Ironchain and Cat Sith watched the television; sitting as far from each other's and said nothing to each other's. There wasn't anything interesting going on, but Ironchain made sure to watch anything except a show with cats on it, he had enough of Cat Sith here. The two were bored, especially Ironchain since there was a tournament and he wasn't even participating because Cat Sith also wanted it, but mostly because it was uneventful.
Drum's and the others are lucky to be in the Buddy Police Force, he thought.
Eventually, Kuguru came in with her cellphone and seriously said, "Okay, I'll change the channel."
"What are you-" Cat Sith asked when they saw the news.
In the screen, they saw, from the air, Halberd trying to make his stand against two dragons attacking him and not just any, Thunder Knights Dragons. Halberd was obviously in trouble.
"-As you can see, dragons from Dragon World are currently attacking another dragon and don't seem to care if there are people around them. So far, no one of the buddy police force is coming,-" the journalist said.
Kuguru thought, Tetsuya is the only one who can do something as the Buddy Police Force since Tasuku is busy, Gao is unconscious and Tsukikage is still nowhere to be found.
Halberd suddenly jumped to the right and shielded a civilian from getting hurt before continuing to fight.
The journalist wasn't looking at the fight, but the camera when it happened, but it seemed he heard what the cameraman said.
"-There is a lot of destruction now and it-"
Ironchain turned in his real form when he saw enough of the localisation, "I'm going Kuguru!" before opening the door and dashing.
Kuguru and Cat Sith didn't have the time to say anything. It was then they heard the thunders and the storm begun.
Elsewhere, a man was watching the news with a large satisfied smile and his fingers crossed together, "Looks like something I've feared is happening right now."
Tenchi watched what was happening and said, "Looks like we don't need to take the first step, but let it getting worse," he took his cellphone and called someone, "How's it going with our... guest?... You should hurry up then, we have an opportunity and times are of the essence. The elections are beginning soon you know."
He hanged up and was satisfied by how things were turning out.
Chapter 80: The Lightning strike
Halberd blocked the frails with his shield and jumped to the left before chains captured him. The red dragon back from them and checked around. He noticed there were innocent behind him and yelled, "We cannot fight here Frail!"
"Stop repeating the same thing!" Frail replied before he tried smashing the dragon.
Halberd blocked it with his weapon and yelled, "What you are doing isn't the way of the Thunder Knight!"
"You didn't follow the way of the Thunder Knight yourself!" Frail yelled.
He smashed to the left of the ancient Thunder Knight and a woman yelled when the weapon almost hit her.
The crowd realised how dangerous it was and were really running away, curiosity now gone over their sense of danger.
"Silverchain! Don't hesitate!" Frail ordered the blue dragon that wasn't really getting into the battle as he checked the innocent running away.
Silverchain threw his chain with less hesitating as fewer humans were present around them. He caught Halberd legs and pulled the red dragon on the ground. The golden dragon took his chance and spun his frails as he jumped in the air, aiming the red dragon chest. Halberd blocked it with his shield, grabbed the chain with his tail and pulled it. Silver chain lost his balance and felt on the ground while the red dragon swung his halberd and made Frail felt on the ground. The red dragon rolled on the ground and took a safe distance as he stood up.
I manage to evade that, but I don't know how long I can keep it up, Halberd thought in desperation. He looked around, Where is the Buddy Police Force? They should have been here by now.
Tasuku, Takihara and their buddies watched the criminals put in jail with their buddies with handcuff around the wrist.
"We finally arrest them. They weren't easy," Takihara said with some exhaustion.
Jackknife had a few bruises on his chest while Card Burn had a few mark on his metallic body.
Tasuku and Takihara communication device activated, "-Tasuku! Takihara! Can you hear me?-"
"Yes. We hear you," Takihara replied.
"-We got a major situation elsewhere and you have to intervene now!-" Stella said seriously.
"What is it?" Tasuku asked as they received the coordinates.
