“Wh-h-h-hat is your pn?”

  Sitting on Cyrus's Shoulders, I say, “I am going to need you to run around, and shout what I tell you all over the city. To make sure this goes well I need no stuttering.”

  “I-I-I-I-I am not s-s-s-sure I ca-a-a-a-a-an do that.”

  Using my tails, I cover Cyrus's fad say, “I know talking to people be scary, but I guarantee you that the sensation from toug my tails is stronger, so if you feel worried just focus in on that, and remember I believe in you.”

  “I will try my best.”

  “That’s a goon, now let's go.”

  Running at full speed Cyrus moves in the dire I point him in. He is so ridiculously fast that I feel like I have just been dropped from a hundred meters in the sky. He really is a physical monster, oh I really wish I could fight him.

  After reag a highly poputed area I signal Cyrus to stop, and then I whisper in his ears, “Shout this.”

  “EVERYONE PERCY HAS BEEN FOUND, REPORT T-T-TO JETER’S RESIDENCE IMMEDIATELY!!!”

  Upon hearing Cyrus's overwhelming voice everyoops in surprise. This is exactly what I wanted. Putting my hands on my head I say, “I o get prepared.”

  I suddenly feel a surge of thoughts aions forced into my head. When everyone hears Cyrus scream, they all immediately fet what they are doing and their heads clear so it is easier to sort through them, and si certain thoughts.

  My issue was that going through all the information in these people's heads to find who I was looking for, was almost impossible so instead, I should just make the person I was looking for have certain thoughts and feelings.

  Upon hearing Cyrus's annou, he should feel fused knowing that he hasn’t been caught, unlike everyone one else who will feel relieved or surprised.

  “He isn’t here, let's move on to the zone Cyrus.”

  “Right,” he says taking off at full speed.

  Running all over the city Cyrus screams and screams, while I tio gh everyone’s heads.

  Did they really find Percy?

  I heard a bunch of people saying they did.

  Wasn’t that Suzuka and Cyrus, it must be true then, I see no reason for those two to lie.

  Mommy, why is Pering back at a big event?

  I am going to duff that bastard right i.

  You’re letting him off easy, I am going crush his balls.

  This is great, I o recall all the search teams.

  Oh, big bro Percy is back, I hope he has stories from kig Gevurah's butt.

  What the hell is going on, I haven’t been caught, is this some sort of Ruse?

  This must be him! “Cyrus, he is over in that dire, run full speed ahead.”

  -Break-

  Φ “Mime, what should we do, at this rate we’re going to be uo sell anything for money?”

  “Anto, don’t worry, we will just get one of those flying wonderbeasts out of Skydust.”

  “But Mime, don’t they know our face.”

  “Fool have you fotten thieves rule number 5; always have a disguise, so that if you actally it war crimes while drunk, you get away scot-free.”

  “Right Mime, let’s get to pag.”

  “We will take our stuff here back to where we keep that giant scarf, then we will fly straight off of Skydust. A fwless pn,” I say as me and Anto start to ugh.

  Suddenly Anto says, “Mime get ready, something is ing!!” The moment he says this ice bursts throw the side of the building directly at us.

  Grabbing me, Anto throws a dagger and is us to a new location, but the ice still flows directly at us, so I use my dagger and I strike it iing and breaking it to pieces.

  But out of that wave of ice springs Orb. “I am back.”

  Staring at his princely face I freeze for a moment which almost allows him to catch me, but Anto grabs me away just in time.

  “Anto, we o get out of here

  “But what about our stuff?”

  “We will e back for it ter, right now we o move.”

  Φ “Right,” I say throwing my dagger. If it covers a bit more distance we teleport all the way over to the building. Suddenly, I see something hit my dagger mid-air and knock it far away.

  What was that?

  “Anto what is taking so long, he is ing!”

  Φ As Orb runs towards me and Anto I use my dagger to ihe floor and burst it open.

  “Not good enough, I already know your tricks.” Without a single wasted sed Orb freezes the roof with ice.

  “I break that as well,” I say as I try to strike the ice, but suddenly it turns into snow and I miss.

  Pulling my hand back to try and regain my lost footing, I see the snow has turned bato ice again, so I try to i it yet again, but whenever I strike it all the ice turns to snow.

  “I told you, I know you’re tricks.”

  Thieves rule 6; Don’t use spirit energy unless you have to, it will pletely give away your position. I guess this qualifies as having too, “I will fight you head-on then.”

  Using spirit energy on my legs I charge forward, but when I try to take a big step forward the ice turns into snow and I lose my footing.

  Orb uses this moment to dash straight as me. I guess I have no choice; I focus my spirit energy into my right arm then I throw my dagger directly at Orb's legs; this will i his limb and re useless, I really didn’t want to use this but I have no choice. Sorry prince.

