They both found it equally strange as they found it funny as they both tried to not laugh at it.
Mix: Hehe, anyway yeah. We should get back in the fight.
Ty nodded in agreement, however they both stopped dead in their tracks as they each felt a gun get pressed into their backsides.
???: Don't bother teleporting. I'll shoot before you even start.
Mix thinking: Not sure how that's possible.. but I'll go ahead and not test his claim.
They both turned their heads to see who was behind them, and were met with a very creepy sight. Behind them was a rather tall man, wearing a red suit and a top hat. His face was covered by a while mask with a creepy smile carved into it. Behind the mask was just darkness.
Ty: Who're you..?
Man: Kagetane. Kagetane Hiruko. It's a pleasure to meet you both, yet again.

Mix: Again? I'm pretty sure I'd remember someone like you.
Kagetane: I'm sure you would, m'boy. Where it's true we haven't technically met before, I am well acquainted with other versions of yourselves.
Ty: Another one from a different universe..?
Kagetane: Ah, so you understand what I mean. Yes, you'd be correct about that. Anyway, let's get down to business. You two will be coming with me now.
Mix: And why would we do that?
Kagetane: Because if you don't, I'll shoot you until you black out, then take you with me.
Ty: Convincing offer, but I'll have to go with no on either of those.
Mix: Yeah, same here!
Mix then grabbed Ty's arm and blipped them both away as fast as he could. They managed to disappear a moment before two bullets we're about to hit them. They reappeared on top of a building across the road since it was the first place Mix saw.
Mix: Phew.. that was a close o- dang it.
Someone else was also up there with them. A young girl in blue wielding two katanas.
Kohina: Hehe, papa was right. You did come up here! Now I get to cut you!
Mix thinking: He predicted where I'd teleport?!
Kohina then giggled like a psycho and darted towards them.
Ty: MOVE!
They both began dodging all over the place as the girl darted around, swinging her swords like crazy trying to cut them.
Mix: She's fast!
He teleports back a step as Kohina swings at him, just barely saving his throat from being slit.
Ty: And the mask guy claimed to be fast too.. think he's even faster?
Ty narrowly avoids taking a sword to the gut as Kohina had randomly switched targets.
Mix: It's possible.. We can't beat an opponent like this. Let's move!
Mix then teleports to Ty, then moves the both of them back down to the ground.. Where they're instantly being shot at by Kagetane, making Mix continue to teleport himself and Ty around.
Kagetane: You can't do this forever you know. Eventually I'll have what I want.
Unfortunately Mix knew this was true. He couldn't teleport around infinity. Sooner or later he'd need a break. Meanwhile all Kagetane had to do was stand there and pull the triggers..
As this went on, Tina took notice of it from her own battle up in the sky. Her rifle took the form of a sniper as she immediately aimed in on Kagetane's head and opened fire. Without even looking, Kagetane held his hand out towards the bullets, and they slammed into an invisible barrier, falling to the ground at his feet. He then looked up at Tina.
Kagetane: Ah, the owl girl. How nice to see you again.
Tina: You...
Tina seemed incredibly bothered by the strange man's presence, and she seemed to be muttering to herself now.
Kagetane: For a minute there I thought I wouldn't get to see any Guardians today. What a relief it is to see you.
Now that he wasn't shooting, Mix and Ty stopped blipping around. Ty immediately darted over to the masked man and jumped to kick him in the head. Kagetane blocked with his arm, then pushed the kitsune away. Three throwing stars then slammed into the same invisible barrier as before. A failed attack from Mix, who then noticed Kohina on her way down the building. She was sliding down the side, a creepy smile on her face as she stared at her targets.
Mix: This fight is getting out of hand pretty quickly.
Ty: Yeah, no kidding..
Between Milim brawling with Shirai, Misaka and Tina fighting the swarm of demons, Skull and Steve fighting it out, and Mix and Ty having to handle these two psycho newcomers, there was just too much going on at one time.
Ty: It's possible some pro heroes could show up soon but how would we even explain what's going on to them..?
Mix: Not sure.. Wait, what's that?
Ty: What's what?
Mix pointed up at the sky, where there was a bright blue light way up high. It seemed to be getting closer.. fast.
Ty: No idea..
Mix: We're too close.
Ty: What?
Mix: MOVE!
Mix teleported himself and Ty down the road just as a massive bolt of lightning came crashing down on Kagetane. Sparks flew everywhere as the thunderous boom grabbed everyone's attention. It seemed his barrier had protected Kagetane, but there was a giant singe mark in a circle around him. He turned around to face his attackers.
Kagetane: Ah, now that's more like it. Three Guardians is far more entertaining than one!
