Guard My House(Job/Solo)

With his third step Raiden would push off hard to begin his dash once he seen two out of the five opponents pick up the pace. He knew what the two were, probes to show Raidens skill but this would be yet another mistake. Raiden had no plans on letting things go to mere exchanges..no the blows he plan to set up them would be deadly indeed. With his enhanced speed Raiden would gain the upper hand on one of his attackers. Taken by surprised the man would frantically try to punch Raiden with his left fist. Raiden would swiftly unsheathe his blade upward to slash the man from prostate to sternum.

The other hand mange to unsheathe his weapon at the sight of his comrades demise and prepared to enter close combat with Raiden. Glancing over to the remain three that have yet to enter combat Raiden shifted his body and his blade to the main attacker. The man was cautious, being sure to not simply run in after what happen to his friend, with that Raiden took the time to sheathe his blade and widen his stance a bit. The man inched closer, closer but Raiden did not move and merely kept his stance.

Once the bandit felt he was close enough he would come with a faint with a downward strike but then shift with a two handed cross slash. Raiden would unsheathe his blade hard with another upward slash to meet the bandits blade. However with such force Raiden put behind his own blade the bandits sword would break and with that Raiden would come with a angle cut down the thugs left shoulder and another to the midsection. Both cuts were clean and dropped his opponent without fail.

The other three enemies unsheathe they're blades as the second man falls dead to the ground. By the expression on they're faces it would seem they were angry, no matter it would all be over soon as Raiden whipped his blade out to the right to get the traces of blood off of it before slowly sheathing the blade. Turning towards them Raiden could see that the men were ready to pounce but we still a bit hesitant. Yess..he had now shown them what to fear but now it was time to provoke them just a bit.

Raiden turned to them with a slight grin a he held the sheathed Last Whisper in his left hand."What happened? I mean really...you come here uninvited and yet you bring me this trash to waste my time. Well? Do you all plan to simply stand there or shall I come to you?"One of the thugs became furious but his voice quivered just a little with the first word."Shut you mouth, you wont be some happy when team two comes from the front of the house and -" The thief closest to the one talking quickly smacked him in the back of the head."O another team you say...well I guess I better kill you quickly. It would be so rude for me to keep them waiting after the warm welcome you guys received."

With that last remark they could take no more and all three began to charge the white haired mage with the devilish grin.

Raidens grin quickly reverted back to its impassive ways as he watched the men run towards him. He would think that they would know this is a bad idea but then again there is always strength in numbers. Raidens body began to glow a light blue aura, like a veil of electrical energy had covered his body as the men came closer and closer. They spread out a little with one attack from the left,another on the right and the last a frontal assault. Raiden waited just a bit more to lead the men into a false sense of security that there attack were sure to meet they're intended target.

Once the men were close enough Raiden would disappear with blinding speed from his former position with each man simply striking air. Raiden would appear behind them one by one deeply slashing each twice on the back to sever spinal cords. Each would begin to fall to the ground but Raiden had no time to wait as he rushed from the back towards the front with his further enhanced speed. Coming around the corner he could see five men making they're way to the front door. This would be easy for none of them knew his powers nor knew if he was dead or not due to they're comrades. Taking them by surprise was a sure thing.

Swiftly sheathing his blade Raiden prepared to take them down in one fell swoop. With his luck he wouldn't wake any of the neighbors and just a little property damage.

Spell used:

With a mad dash Raiden began his assault quickly unsheathing his blade at alarming speed to cut four out of the five bandits once but the very last one being cut twice but stopping. Once he stopped his dash he began to slowly sheathe his blade being the closest bandit to him notice his presence. The thug whistle to the others to get they're attention with that all of them turn to face Raiden."What?!They didn't kill'em, fine just cut off his head and keep it moving."With those very words the clinging sound of Raidens blade being fully shield echo just a little in the quiet night.

That very sound however would signal splatters of blood to appearing on the ground and screams of pain from the thieves as most dropped to the ground in pain while the very last one died. Raiden turned to them, his right hand over the hilt of his blade with the sheathe parallel above the waist. He began to walk threw the grass, killing off the injured ones one by one until all the screaming ceased. Raiden hopes of not waking the neighbors however failed as lights from candles or lacrima began to turn on with silhouettes of people scurrying threw they're homes.

The village butcher was the first one on the scene. Not squeamish by blood he looked upon the scene with a grim yet unsurprising face."Would you mind getting the authorities for me please." The man would simply nod to Raidens words and leave off for the barracks.

Whipping his sword out to the right to lash off some of the blood, Raiden would then sheathe his blade and await the arrival of the knights. Once they finally showed Raiden explained once more the situation with the rune knights being a bit agitated that they had to show up more then once just to pick up bodies. Nevertheless once they're job was done Raiden would make his way into the house to clean himself up. He didn't think anyone else would show up tonight and if they did man would they be in for it now that Raiden was irritated at a all time high from all the contact he had with the authorities.

Taking a shower, wash and hanging his cloths Raiden was more then hungry by this time it was maybe one in the morning and he found himself with a lite fireplace while cooking his last steak from the butcher on the stove with assorted veggies to boot. This mission had been rather long but the perks of a home made Raiden realize that he didn't have a place to call such. Yeah most call the guild they're home but some people wish to have they're own space and Raiden was one of them.

After cooking his meal Raiden ponder what kind of home he would pursue over his meal once again pulling out the bottle of wine from the night before. Yes it would indeed be something like this but maybe not so large and less thieves. The thoughts continued as he finished his meal, cleaned up after himself and prepared for bed once putting out the fireplace.

After some sleep and the rise of the sun Raiden waited until his cloths were dry before making his rounds about the house to be sure he had recovered all of his things and cleaned accordingly, he would not accept a reputation of being a slob. Once things were settle and while bring his sack down stairs he could hear the sound of the front door unlock. With that he dropped his sack and prepared his blade only to see that it was the owner of the home.

After the two exchange a few words Raiden was paid and went on his way.
