Commander I waited for the signal inside of the truck with the other policemen and policewomen. They waited for a while, feeling the tension increasing in their body as the muscles tensed and they lightly started to sweat. It was a big operation and the moment they would strike, they couldn't afford to make a mistake.
After a few more minutes, they heard Kisaragi in the radio, "Go! Go! Go!"
"It's time!" Commander I yelled as they all went out of the trucks and cars and entered in the office.
They dashed with their guns lifted and yelled, "This is the police! All of you down now! We have the authorisation of the Prime Minister!"
The receptionist was taken by surprised and hesitated before raising his hands, wondering if he had done something bad. The Policemen took the stairs and the elevators to climb at the last floor, where the party was going on. Only one Policeman remained behind with the receptionist, making sure that the alert wouldn't spread and reducing the chance of a gunfight to occur.
Commander I was in the elevator and asked, "Stella. Are they alerted now?"
"-Not yet.-" she replied.
They waited and when the elevator opened, they went out and yelled, "This is the police! Everyone on the ground right now!" They raised their guns and the Buddy Police Forces were watching at the police force, wearing their black buddy armor gear, as if they were ready to arrest dangerous and armed criminals.
Commander I yelled, "This is the police! Where is Seiichi and Sueroku? Answer us now!"
Stella pointed at the next room and they went there.
Meanwhile, Magoroku Shido heard it and saw the police force heading to the next room. The boy face paled when he heard his father name, knowing what was going to happen next, "Dad!"
He stopped up and went to the next room. The police force pointed their weapons at the boy and ordered, "On the ground kid! Get on the ground!"
Chapter 136: Shido Birthday Part 2
Kisaragi and his men entered in the building and quickly proceeded to the stairs and elevators. None of them lost a second and went either in the elevators or the stairs. They didn't have every detail but knew what they should do and what to expect. To be absolutely sure that Tenchi wouldn't escape, some of his forces remained outside while others were waiting in helicopters, in case the target tried to escape by the roof. Kisaragi thought of his children and thought, soon. You will be back with your friends Tsukikage, he frowned when they reached the floor where Tenchi should be right now.
The second the elevator opened, they went inside and yelled, "This is the police! Everyone on the ground right now!"
Kisaragi saw Tenchi and yelled, "Tenchi! You are under arrest for murders, attempted murders and possibly of treason against Japan!"
The man frowned as he heard those words and replied, "I don't know what you are talking about. Your actions are also illegal sir-"
"We have the authorisation of the Prime Minister with sufficient proof to arrest you Tenchi! So get on the ground right now!"
Tenchi took out a pistol and fired towards the man. The bullet missed, and they took cover. Firing back at the man.
"Surrender now Tenchi! You have no chance to escape!"
"Never!" the man replied before also taking cover. He reloaded his gun and replied, "You are condemning the Earth to its destruction Kisaragi! You are the true traitor of the Earth! You know what those monsters are going to do if too many could come on Earth!"
The man replied, "You know nothing of it! I know some of them personally and know that they are just like our kind!"
"Don't be ridiculous! Those are monsters and demons that will pervert our world! That makes you the real traitor!" he furiously replied.
The commissioner frowned and reloaded his revolver. He took a deep breath and replied, "We are also monsters and demons Tenchi! Just like using Tsukikage as a puppet to murders civilians and members of your own party! You are using everyone as tools for your own objectives!"
His forces approached Tenchi, but the man fired back and dashed towards another set of stairs. They fired and prevented him from reaching it. One of them hit the shoulder of Tenchi and blood came out of his wound. Alas, it wasn't the arm that held his weapon. Tenchi fired back and hit one of the policemen on the chest.
"Man down!" one of the policemen yelled.
"Take him out now! There are ambulances outside!" Kisaragi yelled.
One of them did so while the other covered the wound, "Hold on man."
"Sacrifices are needed in this world Kisaragi! Some has to die for the benefit of the entire world!"
"Not anymore!" Kisaragi yelled as he came out of his cover and fired.
Tenchi managed to retreat and climbed the stairs quickly, the police force tailing him as they reached the ceiling. Tenchi yelled, "Get the helicopter ready now!"
He then saw lightly coming at him and blinding him. He covered his eyes when the policemen jumped on him and disarmed the man.
"It's over Tenchi," Kisaragi said.
"You just doomed the Earth!"
"No," was the simple reply of the man as he gave his right and what he was accused off. Then man thought, one down. Only Seiichi and Sueroku remained. I hope they could quickly arrest them.
Seiichi and Sueroku heard their name and knew too well who was yelling their name. They knew that Commander I was present and why he was there. The police were there to arrest them and the sound of footsteps only meant that they were numerous. With the current situation, they were also aware that the police force has superior authority over the Buddy Police Force, who was a recent creation and mostly composed of policemen and policewomen who joined under Commander I.
They had little loyalty for themselves and the status only meant that they were going to jail. Seiichi turned around to run away while Sueroku remained there uncertain for a second. He knew that running away might cost his life, if they shot at him. The only thing he could do for his son was to surrender. He grabbed his pistol and threw it towards them, just as they entered in the room.
"Hands behind the head Sueroku!" a police officer ordered.
Commander I entered in the room and searched for Seiichi. It wasn't long before someone yelled behind them, "Dad!"
Magoroku Shido was there, his face paled as he frowned. He knew what was coming for his father, "Leave my father alone! He did nothing wrong! Nothing!"
Gallows appeared behind the boy. He wanted to make a remark, but the mood of his buddy was one he didn't really see before. He never saw the boy as someone aggressive and violent, but this time, the situation was one he knew little about from personal experience. He remained quiet, the best option that was in his mind.
