Before the two souls could touch Zack, he disappeared, leaving the remnant of a afterimage.

"He's gone," Eden stated the obvious.

"Yeah," said Efriet.

Suddenly, Eden received a deadly and powerful uppercut in his stomach from Zack who had reappeared. Salvia flied out of his mouth and his eyes were slowly rolling back.

Efriet quickly approached Zack with his hands ablaze, ready to defend his brother. But he was too slow as Zack delivered a swift back kick into his face, sending him flying backwards.

"Son of a bitch," Eden groaned in anger. "This guy isn't using any skills and he's so fast."

Efriet's distraction was enough for him to deliver an attack of his own. He surrounded his hands into blades of ice and slashed after Zack's neck.

Zack, unfortunately for both Eden and Efriet, but fortunate for Zack, saw this attack in the nick of time and swiftly evaded it by leaning backwards. The next second, a shadow developed in his left hand, and a dark blade emerged.

Zack softly whispered to himself. "Let me show you a real attack."

He then disappeared again, leaving another afterimage. The next second, a thousand cuts appeared all over on Eden's body. His head, chest, arms and legs, while cyan mist was flowing from all of the cuts. And he didn't even realize it until the pain kicked in.

"Arghhh!" he yelled in agony as he clenched his left arm. Soon the wounds healed.

Zack reappeared behind Eden and was about to deliver a fatal blow to the back of his head with his dagger. But before he could do so, a tread of fire came towards him. He dodged it, barely, by shifting his neck to the right.

"Got ya," said Efriet calmly to himself.

Eden exclaimed on the top of his lungs, opposite of what Efriet did. "GOT YOU FUCKER!!"

Eden slashed at Zack's neck. This time, Zack had to block with his arms, which received a heavy flesh wound that bled; slowly however.

"Argh," Zack groaned.

Efriet then appeared behind Zack. His two fingers were on fire as he brushed them on his opponents back.

"Run!" Efriet exclaimed to his brother.

The next second, both Efriet and Eden ran away from Zack as fast as they could as if he was a ticking bomb.

Zack saw this and readied himself to give chase to Ede . "Where the hell do you tw-!?"

He was then caught in an explosion that emerged from his back. The explosion was so large that it caught some of the neighboring buildings and destroyed them.

"Is he dead?" Eden asked himself.

His inquiry was then answered by a trail of flames exiting the explosion at light speed and curling behind him.

"Of course not," Eden said as he quickly turned around.

He managed to parry an incoming stab from Zack, who was in the air. But couldn't block the second attack what he received after Zack landed on his feet which was aimed at his stomach. His stomach was then given a light cut.

Zack attire was burnt, leaving only his pants intact and his well defined physique to be shown off. His hat now gone, showed his bright brown eyes, medium length dreads and dark skin.

Zack said with a hint of malice, "You mofo's are really getting on my nerves today."

Efriet once again appeared to save Eden. He clasped his hands together as they set ablaze. He then released a concentrated blast of fire at Zack. It was a thousand times better than what a high powered flamethrower could display.

"Take this," said Efriet calmly.

But once again, Zack displayed his feats of speed as he easily dodged the attack by disappearing and reappearing infront of Efriet. He then launched a powerful attack with his attack at Efriet, aiming for his face.

But he couldn't move forward.

"Huh?" Zack inquired.

He looked down at his feet, which were completely immobilized by ice what glued him to ground. He then turned his gaze towards Eden who was laughing to himself.

"Ha! Who is the slow poke now," said Eden.

Efriet then commented. "Seeing as how fast you are, we decided to take your speed out of the equation. Literally."

Efriet's right hand was then set on fire as he aimed at Zack's legs.

"Not a chance. It's just another half-assed ploy, " Zack said with a hint of disgust and loathe. "You two bastards think you could defeat me?"

Time suddenly stopped for two seconds or even more. It was either that or Eden, Efriet and everything surrounding them just went still and quiet for two seconds. In that time, Eden's head was cut off and Zack disappeared from his restraints.

Efriet, who could now move, was sweating heavily as if he haf just took a morning jog. "What happened?"

"You could say that again," said Eden's decapitated head on the ground.

Efriet rushed over to Eden, picked up his head and placed it on to his body. But not before he twisted it around after placing it on his neck.

"Dude," Eden simply said as he clenched his spinning head which was now attached.

"Sorry."

Eden got up to his feet with the help of Efriet.

He asked, "Got any idea where he went?"

"No. For some reason there is a blank moment in my mind," Efriet responded.

"Me too. I don't even remember how my head was cut off."

A sinister presence then emerged. Eden could hear it coming towards him - fast. He then covered his hands in ice blades and blocked a slash that about to cut of Efriet's head.

"Where did that come from?" Efriet asked calmly, seemingly not concerned?

"Idk-" Eden was then cut off by another attack that sent him flying backwards.

Efriet was mildly confused by this, but then figured it out. "Oh, his invisible. Probably for a couple of minutes at least."

His body then burst into flames, sending a shockwave all over. Soon, Zack visible once again. Eden took advantage of this.

"You thought you could stay hidden forever?" Eden asked as he hacked at Zack.

Zack easily dodged and evaded his strikes. But before he could counter attack, his legs were then sweep. He fell on the ground and Eden was about to stab him. Zack rolled away from the attack and quickly recovered his stance. But before he could get a chance to breathe, Efriet planted his hand in to Zack's back which then lit into flames.

"Ahhh!!" he yelled in agony.

He then swinged his dagger at Efriet and cut off his arm, but was then tackle to the ground by Eden. He began to unleash a barrage of stabs at Zack, who dodged all of them. He then kicked off Eden but was then grabbed by Efriet from behind, who gave him a supplex him.

Zack was now getting tired of their antics. "Damnit!!"

He disappeared from out of Efriet's grasped and millions of cuts appeared on Efriet's body. Before Eden could aid his brother, Zack planted his leg into Eden's abdomen, making him stagger.

"Why the hell am I so pissed today!?" Zack yelled at the top of breathe. "First community services and meeting a asshole!"

He then pointed a finger at Eden. "And you fuckers are just making it worse!"

"Why the hell would you even work with that bastard. Isn't it clear that his a monster? Even I could find that about him and even meet him for a good minute."

Eden then got up to his feet. "What is this guy yapping about?"

Suddenly, line of flames pierced Zack chest. Eden then ran up to him and freezed his arms and legs in mere moments takes to distraction.

"Argh," Zack groaned under his breath. "AAAAAHHHHHH!!"

"Should we kill him?" Eden asked with a sarcastic tune.

"..." Efriet was quiet while thinking about the situation at hand. "Yeah."

Seeing this, Eden was quite shock. "Huh? You were seriously considering that?"

"..Yeah," Efriet simply said as his hands lit into flames.

He shot a tread of flames at Zack's head, which took it off completely. Then another at his two arms and legs.

"Uhh, I didn't think you'd do all of that," said Eden.

"Yeah," said Efriet as he disappeared into orange mist.

"Is yeah all he can say?" Eden inquired to himself as he saw his brother vanish.

He then looked at Zack's dissected body and said, "So much for the S-teir assassin."

After that, Eden then disappeared into a cyan mist.
