[South of Brockton Bay, Downtown area]


Running at full speed, with the support of the power Vista that propels them and opens and creates paths over houses,

Caerus and Vista are heading to where the battle will be taking place.

"Clock, if the battle is happening in the place I'm thinking, those big abandoned buildings and constructions at downtown, we're in luck right?" Vista asks, and Caerus listens attentively to the answer.

"Yeah, very few people around and a lot of space, the fight didn't start there, but the capes were moving as they fought."

Caerus, running fast, but not at his full speed, this time asks a question himself,

"Any news about us having support from any other cape?" The boy asks, not really liking their odds after all Empire could very well end up sending even more people,

"From what I hear, everyone is pretty busy. But I'd give Assault and Battery a few minutes to deal with the Merchants and go there"

The boy in the golden mask just "Hmms", and remains calm and focused.

After a few minutes, they finally arrive at the scene, from afar they can already see Hookwolf who, together with Krieg, tries to hit Velocity, failing, and taking hits from time to time.

Both wards stop on top of a low building,

"That's a bad matchup for him." Caerus observes, his fists clenching slightly.

Vista seems to be deep thinking, thinking about a strategy.

"I... I'm not going to be much use to Velocity-" An explosion resounds further back on the horizon. "-And I think I can help Miss Militia more, can you handle those two brutes over there?" She asks, annoyed, but leaving aside a slight beef she has with Hookwolf.

Caerus turns to her, Vista sees something that she only sees when she goes on patrol with him,

Something that the other Wards have also noticed.

Absolute calm, almost endless focus.

"Yeah, I'll manage. Go squish those ugly Barbies from the Empire." He says and turns his attention to the fight roughly 500 feet from him.

Vista pats his arm and runs in the direction they saw the explosion, passing through the abandoned land,

Caerus turns back to face his objective.

Entering a corridor position at the edge of the building.

'This is it, the first fight where I must truly fight. Hookwolf and Krieg are no joke... But, as I said to Vista, I'll manage.' The boy thinks and looks slightly up, seeing the wheel already above him.

While on the way here, he sensed that the wheel wanted to turn. By simply thinking about wanting to get there faster, wanting to be able to think faster to come up with solutions and consider potential threats, those simple "wants", almost adapted him...

'This power not only works in parallel to my cursed energy, no. It's something linked to my existence, biological in a way, but still intrinsic to me, following my mind.'

"It's no longer Mahoraga's wheel, it's now My Dharma Wheel."

The boy's cursed energy explodes into determination, his legs tensing, and then...

A crash is heard as a chunk of where the boy was, on top of an abandoned building is crushed,

Caerus shoots like a missile to where the enemies are,
