Scar and my happy reunion was short lived as the thugs in the area started to come back to their senses,they quickly reacted drawing their little knives they started to charge towards scar with a murderous savage look on their faces that obviously spoke revenge for their fallen fat comrade that was used as a landing pad.

The thug in question could only whimper lightly and groan in pain as his entire face was hammered into the ground,blood seeping from his mouth and nose piece creating a small river that flowed in between the gaps of the paved stone road,the little shattered remains of his teeth were also everywhere colored black and yellow rotting with dozens of holes or so that were both green and stained white.

The area here was very quiet other then us it seemed as if it was deserted,but my senses were strong and I knew that even though the light from the different windows were out the curious eyes of the people weren't shut as they peeped through the gaps of their wooden windows with curiosity towards this scene,I preferred it that we would end this soon,we were already creating way too much attention to ourselves then I usually liked.

Scar and I also didn't stay,personally I wanted to quickly deal it myself and get out of here already,but just as I was about to move and beat up these thugs,scar suddenly raised her hand at me signaling for me to stop.

-I do it myself...

She growled,making a bit surprised by her sudden decision and also puzzled as to what she was trying to do,in either way her eyes that had been happy a second ago had suddenly turned a angry feral tone,her weapons were still strapped onto her body,but she didn't draw them rather,she looked at her charging opponents and only grinned,that grin was very sadistic and also belittling as if she didn't see these people as opponents at all and in fact that may even be the case.

In the end after looking around for a second I decided to not intervene in this fight by scar's wishes,on the other hand I did keep my attention and senses high so if scar would be pushed into a corner I would be ready to react and rescue her plus the thugs only passed me by,ignoring me completely as they understood that I wasn't a person to be messed with since their boss expected me,but scar on the other hand was someone they thought they could do whatever they liked which is why they attacked.

Deep down,I had a small doubt rising whether or not scar could deal with so many thugs by herself they weren't the most agile or strongest in fact scar had already taken out their strongest which was the fat thug she was standing on right now,looking at their expressions I could see that they seemed to be malnourished too with added hunger I wouldn't expect their stamina to be high either which also explains why most of them were so skinny not counting the fat one of course,but that still didn't really mean it was scar's win after all she was still one person against 13 armed thugs,looking at scar I was definitely sure that she wouldn't use lethal weapons not until she could deal with the turmoil inside her heart that was caused inside the forest.

And as I predicted,scar indeed didn't draw her knives no,instead the moment one of the thugs got close she immediately threw out a powerful kick.

(Pow!)

The hit was strong so strong that it even produced a loud shallow slapping sound as scar directly connected with her kick hitting the closest thugs stomach and also launching him away from her towards another two charging guys finally all three of which collided with each other and fell onto the ground like a bowling hitting a pair of bowling pins.

-Uhhh ?!

The thugs momentarily stopped in their tracks,the kick was powerful fast and ruthless the sheer strength of it could be seen by the distance the thug flew alone it made some of the thugs who were charging eagerly consider their next actions a bit more properly as neither of these people wanted to be on the receiving end of the next kick that would come out of scar,the person who suffered the kick especially knew of its effects as he only lay on the ground tears coming out of his eyes while coughing furiously with splatters of vomit mixing into his coughing.

-Hey ! You wanna be bandits ! What is it are you scared ? What happened to your courage earlier ? Must be it since scum like you who charge at a single woman shouldn't have that much courage or honor !

Scar sneered,taunting the momentarily frozen thugs as they all started to get angry and frustrated by scar's insults once again making them raise their little kitchen knives charging towards scar with their anger double the amount then it was before,scar herself wasn't fazed to the least nor did she look intimidated,she held her ground masterfully taking up a fighting stance as she narrowed her eyes towards her charging opponents looking at them with a calculative gaze.

And at this point,it wasn't worth describing what happened next,scar was like a mountain standing at her ground as if she was a impenetrable fortress the thugs were like waves after waves,but not matter how much they tried they never could catch her or push her away,she moved like a butterfly and stung like a bee one thug after another,she launched hit after hit with both fists and kicks creating a barrage of her hits that met their points precisely going through ribs and cheeks,through groins and templates combining all of these quirks with power and speed.

-Grahhhhhh !

It was as if the air momentarily shook as the last thug suffered scar's straight punch to the gut looking at his expression you could see his face cramping up in pain his air directly punched out of his lungs as he slowly started to close his eyes entering his world of dreams.

(Thud)

With a thuding sound the thug fall his knees and looking around he wasn't the only person who was in such a sorry state,just by turning your head you could see dozens of the thugs laying around all of which were bruised everywhere moaning in pain or already blacked out from the powerful hits they suffered even after their comrades were going down one after another in succession they still foolishly tried to take down scar hoping to beat her down...were they all just simply blinded by anger or did they think that just because she is a woman they could win against her ?

In either way they were fools and nothing else,if I continue thinking about them then their stupidity might rub off on me,with these silly thoughts I finally direct my gaze back towards scar...

-Huff....huff...

