**Who Really Rules The World - PART IV**

*Credits: Discord Users Zeaks & ModestyBlaise*

Vick Rolands: -back at the party, Bruce is back and the girls don't even notice but he appears to me- man, where have you been? Anaelle is running the place bankrupt and I really hated what you did to me there. -I say as one of the girls lay her head on my chest- you're so sweet Vick, I can stay like this forever. -Bruce smiles then he interrupts them- I’m sorry, ladies but my friend and I have to go now. -one of the girls- oh, take me with you, I will be your pet if I have to -then she started to meow acting like a drunk cat. Bruce laughs- sorry little kitty, maybe we'll come back for you -as he pulls me a little and I walk with him- Bruce ... that was so rude, look at them all sad and... -he interrupts me- and will forget about everything that happened today since they are dead drunk. Vick, you just worry too much. -Anaelle talking to the manger- so what, I got to 7 million 652 thousands and 487 dollars all fair and square and I will have every penny of them one way or the other -the manager replies- but miss ... -she interrupts- don't butt miss me, you know the quality of people in here, you should be prepared for it. I want them cash, NOW -as she finished she noticed we are leaving- hey guys, wait a second, I will cash out and be right there -she walks as a mysterious hulking man shows to the manager- looks like you've been outplayed in your own game, her money is on me. let's just say, you're in my debt now.

Modesty Blaise: -Also at that party, suddenly one red hair man and a whole squad of armed men arrive, getting Bruce and Vick inside and start shooting to the air. Everyone starts shouting as the men come in. Their leader, Red Grant, starts talking- “We are truly sorry about all this, ladies and gentlemen. We are not here for a massacre. That would be pretty unforgiven due to the times we’re living at...” -Grant winks at the first lady who he saws, which is Anaelle- “No, ladies and gentlemen, we are here to ensure your place at the new world order, courtesy of Lady Janet...” -The United States police department arrives to the scene, and after many starts thinking they are here for rescuing, it turns out that they are with them. Grant takes out his iPad- “We are leaving with the following individuals... I’m going to start from bottom to top. That’s with...Wayne, Bruce” -Grant looks at him, then his men go for him. He looks at Vick to calm him down, and then after some names, he says- “Rolands, Vick. And his delicious sister, Ana...” -Grant looks at Anaelle with a pervert look as they are bringing her to him, with her resisting to them-

Vick Rolands: -as we got dragged to a van, our arms wrapped not to resist, we are being stacked next to each other’s. Anaelle is kicking the other guys around her for being too close to her thighs even though they didn't touch her then she shouts at Grant- hey your asshole, at least tell us where are you taking us. -grant stays silent. I talk to Grant- hey, you there. you know who I am? -he replies- I just said your name in ther... -I interrupt him- not by name, idiot. my position. I’m Janet's fiancée, I demand to see her right away. -Bruce stares at me, the kind of stare saying "no"-

Modesty Blaise: -Grant looks at Vick, turns pervert to his sister, then right back to him- “I know who you are. I know who all of you are. That’s why we are all going with her, as she requested...” -Grant and his team suddenly put a mask, and right after that one gas is spread across the van, making all not just to sleep, but to have a horrible nightmare, all of them except Bruce, who already has treated that with an old villain, and falls asleep only. With Anaelle, her dream starts on that moment where Modesty points her weapon down stopping herself of killing Ludovic Rolands. Anaelle takes the gun as before, and shoots. Now, the gun has no bullets, and Ludovic starts laughing at her. He then takes out a weapon and kills Blaise instantly, then Ethan Hunt, then her beloved brother. On the other side, Vick is dreaming on his house. He walks through it, and at one couch is there, his father waiting for him patiently- “It’s not easy to get rid of me, right son?” -Ludovic stands up- “I bring a friend; I hope you don’t mind about it...” -Lady Janet then appears behind Vick- “You’ve been a bad rich boy...” -Ludovic starts laughing at Vick- “What Modesty do for you was really noble. Now, leaving her on my care? Really? Is that how much you care about your friends? Remember Suzan Brown? Or John Wick?” -As Janet keeps saying all this, Ludovic is getting a good and loud laugh over Vick-

Vick Rolands: -I reply to them in the dream, starting with Ludovic- you're not getting in my head again, you're dead, laugh all you want. as for you -I point to Janet- you don't dare talk about friendship, you betrayed the one that literally raised you, at least I didn't betray any of my friends or family, no matter how bad they are -Anaelle on the other hand, she is struggling with the fact that her father is killing everyone she loves- no, father stop ... omg, Vick, why did you do that? he was the one to carry your name -she keeps hitting him on his chest as he just laughs and her nightmare gets in a loop. Bruce wakes up sooner than everyone. he looks around at people, some peed themselves, some are screaming but not waking, Anaelle crying and I seem calm, just sleeping but sweating more than I should-

