"Engage people with what they expect; it is what they are able to discern and confirms their projections. It settles them into predictable patterns of response , occupying their minds while you wait for the extraordinary moment – that which they cannot anticipate."

–Sun Tzu, The Art of War

Then there was a loud crash, a gunshot and DeadLead grumbling loudly about something. I blinked. Thread Walker was still alive but I still couldn't comprehend what was before me.

"Why did you send me to get the little girl?!" Gekko whined, "She's like the most powerful out of all of them!"

"Because you can't die you imbecile!"

A pale, white clothed figure with black pig tails and red eyes screeched; her elongated tipped tongue flaring upward in frustration and said,

"WHY. WON'T. YOU. DIE!!!!?"

Fluffy thundered through the hole he threw Gekko and roared. I put my hand out to try and paste DeadLead to the floor so I could shoot him but he activated a kind of JetJump that he used to flee. Giving up on that I pasted Gekko down instead,

"NOOO!!!"

I didn't even shoot him, blood went everywhere from Fluffy's stomp and then Sara went overboard and blasted his remains with dark matter from her mouth and hands. Once she stopped I could still see the pieces reforming in an ugly manner.

Gunfire rippled Fluffy's flesh and I made out Typewriter's form coming towards us. Sara screamed, insane with a dark ecstasy of battle and rage from frustration about being avoided this whole time,

"AND WHY WON'T YOU HOLD STILL!?!?!!!"

She began screaming as she carelessly blasted in his direction and Fluffy lumbered through walls after him.
Then there was a flash and I dodged reflexively and a knife arcing with electricity hit the pillars behind me. A flash followed and Viral Taze was there to pull his blade out from the wall,

"You don't know when to just die do you?" He said with annoyance.

He threw his knives at me and I did a leaping corkscrew (lopsided with the broken leg) to avoid them but, seeing I was still going to dodge his blades he used them as the conductors for a teleport before the blades even hit anything. Holding/catching his knives with dramatic flare he turned to do it again.

And again...

And then me and Walker were trying to dodge his attacks...

And every time he ended it with flare; it was getting frustrating!

Civilians, began to flee from their hiding places before the fighting got worse but Viral Taze would throw his blade at them and teleport (mainly from his sick and twisted definition of flare).

"You see them?" He said once not even looking at us then he threw a blade that cut my neck. When he teleported he touched the blade and rubbed the blood into his fingers in mock observation,

"You will join them soon."

A series of pops came from where Gekko was and we looked to see him pop his neck in the other direction. His elongated tongue swirled around his mouth in a form intimidation,

"Time for lunch!"

Then as we stood in the sunlight from the window above, they moved in on us,

"Look at them Gekko." Viral Taze said evilly.

"No where to run!" Gekko finished as he crawled toward us.

All this fighting for nothing! My leg finally gave way and I fell on all-fours; Walker prepared to protect herself (and probably me if she could)...

Then glass shattered and they came at us...

The glass hit my scalp and the light was suddenly shaded over. I looked up at the darkness and saw a figure with a spike as a arm...

With Gekko practically on a stick!

"AGAIN!?!" He roared weakly because he was impaled.

The figure pinned him down and his other arm transformed before my eyes in a large blade...

"Aw man this is gonna suck-" Gekko said before his head was cut off.

Viral Taze was stock-still with terror before teleporting away to some distant conductor. The man spoke to Walker,
"Godfather sent me." He said with no-time-to-waste urgency as he walked to the door with purpose, "Get out of here. Go to safe house seventy." Then he morphed his appendages to get under the garage like mall door and lifted it just high enough for me to drag myself under before passing out.