"-Two dragons are assaulting another dragon in the middle of the streets and there is a heavy risk of civilians getting hurt or kill. I'm checking the news and it's Halberd who's trying to protect civilians. I already warned Tetsuya and Asmodai who are close, but might need reinforcements,-" Stella comcluded.
"Tasuku. Go there now with your buddy skills. I'll join you as fast as I can," Takihara ordered, even if it was what Tasuku wanted.
"Understood," Tasuku replied before flying away with Jackknife in his real form.
Halberd crashed against a car and the alarm rung while the dragon painfully grunted as he tried to recover from the blow. He had a mark on his breast plate where the frail hit him violently. Frail jumped in the air and was ready to strike Halberd head, but the red dragon used his shield and blocked his assault.
Halberd pushed his shield to the right and made Frail vulnerable to a counter strike. The red dragon tackled with everything he had at the stomach of the golden dragon and pushed him until they collided with Silverchain who was in the air. The red dragon jumped backward and raised his halberd when a lightning stroke his weapon and the energy remained on it. He pointed it toward the golden dragon and the blue dragon, "Return to Dragon world now and swear to never come back here if you intent to hurt the innocent!"
"Never!" Frail yelled back.
Halberd fired without hesitation everything his weapon charged, but Frail stood up and spun his frails and his weapons dispersed the lightning. Thunder resonated around them and some windows of the building surrounding them broke. The red dragon heard a few humans yelling and some of them screaming.
Some of them are wounded, Halberd thought to his horror. He spun his weapon and decided to end this as fast as he could. He charged, but silver chain caught him completely and felt on the ground.
"You drop your guard Halberd," Frail said with a grin on his face. He walked closer to Halberd and spun his Frail, "I'll finish you now and bring your head to Dragon World," before charging toward the red dragon.
"Halberd! I invoke you!" a voice yelled.
The red dragon disappeared to the Thunder Knights surprised. Frail turned where he heard the voice and saw Halberd on his feet with three humans by his side, of them much younger with a spellcard in her hand and a floating green dragon.
"What are you doing here?" Halberd asked.
"We were worried about you," Suzumi replied, facing the two dragons, pissed off.
"Are you alright?" Hanako asked, worried for her friend and buddy.
"I'm alright," Halberd answered when Frail charged.
"I won't let humans in my way and help you!" Frail yelled.
Halberd stroke, but the golden dragon slid by his side and prepared to hit Hanako. The girl yelled surprised when Takashi pulled her away while Tenbu stood protectively in front of the two as Suzumi spun and punched the snout of the dragon when he was close enough.
Frail took a few steps back and grunted, surprised that the human had punched him and didn't use a spellcard. He heard that humans were weak without their weapons, she hurt him.
Tenbu wanted to do more in the fight, but knew that picking his real form was out of question and wasn't sure if Azi Dahara had something to do with that or not.
Frail grunted, but focused at Halberd. He charged at the red dragon while Silverchain threw his chains.
A voice came from above and yelled, "It's been a while, but I won't let you do that!" chain appeared and spun around Silverchain own chain.
Ironchain landed behind Silverchain.
Silverchain said surprised, "L-little brother?"
Frail grunted when he saw reinforcements to aid Halberd.
"What are you two doing here? You are putting the city and the civilians in danger and hurting my friend!" Ironchain yelled.
Halberd heard it explicitly said that, Ironchain. You really did forgive me.
Frail charged and tried to break the chain with his weapons, but Silverchain recognised the chain Ironchain was using and knew it wouldn't break. Frail hit it, the chain resisted, but Ironchain was thrown in the air and was hit in the gut by Frail before landing by the side of his friend.
"Don't listen to him Silverchain. We are here to reclaim the honor of the Thunder Knights," Frail said.
Silverchain nodded and said, "You heard why we are here," he threw the chains toward his younger brother. Halberd blocked it with his large shield while Ironchain slide to the left and grabbed on of Frail's weapon and pulled it toward him.
"You will be less tough now Frail," Ironchain said before dropping it on the ground.
Tenbu picked the weapon, "Don't mind me, I'm just passing," before flying away and secured the frail so the golden dragon wouldn't reclaim it.
