Kapitel 65: 65. Movements in the Dark Zones

"Boss Cap, I think the new members are ready enough to fight?" A bald man slightly bowed to the person in front of him.
The person just nodded his head and dismissed his right hand person. This man is surprisingly the leader of the Scorpion group who battled the Knuckle Gang years ago, Cap.
After that intense fight, Cap managed to escape together with some of his men and hid themselves carefully until things eased down.
That was also the time that he received news that the Knuckle Gang's leader, Red Knuckle, was still alive and managed to take hold of his position of the gang. One can say that their fight isn't over yet. Cap made sure to take his revenge someday. He recruited new members with potentials and had his men train them.
After years of not involving themselves in the matters of the dark zones, it is time for them to make a move. Cap vowed to himself that he will take the position of the strongest group in Rubando's dark zones after they will defeat the Red Knuckle.
Also, he will make sure to be wary of the mysterious groups. Although those mysterious groups do not care about such things like fighting others for fame and glory, Cap still noted in his mind not to provoke them.
'Just a few months. Yeah, I'll wait for a few months, and I'll make my move.'
Just like before, Cap clenched his fist and few amount of blood seeped out from his skins. This is his phenomenal ability, which he termed as 'Overdrive.' His overdrive will increase his awareness, including his strength and speed. The only downside of his ability is that it will make him insomniac.
Usage of his ability will make him sleep less. Right now he only sleeps two to three hours a day. Although there is no serious side effects of his lack of sleep due to the effect of using his ability, Cap feared that there may be a day when he can't sleep anymore. Cap can't imagine what will be his condition if that happens.

Night time.
Mardez and Xander are walking side by side with Mardez wearing their Scar Outfit.
"It's been ages since I wore this outfit. Wearing it makes remember those days when we became a group thanks to our leader." Mardez then closed his eyes and enjoyed the silky feeling of the black shirt and black gloves he wore.
If one looks at him, one may compare him to the main character of the movie 'Assasin's Creed.'
Xander didn't bother to wear the outfit since almost everyone knows him in the dark zones. It's also a long time since he came out from that gloomy mansion. Actually, that mansion was owned by a previous politician of Ballar. Xander managed to secure the house as their base so he basically owns it. No one from outside the dark zones will bother to complain since it is inside the zones.
The two's destination is the Black House. They didn't want to fight but only to go and watch some fighting scenes and go grab some beers.
Fortunately, Xander didn't forget about the entrance pass which he lent to Jay, so they will surely be allowed to enter.
The two eventually approached the entrance and the two guards in the gate halted them for the entrance card. The guards are also surprised to see Xander together with an unknown man. The guards bowed in respect and allowed them to pass.
When Xander and Mardez have gone a farther from the gate, the two guards immediately had a conversation.
"Dude, that's Xander right? The one called Ghost?"
"Yeah, it's Xander the Ghost. I wonder who the other one is? He is wearing the Scar outfit."
"Surely it is one of the Scar members. Jeez, their presence alone gave me chills. I can't still forget how they made a name for themselves here in San Francisco."

The two entered the large building and was met by noises the crowd is making. They managed to squeeze in to the crowds and took a look at the middle of this large building. There they saw two fighters fighting in the ring.
"Hey man, remember Godfighter? That's the bulky man over there in the ring." Xander whispered to Mardez.
Mardez focused his sight to the ring and he recognized Godfighter, his first opponent here in the Black House few years ago. Mardez can't forget that fight where he luckily guessed the opponent's next move and he made a fatal blow which made him won the fight.
Mardez still remembered the nickname he used for the Black House that day, 'King.'
Up above, Crisanta, the owner and manager of the Black House is looking at the two with a surprised
look. Who would have thought that two members of the Scar Group will come here at night? One is the Ghost, while the other one is unknown to her.
"Ken, take a look over there." Crisanta said while maintaining her gaze at the two below. The man beside her followed her gaze and was shocked when he saw the two.
"That surely is the infamous Xander the Ghost right? Who is the other one?"
"I don't know, but it's so rare for them to come here. I wonder why?"
Mardez and Xander made their way to the bar to have some drinks.
While walking, Mardez turned to talk to Xander. "That woman up above is staring at us for a while, and she's staring at us even right now." Mardez said, not even turning his sight to Crisanta.
"That is the owner of this place, Crisanta. Don't bother about it, I'm itching to have some beers."
They went to the counter and ordered their drinks.
They got their orders and they chatted while drinking. It was at this moment that Xander sensed someone with the intent to approach them. That person stopped behind them.
"Good evening Ms. Crisanta, what's up?" Xander greeted without turning around to face the woman behind them.
"Your senses really amazed me." Crisanta is holding a glass of wine and standing behind her is Ken. "I wonder why you too are here? It's rare for the Ghost to appear in this lowly place of mine."
Xander then turned around for a bit and threw a smile towards the lady.
"We just want to drink beers with my friend here, hehe. It's been a long time since we haven't seen each other you know." Mardez just nodded his head towards the woman.
"Your friend. I'm sure this friend of yours is Red Eye."
The two are surprised that the woman knows who Mardez is.
"So it's true. Don't worry, I only know he is the famous Red Eye, but I don't know his real identity. I only know he is Red Eye since fro. what I know, he is your closest friend among your group."
Xander and Mardez just laughed a bit in relief. It will be troublesome if she also knew who Mardez really is.
"I will not disturb the two of you. I only came here to greet the two members of the number one mysterious group of San Francisco. Have a happy night. Cheers."
