The Mask Of Insight: A Shadowed Detective

Episode 1: you thought you were faster than me

As the sun rise, night falls, a gentleman waking up from bed early in the morning, ready to take a shower, a fine looking young man with hunter eyes, well fit and healthy. He first hit the shower a cold shower, reflecting on his past life but ready to give in and fight in search for his parents... ugh! Here he was in the mirror looking at an all different human being in the free time he's Leo, in action, Shadow and Leo

Ready in his morning outfit, to do a hundred squat, a hundred pushups a hundred sit-ups, he does this everyday... Not forgetting the neighborhood he always greets almost everyone just to keep in touch, busy doing some jogging in calm and simple street. As always a girl comes to do some exercise with him, a breathtaking, but he doesn't mind. "Good morning neighbor,"she greeted him. Her name is Samantha always in a jovial mood, she didn't care if he didn't respond.

But what she kept in mind is that, he is a good human being no how he reacts. Surprisingly he took left, a road which he never used before... Samantha curiously looked at him as he took the path. The moment she wanted to follow him, he disappeared out no where. In her mind filled with kindness, I wonder where he ran off to... any way let me continue with my morning routine. He looked around and saw she was gone, quickly continued with his routine. "That was a close call she wouldn't have left me," brawler exclaimed.

After some good hours of exercises, brawler knows duty calls, as he heard on the news about missing items in some people's lovely humble home. Now he puts on a black suit and black sunglasses, like a true detective, ready to strike. At a distance he smiled, this should be easy, before he could even reach at the crime scene, shadow knows the cause and who did it without wasting time.

He arrived at the crime scene and tried to enter, but one of the police men asked, "where do you think you are going sir? " Calmly he didn't say nor do anything after a second he already behind the police man's back. Seeing this he shivered in fear, what... what was that? Who is this guy. The police man slowly looking behind, he's already in without making a sound. Inside others tried to stop him as well, hey! How did you get in here? Explain yourself. The police men in sweat, points guns at shadow.

He wasn't even scared or panicking, he softly spoke out with a fierce voice, I'm not the enemy, yet you point a gun at me, claiming to be a man of justice while you can't even tell the difference between good or bad. The people you are looking for are not that far, just a kilometer away from here... these people are about seven. You thought you are faster than I.

Chapter 2:Annoying computer riot , shadow a monster

The police man shouted," put your hands where I can see them!!" Now... Don't try to act smart with me. Shadow in a calm and relaxed position, why would I try to act smart, when I'm already smarter. You said put your hands where you can see them, yet they are right here. The police men in short, trembling seeing man who's in a calm and fearless posture not even scared of a gun.

Quickly, shadow used a simple trick on the police men. Hey! Look up there. But they didn't fall for it, so you think you can trick us, that won't work, one police man exclaimed. No I'm serious look a giant snake, shadow scared them. Immediately without wasting time they looked up and nothing was there, looking back where the mysterious man was, no where to found. Dammit we fell his trick.

Standing outside on the rooftop, in a dramatic post, it is shadow, what a bunch of losers, how can fell for that simple trick.. uh! The oldest trick in book. In simple terms one would have looked up and rest keep their eyes me. Alright time is running out, shadow with his smart watch... hey riot, that's the name of the computer. give the location of seven who robbed a house right now, make it quick I'm busy with something.

"Are you sure sir?"riot asked. What do you mean by that riot? Well sir in reading you have no appointments today, I wonder what things you're doing. Riot are you arguing me? No sir... sorry sir. Location scan complete, one kilometer away from here, they are chilling, drinking beer, dancing... Alright riot I think I get the point. Sure Sir.

Swish, shadow reached out for a coin in his pockets. In his heart, head I go with my motorcycle, tale on foot. swing...flip, oh! It looks like tale. But sir why don't you just go with your motorcycle or... here you go again asking endless questions, shadow speaking in a low, relaxed voice. In a flash he's jumping buildings like nothing ,swinging like Spiderman, a little child so him... Look mummy, look, it's batman. The mother didn't pay much attention. luckily shadow on his left was a subway train 🚉.

