Chapter 23 - Angel in action

"Hey Faust!"

He turned around and saw a girl wearing a sexy witch costume. The black dress was cut lower showing her white cleavage that emphasize her rich assets. Her black skirt was 2 inches above the knee she wore fishnet stockings with high heels shoes. He couldn't help but get stunned when he saw her.

"Oh hey girl, are you new transfer?" Faust asked in greeting.

"No you idiot, it's me, Darcy." Darcy rolled her eyes.

"No you're not." Faust didn't believe it.

"I am, you want a proof?" Darcy asked while trying to explain herself.

"You're kidding me right?"

"Let's do it the hard way then, remember the time when you almost got caught when you tried to corrupt William with a playboy magazine during class? It magically disappeared when the teacher asked you your bag for inspection..but they didn't know that you passed it on me swiftly hiding it for you.. " Darcy jogged on her memory.

"Then there was this time, oh my god it's funny when I remember it----"

"Stop stop stop, okay I believe you. Just shut up, you are ruining my image here." Faust finally relented.

Then she looked at Darcy from head to toe checking her out. "You should dress more like this, I never knew you were this---"

"Beautiful?" Darcy quipped

"Hot." Faust blurted out subconsciously

"Wow I gotta record it, this is rare." Darcy was surprised when she heard it.

"I have a suspicion that you came to me as a shield." Faust squinted his eyes.

"Well yeah, a lot guys are looking at me weirdly so.." Darcy said embarrassingly.

"That's because you dress like.. that"

"Dress like what?" Darcy asked in return.

"Come on say it." Darcy urged while she pushing the record button on her phone.

"Hot, damn it"

Meanwhile, a white van gradually parked outside.

"Is it this place?"

"Yeah, here is his picture." Billy showed the picture of Faust with a sarcastic smile on his face.

Big Andy grab the picture and handed over to his men.

"Go and search for this guy."

All of the gangsters in the van got out and headed towards the Briggman Residence.

When they got to the front door, they knock loudly and rudely.

Bang bang bang!

"Open the door!"

Faust and the rest heard it from the backyard.

"How rude, I wonder who's that." Darcy murmured.

Out of curiosity, he went inside the house tagging along with Amy to see who was knocking.

"Your neighbor?" Faust asked.

"I'm not sure, we don't have a rude neighbor. Are we too loud?" Amy asked in confusion.

"No..I don't think so."

Amy opened the door and they saw a group of gangsters outside. Each of them are holding a weapon such as baseball bat, iron pipe, iron knuckles and a knife.

"Hey pretty lady, we're looking for someone, mind if you invite us inside? Hehehehe." asked by one of the gangsters.

"You don't seem to be high school students. You're not invited here. Go away before I call the police." Amy threatened.

"Listen here pretty lady, we either search your place forcefully or not is up to you. We need to find the guy we were looking for and we heard he's here."

Before everything gets complicated, he pinch Amy's hand as a sign and then he immediately intervened.

"Can you show us the guy you're looking for? Maybe I know him and I could lead the way."

"Here." One of them brought up the picture of Faust so they can look at it carefully.

'This idiots didn't seem to recognize me cause I'm wearing a vampire make up.' Faust chuckled inwardly.

When Amy saw the picture, she immediately looked at Faust. On the other hand, Faust made an eye contact with her and hope she got the message. In the end, Amy didn't say anything and let Faust take the helm.

"Oh I know this guy. I can lead you to him. He's just here a while ago. Let me call him first so I can confirm where he is right now." Faust stated calmly.

Faust fished out his mobile phone from the pocket and dialed Angel's number.

Ring ring

"Hey man, someone is looking for you. Where you at? No.. No.. They seem 'friendly'. Around the corner? Yeah, I got it."

He turned around and whispered to Amy that he got this and she should return inside.

"Let's go guys, he's just around the corner. Follow me." Faust said while he started to walk away.

The gangsters followed him through an alley towards an empty parking lot.

As they were walking, one of them impatiently said, "Hey kid, where is he? Are you messing with us, huh? There's no one here."

