KT and Akane were riding in a car with five others. They were on the way to kill their current targets.

Mark had called them in the middle of the night and informed them of a new job they had, and that it would take precident and include their current plot.

Mark was going to kill Makima, the Control Devil.

The plan would continue on as normal, however, KT had a bonus objective. Stop anyone from running away.

With Mark and his crew

Marksman landed on top of the moving bullet train, his bandoliers flailing from the wind.

Inside of the train, more than fifty of his men were ready with guns to shoot Makima and any devil hunter with her.

Then at the next stop were more than two hundred more shooters, ready to blow more holes into Makima.

This was all to be a distraction for Mark and his new conspiritor to strike.

With an earpiece being put in before he transformed, Mark placed the barrel of a shotgun to his ear to activate it. "Bullets to Throws, we are approaching the mark point, how copy?" He asked.

"Dude, the rows is such a fucking stupid codename." The person on the other end complained in a terrible attempt of the Japanese language.

"First of all, it's throws you american prick. And second of all, I didn't hear shit back at the office. So shut the fuck up and get your pointed ass ready, we're almost there."

"... Your language fucking sucks."

"Go fuck yourself. You have There, Their and They're, Read and Read being pronounced the same like Lead and Lead, and you bitch about my language? American dog."

The train lurched to a halt as Marksman cracked his neck. "Train Squadron, Open fire!" Mark shouted.

From three cars ahead Mark head the telltale sound of a party in the works as he heard pistols firing.

Mark moved forward on the train as the doors opened and he saw a familiar head of red hair. He aimed his right arm, currently a sniper rifle, and fired right into Makima's leg. "OPEN FIRE!" Mark shouted to the people he had ready at the station.

And open fire they did, like the Americans during July or the Chinese during their new year celebration, the train station glowed brightly as a multitude of Pistols, Assault Rifles, Shotguns, and other weapons turned Makima into swiss cheese.

Then they all fell to the ground. Dead.

"NOW!" Mark shouted as his right arm turned into a shotgun. He held both arms back and fired, using the recoil and the force to propell him twords Makima.

As he flew, A volley of spears flew at Makima's legs, holding her in place as they tore through her.

Mark collided into Makima as a man with a head made from pole arms and spear tips jumped down from the adjacent roof to join Mark in the fight.

This was America's own Hybrid. Franklin Pierson, However he called himself Pierce or The Spear Man.

As Pierce landed, Makima's legs were left behind as Mark wrapped his bandoliers around her neck and held her up.

Mark grinned as he switched his weapons to Uzi's and tore through Makima like she was paper.

After a minute of firing, Mark stopped. Only for a look of horror to fill his face as the wig fell off of Kobeni's head.

As she sputtered out the last of the blood in her body, a note fell out of her jacket pocket while an ethereal chain snapped.

The chain led into the train as Makima walked out, removing a shoddy blonde wig. "Have you no shame Marcus? Turning one of my own against me in such a way that she'd throw her life away. Then you kill her in cold blood? Dishonorable."

Mark let out a growl as a bandolier snagged the note and shoved it into his pocket. "The only thing Dishonorable here is the discharge I'm about to shoot in your fucking FACE!" Mark shouted as he began to run straight at Makima, his arms shifting into double barreled shotguns.

Pierce began to rush at Makima as well, not wanting to let her get oriented with the fight.

Mark opened fire and began a dance of death with Makima. Mark continuously swapped between shotguns, rifles and even some higher caliber sniper rifles. Every time Makima moved, Mark would hit her with a different weapon she couldn't see until she was already getting shot.

Pierce used his spears to try and cut through the control devil. However she would perfectly dodge his attacks, showing the difference in their skills.

Mark kept up his onslaught, not noticing that civilians in the area had already died from the wild gun fire along with the hunters who had come to assist Makima.

Pierce backed away and popped open a bottle of Iron Boosting pills to help keep his spears sharp. He downed half the bottle and got back into the fight, this time fighting in sync with Mark to deliver devastating blows.

However the ground rumbled and the head of the fox devil shot out from beneath the fighters, taking Pierce into its mouth.

Makima summoned more ethereal chains and used them to latch onto a nearby building.

Mark gave chase with his bandoliers, firing a long range automatic rifle as he flung himself through the air.

With his free hand, Mark activated the earpiece he had spoken into earlier. "How are you looking back there?" He asked the spear hybrid.

"THIS SHIT FUCKING HURTS!"

"That's fox for you, listen, spit some blood down its throat, it hates hybrid blood!"

Mark was met with silence and a scream of disgust.

"I'm free. But now I'm covered in dog spit and I'm far away."

"Then go help the Duo at the ramen shop, don't let the fucking kid survive, that's the goal here." Mark said before having to dodged pressurized air being blasted at him.

"DON'T GET DISTRACTED MARCUS!" Makima playfully shouted from the front.

Mark stopped talking and kept firing at Makima, this time using both of his hands to rain bullets on her.

Makima had begun to dodge more efficiently in the air than she did on the ground, using her chains to course correct out of the path of Mark's bullets.

The two practically flew through the city, as Makima taunted Mark while dodging the bullets.

However, Mark knew where she was leading him. He'd been there before during a large-scale hostage situation with Makima.

With this in mind, he moved faster, knowing what she was planning to do.

With a growl of anger, Mark moved faster, knowing that now his crew had been put on the back foot.

