Akashiri stood on his feet and sucked his teeth. He pulled out his sword and shifted his feet into the Iron Stance. The Clean-up Guy chuckled. The Clean up Guy pulled out two batons and rush towards Akashiri. Akashiri evaded the attack and roundhouse him in the face, which made him stagger down to the ground. While he was on the ground, Cross came up behind him and placed him in a headlock. The mercenary easily slipped out of Cross's headlock and turned around, punching him so hard in his chest, some of his ribs were crushed. Cross vomited up blood and crashed into a haystack. The Clean-up Guy mainly had his attention focused on Akashiri, since he was the one who had the power to open rifts and portals to other dimensions. He rushed towards Akashiri and unsuccessfully tried to attack Akashiri again, but Akashirir simply avoided the attack and scoffed. He managed to get the upper hand and stab The Clean-up Guy in the chest. The blade punctured through his heart. Akashiri could hear him wheezing and groaning in pain. He pulled off his mask and revealed his face. The Clean-up Guy was an old man who had lots of scars. He missing an eye and had scars all over his face. Akashiri placed his sword up by The Cleanup Guy's face and asked" Who do you work for and why did you blow up our ship?" The Cleanup Guy didn't bother to answer.
Instead, he spat chunks of blood into Akashiri's face. " Why the hell should you anything?" Tch, I don't know you or the person who hired me." I was just hired for a good sum of money and received some kind of experimental drug." Akashiri took the sword away from The Cleanup Guy's neck, and said: Do you have the tube or container where the drug was contained in?" The Cleanup Guy slowly reached into his pocket and pulled out a flash bomb which blinded everyone except Cross who was recovering from his injuries. The Cleanup Guy stood on his feet and started running as fast as he could. Cross stood on his feet and chased after him. He tried to fire a metallic spike at his back but The Cleanup Guy manage to dodge it without looking. He slid down a hill and went into the forest, hiding in a tall tree. He activated some buttons on his wrist and turned invisible. Even though he was invisible, Cross who still be able to detect him. Cross quickly detected him and ripped the tree the Cleanup Guy hid in out of the ground. When the tree smacked on the ground, dirt and debris surrounded the area. Cross quickly enhanced his vision and spotted The Cleanup Guy. The tree fell on his legs and crushed them like twigs. This meant he couldn't move. Cross hopped over the tree and confronted The Clean-up Guy, who started coughing up blood. " Alright, alright!" Gah!" You win!" You fucking win!" All you had to do was just talk." Now, look at you." The Cleanup Guy reached into his pocket and pulled out a bomb. I will say it a million times." I will never talk." The Cleanup Guy pulled the pin on his grenade. Shit!" yelled Cross. Cross quickly ran away as the fiery explosion occurred. Nearby trees were destroyed.
