quarter note swung itself at Roy, the boy catching it and throwing it at an f clef. An eighth note hung hung him up by his neck. While Roy was trying to get the note off, a beam note rushed in and started to pummel him. As the note was beating on Roy, he flipped in midair and made the eighth note hook the beam note by its string and slam both of them on the ground. Roy then crashed onto the notes destroying them while making the whole hall shake. The quake made the sextet tumble back, stopping for a brief moment. “Now!” Roy shouted. Shen Mi quickly flew towards the band, passing through each member until she reached the pianist in the back. She grabbed the musicians face and made her glow lime green. Letting go, breaking the witches grip, the pianist saw that her skin was hardening. Her fellow band mates jumped back away from the scene and could only watch as she was turning to stone. Her screams silenced once the petrifaction consumed her body. “Masha!” the drummer shouted. The violinist looked at both of their audience members and roared: “How...How dare you. Breaking a bands camaraderie symphony like this is the worst offense. Without each member contribution, the melody could only dream of what it was meant to be. For this injustice, both of you shall feel the wrath of our musical sting!”. “Oh shut up! You lost any kind of sympathy with me when you kidnapped my little brother. I couldn’t give two shits about you guys or your stupid ass music.”. Shen Mi looks over and sees the man with the pipe blow into his wood ward instrument. From there, she sees the chairs start to move and cluster together. The furniture start to form into hulking humanoid monsters with glowing blue eyes. “So you want to play that game, do you?” she asks as she snaps her finger. The ground starts to erupt, and out from the burst floor crawled out hulking rock monster with glowing green eyes. The monsters made of chairs charge at Shen mi’s rock monster, tackling some of them to the ground. The rock monster retaliated, smashing their foes off their comrades. Roy saw the two small armies battle it out from the other side of the hall. “Huh...”. Just then he heard the sound of the tuba playing. He looks over and sees a mighty wind blowing out from the tubist. The wind almost makes him fly off, but he grabs onto one of the loose floorboards to hang on. He fires a ray of darkness at the tuba player, but a music note jumps out of the way of the blast. The drummer bangs his loud drum, shaking the floor and making Roy lose his grip to be thrust into the winds. He slams into a wall, music notes pile on to his body. Roy shoves them out of the way, but struggles to get of the wall, as the drummers beat and the wind glued him down. He takes out of the eighth notes and starts to aim. Roy throws the note like a boomerang, picking up speed as it rode the winds. It whirls around the hall, and into the drummers back, killing him. “Harvy, no!” the harpist cry's out. With the tubist out of breath, Roy landed back on the ground. He saw the lady with the harpist summon a tall two hundred and fifty sixth note, all six of its sharp ends glistening in the light of the theater. She dashes forward, brandishing the tall note like a musical scythe and slashes at her opponent. Roy avoids the sharp ends of the notes long reach. With an opening in site, he dashes forward and tries to kick. The harpist jumps away and with a strum launches a barrage of whole notes. Roy dodged the notes and threw an energy ball at her. The harpist slices the ball in half in her pursuit. Shen Mi’s rock golems had crush the last of the pipers. “Sorry, but mine are better.” she boasts. With his army defeated, the flute player blew a melody, making the rest of the chairs in the hall gather in two spots. The chairs then formed into two giant arms, about as tall as the hall. They then hammer down in Shen Mi’s golems, shattering them to pieces. The giant arms then try to clasp down on the witch, but Shen Mi flies straight above and casts out shards of ice at the piper. The shards were melted away under the violinists hot flames. The lead then strummed his strings, creating a spiral of fire around the giant arms, setting them ablaze. The fiery fist swung at Shen Mi, the witch feeling the heat coming from the arms as she evaded. They then tear out the balconies from the side of the wall and chuck them at the witch. Shen Mi grabs them in midair with magic and tosses them back. The violinist destroys the oncoming wooden stands with powerful fire blasts. Flying back, she twirls her arms upward until gray smoke swirls in her hands. Shen Mi then throws the smoke upwards towards the ceiling, starting