Welcome back to The Will of Sin. Last time, Spyro and Cynder's team and the Five-0 Taskforce managed to track down where Elora was running from when Sin started chasing her at the start of the story. But while there, 9 showed up and started shooting. Flame, having a score to settle with him, shot out 9's eye, who then shot Flame through the chest before fleeing. As we left, McGarrett, Spyro, and Cynder ascended to the rooftops and started to give chase to 9. So, will they catch him? How does this encounter end? Read on to discover...

(Our story resumes across the rooftops of Honolulu, where McGarret, Spyro, and Cynder are pursuing 9. Given time delay in getting onto the roof, 9 has a bit of a lead on the law, but McGarrett and company aren't far behind by all that much.)

McGarrett: Geez, this guy is fast!

9: (Turning around to see them, before continuing the escape running backwards) Run, run, run, as fast as you can! You'll never catch us, gingerbread man!

McGarrett: Okay, this guy is nuts.

Cynder: Spyro, you go around, rendezvous with the others. Steve and I will carry on from here.

Spyro: Copy that!

(With that, Spyro flies out of scene as the chase continues. 9 continues leaping from rooftop to rooftop, with Cynder and McGarrett in hot pursuit. As 9 tries to throw the two off his trail by leaping over everything from air conditioning units to rooftop building entrances, we suddenly see a shadow leaping over the group, as Hunter parkours his way in front of 9)

Hunter: Going somewhere?

(Seeing his main route is blocked off, 9 immediately changes course for the edge of the building and leaps off it onto a palm tree, sliding down and continuing the chase on the sidewalks, with Cynder, McGarrett, and Hunter following suit. Within minutes of the chase hitting the ground, things appear to be wrapping up very quickly, as 9 appears to be getting exhausted)

9: (Seeing this) No fair! Why am I getting tired faster than they are!?

McGarrett: (In complete disbelief) Does he literally not realize he's carrying a massive rifle?

Cynder: This is par for the course in dealing with him.

(9 doesn't get much farther from there before a police vehicle pulls up, allowing Chin and Danny to get out and confront him as Spyro glides in next to them)

Spyro: There's nowhere to run, 9! We've got you cornered!

(At this point, 9 can only look around as the forces around him close in. After a few seconds of this, he looks to his gun.)

9: Well, Mr. Laser Blaster. Looks like this is the endgame for us. So let's go out in a blaze of glory!

(With his final speech made, 9 just starts firing everywhere. If he's going down, he's taking as many people as he can with him. As the bullets fly, everyone heads for cover and starts trying to fire back)

Cynder: (Over the chaos) Shoot to injure, not to kill! We need him alive if we're going to find Sin!

(The bullets continue to fly, and 9 is laughing all the way. Within a few seconds of this moment, his gun runs out of ammo, and as he's reloading, Spyro seizes the opportunity and rushes 9 and tries to knock the gun from the ape's hand, but he's not letting go)

9: People like you are exactly the problem with modern police! You want to take me to jail just because I'm an ape!

Spyro: That detail couldn't matter less to me! I work with reformed apes on the regular! You're going to prison because of all the people you've killed on Sin's behalf!

(As the struggle continues, everyone is holding their fire, waiting to get a shot at 9 if necessary. But after a few minutes of struggle, Spyro gets a good grip on 9's gun and rips it from his hand throwing over his shoulder to Chin and Danny)

9: Mr. Laser Blaster!

Spyro: This madness ends here.

9: If you hurt my friend, I'm going to kill you!

(Just as 9 is about to charge Spyro, Cynder fades into her shadow before emerging behind 9, stabbing him in the leg, and taking him down a peg then and there. However within minutes of hitting the ground, 9 turns around and tries to strangle Cynder, but just as he gets a good grip on her throat, Spyro grabs 9 from behind and throws him into the side of the vehicle Danny and Chin arrived in, knocking him out.)

Cynder: (Getting up and rubbing her neck) 1 assassin down, one mastermind to go.

Spyro: (Throwing a comforting wing over Cynder) You okay?

Cynder: I've been through worse.

(As this is going on, McGarrett and Hunter rush in to secure 9's wrists with zip ties before he can get back up, at which point, Danny actually sees the impact)

Danny: Whoa. You actually dented the door. You threw a monkey into a car door so hard you dented it. We sure he's going to survive that?

Spyro: He'll be fine. One thing we found out the hard way, he's got a plate in his head.

Danny: (Trying to make sense of an ape with a plate in his head) Okay, this has been the weirdest day of my life.

McGarrett: Yeah, well it's only going to get stranger. We'll put the chimp in the interrogation room so we can get Sin's location out of him when he regains consciousness. In the meantime we need to check in on Kono and Lou. Danny, that's on you. Chin and I will interrogate 9.

Cynder: Not without one of us you're not. I'll interrogate 9 with Chin. Spyro, Steve, you guys get sorting through anything recovered from Elora's motel room. Hunter, you'll go check on Flame as well.

(With the plan acknowledged, everyone heads back to Iolani Palace as our tale ends for today)

Well that was a lot to take in all at once. If this chapter seems a little crazy, that's mostly derived from the fact that I have no clue how to write a good chase scene in Hawaii Five-0 style. But I hope what I delivered works out. Anyways, now that 9 is in custody we are one step closer towards uncovering Sin's identity. Any guesses? Let me know if you think you've cracked that little case. I seriously enjoy reading your theories. So, next time, 9 goes in for interrogation. What will he reveal? Tune in next time to find out! Same time... same channel!
