"Excuse me, but have you seen this boy?" The tall handsome brunette asked the bartender at Club Scion. Clad all in black leather and wearing calf high boots, the brunette put a few credits down in front of the nicely built man getting ready for the night's activities.
The bartender took the hologram disk from the hazel-eyed stranger to take a closer look of the picture. "Hmmm....cute boy. He looks familiar, but can't say that I've seen him around. He looks too proper to hang around this joint." The hologram showed a boy with midnight black hair which almost looked blue in the light and obsidian eyes. He wore a nicely pressed white dress shirt and striped blue and red sweater.
"This was taken when he was about 9, but this is what he should look like now." The brunette pressed a few buttons which aged the boy 10 years. The boy's features slowly became more defined and chiseled. He no longer had the baby cheeks and the look of innocence, but developed into a young man who was both cute and handsome at the same. A deadly combination which would draw the attention of any woman or man.
"Damn, he's fine! But sorry man. Can't say that I've seen him even though I wish I did." replied the bartender.
"How about this young man?" The green-eyed stranger pressed a bottom on the hologram to show another equally handsome man who looked one or two years older, but with long brown hair tied back at the nap.
"Well, this one looks a lot like Guy. He and his gang, Bison won't be here until later tonight maybe." replied the bartender
"Thanks for your time." The brunette gave the bartender some more credits and turned to leave.
"Hey wait! What's your name sexy? Should I tell Guy you're looking for him?"
"Name's Damien. Nah, I'll be back later. Thanks again." With a wink to the bartender, Damien left the bar. Outside, he pressed a few buttons on his transmitter to contact his boss.
"Yes mistress, I might have found Guy and possibly your brother. I'll be back in touch once I've met with Guy tonight."
***
Later that night, Damien strolled into the club as if he owned the joint. Everyone turned their heads to watch the hot newcomer walk straight towards Guy's table. Once he sat down, the crowd turned their attention back to what they were doing, but kept their ears open for any gossip.
Guy didn't know what to think of the stranger except that he was really hot looking in his skin tight black outfit. Reminding him of another dark haired beauty.
"And who may I ask are you stranger?"
"My name is Damien and I've been looking for you and this boy." Damien pulled out the hologram picture of the black haired youth from earlier.
"Hey, that's Riki!" replied Noris.
"Why are you looking for me and Riki? We don't know you." asked Guy.
"Well, I'm actually looking for both of you for my mistress. You probably remember her as Elena."
"You mean, Riki's older sister? How can that be? We saw her die in the fire." Guy was totally shocked. Riki's sister was supposed to have died in the flames when they were just kids.
It was a time before Riki and he became the mongrels of Ceres. He didn't expect her to be alive and looking for him no less. Elena wasn't someone you would want chasing you. She was dangerous, especially after she lost everything the night of the fire. He saw her go on a rampage one time when she lost in a sword fight against one of the top opponents in Midas.
Flashback
Riki was from a well off family living with his father and older sister in Midas. Riki’s father was a scientist and unbeknownst to Riki an underground drug lord. He did not like the long brown haired delinquent hanging with his son, but Riki found Guy fun and different from his boring life. They met after one of Riki’s concerts while he was waiting for his father to pick him up. Riki was alone in the alley behind the concert hall when two men approached him. At ten years old, Riki was really cute and he was getting more attention as he became older. Two thugs saw the cute boy waiting by himself and thought to kidnap him to make him into a sex slave for someone, but Guy stepped in and rescued Riki before he was taken away. His father came shortly after and allowed the friendship, but did not want Guy to get too close to his only son because he knew Guy was from a gang.
Guy had snuck into the dojo to visit Riki after his concert and they were hanging out in his room when they heard a commotion in the courtyard. Elena came storming home after the championship fight and went straight to the practice room. He heard that her opponent had cheated and beat her. She called out the rest of the students to fight her and was beating the shit out of all them. Afraid for his life, one of the students grabbed a real sword that had fallen from the walls to charge at her, but she easily dodged it and took the sword from his hands. Angry at the display of defiance, she turned around to slice her attacker in half. Riki dashed out of the room when he saw what was going to happen and pushed the boy out of the way. Elena regained her senses when she saw her brother and withdrew her sword just in time to graze Riki's left arm. Elena ran to her brother’s side and apologized for her actions.