Frail grabbed his remaining weapon with his two hands, "That won't be the case."
Frail charged aimed for Halberd legs. Halberd lowered his shield, but a silver chain appeared and grabbed Ironchain legs and broke his balance.
"Ironchain!" Halberd yelled.
"Don't look away!" Frail yelled in the air and aimed Halberd head.
"Blue Dragon Shield!" Hanako yelled.
The shield appeared and blocked the golden dragon assault. Frail was thrown away and landed gracefully on the ground, raising his weapon and charging it with lightning again.
Ironchain was thrown against a car before thrown into another one. When he was in the air again, he spun around himself and broke free. He immediately threw his chain before his older brother grabbed them. He grabbed his brother tail and pulled in toward him. When his brother was closed, Ironchain yelled, "This might give you back some sense!" as he punched Silverchain snout.
Silverchain crashed on the ground, but stood up fast and freed himself from his brother grasp. His snout was bleeding a lot, but that wasn't facing the blue dragon, "You don't hesitate to hit me... I didn't either."
He threw his chain toward his younger brother, but Ironchain was fast and ducked before throwing his weapon again and grabbed Silverchain wrist. Ironchain tried to pull, but his older brother resisted him.
Halberd lost his shield and blocked Frail assault with his weapon, charged with lightning like his enemy. The frail and the halberd collided with the great strength of the dragons.
The red dragon waited for an opportunity to attack again, but it wasn't coming. He also made sure he wouldn't try to hurt Hanako or her family again, but was relief that Tenbu was there and protecting them. He was suddenly hit on his jaw and flew inside a small shop and a cash register felt on his snout. His head was lightly bleeding as he stood up lightly confused just before he was hit by lightning.
Halberd painfully yelled, but he was healed by Hanako healing spellcard. He ran outside, yelled at the golden dragon before tackling his chest. He sent him away and threw lightning before Frail could recover. Halberd charged and tried to hit once again Frail, but the golden dragon quickly recovered and blocked it. Their weapon collided once again and the two furiously glared at each other's.
"I won't let you hurt anyone else and stop this destruction!" Halberd yelled.
"The honor of the Thunder Knights is far more important. We wouldn't have caused this if you let yourself die and accept your punishment with honor!" Frail yelled back.
Halberd grabbed the chest of Frail and replied, "I will not hurt Hanako's heart and I won't let anyone else hurt her until my demise!" he lifted Frail and threw him on the ground.
Frail stood up and overcame the pain as he prepared to continue his fight.
"I think this battle is over," Ironchain said as he brought Silverchain, chained with their clan chain.
Silverchain tried to free himself while Frail grunted furiously. He knew that Ironchain couldn't intervene in the fight.
"That's enough with this chaos," Tetsuya said with a small smile on his face, but taking the situation seriously.
Asmodai appeared near the two dragons and flexed his arms, "You've been having your way for too long in this world," he said.
Frail wasn't impressed by them and was ready to fight when he saw Jackknife and Tasuku coming toward them.
"That's enough of destruction," Tasuku yelled. He drew a card and said, "Surrender now and prepare to face justice!"
"You will not stop us from our justice human! And I didn't forget your treason Jackknife!"
The green dragon frowned and was ready for battle, when Card Burn flew by his side.
"Takihara said I should take the lead. He'll be here soon enough," Card Burn explained briefly.
Frail spun his weapon, ready to fight all of them, but even he realised that he couldn't win this battle, "I won't surrender."
Jackknife knew what to say, "Surrender now and we won't report this to Fang Slade Terrestrial the XIII. You know that the Thunder Knights honor will be permanently destroyed if he's aware that you disobey his orders and almost killed innocents when you swore to protect them."
"And your even worse to drag my brother in this. He wanted to become a Thunder Knights, but you are destroying everything he wanted to be under your teaching. There is no honor in you, but only shame," Ironchain said.
Flair watched everyone and was thinking for a while. His tail slowly tapped the ground as he took a deep breath.
