Enforcers 160 The Chance Encounter

"What!" Cloud said grabbing Kitsune. "Big Brother Hero, is gone!"

"Yeah," Kitsune said shrugging the blind boy's arms off of him. "North to."

"North left?" Ken frowned as she folded her arms. "Why are they-" She stopped tapping her foot slightly. "I need to go." She stated leaving the room.

"Hey where are you going now! You guys can't just keep leaving! What if we get called out on a mission!" Kitsune asked.

"This is more important!" Cloud announced. "I need to go see Santa!" He stated running out of the room as well.

"Oh for G.o.d's sake!" Kitsune ran after them seeing both recruits leave down different halls, Cloud heading towards the downstairs bas.e.m.e.nt, and Ken, heading towards the Captain's quarters. "Uhh! Uhh! Left, Right, Left, Right, Left!" He turned left following after Ken. "Wait up!"

"No," Ken said still walking forward. "That idiot Hero... And that fool North. What the h.e.l.l are they thinking!"

"What?" Kitsune asked catching up to her and walking alongside her.

"They're going after Okane Genkin!" Ken hissed out.

"Wait what!"

Ken sighed shaking her head. "It happened a while back... Before I tried to talk to Hero about my feelings... He mentioned something about smelling you, and that rich man. He was confused, and now he thinks Okane, is the guy behind the mask. That Coin guy? North overheard us. d.a.m.n her."

"Did you say h-"

Ken smacked her sword down on Kitsune's head making him yell out and grab at the b.u.mp that now began to form on his head. "Whoops."

"Oww! What were we talking about?"

"That was easy. I should do that more."

"Please don't? Wait why are we going to see Katrin" 

The two stopped staring ahead at Jackson, and Katrina.

"You've seen the paper right!" Jackson asked her. He raised his voice slightly as he frowned.

"Of course I've seen it! The bodies were aged and-"

"So why are we all standing here then!" Jackson yelled at her. "It's Chandler-"

"Chandler is dead-"

"Then who's the one killing those people!" Jackson screamed. He stopped slowly as he turned seeing the two recruits standing in the halls. They quietly stared ahead as the man gave a sheepish laugh and placed his arms behind his heads. "Hey." He said casually.

Katrina charged past her Vice-Captain storming down the halls in anger as his smile faded.

"Katrina. Please. I'll go. I don't want you to see him-"

"Get back to work. That's an order."

Meanwhile...

"Why are you here?" Reine sighed out folding her arms. A glowing see-through blue arm appeared above her pointing glowing see-through blue sword at the man. Schutz reached down pulling out a longsword as he pointed it towards the man. Bolin let out a small squeak and pulled out his paintbrush and a black bottle of paint.

Max's eye twitched as he stared down at them all.

"Seriously guys?" Max asked. "We're on the same side."

"Prove it."

Max shook his head. He let go of the blue letter in his hands as it floated down into Schutz's hands.

"I hope you aren't so much of a meathead that you can't read?" He asked giving a large smirk.

Schutz flipped the man the bird as he stared down at the blue letter. His eyebrows slowly raised as he looked back up. 

"Seriously?" Schutz asked. He let out a sigh as he shook his head.

"What?" His two teammates asked.

"This a.s.shole is our Squad Leader right now!"

"What!"

"They a.s.signed him as our leader for this mission!" Schutz said with annoyance. "We have to work with him now!"

"Oh come on..." Reine muttered.

"Is... Is it really that bad? He's friends with Hero-" Bolin began but was stopped when a ball of heat flew last his head burning the ground behind him. Boling collapsed to his knees hiding behind Reine's thighs. He poked his head out as a second glowing arm appeared above Reine's head also holding a sword.

"I'm not friends with that idiot." Max hissed out dropping down from the building and landing down in front of them. "Hero Otoko, is just a means to an end. A way for me to improve myself. I don't consider anyone a friend. Not even s.h.i.+ki." 

"Don't be such a jerk!" Reine said placing her hands on her hips.

"What would a n.o.ble like you know about being nice?"

"Don't talk to Lady Reine like that," Schutz said placing his blade at Max's neck.

Max stared at him for a moment before he smiled and turned away. "Honestly I don't know why I was a.s.signed to you, three idiots. I don't even know why you're all here. I mean I know the mission you were a.s.signed but I have no clue why you would care."

"So you know our mission?" Schutz asked. 

"Yes. We're looking for Eins Licht, the Squad One Reserve Member, and also the man I'm going to replace, as well as the lab he's working on, to see what kind of experiments he has been doing, as well as look into Okane Genkin."

"Good. So you're caught up?"

"We're also going to be looking for North and Hero," Max said turning away. 

"My darling North!"

"Why?" Schutz asked frowning. "Last I heard they were off the record here."

"I don't care. I find them useful. It's true that they aren't official Enforcers right now, but that doesn't mean I'm going to let them run around and get away with whatever they want. It's better for them to be in on our loop, then running around messing our mission up."

"I agree with Max!" Reine announced. "Let's go find my darling! Oh sweet prince wait for me!"

"So we're gonna find Hero..." Bolin muttered. "Let's find him. With his cool manliness, we can beat this mission."

"In surrounded by idiots..." Schutz sighed out shaking his head. 

"Well you know what they say," Max said turning away. "Fools travel together."

"You're an a.s.shole..."

"I'm w future Emperor. Now come on. We need to find that Dumba.s.s Otoko, before he does something stupid..."

Meanwhile...

Hero gave a small laugh as he stepped out of another shop.

"Wow!" Hero announced. "I forgot how much people hate me here." He laughed. The teen walked out as he looked up at the black sky. "It is good to be back though... This was the first place I went after I left my grandfather's home... I wonder if I could find his home again? Why would I though?"

The teen continued to march down the street walking past several people.

"Well. I guess I better hurry up and head towards that n.o.bles home. Okane? I just need to get his scent once again." Hero stepped past the corner at a fast speed not bother to look down. "All I need is to get there! Without any interruptions-"

'Cras.h.!.+'

"Oww!" A feminine voice hissed out. 

Hero felt himself fall back as he looked up seeing a small annoyed looking fourteen-year-old girl. She wore a pair of simple black pants, and a simple black T-s.h.i.+rt, with a basic pink jacket thrown over it. She had a pair of pink twintails and cold looking pink eyes that stared down at the boy in annoyance.

"Watch where you're going you big jerk-" The girl stopped suddenly as she slowly looked him up and down. 

She stared at his black messy hair, with white streaks in it, and his silver eyes, which didn't have his contacts in. He wore a simple white T-s.h.i.+rt, and a pair of blue sweat pants with a white streak on the side. He didn't have his Enforcer Uniform Tracksuit, since he was on a break right now. He thought his civilian clothing would be fine. 

"Whoops. Sorry for cras.h.i.+ng into you." Hero laughed scratching the back of his head in a sheepish manner. 

The girl continued to look at him as her eyes slowly widened. "...Seraphin..."
