AFW Noir: The fall of the savior.

(This RP is done in conjuction with SUMOFIGHTER, myself and Dynamo44)
(All my posts are done in the POV of the dark savior.)

The never ending snow carried on outside the building that we just fought in, like people going on their everyday business without a thought of the darkness that lurked under them. Just waiting to drain the life out of all of them.

That darkness was what made me who I am, a savior for the defenceless. Outside I could hear the police sirens, the wail was a like a scream in the pitch black darkness that resides the evil. They were always too late, too slow to help me like the heroes the public painted them. Don't let them fool you, they say they run the streets. But they don't, the evil does and it's my job to stop them.

That brought me here, to this den of crime and vice. At the top floor of said building lay all those involved in the epic fight that just happened. Beside me was the leech, his head smashed into a glass window during our conflict. He said he had a score to settle with me, but he was just another dark being for me to defeat. He was still breathing as far as I could tell, not that I really cared.

In the center lay Deathbird broken and injured, Deathbird was the one who created this whole drama, from what I heard in the fight the black cougra had fallen out the building. But I heard a loud "Clang." so a fire escape must have stopped her fall to her doom, a pity.

Not too far from me lay the other vigilante who came to my aid in this night, he was named the red knight. His face certainly looked red from all the blood that was covering it, like the devil had done his handiwork on him. Thankfully he was still alive, just badly beaten.

And near Deathbird was her. Linda, the girl with two sides to herself.
The bad one had betrayed me, got me here. But the good side cared for me, took the bullet for me.
Did I love her? Was there a choice? Both sides wanted me, but in radically different ways.

Her body lay bleeding, forming a small pool that filled the wooden floorboards, the smell of copper present. She was still alive, if it was any other woman I'd have said not for long. But she was something else, I crawled my battered and beaten body that was full of the wounds gathered in this night over to her.

My nose grazed her cheek, my lips brushed hers. "You aren't a damsel are you?" I muttered to her, the police were making there way in. I'd have to get both Linda and the red knight out of here, Leech's group and their cartel were finished. There was enough evidence here to shut them down for a long while. The sun was starting to rise, the morning would sweep the darkness out once again. But how did I get here you might ask?

Well to make any sense of this I need to go back a few hours to when it all started.....

It was a night like any other, a patrol above the crime ridden streets. This place needed me, a savior to protect the innocent. The media painted me as this dark hero, one who had divided public opinion on if he was needed or not.
But their opinion was irrelevant to me, my only duty was to ensure their safety regardless of how grateful they were.

Rain had poured over this town, the ominous sound of thunder loomed in the background. A warning of things to come for me in this long night, a dark sign for a dark savior. I braced myself internally for what was to come. For soon the shadows would rush me, a night to remember for all. And not in a fond manner either.

In an abandoned warehouse, there was a commotion of fighting and guns firing that just ended at least 30 seconds later. The smoke would clear as a group of dark figures gazed over their rivals. One had glowing red eyes as she would say, "Well done. Now it's time to put this to work."

A male henchman would ask, "You sure he'll be here?"

Then another would answer, "Of course, he's bound to. I mean, that's his style nowadays...or nights."

The group prepared the body and waited for Ryan to swoop in.

As I wandered the streets in search of crime I heard the sounds of battle briefly.
Their bullets were a howling cackle each time I heard one.

I lept from my roof, the night air flowing into my hair.
The warehouse was near, about as inviting as bullet to the head.
It was something related to crime, I could tell that much.
My money was on The Leech and his gang, but I hoped they were too busy gambling to walk away.

The thunder loomed closer, stay and wait and what not would've been the smart thing to do. Guess I wasn't that smart.
I landed on the roof and entered via a open window, silent like a ninja. But as it turned out it I was not that silent.
It was a trap coated in the darkness....

Then the Leech's back would be faced against Ryan as he said, "Welcome back. I take it you're going to try and stop me this time? Hmhm, how predictable of these vigilantes." He would put up his fists in a fighting stance and motioned for Ryan to come at him.

"So it was him." I thought as my vision spotted the Leech, his evil could be sensed a mile away. Like a poison that lurks in the trenches. A ghost that haunts someone.

Fists clenched and hidden teeth barred I dashed towards him. I subtly took out a new gadget that I made in my fight against evil. The blue egg, Leech's gas mask would reduce the use of my black eggs. The blue eggs were filled with small marbles. As I neared him I would fling the egg at his feet to trip him to the floor, no doubt taken by surprize by this new gadget, the marbles shiny and slippery in their purpose.

If that worked I would use my staff to vault over his body, the stick hitting his chest. If he avoided the marbles then I'd still go for the kick. But I hoped he would be too shocked by my new item.

However I couldn't help but shake off a feeling, what if this was intended. That I would meet him here, I thought "It's that person's pride, he most likely brought me here in the hopes of getting the "Honor of ending the savior."

Leech would too charge towards Ryan, but he was aware of what this guy was capable of. Once the marbles came, he would intend to slip before throwing three knives aimed at Ryan's body. Rolling to the side, Leech would get the kick and stumble back as he threw a smoke bomb to cover his tracks.

The knives came to me, the glimmering whiteness all too present in the darkness around us.
As I vaulted over the marbles I activated the staff's built in shield. Then I placed my body behind it to protect myself from the blades. The smoke bomb that he threw covered my eye. It's intent to hide the leech and his flight.

I wouldn't panic, I fired a grapple gun up to the ceiling and zipped up. Making sure my body was upside down, like spiderman if you will. The Leech was bolting, like a rat detected by a bloodthirsty cat.

While still up of the ceiling I fired my other grapple gun, there was a door that I knew the Leech was heading to.
With a pull I slammed the door shut in front of his very eyes. The reach of the savior was endless indeed, no matter where the darkness lurks the savior will uncover it.

I then lept off my upside down position by kicking at the ceiling, heading towards the leech to engage in battle.

Leech was on his way to the door, but Ryan beat him to it by grappling the knob and slamming it. That was his cue to take the body and rush in the center of the smoke. He had to try and use the make body for a punching bag intended for Ryan so the blood will be on his own hands instead.

The leech quickly dashed back into his own smoke, I was a tad surprized by this. "Did he suddenly think he was some kind of ninja?" I thought to myself.

I saw him carry something into the smoke with him, it could've been a weapon. To take me by surprise and blindside me.
Quickly acting I rolled into the smoke, suddenly I felt a shimmer behind me. It may have been one of the Leech's blades, with no hesitation I spun around and used my palm strike move. I thought I nailed the leech hard on the chest, a blow that would knock him on his ass.

I lept onto it and grabbed the head, suddenly I sensed a trap. The gas mask that the leech wore was missing!
Just then I noticed my right hand was covered in blood, no dobut the body in front of me was a dud.

Designed to fool me into attacking this so the leech could vanish. I felt like the coyote who just realised he was about to fall, only just past that to when he plummets to his doom. To me lady luck was a hooker, and I was out of money.
Police sirens could be heard outside, no doubt the leech and his crew bolted like the rats that they were.

Leech smirked as he left, knowing his little ploy had worked. The others escaped with him before the police arrived and couldn't wait to see the headlines of this vigilante killing off a rival gang member. He can be charged with murder for that.
