the teleporter returns

The zodiacs laid down with some on chairs and some on the floor "wait a minute.." Lucy starts to do a headcount "shit we're missing Dylan, where the fuck is he." Lucy grabs his phone and frantically dials Dylan's number.

Dylan sits up and rubs his head with his left eye scarred "shit where the hell am I?" he looks around to see snow "awe fuck I'm in Russia!" he stands up and sees penguins "hmm, must be migrating." Dylan dusts the snow off him "gee golly how am I gonna get back." Dylan teleports back to the zodiacs. "yo." Dylan saw that they were all strangely looking at him "what?" Dylan checks his body "oh the eye, yeah don't worry it's fine." Dylan sits beside dorek and teleports a can of cream soda into his hand *crack* there's a cackle heard in the corner of the dark ceiling. "ba hahaha! looks like someone didn't keep an eye out!" Dylan grows frustrated "shut up you half spider freak!" he throws the empty can at the corner but there's no crash heard all that's heard is the dripping of what's left in the can. London crawls out of the shadow "what, you should have seen that?" Dylan teleports up to London and kicks her in the face "little shit!" Lucy extends his arm and grabs Dylan bringing him back down "no fighting, Philip." Phil summons his spirit chains and grabs Dylan and Olivia "hey let me g-" a clamp goes around London's mouth shutting her up "alright, Dylan say you're sorry." Dylan is confused "why should I say sorry!?" Lucy smacks Dylan on the head "ouch! fine I'm sorry." the chains slither back into the ground "alright good, now since that Zeke fella has been captured we'll need to take out that highest power guy ourselves." "boss, why did you wanna take down that Pete kid if killing him is your goal?" Lucy chuckles and points over to dorek with no blindfold on, his clockwork eyes slowly ticking, *tick, tick, tick, tock* Dylan looks confused "what happened to your blindfold?" Dylan looks around for it "I won't be needing that anymore Dylan." he said holding a closed book in his hands "dorek, Phil, London, Valerie, Dylan, bernard and Dan, I say it's time we change this world!" Lucy shouts raising his fist "the zodiacs will reign supreme!"

emerald laid at Kevin's grave with hair let down, silent as ever with Kevin's sword leaning on his tombstone, he looks at it with dread "why did you take the hit?" he asked expecting an answer "if you and sheila just backed off you two would have been fine!" he yells at the tombstone "the only person who would have died is me! but your selfish ass took the hit!" Spencer walks up behind emerald and hugs him from behind "it's okay, it's not your fault either so please stop beating yourself up about it." Spencer comforted emerald and picks him up off the ground and takes him to his home. "here have some diet cola." Spencer hands him a glass of cola and they both have a chat "so emerald what's on your mind?" Spencer asked looking deep into emeralds eyes, after emerald was asked that question he started to break down "ever since I saw..." images of Lucy start running through his head "that thing killed Kevin and sheila I can't do it anymore, all I wanna do is kill them!" Spencer nods his head "and after you kill them?" that question left emerald baffled, what will he do when he kills Lucy "I'll, I'll..." he looks at his hands "look emerald, I know how you feel Kevin was like the cook uncle to me and I too want to kill that thing, but you need yo realise that he's gone." Spencer pulls out his phone and scrolls through it "oh hey it's one of the highest powers single-handedly destroying the Irish mob, wonder how long till they start searching for us." Spencer kicks back and relaxes "oh shit he's disintegrating them!" Spencer said in shock "we'll also send you to the moon." the highest light appeared behind him "ah!" Spencer quickly falls back while emerald grabs his swords, the highest power was looking at emerald and Spencer like they were stray dogs on the street "good," he checks his watch "evening gentlemen." the highest light takes a seat and makes a hair comb out of light and starts to style his hair, he looks around to see bookshelves "ooh you read, what type of genre?" he asked as Spencer slowly pulls himself up "mostly fantasy but I like to read sci-fi from time to time." the highest light smirked "nice choices, I'm personally a drama and dystopian type." emerald stares down the highest light "why have you not killed us yet?" emerald asked with anger. "calm down young man, I'm just hearing because I was told to be here." he pulls a note pad out of his pocket and starts to draw. "well who sent you?" "my boss you idiot." Spencer places his thumb on his pointer fingers knuckle, but emerald signalled Spencer to stop.

