[3rd person POV]

Accelerator and Mynnah looked around, observing the people surrounding them. Nobody dared to make a move, until Accelerator did, stepping towards the enemies.

"What are you doing?!" Mynnah whisper-yelled, worriedly looking at the white haired esper.

"Oi, are you guys so cowardly that you ambush two unarmed highschoolers? What a complete disgrace to villainy." Accelerator said, smirking as he took another step forward and pointed to Mynnah behind his back. "Even that lying brat over there wouldn't do this, you guys are pathetic."

"S-Stay back or we'll shoot!" One of them said.

"Haa? But you'll shoot either way, won't you, coward?" Accelerator said, a menacing look befalling his features. "How worthless. Just a shitty bunch of good-for-nothings."

"Shut up!" One of the people surrounding them shot Accelerator, only to have the bullet stop before it hit him and return to the gun, making it explode, and making the other people step back in fear.

"Since you worthless bunch of shitty excuses for villains obviously don't know anything, I'll give you all a lesson." Accelerator said, his smirk breaking into a wide, maniacal grin. "I'll show you...what a real villain looks like!"

Accelerator propelled himself towards one of them, grabbing the person by the head and slamming it into the hard concrete, creating a bloody mess, and touched a nearby empty crate, tearing it into pieces and sending them flying everywhere, killing several people, piercing the ground.  One was about to hit Mynnah, but she acted quickly and deployed a translucent shield that looked like a star.

"Hey, watch it!" Mynnah complained, balling her hands into fists.

"Oh. I forgot that you were even there." Accelerator said bluntly, punching another person, effectively cracking their ribs without breaking a sweat. "Get out of my way before I kill you."

"You ignorant little--" Mynnah growled, soon sighing. "I wanted to do this without any casualties, so there'd be nothing to clean up, but I guess it can't be helped." Mynnah cracked her knuckles, a eerie, sadistic grin appearing on her face as she tore her attention away from Accelerator, facing the enemies that were screaming and running for their lives.

"Now, why don't we try to see if I can make you asshats beg for mercy?" Mynnah said as a flurry of crystals formed around her arm and then shot into the air. They cut a person's head off on their way and then they surrounded three people in a tornado of crystals, slowly cutting them up, while Accelerator, on the other hand, was literally sending people flying and crushing them effortlessly, and soon, only one enemy was left.

Mynnah's crystals dashed towards the last one, aiming for the neck, and Accelerator made his advance too, placing his hand on the man's chest and sending the body flying, while the head dropped to the ground.

"Tch. Now that this is all done, I'll ask you some questions, you lying brat." Accelerator said, turning to Mynnah and walking over to her. "Who the hell are you really and why are they targeting us?"

"You're joking, right?" She asked backing to a metal crate and she was pinned to it. She winced as Accelerator kept a firm grip on both of her wrists with his ability.

"Do I look like someone who'd joke around? I'm not like those idiots who actually believe your lies." Accelerator said, coming closer. "I'll ask again, who are you and why are they targeting us?"

"I-I'm Mynnah Reikozawa. Nothing else. I don't know why they're targeting us." Mynnah lied, trying to teleport to no avail, since Accelerator could control vectors, meaning that he cancelled out her crystals, and he grabbed her neck, squeezing it.

"You're lying." Accelerator said, slamming his hand next to Mynnah's hand, making her wince and creating a dent in the crate. "Tell me the truth or I'll kill you."

"I can't hurt you." Mynnah said then averted her gaze, making Accelerator tighten his grip, making her flinch and suffocate. Her debt to Last Order was great, so she couldn't break her promise to protect Accelerator. Even though he was the one hurting her, she couldn't bring herself to break her word to Last Order and decided to do nothing.

"If you want the both of us to keep our promises to the brat, answer me." Accelerator lifted her chin and looked directly into her eyes.

"Like hell I would." Mynnah spat, even though her voice was strained.

"Are you seriously going to die for your damn pride? Answer me. Now." Accelerator growled, and when Mynnah stayed silent, he tightened his grip even more.

"Damn...you..." Mynnah choked out, to no avail. After she could barely breathe and she was running out of breath, so she finally gave in, and Accelerator slightly loosened his grip. She took deep breaths, trying to regulate her breathing. "I'm Mynnah Shinigatsu, the user of a skill named Crystallize. A mercenary. And I didn't lie about not knowing why they're after us."

"Now, tell me." Accelerator said, furrowing his eyebrows and glaring at Mynnah. "Why the hell did you attack me in that alley, Annihilator?"

Mynnah chuckled darkly.
"Glad you figured that out, but sorry, pal," She looked at him dead in the eye, the foggy darkness in them was enough to slightly shake Accelerator. "I'm not your pawn. I'm not anyone's pawn anymore. I'm playing king now."