Modesty Blaise: -Bruce then realized that Red Grant is awake and eating some food. He stands up and goes with him- “Are you hungry, Mr. Wayne?” -Grant invites Wayne to take a seat just looking at one chair. He does so. Grant continues eating, and stops- “Our world is gonna change very soon, Mr. Wayne...” -Bruce stares at Grant- “where are we flying to?” -asks Wayne- “North Korea” -answers Red Grant, shortly and coldly enough for ending up the conversation. Bruce goes back with Vick and Anaelle, keeping an eye on them as the plane is entering to North Korean’s air space. Meanwhile, at Janet’s boat, Baron Samedi arrives with Blaise and the Kraken henchmen he got there. Lady Janet is getting ready for her war plan, and sees Modesty getting in- “Once again, Mod. Once again, face to face...” -Janet smiles at Modesty, and Modesty smiles at her as well- -It’s always a pleasure...” -says Modesty. Janet turns at Samedi, then at one computer as she deploys all the information for Modesty to see- “In less than 12 hours, my boat will send one missile to a British boat. The secret weapon about this little friend we’re standing at is that gets invisible under government radars, all courtesy of Firth Industries as you may know...” -Modesty keeps looking at Janet, silently, hearing what she has to say- “North Korea will have an excuse to attack the British, of course. And... as I am the first line of advice for the British PM, Caroline Farthing...” -Modesty interrupts her- “You’ll get your bloody war, yes, I get it...” -Modesty looks at Janet, madly. Janet goes close as she whispers to Blaise...- “You know... I even had the chance to fuck Willie Garvin before... that....” -Janet smiles at her, then looks at Samedi- “Take her off... for now. I still want her to see how the whole world burns...” -Samedi obeys, and gets Modesty out, just as agent Brand is looking all this from upstairs, deadly silently-

Vick Rolands: -the plane landed in north Korea’s airport. everyone is still sleeping except Bruce. an hour later, everyone is awake. the fear is still on some people as they keep seeing hallucinations, some claim to see ghosts, others monsters, ... etc. Anaelle just keeps saying- they are all dead, my friends and family -I am still keeping calm, Bruce doesn't get it how am I so calm all the time, he comes to me- Vick, are you alright? -he whispers, I look at him- for now, yes, gets harder to resist though but I got a taste of it not long ago, I should be fine for long enough -Bruce nods as we are all being escorted to the boat where you and Janet are and Janet welcomes us- welcome to the most important people on earth. you might not understand me now, but I assure you, you will soon enough-

Modesty Blaise: -William Brandt sees how Red Grant is getting all that people in- “Eh... Gala... we may have a problem here...” -After silently shooting at some random henchmen, Gala says- “Care to explain?” -Brandt looks that one of those people is Bruce Wayne himself- “We... may not be able to sink this bloody thing at all...” -Gala Brand rolls her eyes, then she sees all those people getting in Lady Janet’s office. Meanwhile, Baron Samedi is getting Modesty on one chair tied up, as he gets a briefcase open, full of serpents- “Just like the Cobra’s Trap, right Big?” -Modesty smiles at him, as he laughs out loud, scaring Modesty for real. At the other side of the boat, Grant gets close to Janet’s ear, and whispers something. Janet just nods, and some of her men go and take Anaelle by her arm, not letting her run-

Vick Rolands: -I look at them taking her then I look at Janet- really? your fiancée’s sister given away as fuck meat just like that? -then I look at grant- mark my words, touch her and I will split you in half, I swear it. -Bruce looks at me as he is against killing but I ignore him. grant just laughs and licks Anaelle's neck as a message to me that I can't touch him, I look at Janet- he's dead. -I say with a stubborn tone. Bruce remains calm even though he doesn't agree with me-

Modesty Blaise: “He is...” -Janet gets a gun on Grant’s head, as Wayne is getting nervous- “just that you need to accept joining my new world, Mr. Rolands. In that case, I can get rid of him in a snap. But it’s entirely up to you...” -Janet smiles evilly at Vick. Gala Brand is now running silently all over the boat, posting bombs across the place- “Brandt, I need you to take them out of there. I’ll see you at Janet’s office. Got it?” -Brandt now rolls his eyes, as he says while running in... - “Got it!” -Meanwhile, Samedi is getting his yellow serpent closer to Modesty, but Modesty takes force and stands up with all and chair, as she turns the chair to Samedi and breaks it against him. The serpent gets free, and Baron Samedi takes out a big knife. Both are getting ready for fighting each other now-

