95 Slip up
When the scouts sent to shadow Rahz and the others never showed up, the followers of the God of Justice were sweating bullets specially the son and father duo that requested the main branch the Ring of Louxx for auction. At the end of the day, it wasn't a bad strategy to use a nice bait to hook a fish and maybe get a whale. Who knows maybe they could get another piece of the set.
The scam had been run by the Orthodox believers many times and this was the first time that it backfired on them. If Elune had already left the area of Naas,there would be hell to pay. The Auction Director just hoped the scouts would come back and report but the prospects looked pretty bleak. Ross's father had no other choice but to take Elune's picture to the headquarters of the God of Justice and explained what happened and labeled the picture as "Extremely Dangerous Possessor of the Ring of Louxx" the S.O.S made them the laughing stock of the faction but the item was much more important than their reputation.
Rahz and the team were unaware of what was happening behind the scene and were happily returning home after multiple gains from the members. By the time Rahz and the others reached about 15 miles from the town it was already extremely dark out but there was no danger from beast in the area so they continued on their way home.
"Do you guys hear that" Said Igor
Rahz and the others stopped walking and pay attention, but the moment they stopped so did the thing making the sound.
"Nope, I guess it was nothing.."
After 10 seconds the team started walking and a faint sound of "Shing... Pssh" was heard again but it immediately stopped as it also heard their steps.
Elune whispered " Igor invis and go check it out"
Igor nodded and head it towards the noise as the other side also decided to inspect what was happening. Igor reached the site and saw 3 small bodies and a half made hole, while the person making the whole saw Rahz from a distance.
"Young master somebody is making a pit to bury 3 corpses"
Riddick repeated the information to the rest of the group and when Elune said out loud, "The Blood Harvester "It was overhead by the person in question who drank a potion and started running away.
"Riddick tell Igor to follow him from up in the air and find out where he hides, make sure he stays invisible"
Igor did as told and the team went to inspect the three little corpses. The three corpses were wrapped in a white cloth like a mummy and when Rahz and the others unravel the corpses within, the expression of pain in their faces made Rahz's lose control of his emotions.
"Why.. why.. They are just kids, who can do something so terrible. They shouldn't be older than five years old".
"What did you say" Said Elune as something clicked in her mind. Elune thought that despite their contorted faces, the kids looked familiar she just couldn't place from where she remembered them.
"They must not be older than 5!!!" repeated Rahz as Rage continue to build.
"Snap...The Awakening Ceremony!! But why them?" Elune check them out for a missing Rune and they checked out.
"Let's go Rahz, all we can do now to help this kids is to catch that bastard. We need to move quick and alert the others before he has time to escape or dispose of the evidence".
The team double time it back to town, and as soon as they made it to the gate Igor's voice finally came back and said that he had followed the suspect all the way to the doors of a mansion in the most expensive area of town but he had not been able to proceed further thanks to the tight security of the place. The only piece of information he was able to gather was that all the guards seem to call him Young Master.
Rahz quickly talk to the guards and informed them that they had information about the Blood Harvester and that they need it to speak with the Captain in charge of the investigation. The guards hesitated a little and Rahz was not in the mood to wait so he moved a corpse from his pouch and put it at the feet of the unfortunate guard that jump backwards. The more witted of the two quickly asked Rahz to put it away but all the people around it had already seen it.
Rahz picked up the corpse and quickly followed the guard towards the office of his higher ups. The moment the captain heard of what was happening he couldn't help but frown, he had received orders to keep everything outside of public view and now thanks to his subordinates it was front page news.
"Let me see the corpses!!" said the captain already annoyed at the whole situation.
Rahz was about to say something but he was stop by Elune. The truth was that the corpses spoke for themselves. The three children were place on the floor and there were 2 boys and a girl. The moment everyone saw them their attitude change, it was horrible. Elune complemented the story by saying they had seen the children in the awakening ceremony that happened 2 weeks before and that they had met with the Blood Harvester in the south forest when he was digging the pit to bury the corpses.
"Are there any more cases of children missing in the passed two weeks?"
All the guards looked at each other and started sweating profusely, there had been 6 cases and now they had solved Three. The other three were in the hands of the Blood Harvester no doubt about it.
"Who are the other missing children?" asked Rahz already angry at the lack of progress from the guards.
The captain pull out hand drawings of the other three children and when the last one came out Rahz face was pale and then it was completely livid. His Energy started going out of control as he ran towards Riddick and scream "HE TOOK EMMA, WHERE IS IGOR WE NEED TO SAVE HER"
RAWWRRR!!!
Everyone 500 ft away heard the Roar and then the ground started shaking going away from where they were standing. The disturbance alerted some of the guards but the momentum Riddick was picking up was increasing more and more.
"Riddick!!! Chaos Rush the place" screamed Rahz when they saw Igor pointing at the mansion.
With his Four Legs and the massive increase in weight, the true potential of the skill was invoke as a ball of chaos fire rush towards the mansion and the guards that stood in front trying to prevent it from happening were knock flying and landed like two pieces of charcoal on the ground.
"Where is the your Young Master?
"What is going on" said the head guard of the mansion but before he could finish speaking a metallic green serpent appear from his shadow and bit him in the arm. Immediately, the Basilisks venom started cursing through his veins and it took all of his power to stop it.
Before he knew it Chaos Chains made of almost blue chaos fire wrapped around him and started burning his skin. It was all over as Rahz grabbed his chipped Axe with both hands and chopped 4 times on the Guard's head until he split it in half.
Blood and brain matter fell on the maids face as Riddick grabbed another servant and screamed in a very powerful Voice "WHERE IS EMMA?". The servant hesitated a second and Riddick just ate her head and threw away the body.
Riddick reached for another person when a stuttering voice said, "The Young Master went to the guest house. The Exit is down the hallway,and to the right" Rahz just sneered and nodded to Riddick who Chaos Rush Destroying anything in his path while the trail of Chaos Fire started to burn the house down.
The maids started to run outside screaming and powerless to do anything.
BOOM!!
It was like a Semi hitting a drywall house that crumble leaving behind only a set of stairs going down. Rahz went inside while Midori followed and Riddick stay on top protecting the entrance due to being too bulky to head in. The moment the loud impact sounded, the Blood Harvester realized there was no way out. He had made sure that nobody had followed him by looking at the window of his mansion for an hour before coming down to dispose of the rest of the bodies but who would have thought that the hour he spend being cautious had cost him his escape.
