Chapter 10: Escape
~Third POV~
With the group of Spider members surrounding Soul as he has his back to the corner as they slowly take their steps closer Soul takes this time to switch to his [Harvest] Stand.
Numbers against numbers.
Sweat drops were pouring from Soul's face as he gets ready the members of the Spiders and the waiter began to demand from Soul in a calm tone, "Now, now kid. If you leave your stuff here with all of your clothes and Lien. Also, drop your bag with all of your belongings and you leave here alive."
Narrowing his eyes at them Soul sighs at this as he was about to drop his bag, but a smirk came apparent on his face as one of the member's eyes widen at this as he spoke, "Fuck! Careful he going to – "
*BOOM*
*POOF*
Suddenly a large puff of smoke filled the area as Soul used his [Harvest] to summon inside the bag as a large explosion of the smoke bombs was used to release large amounts of smoke from the bag.
Using all 3 smoke bombs from his sub-mission Collect Iron Ores he managed to create a large enough smokescreen to provide cover as he used his [Harvest] to move around on the ground as he laid down on the ground.
*Bang*
*Crack*
*Bang*
*Thud*
*Bang*
That was when chaos soon ensued after Soul used the smoke bombs that he had used up thanks to [Harvest] activating the triggers to use them. With the commotion under the smokescreen the spider members started shooting and asking questions later but some did manage to hit their mark on Soul as he narrows his eyes.
Luckily for him that his [Harvest] units took the hits of the stary bullets aiming at Soul's body as he soon concluded a few things as he sees their eyes glow with different colors reflecting them confirming a few things for Soul.
Thinking critically to himself as he observes some of the gunfire projection lines of sights as he makes his conclusions in a serious tone, 'So these people can see my Stand… no that would be inaccurate it's that they can sense them. People with aura can somewhat sense my stands but not normal people as some of the Spider members that don't have their aura flashed and completely missed my position.'
"Ahh!"
"Damn it my arm!"
"Watch where you are shooting fucker!"
"Quickly find the guy!"
"No one gets away with this boy!"
"Ain't no one messes with the Spiders and live little man!"
Rolling his eyes at this knowing that his visions are blind under the smokescreen as he views everything from the bottom, he then orders his [Harvest] in a quiet voice, "Units drop down all the drinks in the area and harvest anything valuable. Attack any that would come to harm."
"Hee hee!"
"What the hell!"
"Where the fuck is that laugh coming from!"
"Shit what!"
"What are these things popping out of nowhere!"
*Crack*
*Splat*
That was when Soul that his [Harvest] started to attack anyone nearby that would harm the units as they began to drop down all of the drinks to the ground causing a big mess making them go splat as the spiders were getting angry missing their target.
The added destroyed drinks forced people to slip up from the spilled drinks causing everyone to fall. Not wasting the chance Soul took their moment of weakness to escape as fast as he could from there to make his getaway.
*Rustle*
Rustling away from the scene Soul soon gets himself away from the scene as he moves towards the exit as his stand [Harvest] dragged him out of the nightclub as he began to get out of the area as he saw the smokescreen is starting to lift the area but more so some blood splats in the ground.
The blood splats on the ground were from the Spider members as [Harvest] was done busy fighting them off tearing off from anywhere on their body.
Soul knew he stood chance in a situation like this as he began to hurry off as he finally reached outside as he began to hope for the best as he thinks carefully, 'I have to run quickly from the building. Then after that somehow resolve this mess, I'm in but first, these guys won't back off unless I have to make sure these guys go down.'
Finally sees the light from the outside as he views but clicks his teeth seeing the problem ahead of him as he saw what was going on, 'Shit… from the looks outside there are a lot more people outside. And they certainly don't look friendly now. Good thing I have just the things for this.'
Taking out two more of his smoke bombs from his rewards he began to throw them at the outside as he then heard gunshots from the distance clashing with the metal smoke bombs on contact.
*Clang*
*Boom*
*Poof*
"Cough!"
"Fuck smoke bombs!"
Using the distraction Soul finally managed to get out as he quickly left the area he was in quite fast but also made a grave expression on his face as he thinks of things that happened, 'What the hell is going on here? And what's with the poison in the drinks? Was it even for me or for the actual target the girl?'
