The scavengers' fort was in turmoil. The enemy attacking them struck without warning and decisively. With only a single kick or punch, shooters would be put down. Their guns meant nothing in front of the man's reflexes.
Gunshots and screams echoed across the fort. The boss was scared in his chamber for the first time. He looked at Shia in the corner, being guarded by his right-hand man. The leader grabbed his crystal necklace and prayed.
"Who is attacking us? Do you think it is those dogs from Osiris?" asked Cicatrix.
Shia spat at his feet. "I don't care who it is, but I hope they kill you." The fury behind those words stung Cicatrix.
Many years ago, Cicatrix started the scavengers to survive. He truly treated everyone equally. As the troop grew, he realized he needed more resources. He then began to enslave the newer members joining. He then divided his faction into by labeling miners and scavengers.
Shia was once a decent looking woman and arrived when Osiris drove out their homeless population. She was a hard worker and did her best mining. Her and Cicatrix fates only crossed one night when he got drunk and fell over the railing.
The woman chanced upon the man who enslaved them all. She could have killed him, and no one would have ever known. Shia wasn't a killer. She brought him into her shack and allowed him to rest there until morning.
Since then, Cicatrix always looked out for Shia. Especially after she lost her arm in the mine. Commonly most cripples became haulers or other jobs, but Cicatrix made her become a nurse. This made it so she wouldn't have to enter the mine unless there was an injury.
Many scavengers knew the boss favored her, so they left her alone most of the time. Deep down, they just considered her Cicatrix's woman. When events went down in the pit, the men brought Shia away for the boss to decide because no scavenger wanted to be on the boss's bad side.
Shia, at that moment, regretted the nursing of Cicatrix. He put out the order to go back to work. Cicatrix commanded the scavengers to stop the miners from finding their friends and family. Today she realized that the man who was so sweet to her as he hurled in her home was a heartless monster.
"Now, you don't mean that, Shia," Cicatrix responded. "I have always taken care of everyone here, especially you." The boss was disappointed to see his decision to stop the miners caused him to lose the one woman he had ever loved.
"Boss, the enemy his heading for your building!" A communicated voice over the radio reported.
"Bull, you can leave her with me. Go handle it." Cicatrix ordered the guard next to Shia.
The tall and muscular man nodded and headed out the door. In mere moments later, the chamber shook from what was something slamming against the wall.
A tall man, with black hair and ragged clothes, walked through the door. Shia eyes lit up, seeing him fine. "Leo..." She whispered.
Leo's fury calmed for a second and smiled at Shia. Seeing her alive and well, he was glad. Cicatrix was floored. He couldn't recognize the man with his skin grown back. How did this man know Shia?
Cicatrix grabbed his pistol and shot towards Leo. If this man was standing there, then he must have gotten rid of Bull. Reacting almost immediately, Leo sidestepped the gunshot and leaped forward, punching out.
The punch landed, blasting the boss through the wall. Leo wouldn't pull any punches on a man who enslaves others. Leo walked over to Shia and said, "Sorry, I kept you waiting."
Shia reached over with her hand and placed it on Leo's face. "Silly boy. I'm glad you have returned." Shia didn't question how he had come back. She was just happy to see her boy again.
All of a sudden, Shia's collar went off, and she electrocuted. She withdrew her hand instantly, not to effect Leo. A man clade in an ancient blue mythril armor walked through the hole in the wall. Cicatrix's necklace's crystal glowed with a light from his chest plate.
"Stop right now!" Leo screamed.
Cicatrix released his finger off the collar device. The boss looked at the man standing over Shia, and fury radiated from him. "Who the fuck are you?" asked Cicatrix.
"Your death."
Leo was about to attack when Cicatrix replied, " you take one more step, and I kill her."
Hearing this, Leo froze stiff.
"Good, boy. Now I will give you three options. Put on that collar off that table, kill yourself, or I will kill Shia."
Leo looked at Shia and then said, "No." He quickly reached for Shia's collar. Cicatrix didn't expect this result and pressed the collar device as fast as he could. Leo grabbed each side of the collar and pulled. He and Shia were only shocked for a second before the collar was pulled off.
He had to shoot Leo now while he was distracted. He opened fire on Leo and Shia. Leo picked up Shia and leaped out the door. A few shots hit Leo's back, but he just ignored them.
"Fucking bastard!" Shouted the boss. He ran out of the door and looked around. Leo or Shia was nowhere in sight. "Where did they go?"
Leaping towards the armored scavenger, Leo swung an iron pickaxe. The boss used his arms to block Leo's blow, but he was knocked back into the wall. He lifted his gun and started to fire at Leo. He rolled out of the way and knocked the gun out of Cicatrix's hand.
"Even without my gun, you can't hurt me..."

Leo didn't even let him finish, but his pickaxe bounced off the armor. Without mana or an artifact of his own, how would he break this armor? Leo just started to attack Cicatrix relentlessly. The force of strikes blasted the armor-clad man threw the wall.
Cicatrix crashed into his desk, and a bag of items fell to the floor. A watch, a heavy metal mace, and a few others laid there.
"My stuff..." Leo said, walking towards the boss. He bent down and picked up Stonebreaker. "Let us try this again," threatened Leo.
