As the beam came down, there was one final flash as Alto entered God Speed Flash yet again. Three times in a row wasn't very easy. He was a little unsteady on his feet, but he didn't let it show. Their little skirmish was over now, but it felt as if it was just a taste of what was to come. Hopefully it wouldn't come too soon. He shook his head. It would be clear soon enough.

Despite the unexpected nature of the night, he had been expecting the past to catch up with him some day. He was strong enough to face it now, but who could say what lay in the future? It seemed he needed to set his sights forward, now more than ever.

The room Brutus entered was empty again. The window was open and the curtain was billowing in the wind. Suddenly, a message appeared on Brutus' phone.

[quote=King]
Alto's got a car downstairs. If you find anyone knocked out, bring 'em down.

King, wherever he really was always seemed to have impeccable timing. It seemed true for almost everyone, enemy and ally.

[b][color=red]"So, why is it that you are here before me?"[/color][/b] Clara asked.

In front of her stood a very familiar gaudily clad figure with a grin on his face.

[b][color=yellow]"I was looking for a missing cat,"[/color][/b] King replied innocently.

[b][color=red]"That doesn't look like a missing cat."[/color][/b] Clara replied, looking at the body draped over King's shoulder.

[b][color=yellow]"And that sure as hell doesn't look like a savory activity."[/color][/b] He said, referring to the worm currently stretching out from Clara's finger to enter the other unconscious student's ear.

[b][color=red]"...Granted."[/color][/b] Clara said, getting up on her feet. [b][color=red]"Still, to seek me out like this, you must have a reason."[/color][/b]

[b][color=yellow]"I wasn't looking for you, just this guy over here."[/color][/b] King said, walking over and taking the other unconscious student over his other shoulder.

[b][color=red]"Aren't you siding with them?"[/color][/b]

[b][color=yellow]"That worm of yours isn't going to be found unless you want them to be found, right? Well, I could do something about it if I felt the need to, but I want you both to owe me a little."[/color][/b]

Some words came to mind, she didn't remember who had said them, but they were significant none the less. "If you can't be medicine or poison, then all you are is water." She would have thought that the Vigilantes would have been as such. So many 'neutral' parties she had witnessed failed to be either, and simply became nothing. The Vigilantes however, had yet to become truly one or the other, like many others of their type. But their leader King, felt as if he could make them become anything.

[b][color=yellow]"I'm headed off for a bit, I can tell them I saw you, but it's not as if you'll be staying here for too long, is it?"[/color][/b]

[b][color=red]"No, I don't think I will be."[/color][/b]

King waved, or about as close as you could really get with bodies draped over both shoulders, and flew out the window.

[b][color=red]"Let's continue, Yuuto."[/color][/b] Clara said with a sigh. The ninja was hidden, but it was likely such a thing didn't really mean anything against King. [b][color=red]"We have some more targets to pursue."[/color][/b]
