Chapter 12 - Chapter 12: Sorry kid

The assassin squad arrives and splits up to find their targets. Cuts to Ryu getting off a dino kart and goes to find a beverage shop in the park.

"Hi there, what can I get you!" - barkeep

"One beer please" - Ryu

"Coming right up...mind if I ask how old are you." - Barkeep

"Eighteen, why?" - Ryu

"Here you go, and don't worry I don't really care I just like to ask." - barkeep

"Thanks" - Ryu as he hands over money

"Sips...tastes like shit, I don't get the hype bout beer." - Ryu

He goes over and tries playing shateki, a shooting gallery game.

"Can I try playing" - Ryu

"Sure, one air gun here" - game operator

Ryu picks it up and aims for the targets, misses

"Dammit" - Ryu

Aims again and misses the second try

"Third time's the charm" - man next to him

Ryu stares at him and aims at the targets, successfully hitting them

"Thanks" - Ryu saying to the man

"You must not be really good with guns huh kid." - man

"Yeah, not my favorite toy" - Ryu

"It's a shame" - man

As Ryu starts strolling he's approached by the assassin team

The man next to him walks up

"By the order of the KNJ organization, we have to assassinate you, Ryu Hasashi." - man

"...Oh so y'all jumping me" - Ryu

"Name's Daichi, and it's nothing personal kid, just doing our jobs." - Daichi

"Oh no you've got it all wrong, I've been waiting for something to happen, whole night's been boring." - Ryu as his eye tattoo glows

"Now...let's get active" - Ryu

Cuts to Kai and Shimo leaving the roller coaster

"We should check up on the others." - Shimo

"Relax bro the night is still young-" - Kai

"Kai look out!!" - Shimo as he pulls Kai's hand and runs

Bullets start to fly and people start to panic and scatter

"I knew this was a bad idea!" - Shimo

"Calm down...there's only five of them" - Kai

Bullets stop

"...Is the coast clear?" - Shimo

"Sounds like it" - Kai

"Alright then" - Shimo

Shimo then creates an ice fog to make cover for them. They start to fight and quickly unarm them.

"Who are you people!?" - Shimo

"We have been ordered to assassinate you." - woman

"Assassinate!?" - Kai and Shimo

"By the order of the KNJ organization, we have to kill you!" - woman

"Aight then, let's do this!" - Kai as his arm tattoo glows

"What a night this turned out to be." - Shimo as he takes off his winter jacket

Cuts to Jin and Chiko playing ring toss

"The display show was nice." - Chiko

"..."

"So you gonna ignore me all night-" - Chiko

"What if he's a part of the cult?" - Jin

"I'm sorry what?" - Chiko

"It all makes sense now. Maybe that's why-" - Jin

"Look just stop! I should've never told you any of this. I don't wanna be the reason you guys fall apart." - Chiko

"Well maybe you shouldn't have!" - Jin as throws a ring into a bottle and wins

"...I'm sorry" - Chiko

"No I'm sorry I-I shouldn't have shouted at you." - Jin

"... It's ok, I messed up too" - Chiko

Game operator gives Jin a Eurasian Eagle-Owl as the prize

"Oh...thank you!" - Jin

"He's so cute, can I hold him!" - Chiko

"Sure...anyway we should look for the oth-" - Jin

The whole vicinity gets stunned by flash grenades and Kenny finally meets Jin

Jin gets up

"Are you Jin Hazuki?" - Kenny

"Chiko...get out of here, now!" - Jin

"What about you...and the others" - Chiko

"I'll find them, just go home, please." - Jin

"You better not die!" - Chiko as she takes the owl and runs

"Who are you?" - Jin

"A nobody" - Kenny

Kenny grabs Jin by the throat and drags him across he ground. He then picks him up and starts gut checking and kicks him to side.

"Shit, this guy's strong" - Jin in thoughts

"Huh, why do you still look familiar?" - Kenny

"Look can't we just talk about thi-" - Jin

Kenny picks him up by the leg and starts twirling him around and finally throws him in the air

"I'm sorry kid, but it ain't my choice." - Kenny
