The scene opens up showing the two groups. "Well, looks like ill go get them." Zero said, he jumps forward dashing towards Noah and Mariah but in a lightning fast speed Marcus appears in front of Zero. "You... Aren't going anywhere." Marcus said with anger. "I'll go get them." The mystery man said, he then turns to look at Karagshi. "Make sure you take care of these pests.."The Mystery man added. Karagshi nodded, but then Tai dashes towards the mystery man. "You aren't leaving!" Tai yells as he throws a punch, the mystery man vanishes like an illusion. "What?!" Tai said with confusion. Karagshi then steps forward grabbing Tai; picking him up and slamming him into the ground. "AGH!" Tai yells in pain. The scene changes showing Noah running while carrying Mariah on his back. "You okay, Mariah?" Noah asked. "Yeah, I'm fine!" Mariah said, but then the mystery man suddenly appears in front of Noah, forcing Noah to stop. "We can do this the hard way or the easy way! Hand over the girl." The mystery man said. "Never! Oh, what's your name by the way?" Noah asked. "Michio.. My name is Michio.." Michio said. "Oh, good." Noah said, in a flash Noah darts at Michio. "Good to meet you Michio, now meet my fist!" Noah yells as he throws a punch, suddenly Michio disappears like an illusion after getting hit. "What?! This isn't you?! Where are you, coward!?" Noah asked in rage. "I'm right where you wish I wasn't." Michio said. "Huh?" Noah said in confusion as he turns around; nothing Michio holding Mariah up by her neck. Noah twitched a little from anger. "Put.. Her down.. NOW!" Noah yells. "Oh no no no no.. I can't do that, ya see, I know you care deeply of this bitch but me and my group have business to take care of. We need her. So, you don't get her back." Michio said with a smile. Noah darts at Michio throwing another punch, Michio and Mariah dissolve like an illusion. "Another illusion?! AGHHH!" He said with frustration. "Are you mad, Shadow boy?" Michio said with a numerous tone. "I SWEAR I WILL KILL YOU!" Noah yells out in rage as a shadow and dark aura explodes around him, cracking the ground viciously. "Now, Michio you know we don't play with enemies." A voice said. "Huh? Master?" Michio asked. Then a tall man appears I front of Noah, he has long black hair and is wearing a fancy like overcoat. "Oh, Noah? Hm. We could use him too." The man said while dashing at Noah, The man throws a punch to Noah's gut, the hit connects. Noah's eyes widen from the pain as blood shoots from his mouth. "Agh.. Ugh.." Noah mumbled while falling to the ground. "Let's take them to the base." The man said as the scene darkens.