to grow each second. As the tubist took a deep breath, the harpist quickly ran behind him. Roy tried to chase after, but the tubist blew into his tuba greater then he ever has been, bellowing a great wind right in front of Roy, sending him flying. The winds quickly started to swirl around, creating a mighty tornado. Roy is thrust into the twister mercy, flailing about as he tries to regains his aerial balance. The harpist then strums a melody on her harp, summoning music notes that were cast into the winds. Burning wood from the flames gets sucked in along side them, making a flaming music note tornado. The purple boy regains his balance in the air just as the notes and fire twirls around him. A wayward piece of flaming wood hits him in the back of the head. A quarter note then smacks him in the stomach. Grabbing the note, he uses it as a bat to swing the wood and other notes away. It’s not long though before he’s smacked down on the ground by a barrage of notes. The gray smoke above them expanded to fit the whole ceiling, looking a lot like dark clouds. The clouds began to flash, booming thunder echoed through the chamber. A light drizzle began to pour down below, exhausting the flaming arms. While the duet were distracted by the inside downpour, Shen Mi launched another barrage of ice crystals that impaled themselves into the flutists body. As the flute player fell, the arms made of chairs collapsed, falling onto the violinist. Roy saw the lightning storm above him and acted. He jumped up into the air, several whole notes came flying at him. Evading the barrage, he grabs one out from the air. The boy tosses it high into the sky. A lone eight note lunges in and tries to swipe at his neck. Roy grabs it just before it reaches and holds the note like a bat. He looks outwards from the twister and sees the tubist and harpist among the flying notes and debris. The whole note in the air is struck with lightning and comes tumbling down. Roy readies to swing with the eight note in his hand. Once the note is in range, he swings, sending it through the twister and down the end of the tuba. The electrified note jams itself into the brass instrument, and electrocutes its player. The tubist goes hurdling back on to the harpist, electrocuting both of them in one swoop. The tornado dissipates, releasing Roy from its windy grip. Both him and Shen Mi, met in the middle of the hall, Shen mi having a smug smile on her face. “Okay, fine. I’ll admit it. You got some cool tricks. Thunderstorm was pretty left field to be honest.”. “I knew you’d come around.”. “Now come on. My lil’ bro is just up ahead.”. “Actually, I fear that this is where we depart. I go after my macguffin and you find you’re newfound little brother.”. “Fine by me.”. Roy starts to walk off, waving to Shen Mi as he says to her: “See ya on the outside.”. With that, Shen Mi disappears in a blaze of green flames. Roy walks into another dark room, seeing nothing but darkness, but knowing somebody was hiding in the shade. “So...” a woman’s voice rang out in the dark. A single spotlight shines upon a woman in punk attire. “You actually made it. Wicked.”. A spotlight shines on Roy as the woman turned towards her. “Gotta say, didn’t really think old Stephen was even around anymore. Not to mention he had not only one, but two sprouts. I’ll be damn.”. “You the boss?”. “Yep. When my old man kicked the bucket, I was given free reign of the whole Meladoche Mafia. My way of music is inspired by one of my favorite flaming guitarist growing up, who sadly only made one album before vanishing off the face of the earth.”. An axe guitar jumps from behind the woman, promptly catches it as it descends. The blades protruding off the head of the instrument shine under the spotlight. When caught, she twirls the guitar around before resting it onto her arm. “Just call me Suzie Q!” the boss announces. The entire room lights up, a treble clef painted on what was the giant stage both of them were standing on. The boss strums a loud riff on her guitar, making shadows burst from the instrument. The shadow formed into a tiger as it lunged at Roy. The sudden appearance of the tiger caught him off guard, leaving him to be pounced by the beast. The shadow tiger tackled Roy to the ground. The boy held the tiger back from his face as it tried biting down on him. Roy punched the feline off, breaking it to pieces. As he got up, Roy saw Suzie Q strumming her guitar, staring at him with a sinister grin. Roy charged straight for the boss, readying to attack. Just before he could approach, a shadow pike rose from the ground, nearly skewering him. Dozens of other spikes began to pop out from the ground