Finishing the dinner Dena looks at the time and it was only one hour passed, yet she felt that hour was like a whole day, Rain mother wasn't someone to get along with if you are no one, and she felt like no one today after seeing all of this!
Deep down she thinks it's all her father's fault, why he didn't take her in and let her live in a prestigious life, why Hades aren't that much rich, why, why, why… "I am tired, I will excuse myself" she said with a tired smile
Rain mother smiled at her "you probably had a very busy day, let's go shopping someday"
"Sure" Dena bow to her then to Edgar and when she looks at Rain he told her that he will drive her home, she gladly accepted and both took her car back, the road was a little bit silent till Rain asked
"Are you okay? Don't mind my mother even I don't get along with her"
Dena smiled looking at the window "I am not someone you can be proud of" she says with sadness "I thought I will be happy meeting your parents, but reality hits me hard tonight, I don't bring anything to the table expect my feelings" she waited Rain to tell her 'no' but he kept silently driving "nothing to say?"
Rain shake his head "Dena your feeling are something I am grateful for"
She smiled moving her hands touching his thigh "they are yours, don't be grateful"
Reaching Hades area, where that garage was she gets near him giving him a good night kiss on his cheek and went out from the car, Rain didn't stop the engine yet he saw her walking there, at that same moment he heard the loud noise of a wheel when a car came to the view and pointed a gun to Dena direction firing it.
"DENA!" he yells starting the car immediately and drives to shield her from behind. But he saw her fall on the ground screaming in pain, he gets down hearing a shower of gun fire was already starting from Hades and the red-circle side and whoever the other side that was now having more back up.
"It's the Hellhounds!"
He heard the men yelling but he was checking on Dena that was touching her shoulder in pain "damn it" Rain saw the blood coming out he took his jacket off fast and pressed on the injury "you will be okay"
Dena looks at him smiling in pain, she moves her hand slowly touching his face "I love you" she said afraid she won't find another time to say it loud.
"you are going to be okay" Rain says but the fire start crossing his car "damn it" he cursed taking his gun out with one hand, he look at the garage door, and wanted to take her in to be safer but those who were standing there got shot and falls "the fuck where is Hades men"
"Orthrus…took…them…" Dena tried to explain
"Kill everyone fast!"
Rain heard the orders coming from a familiar voice "Third" he says in anger, he wanted to face him so bad "can you press on it?" Dena nodded.
Taking his gun he did look at the scene seeing everything getting red, he looks at Third at the far wanting to get him with a clear shot, he pointed at him but the others shoot at his direction "fuck" Rain says getting back down and start to shoot those getting near them first but that when he looks at Dena and saw her losing more blood, he went back pressing at her injury since she obviously couldn't.
"Run" Dena said in her pain "don't die here…run! I don't.want.you to..ugh.. die because of me"
"No one is dying okay?" Rain was getting angry especially when his gun was almost getting empty shooting those who reaches the car sides.
The last bullet went out to reach its target, while seeing Dena start losing her conscious "Dena!"
"I.am.awa.ke.."
He saw her speaking hardly but then heard a loud noises of breaking mixed with a bus horn getting near them till it stopped shielding the car. Rain saw who gets down from that bus with a weird outfit running to them.
"Is she…" Yohan was the one arriving at that bus driving it, he checked Dena's shoulder ordering "Carry her inside I will move the bus to shield the way"
Seeing him running back to the bus, Rain carried Dena and waited the right moment to run inside that garage, getting inside of it he went to the room there he needed a closed area so she could be safer. Hearing the iron door noises, he went out of the room to see the garage doors getting closed by Iatros. "NO WAIT!" Rain didn't reach the doors at the right time "LEX OPEN THE GOD DAMN DOOR" he yells in anger while hitting that door but at that exact same time he heard the sound of bullets hitting the metal from outside continuously.
Rain did froze looking at the door…his heart beats fast, he felt suffocated, he felt scared "no…" he mumbled going back trying to open that huge door "no....no....please…don't..." he said with a low voice "die…"
Outside Yohan closed the door, wearing the mask he was hiding in the inside pocket of that cleaner outfit while feeling presence of many from behind him, he heard Rain screaming from inside and a massive bullets starts being fired behind his back he closes his eyes and when he open them they were….
