“You bitch!” The teenage boy shouted. Blood was dripping from his hand. The slashes weren’t too deep, but seeing his own hand in that state, he could feel the pain quite a bit. “You damn whore, how dare you use weapons like that?!”

Honestly, Marie had dreaded the day when she would have to use her knives on someone. Still, everyday she had woken up early and headed to school to join the training with Kai, Innu and Austin, without Gary knowing anything about it. Not only that, but without the others knowing as well, and any spare time she had after she would also practice.

It was undeniably that most boys would just be physically stronger than her, hence why Kai had procured weapons to make up for the difference. Marie had ingrained everything she had learned during the blonde teenager’s lessons. One of the most important ones, being that she had to prevent the other person from grabbing her.

The delinquent was pissed off and decided to go in again, trying to get his revenge, but Marie swiftly avoided the punch, while slashing upward with one of the knives, adding another big injury across his forearm.

She was nimble and flexible, whereas the boy was just someone who relied on raw power. Having been hit twice, the boy was seriously getting angry.

‘Where the hell are the others?! How have they still not dealt with those guys yet?’ The guy wondered, as he turned around the alleyway to see where his reinforcements were. He then spotted a plank of wood with a nail on it. It looked like it was part of some broken chair.

Picking it up off the ground, the boy smirked again.

“Blame yourself for what’s gonna happen next, you bitch!”

Seeing the boy pick up a weapon of his own, Marie recalled what Kai had told her to do when faced with such a situation. A wooden plank or a stick would give the other person the advantage through extra range. However, an inexperienced person tended to overcommit with each hit leaving themselves quite open.

What she needed to do was to capitalise on those opportunities. Without any sort of technique the delinquent swung wide swings with strong conviction. Marie felt that if she ended up getting hit by the makeshift weapon, she wouldn’t be getting back up.

This was her first fight, and it was beyond terrifying.

After avoiding the first couple of swings, the high school girl felt something hit her back, something solid. The next time the delinquent attacked, Marie ducked under, making his plank connect with the wall. It was the break she needed and rushing in, she slashed twice along his chest, creating an x mark through his clothes.

The man screamed as the knife shredded through his clothes and reached his skin, and honestly it was completely different to how Marie imagined. With these sharp knives, cutting through skin was far easier than she thought, and the feeling was something that was causing her to have goosebumps.

The boy's hands were in pain from hitting the wall with the plank, his chest, and arm were bleeding, and it was all because of the girl behind him, but soon he heard footsteps, and they were followed by claps.

“You’ve done a great job, Marie.” The male voice congratulated her.

The delinquent boy had expected to see his friends, but instead he saw four foreign boys standing there. All of them were dressed in black and gold clothing, yet there was one of them with a wolf mask.

“Now, we already asked your friends ‘kindly’ about the Pincers’ base location and their leader, but unfortunately none of them seemed to know the answer. Then again, most of them were unable to answer due to getting knocked out by us. I'm just glad our friend here didn’t do the same.”

The truth was, when following Marie down the alleyway, Gary had been blocked off by a large guy. It seemed like the delinquents weren’t as stupid as they had thought. He must have deliberately gone through this alleyway, to shake off any would be pursuers.

It wasn’t just one person that blocked their way either, as others had seemingly been hiding nearby. Unfortunately for them, the Howlers weren’t as weak as the delinquents they were used to dealing with. Against all four boys they never stood a chance.

As soon as they took care of them, Gary wanted to go help Marie. However, Kai stopped him once again, telling him to let her handle it herself. Honestly, when Kai saw Marie fighting like that, he was wondering how it was possible for her to be this good. It had only been a few days, so she had to be a natural at it…

Still, Gary noticed that the blonde teenager’s heart rate increased when he saw the delinquent grab the plank and not holding back in strength. He wasn’t the only one, though. Gary couldn’t take it any longer and placed his mask on his face while heading forward.

The boy still had the wooden plank in his hand and seeing the group come towards him, he panicked and wasn’t quite sure what to do. Slowly he backed away.

“Ahhh!” The boy shouted, charging forward but not towards Gary and the others, instead it was towards Marie. She had let her guard down now since the boys had shown themselves, and because of this he had left the delinquent an opening.

The boy intended to take the girl hostage, but just a few steps in, a hand had gripped round his throat. In mere seconds, Gary was already there and squeezing his throat tightly.

“What do you think you're doing? You bastard could have killed her!” Gary shouted, as he slammed the boy up against the wall, still holding him with one hand.

“Let's see how you like it when someone tries to kill you!” Gary shouted as he tightened his grip, holding the delinquent’s body up against the wall and slowly lifting him off his feet and into the air. The boy's face was turning red, his eyes looked like they were going to pop.

“Stop!!!” Marie shouted, as she held onto his arm.

“Let him go! We need him alive to find the others!” Kai shouted as well.

Snapping out of his rage, the green haired teenager let go and allowed him to fall to the ground. The boy started coughing and gasped for air, he had already seen his life flash before him.

Kai turned his attention to the boy and grabbed him by the back of his hair, forcing him to look up.

“If you don’t want my friend over here to finish what he started, you better get talking. Tell us, where’s the Pincers’ main base? Where do you take the girls after introducing them? Who’s their boss!”

The boy was still afraid for his life, so he didn’t put up any struggle. “Burnham food street! I bring them to a place called ‘the Kraken’. I’ve never seen the boss, only his right-hand man. They’re definitely in that place, though!”

“Let's go.” Gary ordered, already walking off and heading towards Burnham food street.
