Enforcers 172 Everyone Splits Up More

"Please... Just kill me."

"Where's the fun in-"

"Kaen," Jester said sternly. "You've had your fun picking on someone weaker than you. Now kill her while we still have the chance."

Kaen seemed to grumble for a moment but stood up adjusting his fox mask. "As you wish boss." He pointed his finger at Heather. "I'll leave your body behind so your father can see. And since you've been a lot of fun I'll make it painless. This next attack will incinerate your brain."

Heather looked up slowly staring back up at the man.

"Begone. Pure ash-"

There was a flash of green, as a green blade stabbed through Kaen's chest!

"Oww! Son of a Bitch!" The man screamed out dropping to his knees. He ripped the green blade out as flames covered the massive hole. They burned the wound shut as he hissed out in pain. "Alright, you asshole! I know that was you, Okane!"

Off to the side Bunt, the second in command was snorting. "I can't believe you let your guard down like that... And to think you're always going on about how your power is superior to ours." Bunt shrugged as Kaen began to wobbly stand up.

"D... Dad?" Heather croaked out as she stared where the blades had come from. 

Slowly Okane came into the wound. Several coins floated around him as he held several green blades up.

"Ahh, Okane." The Jester said calmly. "How are you friend?"

"Skip the fake talk." He hissed out. He bent down picking his daughter and the remote up. A thick white barrier made of his Mantra covered the both of them as he slowly began to back up. "We both know why you're here."

The Jester clicked his tongue as he shrugged. "It really is a shame you know. I knew you were on that bastards Snow's team but I thought your loyalty lied with me. And yet it seems you chose him over me-"

"Wrong."

"...What?"

"I had no intention of giving either of you the remote," Okane said with a flat face. "In fact if I'm honest I hate both groups, and think all of you are batshit insane, religious nutjobs, who want to end the world for next to no reason. Honestly, I could give a fuck who wins in your group's little disagreement. This remote was for the Enforcers. You see I do not concern myself with any side. I will simply work for whichever side offers the best protection for what I hold dear." 

The Jester was silent for a moment. This was the first time any of his subordinates had ever talked back to him. "...Kaen. Kill them."

Kaen raised his hand up sending out a massive ball of flames.

Okane threw his blade forward as several of the coins smashed into the roof above him.

"Damn." Kaen cursed dodging the blade. "I can't burn either of them alive while they have their Mantra on. It negates my attacks... I'll need to turn my own on-"

Okane didn't bother to wait as he simply jumped through the new and ran off with his daughter.

"That cheating asshole! He's running away!"

Meanwhile...

A few floors above...

"What? Its a five one three. We got-" Irene didn't have time to react as Max suddenly smashed his leg into her side throwing her back. As soon as she moved the Samurai appeared where she had been only to slash his blade out in empty air since she was no longer there.

'He reacted to my movement and kicked her out of the way... This kid is different from the rests... He might be a real problem.' One thought seeing the cold look in Max's eyes as the teen raised his hand up.

Max's hand glowed as a stream of lava poured out washing over the man, only for him to vanish with a loud crack flash stepping back over to the two Organization members.

Then.

A second finally passed by as Irene hit the ground and everyone else reacted to Max's kick. 

"Why would you hit my darling prince!" Reine shouted in horror helping Irene back up.

"That was close," Max said flatly staring back at One. "He's at least light speed. Damn. Such a pain. The only person I know who can deal with speedsters this fast, without activating their Equation, is that dumbass Hero... Guess we're holding out until he gets here."

"I never saw him move..." Irene muttered rubbing at her neck with wide eyes. "My head could have..."

Reine reached out placing a hand on Irene's shoulder steadying the girl.

"Well, we're screwed..." Schutz muttered.

"I never saw Hero Senpai..."

"Been lopped off in a single attack. Yep. Next time don't piss off the bad guys!" Max yelled smacking her over the head. He took a deep breath as he turned back to the three men. "New plan. I'm about to do the impossible." He smirked. "Or. As that dumbass says. I'm about to become a version of myself that can don the impossible."

"What's the plan?" Irene asked. "What can we do?"

"I'm about to force you four to unlock your Mantra."

"Wait?" Irene said with a frown. "Can you do that?"

"I have absolutely no God damn clue..." Max said shrugging. "But I can at the very least try..."

"I feel like this is going to end poorly..." All four of the Enforcers said to Max. All four gave him a flat look as he shrugged. 

Mr. Snow, and One, watched them with a small amount of curiosity. 

"This could be interesting." Snow said letting out a small laugh. "It could also help out later down the line." He nodded his head as he began to pull off one of his white gloves. "I've made up my mind. One. Go after Okane. He'll need assistance. I shall play with my prey."

"As you wish sir." The Samurai bowed before suddenly vanishing. 

One began to walk forward as he held his hand out. Slowly snow began to slowly seep from his hand.

"That ability..." Irene muttered.

"You there boy." Mr. Snow said. "Yiu wouldn't happen to be a Glacious would you?"

"...And what if I am?"

"It has been to long, since I met a member of my family!" He announced thrusting his arm forward and sending out a tidal wave of snow.

Meanwhile...

"The reason you never heard of Chandler Kronos, is because he's dead. I killed him." Katrina said slowly. "Chandler Kronos is dead."

None of them were able to think about that for very long as the entire city suddenly shook with a massive boom!

A ball of flame shot up towards the sky in a massive orange ball of heat that ripped sky apart.

"This... This energy feels..." Kitsune muttered as his eyes slowly went wide. "No... I must be wrong..."

"That sounds like our Hero..." Ken muttered. "Great..."

"I totally called it though!" Kitsune announced. 

"Well, crap..."

Katrina bit her lip as she began to think.

"Okay..." She let out a sigh. "Shit... Alright. With all this Chaos it maybe just a tiny bit dangerous for me to fight a guy who can turn me into a corpse with one attack."

"You think..." Jackson said flatly.

"So! In this case... Jackson. Please come with me... Alexander... Please... I know you're I'm stupid so you aren't going to listen when I tell you to take the kids back, and I know they're stupid so they're not gonna listen when I tell them to go back... So please. Watch them. And keep them safe."

"Holy crap she's giving us permission to do something dangerous!" Kitsune said with wide eyes.

"Oh Kitsune. You always have permission to do dangerous, life-threatening things." Jackson said nodding.

"I'll keep them safe," Alexander promised. "You have my word."

Meanwhile...

At the train station...

The train slowly pulled to a stop as the doors opened. Slowly a blind teen carrying a cane, and a briefcase walked out. 

"Finally here..." Cloud said. He turned back to the open doors of the train as he smiled. "Well? Are you coming... Dawson?"

And that was when Dawson Blight, Aka, the Red Demon stepped out of the train, finally stepping out into the light ever since Ren's death...

"Let's kick some Organization ass..."