"I am sorry Magaroku Shido, but your father is under arrest for-"
"He would never do anything you would say!" he cut them denying that his father could do wrong, it's only because he was with Seiichi! He furiously believed. The boy took out a spellcard and grunted, "Stay away from my dad!"
"You should do this Shido. This would only cause more trouble and you might ended up in jail for something you don't deserve," Commander I warned the child.
His father tried to say something but was cut by Seiichi who came back and comment, "We surely are going to be execute for this."
Seiichi smirked when he saw the boy's face turning red as bloodlust awoke in him. His father paled, knowing that those words meant only one thing, as he noticed the color of his son. Gallows knew too well that it was a lie, but even if he said anything, his buddy wouldn't believe him. Commander I knew why Seiichi said those lies. It was a chance to escape.
The boy snapped by that simple comment of the man and yelled, "I won't let you!"
He took out a spellcard and used Dark Fog.
The visibility of the room diminished, and the boy went to his father, his buddy by his side, making no comment on the boy's decision.
"Come dad," he dragged his father outside.
Sueroku knew he had to calm his son down before he did something unforgivable. When they were outside, on the roof of the base, they were stopped by Takihara and his buddy. Seiichi went with them, using this opportunity to escape, not hesitating to leave them behind.
They had their deck ready and the man had his spellcard out, "Magaroku Shido. Stop this right now before you are in grave trouble!"
"I won't let you execute my dad!" the boy replied as he grabbed another spellcard.
Card Burn turned into his real form while Gallows did the same.
The boy and his father went away from the door and went to the corner, where they wouldn't be surrounded by the cops.
"Gallows. You shouldn't enter into this fight, or you and your buddy will end up in big trouble," Card Burn warned the Darkness Dragon.
"I know I should interfere in this matter. There is nothing concerning me, but I am bored without a fight and-" he said nothing else.
"Son. I…" his father was cut by Seiichi.
"You shouldn't back down. Or your father life will be lost," the man said.
Gallows heard those words and thought of replying to the man. Those lies should have been obvious, but the bond between father and son was preventing Shido for seeing through. His buddy wouldn't believe him, but his father, surely, "How about you shut up Seiichi?" he suggested, why do I bother? He wondered but focused on the incoming fight.
Takihara also took his spellcard, with everything he heard, it was obvious that Seiichi was pulling the strings and the boy responded to it. Words were useless now and the only way to stop it was through victory.
Meanwhile, Commissioner Kisaragi and some detectives were searching in the computers for any information's that could be useful, such as the location of the man called Gara, who had something to do with what happened to Tsukikage.
As they searched for it, the man walked outside, leaving his men to continue the search. He entered in the police car where Tenchi was restrained and sat in front of him' "Tenchi. I have a few questions as we search there and your house."
The man said nothing, just glaring at the commissioner.
The man didn't let that affect him and adjusted his monocle, "Tenchi. We know about the many crimes you've committer and with everything we'll find, you might get the death penalty if you don't answer my questions."
"My death will be better than answering your questions. I won't have to watch the world collapse because of Hinako and her stupid and naïve belief that we can leave in peace with those monsters. They are just going to take over the world," the man grunted.
Kisaragi lightly smiled, "Sound like a typical movie trope."
"This is what they are," the man grunted.
"Because they are not humans?" the commissioner asked.
Tenchi didn't reply, but it was obvious that he agreed with that claim.
"I don't care who they are Tenchi, but what you did and the crimes you've commit, those are what I care. Now answer my question. Where is Gara? If that man succeed into controlling Tsukikage, he could turn them against humans. Thought about that Tenchi? You can get some mercy at the court. Because we have enough proof to take you down. Even if you erase everything in the computers, we can restore it."
The man didn't reply.
"Fine. We will find him the hard way," he went out of the car and said, "Take him to jail."
The policeman nodded and climbed in the police car with someone else.
Kisaragi got a call and answered, "Mos-"
"-Commissioner. We have trouble handling Seiichi and Sueroku right now. We have to deal with a Darkness Dragon monster.-" he recognised the voice of Commander I.
Kisaragi grabbed his monocle and replied, "You cannot let them escape. Try to subdue them while I call Gao and his buddy."
"-Understood,-" he replied.
The man grunted, "Must be Magaroku buddy."
Gallows readied his claws and slashed at Card Burn, who blocked the claws with ease. The two monsters flew higher in the air as the assault continued. None of them were backing down. The purple eyes of the Darkness Dragon turned into joy as he pushed the hero one away.
"Finally! I can feel the excitement of a battle again! My blood is boiling right now. Sha. Sha. Sha," he giggled as he avoided a blast coming at him, "I know I shouldn't fight, but I can't stop myself."
"Maybe it's only all the sugar you ate Gallows," Card Burn replied.
Gallows frowned, not realising he just got burned by the reply.
"I'll get you for this!" he concentrated darkness on his claws and threw them at the monster from Hero World.
The hero one avoided it and closed the distance, giving a powerful blow on the skull and followed by another one on the groin, sending him away.
The Darkness Dragon painfully grunted as he giggled. The pain wasn't that intense and two hits like that wouldn't beat him, "Let's get serious Shido!"
The boy called his resolve as Takihara stared at the boy. Words were useless and in the name of justice, he wouldn't back down.
The two monsters clashed and continued their assault.
Not far from battle, an individual was watching everything coming together and was ready to act if necessary. He felt that everything was heating up and had to act in the name of justice, "Looks like I have to cut short on my sweet peace time."
To be continued.
AC: This is the end of this chapter. Next one will focus more on the fight and another one to conclude it. I ended up here because I think it's a good place for that.
Next: Shido's Birthday Part 3.