On top of the train, now this is... what I call free transport, before he could finish. Riot the computer responded, but sir I thought you're going to use your feet to reach there. Shadow nodded... uh! Riot do you want me to turn you off again? Riot didn't stop. Calculating, right now you are moving at exactly thirty meters per minute 🚝, are you done now? Not quite right sir. He continued after some time, he reached his destination, jumping off the train like a ninja, still exhausted after being annoyed by riot.

Standing outside the bar not saying anything, looking at the window, the other friend in the bar, noticed something strange about the man standing outside stirring at them. Ah... boss, yes, yes, what... in a drunk voice he answered. The other friend was scared, suspiciously looking at window, there's a man outside strangely looking at us. The boss responded, I think you had too much to... too much to drink, here have some more. The other friend looked back and there was no trace of him, looking around he's already inside the bar. Uhm... boss that's him right there. Wait who now? That guy in black, haha he laughed.

The gangster boss stepped forward and asked, hey you... yes you I'm talking to you, who do you think you are? Trying to spy me and my boys. Who's giving you the right? Answer me you punk, don't you have ears. Shadow remained calm not saying a word, that annoyed the goons. See this...this is a gun, I can blow your head off. The all laughed, but only one didn't it's like he knew shadow's intentions. Guys I don't think we should be doing that, others spoke out, hey! Johnny don't you want to have some? Come, on don't be a chicken.

They all surrounded him with different guns. Which should we start with a shotgun or what? Shadow remained still. So you don't want to say anything now, putting on a black suit and some sunglasses to scare us. Reaching for shadows glasses, in a flash he grabbed his hand while squeezing it. Instantly he threw punches and kicks sending the enemies flying, hit the walls. People ran out of the bar screaming, the boss tried to fight back, but was not much for the mask of insight. Others getting sticks to hit him, he dodged without breaking a sweat. Trashing them in a blink of an eye.

The gangster boss saw an opportunity to reach out for the gun and pointed at shadow. He continued saying I don't know who you are and what you want with us, so stop what you are doing now immediately, or I won't hesitate to shoot. Shadow fearlessly responded, then do it. Not knowing, shadow's hand already reached the on the breast side of the gangster, released technique no one knows. He fell unconscious.

The others tried to beg for mercy. Please don't kill us... Please give us it won't happen again. I know it won't, because you won't be here. They cried in fear of what will happen to them. Unfortunately nothing happened to them, he just tied them up to their tracks, leaving a note saying, A shadowed detective. You're welcome to pick up the trash. He left like nothing had happened, in a slow motion. On his way home, riot continued, sir were you not to hard on them? Cause one of them just couldn't hold it in and... I know what happened riot, you know what I'm tired not running not fighting but you were annoying me. please send me my motorcycle quickly and shutdown.

A little while later the police, agents and FBI, arrived to the goons location. Asking them questions, who did this to you? We don't know him, but we saw him putting on a black suit and black sunglasses. The FBI boss, touching his ching thinking, Mm mm... so this is the same person the police officers told earlier. A shadowed detective, he smiled and laughed, boys we got some work to do. Let's find this shadow at any cost, he can't be humiliating me like this... sir...yes... sir.

They drove off with cool, black car in line like a parade. Soldiers following behind, FBI boss... Jordan smiled, I'll find you shadow, no matter where you are. Cars sounding police alarms 🚨.

Home in his room in the afternoon, thinking about what to eat and yet didn't know what to prepare for himself. thinking of turning on riot, he pulsed for a moment and thought, he's not gonna stop talking. Anyway, computer on....back online, sir you are already home? yes riot, yes I'm home,anymore questions. false sir.

Good because I want to eat something brawler said calmly. Well sir what you need is a simple meal, some energy giving food, proteins and vitamins, this you add a little more green for your brain. Sure thing Mr riot will do.

