The Skull Crusaders

Kaito Acuva

Ean and Kazuki stopped talking hearing a loud noise coming from down the hall. They stood up and were about to walk over to see what it was when they saw Eddy come flying out through the wall. They were going to rush in and help him but he stopped them. 

"don't get involved" said Eddy looking into the hole of the wall as the leader of the Unlawful Cops walked out. 

"Well?" asked the leader "are you done? or do I have to toss you around some more?"

"Kaito stop!" shouted Trevor rushing in to hold back his brother but getting knocked back instead.

"Stay out of this Trevor, someone needs to open Eddy's eyes to the truth" he took a step forward and glared at eddy "your not going after her, you had your shot and lost. Now be a good boy and stay here while the grown ups fix this mess"

Eddy gritted his teeth and charged at Kaito swinging left and right but Kaito was bigger and faster than Eddy, he dodged Eddy's punches and slammed him back with his palm. Kaito ran to Eddy before he could recover, picked him up and slammed him against the wall "listen to me you little shit, you almost got yourself and my little brother killed. Do you know what that means?" He pushed Eddy harder against the wall cracking it "you were a member of the Tyrants but your not strong enough to take on one of its leaders, the moment you saw it was Scarlet you should have backed off. The Unlawful Cops respond faster than the Military police, if you had called us, we would have been able to stop them before they skipped town" he pulled Eddy towards him then threw him at the ground "Trevor said you were trying to create a group. I recommend you don't, I'd hate to have to identify your friends bodies" he turned away from Eddy to look at Trevor, he sighed and started to walk away when he heard Eddy whisper the words "fuck you". Kaito stopped and turned around to see Eddy stand back up "what did you say?"

Everyone stood quiet as the building around them began to shake when Eddy shouted "Fuck you!" punching the wall, making the two walls next to Kaito poll towards each other, flattening him. Eddy gritted his teeth as the walls exploded and Kaito stood without a scratch.

"that's what I thought you said" said Kaito reaching for the gun on the side of his belt, in an instant he raised it and fired it.

Eddy moved to the side dodging the  bullet but the it curved around and hit him in the back of the head creating a small explosion. Eddy fell to the ground holding his head as blood dripped down the back of his neck.

"you don't want to fight me" said Kaito noticing the building shake more and more. 

"Eddy stop!" shouted Genkaku pulling Trevor out of the way "theirs innocent people here!"

Eddy looked up at Kaito moving his hands down to touch the ground "FUCK YOU!!" he shouted again using the tiles and concrete floor to charge at Kaito. 

Kaito smiled firing off two rounds but surprised as the walls closed once again stopping his bullets then moved away to let Eddy pass as he punched Kaito in the face hard, launching him out the main entrance.

'Kaito!" shouted a woman with long black hair running towards him. She wore a black bra on top of a cheetah patterned long sleeve shirt and black pants.

"stay back!" shouted Kaito standing back up, blood now dripping from the side on his mouth "this little shit just asked me to put him out of his misery"

"Kaito stop! were in a hospital!" shouted the woman standing in front of him.

Kaito looked past the woman to see Eddy stepping out "move Benkei" he said pushing  past her. 

Eddy prepared himself for another one of Kaito's attack when Ean and Kazuki came running out to try and stop him. "I'm not done yet" he said "A true leader doesn't stop until he gets back what is his, Guen is my friend and I will not stop until I get her back!" 

Kazuki and Ean froze, Eddy felt the same way they did but he was prepared to go and get her back, no matter the cost. 

"Kaito, stand down" said Trevor walking out of the entrance "Your trying to reason with a former Tyrant, he's not going to listen"

Kaito stared at the four of them standing in front of him "you have no idea what your getting yourself into" he said as Benkei placed her hand on his shoulder pulling him back.

"that's exactly what they told us when we made Unlawful Cops" she said with a smile "The only way for a group to grow is by spreading its wings of freedom. They wouldn't be able to look their friend in the eye if we were the ones who saved her"

Kaito sighed reminiscing the day he, Benkei and a few if  his friends first made the Unlawful Cops, they used to look just like Eddy and his friends did now. He wiped the blood off his face "Eddy, promise me something, promise me that you will never bury any of them, no matter how big your group gets, or how strong the opponent is, promise me you will never have to bury a single one"

Eddy looked at Kaito as he lowered his hand, he was dead serious "I promise you Kaito, I promise you that I will give my life to save my friends"

Kaito nodded turning around to walk towards his car and get into the back.

Benkei got into the driver seat and started up the car, she didn't have to look at him to know how he felt "It's okay Kaito, we're fulfilling their wish by staying alive"
