Abandoned Site

"Yuna!" Shinwoo yells as he and Ikhan desperately sprint into the room, the latter wielding a wooden bat. They both skid to halt in front of the 2 kidnappers who were just terrifying Yuna for their own amusement.

"Shinwoo," Yuna calls out, weakly, she was just on the verge of crying.

"That was quick. You must have ran over here without any hesitation, huh?" M21 notes, stuffing his hands into his trench coat pockets, "there's one missing, but that doesn't matter. Shall we get started?" M21 inquires, his voice dripping with excitement.

'These guys... we saw them on the street before. I thought the call was from the guy who attacked Yuna. Why are they the kidnappers?' Shinwoo wondered in suspicion and annoyance, it didn't make any sense. Shinwoo glanced over to Yuna and examined her for any injuries, but could find none, 'at least Yuna's unharmed.'

"Why are you doing this?" Shinwoo demands, voice not once wavering.

"Hmm... why?" M21 chuckles, ecstatic that he would finally receive the entertainment he always desired. "You must have been curious. I wanted to tell you in person. You guys don't need to be introduced to each other." At that instant, the infected slides past from behind M21, exposing himself to the trio who were left petrified at the sight of him. They broke out in cold sweat, their body's trembling while the colour drained from her faces.

'He's the man who attacked Yuna. Is it because we have witnessed the murderer? Is that why you're trying to eliminate us?' Ikhan shivered as he realised that he and his friends are going to be killed.

"We are here to give you a generous offer," M21 informs.

"Offer?"

"As I told you over the phone, we are here to give you an opportunity. Save yourself from this guy," M21 points to the infected which confuses Shinwoo and Ikhan. "Don't worry, we won't interfere. Simple, right?"

"If we protect ourselves from him, you won't come after us anymore? How can we trust you?" Ikhan demands, eyes nervously flickering to M24's intimidating frame.

Both men started to cackle softly which caused the trio to flinch back in terror. Ikhan's 

"We didn't have to go through all this trouble. We could have killed you at any time. But, if you don't like the offer... then you can just die," M21 let out an immense killing aura that could be felt within a hundred-mile radius.

"So all I have to do is win, right?" Shinwoo summarises, taking a few steps forward to his opponent.

"Now you get it."

"S-Shinwoo," Ikhan stutters. He grips the bat even tighter, splinters embedding themselves into his skin.

"There's no other way," Shinwoo tells Ikhan as he prepares himself for the fight. He takes a deep breath then appears right in front of the infected who was caught off guard. He bombards the infected with numerous powerful jabs to the chest before knocking him away with a flying spin kick.

"Wow," Ikhan gushed.

"Oh," M21 whistles impressed alongside M24.

"Puhahaha! See that? That's how good I am!" Shinwoo gloats, he crosses his arms over his chest and guffaws energetically to his friends. His optimistic enthusiasm certifying to Ikhan and Yuna that everything will be alright.

"Shinwoo, you are the best!" Ikhan commends thus fueling his best friend's ego. Neither noticed the malicious smirk growing on the faces of their enemies. "S-Shinwoo..." Ikhan stutters his eyes widening in shock as the infected gets back onto his feet, blood drizzling down his chin.

'All my attacks were accurate, but he stood up as if nothing happened...' Shinwoo grins not deterred in the slightest as he gets back into a fighting stance, 'so you won't go down easy, huh?' Shinwoo slugs the infected in the face then aims another right at his gut but the infected snatches Shinwoo's wrist which catches him off guard for a moment before he responds with an elbow to the infected's face.

"Krgh," unfortunately Shinwoo's attacks had little to no effect and the infected countered with his own punch which Shinwoo barely dodged in time.

'He should've been knocked down and lost consciousness by now... but how does he counter attack? My attacks aren't working at all. Is he a monster or what?'

Outside the Abandoned Site 

Rai and Frankenstein had just arrived at the site, they were glaring at the building that imprisoned the children. The two continue forward until Rai faltered in his step before looking back.

"Master?" Frankenstein inquires as he follows his master's line of sight.

"Dad!" The twins screech to a halt a few feet away from the duo leaving behind skid marks. They heaved huge breaths of air but it wasn't due to exhaustion but rage. Tsuna places a hand on her hip while Giotto cracked his knuckles, both glared up at the building.

"Let's teach those bastards a lesson," Giotto growls baring his teeth.

"Yeah. Never mess with our friends," Tsuna spits out.

They all head inside to rescue to Shinwoo, Ikhan and Yuna

The last chapter of Noblesse is coming out on 7th January (I think). I can't believe it's ending so soon. I wanna know more about the blood stone and Rai's older brother.

I'm crying cause we all know how Noblesse is going to end even if we don't want to admit it. Let us pray and make fanfictions where the whole crew is happy and alive without the Union.

Oh, and Merry Christmas.
