After getting their equipment and weapons quickly sorted out, Val and Scotch anxiously stared at Sean and Jenna, who were both watching the other two get ready. Cain had gone on ahead to try and stop Richi, and the two girls also wanted to bolt after him. "You guys ready?" Val asked nervously, restraining herself. Without replying, Jenna and Sean each pulled out a metal bracelet from their piles of belongings, which had both been thrown on the ground. The bracelets made a click! sound as they were clipped on. Beams of light sprang out from the piles as they began to dissolve, which began outlining the bodies of the two teens. Val and Scotch watched in awe as the lights connected to one another until the outline was complete. Color and material filled the spaces created سے طرف کی the beams, until the clothing that was once in a large heap was materialized onto their bodies. Jenna straightened her hair before finally replying to Valeriya. "Let's move. We've wasted too much time as is."
---------------------
As it turned out, the preparation done سے طرف کی the four was unnecessary. The path was completely cleared for them, and the destruction left in Richi's wake was unbelievable. Rubble was scattered all about the stairwells, and bodies of guards only added to the mess. While some were still alive in agonizing pain, other guards lay dead in pools of blood. "Damn it all, Richi.." Jenna muttered to herself. They climbed with haste, trying to ignore the increasing carnage as they went up. Sounds of fighting could be heard from above them, and they anxiously ran up faster to catch up with whoever it was. "That better be Richi, یا I'm going to kill Cain for taking so long." Sean noted as they reached the fight. A guard flew down the stairs as the group climbed up into the hallway, and they saw both Richi and Cain fighting together. "CAIN!" Jenna yelled at him. "You're supposed to be getting him to stop, not help him!" Cain, who was focusing on combat, was distracted سے طرف کی Jenna, which gave the guards an opening. "Get him!"
A group of 7 guards with nightsticks surged آگے to seize the opportunity, and the rest of the teens joined in the fight. Hiding behind a support beam, Scotch gave the rest cover آگ کے, آگ as they ran to meet the attackers. Richi cut down a guard swinging his nightstick at him, and Valeriya leaped over him to intercept the اگلے attacker. Jenna and Sean slid under her as she flew through the air, cutting down surrounding enemies with their weapons. A shot was fired from the end of the hallway, and nicked Richi's cheek. "Tck! Sniper." He muttered. "I'm on it." Cain told him as he sprinted by. He leaped from دیوار to دیوار above the horde of security guards and tackled a sniper to the ground. While he dispatched the rest of the snipers, the other 5 worked the way to him. The team flowed through the enemies, leveling the hallway and killing everyone that stood in their path.

Richi sighed as he wiped and sheathed his blade. He sat down onto the velvet carpet floor in front of two large doors, and looked over at his teammates. They were all tired from the حالیہ battle, but he noted that a lot of them had an angry look on their faces. "So," Jenna began, "you wanna tell us why آپ rushed off to this place when we could have just left سے طرف کی now?" He looked over at her, then at his teammates, who were all staring back at him for an answer. "Why did آپ follow?" He asked, ignoring her question. "This has nothing to do with any of you." Sean scoffed at this, and in a sarcastic tone, replied, "Oh, okay. We'll just let آپ do whatever you're trying to do and let آپ get killed." Richi stood up in anger. "You have no idea. I have to do this, یا I will never forgive myself for letting this go. But I have to do this myself, because I can't have anyone else getting hurt for my actions. NOW GO!" At this point he was yelling at them, seemingly furious. Jenna stood up to retaliate, but was beat to the punch.
*SLAP*
Scotch's hand stung as she drew back her arm from Richi's face. Her expression showed anger as she looked at him."You... you...." Tear's welled up in her eyes and she ran off down the hallway, back the way they came. Richi stood there, completely stunned at what had just transpired. Valeriya sighed. "I'll go calm her down." She ran off after her, and he noticed that she refused to look at him. "We're all tired, Richi." Cain کہا calmly. He had remained silent the entire time. "It's been a long night, and we just want to go home. Let's go, please?" Richi sighed, and sat down. "I can't." He replied. "I just can't."
"But why?!" Jenna pleaded. "Tell us, so we can understand."
And he told them.
Jenna gasped slightly. "Oh... I didn't..." Richi shook his head. "Only I did. But آپ see why now." The three nodded. "We'll help in any way we can," Cain told him. Standing up, he made his way down the hall. "I'll go tell the girls."
------------
The two large doors burst off their hinges as an energy blast burst through. As the dust cleared, the 6 teens looked over into the office. A man sat on the other end in a leather chair behind a large desk. He looked over at the 6 teens. Richi looked at him with a sneer and pointed his weapon at him. "Hello, Giovanni Kingston." Kingston looked at him with a look of anger and confusion. "Who the bloody hell are you?"
"I'm the son of Maria Antonio, the woman آپ hunted down and executed 16 years ago, and I'm here for your head."
