"Pierson POV"
Pierson decided to take a break for a second and walk around the city for a bit
He saw a father out with his teenage son
Pierson Had the thought
Pierson: am I too hard on Zenez
He watched as the father and his son entered a video game store
Pierson decided he'd enter too
The father and the son noticed Pierson following him and said
Father: you alright man?
Pierson: uh... yeah. Sorry if it looks like I'm following you
Son: I'm gonna use the bathroom
Father: alright bud take your time
An awkward silence entered the building and the father said
Father: do you have any kids of your own?
Pierson: yeah... I have a son
Father: what's his name? My kids name is Andrew
Pierson: Zenez
Father: that's a nice name
The store went quiet again
Father: it's amazing isn't it?
Pierson: I guess... I'm an asshole to that kid and I'm not proud of it
Father: you can still change. I'm assuming your here to do just that.
Pierson: yeah... maybe... I don't really know what I'm doing
Father: just apologize and pray
Pierson: thanks
Father: no problem
The man put his hand out and said
Daniel: Daniel
Pierson put his hand out too and they shook hands
Pierson: Pierson
They exchanged contact info and Pierson left
"Kogu POV"
Argus: master, we have located a man named Nagaki, we think you would like to speak to him
Kogu: I have no need to do business with a human
Argus: this one is different, if you decide to talk to him you may be able to kill that one boy that's causing you trouble
Kogu: fine, bring him to me
"Zenez POV"
Seiji: ok there are 3 entrances. The side, a tunnel a mile away from the building and a highly dangerous climb up to a door on the side of a building
Aku: what are the teams?
Seiji: that's not up to me
Aku: well I'm going with Magi
Zenez: I'll take Sora
Ku: if there's 3 entrances me and Ko can go with you Seiji
Ko: the I guess we're set
Zenez: well hold on, what's the plan?
Seiji: the guards have certain walk patterns that they are assigned to go on I'll send you all the walk patterns on your phones
We can't all go together it'd be too suspicious I'll send you the locations we should all go to
Zenez: alright let's go
The group all followed directions to the location Seiji sent
Seiji: here it is
Seiji said over a radio
They saw a huge building at least 50 stories tall
Zenez: man does every bad guy have to have a huge tower
Aku: shouldn't he be lying low? I'd imagine the cops would've swarmed this place already
Seiji: he owns the cops
Zenez: of course he does
Seiji: alright, me Ko & Ku will go through the front because I know the patterns better than all of you
Aku: me and Magi will go through the tunnel
Zenez: I guess me and Sora will go on the climb
Seiji: do not fall you will certainly die
Zenez: got it
Seiji: we'll all meet up in the building then head to Nagaki's office
Aku: affirmative
Everyone turned their radios off and went on their way
As Zenez and Sora made their way to the climbing spot Sora said
Sora: you should've said something earlier
Zenez: what do you mean
Sora: I mean if you said something earlier we wouldn't have to scale a building
Zenez: we're not gonna fall relax
When they got to the location Zenez handed Sora 2 hooks
Sora: so we have to jump across this building and somehow put this into the wall and climb up?
Zenez: trust me it's easy I do it on my free time
Sora: you promise?
Zenez: I swear on my life
Sora: so how do I do it?
Zenez: copy what I do
Zenez backed up and ran as fast as he could he leaped across the building and slammed his hook into the wall
The hook cut into the wall like a knife does to butter
He then put the other hook higher on the wall and repeated the process
Zenez looked at Sora and said
Zenez: you can do this
Sora took a deep breath and ran as fast as she could the adrenaline pumping through her veins
She put both hooks and they both went into the wall
Zenez: See, easy right?
Sora: you think this is easy?
Zenez: yes now continue climbing
Sora: how?
Zenez: take one hook out and put it higher up then the other and continue use your feet as leverage
Sora slowly made her way up the building
Right as she was about to reach the top the hook snapped
Zenez grabbed Soras arm before she could fall and he pulled her up
Zenez: you alright?
Sora hugged him
Zenez: while I'd love to hug you we need to keep moving
Sora: right let's go
"Aku POV"
The pair made their way further and further into the tunnel until they reached a grate leading into a room they assumed to be part of the building
Aku: I think we're in
Magi: yeah I think your right
They found themselves in a room that looked like a middle school locker room
They saw a door at the end of the room and opened it slowly
Aku pulled out his gun just in case
When they opened the door the lights were on
There was a bunch of armed men and people manufacturing guns
At the top of the opposite side of the room there was a railing
And they saw Zenez and Sora
Zenez waved at them
Aku and Magi slowly closed the door behind them
"Zenez POV"
Zenez whispered to Sora
Zenez: how are we gonna get them to us safely?
Sora: I have a plan but it could be risky
Zenez: I don't think we have many options go for it
Sora yelled at the top of her lungs
Sora: FIRE FIRE EVERYONE EVACUATE
The armed men and workers shuffled their way out of the room
After everyone left Zenez
Zenez: great job Sora I wouldn't have thought of that
Zenez said with a smile
Sora blushed as a reply
Zenez and Sora jumped down and walked to Aku and Magi
Aku: so now we just need the other 3
Sora: I hope they're ok
Zenez: did you not see what Seiji did in the museum? Their fine
"Seiji POV"
After entering by the side Seiji, Ku and Ko were shot at immediately
Ku: I thought you knew their patterns
Seiji: I do, they shouldn't be out here right now
Ko: how are we gonna get out of this
Seiji saw
Gas cans and fire extinguishers were littered throughout the room
Seiji: Ku
Ku looked up at him
Seiji: if you shoot that fire extinguisher on the right it'll cause a chain reaction killing everyone
Ko: EVERYONE?
Seiji: everyone besides us
Ku: alright
Ku shot the fire extinguisher which causes every single explosive to explode killing all the people shooting at them
"Zenez POV"
BOOM
Zenez: what the hell was that?
Aku: was that an explosion?
Seiji, Ku & Ko ran into the room where everyone was
Ku: oh hey guys
He said while still heavily breathing
Aku: what the fuck did you guys do?
Ko: killed some people
Zenez: figures, Seiji where's this Nagaki guy I just wanna go home and sleep
Seiji: follow me, I'll show you