Elena loved Riki dearly and he was the only person other than her father who had the power to calm his older sister. He was also the only one stupid enough to risk his life for another which was the reason why everyone loved Riki. Riki was not only cute and a gifted musician, but also loyal and brave. Riki got into trouble whenever he was with Guy. If people thought Riki was wild and untamable, then they would have thought Elena was twice so. She was five years older than Riki and a great swordsman. Unlike Riki, she knew about her father’s dealings. She was raised to take over the dojo for her father and his underground drug business. Both were very beautiful with black hair matching their father, but while Riki had obsidian eyes sharing in his mother's features, Elena had deep blue eyes taken after her mother. Whereas Riki was carefree and clever, his sister was calculating and dangerous.
When it was all over, Elena was regretful of her actions and punished with detention in the "Hole" for three days by her father. It was on the third day of her detention when everything went to hell.
A rival drug lord attacked the dojo that night. By the time Guy heard about the attack and got to Riki’s, the house was on fire. Blood stained the walls and body parts still twitching with life were everywhere. He ran into every room until he found Riki kneeling beside his father’s dead corpse while Elena fought off two assailants to defend Riki. Elena saw Guy and yelled at him to take Riki away. He grabbed Riki and flew out the door. When he turned around to see if Elena was following, he saw her being stabbed in the back. Riki saw his sister going down and screamed, “Elena!”
“Run Riki, I’ll hold them here. Go with Guy and don’t look back until you’re safe. I’ll find you. I promise.”
Elena’s wound looked serious, but her pleading eyes told Guy to take Riki away. He pulled Riki and they ran. They never returned for fear of the rival gang leader and Riki was taken into Guy’s gang.
End Flashback
Guy’s memory of the bloodbath brought a shiver down his back.
"Elena survived. She has become quite successful and has been looking for her long lost brother. So where is Riki? My mistress has been looking for him for a very long time." Eon took a swig of whatever alcohol was in Guy's hands and then looked intently at Guy to hear his response.
"I'm not sure. I haven't seen him in over a year now."
"So you're telling me you haven't searched for your old pairing partner this whole time?" Damien asked.
"I've asked around myself, but it's like he's disappeared from the planet." Guy's hands clenched into a fist as he spoke.
"Rumor has it that Riki's made it big and is shacking up with a Blondie." Sid added jokingly.
Damien's left eyebrow arched at that comment. "A Blondie you say. I heard those guys don't take mongrels. "
"Well, Riki was the hottest mongrel in these parks so I wouldn't be surprised if some Blondie saw him and wanted him as his pet." Sid continued on with his belief, not knowing at the time how true his story was to the reality.
"Stop making up stories Sid." Guy interrupted. "We don't know what's happened to Riki, but I doubt he's with a Blondie of his own free will."
"Hmmm...I guess I'm back to where I started, but I'll check out your story and see if it's true." Damien got up and was about to leave when Guy grabbed his arm. "Will you let me know if you find him?" asked Guy quietly. "Only if you let me know if you find him first." replied Damien with a smile. Damien gave Guy his calling card which brought a grim expression on Guy's face. On the card was Damien's name with the picture of a Red Dragon printed right below. Guy recognized the Red Dragon as the House of Assassins symbol. Guy didn't want to ask Damien as he was afraid of his answer, but he had to know. "Is Elena the head of the House of Assassins now?"
"Ahh, you're smart fellow aren't you. Not many people know who she is or was and live to tell about, but since you were Riki's pairing partner and took care of him all these years I guess I'll spare your life for now. Consider yourself lucky." Damien patted Guy's cheek and closed his mouth which had dropped in shock.
“Okay, gotta go now. See ya guys.” Damien turned and left the gawking man in the club.
