One man, a dark elf, had a slightly puzzled look. The other, a dark elemental, nodded. "Yeah, get your gear on. They'll be here soon."

The dark elf looked to the guard for a second, then back to Aiolos, saying something undecipherable in german.

The other guard nodded. "You look greener than grass. First day with these guys?" The guard asked as he took a power stance. not to intimidated Aiolos, but to look tough for when the people they were meeting would arrive.

In the distance, there was already a bright set of headlights visible.

"Yeah I doubt it..." The guard scoffed. He didn't seem to be wanting to talk much more. The headlights were drawing closer and eventually a different car pulled up. A silver sedan, quite luxurious too. Four men stepped out of the car, three guards and one man in full three piece suit.

The man in the suit approached their own man, shook his hand, and started to talk. German words were exchanged and for a bit it seemed like nothing was going wrong here. That was until the two gathered at the trunk of the SUV. Flipping it open, a muffled gunshot immediately sounded, coming from within the SUV's hatchback. The bullet hit the man in suit straight in the chest, followed by a second shot. Within seconds, everyone was drawing guns. The fellow bodyguard grabbing their VIP and shoving his head low while using his own body to protect him. More gunshots came from the hatchback at automatic speed, hailing down on the enemy guards.

Aiolos wasn't as nimble as the rest it seemed, as he would be the last to raise his weapon. If not for the fire being laid down from the back of the SUV, these men might have focussed on Aiolos and his fellow guard instead.

Aiolos was a horrible shot, but at least his flies did well. All three of the guards were being pummeled by the flies, while whoever was in the trunk of the SUV kept unloading on them. One of the bullets Aiolos shot hit their marks, but that was about it.

The friendly bodyguard hauled the VIP into the back seat of the SUV. As the man fell into the back seat, the bodyguard turned around the open car door, using it as cover while he fired his own pistol. One of the guards was already felled.

The flies were incredibly ineffective at forming any kind of defence as the bullets passed straight through. not that it was necessary at this point. But distracting seemed to be a forte of theirs.

Unlike his bullets, the magic was spot on, obliterating the attacker and grinding both armour and flesh to pulp.

Very few flies still remained. The VIP remained unharmed. It would look like his mission had been a success.

"Another day in the shadow." The fellow guard mumbled as he drove them all off and away. The area was very suddenly quiet. The mufflers had done their job as not a single siren could be heard. The guard drove for whatever had been relayed to his smartphone. "Looks like we're in the clear. Easy work today. Far easier than normal."

"Well..." The bodyguard looked in the rear view mirror for a moment before focussing on the road once more. "Normally it's a lot more silent, I'll admit. This kind of loud work isn't Oiche's style. Guess that's why they hired your extra muscle."

The car came to a halt alongside some street. The VIP in the back had recollected himself by now and was holding out a few bills to Aiolos. About 200 euros in total.

"Looks like this is your stop. Our mutual friend is bound to message you in the future, though I wouldn't recommend you wait for a call."
