I look at the woman. Broken chains and cuffs aorund her ligaments. "You were the one who called me?" I ask. The woman was surprised. "I didn't know a man was smarter than a donkey," she comment. I circle around the woman. "I just realize you can't figure that out yourself," I reply. The woman introduce herself, "I'm Lakhan, the Messenger of God. What is your name?" I stood there thinking. A messenger, huh? I intrpduced myself to her, "I'm Keto Mai. As you should know with your lustfulness, I'm 14 years-old. Sorry, I'm under-aged." Lakhan shrugged her shoulders. "I do know with any attire that you wear. You can seduce any man that are not as smart as a donkey," I compliment. Lakhan laugh with joy. She looks at the Emperor. The Emperor back away from his seat and ran out of the room. I ask, "What is your connection to the Emperor?" Lukhan walk very close to me. "I never thought a child would ask such a thing," Lukhan answers. I smiled and walk to the announcer. The crowds were in disappointment.

I appear in front of Garin. Garin didn't realize that I was there for a few seconds. He looks down and saw me. Garin back away and cover himself with steel-plated armor. "You know I can literally break them in one punch," I told Garin. Garin moves back and stick his left arm out. Stab. Garin look at his left arm. A sword stuck into his arm and the hidden lever. "Why would you do this to us?" Garin ask. I sigh and walk closer to see his face in terror. "I'm doing this to pass judgement down to you and your dad. Killing was my first intention, but you gave me something fun, so I spare both of you and make you suffer as much as your life depends on it. Garin looked away from me. I stab his right arm to the wall. "Have fun taking those out," I told him. Garin groan in pain. Lakhan blushes as she smiles.

The Emperor ran into the wall looking for a hidden switch. He pulled a pulley down and down until it stops. The wall open up from his right and close on his left. He saw me standing there as if he saw a ghost. The Emperor backed away to the walls. "Please don't hurt me. What have I done to you to make you do this?" the Emperor pleaded. I walk up to him. "Nothing yet. I'm doing a request from a certain Mafia that you know," I told him. The Emperor grew in deep despair. "Please spare my son. He didn't do it. My dad and I were the one who did it," the Emperor begged. I check my clothes. Shambles but no blood yet. I ask, "Where is your father?" The Emperor knew what is coming next. "Please kill me and my dad! We were drunk with power." I never thought that he surrender to that point already. I grab a piece of rock with a 3 inch sharp point. I told him, "I'm not going to kill you." The Emperor seems confuse. "I'm going to make you suffer for the crimes of what you have done," I continued. Flesh being cut by rock. The Emperor cried out in pain. "Ahhh!" The Emperor groan pain. I stare at him with no guilt. Why don't I feel any of those negative feelings except anger? Why? I feel like I'm not even human. I walk away from the Emperor. "Wait! If you're looking for him, he is at the other side of the port," the Emperor shouted. I turn back to him. "I know that already. I'll kill him this time," I said.

I walk out of the Yakuza's territory and went ran all the way to the other side of the island. Lakhan was astounded by my speed. "I didn't think he would be this fast. This is a good oppurtunity," Lakhan thought. "I call in the Gods who watches over us. Please lend me your blessings," she shouted. The sky opens up and a seraph came down. Lakhan bent to her knees and pray while smiling. "What is your status, Messenger?" the Seraph ask. Lakhan looks up to the Seraph and said, "I found a specimen who can a good use for Lord Creator's disposal. The kid's name is Keto Mai." The Seraph scatched his head. Lakhan knows the Seraph is hiding something. The Seraph said, "About that. Lord Creator already picked him before another one who has the same desires came up." Lakhan smiled and stood up. "You and I should be a good match tonight," Lakhan blushes. The Seraph smiled, "Again? Up in the heavens we should do it." The Seraph and Lakhan disappear into thin air.

I reach the other side of the port. Rusty buildings everywhere. It seems like the people who lived here are in fear. I shouted, "Old Hermit! I know you're hiding here. Come out wherever you are." An old person walked out of the building. "I heard you went for my son and grandson. What are you? A monster?" Old Hermit ask. I smiled then walk to him. "I know what you're after. You're after money aren't you?" The Old Hermit shouted. I sigh heavily. "Money isn't what I want. I want to make corrupted officials like you to suffer," I said. Old Hermit backed away in fear. "Guards! Guards! Aprehend this monster!" Old Hermit commanded. The Guards are confused. They see me as a kid. One of the guards ask, "Where is the monster?" Old Hermit hesistated to back away. "The kid in front of you is the monster! You stupid idiots! Want me to kill your family as well?" Old Hermit threatens. The guards steadily point their weapons towards me. One of the Guards whisper as he cried, "Sorry, kid." It made me twitch my left eye. "You think you can get away by threatening your own soldiers! Kill your family. Kill you for this. Kill you for that. What kind of person are you?" I shouted. The guards backed away and smiled. My eyes and hair turns white. Old Hermit stepped back in fear and trips over a dead corpse. "Wait! I can make you a deal, so just listen," Old Hermit pleaded. I walk over to him with anger enraging from deep inside. The guards moved away from me. Old Hermit backed away even on the ground. "Don't you want a deal? I'm betting my life to make a deal with you," Old Hermit cried. I smiled and laugh. The guards backed away from me. "I bet that you will die by going around the world and back here," I said. Old Hermit stopped. He starts to laugh. "I will die from this," Old Hermit said with relief. I grab Old Hermit by the neck. The guards were in awe. "Is he really going to kill him?" "What will happens when the Emperor heard of this?" The guards ask each other. I laugh and answer, "Yes, I will kill him and the Emperor can't do anything to me since I destroy their military and him entirely." The guards cheered for their life. "We're free do to anything what we want!" The guards celebrated as they left us behind. I throw Old Hermit in the air. I punch him in the gut's so hard that he can't spew blood instantly. Old Hermit went as fast as a falling meteor out towards the night sky.

Back at the Mafia's headquarter. Sherlock looks outside of the window. She sigh deeply. Quinshy walked inside of the room and saw Sherlock depressed. "What is the matter dear?" Quinshy asked as she walk towards Sherlock. Sherlock still looks out at the night sky. "When will Keto come back home?" Sherlock ask. Quinshy reach for Sherlock and hug her from behind. "He'll be back at mid-night," Quinshy answer. Sherlock saw a shooting star. "I'm making a wish," Sherlock shouted. She close her to hands together. Quinshy smiled. "I wish that Keto will marry me," Sherlock thought to herself. She let her hands loose. Quinshy ask, "What did you wish for?" Sherlock smiled and turn to Quinshy. "It's a secret, mom," Sherlock smiled.

My job is done for now. I'll be heading back to HQ. I sprint all the way to HQ. I saw the entrance by 12:00 A.M. Mid-night as I promised. The guards open the door with surprise. Zom looks at me and shouted, "Guys! Keto is back." I walk inside and look around for the others. Everyone came out of their rooms and found me in the lobby. Krons said with tears, "You made it back in one piece." Sherlock ran towards me and kissed me on the lips. Everyone frozed. I push Sherlock back. "You know that we're siblings and we can't do this," I told Sherlock. Sherlock smiled, "I don't care about the laws. I want you as my husband." Everyone laugh at Sherlock. Sherlock starts to pout as she hit me. "Why me?" I asked.
