《Rise of the Henchman》Chapter 6: Courthouse Destruction
Advertisement
Currently I’m in downtown of Angel Grove destroying the courthouse that is undergoing maintenance. From what I’ve been able to gather the local politician embezzled and he is trying to cover his tracks by hiring us. After asking around I’ve found out this is one of the most common request.
Star Garnet “Ok everyone, we will start by destroying the west corridor and then move east until the Guardians show up, now disperse.”
With Star Garnets orders we began the demolition. Jet and I are the uppermost portion and are taking out our equipment. We are using jackhammers, that we took from the maintenance crew, to drill through a stone pillar in order to weaken the structure, create a hole in the pillar, and place explosives in it. The bombs are gonna be remotely detonated when we leave the building. In order to do the most destruction, when the guardians come we will fight them until Claymore finishes the job and tells us to pull out.
Me and Jet are on our third pillar when they finally arrive.
“Stop this pointless destruction, evil doers!” Cried Red
After their entrance the henchmen and I split up and start our fights. I am swinging my fists as fast as I can but I am not even close to hitting Yellow. Jet on the other hand is really pressing Yellow, twice she has had to use her quick burst to back away from Jet. I look around at the others fighting and besides the senior henchmen, they are struggling like me to an extent. Feeling relieved that Jet is just really good. I try to disrupt Yellow by throwing some rocks at her face I also throw a kick at her, which was able to connect. After she groaned, she used her speed to back away.

Jet “Good job.”
Jasper “That was way too easy.”
“Like I told you before she is not that good at fighting.”
After the brief talk, Black charges from Jets blind spot and I pull her out of the way and take the brunt of the hit, sending me to the wall. I have the wind knocked out of me and before Black could follow-up, Jet struck him and was able to push him off.
Jet screamed at the other team “What the hell are you doing letting Black blindside us!?”
Heliodor “Sorry, he suddenly just charged and we couldn’t contain him.”
As they were talking, I see Black is acting very concerned about Yellow. Looks like they are closer than just partners. As I get up, we start the joint fighting like we practiced and this continued for about ten minutes before Claymore gave the retreat orders. We rushed out of the building and got into our vehicle and fled. Once we were at the safe zone the bombs went off and about ¼ the building went down. Gray dust clouds covered the courthouse and its courtyard.

The Unnoticed Dungeon
A newly formed dungeon core awakes with no memory of who or what he was. In fact, he just found out that he died. He has no idea or when or how he came to pass, and now finds himself being forced to start all over as a dungeon core. Worse yet, he isn't even your average run of the mill dungeon. No, the Overseers, whoever they are, have designated him to be an experimental core. This means he doesn't have to play by all the rules, the bad news is that if the core oversteps his boundaries as a dungeon core too far he's more than dead; he's erased. Now he has to struggle to figure out what kind of dungeon he wants to be, all the while very aware that he can't play it safe. The overseers don't want safe, they want lines redrawn and limits reset. The question is, can he do it and survive? He asks, because he overstepped before he even made it to his new world.
