CHAPTER 7

Nyx and Leo were together sitting at the bench near the store. Nyx was in deep thoughts regarding his conflicting feelings, and so Leo being his friend was saying something to at least help Nyx out. After Nyx contemplated Leo's words for so long, he finally came into his own conclusion.
“You still haven't decided about what to do yet? Leo asked.
“You know, after thinking about it for so long. I figured that there is some truth behind what you have just said.” Nyx answered calmly, and continued to add something, “I think about what was the use of my of my promises, if the person I valued was harmed. And what use was this body and fist have, if I'm even unable to protect her. It felt like I'm limiting myself, basically putting a stone in my feet and jumping into the ocean.” Nyx added, while looking and gripping his fist, “And now I decided, that from now on. If it's meant to protect someone, I will use it again to stop them from harming us anymore.”
“I did told you to follow what your heart desires, and if it is what your heart wants. Then I'll accompany you through it.” Leo replied.
“Why? What will you gain from it?” Nyx asked curiously as he found it suspicious.
“Leo then smirked and said, “I dunno, prolly because I'm just bored,” As he shrugged his shoulders.
“Again with that reason, but I will not use my fist without purpose. Just like what you have said, a fist with no purpose is nothing but pure violence.”
“So for you to contemplate about using it or not, means that someone was hurt and you have your purpose in mind, right?” Asked Leo while looking at Nyx.
“There is, just a while ago. I saw three men harming someone I wish to protect. I hate myself for being unable to do anything about it, but just watched them do anything as they please. But now, I'll find those three again and will exact my revenge on them.” Said Nyx with an angry expression.
“Maybe I can help you find those three for you. Tell me what they looked like and something that you uniquely remembered from them.”
“One of their faces kind of resembles Chris from our school, and the other two looked like his goons. You could say a typical gangster face” Nyx replied.
“What a way to describe someone” Leo said sarcastically. “But apart from that, what else did you remember about them?” Asked Leo.
“Those three have a raven tattooed on their wrists, I know that they are a member of the gang within the East Street.” Nyx answered.
“If so, that'll narrow down our search. If you really made up your mind to get your revenge on them, I know the exact place where those kinds of guys always visit.”
“Aren't you afraid of being dragged by me in this conflict? They are members of a significant gang called The Raven, after all.” Nyx asked curiously.
“Why would I? Apart from being your friend, isn't it exciting going up against a major gang within our area? Besides I'm bored, but don't get me wrong I'm not a fan of violence to you know.” Leo answered.
“Enough with your excuses, and just tell me where to find those guys.” Nyx replied while being impatient.
“Ok, ok, relax. Those raven or whatever guy this time, is prolly in the club located near the border of East and West Street. It is not that far from here, so we can just walk there.” Leo replied.
And so Nyx being impatient and having known the possible location of those three he just met a while ago. Couldn't help his feet but stood up and proceeded to walk to the Club. After a couple of minutes had passed of them walking, Leo and Nyx finally arrived at the club named, “Vixen NightClub.” They both went inside and as expected, Nyx immediately recognized the three men sitting and laughing at the corner with some girls in their laps. 
Nyx was so pissed upon seeing the faces of those three, and unknowingly went to exude an intimidating aura and bloodlust towards them. Leo, feeling it, hurriedly tapped Nyx shoulder and said.
“Hey, quit it and control your anger. You wouldn't want to be thrown outside by those gorillas like bouncers right there looking at us intently.”
Nyx being so angry doesn't give a fuck and said, “Why would you care about that!”
“Relax, relax, I know you are quite angry, but for now try to hold it in, ok. You wouldn't want trouble inside this club, aside from the cost of damage. The power behind this establishment is not someone that you and I can offend, at least not right now. For now, let's just sit and observe those three, and after they are done we will follow them, alright?” Said Leo, trying to convince and calm Nyx.
And so Nyx, while being so angry still manages to calm himself, after knowing the possible damages it will cost if the fight does break out inside the club. He doesn't want to add trouble to his mother, so both him and Leo quietly sit down in the opposite corner to observe the three men they are looking for. And after those three are done talking, laughing, and drinking for a considerable amount of time. They all finally stood up and ready to leave, and so the three of them left. Nyx and Leo, after seeing that those three were gone, they both immediately followed suit.
Outside the Club both of them are still tailing them closely, until the three take a turn in the dark alley. Leo then handed a mask to Nyx to avoid being caught and knowing their faces. But the three also knew that someone was following them and so they deliberately led Nyx and Leo to the alley.
“Hey you punks, that is enough show yourselves now!” Said by one of the three gangsters.
Nyx and Leo, after hearing what it said, immediately face them with a mask to confront them.
The three men all laughed upon seeing both of them and said, “HAHA, they were the one that's been following us? This brats?! That still wet behind their ears. I thought it was those Dark Crown bastards from West Street.” All laughing, while mocking both of them.
One of the three then goes on to say, “See, you are just being paranoid. It wasn't even a Dark Crown member but a student, you are just drun…”
And before the guy finished up his sentence, a fist then landed straight on his face and sent him flying and crashing into the wall.
“This bratstard!” One of the three shouted, while running towards Nyx and swung his fist with all his might behind it.
But Nyx easily caught it in his left hand, not even putting a bit of strength into it. He then pulled the guy towards him and using his right, punched the guy right in his liver. The force of the punch broke one to three bones in his body, and it even lifted the guy who is a full grown adult with both of his feet, from the ground. And after that, Nyx then gripped his arms tightly and smashed him to the wall where the other guy lies unconscious.
The two of the three men were now lying together on the ground. All that is left is the guy who looked like Chris, the one that accidentally slapped Nyx's mother. The guy witnessing what happened and the strength and power Nyx showed, was scared to his wit's. He was shaking as he slowly backed up, going nearer to the wall behind him, all while Nyx was walking up to him slowly. The guy repeatedly shouted “Stop!” To Nyx, but his words don't seem to get through to him.
The guy then pulls out his pocket knife from his back, trying to intimidate Nyx with it. But Nyx didn't care and showed any concern, and after a couple of steps. The guy finally found himself cornered in the wall behind him. Out of his mind, and from desperation. He charges at Nyx with all his power while holding the knife in both of his hands trying to stab him. And the moment where the knife is almost at Nyx's stomach, he calmly catched the hands of the guy holding it, with no effort whatsoever. The guy's eyes widened, upon having his hand caught without Nyx even breaking a sweat. He then wanted to say something to him trying to get out from the scenario of being beaten, half to death.
But before he could even say anything, a fist coming from his left suddenly landed on his face. The guy's blood splattered everywhere from his mouth with a couple of teeth flying with it. Then Nyx went on to massacre his face, with a barrage of fists coming from left to right. Nyx was engulfed by his hatred and anger that he couldn't even think straight knowing what he did to his mother, but beat the guy in front of him relentlessly. A fist that only targeted his face, unknowingly the guy was out of breath and was hair width away from his life taken away from him.
Leo witnessing all that happened, finally decides to step in and stop Nyx from landing his fist anymore. Which will undoubtedly end the man's life, and shouted.
“That's enough! Anymore than this I'm afraid that guy will be dead."