the highest aim gets into position, aims her garand at the window waits for her signal "hey dick head, don't miss." Sasha told her sister "I won't split lip." she eases her breathing. "Emily, now please." the highest light asked, Emily, pulls the trigger sending a bullet flying towards Spencer but emerald slices the bullet in half and throws his sword towards Emily, as the sword flies towards her she dodges it and fires another bullet at emerald but he slices it in half, "Spencer, run away!" Spencer cracks his knuckle and breaks a giant hole in his wall and jumps through it "oh no you don't you brat!" Emily hoists her garand over her shoulder and she starts chasing down Spencer from the rooftops, emerald looks back at the highest light still sitting in the chair drawing "are you not gonna... stop us?" emerald asked confused "no I need to finish this drawing, you just carry on." emerald jumps through the broken wall and starts to chase down Emily, he hoists back his arm "let it rip!" he spins up the building Emily was on and grabs his sword then spins down the street.

Emily pulls out an M1911 pistol and fires at Spencer, hitting him in the hand, emerald spins beside him "emerald I'm going right, you follow along ok?" Spencer runs down the alley and emerald follows along, Emily grabs a grenade, pulling the pin with her teeth and she then throws it down the alley. Spencer cracks his knuckle and blows the grenade back at Emily with it an inch away from her face.

the highest light flies in and throws the grenade into the atmosphere "so you finally finished that drawing ay?" Emily asked with her head sweating a river "yes and I'm proud of it, my daughter will love it." he boasted "well good for you but we kinda need to kill those people." right now." she puts her M1911 back into its holster and looks at the highest light "hey Jesse go and fetch my bolt action." Jesse seemingly teleports the bolt action into his hands and then tosses it towards Emily "thanks, now either go back home or chase down those two." Emily grabs the bolt and pulls it back to see she has five rounds and then pushes it back, emerald and Spencer hide behind a dumpster with emerald treating Spencer's wound "calm down the wound isn't fatal." emerald reassures him "well emerald for your information, getting shot suprisingly hurts alot!" emerald bites down on his sleeve and wraps it around the wound. the clanging of metal can be heard and so emerald pulls down Spencer, narrowly avoiding a bullet "great now she's making them ricochet off scrap metal? what's next." Spencer exclaimed with confusion.

Emily pulls back the bolt with the shell flying out and clanging as it hits the floor, she picks up her tools and drops down from the building "come on out you two." she says holding her garand, the emerald looks at Spencer and signals him to run but then Emily hears some footsteps behind her, she aims her weapon but a hand grabs the barrel and transforms it into human skin causing her to drop it out of fear, emerald peers around the corner to see Lucy with dorek and bernard "bernard." bernard walks up to Emily and then looks them up and down "Emily Olivia, 18 years old, born in 2003, favourite food beef stroganoff and her superpower are basically that her eyes are like a telescope mixed with binoculars." Emily is confused but she pulls out her M1911 and points it at Lucy instantly pulling the trigger making his head flinch backwards "oh no," dorek said in a monotone voice, Lucy slowly merges the bullet with their skin healing them, Lucy shakes his head "anyways, that fucking hurt." they rub their head "Lucy you can yourself what are you complaining about?" "I can still feel pain jackass!" bernard walks over to dorek and reaches into their pocket and pulls out a bag of chips "hey you little twerp!" "cry me a river." he said while crunching down on the chips "now you, Emily Olivia, I wanna make an offer you can't refuse." Lucy said with an untrusting smirk but that causes her to aim her pistol "go on then, tell me you pale piece of playdough." Emily insults them but Lucy keeps their cool "alright, how about you join the zodiacs?" Emily pulls the trigger and sends three rounds into Lucy's torso "I'll take that as a no." dorek starts walking back to the hideout with bernard. Lucy turns their left hand into a steel claw and then thrusts it towards Emily's head but emerald runs up and blocks the hit, confusing both Emily and Spencer "what the hell emerald!?" Spencer shouts but emerald doesn't answer as they struggle with Lucy's claw, "why must we always run into each other?" Lucy turns their right arm into a long steel blade and tries to stab emerald in the stomach but he deflects it with his second blade "hey you, gun bitch take that idiot friend of mine out of here." "I heard that!" Emily grabs Spencer and climbs up a pipe, the bullets pop out of Lucy's body falling to the ground "ah real shame I was hoping to get you with that one, seems we are too predictable." Lucy has wings spurt out of their back and they fly backwards "yeah it would seem so." emerald tightens his grip on his blades "so tell me why'd you stop me from killing that woman, does someone have a crush?" Lucy mocks emerald with his wings flapping "no I just don't want someone to die by a walking piece of playdough." Lucy scoffs "I am not a walking piece of playdough!" Lucy breaks off the steel blade of an arm and turns it into a javelin

