" Boss, Taro, Kenji isn't picking up his phone,"
Kaito said, his voice heavy with worry. Taro snatched the phone from Kaito's hand and dialed Kenji again, frustration bubbling inside him. " Why isn't he answering?" Taro's anger flared as he paced to the window and back. On the third walk, then he paused, glancing out the window.
" Hey, Kaito, is that car yours?" Taro pointed at a sleek Pagani parked outside. Kaito squinted, recognition dawning on him. " Uh, I think I've seen that car before. Yeah, I remember now. It was parked behind your apartment when I picked you up."
Without another word, Taro dashed to the testing room where doctors were working on some project. Inside, four teenagers lay restrained on beds, their hands tied. Taro grabbed one of the doctors, his voice in anger and imperative. " Can't you work faster? We need those kid's blood for project 224. Be fast!"
Just then, the door burst open, and Executioner and Rina stood there, guns pointed at Taro and the doctors. Executioner became angry as he saw the mask wearing Taro.
" You...brat. You killed my father. Although at first I didn't love him that much and I even planned to kill him, but I didn't. I found out that he loves me. Then we had a brief happy life before you ruined everything."
Taro clapped sarcastically. " Bravo! Such a touching story. Care to tell it again, loser." He laughed, the sound cold and mocking.
Executioner squeezed his hand shut, taking a step forward, but Rina held him back, shaking her head. He took a deep breath, forcing a smile as he placed his sword at the left side of his neck. " You have a lot to say today, but I'll make sure you won't be talking after today."
Taro arrogance faded, sweat trickling down his face. " What...what are you talking about?"
Executioner bowed his head, then raised it with a wicked smile. " You'll find out soon enough."
Rina released her gun and spun skillfully, quickly firing the doctors touching the kids. Taro rushed to a wooden rack where swords hung and grabbed a sword. He returned to Executioner, holding a sword and placed it In front of him. Executioner signaled Rina to free the kids.
Rina moved quickly, but Kaito suddenly appeared, punching at Rina that landed awkwardly on her breast, sending her crashing into a nearby metal table. Kaito winced, knowing he had struck her in a painful spot. Rina, blood dripping from her mouth, glared at him, her anger visible. " How dare you touch my...breast! You'll regret that."
She drew her gun and fired, the bullet hitting Kaito's arm. Rina followed up with a kick, but Kaito caught her leg, spinning her around and landed a punch to her back.
Other scene:
Executioner and Taro clashed swords, their blades clanging together. Taro, a skilled swordsman, faced off against Executioner, a master of the blade. Taro lunged, aiming for Executioner's eyes, but he dodged, the blade slightly cut his cheek. In retaliation, Executioner stretched his sword at Taro's head, narrowly missing and instead cutting off his wig.
Executioner's eyes narrowed in surprise. " You wear wig?"
Taro straighten, fury igniting in his eyes. He raised his sword, channeling all his strength into a downward strike. Executioner blocked, but Taro's force shattered his sword. Taro plunged his sword into Executioner's shoulder, then pulled it out and stabbed again, this time piercing his chest. Executioner bent but remained standing, defiance in his eyes. Taro kicked him back to the ground.
Blood poured from Executioner's wounds a Taro raised the sword again, ready for strike. But Rina, regaining her composure, loaded her pistol and armed at Taro's hand, pulling the trigger. Pain shot through him as he dropped the sword, gritting his teeth against the torment.
Kaito, seeing an opening, pounced at Rina, stabbing her back with knife. Executioner screamed, " No!" as he crawled toward Rina, their hands reaching for each other.
Kaito laughed, kicking Rina hard, sending her hitting on a heavy metal. Blood splattered from her head and collapsed.Kaito walked slowly to Rina, and Executioner stretched out, desperate, grabbed a gun from the floor. " Hey!" He shouted, and Kaito turned just in time to see Executioner pulls the trigger. He shot him through the mask, piercing his eyes. Kaito fell silently.
Executioner's chest tightened, his heart hammering against his ribs. He walked towards Rina, his knees nearly buckling under him. "Rina," he whispered, his voice hoarse. He knelt beside her, gently cradling her head in his lap.
"Why is my heart beating so fast?" he muttered, his fingers tracing the lines of her face. "I...I think I've feelings for Rina. No, it can't be. I'm Raven. Raven don't have hearts."
He checked her pulse, hope flickering in his chest. She was still alive. The voice in his mind spoke, "If you want to save her, blow air into her mouth."
"No way," he scoffed, his chest aching. He glanced down at Rina's face, her lips parted slightly. He couldn't ignore the voice. He couldn't ignore her. He leaned down, his lips brushing against hers. He blew a stream of air into her mouth, the sensation both strange and exhilarating. Rina stirred, her hand reaching up to grasp his arm. She pulled him close, her lips meeting his in a long, lingering kiss.
Executioner pulled back, gasping for breath. Rina lay on the ground, her chest rising and falling with each breath.
Taro's stood up and grabbed his sword walking closely to them.
"Watch out," Rina whispered, her voice weak but filled with warning.
Before Executioner could react. A sword, sharp and cold, plunged into his back. He roared in pain, his hand instinctively reaching for the wound. Taro pulled the sword back, the metal glinting in the dim light. He raised it again, aiming for Executioner's head.