[WITH KT]

"Do you ever shut the fuck up!?!" KT shouted as he cut the blood fiend's arm off for the third time.

"STAY SILENT AND GROVEL AT MY FEET HUMAN!" The fiend shouted at the top of her lungs as she collected more blood from the corpses of the random hunter she had been with the day prior.

"I don't do groveling." KT stated as he used his swords to block a strike from the black haired hunter coming to attack from his right.

The hunter sighed and pulled his nail back. He performed the action to summon the fox devil, however it rejected the contract, having already been wounded enough from somewhere else.

KT rushed the man, only to be stopped by the target in the middle of his dash.

The chain grinded against KT's blades as the Katana Hybrid had to plant his knee into the ground for better footing.

"Forget about me moron?" The Chainsaw Hybrid shouted.

KT gritted his teeth as he sweeped the legs out from beneath the chainsaw. "NO. But I did forget how embarrassing the Car Devil can be!" He announced before spinning in the air to plant his foot into the chainsaw devil's chest, sending the devil flying away.

As KT chased after his combatant, he heard the snake devil be summoned and being used to fight the Blood Fiend.

'Damn it Mark, hurry up and kill the target so you can help us!' KT thought to himself.

The Chainsaw Hybrid rushed forward, swinging his arms wildly, and not noticing the glint out of the corner of his eye.

KT did however and jumped away from the spear that tore through the hybrid's leg.

The Chainsaw Devil shouted in anger and pain as a second spear broke his left chainsaw, followed by a volley of smaller spears, cutting through the muscles to pin the devil on the ground.

The Katana Hybrid sighed in relief as he let one sword retract to talk to Mark.

The Spear Hybrid landed next to his fellow hybrid's, kicking the chainsaw hybrid in the ribs.

"Boss, we have captured the second target, how copy?"

"GET THE FUCK OUT OF THERE NOW!" Mark shouted through the comms, heavy gun fire coming from his end.

"Boss? What's going on" KT asked, confused.

One of the random members they had employed came to load the hybrid onto the truck, but exploded into a blast of blood.

KT's heart stopped as he realized what was happening.

"She's got enough to kill the fodder! Get the FUCK out of there!" Mark came through again. "FUCKING DIE!!!" More gun fire came through.

KT knew that the mission was a bust and dashed to Akane. She had been wounded by the Blood Fiend.

"DIE AT MY FEET!" The fiend shouted before a spear cut through her head and stuck out the other end of her mouth.

The Spear hybrid landed next to KT and Akane as he shattered a small marble onto the ground, shrouding the three of them in a orb of light.

[Bullet time Office: 14:23]

The two employees fell out onto the floor, exhausted from the Teleportation devil's effects. Only a foot away, The Spear Hybrid fell out of a similar ball of energy, however he began to regret his lunch choices as it came back up and stained Mark's floor.

The trio looked around and saw Dangan sitting on Mark's desk. Meowing before licking his paw to help clean himself. Three small piles of powder sat next to him.

"Freaky little thing." Franklin shuddered as his metal melted to slag.

"Hey! I take offense to that!" Akane shouted from the floor as KT got up and let his metal melt. She jumped up and jammed a finger into the hybrid's chest. "That cat just saved our lives, plus it's adorable."

Pierce was going to retort, until the door burst open with a wounded Marksman. He was missing the left arm and his gun barrel on his head was dented. The shade of red coming from the usually blue eyes conveyed a sense of anger unbound.

Doubly so when the hybrid's barrel fixed itself so it could blast a hole into the ground in frustration.

"Everyone here?" Mark asked as his arm regenerated and his metal slagged.

"It's four out of four, boss. What happened?" KT asked, pulling out a bottle of Iron Boosting pills and downing a few.

"That BITCH tricked me. She led me into a trap with the spider devil and violence fiend!" Mark shouted as his left arm slowly regained feeling.

Peirce scoffed. "So you, the legendary gun devil, lost?"

Mark growled and readied to flick his switch while Pierce grabbed his shoulder, ready to tear off his arm to reveal the spear beneath.

However the ringing of a phone cut the argument off.

KT answered it, allowing Akane to calm down the angered hybrids.

"Привет, это демон с оружием?"

KT was silent for a moment before shaking off the stupor. With a cough into his fist be spoke. "Нет, это катана, могу я передать сообщение?"

"Скажите Гуну, что мы готовы помочь с угрозой Контроля."

KT turned back and placed a hand over the receiver. "Boss, quit measuring your dicks and get over here. It's those Russians you know."

The hybrid sighed and walked away from the rising altercation and answered the phone. "Привет? Стрелок."

"Привет, Гонг, мы готовы послать помощь в виде множества дьявольских сил. У нас есть много вариантов. В обмен на это мы подпишем контракт, позволяющий полноценно сотрудничать с нашим собственным гибридом. The Bomb Woman."

Mark scoffed slightly before laughing. "Простите, вы сказали The Bomb Woman? Тот самый, который пытался меня взорвать, когда я был в России? Шпион?"

"Да"

Mark laughed again. "Чтобы убить эту суку, потребуется нечто большее, чем бомбы."

"Каковы тогда ваши условия?"

Mark thought for a moment. "Get me the American brothers, Your bomb girl, that damn Santa Claus and then get me in touch with China… I got an old friend to talk to."

Marksman smiled evily as he formulated a new plan. If fodder wasn't enough…

Then all they needed was more Fire Power.
