Ch 12: The Raid Of Enemy
In the underground hidden base trio of Daredevil, Luke and Jessica also their new friend Blade were sitting. Blade just did a special surgery on Luke. It was pretty difficult because of his hard skin but Blade managed to finish it.
"So you are meaning we are noticed by some vampire gang?" Jessica asked.
"Vampire Council. They are controlling all vampires in America and Europe since the 18th century. In other words since the great slumber of Court Dracula aka No-Life King. Council is controlled by the five great families of vampires. They are the Loneblad family of entertainment and food recourse of vampires, the Cristopher family of politics and cover, the Goldchist family of recourse and finances, the Blackhunt family of underground force and business, and the Crownguard family of rules and policy. You guys just now raided one of the Loneblad family's storage houses. And the vampire you guys killed is called one of their family members." Blade explained things about Vampire Council and the five great vampire families. What they are responsible for and how their power system works.
Sub-species aka slaves. You can say they either failed to become vampires or slaves with blood contracts.
1st Class aka human vampires. They are vampires that successfully transformed. Or half-bloods aka half-vampire and half-human. They can be only foot soldiers or
2nd Class aka worker vampires or citizens. They are vampires born from both vampire families or vampires that are related to pureblood. Something becomes a vampire by a pureblood vampire or born from a family of vampires but their family doesn't have a pureblood member.
3rd Class aka Pureblood Relatives or vampires who belong to five great vampire families. They are vampires that are related to pureblood vampires but they aren't pureblood.
4th Class aka Pureblood or Five Great Families direct blood member.
5th Class aka Family Head of Five Great Families or vampire lords. They are vampires with great reputations, achievements, and powers.
6th Class aka Royal Vampire. There is currently only one vampire with this status that's Court Dracula himself.
"Looks like finding Lily is a little difficult," Luke mutters in low voice. Hearing Luke's words Blade said: "If you are searching for this little girl called Lily. I think I know where she is. Or at least who is holding her."
"Who?"
"Altosar one of Blackhunt family elders. He is one of the Blackhunt family's five elders and I heard he just visited Harlem for business a few days ago." Hearing what Blade said Luke punches the table in front of himself very hard it divides into two pieces.
"Altosar? Good, I found the bastard I needed to fuck up." Luke said with a serious face.
"Just three of you going to raid him? You must know if it wasn't for luck you three couldn't even beat that old butler. Let alone Altosar himself it's even hard to say whether three of you could pass his guards. You need the help of a professional if you want to kill him."
"So you what you wanna say is you want to help us."
"You can understand that way. I have been hunting them for years but even so what I did only slowed down their growth in power but the core is still there. They can stop caring about NWC and focus on other cities at any time. The only reason they are focusing here is that they are keeping an eye on something here in NY."
"What is the thing they are keeping eyes on here?"
"Don't know, it seems related to Dracula himself somehow. So my offer is I will help you guys to save that little girl in return you will help me capture Altosar."
Hearing Blade's offer trio becomes silent for a few seconds before Daredevil agrees. "I accept your offer."
Luke looked at Matt and said. "Daredevil we can't just believe in him."
Daredevil shook his head with a smile and said: "I can promise you he didn't lie. Also, you don't need me to call that anymore. My name is Matt, Matt Murdock."
Then he tools off his mask off. "As a person who risked our lives together, I think I don't need to hide anymore."
Jessica who saw this gasped and said: "OMG, you are that blind lawyer I heard about. Wait a minute, if you are blind then how do you do what you did tonight? Are you fake blind?"
"I'm not fake blind. It's just my hearings are good." Matt said with a small smile on his face. Say the truth he didn't trust Jessica much at the beginning. But after getting in life and death situations with her and how she helped Luke he changed his mind. She is the kind of person who can earn trust pretty quickly.
"Hmm… fine I accept your offer." Luke accepted Blade's offer. Matt's self-reveal also played a big role just now because Matt didn't reveal his identity to him till now after they got into a life-and-death fight with himself. And he knows he isn't casual enough to reveal himself in front of Blade. So he trusted Matt in this matter and followed his decision.
"Well, truth be told I didn't know about anything about vampires till tonight. It's really big information to accept in one go. But hey who am I to become an elephant in the room? I accept your offer." Jessica said with shrug.
"Then it's deal then. Meet me at nine PM tomorrow in this location." Blade then gives a paper with the location to Luke and was ready to get up from his seat. Suddenly he saw his computer filled with red alert signs.
The trio of street heroes saw it too. "What the hell is it?"
"It means someone is invading my base." He then clicks on a few buttons and shows video footage of three men. One with a bullseye logo suit, one with a black tactical combat suit, and a woman with a red suit and mask.
"They are getting close get ready." Blade then opens the closet beside them and reveals a bunch of weapons made of silver. The trio looked at Blade in amazement. You must know silver isn't that cheap to get. But this dude has a whole weaponry made of silver with himself.
Blade turn around and looked at the trio and said: "What are you waiting for chose your weapons."
Trio moved immediately hearing his words Matt took the silver staff while Luke and Jessica chose gauntlets. After arming themselves with a few little things they were ready for battle. Soon door of the control room is blown away and the trio of invaders reveals themselves.
