First Meeting - Tet & Mura
Damn...it simply isn't enough...
Tetsuia eyed the two bodyguards with contempt. A broken sword, emptied shell casings riddled the floor around him. Him obviously wounded in the legs and chest...and the other two...not a scratch. He held his bleeding right arm still with his left, the obvious sword gash breaking through his soft armor.
"Did you really think that you would be able to kill me? A man that is part of those who bring this city together", said the politician. Sitting on his granite throne, lazily sprawled horizontally on the armrests, the old brunette calmly peeled an apple with a simple steel meat knife. The man chuckled, eyeing what was left of his would-be assassin.
He laughed...he laughed at me...
Fire returned to Tetsuia's eyes as he moved again for one last demanding effort. His left hand reaching for the shotgun in his holster...only to have been in vain. He had seen the bullet enter the chamber of his weapon...igniting the gunpowder within. The impact of the explosion hadn't reached his mental faculties yet..though he knew that he wouldn't stand up again...nothing left to give...he was likely going to die here.. to wa He lied slumped on the wall...his sight was failing him...simply too much blood loss.
"He bores me now...kill him.", the man said lazily. Both guards raised their pistols and pulled the trigger. He closed his eyes in final exhaustion...the clang of steel deflecting steel echoing in his head.
The last thing he saw was a black-cloaked figure with the symbol of the manufacturers of Leonix's shotguns, moving in to take off the head of one of the guards...
