Enforcers

"Reaper. Your end has come!" Dawson announced charging forward.

The Red Demon and Skeleton clashed in ma.s.sive boom as the room shook. 

Dawson instantly broke through the man slamming him through the wall with a single push. His tendrils wrapped around the skeleton as he slammed it down again and again.

Dawson swung the man smashing him straight through a wall.

Reaper rolled into the room and began to laugh. All around them were piles and piles of skeletons. "I robbed a few graves a few years back. I keep them just in case I need to fix myself up. Now. Now I"ll use them to power up!" He announced as almost all the bones were pulled over to him and he grew even larger. "I told you! I am G.o.d-"

Dawson reached up ripping the ma.s.sive arm of the skeleton off as he began to smash the bone arm into the man over and over again literally beating him with his own arm.

"You b.a.s.t.a.r.d!" Reaper growled out, only to have his lower jaw ripped off. Dawson continued to tear into him as he let out a loud yell.

"What"s wrong?" Dawson asked wrapping his hand around the skeletons head as he twisted his hand forward throwing him through another wall. "Are you not having fun? Is being beaten to an inch of your life not fun for you? Come on! I thought this is what made you laugh!" He smashed him through another wall as his fist grew larger and larger as he began to punch again and again. "Better yet! Let me hear you scream!"

"I"ll kill you-"

Dawson forced the skeleton into the floor pushing him deeper and deeper into the stone. Every hit snapped off pieces of bones as more tendrils came out of him slicing through the room.

They whipped around cutting the bones into even smaller pieces breaking them down as much as he possibly could. 

"I"m not letting you ever come back!" Dawson roared piling on a wave of tendrils onto the Skeleton. He ripped the Skeleton apart with pure rage.

"Get- Off me!" Reaper growled out as he began to slowly break apart. "No! No! Stop-"

"Die you b.a.s.t.a.r.d!"

"Boom!"

Dawson"s raised his foot up smashing it down onto the skeletons head crushing it. He brought it down again and again and again. 

Finally. After nearly ten minutes of stomping at the ground, he stopped leaving only a white powder behind. 

"Goodbye Reaper. When you get to h.e.l.l apologize on my behalf." Dawson spat out. His tendrils pulled back into his body as he let out a loud sigh. "Thank G.o.d. I thought that guy would never die-"

"Dawson..." A weak voice croaked out.

Dawson"s eyes widened as he turned back running over to Ren"s body. By now both of their aura was gone. She looked to be in even worse shape. 

She was at her limit...

Both of them knew that.

"...Dawson..." She said again.

"I"m here..."

"Can you stay with me."

"Of course I can..." Dawson said slowly feeling his throat tighten as he struggled to swallow. "I"ll stay here until Sif or Nick arrive... I"m sure they"ll have a way to save you... So just hold on a little longer."

"We both know that won"t be happening-"

"You don"t know that!" Dawson stopped when he felt the hand on his cheek. Ren smiled up towards him despite not opening her eyes. 

"I"m sorry." She said slowly. She coughed out in pain 

"Why are you apologizing?"

Ren"s smile faded as she flinched slightly. "I"m... I"m not a good person." She said slowly. "Dawson... I"m a traitor... I"m part of the Organization."

"What..." Dawson"s eyes were wide as he stared down at the girl in a mix of horror and shock.

"This world... I always thought it was so bland and dark. I was an Organization member. Number four..." She gasped out. "My partner... He goes by Mr. Green. And our leader is names, Mr. Snow. I was placed in the Enforcers as a double agent. That was why most information on them was so rare. It was my job to get rid of it. Mr. Green... His real name-"

"Stop," Dawson said. "Don"t tell me..." He stated slowly. "I don"t want to spoil my memory of you... Let"s not talk about it." He slowly ran his hand through her hair. "This could be my only chance to find out about them... But... I don"t care. I"ll let this secret die. Ren is an Enforcer..."

"Dawson. We aren"t behind this." She gasped out slowly. "We aren"t behind the destruction behind this city. It is true. We were suppose to be here. My partner was. We came to judge the n.o.ble here. But we didn"t destroy this city. We do not have the machines that do it. I don"t know who it is but they are dangerous-"

"I told you stop talking about it..."

