Shadow Eye Vol.2 Preview

(Ivo): What are you idiots doing!? Get up there and stop him!

(Driver): Sir, shouldn’t we keep the other knights at bay?

(Ivo): Don’t worry about them! This elf is way more dangerous! Now shut up and drive! The rest of you, kill that elf!

*The four drivers of the vans hearing Ivo’s orders loud and clear drove up to the sides of the freight and allowed their passengers to climb through the windows and attach themselves to the freight. The four men who worked under Ivo climbed up to the top of the freight to stop Dust in his tracks and pulled out a weapon each. The one who was the closest unsheathed a dagger from his back. The second one unhooked a chain from his waist that caught fire and began swinging it around. The third one got out some brass knuckles from his pockets that were emitting electricity. The final one readied a pair of batons. Each man was human and had on black ski masks to hide their identities*

(Dust): Alright. Who wants to fly first?

*The man with the dagger came charging at Dust swinging wildly at him. Dust managed to dodge all of the attacks with what limited room he had. Dust managed to hit him with a jab to the throat which caused the man to stop attacking as he was struggling to breathe. Dust followed up by grabbing the dagger arm of the man and punching him in the stomach. This caused him to drop the dagger. Dust then threw him off to the side of the freight where he hit the side of the road hard before rolling into a ditch. The man with the brass knuckles charged at Dust where he jumped over him to avoid his attack only to get caught by the man with the fire chain who managed to wrap the chain around Dust’s right arm. Dust could feel the fire trying to burn through his coat and quickly yanked the chain to pull the man towards him. Dust delivered a clothesline to the man to drop him on his back and then picked him up quickly. After pulling him up, Dust put the man in front of him to absorb the attack of the man with brass knuckles. The man who had the chain was punched in the chest where bolts of electricity ran through his body as he screamed out in pain. Dust tossed the man over the edge of the freight, but the man grabbed on to the edge and hung there trying to pull himself up. Dust then attacked the man with the brass knuckles with a monkey flip attack. The man with the brass knuckles slightly spun in the air and landed on his back. Dust attached a wire around his ankle and then fired off the other end of the wire to a light pole. The man was dragged off the freight and then hung upside down on the pole. Dust then turned his attention to the man with the batons where he was hit with a gust of wind that pushed him back. The gust of wind came from the man with the batons who banged them together two times which lit up the batons in a green color. The man then slammed the batons on the freight and unleashed a gust of wind that made its way to Dust. Once again Dust was pushed back only this time he was at the edge of the freight. The man with the batons quickly banged his batons together once again and fired off another gust of wind which pushed Dust off the freight. Dust quickly fired off a wire to the side of the freight and swung in the air before running along the side of the freight to get behind the man with the batons. Dust jumped into the air and fired off another wire on top of the freight past the man with the batons. The man with the batons turned around to see where Dust was, but the sun was in his eyes and he couldn’t see clearly. Using the momentum of the wire to pull himself down, Dust delivered a hard left hook to the jaw of the man with the batons before landing safely on top of the freight. Dust followed up with a roundhouse kick to the head of the man who staggered to the right side of the freight and fell over. He landed on top of the roof of one of the vans before bouncing off and landing on the side of the road. While this was going on, the man who previously had the chain was able to pull himself back up and tried to attack Dust from behind. Dust could sense his attack coming and did a back flip to escape the attack. He landed safely on the freight and crouched down*

(Dust): Look out behind you!

(Man who had the chain): Nice try.

*As the man was about to attack, he got hit from behind with an overhead sign on the highway. This causes him to fall off the freight and land on the hood of Leon’s car where he bounces off to the side*

(Leon): Well that’s going to leave a dent.
