Im-im-impossible!!
"The only place YOU'RE going is Hell!"
In the blink of an eye, Yashamaru had vanished. No one would be able to tell where he'd gone, until they saw the point of a katana sticking out of Dengar Roth's chest. "Are you out of your mind, or does the lack of a conscience cause insanity?! I will have no part in the death of an innocent, especially not in front of a child!"
He withdrew his blade, watching the man to ensure he perished. "...I'm sorry you all had to see that. Both his bloodshed and mine." He looked around, fingers not gripping the hilt of his katana moving up to the collar on his neck. "Two millon can be divided into five, right? I'm not taking all those credits for myself."

DENGAR HAS BEEN ELIMINATED
FATE: IMPALED BY YASHAMARU
Yashamaru's collar began to beep.
//BOUNTY ADDED// CURRENT BALANCE: 2,011,000
Three Champions down. Forty Seven to go.
"I can't say he'll be missed," Gen clucked. "Your actions were brutal, yet effective. You saw a potential threat and you eliminated it. I won't hold you to some higher moral standard. You did what you believed to be right."
Gen opened the side door of the crashed car.
"Dengar is dead. We are one step closer to being free of this world, and we have a means of transportation. This was an absolute win."
With a turn of a key, the engine roared back to life. The car started to hover inches above the ground.
"We can divide the spoils on our way. From here on in, we'll protect our own. No matter the cost. That's the price of survival. Now let's get going. With every bounty we redeem, our fellow hunters will grow more desperate. We need to strike hard and fast."

The fact that most kept their distance was good. How they were intent on watching him, however, wasn't. Some of them, he could tell, were trying to size him up. They were the likely ones that could pose a threat in this situation. Underestimating him would be a mistake, however.
"I'm not interested in killing you or those civilians out there unless you're hostile. I just want to buy some clothes." Ouka replied, watching the cashier's body language intently as he grabbed two cloaks and set them on the counter.
"If it's a problem, I'll just leave and not buy anything, which means one less customer....how much are these?" He added. He paused for a moment, before making eye contact.
"If you'd please, remove your hands from under the counter." It was hard to detect his emotions, voice monotone and expression barely changing.
He wanted to be in and out, he didn't have time for anymore chit chat right now.
"!!" His body went tense for a moment, sensing both Daniel and Marianne as they attempted to stop Trudgen from attacking one of their own. It was odd, not like sensing magic from fellow magicians back home, but at least sensing something similar.
He frowned, unaware of it for the most part.
"How much?" He asked again, wanting to leave.

"Those'll be 5,000 credits a piece. 10,000 in total." The cashier carefully removed his hands from under his counter and slowly scanned the two items into his computer. He's body remained stiff. Part of him still didn't trust Ouka. His movements were slow. Intentional.
"Sorry. Damn computer's running slow today." He tapped his screen a couple more times. "Give me a minute..."
He tried to scan the items again, this time even slower still. As he did so, his eyes constantly flickered up to his customer. He was careful to observe him, but refused to make eye contact.
"I'll try once more time... No... it's still not... sorry..."
A bead of sweat crawled down his cheek.
He was stalling.
His eyed danced to the door.
He was waiting for someone.

"I... I said stop!"
Daniel quickly got to his feet, watching as Trudgen approached Markus with the clear intention to strike him. Daniel didn't really get why this was all happening, but he couldn't just let people hurt each other without any good reason. He reached out with his hand, feeling a familiar tickling sensation run up his arm and all throughout his body.
Regardless of how Marianne's attack went, Daniel took hold of Trudgen with all his telekinetic might. With a swing of his arm, Daniel attempted to throw the man right across the mall and away from the others.

"...!" Marianne watched in horror as one of the hostile men from earlier attacked both the boy and another. She couldn't just stand there and let them get hurt...there had to be something she could do!
And there was. "Dear Goddess, please let me be in time..." The young noblewoman quickly uttered a prayer, hoping her Goddess could hear her even in this scary new world. Raising her hand, she cast Nosferatu on Trudgen. If he was in good health, the spell would not be nearly enough to kill him, but hopefully it would give him enough pause so that the others could escape!