Flaming red.
He turns to look at the faces confused of 'so close yet nothing hit him' he looks around seeing many men falls in their blood, he looks at those near him starting with them first…attacking them…he felt like everything was slow they were slow, those bullets were nothing for him like he was looking at a feather floating near him, the flows in everyone shot were clean, he could see dozens yet it felt only like a blink, the first the second the third, ten, fifteen more and more he lost count, he lost count of time, of space, of what he was doing all he feels now was the power inside of him rushing to be out to be shown to those who dares and defy him,
At a certain point…Hades and the red-circle men stopped fighting and kept looking…in fact for them they stopped interrupting because the Hellhounds heard Third orders to focus Iatros... they tried to but they miserably failed.
"NO ONE OF YOU CAN HIT A BULLET YOU IDIOTS" Third yells taking his gun and shoots Iatros but none of them hit him "what the hell!" he was little bit shocked he know he can't miss 8 out of 10, he doubt it, yet he looks down to change the gun magazine but that when he felt a gun pointed to his brain…he backs off seeing Iatros in front of him
"You should have figured it out by now third brother" Yohan says throwing the gun and hits him once and twice and more till Third falls on the ground in his own bloody face, taking a deep breath he looks at those who last standing, it wasn't more, but not less he already calculated everyone's move, but decide to not do it till he speaks "go back to your leader, tell him he hurt Hades daughter we hurt his son"
For him he was standing there looking at them backing off but for them they saw him standing in the middle of a human pile without even getting a single hit of the guns shower, they were scared, they knew they lost, they run away not daring to even go back to the Hellhound leader because all what they will meet there is death because his son has fall into the enemies hands.
Yohan looks at his unconscious brother he take a deep breath again and his eyes turned normal, he went down grabbing Third by his caller and start dragging him back to that garage, opening the door to find Rain still standing there, he looks at him but ignored him finishing dragging Third inside till he reaches the sofa and kept him near it.
He looks at Dena and walks to a medical-kit he was having there taking some pain killer needle and doing what he needs to do, feeling Rain presence behind him he spoke "she lost a lot of blood I will control the blood flow and reduce the bleeding, I can do it here but better if you take her to the hospital for a more sterilized place" little after he finished he turns looking at Rain who was still silently looking at him "you can take…" but that when Orthrus came in running
"Yohan, Rain what…" he looks at Third "oh my god!" then looks at Dena "Dena! is she okay?"
"She will be" Yohan answered "bring the car closer she shouldn't be moving" Orthrus nodded running outside to get the car near the garage, that when he turns looking at Rain "take her" But Rain did get closer grabbing his arm and was going to say something but Yohan didn't want to hear it, JiYun words are way enough for him today, and if Rain said something else he would think of disappearing from this world better! "Take her please" he said taking his hand off and walk away going to the sofa throwing himself on it.
Hearing the car honk, Rain clench his fist and walks to Dena carrying her in his arms and leaving that garage.
------// the octagon hospital
Yuki came running to the emergency area seeing Rain and Orthrus standing there "is she okay?"
Orthrus who wasn't smiling like usual shrugs but the doctor came out
"How is she?" Orthrus was the first to ask
"She is stable now, but still unconscious duo to the blood loss, lucky the bullet wasn't in a bad place so no need to worry"
The three did felt relief hearing that, seeing the doctor leaving, Yuki tried to make him feel better "she will wake up in the morning for sure" she then looks at the blood on Rain "are you hurt?" and Rain shake his head a no "what happened exactly?"
"The Hellhounds" Orthrus says "when I came it was already over" he looks at Rain "thank you"
Rain shakes his head "I did nothing" he frowns remembering how he got stuck in that garage "Lex locked the garage from outside once I got in with Dena"
Orthrus nodded understanding "it is something he would do"
Yuki saw how Rain was pissed "he sure was trying to protect you two" but his reaction make it worse because he was furious saying his next sentence...
"DO I LOOK LIKE I NEED PROTECTION?"
Yuki stayed silently looking at how he left in anger.