Vick Rolands: -I look at Janet- didn't I just call you fiancée? isn't that acceptance enough? but wait, don't shoot him. I swore I will cut him in half if he touched my sister, he challenged that, I want to fulfill it. get me a knife. -I say as Bruce eyes widen, he didn't know I can be like this but then he remembered the gas I was exposed to and my women weakness combined with my sister being the one in danger. I go to the extreme-

Modesty Blaise: -Janet keeps smiling, and secretly Grant is smiling too, then they can’t contain themselves from laughing at Vick and get off that act- “Do you really, really think I was gonna shoot him? Because of you? Pffft...” -Lady Janet keeps laughing, and Red Grant gets his hand over Anaelle’s arm, getting her off the room with him, as another henchman points at Vick for preventing an accident- “I have to be honest with you...” -Janet walks at Vick- “I do all this of inviting you merely for fun. Even with all your fortune, with a war started by the British, the whole thing will go down for ordinary markets, as yours, and it will rise for markets as mine. I just... wanted to see Modesty’s face when she learned how I sex with her two love interests...” -Janet laughs loudly- “Can you imagine that? Can you?” -asks Lady Janet, and turns to Bruce Wayne, then to the rest of the people- “For the other people on here, you all have a choice...” -Lady Janet turns, giving all her back- “Get raped and or die...” -Janet turns once more- “or join me and succeed, my well known entrepreneurs!”

Vick Rolands: -that was the last straw for me holding my sanity. but instead of getting fear, it was replaced with a totally emotionless face. as I look at red grant taking Anaelle as she is crying still about her nightmare that she is totally alone and all her friends and family are dead not aware about what’s in store for her. then I lock eyes with Janet keeping the same stone face and not looking away. a second later everyone with comms in their ears, that included red grant, gala brand, William Brandt, baron Samedi and the other henchmen on the boat felt like their brains are going to explode all of a sudden, only Janet was fast enough to remove her comms from her ear as Bruce used the opportunity to cut his hands free with a technique he knows and starts knocking the henchmen either unconscious or off the boat. all that thanks to the device he secured earlier. I just walked to where red grant took Anaelle still keeping the stone face-

Modesty Blaise: -As Baron Samedi is burning in pain, Modesty takes the opportunity and throws him at the serpents. She looks at the door, seeing how Grant is dealing with his ear pain while grabbing Anaelle. Modesty hurries herself, takes another chair and throws it at Grant, getting out of the room with Red Grant unconscious, and turns to the other side watching how Vick was getting closer. Blaise goes back to Anaelle- “Are you alright? Anaelle?” -Anaelle realizes Modesty is there, and because of her nightmares, she instantly hugs her. Meanwhile, Lady Janet as the super hacker she is, gets the comms turned off, making Bruce Wayne to get over number, and making some henchmen to caught Gala Brand and William Brandt off guard. They take both spies to Janet’s office-

Vick Rolands: -I reach grant and I take his knife and cut my hands free then look at him, then when the pain stops, he gets his balance back and ready to fight, I look at you- modesty, take Anaelle out please, this is going to be very ugly. -I tell you in an almost monotone as red grant laughs a little- you think you can take me? bring it on rich boy. -outside, Bruce is being overwhelmed but he managed to break some henchmen parts, again, not killing but he can't land as much precision hits as when they were paralyzed, eventually, he got pinned down not having his iconic gadgets with him to help him as batman-

Modesty Blaise: “Vick... Vick...” -says Modesty, trying to get his attention- “Just... Vick!” -as Modesty don’t succeed on it, she takes Grant’s weapon which has falls from him, and shoots at his stomach- “Happy?” -Modesty helps him to stand up, and throws the weapon at Vick- “Take your sister, and get the hell out of here...” -says Modesty with an impatient tone- “Now!” -Blaise gets really mad, so she goes on the opposite direction back to Janet’s office, always pointing her gun to the front. Meanwhile, Brandt and Brand are entering to the office. Lady Janet and her people are getting Wayne tied up, and then she turns at both agents- “Well well well... agent Brand from the MI6 and agent Brandt from the IMF... just the strawberry that my cake was missing... hmm...” -says Janet to them, as she looks at 008’s watch- “A beauty, isn’t it?” -Janet takes it off her arm, and presses one button, turning off the bombs- “I created this tech, for Q Branch... how’s him, by the way?” -says Janet nearly laughing at Gala-