  Suddenly, in mid-air, my dagger is knocked away. Then all the snow I was sinking into turned bato ice.

  Orb says, “Thanks for the assist, Atanta.”

  I am stuck he is going to catch me.

  Φ Running to the stuck Mime, I hold her then I use my lega 3 daggers, then in 3 different dires, I throw each dagger as hard as I . Someone is hitting all of my daggers out of the air, so all I got to do is make it more difficult.

  Φ Three at once smart thinking, but if you think I ’t hit these your io. Weaving a spirit arrow, I fire a curved arrow and hit all three daggers into the sky.

  Φ Staring at Orb, I stiy tongue and say, “Bleh,” as I i our position.

  Looking around at my new position, I see that we are not across the building like I hoped, but instead, I am in the sky. I see all my daggers up in the sky as well. They were able to hit even three at once.

  “Anto, he is ing!”

  Looking down I see Orb approag us from the bottom. Throwing Mime two daggers I say, “Those plus the two I have on me are all that is left.”

  “Then we have to win.”

  When Orb approaches, we nd on the pilr of ice Orb used to get up to us. It is small and in the shape of a circle.

  “If you 2 give up now, I promise I won’t punish you too hard.”

  “We refuse prihis is for our dream.”

  “Until we have a house posed of chocote and dy, we won’t stop.”

  Φ Both Anto and Mime charge at me, and attack with a furry of swings. If even one of those swings hits me either my thought process will be ied or my flesh will.

  So, since defleg their attacks isn’t an option, I dodge them, but it is incredibly hard; not only are they fast but their coordination is ridiculous, I feel like the moment one gives me an opening the other makes sure I ’t capitalise on it. I ’t even find an opportunity to create ice or turn my pilr into the snow.

  The footing we’re on is small, so I am not able to make the best use of the space, uhe twins. This situation is too disadvantageous, all I do is wait for their stamina to run out before mine.

  Out of nowhere light files between me and both the twins, it is Atanta’s arrows. I really am going to o thaer.

  Using the opportunity she made for me I lightly tap both kids to the end of the pilr, and then I vert it all into snow which makes us all fall down towards the ground.

  Moving toward Mime as we fall she throws her dagger at me while I hear Anto throw his dagger at me iher dire, they are trying to pincer me when I have less movement, these kids really are thinking of winning even in this situation.

  Turning the snow falling down from my pilr into ice, I stop Anto’s dagger then I move my body to dodge Mime’s dagger. Using the newly make pilr as footing I jump towards Mime using snow boost.

  When I am about to catch the falling Mime in my hands, she uses her hands and tumbles from my head to my legs, then when she reaches my feet, she pces her feet against them and kicks off away from me.

  “I am not that easy of a prio catch.”

  Missing her, I fall down into the snow.

  Φ Grabbing Anto mid-air I say, “Let’s use the buildings as cover, to switch.”

  “Alright, Mime.”

  When we nd I see a giant wave of Snow ing after us, “Anto hurry up.”

  “I am!”

  Φ Throwing the dagger uhe buildings I grab Mime and jump off the building. “Mime just ahree seds.”

  Φ The wave of snow will hit us before we switch. Putting spirit energy into my legs I kito forward, the force of the kick sends me to the ground out of the reach of the snow.

  “Sister!”

  “Be safe Anto.” Anto switches out of my sight being repced with a beam.

  A rge rs through my ears, looking to my left I see a bull Wonderbeast charging straight at me. trying to move I feel intense pain in my left leg, I ’t move like this, I am going to get crushed!

  Φ “You bastards better hurry up before the Benelium sets or I will kill you all.”

  Thanks to all the help the super strong boy gave me yesterday, the stru on my magnum opus has sped up quite a bit, I might even have it finished by the end of this week.

  Letting out a series of ughs I say, “I WILL FINALLY TRANSD INTO A HIGHER BEING.”

  Staring at my building I suddenly see 1 of the beams disappear and it is repced with a small child.

  Φ Looking up I see that a series of objects are about to fall over my head, “Mime, master I am sorry.”

  But before they hit me, I am suddenly pulled out of the way. What follows this is a sensation of unbelievable softness.

  Looking up I see that I am in the arms of that beautiful woman. “A boy like you reciates me ’t die here you got that.”

  Uo hold back tears, I cry, “I was so scared!!”

  “There, there little o will be alright.”

  Φ Right before the wonderbeast runs over me I am pulled away. Looking up at who saved me I see my prince, Orb.

  “Saving your brother like that takes real guts you’re really amazing.”

  Seeing his face, I colpse in his arms and say, “To perfect.”

  “Now to make sure where eve in there.”

  “What are you talking about?”

  Orb pulls me bad then throws me forward, suddenly I am stopped by a bunushy stuff, looking around where I nded I see I am covered in shit.
