At the buildings...

Julie and Ash found the switch and they quickly switched it on.

"Looks like our work here is done" said Ash.

Ash suddenly noticed that Julie was worried about something.

"Is there something bothering you?" Ash asked.

"N-Nothing... it's just that I have a bad feeling about what's going to happen sooner or later" she replied.

Ash walk towards her and pats her on the head.

"Once this is over, I'll take the year off and spend the time with you as a father" said Ash.

Julie was relieved on what Ash said.

"S-Stop patting me dad, it looks like a kid is patting me on the head" said Julie.

"W-Well it can't be helped that I stayed being in my high school body for years" said Ash.

"I hope Ace and the others are okay" said Julie.

Ash grabbed her and pull her to the other direction.

Daggers suddenly came out of knowhere and it almost hit Julie.

"What's that?!" Said Julie.

"Looks like our opponent has showed up" said Ash.

Their opponent walk towards them.

"I'm surprised that you managed to sense those. I guess we can't really underestimate a council member" said Charlotte.

"It's you..." said Julie.

Meanwhile...

On the streets...

After turning on the switch, Max and Ezra are already fighting the enemy.

Max: Damn it... of all the enemy, it has to be this guy.

Hit laughs on what Max just said.

Hit: Now then, shall we continue our battle from last time.

Ezra summoned swords and threw it at him.

The swords curved around Hit and went straight back at Ezra, but she dodged it perfectly.

Ezra: This is gonna be a tough one.

Max: Everytime we strike our magic at him, it always comes back and attacks us instead.

Hit: Looks like you two aren't so tough without your magics.

Max surrounds his fists with wind.

Max: Wind Gauntlet!

Hit: Show me what you got.

Max charges in while he clenched his fists.

Hit isn't even moving from where he is standing.

Ezra: Max!

Max noticed the swords came back around.

Max quickly tries to evade, but his shoulder was wounded by one of the swords.

Max: Damn it!

Ezra charges in also.

Ezra: If we can't use magic, then we just have to attack him with our fists!

Ezra tries to hit him, but he grabs Ezra's hand and slammed her down.

Hit: Don't think that I can't fight at close range.

Max: Can we even stand against this guy?!

Max sensed someone behind him.

He looked behind and saw that it was Hansel.

Max: Good timing! Let's defeat this guy toget--

Hansel points the gun at Max.

Max: Huh?

Hansel fired at him.

Ezra: MAX!!!!

Hit: Looks like she got 'em.

Hansel's eyes are lifeless.

Hansel: You are the enemy...

Alice hugs Hansel.

Alice: Good boy.

Max falls down on the ground.
