(We return to Ringleader who has found himself in a sticky situation while looking for Sherlock. As he left the house and began roaming the streets, he entered the tier 1 arena grounds in the low-end part of the city where he fell into a trap set up by a large group of players looking to up their kill count and gain control over a certain district of the city.) Ringleader: *standing in the center of the sandy arena grounds, looking around at the stands above and underground entrances which are guarded by the enemy*. "Heh, just my luck to be boxed in...." (Genesis the leader of the enemy group jumps down from the stands to confront Ringleader. His Appearance being black medieval and cloth armor with red spiked hair and scars across his face, with black fingerless gloves.) Genesis: *nods at Ring as he approaches him*. "Sup, didn't expect to find you wonder into a place like this." Ringleader: *crosses his arms*. "I'm looking for Sherlock, have you seen him?" Genesis: *shakes his head*. "Can't say I have." Ringleader: *takes a step back*. "Alright, I'll be on my way then." Genesis: *draws one of the swords off his back and points it at Ring*. "I can't let you do that. With how things are now, it's best you die by my blade instead of another's, you could have items." Ringleader: *chuckles, smirking as he lowers his head*. "You really want to play with game with me?" Genesis: "Unfortunately, I have to. You won't join up with me, so you have to die." Ringleader: *lowers his hand just over his revolver at his hip*. "Bring it...." (Giving the signal to attack, all of Genesis's group members jump out and rush towards Ring, weapons drawn ready to kill him quickly. Before they can reach him, Ring scans the area with his eyes and locks on to 6 of the players, drawing his revolver with super speed and unloading into their heads, killing them.) (With still many more players in the group rushing him, Ring tries to reload his revolver but gets a sword stabbed right through his back. Stumbling forward and reloading his gun in deep pain, Ring turns around and shoots the random player in the head with an explosive bullet, splattering blood all over him and the ground.) (2 more players swing their weapons towards Ring but Ring manages to roll under the attack and swing himself around, shooting both players in the head with superb accuracy. After killing both of those players, Ring is shot in the chest by a sniper rifle from the stands, but with a rush of adrenaline he is able to keep attacking.) Ringleader: *counting his shots in the chamber*. "3 left...." Genesis: *draws his other sword, now dual wielding*. "Give it up Ring, you'll only suffer more pain!" (Looking towards Genesis, Ring lifts his gun and aims for his head, but another random dude lands right in front of Ring's shot and blocks the bullet with a shield. Charging towards Ring, the player with a shield throws it towards Ring's chest and hits him dead on, knocking the air out of him.) (Now that the shield is out of the way and Ring still taking shots from the sniper, Ring recovers his breathe and throws his revolver directly at the player in front of him, bouncing off his head and Ring catching it midair, hip firing his gun right into the players mouth for an instant kill.) (Aiming his gun without looking, with his last bullet Ring throws his arm out and kills the sniper with a head shot. Holstering his revolver soon after.) Genesis: "Heh, well done. Kill all my men and now it's just you and I." Ringleader: *head lowered towards the ground, clenching his fist with blood all over him*. "Heheh......funny you say.....yes....it's fùcking funny. The death, the gore, no mercy..." (Lifting his head and looking at Genesis with red evil eyes, Ring raises his left hand in the shape of a claw and rips all the iron out from the dead bodies in the arena, manipulating all the metal in the arena colosseum as well and forming it into giant spears, aimed for Genesis.) Genesis: *holds his swords up*. "This attack won't kill me..." Ringleader: "Then you'll die screaming as my hands tear through your throat..." (Ring shoots off his metal spears towards Genesis, creating a large dust cloud as the attack hits the ground. Just as Genesis said, the attack did not kill him and Ringleader charges into the dust cloud, grabbing a hold of Genesis in his weakened state.) Ringleader: *pulls Genesis to his knees by his throat, suffocating him and digging his fingers into his neck*. "Grrr..." Genesis: *slowly dying, unable to scream*. "...." Sherlock: "Ring!" (As Ring hears Sherlock's voice, he lets go of Genesis's throat and his eyes turn back to his regular color.) Ringleader: *turns and looks at Sherlock*. "Sherlock.....when did you show up?" Sherlock: *sighing in disappointment*. "I thought you could control that side of you without me by your side." Ringleader: *looks at his hands*. "I'm sorry...." Sherlock: "I'm with the others, we have a plan that needs to be executed. I felt the spiritual pressure of your power leading me to you so let's go now!" Genesis: *grabs his sword off the ground as Ring has his back turned*. "Oh no ya don't!" Ringleader: *turns around and holds his arm in front of his face as the sword races towards him*. "!!!" Sherlock: *holds his hand out towards Ringleader*. "Ring!!" (And then Sherlock saw it, Ring being stabbed in the face and dying. But he decided to change it, tear running down his face as he accepts his fate.) (And so, unable to block the speed of the blade with an ability unless wanting to severely injure Ring in the process, Sherlock's only choice is to block the blade with his body.) Sherlock: *holding the blade into his chest, Ring knocked to the ground at the speed of his teleportation*. "Ugh...." Genesis: *smiling*. "Yes Sherlock, you know what I can allow my sword to do, you've studied. No way you'll be able to get the antidote in time and since the restrictions are off, you're dead." Sherlock: *grips the sword and pulls it out of his chest*. "I could have let Ring rip you apart, but that is not the path i wish for my students to follow. We are not animals...." (With the last of his strength, Sherlock pulls Genesis's sword from his hands and slices his head off, throwing the sword to the ground and falling to his knees after.) Ringleader: *runs up to Sherlock and holds him up, stopping him from falling on his back*. "Why would you do that for me?! You're more important than i am!" Sherlock: *grabs Ring's hand*. "No, i am not. You're stronger than I am, I know you are......you will ascend to greater heights that I could only dream of reaching." Ringleader: *trying to not get emotional*. "You could have just used an ability, I would have recovered..." Sherlock: *shakes his head*. "No, you wouldn't have....." (Lifting his hand and touching Ring's heart, Sherlock utters his final words.) Sherlock: "Now your limits are off, what you do next.......is your choice...." Ringleader: *After Sherlock passes, Ring closes his eyes and lays him down on the ground gently*. "Thank you...." (Going to meet up with the others outside of the arena to continue Sherlock's quest, Ring walks out with a depressed look on his face, still covered in blood from the fight.) Vex: *approaches Ring*. "Where is Sherlock?!" Ringleader: *looks up at Vex*. "He's gone...." Vex: *speechless*. "....wha..." Ringleader: *places his hand on Vex's shoulder*. "I'm sorry...." Vex: *hangs his head, saddened at the sudden news*. "He would have wanted us to continue the quest. We will do so." (End of Part 6.)
