"No, I'm not...he killed my-"

"You, of all people...took advantage of my kindness; what did I do for you to fool me like this?!"

"I would never do that! You have been my childhood hero ever since I heard you for the first time."

"You said you were blind...then how can you look at me in the eye with no mistake?!"

Before answering that question, he recalled having his sight back the entire time. "I...got it back with the help of-"

"Mercedes!"

More soldiers from the other guilds surrounded the siblings and Austin.

"Seto and Noriko Kaname, you both are officially fugitives from the quarts!"

Seto was tremulous throughout the event, yet nothing was processing to react. "Wait, you guys are jumping to conclusions! Skiros killed one of his members!"

"And who would that be?" Austin asked.

"My mother, she's lying right-" To his surprise, her body disappeared from its previous spot. "...what? Noro, where's mom?"

She was just as shocked, and now they stood with no evidence to back them up.

"THAT'S ENOUGH! I have heard enough from the two of you! Not only are you trying to buy yourself time, but you have also stolen the prowess of your leader!"

"Stolen?" Seto held his arm up and noticed Skiros's last attack still charged it up. "NO, this is just because of the wires...LOOK!"

He began pulling the wires with his teeth, hoping to break the flow.

"Capture them!"

The groups began homing to the kids, where one wire finally snapped.

BLAST!!

Mistakenly, it whipped itself across Austin's waist.

"Huh?"

ZAP!!

"AAAAHHHH!!" It conducted with his water prowess, sending shockwaves through his entire system.

"MISTER AUSTIN, NO!" Seto pulled his arm back to undo its wrapping.

SLASH!!

"..."

A rain of blood flowed around the walls of the street as Austin was cleaved off his torso. Silence surrounded the place before Seto shrieked from his feat. "AAAHHH!!!!"

"KILL THEM!!!!"

"WAIT-"

SLASH!!

With every gesture he made, the whip unconsciously slaughtered the ronins.

"GAH!!"

"NO, I DIDN'T WANT TO-"

SLASH!!

"STOP-"

SLASH!!

"NOOO!!!"

SMASH!!

He struck his fist down on the road, ending the havoc. The surviving ronins stopped hiding and resumed approaching them.

"Forget getting close to them. Let all four of our attacks end this already!!" a Ranger said.

So they all surrounded them and charged up their spiritas. Seto felt his arm burst with spiritas one last time, signaling an even more devastating attack. "Oh no, everyone! You have to run away from this place; I don't want to hurt any of you; I CAN'T CONTROL THIS THING!!"
