[/right][right][b][code]Cracker Barrel[/code][/b][/right][hr] Jack walked down an empty street, not all that far from where he had teleported away with Sloane and Anya after seeing Drake. He could hear the distant shouting of the Toga Conga Line marching onwards. For a moment, he allowed himself to think that they might welcome him into their nonsense. It was foolish, yes, but foolish in the way that allowed friendships to grow deeper. Jack dismissed that thought as they went off further into the night, away from where he could hear. Tonight was turning out to be a lonely one. He could've gone back to the Shadowzone and entertained himself with the remnants of his house, and all the curiosities he had gathered over the decade. At least there, in the silence of an infinite darkness, he have a place that was familiar. As Jack walked, he heard a familiar voice. Was that... He hurried along down the corner of a street, and saw him. [i]Kenshiro Murakin.[/i] He was [i]back,[/i] just like everyone else. Jack had no idea that he had managed to return... And he was confronting Emily about the [i]fucking CHALICE.[/i] Jack walked forward, about to tear that maggot into pieces before a fucking spiderweb came out of nowhere. Alone with a blur of what he assumed was a thief who had come to steal it. He couldn't recognize that Abstraction, or whoever it was that had just fucked up royally. Jack looked back and saw Emily trying to melt Ken's face off. That wasn't going to do, so Jack made an orb of darkness in one hand. He then teleported behind Emily and her rancid apparition, throwing the orb to hit her in the back of the head. It would initially feel like getting slapped with a huge blob of super glue. The shadow orb expanded and swirled around Emily's entire head like a black tornado, completely blinding her. His hood slipped off, revealing his face. [color=6644ff][i]Kenshiro![/i] My old friend, it has been [i]far[/i] too long,"[/color] He said, loudly, over what would no doubt be screams of the damned and screams of Emily Reed's bitching. [color=6644ff]"As much as I would love to make up for lost time, I'm afraid I have a thief to chase! Take care not to get too close to this one, here."[/color] He took a few steps backwards, grinning like a trickster at Babylon, who he hoped would recognize it as him taunting her to distract her long enough for Kenshiro to make a move. [color=6644ff][i]"Or[/i] the vapid excuse human she attached herself to!"[/color] Jack made a dramatic motion with one of his arms, as if he were throw a curtain in front of himself like a stage magician. He cast a spell that adorned him in a [url=https://imgs.search.brave.com/_reEF94GWSRUpbaFBi6Iz5uuov_fwd9ZVnRerzMHwZU/rs:fit:860:0:0/g:ce/aHR0cHM6Ly91cGxv/YWQud2lraW1lZGlh/Lm9yZy93aWtpcGVk/aWEvY29tbW9ucy83/LzdmL1NoYWRvd21h/bi0zLmpwZw]cloak of shadows,[/url] rendering him all but invisible in the gloom of the late night. [color=6644ff]"I will see you soon, old friend!"[/color] He exclaimed, before teleporting up to the rooftops. He saw the stranger swinging away, eyed up a spot along her path, and teleported out in front of them. The spell he cast on himself made him blend in with the darkness, like a sort of supernatural camouflage. He quickly stuck out his shadow hand, hoping he could grab the thief with a sneak attack before they had time to react and realize someone was even there. [color=6644ff]"That does [i]not[/i] belong to you."[/color]