towards him. Roy ascended to safety, the spikes unable to reach him from above. The guitarist shot out balls of shadow out towards him. Roy dodges the oncoming shadows with ease and fires back. The boss uses her guitar to whack the black energy back to its sender. Not expecting to knock his blast back, Roy blocks the returning energy. He realizes something was behind him and looks to see the shadows behind him forming into a gorilla that grabbed Roy’s leg as it dropped to the ground, dragging him down. The shadow ape crashes Roy down, and starts to held him down. The boy saw Suzie Q jumps up and brandish the axe end of her guitar. Just before she could cleave her opponents skull, Roy grabbed the shadow ape with his leg and used it as a shield. When the boss hit her own shadow minion, it burst to pieces. Roy used this moment to kick Suzie Q away. She lands on stage with a thud, her arms wrapped around her guitar. As Roy got up, he said: “Cute trick, but it looks like it ain’t enough.”. Approaching the guitarist, Roy reached out his hand, aiming for her head. Right when he was close, he saw her lightly strum her guitar. Just before Roy could react, a shadow pike pierced through Roy’s leg, making him stagger. Suzie Q quickly got up and whack Roy across the face with the head of her instrument. After Roy backed up, he saw his leg was bleeding. “Ha ha. D’you really think I’d go down that easy? I’m the fucking boss here! What’d you expect?”. As blood dripped out from his face, Roy used his other leg to pounce forward. “Oh no you don’t!” the guitarist said. She started to riff on her guitar, casting trails of shadow pikes towards her opponent. Roy flew up out of the range of the oncoming spikes. Suzie Q then cast a flock shadow hawk that dashed at the boy. They circled him, scratching at him one by one. Roy started to blast them down as they past. When one was left, it tried to scratch at him, but Roy grabbed the hawk from the air. He then noticed something was blocking the spotlights. He looked up and saw a bunch of shadows rain down, smacking back down to the stage. Watching as her opponent crashed back down to earth, Suzie Q laughed and bragged: “Don’t matter how much you fly. I’ll bring you back down to rock your world.”. She looked perplexed as she saw Roy get up, chewing on something. The guitarist was shocked when she saw him gobble down on of her eagles, swallowing it whole. She saw bits of black ooze cover Roy’s face where she hit Roy. Roy looked at his leg and saw a dark splotch cover his wound. The putty started merging with his leg, hardening and changing to Roy’s skin color. The ooze on his face did the same. “Mmm…Taste like a mix of blackberries and turkey. Is it thanksgiving already?”. “You actually ate my shadows? That is sick!”. “Oh shut up, like you’re any better.”. “Seems you’re starting to get the rhythm. Alright, time for the second act.”. Strumming her guitar, Suzie Q summoned a pack hyenas that dashed after the boy. “Ooh, second course.” he said as he took a stance. Off in another room, Shen Mi reappeared in a flare of green embers. In front of her was a glowing cube standing on a pedestal. “Too easy.” she boasted as she floats over to her prize. Trying to grab it, she was surprised that her hand passed right through the cube. The cube then vanished. A spotlight then shined down behind her. Looking over, she saw a man in a red flamingo dancing outfit in a dancing position. “Looking for something, little girl?” he says. In his hands was the glowing cube. Another spotlight shines down beside him to reveal another man in a blue dancing outfit complimenting the others colors. “You’ve done well to make it this far.”. “But I’m afraid that your invasion stops here.”. “If you want your prize...”. “...Then you will have to face… Both of them spun around one another generating a swirl of red and blue energy. Posing for the finish, both for them announced: “The flamingo duo.”. Shen Mi sighed and said: “Sure fine. I’ll play along.”. Both men dance their way towards the witch, their legs keeping with the rhythm. Shen Mi tries to blast them with a hot ball of green fire, but red dancer shoots out a red sound wave that disperses the flames. She then tries to cast out snakes through her arms towards the blue dancer, but he then vanishes in a stream of blue light, the snakes passing right through. “Where did-”. Just then, something hits her in the back of the head. She turns around and sees the dancer reappearing, waving at the girl in a smug manner. The witch tries to trap him with stone hands that come out of the ground, but the dancer vanishes before she could get the chance. “Hm. Wanna play it like that, do you?”