Vick Rolands: -I am still having my complete focus on grant, he is injured and weakened Anaelle in the corner of the room, I didn't even notice her and I get down next to grant whispering to him- I swore -I put the knife between his legs- this way, you will feel it for longer as I move the knife up strongly but slowly, my face never changed as I look him in the eyes then the whole boat could hear him screaming. Anaelle imagining a monster looking close to a praying mantis cutting a man in half and drinking his blood, she ran out in a random direction and fell in the water, swimming as fast and far as she could. Bruce is beat and tied up he lost a lot of his energy but he still faked passing out to give himself some time to rest- oh dear -says lady Janet- looks like I missed another dissection -she says casually as she hears grant screaming-

Modesty Blaise: -Lady Janet goes out of the room, as she immediately sees Modesty waiting out for her, pointing a gun, as Brandt and Gala knock off her guards, and 008 takes her watch back as William knocks the rest of the henchmen. He takes the pulse of Bruce and learns he is still alive, so he frees him out. Modesty keeps pointing at Janet- “I guess this is it, Janet...” -Modesty says, happy of getting to that moment. Lady Janet just looks at her, and with all simplicity says a big secret she was hidden all this time...- “Willie Garvin... he’s alive” -Modesty goes in shock, as Lady Janet just walks on the other way, laughing, and gets her escape ticket-

Vick Rolands: -Bruce stands up exhausted, pushing Brandt away and runs to me, in hopes he could save red grant but it was too late, by the time he reached me. grant was split in half already, blood everywhere and me laying next to him covered in blood, unconscious and with a very low pulse due to overloading myself mentally and physically for this act. Bruce mistook me for dead, jumping in the water to go after Anaelle. she was sitting at the shore, recovering slowly from the effect of the fear toxin and shivering from both cold and fear. she immediately hugs Bruce when she saw him-

Modesty Blaise: -William and Gala get out of the room soon after Bruce, with all the rich kidnapped people following them. As there were too many people, they don’t notice how Modesty was just laying down there, unconscious about the news. They successfully take the people safe. Meanwhile, Vick can see at the distance how someone is laying down there too, as the bomb is about to explode the entire place. As no one is seeing, the Baron Samedi, luckily alive, is escaping out of there as well-

Vick Rolands: -I look at the figure, barely able to see or even move a finger then I notice a skirt. my women weakness kicking in, I had to make sure this woman is off that boat as I could hear the ticking of the bomb’s timers all over. I crawl to you, I can't even recognize your face but I know you're a woman- apologies, lady -I say in a barely heard voice as I push you dropping you from the boat into the water and fall right after you, I relax while falling in the water. the timer on the boat drops to 0 and it explodes-

Modesty Blaise: -as Modesty is drowning for not swimming, she is getting some old memories back from Willie Garvin, then a quick recap of her adventures while Vick Rolands is present shows up as Modesty reacts, and swims to the top of the ocean, seeing Vick Rolands floating there. She takes him out swimming to his sister, who is sitting next to Bruce Wayne now. Without Vick knowing, Modesty leaves to help William and Gala get the rich people out of there, as the mission was accomplished. A few days later, in London, Modesty is hanging out on her pool as she hears the sound of her plane, which was taken by James Bond to get Hannibal back to US, keeping Modesty from it to travel North Korea. Bond lands, and Modesty goes with him. Neither of them says a word, they just smile each other as they walk to her house for talking. Few hours later, at the other side of London, Vick Rolands wakes up, in a hospital, where Bruce Wayne is waiting for him to wake up, not taking his hand apart from Anaelle-

Vick Rolands: -I look around, then I see Bruce and Anaelle- Ana, you're ok, good and Bruce ... -I stay silent- he had to die, I swore and it was crushing me inside. had he hurt Ana, I would never forgive myself, or anyone really. and Janet ... is she? -Bruce answers- dead, no, she escaped -I ask- so MB is dead? -Anaelle replies- no, she's alive as well -I look at them- wow, you're trying to tell me that the only one that died is the one I killed? -they both nod- shit ... that feels bad. -I pause a little- Bruce, can you do me a favor? -he looks at me silently, waiting- give her wings -I say as I point to Anaelle with my head. back at Las Vegas, the mysterious hulking man appears again, showing his face to be kingpin- good, very good, Janet took quite the blow, so did modesty and the Rolands. this is the perfect time. -he smirks evilly making a small deep laugh-

Modesty Blaise: -Meanwhile, at an unknown location, a woman called Jane Fox arrive to the scene, in which Lady Janet is seen, taking a deep breath about all her failure- “La... Lady Janet?” -Janet turns to Fox, quite angry- “Is he ready?” “he is, indeed, ma’am...” -the scene shows Willie Garvin, putting a mask on his face as Janet talks...- “Then send... the Taskmaster”

*THIS IS THE END OF WHO REALLY RULES THE WORLD...*