After a good fresh meal, he laid down to relax .it didn't even take a minute, a phone call from a long old friend, Jin. Hello!! In a smooth tender voice brawler answered the phone, hey my old buddy what's up, JIn exclaimed. I have never been better my friend and you... oh you know just doing great, Jin feeling better to hear his best friend on the phone. So I'm guessing you already have... you know, the one and only. Brawler responded, no I don't have Jin, are you done cracking jokes now. Hey chill out I'm coming to visit you, and I'm on my way, not to mention I'm bringing a guest...brawler, sure why not that would be fun.

sir I do understand your friend is coming to visit but you should have thought twice agreeing to that, riot. why do you say that it's not like Something would go wrong right? Unfortunately, you will face challenges keeping a secret from your friend, it will be difficult for you to be brawler, and shadow at the same time. brawler had a thought, you're right riot, this is a problem and we need make it go away. We, who's we? You are on your own sir, entering rest mode update. you can't run away from me riot!! brawler exclaimed, Mm mm.

Chapter 3: I can explain

Alright brawler, it's like you are on your own now, great, just great. In a worried state, brawler nodded.. Argh, this is gonna be tough, not for me though. He harried to clean up his house, removing anything that involves shadow,in preparation of his friend.

This is so tiresome, I don't know what I have got myself into to. brawler quickly rushed to the kitchen to have some water...door bell rings, almost choked with water and coughed. what?! they are already here I wish riot would help, but he's in his update mode.

Brawler wondering what riot is updating, mm mm classic riot. reaching out for the door, it's jin, with a wide smile on his face.

My friend, so this is where you are hiding ah? Please Jin come in, let's talk inside. Hey now did you forget? Brawler asked, "forget what? " Didn't I tell you about my guest.

Oh yeah, brawler remembered, so where is this guest you keep on yapping about? Come in, Jin called out. A beautiful, calm and well maintained presence was felt by brawler, who is this?

There she is, a gorgeous, light colored girl entering the room with her beautiful long dark long hair, not leaving out her well-structured body, that of an athlete.

Brawler looked at her and nothing happened to him, still calm and freely positioned himself. Jin was surprised to see how his friend didn't react after seeing Sasha.

Not knowing brawler has gone through a test of time, trained both his mind and soul, so a girl to come through him has to be smart in the mind.

Brawler greeted her, and she responded with a good attitude not even tracing a clue that her mind has already been read by shadow.

Jin continued with his cracking of jokes. Wow! this place isn't worse than my... He did not even fish talking. Sasha stirred at him, when are you going to stop wining Jin, sometimes learn to be silent.

Alright! Alright! Come down princess are you done talking are as well.

Brawler nodded his head, this is going to be a long day, I miss riot this people are worse than riot.

Hey! Brawler, what have you prepared for us? Nothing much, I didn't know what to prepare for you guys so, nothing. what... Jin in disbelief. Are you kidding me right now, I'm so hungry, his stomach growling like a lion.

Tiger, that's a nickname for Jin. I'm just joking, in the kitchen you will find something. Now you're talking, Jin exclaimed. Sasha troubled in her mind with thoughts on how brawler carried himself.

he's so hot just look at him,spoke with shyness. His hair, wow.

But as always brawler in his way of mood, not talking that much. Because a good mind reader like him, he knows what surrounds the room.

A step ahead of everyone's thinking, but he just left the room, went to Jin in the kitchen, not saying a word.

Inside he didn't find anything, Jin wasn't there, but where could he be? Didn't seem panicked but troubled. Oh! no this is bad! horrible.

The floor was wide open, then remembered the security check, riot was still updating, that means all things will malfunction.

I just have to keep an eye on the two, let me find Jin, In an instant he jumped in the floor trap, to save Jin.

It was dark inside, Jin with he's naked eyes couldn't see a thing, not sure of what was down there, calling out for help in fear and bumped into brawler and a screaming was heard from Sasha.

Brawler turned on the light and saw Jin... Confused with what he has seen. Brawler said calmly, jin I can explain.
