The Legendary F Rank

Chapter 54: Faceless Unit.

"Wow, they were faster than I was expecting. They did a good job of locating your house Zen." Haru said with a smirk. "How did they know to look for you here though?" Zen was confused. Haru didn't explain that part to him.

"Well, I left one of your business cards. I told you I was never going to give them out to anyone but you just had to keep forcing me to keep a few with me at all times." Haru sighed at Zen. He had told him to stop giving them to him but every time Haru would go out Zen would insist on advertising his business by leaving a few cards in random places.

"I don't even know what I should have expected of you." Zen was disappointed. He had been living with Haru for three years and was finally starting to understand his character. He was crafty. If anyone asked him to do something he would first turn them down at a moments notice but if you pestered him over and over he would finally accept to do it but he would do it in the worst possible way so you wouldn't ask him to do it again.

Like one of the times, Zen had asked him to do the laundry. He eventually said he would do it but then he decided to put a red shirt in with all of Zen's white shirts. It was little acts of defiance just so he could carry on being lazy. The only thing that Haru thought about was cultivation and living a normal life. Anything else he deemed as a distraction so he would find any way he could to get out of doing it.

"What? I thought you wanted me to hand them to people? Isn't this what you wanted?" Haru teased him. There was a thud that came from inside the house. Haru, Jake and Zen all rushed inside to see what was happening. Krista was sat down in the Kitchen with Saki and Luke was in the hallway causing a commotion.

"What are you doing? You can't just break down the door." He was outraged and was showing his outrage by shouting. Krista was trying to calm down Saki who was crying out of fear. The loud sounds must have startled her.

"Oh, Mom. Hold out your hand for me." Haru said as Jake and Zen ran into the hallway to see what was going on.

"Okay..." She was visibly confused but did so anyway. She reached out her left arm toward Haru. The same bracelet identical to the one jake was wearing was wrapped around her wrist. Haru channelled Qi into his fingertip and then shot a shadow blade toward the bracelet slicing it all in half. It dropped to the floor and didn't make a sound.

Now that he understood hat once the wires were cut only magic could activate the alarm he had nothing to worry about.

"But we were told that we would be arrested if we took these off. Do you want your mother to end up in a jail cell?" She asked still confused. "It will be fine. Don't worry." Haru reassured her and then walked out into the hallway where Zen, Jake and Luke had their hands above their heads.

Stood in the doorway were two men with guns aimed at them. The had a black tactical uniform on and were both wearing masks. Their masks wear black and made out of fabric. There wear no eye holes or mouth holes. It was to intimidate their enemies.

"Haru Kitigawa and Jake Ainsworth. Please put your hands above your heads and walk toward us slowly." One of the men said. His voice sounded slightly robotic like he was using a voice changer. The sounds of Saki's crying became louder as she heard the voice.

"Okay, Just don't shoot anything." Jake slowly started walking toward them. One of the men now switched his aim exclusively to Jake as he walked forward as slowly as he could.

"I have had enough of this shit. I warned you guys last time." Haru said quietly and then walked toward the armed men. "Hey stop. What are you doing? Put your hands up. You are walking too fast!" The other man yelled as they both switched their aim to Haru.

"Too late," Haru said as he placed his hands in the centre of the chests of both of the men. There was a moment of silence before a low pitch boom shook the house. A shock wave came from his hands and the two men flew backwards out of the house. One of them skidded across the floor and rolled before stopping in his tracks as his back hit the wall of the fountain in Zen's front yard.

The other man flew straight through the air before striking the iron fence at the other side of the yard. The force he flew was enough to bend the fence all the way to the ground. "Haru! What did you just do!?" Luke screamed.

Haru turned and looked at Luke. "Calm down." He said bluntly and then cut the bracelet from his wrist. Luke gulped at the bracelet hit the floor. "What happened to my son?" He muttered quietly. The look in Haru's eyes when he turned to face Luke was the look of a man who has killed countless amounts of people who stood before him.

He didn't mean to let that side of him slip out but he was losing his patience with these people. He had already warned them to leave Jake alone and if they really want to they can send their boss and they could have a discussion like adults. But it looked like they were out for revenge after suffering embarrassment before.

There were two more masked men in the yard. They looked over to the front door. The dust the first man had caused to rise from sliding across the grass was still in the air and they didn't have a clear sight to the door.

One of the men decided to move forward with his rifle pressed against his shoulder. He looked down the sights for any sight of movement. As he entered the dust cloud a hand reached forward towards the barrel of his gun. He pulled the trigger.

Haru had grabbed the barrel and then aimed up into the sky as a bullet shot out and ricocheted off the side of the house. The man then looked at Haru for a moment. Before taking a knee to his stomach. He gasped for air as he fell to his knees.

The last man heard his friend gasping for air. He became scared knowing he was the last of his team members still standing. He held his finger firmly against the trigger as movement cam from the smoke in front of him. He didn't waste any time and pulled the trigger. He fired five shots into the dust.

Haru picked up the man from the floor and held his body in front of him using him as a human shield and ran toward the remaining man. He screamed out in pain as a bullet hit his leg. Haru laughed. "Better you than me." Then with his other hand, he threw the gun at the head of the remaining man.

The gun's stock of the gun hit him in the nose. There was a crunch before he fell to the ground. He was knocked out instantly.

Luke locked Krista in the kitchen. Once she heard the first gunshot she began to panic and almost ran outside. He managed to hold her back enough to close the door. Jake, Zen and Luke all looked at each other as the only thing they could hear was groans of pain.

"What was that?" The whole thing was over within a minute. The dust started to settle. Luck was the first one to see. He was closest to the door and as soon as the dust vanished he saw his son stood above a man who was bleeding from his leg.

"Where is your boss?" Haru stomped down on the bullet hole in his leg. He then took off the mask the man was wearing. It was the same guy from the coffee shop who had shown his gun to Reina as a form of intimidation and then tried to hit Haru with his baton. There was a small stream of blood pouring from his mouth.

Jake chuckled. "This is familiar." He said with a grin. Luke looked at Jake with disgust. And then ran over to Haru. "What do you think you are doing!? He needs medical attention." Luke shouted as he approached.

Haru stomped on his leg again. "Just tell me and I won't have to go any further than this." He started breathing heavily. Then there was the sound of music as his phone rang out. Haru reached down and picked up the phone. The words "Boss" Were on the screen as the incoming call came through.

"If you said you had his phone number I wouldn't have had to push you for it," Haru told the man who was now lay on his stomach as Luke pressed down on another bullet hole that was in his back.

"Haru what do you think you are playing at? These are people. You can't just treat them like punching bags." Luke yelled. Haru shrugged and then picked up the phone.

"Markus!? Where are you? I told you to wait for the captain's orders! Why did you not reply to the radio coms? There is no reply from the Faceless unit. What have you done!?" It was the voice of the guy why had the tablet.

"I'm sorry. I don't think Markus can talk right now. How about you have a chat with me instead."