She was breathing roughly,she wasn't out of breath nor was she really tired,but I knew that it still took her a lot of energy and concentration to take out so many guys by herself after all she was also just a simple human it was already incredible enough that she managed to beat up 13 people with knives using only her bare hands which in fact were already very red with a few traces of blood stains covering her knuckles,fortunately other then her knuckles there wasn't anything else that was hurt,she had avoided the slashes of the thugs very skillfully predicting them way before they even got the chance to strike.

-You know,I actually didn't need your help I could have dealt with it myself

I said smiling at her with a amused look in my eyes,scar in turn only snorted for a second getting grumpy all of a sudden as she crossed her arms and bit her lips showing her attitude as her beautiful dark brown eyes stared into me.

-Yeah,you're welcome

Scar countered with a bit of sarcasm which was funny.I wanted to laugh really and smile,scar also seemed a bit amused as both of us started to walk up to each other from her eyes I could see the hidden fury she had right now even though she was happy to see me she was also very pissed that I ditched her like that without a explanation,I already felt very unwilling to come closer to her since I felt scared to get a earful,but just as I was thinking like this I noticed...

The fat thug that had fallen from the very beginning started to raise himself from the ground,his face looked utterly broken so hideous in fact that it made me want to look away,but at this very moment my eyes couldn't help,but stay at this thugs figure as I saw him brandish the knife from his waist and aim towards scar with it,the way he looked at scar was everything that I needed to know that he was furious and wanted revenge his hand was tightly holding onto the handle of his knife and what was worse scar didn't even notice what was going on she was entirely concentrated on e her face smiling like sunshines in the morning.

-DUCK !

I immediately shouted out looking over scar's head with a alarmed look in my eyes,at first scar didn't understand what was going on her face changing into shock at first until a second later it turned very serious as she followed my words and immediately ducked down onto the ground.

The fat thug at that point had already thrown his knife,the throw was powerful and fast as the knife traveled in a spinning motion directly towards me,I could see everything happening in a matter of milliseconds I wasn't panicked nor was I surprised only watching the knife flying towards me calculating its traveling speed while nimbly raising my hand.

(Puck !)

The knife went in hard it all just happened so fast,blood was coming out of my hand flowing down my wrist creating a line of crimson red I felt the distinctive feeling of pain rush through my hand,but I didn't say anything and only sucked it up instead enduring the prick,scar who was ducked down the whole time only now raised her head towards me properly,she was still a bit confused about the situation,but with only one glance she could immediately identify what just happened here.

-Dawn !?

Scar cried out instantly worried as she looked at me eyes wide watching the drops of blood color the paved road underneath me with my blood,scar instantly wanted to run up at me and see the damage that had been done,but because she was still very confused she hadn't quite realized that there was someone else she needed to worry.

-I WILL KILL YOU,YOU FUCKING BITCH

The fat thug roared his anger reaching its maximums as he raised both of his fat arms for a bear hug running towards scar from the back,scar in turn only froze on her spot as she only now realized that she was in danger she quickly tried to turn around and retaliate,but just as she turned around she realized that she was far too late the man was already way too close for her to react properly and make a strong enough hit as a last ditch effort she tried to jump away instead and dodge,but even then it was too late.

-Kyaaaaaa

Scar immediately lost her composure,even though scar was strong and resilient in the end she was also just a normal woman she had fears like any normal person and even though she had trained a very long time I doubt that she had much close contact with other males other then her father and maybe close friends her fears of being assaulted by a ugly fat male was something every girl shared and at this very moment it was about to become reality.

Scar braced herself shielding her chest area as she stood at her place like a scared little rabbit,my eyes were very serene jumping with electricity as I looked at the fat man,I didn't like him from the very beginning which made everything all so easier as I flicked my wrist with lighting speed and like so in the very next moment.

(Ping ! Slice ! Thud)

-Uhhh...wahhh ?

A splatter of blood started to fly into the air the blood splatter was followed by a sudden gasp which was also followed by a thuding noise as the fat man kneel'ed down onto his knees finally falling down creating a pool of blood that came out of his head,looking at him closely you could see his very own knife he threw lodged tightly into his left eye his last dying expression was that of pure shock and disbelieve before he died,the last reflection in his eyes being me throwing the knife back at him.

I sighed,shaking my bloody hand for a moment I looked back down again,scar was still sitting on her bottom,she was shivering very so slightly with her eyes closed shut,I could only smile seeing her like this she didn't even realize that the danger she was just about to experience was already gone in front of her.

Coming from behind I lightly walked up towards her the irritated feeling of my bloody hand was still there,but I ignored it entirely and just simply kneel'ed down next to scar moving my hands towards her arms as I slowly started to open them.

Scar froze the moment I touched her,she seemed anxious,but at the next moment she seemed to have realized whose touch it was she was feeling as she slowly opened her eyes to me finally looking at me and my golden eyes that shined upon her,she was confused,but also happy at the same time staring at me.

-You're welcome

I said smiling at her with a teasing smile of my own...

The night was still long and young.