"Wow, you finally figure that out. Took you long enough. Sigh thank god you're all idiots." Faust turned around and said mock them calmly.

Then another one of the gangsters said, "I get it now. No wonder you look familiar. It's you who is in this picture right? You just put on some make up?"

Clap clap clap

"Very good, hey! give that guy a raise, he's using his brain."

"Stop messing with us you punk, now that you're here. Let's get this over with!"

"Hold on a second, I don't like it when someone is watching how you beat me up." Faust stopped them before they rush forward.

Faust picked up a stone and activate his overdrive, then he threw the stone towards a cctv.

Bang!

"Now that's been taken care of, let's get on with this boys."

Then he turn his head towards the darkest part of the parking lot.

"Angel! Hey I thought you want to have some fun?! Come on, they are all yours."

Woooooooooshhh

"Arrgghhhhhhhhh"

Bang!

The gangster who was at the very back suddenly disappeared after they heard him shout. Then they saw someone fly and slammed towards a car that was parked.

"Holy Shit! It's still awesome witnessing it in person." Faust shouted in excitement.

On the other hand, the gangsters were getting nervous because they didn't know who attacked them.

"What the hell was that!?"

"I don't know, I didn't see it clearly."

When they are about to shout again, they finally saw the culprit who was attacking them.

"It's a woman! Why the hell are you afraid of a woman? What fuck are you guys doing? Attack her together!"

The group of gangsters rush forward and raised their weapons to attack.

After Angel punch the gangster he grabbed earlier in his gut, she felt someone hit her at her back.

Thud!

She turned around with an annoyed look and saw the gangster who hit him with a pipe. The gangster looked terrified as he saw his pipe bend backwards just from hitting her. Then Angel grabbed his shirt and threw him a few meters away.

"Ahhhhhhh!"

On the other hand, Faust who was enjoying the show was about cheer her when he saw the smart gangster approaching him.

"While they are busy, I'm going to take care of you. You're our target anyway so our mission should be over once I beat you half dead." The gangster showed his sinister smile while swinging his baseball bat.

"Ughhh I thought I'm going to watch this whole time. I guess I'll have some fun too." Faust complained.

"I'm going to enjoy beati----Ughh! You shameless little prick, I'm still talking."

He gangster wasn't able to finish what he's going to say because while he was busy talking, Faust picked up a stone and threw it hard at him.

Thud!

"Who would be stupid enough to wait for your speech, asshole. Just enjoy eating my stones. It's more than you can chew."

Faust picked up another round stone from the ground and hurl it towards his enemy.

Unfortunately, the gangster learned from his attacks so he shielded his face for the incoming stone. He thought he wouldn't be able to get an advantage in long range battle so he went forward to get closer just enough to swing his bat.

'This guy is really smart. He didn't just mindlessly fight, he is using his brains.' Faust thought as he watch his every move. At this time, he's already toggling his overdrive on and off.

"Hahaha let's see how you dodge this." He swung his bat towards Faust head but he dodge it by ducking.

"You do have an advantage now, but..."

As the gangster go for another swing, Faust suddenly rushed forward to close their distance.

"What if I'm this close? Hehehehe." Then Faust push the gangster's arms in his left waist and locked it with his left arm. Then he punch his face hard.

"Ughh!" The gangster stumbled backward in pain.

"Fuck, that hurt! What the hell does your face made of?" Faus shook his right hand trying to relieve the pain.

Then Faust yank the bat off his hand so he could use it instead.

"Stay down, smartass or I'll use your own bat and blow your head off like a watermelon. Let me enjoy the show, okay?"

All of a sudden, he sense something was flying towards him so he subconsciously ducked to dodge a flying gangster. Good thing he sense it beforehand.

"Hey, watch it! I might die in your hands instead of these gangsters." Faist shouted in frustration.

"Sorry, boss! I'm almost finished with this haaaaaaaaah urgh!!" She rammed another gangster towards another car.

Bang!

A few minutes later, all the gangsters were unable to move except the smart gangster.

