Scenario 27. Closure
After the excruciating training session Balthazar had in store for the late night munchers, that's what he called them at least. Dark spent most of the day to recover and prepare for the night. As he spent time with Aphrodite, he made his way to the Slums meeting up with Snake and the rest of the Guardians, there they stood outside the old movie theater waiting for his arrival. As he lands he is greeted with fist bumps and pats on the shoulders. He is giving a few sheets of paper, they include a layout of building, a man's picture, and a contract for the death of him and his family.
Dark spends a few minutes to memorize the layout, and incinerates the documents in his hand. He tells them that he needs to do this himself, and if he doesn't return in a couple of hours they can expect the worst and do what they wish afterwards. After expressing his gratitude for the info they manage to come up with he takes off deep into the Slums, flashbacks of the day he killed the men that murdered his mother and their bodies engulfed in flames from Dark's attack. He hadn't thought about it until Aphrodite peeked into his mind awhile back, and after he witnessed that cloaked person killing the man outside the shopping district. Since he believed that he closed the chapter in his book of his own killers, only to realize that they were just hired guns, and that the person responsible for the death of his mother and possibly the rest of his family is still out there, having other men kill for him, while he sits back and relax.

He the building comes to sight as he's amazed at the structure. The place looks like a fortress, odd but it's fine nothing he can't handle. The security seems pretty tight, but it's not like he's planning on sneaking around. With that in mind, he picks up the pace, flames emitting from both hands he darts toward the front gate, unleashes a fireball which explodes on contact taking down anything in it's past, sirens blaring, men swearing and shouting at one another trying to figure out what's going on. As they get in position, Dark already made his way through the main corridor of the building taking out anyone that gets in his way, as he advances into the next room he quickly ducks under a row of crates as bullets fly pass him. He creates a few small orbs of dark magic with flames inside, and lobs them overhead, in a few seconds they go off creating another explosion giving him cover time as he advances, pushing men with his telekinesis, and piercing others with his dark magic. He leaves one alive and asks for his boss, the man spits blood into his face, Dark is about to kill him, but stops as he hears another door slam open and a group of men armed to the teeth open fire. He uses the corpses as a shield as he slowly advances and lets out a stream of fire, incinerating the thugs, as he makes it to the door they came through, as he runs down a narrow hallway, he can hear more men running towards him, the area goes dark all of a sudden, and notices streams of red lights slowly approaching him. He cloaks himself in the dark magic and hovers towards the ceiling, the laser pointers scatter around and he can hear them ask each other where did he go, but only to find their voices drowned in their own blood as Dark stabs them in the neck, all at once with the use of his dark magic once more.
His heart pounding as he seems to be drawing near, he makes his way up a flight of stairs, ducking, covering and using men as a human shield to avoid the bullets coming at him. He fights his way to 4th floor, where he's greeted by the latest Anti-Wanderer technology, as the machines lock in on him, he runs back to the stairway and takes cover as he closes the door with his telekinesis and creates a barrier as the door gets torn down from the rounds coming from each machine. Dark waits out the barrage of bullets, before darting towards one, but to only get intercepted mid flight by a fighter model, as it pins him down to the floor. He tries to use his telekinesis but to no avail, tries his dark magic, it seems to be working but the machine is hardly budging. With the memories flashing in his head again, and the screams from his mother, his rage builds up, and flames surround his entire body, and turn black. He can hear the sound of the machine's gun beginning another round, but they're too slow as the flames intensify and the machine that was holding him down gets thrown off him, and melted remains of it come crashing down to the ground.
The bullets start up again but Dark soars by, his leg getting pegged, a mere flesh wound, but he extends both arms, and the head of each machine pops off, and the remainder slowly crashes to the ground. The fire still spreading around him, he blasts the doors open to find a man cowering in the corner, begging him to not kill him, offering him money, cars, jewelry. The begging gets to the point that's he sobbing, Dark extinguishes the flames and the man is even more terrified as he looks into his face, and can't believe he's still alive, as Dark slowly approaches him the man's sobbing begins to muffle knowing the end is near. Dark makes it quick, a stab in his heart, he lets him linger from the dark blade he formed, letting out a sigh. He looks around the office, the finest furniture, art, carpet, drapes that money can buy. It makes him sick to his stomach, he can hear footsteps approaches. He has the man hung in front of the windows as the group of men make it to the room, as they look at their former boss's hanging body, with his back facing towards them, it slowly starts to turn to reveal a glow coming inside his body, as they get closer they realize what it is and they are too late to escape as the room is engulfed in flames. Dark watches as the explosion can be heard, and the screams of agony coming from the men, eventually die out. Tears pour down his face, as he turns away from the building, relieved that it's finally over, as he flies into the night sky he's greeted by the rest of the Guardians and Snake, who looks at him with a smirk and says.
"Times up."
