———Cross's POV———

I can't believe he fucking did it. Of course it has to be him. Who else would just wear fucking black?! I'm honestly pissed on how he already knew who we were.

Ink and the other skeletons came back to the office to check the surveillance around Geno's house. Just as we made it to the building, we saw a decent sized skeleton wearing a purple shirt with a blue trimming and dark brown trousers. He looked as if he was scared out of his mind because I could see him visibly shake.

"Hiya! Welcome to New York Police Department! How may we help you?" Ink asked politely as usual.

"H-hi. My n-name is..is," the poor skeleton looked pretty shaken up because he couldn't speak properly. Ink glanced at Dream who immediately went to the skeleton's side and lead him to one of the rooms.

"What happened to him? He seems so..sad," Blue commented. I nodded as I looked at Ink.

"There is suddenly a lot of cases. Well, let's not be waiting. We've got a gang to stop, an assassin to be caught and a friend to be rescued," Ink said with determination. Just then the siren went off.

"Alert to all officers. Make you way to the Square. We have an attack going on," the speakers shouted out calmly.

"Guess we got to go the the Square," I responded quickly as I brought out my knife.

Let's kill the assassin, Cross

———Ink's POV———

We didn't bother changing into our police uniform but we did put on bulletproof vests underneath our clothes. We obviously didn't want to reveal to the attackers that we were police.

I quickly got in the car as Cross and Blue got in as well. We sped through the city as sirens were heard all over the place. As soon as we arrived, we got out of the car and hid around the place stealthily. Cross went a different direction to fulfil our plan.

Me and Blue were soon hiding behind a building which we could see the whole Square. Officers had their guns out pointing at one person.

A person wearing completely black.

He had a huge weapon which he held rather easily and his hood covered his face. His back was facing at us so we weren't noticed. We needed to somehow capture him so we could find where Geno is. But with the details of what Cross has given them, it's gonna be a tough one.

"Put your hands in the air sir!" One of the officers shouted. He gave a small chuckle as he let the weapon drop to the ground. It was a scythe. A large one too. He then put his hands in the air and stood there. The police officer went up to him. Big mistake.

What the skeleton did next was the most shocking thing I've ever seen.

Before the officer could touch him, he suddenly disappeared and then reappeared behind him as he knocked him out with his elbow. Immediately, they all started shooting. I thought there and then he was going to die but nooo.

He had dodged ALL bullets.

No wonder it was a nightmare for Cross to arrest him.

He picked up his scythe and walked forward to the stunned officers. Before he could reach them, a blur of white and black rushed towards him. A huge clank was heard as we see Cross with his knife and the skeleton with his scythe, both blocking attacks.

———Reaper's POV———

I held my scythe as Cross managed to lunge at me. I couldn't believe that he was right in front of me. A place where I thought I could escape but apparently not.

"Missed me?" He asked jokingly as he pushed the knife against my own weapon.

"Nah. I preferred the time where I saw your face when I escaped that hellhole," I responded. I let go of the scythe and ducked the attack. I grabbed the weapon as I stood in a battling stance as he took his.

"Old times, huh," I asked. He nodded as we got ready to attack. But what happened next was sudden and totally sucked.

As I lunged at Cross, someone painted me with grey paint before disappearing.

"What the heck is this??" I asked as I rubbed off the paint from my clothes. Before I could question any further, the paint morphed into chains which wrapped around me tightly.

"How the f- "

"Reaper Renrick. You are under arrest," Cross smirked. If only I could fucking kill him there and then. Things could've been a lot better.

———Blue's POV———

"WOW INK! I DIDN'T KNOW YOU COULD DO THAT!" I shouted at Ink. He looked pretty dazed from my loud voice but what can you say? Your friend can do magic and has never shown you!

"I used to practice magic a while ago. I thought I lost my touch but apparently not!" He said cheerfully. He also seemed pretty surprised that the magic didn't backfire on him.

"I guess we got to bring this bag of shit back to the office-," Cross said as he was interrupted by an angry Reaper.

"Why don't you just shut the fuck up for one moment in your life?" Reaper looked at him threateningly.

"No not yet. I would like to ask him some questions though," Ink said.

"Where did you take our friend Geno!" I blurted out.

"Why is that any concern of you?" he responded.

"Because he is our friend?" Ink looked at him disappointedly.

"Ohh. You mean the white and red skeleton? Yeah. He's in great hands.."

———Geno's POV———

I slowly opened my eyes as I adjusted it to the brightness. Well darkness in fact. It was pretty late so I suppose it is midnight.

I slowly got up to realise the events that had happened before I was knocked out. I mentally face palmed my self as I notice that this wasn't even my room.

I carefully made my way to the door as I slowly turned the door knob. I opened the door to see....no one.

Already confused at what was currently on, I didn't hear someone walking up from behind me. When someone touched my shoulders, I whipped my head around and stood in a fighting stance.

There stood a skeleton with hat black bones with blue tears running down his cheek. He had glitches and ERRORs covering him as he wore an overall casual wear.

I stood there in shock as he tried to process in the information.

"YOU?!!"