As those thoughts enter his mind there were so many more happening to his mind as he thinks carefully more about the info presented to him as he thinks, 'There are so many things happening just that day and I may have made enemies of those Spiders. Why were those people wanting to kill me or was it by mistake? There are too many questions with too few answers to piece it together?'
Shaking his head he began to get out from his spot as he began to join the crowd as he thinks more carefully as he hurries off to find someplace to cover for the time being. Searching for a hotel was needed for Soul for the time being…
…
…
Elsewhere back at the Luck of the Mountain…
*BAM*
"Cough! Cough!"
Back at the now restored Night Club was the standing waiter with a few of his men from the Parrot Gang as the leader of the Spiders…
A heavy-set middle-aged woman with light skin and short blonde hair kept in a bob haircut. She has a spider in its web tattooed on her left shoulder, a beauty mark under her right eye, lipstick on her upper lip, and purple nail polish on her fingernails.
The top of her dress is white and backless, with long sleeves and details, such as beads and straps, in purple. Below is a purple corset, and a long pleated skirt that is yellow on its top layer, purple in the middle one, and white in the lower layer. Her shoes are brown and decorated with a green ribbon.
This person is currently the leader of the Crime Syndicate Lil' Miss Malachite as she has her second-in-command Chameleon beat the shit out of the waiter's teeth causing him to lose a tooth with some of his men tied up.
Lil' Miss Malachite as she spoke coldly at the men that were captured from the surprise attack left behind from Soul she spoke quite sadly, "Marco you had to go and do the deed did you. Trying to kill one of my messengers about the Gang war with the Parrots revival did ya now? Mhn… mhm… quite the trouble you cause me, traitor? Bad."
Spitting out some blood from his mouth as he glares hatefully at Lil' Miss as he responds coldly to her, "Cough! Paul Parrot won't let you get away with this Lil' Miss. Sooner or later you and your little band of bugs will get – "
*Bang*
*Splat*
That was when the head of the man has fired off thanks to Chameleon using her weapon of a whip that transforms into a gun shooting him with one shot.
*Bang*
*Bang*
*Bang*
When that was done the rest of the spiders also put down those that were involved with the attack as Lil' Miss places her hand over her head as she spoke, "Good grief. Having these troublesome folks causing trouble in my little club? Uhm. No sir I won't allow such troublemakers to go off that scot-free."
That was when one of the members goes towards her as he began to speak soundly to her about what to do next in a professional manner, "Miss. What shall we do about the one that caused the damage to the club? Should we proceed to take care of him or leave him be?"
At this question, Lil' Miss places her fingers on her chin at this as she began to speak out what she has in her mind as she was also there to witness what happened during the club fight, "Hm. I would say that this young man is very… bizarre…. But he did manage to save the girl that held info about those annoying birds… Something I very much appreciated."
As she says this she began to smirk very greedily as she saw the scene how one reacted to the scene. And with no weapons as well against the armed forces of men with guns as his back was behind the walls he managed to escape not only them but the reinforcements in the process.
That kind of thing she is already used to seeing some talented people does on a daily basis but to see someone else young and growing do the same feats as well as keep himself on top just shows how much potential he has to grow up towards to in the end.
Nodding her head slightly as she raises her fan she began to talk to herself again calmly but also quite seriously as she spoke to Chameleon, "Still though he does show some promising potential that's for sure. Like how Roman did in the past. If I manage to get him under the Spiders, it could help us with his useful ability. Chameleon can you search for this person and make sure he comes to me would ya be a sweet dear."
Chameleon nodded at this while she agrees with him as she also pities the poor guy that caught Spider's attention.

A/N: Now we reach the reason why the MC was caught in the crossfire by complete mistake by the rival gang. Now he has to deal with another whole kind of crazy will his new stand [Foo Fighters] help even the odds?
A/N Extra: I had a hard time with which Stand to give the MC that is good to have but not busted at the same time I was split between choosing Anubis, Magician Red, Dolly Dagger, Purple Haze, or Foo Fighters? Should I leave a vote for which next stand to choose for you to pick for the next mission or submissions?
