I lit my cig and took a drag blowing out smoke up at Cy’s face. I walked around him and then came to face him. “What the fuck are you doing getting in the way of my business, kid? Shouldn’t you be running a package or something?”

Cy grimaced shaking his head. “I gave my word to my big brother Ice and that fucker that owns the realm behind me. You daughter killed one his archetypes. The Fucker asked for the Jackal be let go and given to them as payment to keep the peace between our realm and his.”

I looked him up and down. “You think your god or something now? Is that it?!” I asked him.

Cy shook his head. “No. I’m just trying to keep the peace and avoid starting up the Frost war again.”

I rolled my eyes and looked at the portal. I pointed a finger at it. “That fucker is going to come back around here. You think you can keep him safe from me burning his ass when I see him on sight?”

Cy glared at my profile. “I’m not protecting that asshole. But, you can’t burn him. He and the others from the other invaders are off-limits. It’s a peace agreement.”

I smiled. “Hmm. Okay. I get you little brother. I get you. Invader Jackals can go run wild in my backyard because you say so?” I said and started chuckling at him as he stared down at me. I stared at him. “Are you done?”

Cy nodded. “I’m done.”

I pointed at the portal. “Destroy that portal along with every other portal in this realm. I’m done dealing negotiating with these invading assholes.”

Cy stared at me. “Sergio! I can’t do that man.”

I smiled. “Oh yeah. You can’t do that can you. Looks like you tied yourself up pretty good and now your no damn use to anybody. Alright. Listen up, kid. You ain’t my Daddy. You ain’t running shit in this realm. This is my realm. The Elders run this shit little brother. We just allow you to live here. You ain’t even old enough to talk back to your own kind yet. So don’t go wagging your dick around me when your balls haven’t dropped just yet. Give me your damn sword.”

“Ah! Man. This shit sucks!” Cy sighed but he held out his sword.

The sword changed as I took it in my hand to my liking. I nodded. “You better get going back to city. Your warrior days are over. Leave your elders to protect our own backyard. Don’t worry. You won’t have to break your word but I ain’t having no shit head Jackal or invader piece of shit fucking around in my backyard. I’m fixing to clear up all this misunderstanding right now and you can believe that shit. Now get!”

Cy put his hands in his pockets and turned and started walking back toward the city. He disappeared as the other Blood Hounds got on their bikes. “Head to the other portals and destroy every single one of them.”

The Blood Hounds slapped their fists to their chests and then started up their bikes and headed off. I turned toward the portal holding the sword end toward the portal and fire and lightning launched out of the blade hitting the portal and it was destroyed on contact. I smiled. It took a bit of time. But, somehow. I got almost everything I wanted.
