Chapter 24

The last gang shows up...
Psychosis Overwhelmed
A few Rogues made their way into one of the alleys, where they hid in order to avoid conflict. However, they suddenly heard the booming voice of a certain gang leader.
"Where the fuck are you punks?! I'm not afraid of smashing your faces in with my fists!" Big Moe called out.
Three of the four Rogues took notice and ran out of the alley, but the last one stood there when he saw the Boppers's leader appear before him.
"Your pansy friends weren't man enough to face me! You're not gonna be so lucky, either!" Big Moe said, before the sole Rogue attempted to give him a few punches to the chest.
However, the Boppers's leader delivered a flurry of punches, and slammed the Rogue against the wall. Suddenly, several more Boppers entered the scene, with Boxcar telling him, "Shit, man, you beat us to him first. But at least Cochise owes us for the help, otherwise we'd do him in ourselves."
Highscore and Pacman, as well as a few other Gamers, found several Rogues looking for them, and took them by surprise by having the Gamers's leader throw a beer bottle onto the street. The Rogues took notice and came after them, and a four-on-five match between the Gamers and Rogues, respectively, would commence.
The first two Rogues were dealing with the two unnamed Gamers, and the first Rogue came straight at the first Gamer and stabbed him in the stomach, before he was greeted by a punch to the head by the second Gamer. The second Gamer then took his knife, and then lunged at the second Rogue, who tried to punch him in the face, but the Gamer stabbed him in the arm and elbow-kicked him in the jaw.
The last three Rogues were now dealing with Highscore and Pacman, and the first of the three attempted to attack Pacman, but was given a few punches to the chest before being uppercutted. The second Rogue then snuck up on Highscore from behind and put him in a chokehold.
"FUCK! Get him off...shit!!" Highscore yelled.
Pacman was about to attack the second Rogue, but was punched in the face by the third Rogue, and he took out his knife, and was about to stab the Gamer. However, a man in a purple suit and a woman in a dress of the same color came in to take the stage.
Slattery immediately when after the Rogue attempting to kill Pacman, by grabbing him from behind and snapping his neck. Delores, on the other hand, helped the Gamer up and helped him get the remaining Rogue off of Highscore.
Pacman then delivered a headbutt onto the remaining Rogue, and he hit the ground reeling in pain from the attack. "Thanks for the help, we needed that." Highscore told Slattery.
"Of course. You need any help, just say the word." the Moons's leader replied with a small smirk.
After dealing with most of Psychosis's men, Swan and the Warriors were this close to taking down the Rogues's leader. However, he had kicked Vermin in the stomach, before receiving a punch to the head by Ajax.
Psychosis stumbled to the ground before he got up, and took out a pistol -- the very same pistol that Luther used to kill Cyrus -- and aimed it straight at Swan, but the Warriors's leader was able to kick the gun out of his hand.
"What the fuck?!" Psychosis asked with an infuriated expression.
"Your plan's backfired on you. Take your friends and get the fuck out, now." Swan told him.
Through clenched teeth, Psychosis said, "You haven't seen the last of me, Swan...someday we'll get allies of our own, and when we meet again...you and your friends are gonna be cryin' 'Uncle'!"
The Rogues's leader, along with the surviving members of the Rogues then retreated, making their way back to the subway, and back to Hell's Kitchen.
"You guys!" Lisa's voice called out as she and Amy approached the Warriors. "Amy and I were trapped in a pawn shop, and two Rogues came in to attack us, but Hoagie and Berlin helped us out...and we got to see the Baseball Furies and Vixens in person!" she exclaimed.
"Thank god you're allright, Lisa." Rembrandt said. "Are the other Moons allright?"
"Yeah, they managed to fight their way out of their situations." Lisa replied.
Then, Slattery made his way to the group, and told Swan, "Your skills are just as superior as mine. I'm impressed."
"Good. Cause we need you and the Gamers if the Rogues ever come back. Give the other gangs that volunteered to help out their thanks." the Warriors's leader replied, allowing the man in purple to nod his approval.
"Let's get back to Sea Gate, I need a hot bath!" Amy exclaimed as she, Lisa and Slattery went to fetch the rest of the Moons.
A moment later, Highscore and Pacman came across the Warriors, and Swan told them, "Not bad for a group of kids that frequent the arcades around town."
"No problem at all. We'll be there for you if you need our help." Highscore said with a smile, before the Gamers, Moons, and the rest of the gangs returned to their turfs.
At the Warriors's turf, the entire group were resting up after a long battle, although one of them was tapping her fingers on the wall as she leaned against it. Surely, she would congratulate Swan on their victory, but how would he respond?
Mercy then approached Swan and said, "Hey, you did good out there. I'm impressed. Say, would you do me a big favor for me now that you got rid of those assholes for now?"
The Warriors's leader immediately rubbed the back of the neck before going into deep thought. It had indeed been a while since they got it on last time, but he knew that his agenda with the Rogues was keeping him busy.
"We got the Rogues to deal with for the next few weeks, so chances are we ain't gonna get any privacy together." Swan replied.
"C'mon, promise me you'd give me that big chance? We won't regret it, at all." Mercy asked with a cheeky grin.
Letting out a deep breath, Swan shook his head before replying with, "Fine." However, his response was seemingly half-hearted.
"Thanks." Mercy said before she sat back on the couch and smiled triumphantly. It's really gonna happen, she thought to herself, I know it is.
