The sudden blast was somewhat unexpected, as was the sight of a large group of mercenaries under Alistaire Shaw's control. Shinobi had bought the best of the best (or so he thought) when it came to guards and hitmen. They were trained in case something like this would happen, but it did not change the fact that it was an unimaginable scenario for them all!

They started to swarm the invaders. The weak fell quickly, and the strong continued to battle for a few minutes longer before falling. The guards seemed to come out of the woodwork, giving Alisatire, his shape-shifters, his mercenaries, and Alisa a run for their money. But it was painfully obvious that they were over-powered, despite the fact there were more of them compared to Alistaire's group. This fact just made them more dangerous, as they no longer had anything to lose.
