Darko stopped and turned. He spun in a small 360, gesturing to the five Blades to stand still. They were outmatched, and Darko knew it. They had tempered steel blades, and from their stance, he knew that they could use them. Which brought him to another conclusion. These were not Kagie.
The one who seemed to be in charge spoke out "We've been told to take you out, and we plan to do it, so if you would just lay down your weapons and this will be over very quick."
Darko spoke up; "You're not Kagie..."
"This one 'ere's a detective!" the leader laughed "Nah, don't compare us with those rich-boys. We're Iris, you're our target."
Darko adjusted his knife in his satchel, beyond their vision. Meanwhile his allies looked nervous and scared. One even dropped his pipe, making their attackers chuckle.
"If you're not Kagie, how come you're here? Iris never works with lower gangs..."
"Listen, we were given good money to take you out, not talk" the leader gestured to his group and they all closed in, two blades were down in five seconds.
Darko drew his knife and cut one of the Iris across the hand, then quickly jabbed into his stomach three times. Behind him Iris and blades alike were screaming out, Darko zoned them out. He had his sights on the leader. As he was running towards him, one of the Iris came from behind and slashed down Darko's leg. Darko was bleeding, and alone. He saw a gap in the circle of Iris and dashed through, limping on his good leg. They chased after him, but Darko knew the city better than most of the residents, and quickly lost them. He muttered something under his breath, and started walking back to the warehouse. He needed to have a chat with Korgo.
Darko pounded on the warehouse gate, and it was opened by the same two kids that were there before, they saw his injured leg and stepped out of the way. Darko didn't pay attention to them, he walked quickly up two flights of stairs to Korgo's office. Korgo was holding a glass of wine and talking and drinking with some of his lackies. He looked at Darko and almost fell out of his chair.
"Darko... How.. You went to burn-" Darko cut him off by grabbing his hand holding the glass and squezzing hard enough to shatter the glass into Korgo's palm. "You tipped off The Iris..." Darko muttered into his ear. "Very bad... Sending six of your own men to get slaughtered..."
Korgo manged to talk between gasps of pain "What do you mean? AGGHH..... I... I never did anything like that... Please let go and I- ARGGGGGGhHA....... I'll make sure this is sorted out"
Darko glared into his eyes "I can sort this out by my self...." Darko picked Korgo up from his chair, and quickly walked over to the window. Before Korgo or his followers could do or say anything, Darko had thrown him through the glass headfirst into the ground. There was a shattering noise, a scream, a crunch, and then silence. Darko turned around and looked at the faces of the Blades that had came up to see what the noise was about.
"Well? There goes your old leader! He was a traitor and a liar! Anyone who thinks I would be a worse leader, can follow him out the window...." Nobody moved "That's what I thought.... Now, first order of business, someone fix that window..."