District B- Mall Food Court
Marianne and Diaz' combined attack was enough to toss Trudgen across the food court like a ragdoll. He struck the sign of a fast food restaurant with a rack, and a moment later, both he and the sign neon board were sent tumbling towards the ground. He brushed the broken glass from his robes and growled. A dozen phone cameras captured his humiliation.
Channelling his anger, the Knight of Ren stretched out his hand and called his blade back to his hand. Trudgen made sure that it's handle swept Diaz's legs on its way back to him.
"Three against one is hardly fair..." Trudgen spat. A smile formed beneath his mask. He planted his cleaver in the ground and cracked his neck. "Perhaps I should even the odds a little..."
Trudgen wasn't a sith. He wasn't a jedi. His relationship with the force was a series of flings at best. But he could still call upon it in times of need. He could weaponize it. Conjure it into a fist and direct it at a target. He raised his hand before his face, and slowly closed his fingers. The Mall's glass ceiling began to crumble. Glass began to fall like rain.
Safe within his armoured suit, Trudgen charged forth. He wouldn't make the mistake of underestimating the boy twice. He flicked with wrist and extended a vibro-spear. His raised his weapon above his head and leapt into the air, ready to strike down at the Daniel.

"Or, how about I give you a better term. Now I'm no stranger to your type; bounty hunting and the like. Nepsy and Gearsy show me all sorts of stuff when I visit their Planeptune. So how about I change the deal to my favor and yours. I'll hire you! Any money I earn, I'll split it 20/80 so that you get the largest amount and I only keep what I need to survive, and my terms would be that you're not allowed to kill me or anyone I become friends with. Plus once this is all over and we both survive, I'll pay you however much credits I have left. Deal?"

Kayn and Rhaast
@Sark @Raynar Saassin @Ottonomous Ghost @Crunch @Gummi Bunnies @Jackythejack @District A Underground
Kayn had to stop his sprint almost immediately as Boba took hostages, skidding to a halt. His expression hardened even further as the bounty hunter proposed a 'deal,' if it could even be called one. It involved killing innocent people, two of which were children.
The Shadow Assasin shook in anger. It was bad enough that kids were brought into this game in the first place, but now they were about to be slaughtered like lambs? Boba Fett was truly detestable. Everyone here appeared to be foreigners, but the bounty hunter most resembled the suffocating spirit of Noxus. "You have no right to determine their fate, Noxian," he hissed, his face expressionless. He slowly approached the mercenary, his eyes piercing through the darkness of the armored mask. Holding Rhaast with both hands, he lifted the Darkin and rested him on the back of his neck, his stance becoming that of a farmer carrying heavy buckets of water. While such a stance was hardly threatening on its own, something about it let off a harrowing aura. I'm interested in a different kind of deal, to pay off a different debt, the adoptee thought to himself. He had vowed long ago to kill every Noxian he came across, and he was essentially looking at one right now. Spilling the blood of Noxians, he believed, would rid himself of his own, and avenge the Ionians that had died all those years ago.
However, instead of attacking with Rhaast, Kayn would use a weapon of his own. Fear. He could see a trace amount of anxiety within Fett's eyes, and by testing his boundaries, he hoped to subconsciously draw his attention. Perhaps Saltzpyre, Uzume, or Rena could subtly take advantage of it. If not... then it was Kayn who would have to light the spark eventually.
District A- The Underground
Boba didn't take long to reply. He didn't need to waste time weighing up his options. He turned his blaster towards the ceiling sparing Uzume.
She was a secure pay check, and 80/20 was a damn good deal.
"Make it 85/15 and you've got yourself a deal." Fett snapped. He turned his blaster back towards Kayn and raised his aim. "Sorry, gents. The deals off."
It wasn't the quiet exit he had hoped for, but he could work with the cards he had been dealt. Working with Uzume would secure him an extra few hundreds thousand credits per kill. It wasn't a hard choice to make.
He unleashed a flurry of blaster bolts in Kayn's direction, attempting to shoot his legs out from under him. Kayn had drawn his successfully drawn his eye away from his friends.
"Uzume. Kill the hostages. Stab me in the back and you'll be praying for a quick death."

