Kayden moved swiftly with the daggers held sideways. He appeared and disappeared a quite number of times and Joanna watching the battle from her hiding place lost count of it.
She dug her nails to her fleshy palms seeing the tattooed snake guy slashing Kayden's back with his daggers.
Arrghh***
A scream of anguish left Kayden's mouth as he staggered backwards. The men charged forward again giving him no chance to relax.
If they assumed that a mere slash would weaken Kayden then that means they were not aware of their opponent.
He proved them wrong by standing erect with his daggers stuck out, waiting for a throat to slit.
Kayden fought like the man of valour that he was. He didn't care whether his enemies were more in number he stood his ground.
As the battle went on, punches that could boil a hole in a wall were seen flying and glowing daggers swayed.
From merely watching the men fight Joanna knew they were assassins. Not just mere assassins but those that underwent serious training.
After fighting for close to ten minutes Kayden changed the method he used.
He decided to use the misdirection technique.
When he moved left the assassins will assume that is the direction he would attack from but only for him to launch a vital blow on the right.
Seeing that Kayden had the upper hand now made Joanna less anxious.
Arrghh***
Deafening screams filled the void as Kayden slit the throat of the guy with a low haircut.
The guy started disintegrating to dust before his body touched the ground.
The tattooed snake guy lost his sense of reasoning as he watched his right-hand man drop dead in front of him.
His gaze turned deadlier as he turned and looked in Kayden's direction. "Don't spare him," He bellowed, charging forward along with his remaining men.
"Come on, I am not scared of you," Kayden smirked evilly. He beckoned them on with the movement of his hands.
Just when the men charging toward him thought they had him, he vanished into thin air leaving them confused.
[Hehe… that is my man]
Joanna was so thrilled by his move to care about the thoughts occupying her mind.
When he vanished the clustered men that ganged up on him separated and searched for him.
He appeared in the same manner he vanished. Kayden didn't give the opponent whose front he appeared the chance to react.
He shoved the right dagger into the guy's chest. The guy's eyes widened in shock as he tried to pull the dagger out.
Kayden pushed the dagger in causing it to rupture the guy's heart.
Kayden got distracted when he tried to pick up his dagger. He didn't see the tattooed snake guy advancing toward him.
"Watch…," Joanna covered her mouth when she realised that she had said the words out.
Not only Kayden but the remaining two assassins' sharp ears captured her words even though she didn't say them loudly.
The growling tattooed snake guy diverted his attention from Kayden he wanted to attack to where the voice came from.
Realising that Joanna has become their target Kayden grabbed the distracted guy by the neck and pulled him to the wall.
Refusing to be trapped, the tattooed snake guy whom Kayden seized ran backwards with full force.
Bam***
He slammed Kayden's back against the wall. Kayden groaned in pain but he didn't let go.
Noticing how stubborn Kayden was, the guy repeated the same thing. This time Kayden's clutches around his neck loosened.
As Kayden was trying to keep the guy away from Joanna's hiding place he didn't see the second guy approaching her.
When he realised this he tried to go to her rescue but the tattooed guy kept him occupied.
The second guy was about five feet away from Joanna's hiding place when Joanna sprang out of her hiding place.
This action of hers made the second guy move backwards. His lips curled into an evil smirk when he saw Joanna lift both hands in the air.
He couldn't believe he was worried for nothing.
"I surrender," Joanna muttered. Her shaky voice caught Kayden's attention causing him to lose focus once again.
Joanna suddenly burst out laughing to the confusion of others. "Hey, don't tell me that is what you were expecting me to say, right?" She laughed harder.
The guy's frown deepened. He could take so much bullshit but mockery wasn't part of it and he was ready to teach Joanna a lesson she would never forget.
"Rip her mouth and feed it to the dogs," The tattooed guy commanded.
Slash***
The dagger pierced Kayden on his handsome face.
"Kay!" Joanna shouted, her heart pounding hard as she stared at the guy holding his bleeding face.
She tried to force her way toward him but the second guy obstructed her.
"I am fine," said the bleeding Kayden.
Really he was fine because if he hadn't dodged the dagger which the guy aimed at his throat it would have been his pile of dust that she would have been crying to.
"Let me give you a dagger…,"
"That is not necessary because my hands alone hurt more than a thousand daggers," Joanna smirked devilishly.
"After tonight's battle, you are only allowed to call me Boss Lady…,"
"Forget about calling you Boss Lady, I will even call you My Queen from tonight's onwards if you can stall him until I come to your rescue," Kayden's words showed he didn't believe her.
"If only he knew that this Joanna here is no longer a damsel in distress," Joanna muttered, her gaze focused on the guy fighting so hard despite his bleeding face.
Suddenly her right palm glowed red causing the second guy to stagger backwards.
As if that wasn't enough shock for the night her left hand glowed bright green.
The second guy sauntered backwards. His eyes almost fell out of their sockets. "What the hell is she?" His shaky voice gave away his fears.
"I really didn't want to use my powers but you both forced me. And now you are going to become the first person I used this on," Joanna's lips curved to a wicked smile.
She charged forward at an incredible speed that made her invisible. She was too fast for the astounded guy to dodge her attack.
Joanna covered her blazing right hand on his face and her glowing left hand on his chest.
Arrrgh***
Screams that could be heard from miles filled the quiet street.