. Shen Mi flies into the air and starts to focus. “A little mana tracking should be enough to sniff you out.”. Suddenly, a blast of sound knocks her out of her concentrations, along with hurting her ear drums. As she closes her ears to try and block out the noise, the dancer that made the noise said: “Did you forget about me already? How heartless.”. Upset, she snaps her fingers and makes vines sprout from the ground, tangling the flamingo dancer in ivy. “Now if I can focus, I’ll just-”. She then saw the vines tear off the dancers body. The blue dancer reappears, bragging: “You cannot stop The flamingo Duo like this. You’re heart and soul must act as one, like us.”. “Behold!” red dancer announced before clapping his hands, sending a sound wave towards the girl. She effortlessly dodges the blast, boasting: “What was that? You were barely able to hit me.”. The wave careens towards the roof, where it blasted the roof, making chunks of the ceiling fall on the witch. Just before she fell, the blue dancer kicks the girl into the wall. As she gets up, she hears the red dancer say: “If you cannot be in tune with your soul, you will never beat us.”. “You might as well forget the cube and shove off.”. Shen Mi gives out a frustrated sigh and says to the duo: “You want me to be one with my soul?”. Both of them saw a green flame surround the girl. The witch turns around to show them her green glowing eyes. “Well then lets get in-tune.” The witch floats up in the air enchanting a mystic spell as the green flames grow brighter. The red dancer sends out a wave of sound towards the girl, but Shen Mi warps out of the waves range. She reappears on the ground and grabs the air beside her, forcing the blue dancer to reappear. She throws the dancer towards his partner, making both of them slam to the ground. As both of them get up, they see the witch rises from the floor, the flames at their brightest. “And now, its time for the finale.” she says. The flames then expand, consuming the entire room, along with The Flamingo Duo. Roy dodges the swipes of a dark bear before lunging and biting a piece of its neck. With that, the bear breaks into pieces. “Lady, you better quit teasing me with all these appetizers. Just show me the main course already.”. “So, you wanna skip to the middle, huh? Then lets get this show started!”. As she starts to riff on her guitar, a shadowy blob begins to manifest, the shadow expand to an incredible size. Tentacles begin to sprout from the blobs sides, along with a swelling head. Roy back up to the edge of the stage as he witnessed the blob transform in a giant squid. Suzie Q jumps to the squids head, shredding on her guitar as she shouts: “Yeah! I call this Ocean Storm!”. The shadow squid roared, its ear piercing shriek echoes through the entire room. “Calamari? Shame I didn’t bring salt and a lemon.”. The shadow squid throws its tentacle down towards the boy. Roy dodges and sees another one heading his way. He jumps out of the way, with one more lunging at him. He grabs the tentacle and takes a huge bite out of the tendril. The squid flings Roy around to try and shake him off. It then slams its limb down on the ground, shaking the entire stage. “He he, guess you bite of more then you can chew. I ain’t just some rocker chick you can hustle, ya know. I’m motherfuckin Suzie Q!” When the dust settles, she sees Roy standing, biting down on the tentacle. He chomps the front part of the tentacle off, the squid squeals in pain as it reels back. Roy swallows the giant limb, sighing in delight after it trickles down his throat. “Not bad. Could use some basil though.”. The guitarist started fuming, screaming a the top of her lungs: “Quit eating my shadows!”. The squid attack, all of its appendages lunging at Roy. The boy jumps and dodges the oncoming feelers. As he evades, he uses his straightens his hand and casts a thin wave of black energy to slice a piece of tentacle off. He goes straight for the severed limb on the stage and takes a bite of it, dissipating as he eats. Another one comes his way sliding across the floor. Roy stops the tendril and tears it of the squid. After eating that, he sees the guitarist cast out birds like arrows straight towards him. Back to Shen Mi, she watches the fight through a magic portal of sorts, twirling the cube in the air via magic. Floating over the chard corpses of the Flamingo duo. “Mm. He’s doing quite well. Better then I thought actually.”. She giggles and boasts with: “I can’t wait to show my brother who I’ve found. Drake won’t ever be able to live it down.”