Zeris heard his name. His street name. He'd been laying down. Catching a few z's. No pun intended. And then his name shot through the night air. The power behind the code name he'd given her...was strong. He bolted up and dressed in his pants alone. No time for overshirt. Now he was just tight as hell velvet top and out his "home" aka workstation he went. He was fast. Bolting barefoot...that's right he'd not even put on shoes. And he was running faster than if hell just broke loose.<br/><br/>He appears two seconds before she passed out. His words would echo in the darkness of her subconscious mind. "Oh? Really. Then apparently you don't know me too well. You don't mess with my girl. Nor my friend. Now...pay backs gonna be a bitch. You two gonna be singing high note opera when I'm through with you." his tone pure street. Nothing nice in his tone. When she passed out sounds would echo through the air.<br/><br/>In the real world she had left due to passing out....<br/><br/>Zeris smirks and punches both assholes so hard in the face not only did their noses break...they flew backwards a few feet. He picks Zaira up and carries her limp form over his left shoulder. Holding her to his form with one arm. And he jumps into the air. His eyes closed and when they open...ANYONE who knew of him would know...he was beyond royally pissed off. His eyes were a bloody crimson hue.<br/><br/>"Now...I'm going to show you gentlemen...how to be...a gentleman." he says. Smirking. "Though you two are gonna need new names...when I'm through. If you survive that is." he kicks them in the gut. His free hand grabs one man up by his throat as he spiral spin kicks the second hard into the break wall. "Stay there. I'll get to you in a minute." he says in a purely demonic tone. He forcefully slams the man by his through deeply into the pavement.<br/><br/>And pushes hard. Stomping down hard over and over again. The man's nether regions taking LOTS of damage. His screams turned high pitched and then cut off. He'd knocked him out by pressing his foot against his throat til he passed out. "One down...one to go." he says darkly. And kicks his underlings asses easily. Then walks menacingly towards the second in command. "Your turn you little bitch." he says darkly.<br/><br/>What happened next happened to fast to be seen. The man pulled a gun and shot at Z-Ray. And missed. It was as if he was shooting at a lightning strike fast bullet matrix style dodging machine. He moved too fast even for the machine guns constant ammo shootings. He killed this one. As a bullet nearly grazed Kaira. He snapped him into teeny tiny pieces. Internally at least. He writhed shuddered and fell to pieces due to the demonic strength and power beneath the single fist to the gut.<br/><br/>He stands now in the center of the twenty men. "That is why...you don't mess...with the Street Prince. They call me Z-Ray for a reason boys. You just learned one reason why." he then calms and runs back to his hideout. NO ONE dared to go there. They knew he'd kill them in a way that NO ONE would EVER know they'd died of suspcious causes. He lays her upon his pillows of velvet cloth and shakes her. "Hey...Zai-chan...wake up. Please wake up and be alright." he says in a caring tone.