"I"m sorry..."

"It"s fine."

"Dawson?"

"Yeah?"

"Can you tell me about your friends? You mentioned Jackson? And your Captain. And those Recruits of yours. Can you tell me about them?"

"Yeah..." Dawson said slowly taking a small gulp. "Jackson Storm. He"s my best friend. In fact, he was one of my only friends until Katrina took over..." 

"Really?"

"Yeah." Dawson gave a nod but remembered Ren couldn"t see it. "They"re special to me... I"m actually waiting for Jackson to propose to her, but he"s too stupid to do it."

"I can"t imagine a Vice-Captain being an idiot?"

"Well, he is. But isn"t... He"s actually insanely smart. But he has a hard time understanding people... We"ve gotten into several fights because of it." Ren getting answer remaining silent. Dawson continued to run his hand through her hair. "He"s strong. Even stronger than me. But he"s a n.o.ble after all so that"s no surprise. And Katrina. She"s even stronger than me and him combined. Every now and then a normal non-n.o.ble is born who is insanely strong. That"s her. Someone strong. Very strong. She"s amazing. I know the other Enforcers are afraid of her because she has caused some problems but most of that is due to bad luck." Ren still didn"t answer. "Umm... What else? Uhh. Oh yeah, the Recruits. Well. There"s Cloud. He"s blind but very skilled. I think he"ll make a fine Enforcer. Then there"s North. They"re obviously a girl pretending to be a boy. I don"t know why? She"s strong though. Obviously, there is a Kitsune. I worry about him the most. Every time I look at him all I see is sorrow and pain. Then there"s Ken. She has way too much potential. She"s insanely strong. I think she might even pa.s.s Katrina. A few years and she"ll pa.s.s me for sure. And Hero. Well, he weird. I don"t get how he works, but he"s cool." Ren was still silent. "Umm. What else? Uhh?" Dawson tried to rack his brain. "They"re all strong. I"m happy to have them on my team. I"m happy to see them grow. And. I"m happy I got to know you. I... I"m not sure. But I think this feeling is love? Oh..m And uhh. There"s the first time I became an Enforcer-"

"Dawson."

Dawson stopped suddenly as he turned his head slowly. Sif stood in the smashed out wall staring at him.

"Dawson? You"re crying-" She stopped seeing what he was holding. "Oh... No..."

Nick suddenly walked past her entering the room. He walked towards the man crouching down. Slowly he placed a hand on the girl"s neck. He slowly pulled away. The look on his face said it all.

He slowly walked back over to Sif pulling the girl with him. "Is... Is she?"

Nick pulled the young Captain out of the room pulling her away. "Come on lady Sif. We said we would tell the others if we found Dawson. They are probably bored waiting for us... Dawson we"ll be at the train station..." He said slowly.

They left leaving Dawson alone. "So. Where was I?" Dawson asked slowly? "The first time I became an Enforcer... My first day I guess. It was pretty crazy. After all my partner was Jackson Storm himself... So things were bound to get weird... Umm... So..."

Meanwhile...

It had been sometime after the battle with the two Organization members. By now Heather and Sera had woken up. 

All of them had bee chatting at the train station while they waited on the rest of the group to show up. Heather was waiting on her dad to come get her.

"I"m in big trouble..." The girl muttered.

Hero turned just in time to see Nick and Sif in the distance. 

"Hey, guys!" A heavily beat up Hero yelled waving his hand. His smile faded when he saw the look on Nick and Sif"s face. "Guys..." Hero questioned as he raised an eyebrow.

Nick walked Sif past the boy. Sif didn"t look very good. She looked like she had been crying reminding Hero of the fact that she was only seventeen, being one of the youngest Enforcer Captains. 

"What happened?" Ken asked in a worried tone.

"Is Dawson and Ren alright?" Sera asked.

"Those were the two other Enforcers?" Heather asked.

"We lost." Was all Nick Said. "We lost."
