When they arrived at the town, heads poked from their houses to look at them. Their expressions were of joy. Some came out to celebrate exclaiming, "They've caught the killers! Hooray!"
Johan waved at them and smiled. Gosen ignored him and concentrated on the high power level. Out of the blue, it disappeared. Joahn and I froze at the same time.
"What happened?" Gosen asked.
"He might've either been killed, or hemust've suppressed his Ki to a regular townsmen."
They continued following the two men all the way to the town square. There we were met by a man in a white suit and a cane. He had slick black hair and fierce brown eyes. He looked to be impatiently waiting for something.
When he saw them, his eyes widened and he rushed to meet us. "Zack! Zeke! I see you caught the killers! Now we can get paid!"
Zack, the big one, shook his head. "Sorry boss, but this little kid caught them. We found them already beaten."
"But how can that be!?" exclaimed the man. "He's just a child!"
"It's true," confirmed Zeke, the skinny one.
He looked at Gosen and said, "Hey kid, if you say that my men here caught these killers, I'll give you half of the award money for them."
"Award money?" he asked.
Zack said, "Yeah. These guys were number seven on the most wanted list. Their reward money was one thousand."
"Then we're not saying that you caught them. We were the ones who did and we're getting all of the award money," Johan said.
"Shut up kid!" the man yelled, thrusting his cane at Jonah.
In a swift movement, Johan dodged the cane and snapped it in half. "Watch your mouth, old man, or I'll shut it for you."
The man was terrified and scrambled backwards.
"What's going on here?"
They all turned around and found another man in a suit. His suit was black, and he had a top hat on as well. "Oh, I see you've caught the killers. Good job, hunters."
Zeke shook his head. "Sorry, mayor, but this kid here caught them. He deserves the prize money."
The mayor was astonished. "This boy? That's amazing! Come with me to collect your prize money."
Gosen and Johan followed the mayor to his grand house. He led them inside and into his office. He reached into his desk and pulled out a briefcase marked with the letters: Trio Killers and handed it to them. When they opened it, their eyes were staring into a briefcase full of money. Johan grabbed it from Gosen's hands and said, "Is it alright if we became hunters too, like those guys back there. We could hunt down all the criminals on the list for you guys."
The mayor nodded. "That's fine. Just be sure to be careful. You can go with Zeke and Zack to get your weapons and hunting dogs. They'll also give you the list of the criminals."
Gosen shook his head and said, "We don't need the weapons and dogs. We'll just get the list if that's alright."
"It's alright. Now if you'll excuse me, I have some business to attend to. Please move along."
They thanked him and left his home. When they were outside, they told Zeke and Zack about their wanting to become hunters and they led them back into the town. They stopped by a new house, slightly larger than the others. Inside was filled with guns, dogs in cages, and clothes.
They walked to a stack of papers and Zeke handed Gosen and Johan one. The papers had lists of names and pictures of criminals. Next to the names and descriptions, there were lists of where the criminals were mostly sighted.
"Thanks," Gosen said as he and Johan exited.
"Why did you accept this in the first place?" he asked Johan as we walked down the street.
"Just think about it. We can practice our skills catching these criminals and get money for it. Isn't it great?" he replied.
"I guess so," he admitted. He looked down at his list and asked, "So where to first?"
"I was thinking we could go from the bottom of the list and work our way up to the most wanted." Johan suggested.
Gosen nodded in agreement. "Then lets get moving."
They both ran to the side of the road and flew into the air. They followed the sings below to thier first criminal.
They were now hovering over a bank where a person dressed in green was hiding behind the pillars and shooting at the police. And the police were hiding behind their own cars and trying to get the man to surrender, but to no avail.
Before Gosen could fly down and catch him, Johan held him back and said, "You got the three ninja guys last time. Now its my turn."
Gosen sat cross legged in midair and said, "Have fun."
Johan grinned. "This'll be over in a few seconds." And he was serious.
He flew down, dodging bullets, and kneed the green man in the stomach. He then grabbed the man by his jacket and flew him up next to Gosen.
"Done," he said with a smile.
"Well, Leprechaun is out. Lets turn him in and get our prize money." Gosen said.
They flew back to the mayors house and collected their money. They took Leprechaun to the jail where the mayor had told them to give him to the policemen.
"Thank you," the policemen said.
"You're welcome," Johan and Gosen said in unison.
