Chapter 2

1 year has passed since then and the plan to overthrow the Lotus family is set in motion, until one day Mark got a call from an unknown number. After hearing what the caller has said he can't help but feel burning anger rise within him.

The call he just answer was from the leader of Lotus family saying that they got hold of Gwen. Gwen is the little girl he was planning with to overthrow Lotus family. They found out about their plan form a spy within Gwen family. Since they can't got hold of Mark they decide to go after Gwen since even though many people was guarding her it's still manageable.

When Mark hung up the call he directly call Gwen father the head of Bern family for confirmation.

"Did the news about Gwen is true?" Said mark to Gwen father Smith.

"Yes, do you know where she is mark? I think i have a clue where she is , but can't think of why they suddenly got to action" said Smith to Mark. Ever since Mark purpose the idea of overthrow the lotus family to him they became quite close to each other since Mark will occasionally visit their estate to meet with Gwen.

"~Haa.. your is correct Smith. Gwen is with them right now. They want me to came there alone if they if not they will not promise what will happen to Gwen." Said Mark

"What!? Is it true mark?? Where are they holding Gwen?? I'll bring my man there right now, you stand where you are and don't rush in" said Smith anxiously

"Hey oldman.. you deaf or what?? You think your man can escape from the of lotus family?? If the found that evan a single person of your man in the vicinity they will kill Gwen no matter what. Dont worry I'll go there alone. Meanwhile you better clean up your house old man, there some rat around your house" Smith was shocked after hearing what he said. That mean is their family someone has betray him..

"Don't worry mark. I'll handle just that, now i know why they decided to move. But are you sure mark?? You know that it's a trap right??" Said smith

"Haha don't worry old man I'm not call a genius for nothing. Soo you better cook some dinner when i come back, i kinda miss your shitty cooking " said mark with a sad smile. He know better than anyone what lotus family is capable of. If they want him dead they will try any mean possible to kill him.

"F*uck yourself kid, it's 1256 time now you call me 'old men' I'm still 56 years young" Shout the Smith" Ethier way be carefull kid, if i know you die I'll hunt your ghost bring it back and kill you again hmph" Smith also know this might be they last time talk to each other. He wasn't a idiot they family has been rival for many years and every little mean they got he will know be it bomb, plane crack, 'accident' or even use of thug to kill.. He knew that it will be hard to escape from there but he still had some hope for Mark because he knew his daughter is secretly in love with him, mark ofcourse know about it but still keep silent about it since it's not time to confess yet.

"Haish.. senile old man. How do you want to bring me back?? Are some kind of orochimaru that experiments on dead? Hahaha, well bye old man i got things to prepare" Mark smile at the old man antics.

"Whatever kid.... You something to said to Gwen if you suddenly decide to go on 'Vacation' after this 'trip'?? " Smith say because he knew mark only got 20% chance to escape from there even if he bring out everything he got. Because the hardest fight is each side know to well regarding each other.

"... Live well, make me proud" that's all mark has to say because it's come from his heart. A smile appear on his face after he said those word and hung up the phone.

"..." Smith just stay silent for awhile, he did not realise that tear start to came out from his eye. "You better be safe kid" he said before looking up to sky while thinking about his word.

Back to Mark, he start to pack up his 'baby' and got to his harley davidson iron rr3. When he got on his motorcycle his face change and became serious.

"So they want to play this huh?? Even if i die there you will not came out 'gracefully' leader" said mark before glancing over his katana and desert eagle at his side.

"Hey buddy you better not break when we got there ok?? Hmmm i never thought of a name to both of you how about 'ichi' and 'san'... hehe that's a good name i guess. Well let's go." Mark said but unknown to him his sword and gun start to glow when he said that.

"Haa how nice of it if i can just hiraishin there like minato did. How can such a feminine bastard be that genius?? Well that's life i guess " said mark while riding to big ben tower.

After about 30 minutes he arrive just 3 km away from the tower. "Fuck, they really want to kill me huh? 300 meter around perimeter is full of men. That's not include inside the tower. Haaaa how bothersome" said mark while snooping at his sniper. His sniper has heat sign so he can see inside the building with no problem at all

1 hour later.

After Mark finish clear up the area his body now is full of cut from either knife or gun scratch. Eventhough mark is skillful he is still human in the end, add up to the people he against with is not some normal thug he sure as hell got some injury here and there.

After mark arrived on top of the clock tower his face can't help frown when seing infront of him. What he see is a woman that tied up in chair with bomb around her belly, the woman herself was a beauty with a blonde hair wearing a white shirt with a jean jacket on top of it and a long tight blue jeans to top it of.

