Killer Instinct

Chapter 9

*Ah. Shirohana"s home.*

Josh was sitting on the sofa of a guest room. He had been waiting for Shirohana to come home. Hearing the front doors opening, he started to exit the room to go and greet Shirohana. As he was exiting, he heard a voice. A voice he hated.

*It"s him?! But...the people I hired should have taken care of him... WHY IS HE HERE?!*

Josh was furious. He had invested quite a large sum of money to get rid of Karma so that he won"t ever get near Shirohana again. He was frustrated and confused about how Karma was here.

*This guy"s...dangerous! The only possible explanation is that he somehow beat the people I hired. Shirohana"s in trouble! I knew he was bad. Every guy Shirohana encountered turned out to be a violent maniac. I have to protect her!*

Then, he heard footsteps coming up the stairs. Josh locked the door and put his ear on the wall. He heard the head butler shout and a "thump" sound was heard after. Then, the door of the adjacent room opened.

*That must be that f.u.c.ker that"s entering the guest room next door...*

Josh pulled out his phone and dialed the organization where he hired the men in black suits.

"Yes...Yes. You better send someone strong. I"m not giving you any more chances after this! I spent too much money and got weaklings! This time, it better be someone who can do the job! You got it?!" Josh said angrily, then hung up the phone.

He slowly opened his door. After checking that the coast was clear, he sneaked into the guest room where Karma was staying.

*Perfect...He"s asleep. Now I just have to give them the signal and we"re all set. Karma...I won"t let you hurt Shirohana!*

He tapped a b.u.t.ton on his phone. This was to send the organization his location to ensure that the job will go smoothly. After a few minutes, the door slowly opened and 5 men in black suits stepped in.

"Are you our client, Sudan Josh?" a man asked. He seemed to be the squad leader.

"Yes, that"s me," Josh replied. "There"s your a.s.signment." He pointed at Karma. The men walked over to Karma.

"Can"t believe this weak-looking motherf.u.c.ker took out our men," the leader said.

"Huh...?" Karma opened his eyes to the sound. He was still a bit drowsy from the nap. It took a while for him to register what was happening.

"W-Who are you guys?" He asked, panicked. He sat up.

"Sorry, but you are gonna get kidnapped and beat up," the leader replied. "Get him, boys!"

The other 4 men swiftly restrained Karma and one put a cloth over his mouth before he could yell for help.

"This is what you get for trying to trick Shirohana, " Josh said. "You"re dangerous, and you will be rid of before you can harm Shirohana."

Those words echoed through Karma"s mind, which made him remember all the times where he fought and Shirohana was involved.


*He"s right...With my condition, I could easily hurt Shirohana...It"s probably best to just face my fate.*

-Not if I can help it-

*NO! STOP!*

-Hehe...You tryin" to order me around? Since when were you the one in control? Eh?!-

And with that...another round breaks loose.

"Hehe..." Karma laughed in a m.u.f.fled voice.

"Huh?" What are you laughing at, b.i.t.c.h?" one of the men said. Then, the man holding Karma was knocked into a wall. The impact made a vase fall.

-CRASH-

"What the f.u.c.k are you doing?!" the leader shouted, throwing a punch at Karma. Karma caught his fist.

"Isn"t it obvious? I"m trying to kill you," Karma said, smirking. Then, Karma ducked and punched the leader in the stomach.

The leader, being well versed in martial arts, withstood the attack. But Karma still made him kneel.

"Oh? You are pretty good. Most people just flop to the ground," Karma said, impressed.

"I ain"t going down from your weak punches," the leader said, standing up. He got into a fighting stance.

"Strong words, b.i.t.c.h. But can you back it up?" Karma said, charging at the leader. The leader charged toward Karma. The two wrestled, both not budging a bit. Then. out of nowhere, a chair slams right onto Karma"s head. It was one of the other men, who had picked up a chair and slowly approached Karma while he was talking. Blood dripped from his head.

Instead of being in pain, Karma smiled.

"Yes! Keep it coming! I want to feel more of a thrill!" Karma said, instantly punching the guy who smacked a chair on his head. He fell head first into a wall making a small crack in it.

"Why you..!" Another one of the men said as he charged at Karma. Karma dodged him but was attacked by the leader again. The leader kicks him in the side and he fell back. Karma quickly gets up to dodge a barrage of attacks by the subordinates. As Karma readies another attack, a familiar voice was heard.

"What"s going on here?"

It was Shirohana, followed by her mom and the head butler, Frank.

"Looks like the punk brought more problems. This time to us," Frank said, looking at Karma.

"It"s not his fault!" Shirohana said, determined. Then she saw Josh, and she grew angry.

"Josh! What do you think you"re doing?!" Shirohana said angrily, walking toward Josh.

"S-Shirohana! Uh...I can explain," Josh said. "It"s uh... uh..."

Shirohana stared at him with great intensity. Fearful of Shirohana"s expression, Josh told her his plans.

"I hired these guys to get rid of Karma," Josh admitted. "But well within reason! Shirohana, he"s dangerous. He somehow defeated those men in black I hired at the warehouse. He might hurt you too."

"So you have done this not only once, but now..twice?" Shirohana said. "Let go of the past already! Why can"t you just move on? I know you want to protect me, but I can take care of myself. So please...just call this off."

Josh was about to comply when the squad leader interrupted.

"I"m sorry, but all jobs have a "must complete" requirement. He cannot back out."

"What do you mean?!" Shirohana said, angrily.

"I mean exactly that. This job cannot be retracted. So if you would be so kind as to stay away, I need to finish what I have started," the leader said, walking over toward Karma. Shirohana ran to Karma and held her hand out.

"I won"t let you do this," Shirohana said firmly.

"I don"t think you have any power for you to say that. Now move," the leader said, reaching for Shirohana in order to push her away.

"M"l" Frank began, walking toward the leader when Josh blurted out.

"Don"t you dare touch her!"

He ran toward the leader to stop him but was restrained by the other members.

"I would much prefer you as the client to not interfere," the leader said.

"Josh!" Shirohana shouted."

"Now move woman!" the leader said plunging a fist right at her. Shirohana closed her eyes, waiting for the impact. Then, she opened her eyes and saw that Karma had stepped in and blocked the leader"s punch.

"This is between him and me," Karma said to Shirohana. "So stay out of this!"

Shirohana, shocked from what just occurred, fell to the ground.

"Now, come at me. Give me some excitement!" Karma said, putting his fists up.

"Don"t get c.o.c.ky just cause you were able to strike me and block my attack!" the leader replied, getting into a fighting stance.

The two glared each other down. Then, the fight began.
