Chapter 197: Bank Robbery (4) - Warzone
Xenia walked back over to the bank manager who sat scared-stiff at his desk, “You’re up, Mr. Manager.”
The manager stared at her wide-eyed and then pointed to himself, “M-Me?”
“Walk with me.” Xenia turned the corner, and the manager followed her until she stopped directly in front of the vault door, “I need you to open the vault’s outer door for me.”
The manager looked at the door and paused before breaking bad news to Xenia, “Ma’am.”
Xenia looked at him expectantly, and he continued, “I can open the outer door; however, I cannot open the inner vault door. I believe you will find the items you seek are within the inner vault door.”
She took a step closer to him and smiled as she caressed his face, “Open the outer door. Leave the inner door to me.”
He nodded, but before he could get to work, his cell phone began to ring. Xenia motioned for him to answer it, and he did, “Hello?”
“This is Captain Clark of the police department. Please put Miss Sareena Night on the phone.”
The manager handed the phone to Xenia, “It-It’s for you.”
Xenia took the phone in her hand. Before she answered it, she turned to the manager, “Get to work on this door. When I return, we may need to close it quickly. Be a good boy for me and ready yourself for my return.”
The manager shook his head ‘yes’ as Xenia walked off bringing the phone up to her ear.
“To whom do I have the pleasure of speaking to?” Xenia walked past the row of hostages that remained and stood looking out the front floor-to-ceiling window. The rain had turned to a torrential downpour, lightning strikes were frequent, and thunder rumbled the ground below.
“This is Captain Clark of the police department. We can meet your demands whatever they may be. We only ask that you release the hostages in good faith.”N0v3lRealm was the platform where this chapter was initially revealed on N0v3l.B1n.
Xenia’s smile grew even wider, “Meet my demands whatever they may be? I like the sound of that. You have a deal.”
Captain Clark was caught off guard, “A deal? I am happy to hear that you will be releasing the hostages unharmed. Can you give me more details on our side of the deal, so that we may fulfill it to the best of our abilities?”
Xenia hung up the phone and continued to smile as she looked out the window and said to herself, “My demands whatever they may be. I demand death.”
She then twirled around briskly and barked at the hostages, “You are all free to go!”
The hostages looked at one another with utmost confusion as Xenia stormed off heading up the stairs to the second level.
She shouted down from the second floor, “Leave now! And be quick if you wish to live. The plaza below is soon to be a warzone.”
The hostages wasted no time after hearing her words. They all stood up and ran out the shattered front door, down the steps, and towards the line of police cars and SWAT vehicles.
Xenia held the smoking rocket launcher on her shoulder as she looked on to a now eerily quiet plaza. However, the silence was broken as the whirring of three helicopters could be heard coming over the buildings ahead.
Without wasting a second, she fired her remaining two rockets taking out two of the helicopters in a fiery blaze as they crashed down to the plaza below. The third helicopter landed on the roof, and four tactical officers began their assault from the roof where they gained access to the building.
Xenia smiled to herself as she dropped the rocket launcher back into a portal, “How fun. They are bringing the party to me.”
She summoned a 12-guage automatic shotgun and prepared to welcome her guests. The power flickered as the storm raged. She lurked around dark corners taking quiet steps until the first tactical officer rounded a corner only to meet the direct blast of her shotgun to his chest. Although the officer wore body armor, the point-blank range fire tore through his armor and hollowed out his chest.
Xenia continued to quietly and stealthily lurk as she approached the second and third officers from behind. She came to within three feet and blasted her shotgun into the head of one of the officers completely taking his head off. The other turned around only to be met with a shotgun blast to the front of his face taking his head off as well.
The fourth officer rounded a corner ten feet away and immediately began firing at Xenia. She returned fire as she dodged behind a wall. Her shotgun blast caught the final officer in the shoulder knocking him to the ground.
She heard his cries of pain and walked out into the open to meet him, “Does it hurt? I love when men hurt so good for me.”
The officer looked up at her in her sexy black and shiny pvc dress and feared for his life. She forced the barrel of her shotgun into his mouth and promptly pulled the trigger causing his head to explode all over the floor and surrounding furniture.
She had shuddered breath of pleasure; however, her enjoyment was cut short as she heard heavy footsteps from across the plaza.
She approached the blown out second-floor windows and saw three Holy Knights in full armor approaching armed with only their swords.
She smiled to herself, “Oh fun. Things have escalated to an imperial matter. Perfect.”
The three knights scoffed at the carnage as they crossed the plaza, “I can’t believe St. Michael sent us, members of his personal Holy Guard, to deal with such trifle matters.”
Another knight chuckled, “Reports of miniguns, rockets, sniper rifles... no reports of ki.”
The third knight laughed outright, “No ki? Then this opponent will be no fun.”
They approached the steps leading up to the bank to find a woman in a drop-dead sexy dress wielding a pistol. She looked down at them noticing their armor insignia, “Members of the Holy Guard? Have I really been that bad of a girl?”
The lead knight smiled up at her, “We would agree that you haven’t been that bad. Let us take care of this matter, so we may return to our real duties.”
Another knight whispered, “Do we have to kill her? She looks fun.”
Xenia summoned a sword in her right hand and held her pistol in her left hand, “Oh I am fun.”
The lead knight whispered to the other knights, “Careful. She can use ki.”
Xenia laughed after hearing his words, “I can. But you won’t mind if I strictly use my sword and pistol, will you?”
The lead knight laughed as he and the other knights began to ascend the stairs, “Be my guest. It’s your funeral.”