"I am something to be fearful of!" he aims the javelin at emeralds head but the emerald swings his sword at the javelin taking it down, the javelin then suddenly wraps around emeralds sword "huh?" the javelin then grows tendrils and stick the ends of the tendrils into the nearby wall, merging with the wall and pulling the blade out of emeralds hand bringing it to the floor. emerald then puts his left hand around his singular sword and looks directly at Lucy with a glare radiating a menacing aura "one sword is all I need." emerald then rushes Lucy with his sword on his right side "ha pathetic, I've seen this all before." Lucy flies towards emerald but then emerald slams his blade into Lucy's neck but Lucy doesn't even bother to notice "I've seen this all before emerald, your just a one-trick pony!" Lucy turns his neck into the shell of an armadillo, emerald chuckles leaving Lucy confused but he feels the slightest bit of fear which causes him to cover the armadillo shell with scales and steel.

"a one-trick pony ay?" emerald then grabs the handle of their sword-like they're hanging on for dear life and then they start to spin *fwo, food, floor, woohoo* it starts slow but then turns into a rapid motion, "what the hell is this trick!?" Lucy demands to know what's going on "well if I'm honest linfer I'm making this up on the spot." emerald states, he spins faster and faster confusing and scaring him even more, the cut grows deeper and deeper with each spin and then emerald slices Lucy's head off and lands stoically with their blade out pointing left.

Lucy's head plopped onto the ground with his body falling to the ground with it acting like a lizard's tail, emerald walks up to Lucy's head and pokes it with his blade "I know you're not dead, if me turning you to mush doesn't kill you then I don't know what will." emerald scoffs at Lucy's head and walks off and grabs his sword "this is like what? the 50th time I've killed y-" as emerald turns around to be met with Lucy's headless body with his hand in emeralds stomach, tendrils sprout from Lucy's neck and reattach the head with it slowly slithering back onto his neck "well, seems our many fights must come to an end." blood slowly pours out from emeralds mouth, Lucy quickly pulls his arm out with it covered in blood

"you *cough* bastard." emerald falls to the ground holding his wound, Lucy grabs his bloodied arm and tears it off, then turns it Into a spear and sticks it right through emeralds shoulder "ah!" emerald puts pressure on his stomach "well goodbye emerald and good riddance." Lucy tips their hat and walks off with glee. emerald laid there wondering if he'd live, but emerald pushes through it and grasps onto the javelin yanks it out and drops it onto the floor, he then sheaths his swords and holds onto his stomach while relying heavily on the wall to keep him up "well *cough* at least I'm still alive." emerald makes out onto the street and looks around at the people, nobody comes to help him and he lays on the ground.

Phil walks up to dying emerald and kneels, poking his body with his scythe but the only response he can get is emerald looking up at him "well if he can't finish the job I guess I'll have to do it." Phil pulls out one of his jars with strange writings on them, Phil raises his scythe and brings it down.

the blade is stopped by Pete's arm, with it digging in his arm "hey you turd head, what do you think you're doing?" Phil looks away from Pete and looks at Sam, Frank and James. Sam wore a big black hoodie, blue jeans, sandals and a backpack, Frank wore his scarf still covering his mouth, a black tank top, baggy pants and shark earrings. James wore the same clothes but with a different colour tie and Pete had his fluffy jacket tied around his waist, ripped T-shirt and torn jeans and his cape perfectly fine. "hey, just what are you doing."