HIGGS MONAGHAN
Higgs moved, he moved a lot... so there was no chance in hell that the knife trick that Chase pulled would land it anywhere other than the ground.
The bad news is that Higgs lost his knife.
He wasn't surprised when he found the church abandoned, but he was surprised at the plaque.
The goddess will give back tenfold? Higgs smiled, seeing this opportunity.
So if I give 100 credits, Higgs thought, would I get 1000 credits in return?
The small screen... was it a credit holder? He has one around his neck... so he decided to try something. He held the small screen up to his collar and tried to give it 1000 credits, hopefully gaining 10,000 credits in return.

The donation machine beep and did... nothing else. There was no monetary monetary reward for his kindness, only a warm feeling him his chest.
"Hello, is there someone--" The Vicar emerged from the church. "--Oh, a donation! Thank you, good sir!"
The Vicar offered Higg's and open hand.
"You've just put us one step closer to fixing the root. May the Goddess bless you and shield you, sir!" He pushed the church's old doors open a little more. A gust of wind blew out the last of his candles. The Vicar simply laughed in the face of his misfortune. "Please! Come inside! I've got a pot of stew cooking. The heaven's will break soon, and I wouldn't turn away such a kind soul on a night like this..."

"Hmm. I wonder what that was."
Kurome then saw a red dot flash in her eyes, causing her to squint slightly before noticing it move down to where her heart would be. Then she heard a sound. Not quite recognizing it but then having a flashback to a certain CPU Candidate's weapon of choice, she simply stepped out of the way of the shot in front of a street lamp and then quickly moving behind a wall in an attempt to dodge the shot.
"Hmm. Seems like someone wants to try their hand."

District A- The Museum
The Imperialist's blast tore the concrete Kurome had once stood upon. Shards of stone were sent flying in all directions. A few travelled as far as Kurome's alley and hiding spot.
If Kurome strained her hearing, she could make out the distant sound of... scurrying.
Across the rooftops, a crimson blur ran, its many legs crackling against the glass towers.
It slipped through an open window on nearby tower and seemed to... vanish?
Her foe could turn invisible, so long as it remained still. Another red dot appeared on Kurome... only this time, it was fixed on her forehead...

"I---" Frost stammered. "I take it back. You... you're saying a lot of words that I don't understand, but you're tone is speaking volumes. I'm not looking to have anything ripped or... anything like that, I just--"
The Frost Demon shuddered. He bowed his head and gave in.
"Getting booze it is... I guess..." He followed in Bad Girl's wake. "My name's Frost, by the way... yours?"

She grabbed another beer and chugged it down in one go. "The MOTHERFUCKER who started this and any fucking asshole who thinks they're hot enough shit to take Bad Girl down. Are you one of them? Slimy ass freak. I don't see any holes on you but if you try anything I'll rip you an asshole before I show this bat up it. Swing you around like a fucking puppet and then slam you so hard your brain falls out of your head. Or," She giggled turning back to her original quest of finding more booze. "Fuck that noise and help me find some booze. How about it?"

Chase Davenport
“ You really learned nothing....” Chase would activate a force field before he would drop kick him. He would lower his guard for a moment, dropping the gun and giving Higgs a chance to grab it. That was a mistake as the man would teleport and go for a head blow. Luckily, Chase had his magnetism app still up and would reverse the polarity of the knife, sending it back into Higg’s shoulder ( in a downward position so if he did move, it would be lodged into the ground)if he didn’t move. “You might want to get that checked,”he replied, watching him teleport away. “ Not exactly how I wanted to wake up. So, let’s get this over with. I’m Chase Davenport and I would like to propose a temporary alliance. And no, I didn’t use the full extent of my powers, that was just two, so I really don’t want to attack you and would rather get out of here alive.”
"A temporary alliance?" Vamp sneered.
"Killing you would earn me 2 million credits. Working with you would afford me nothing. Betraying you might bring me a step closer to death. The way I see it?"
Vamp removed a knife from his belt and lubricated it with his tongue.

"Fighting you will award me with one of the two things I desire. Freedom, or Death. I doubt you could provide the later but--" He raised his blade to his eye and watched its steel shimmer. "A man can dream, can't he?"