"You finish?? Come here and pinned this guy to the ground. We are going to ask him some questions nicely."

"Got it"

Then Faust turned towards the smart guy who was the only one awake.

"Hey, I have some questions for you. Treat it as a casual chat and believe me, I don't like to force others in doing something against their own free will. Feel free to deny or stay quiet okay?"

While talking to him, Faust positioned himself at the top of the gangster's head. Then he pointed the baseball bat towards the ground while posing a striking form like he was about to swing it like a golf club.

At this time the gangster's face was full of sweat as he watched Faust started to sing.

"La la la la... I'm gonna swiiiiiiing...on the chandelier.... On the chandelier hiiiiiiiii" 🎶

Then he swung the baseball bat in full force near his head but purposely miss it.

Fwooooooh

"Sigh, looks like I don't have a gift on playing golf, tch! Let's try again."

As Faust aim his swing towards his head again, the gangster gave up and shouted.

"I'll talk, I'll talk please, don't play like this man. You're more like a gangster than me." The guy started to choke and cry.

"Huh? What are you talking about? I'm just playing here minding my own business, okay? This is not interrogation. I didn't ask you anything, did I?" Faust feigned innocence.

Angel rolled her eyes hearing his shamelessness while the gangster continues to beg.

"Please please.. Sir I'm going to talk. You didn't ask me, I'm saying this to you on my own.. I'm begging you please let me go... I have a child--"

"Fuck you, stop lying to me. I know you don't have a child." Faust couldn't help but kick him.

"Okay okay, that's a lie but please let me go, I'll talk now okay??"

Angel, who was curious asked Faust, "How are you so sure that he doesn't have a child?"

"Easy! Look at his face. Now tell me, would you fuck him? Even when drunk?"

"Oh yeah, that's pretty obvious." Angel nodded in realization.

"That hurt more than your beating." The gangster cried.

"Hey smartass, start talking now or I'm gonna start singing chandelier again... Ahemm."

"Okay okay, we're from Big Andy, the gangsters who rule the streets of this area." The gangster spilled quickly.

"Go on.."

"Just earlier this day, someone approached my boss and hired us to beat you up half dead."

"Who's that guy that outsmarted you?" Faust couldn't help but ask.

"I don't know his name but he said he was the son of a high ranking police officer. He had a blonde hair and he was limping when he walk."

"Oh.. It's seems that guy didn't given up just yet." Faust muttered.

Then Faust continued, "How much did he pay you?"

"The deal was twenty thousand dollars.. Ughhh"

Faust suddenly kicked him again and he couldn't help but curse loudly, "Fucking piece of shit, I'm only worth twenty thousand!? You could extort him more money why did you charge him with only twenty thousand?! This is pissing me off."

"Don't hurt me anymore, I'm already talking."

After a few minutes, Faust regain his composure and asked, "So you guys do something like this for money, huh? How about I pay you fifty thousand dollars, you can do anything to him just don't kill him."

"Are you listening? Do we have a deal or not?"

"W-we have a deal, sir." The gangster murmured weakly.

"Very good, hehehe. What's your bank account number? I'll transfer the money now."

A few minutes later, Faust was a able to transfer the money to their account and the smart guy started helping up his friends. As they are about to leave, they heard Faust saying, "Remember, it's a full payment. If I don't see any results soon, I'll come looking for you and we'll play golf!!"

Hearing this, they were so scared that they started to run away.

"Why did you spare them?"

"They are just hired goons. Besides, anything that can be solved with money is not a problem. Hehehe, fight money using money. Just determine who's wealthier." Faust explained.

"So...did you have some fun?"

"Yes, a little bit. I was able to stretch my muscles and unleashed some of my strength." Angel replied while flexing.

"That's good. As for me, I wasn't able to have fun yet so I'm going to return to the party. Keep an eye on them."

"Got it."

Then Faust turned around, walk back towards the Briggman residence while he murmured, "Heh, Billy, I'll let you taste your own shit soon. Hehehe."