Black combat-suited man moment he looked at Luke then open fire on him without hesitation. Luke took bullets head-on because he know his skin is bulletproof. Bullet did hit his shoulder but couldn't pierce his skin but suddenly unexpected thing happened.
Bullet's outer shell exploded and it is inner shell directly breaks through his skin. In pain, he falls on his knee while holding his shoulder. He greets his teeth to not scream in pain while looking at his wound.
"What happened Carl? Did your unbreakable skin betray you like how your dad did to me." then the man in a combat suit runs towards Luke. He then tried to shoot him again but Jessica runs in front of Luke and uses the desk to block the bullets.
Woman with red rushes towards Matt they trade a few blows with each other. Sound metal collision will echo every time their weapon collides. Matt uses his new silver staff to counter the woman's twin Sais.
The man with a bullseye logo suit is fighting against Blade one on one. Blade who felt himself getting overpowered a little said in surprise: "Looks like at the end Kingpin becomes an underling of vampires too. He is even sending you."
"My target is not you stupid bastard. Boss sent me to take care of Daredevil but on my way, I meet with this lady and that dude. The dude right there is a famous Diamondback himself. He is here because he wants to take revenge on this Harlem guy. Not gonna lie he got some fancy toys for himself. I heard they are all fro-" his speech was interrupted by a sudden bullet from Diamondback. Luckily for Bullseye, he dodged from it in time.
"Don't you think you are talking too much shit don't you think you shit fly?" Diamondback said while still looking at Bullseye.
"I talk as much shit as I want you ugly sucker." Bullseye then throws a glass cup towards Diamondback which was shot into pieces by him.
"You shithead do you fucking know how much this fucking bullet cost?! Because of you, I wasted whole twenty grand you damn shit!" Diamondback then suddenly starts shooting toward Bullseye.
"Then stop shooting towards me you dumbass." Bullseye then took out his pistol and start shooting toward Diamondback. Who quickly jumps behind cover to just get knees by Jessica on the face. He flies out from his cover and hits the floor in front of Bullseye.
"So who is shit now you bastard?" Bullseye then points his pistol toward Diamondback.
"Fuck this shit, I didn't like you two from the beginning anyway!" He suddenly hits the ground with something and then throws it into the air. Bullseye then shoots it in instinct. Bright light covers the whole room and everyone lost their sight for a few seconds before they heard four gunshot sounds followed by small explosions, screams of two or three men, and the sound of someone running away.
When everyone regains their sight they saw Blade sitting ground covering his stomach which was bleeding heavily, a hole in the ceiling, Bullseye who is laying on the floor, and Matt on the ground who is holding his shoulder and things between his legs.
It seems like the only person who left the invaders is seems like only Bullseye even though he is now just a body. Jessica and injured Luke walks towards Bullseye's body to check it but suddenly they heard Matt scream: "He isn't dead yet!"
Suddenly Bullseye kicks the duo of Jessica and Luke. It sends both of them into the air and hits the ceiling and fell on the floor with the face. Bullseye then jumped up from the floor and looked at Blade on the floor with a smile. His teeth were filled with blood first Blade thought it was Bullseye's own but he realized his wrong when he spits off a human finger.
…
"Fuck! I will kill that bastard when I meet him again!" Diamondback screams in pain while holding his hand. He was missing his pinky finger. Then he took out his phone and called someone.
"Hey, Hammer bro I need more Judas. Give me ten-no give me another twenty… what the hell do you mean you don't have more?! You said you brought that huge chunk of alien metal meteor from Life Foundation. You said… fuck! Does Army buy it all? For what? Green giant and for mutants?!… fine! I'm so fucking fine! I will call you when I need anything more!" Then he throws his phone into the ground in anger.
"Damn it, Hammer! You really know how to disappoint others when you needed them!" Diamondback kicks the trash can beside him in anger. Suddenly he heard footsteps and turns around to just saw a Russian man with a bunch of guys that seems like gangsters.
"Seems like your pal Hammer doesn't take you seriously." Russian man with a smile on his face. Diamondback who was angry aims his pistol towards him. But the Russian man seemed didn't care much and continued to walk towards him.
"Alright you motherfucker walk one more step toward and I will feed you with lead snacks." Russian man just smirked at this and then he appears in front of him that speer invisible to the naked eye then punches him in the stomach.
Diamondback falls on his knee while holding his stomach in pain. "You know buddy I think we can work together. You wanna kill Luke Cage and I wanna kill rid of them all. How about let's work together? I can supply you with a weapon that can kill Luke Cage in return you help me get rid rest of them."
"H-how the hell am I supposed to trust an asshole like you?" Diamondback said while looking at a Russian man with killing intent in his eyes.
"You don't Willy my boy. Because you have no other choice than to follow my order. So Willy whatcha wanna say? Wanna give a shot to your uncle Zaran."
"Fuck you, like I have a fucking choice. Tell your cunts to aim your guns somewhere else." Hearing Diamondback's answer Zaran smirked and helped Diamondback get up.
"Now what? Are you going to give me Judas' bullet or something?"
"Believe me Willy the thing I am going to give you now is way better than any scrap Hammer sold you." Zaran took out a strange bullet that seems made of flesh and said: "This baby is going to make you the bullet that fierce through Luke Cage's skin."