"What the hell are you talking about?" Accelerator said, a drop of cold sweat rolling down his cheek. He didn't know why, but something about the malice in her tone made him nervous.

"It means you either kill me and checkmate me, or let me go and make it a tie, but..." She grinned maniacally. "...either way, the king's secrets will be kept, and you'll still be just another piece on the board, nothing more nothing less."

"Stop blabbering." Accelerator scowled, tightening his grip once more.

"I became king..." Mynnah continued. "...to protect an important memory. My secrets follow me to my grave."

An important memory...

Accelerator thought about it, and all of a sudden, a sharp pain went through Accelerator's head. He clutched his head with his free hand as the sound of childish laughter rang through his ears.

"Hurry up, slowpoke!"
"Nacchan, wait for me!"

His eyes widened. Who did that voice belong to...?

He fell into a trance for a few seconds until...

"Yo, asshat, mind letting go of our boss before we kill you?" A loud voice said, gaining the attention of Mynnah and Accelerator.

"You guys sure are late." Mynnah said boredly, turning her head to see a woman with tied auburn hair, bright green eyes, and a katana, Suzuka Kinshiro, the assistant leader of the nightingale troop, and a man with blue-dyed hair and yellow eyes, Kazuo Hiwatari, the virtuoso of their group. Soon, all seven members of the nightingale troop were there.

Accelerator reluctantly dropped Mynnah and she fell to the ground, trying to grasp her breath.

"Yo, boss, long time no see!" Kazuo yelled happily.

"You shouldn't let your guard down, Mistress." Suzuka sighed and lifted up a man by the hair. He was unconscious, but not quite dead. "And we saw this guy snooping around too. What kind of trouble have you gotten in this time?"

"Who—the hell's—that?" Mynnah said in between breaths.

"Nyle, a member of the Infiltrators." Suzuka said, pointing at the man. "He's one of the the virtuosos of the group."

"A virtuoso of the Infiltrators? What the hell's a western assassination group doing here?" Mynnah said with a stern look.

"I heard from my brother that they were hired to kill the number one level five." Suzuka said.

"Tch. Of course." Accelerator said, annoyed, as he scratched the back of his head. "Another guy hiring random shits to try and kill me. What's new?"

"Him? This wimpy looking guy? He's the number one?" Kazuo said, mockingly pointing at Accelerator, and even tried to poke Accelerator, but Accelerator reflected it, making him fly and crash into a crate.

"So, what are we going to do with this guy, Mistress?" Suzuka said.

"Keep him. Not like he can do anything anymore." Mynnah said, regaining her composure and standing up, dusting off her leggings. She then redirected her attention to a small boy who wore a blue bunny suit while holding a white and pink stuffed rabbit in his hand and a tall, muscular brunette man with glasses. "Niyuji, Satou, cage him up until he wakes up, I'll decide what to do with him later on."

"Rwoger that!" The small boy, Niyuji Shikimori, said cutely, his bunny held up by his left arm while his right arm saluted before he patted a crate and temporarily disappeared, only to reappear beside Suzuka, hold Neil's wrist and disappear again, along with Neil. Satou simply nodded, rolling up the left sleeve of his black coat, as sand rapidly flowed out of his left hand, creating a sandstorm around him and suddenly disappearing into thin air, with only the sand left behind.

"I can trust Riccochet and Sandstorm on guarding the infiltator but..." Mynnah paused and pointed her index finger at Accelerator. "...you, I can't trust at all." She glared at Accelerator. "It would be for the best if you just leave."

"Let me remind you that just a few minutes ago, I had you pinned to a crate. If I have to find that brat, I'll do it myself." Accelerator growled. "I don't need help from the likes of you."

Accelerator tried to attack her by throwing a piece of a crate at her, and Mynnah quickly sent her crystals forward. As soon as their attacks collided, they cancelled out each other, and the crate piece dropped to the side. Suzuka and Kazuo rushed to her side. Suzuka pointed her sword towards Accelerator, and Kazuo did so with a gun.

"Bastard, get away from her." Suzuka scowled, venom lacing every word. "My lady, are you all right?"

"Suzuka, Kazuo, stand aside." Mynnah commanded and they obeyed. "If you want to save Last Order yourself so badly..." Mynnah looked over to Accelerator. "You might as well consider dying. No matter how strong you are, you can't fight a reverser."

"What the hell is that?" Accelerator asked, clicking his tongue.

"A person from the magic side that's able to absorb, amplify, and return most types of power, mainly physical attacks, earthly magic and esper abilities." Mynnah said. "There are only seven of them in the entire world as of now, and most of them were locked up, since the strongest reverser can cut a limb off if he's scratched, but we were lucky enough to make one our enemy. Do you understand how dangerous this is now?"

"I don't care. I'll save that brat no matter what it takes."

"Guess this'll mark both of our graves."
