Back at the mostly-empty WCL building, a hooded figure approaches the front door, and stops outside, before unsheathing a double-sided lightsaber and using it to cut a hole straight through the door. Slave the Duel Guy lowers his hood, ready to get his revenge on Boneregard after having finally tracked down his whereabouts. Slave walks inside, twirling his lightsaber around menacingly.
"WHERE IS BONEREGARD?!" demands Slave. The only people to respond to this are Bunny and Bunny's Shadow, who both emerge from their office.
"He's out right now." Bunny's Shadow says.
"Yeah, we can take a message if you have one." Bunny adds.
"A message, you say? So you're affiliated with that scum? Well, how's this for a message! LYNYRD SKYNYRD!" Slave's Stand appears, taking the form of a headpiece with goggles. With this ability, he is able to see the future movements of those he is up against, which, combined with his lightsaber prowess, makes him essentially unbeatable in one-on-one combat.
"Uh…how do I spell that? Also, what does that even mean?" Bunny scrunches his face in confusion, but Slave doesn't answer, simply lunging towards Bunny. Bunny tries to dodge to the right, but Slave perfectly foresees the movement, searing through Bunny's arm with his lightsaber. Bunny throws a punch at Slave in an attempt at retaliation, but Slave catches it with ease, and holds Bunny in place as he stabs him through the abdomen with his lightsaber. Bunny slumps down against the wall as Slave drags the blade upwards, slicing him in two from the stomach up, while Bunny's Shadow looks on in horror.
"Dude, what the hell! We just…what's wrong with you?!" Bunny's Shadow has no clue how to react, and Slave turns to face him, striking fear into him with his gaze. Suddenly, though, Collide manifests over Bunny's dead body, and floats over to Bunny's Shadow, resting one of its hands atop Bunny's Shadow's head, becoming the Stand of Bunny's Shadow instead of Bunny. As Bunny's Shadow is already a shadow, and has no shadow itself, Collide's ability to bring its user's shadow to life is not present with this new bearer of the Stand, and instead, it has gained the ability to bring to life the shadows of others to serve its user, albeit in a less permanent fashion than its original ability. With this new ability, Bunny's Shadow is able to bring Slave's shadow to life, and has said shadow grab hold of Slave's lightsaber. Slave doesn't see this coming, since he wasn't watching behind him, so his weapon is successfully taken away, and he's left emptyhanded. Despite this, Slave still rushes towards Bunny's Shadow, and begins brawling with him with his bare hands, still having an advantage due to his precognitive capabilities. However, Slave's shadow is still subservient to Bunny's Shadow, and before Slave can cause any significant damage to Bunny's Shadow, Slave's shadow stabs Slave through the chest with his own lightsaber. Slave manages a single gasp as he falls to the ground next to Bunny's corpse.
"Bone…regard…" Slave growls with disdain, as he draws his final breath. Bunny's Shadow kicks Slave in the head and spits on his dead body, before taking his lightsaber to keep, as Slave's shadow melts into nothingness.
As the WCL members approach the PID, they find that, contrary to their expectation, it is not completely unguarded. Quite the contrary in fact, as someone jumps down from the overhang in front of the door to stand in their way.
"Death is unavoidable." says Cornoix, designated night guard of the PID.
"Outta the way." Boneregard says, pushing past Cornoix to use his Skeleton Key to open up the door. Boneregard manages to unlock the door, but is quickly yanked back by Cornoix.
"Excuse me, but this building isn't open at this hour. Try again tomorrow between 9 and 6." Cornoix says, before punching Boneregard in the face. The rest of the WCL members get ready to attack Cornoix, but before they can do anything, the hulking form of the Denimizer jumps down all the way from the roof, crushing Cornoix into a starchy stain. The Denimizer seems to have taken particular interest in Crime Lad, who is still wearing its fallen comrade. Dinomundo promptly jumps forwards to take on the Denimizer, but finds that the punches he throws at the monster don't deal nearly as much damage as they usually do, since the lightweight cloth nature of the Denimizer's body significantly decreases the impact of Dinomundo's attacks. The Denimizer walks past Dinomundo, striding menacingly towards Crime Lad.
"INFINITE POWER!" shouts Blight, as his Stand blasts a hole through the Denimizer's body. The Denimizer drops to the ground, but only stays down for a few seconds before standing back up and continuing to approach Crime Lad.
"What's your deal? You think I'm scared of the 'blolly blue jeanant'?" Crime Lad snickers. The Denimizer raises its arm, and is about to bring it down toward Crime Lad, but Lunch's station wagon manifests nearby and rams into the Denimizer, knocking it far out of the way.
"Ey, you guys comin' in or not?" Chiminal says from inside the Pole Ice Department, opening the door. "We got crimes to do!"
Chiminal walks into the inky blackness of the PID, which is completely dark due to it being the dead of night and the lights being off. Because of this, Chiminal treads directly on top of a wild snok, alerting the nearby Snok Charmer and prompting her to rise from within the bottom drawer of a filing cabinet.
"WHO treadst on the snok?!" Snok Charmer demands, being completely blind in this environment due to her dark glasses. When nobody responds, Snok Charmer sends forth three snoks to find the perpetrator of the foul act. Lunch freezes in place entirely, and the rest of the WCL members follow his example, save for Chiminal, who doesn't seem to care whatsoever. The snoks locate Chiminal, and recognize his feet as the ones that tread upon the first snok, and as such all three snoks jab their tongues into Chiminal's ankle and inject him with three different dangerous and deadly venoms, killing him within seconds. The snoks then return to the Snok Charmer, who descends back into the depths of the filing cabinet.
"Can we turn the light on or something?" Crime Lad groans. Boneregard locates the light switch and turns it on, illuminating the interior of the PID. Dinomundo begins raiding the offices for documents, while Blight starts rummaging through the lost and found in search of anything worthwhile. Blight finds that the back wall of the locker is wribbling and scrabbling, and he pulls on it, peeling it off of the wall. In doing this, Blight frees B'leech the truthseeker, the homunculus which was crammed behind it. Blight is disappointed that this isn't some kind of ultimate weapon, so he ignores B'leech as it crawls onto him, instead digging deeper into the lost and found. Blight finds a shiny and sparkly handle, and grabs hold of it, and with a satisfying squelch, Blight pulls out the Multima Cutter of Shamazonian legend. As Blight's eyes twinkle with delight, B'leech lets out a horrible sc'reech, and scampers away into the darker depths of the PID, coming across a key in somebody's office, which it takes with it as it jumps out of a window and into the streets.
"Oh shit, the sun's coming up, we'd better finish up quickly." Crime Lad says, as sunlight begins to stream through the windows. "Make it look like we were never here!"
Dinomundo comes into the front of the PID with armfuls of photocopied documents, and Blight puts everything back in the lost and found. Boneregard turns off the lights on the way out, as everyone exits through the front door, ready to return to the WCL.