. Roy stops another tentacle from dropping down on him, but instead of eating it, he start to circle around the squid. He binds the shadowy beast by his own limbs and spins him around. After the stop spinning, Suzie Q shakes of her dizziness and looks around the stage. “Where’d he go?”. She looks up and sees Roy dive bombing down towards her. She’s knocked off as he slams down on the squids squishy head, making burst out into inky cloud, blackening the entire stage. Roy sucks up the darkness around him, bringing the light back. “Ah...I love seafood. It always goes down my gullet nice and easy…although...”. He looks over to Suzie Q, who at this point was quivering. She sees Roy lunge towards her with breakneck speed. The guitarist tries to defend herself by swinging her axe, but Roy catches the weapon and pulls her in. He grabs her face tightly to keep her from getting away. “Stop, please! We’re sorry we took your brother! I promise we’ll leave Stephen alone!”. “That’s right. You will. You wanna know why?”. The boy makes the guitarist look Roy in his purple glowing eyes. “Because it’s time for dessert.” he said with a wicked smile. Suzie Q let out a frightened shriek, followed by a gasp for air. In a closet, Markus was tied up, struggling to break free of his binds in the darkness. The door opens, light shining over a dark figure, casting its shadow onto him. Once his eyes adjust, he sees the figure was actually his brother, giving a warm smile. He happily grunts as he tries to worm his way out of the rope, but ends up falling over. “Whoa, hang on, Markus.” Roy says as he rushes over to untie the kids binds. Once out, the boy hugged his big brother, babbling: “I’m so happy your here. There were these scary music guys who took me away and told me they were gonna kill my family.”. “Hey, hey, hey. It’s okay.”. Roy puts Markus in front of him and reassured: “There not gonna hurt ya anymore. I promise. So you don’t have to cry, okay?”. The little boy sniffles, wiping the tears off. “Now, come on.” Roy lifts Markus off the ground and perches him on his shoulders. “Lets get ya home.”. Both of them walked through the destroyed music hall, with Markus seeing the corpses of the sextet orchestra. “What’s with those weird guys.”. “Um...We fought them on the way. I’m...sure that when the come to, they’ll-”. “They’re dead, aren’t they?”. Roy snorts and replies with: “Yeah.”. After taking Markus back to his home, Roy bids farewell to him and his parents. As Roy walks out the door, he spots his client waiting for him, floating above the walkway. “So, did you enjoy your visit?”. “As a matter of fact, I did. Saw my dad again, found out he got remarried and had a kid, and got him to reconnect with my mom.”. He starts approach the witch and boldly questions: “But enough about me. What about you? Where did you come from?”. “Excuse me?”. “When we first got here, we went to a mall where my dad was just so happen to be having lunch. You hired me to kill the Meladoche Mafia, a crime syndicate that just so happening to be targeting him drove him away from my family. I manage to find him, his family, and free him from the Mafia grasp. It’s all nicely wrapped in a gift box...too nicely wrapped.”. Shen Mi grew a soft smile as Roy put the pieces together. “This ain’t a coincidence. You knew about all of this. About the Mafia. About my dad. And about me. It was suspicious enough that a 13 year old girl is capable of such arcane feats, but it cinches it when she knew about all of this. You’re not just some dumb teenager. So fess up. Where did you come?”. Shen Mi chuckles as she claps for the boys analogy. “Great work detective. I was hoping you catch on. You’re right about two things. I am exceptional. And I did know about you. I’ve been gathering info on you for months now, your history, your skills, and your loved one. And from what I’ve seen, you’d make the perfect candidate.”. “Candidate?”. “You see, Roy. I come from a very special organization of incredibly gifted youths. We’ve been eyeing you for quite some time.”. “So what? You trying to butter me up to join?”. “Not yet, I’m afraid. We’re still building and have yet to have a proper structure. You’ll see in time. And when that comes, you’ll be begging to join.”. Shen Mi, lightly cackles as she disappears in a blaze of green flames. Roy smiles as the girl vanishes. “Hm mm… Join? If you think a speech like that is gonna be enough, you’re gonna have to try a lot harder then-”. His smile drops like a brick when he begins to think. “Wait a second...”. When coming to a realization, a wave of fury crashes on his psyche, causing him to shout to the night sky: “That bitch didn’t pay me!”. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Markus belongs to me Shen Mi belongs to: @princesscallyie