It will really a sight to behold if not for the bomb and she is unconscious right now. Mark walkup to her slowly in fit of anger not because of her but at that bastard that did this. But Mark didn't realize that someone was hiding behind the pillar because of his rage he didn't bother to check the surrounding.

It was to late when he realize that someone was hiding because the said person has already shot at Gwen.

Bang

Yes not at Mark but at Gwen.. because he know that Mark has stupid sense of danger couple his agile body he can evade in time so he target at Gwen.

"SHIT.." said mark before he rush toward gwen hugging her and take the bullet for her. "Gah.."mark can't help but groan felling the pain from his just under his heart.

But he didn't let the pain do shit because right after that he take 'ichi' his gun and shot to the man and kill him on the spot. Gwen by this time already awake and see that mark was being shot was shocked but can't say a word by her mouth was covered.

"Headshot.." Mark said to Gwen with a smile on his face. He knew that Gwen has woken up so he try lighten up the mood but fail miserably as Gwen start having tear on her eyes.

"Hold still" mark said as he start to figure out how this bomb work. And well he did but he can't help but frown after figure it out because evan after he diffuse the bomb he only has 2 hour before it start to explode.

But thats good enough because he had plan. That is to deliver the right to the door of Lotus family. After thinking about this he quickly unstrap the bomb from gwen and strap it around his wrist. When Gwen see this she know that he has some stupid idea but before she said anything mark chop her behind her neck and got up to finish his job. "Sorry Gwen " mark said while smiling gently at Gwen before start to leave.

Just as he exit the building he is surrounded by 60 people all around the building. Mark didn't surprise because he expected this.

"So it to this huh brat?? Truly ungrateful child you are. We raise from a toddler to a warrior you are right now but you still betray us huh? For what?? For a woman?? For peace?? Fucking retarded, in this world there always war, even if we dont start it other's will." Said the leader of Lotus family coldly to Mark.

"..." Mark just stood there silently while looking around to see his 'brother in arm' with gun on their hand aiming at him. Yes even though he was raise inside Lotus family he didn't have any attachments toward them. That's because since he ever remember all they ever done to him is torture just because to get use he they ever got caught. Many of his friends die because they can't take it. And those who survive was broken to the core without any emotion.

"Silent treatment huh.. wel enough of that, men kill this bastard for me" right after he said that all of them start firing at him from all direction . Mark can't do shit when being shot from all direction but he still rush ahead to the leader and killing almost half of the the man just with his gun and sword.

Reaching all the way infront of the leader his body has multple hole on it while the in his hand he hide it on his crotch. Arrive there he look emotionless at the leader.

"In the end you are still human huh.. humph is this all you can do?? Don't worry after you i will take 'care' of that girl of your" said the leader while sneering at him. But inside he has shock to the by the sheer vitality of the man infront of him.

"...." Mark just stood there silently while glancing up to the the top of big ben. Up there he see a blonde beauty stood there crying whlie looking down at him, he just smile gently at at her before turm back to look at the leader infront of him.. he took the bomb in pants and strap it on his wrist, eventhough he was visibly shaking because of the injury he still did it..

'~Haaa, finally it's the end huh?' Lookup to the sky he though in his heart. He always wonder what it meant to be free. What it feel like to be free?? Unfortunately for him he didn't have the opportunity the be free.

When the leader see the thing that was wrap to mark wrist he was pale and immediately order his men to shoot tp shot at mark , but it was to late because in the middle of his speech it interrupted by a loud BOOOOOOM Before everything around 100m start to explode with at the center, everyone around died including the still alive his 'brother in arm' when mark push the button.

Gwen start to wail after the seing mark explode and Smith arrived just in time to see mark suicidally act. He just came back from dealing with the 'rat' in family before rushing here. Although mark didn't tell him where the place Gwen being hold was, but all he need was just to told the police to quickly report to him if they got a report about a gun around the city. But he was just a bit tad to late to change the dead of Mark.

"Idiot... " Smith mutter under his breath while tear start to flow from his eye. Even though he expect it he just dont want to believe it.

"EVERYONE SEARCH FOR ANY SURVIVORS AND SAVE THE REMAINING ONE. AFTER THIS WE WILL GOO TO LOTUS FAMILY TO FINISH WHAT HAD BEEN START" although sad he was still a leader so he quickly came back start ordering his man.

Afrer he said that he walkup to the big ben tower and saw his daughter wailing out of sadness of her love one. He came by her side and start hugging her after she calm down he told her what make said when the last time they talk "Live well, make me proud" that was all it was to take to make her cry again but this time she didn't cry for to long before speaking.

"IDIOT.. watch me from there will you??" She said while looking to sky with determination in her eye.

Nobody notice but a blue light aura was around before fading but not before he speak

"I WILL"
