Trix, right after throwing the bomb, backed up and jumped out of the room to avoid getting injured. There were two guards waiting for her, who also managed to escape, but she quickly took them down and turned around to see the state of the room.

Moments after the explosion, she heard the heavy sound of things collapsing. The ceiling of the room fell to the ground, making a noise like a bomb.

Along with the ceiling, people whom Trix did not expect fell down. In addition to a grown man who looked like he wasn't just a random guy, but someone important, a few other well-built and menacing-looking guys, Fi also fell down holding Makio in his arms. He was the only one to fall to his feet and keep his balance on the uneven ground.

Trix - Sorry! Fili! Are you OK? I had no idea you were upstairs!

Fi - No, I'm fine. And thanks, you helped me!

Makio - Trix? Are you here too?

The boy released Makio from his hands after leaving the dusty and broken room. The woman stood on shaky legs, still feeling the sudden fall.

Trix - Good to see you're okay. Your grandfather looked like the living dead when he talked about your kidnapping.

Maki - Is he okay? I passed out in the store, so I don't know if he made it out unhurt.

Trix - He didn't look too bad, he's probably fine.

Makio - Luckily

She sighed in relief, clutching her heart.

??? - Fuck! What happened!?

They heard a voice coming from a room whose ceiling had collapsed.

The boss came limping out, followed by three bodyguards who looked as if they were unharmed.

Gorilla - Boss! Your son is here!

The fourth stayed in the room and dug up under a pile of dust and rubble, the son of his employer. He was more or less whole. The ceiling collapsed mainly in the middle, so Asil avoided critical damage by hiding against the wall. However, he lost consciousness, and blood flowed from his ears, probably after hearing a loud explosion. The other two guards were in a similar state.

Boss - Khh!

He was so angry that he couldn't even utter words.

Boss - What are you waiting for!? Kill them!

He shouted to his bodyguards, who obediently obeyed. They still had their pistols in their hands, aiming them at the intruders.

Trix - Get down!

She grabbed Makio and sent her to the ground, dodging two shots.

And only two because the third was blocked by Fi. Before the gorilla could fire, Fi was beside him, and with a black hand slammed into his shoulder, breaking it. The man was strong, as befits the bodyguard of the biggest mafia in the city, so he did not show pain, although the suffering was certainly powerful.

The boy aimed his fist at the gorilla again, this time at the head. But the gorilla managed to dodge the blow. He didn't have the gun anymore because he dropped it from his broken hand. His other hand, on the other hand, was functional, and he tried to hit Fi with it. However, he miscalculated a bit in his strength and speed, because in those two respects he was far behind the boy who easily dodged the blow and landed his, which knocked him to the ground. And all this in just a few seconds.

After that, he defeated the rest of the bodyguards in a similar way, so the boss was left alone without any protection.

He chickened out. He backed up on slightly trembling legs, afraid to take any action.

It was hard for him to believe that a bunch of kids had been able to break into his base, defeat most of the guards, and get to him. And now that he had seen their power with his own eyes, it only made it more incredible.

Fi - This is for kidnapping Kabemakio.

He stepped forward, shifting his weight to his left leg, and hit the boss in the face with a straight punch. The boss flew backwards and ended up unconscious on the ground.

Trix - Well, it's over.

Fi - It was too easy.

Trix - Don't overdo it, if it was harder, something could have happened to Makio, right?

Makio - I don't know how you can say that it was too simple, ah .... you are amazing.

Her tail was still curled in fear, her fur was bristling, and her breathing was labored.

Fi - Hihi! Right!

He smiled happily.

Trix - And now we have to get out of here. Feli said there was a fire downstairs. By the way, haven't you met her, Fi? She went looking for you.

Fi - No.

Trix - Then go upstairs and find her.

Fi - ........ Upstairs again......

He was reluctant to climb the stairs a second time. His face screamed how much he didn't want to do this.

Fi - Only and exclusively because it is Felyy.

He convinced himself of the task, for his sister's sake, and ran up the stairwell.

Trix - Can you get up?

Makio - Yes.

Trix reached out to her and helped her up. Her ears were drooped and tucked down, but she no longer looked as scared as she had a few moments ago.

??? - What happened here?

They heard an unfamiliar voice and immediately turned to him. There stood a man with red scales and a lizard tail. He was wearing a police uniform. It was the same guy who had chased after Fi and Bunny the day before.

Trix - City Watch? ...All in all, we made a lot of noise.

She thought for a moment. It's impossible for someone from the outside not to notice that something is wrong. While the guns weren't all that loud, the bomb she used definitely spread farther than just inside the building. But for the guards to react so quickly?

Trix - As you can see, evil has been defeated and good has triumphed.

The girl pointed to the mobster and his bodyguards lying on the floor.

Guardian (Lizard) - ? Have any of you met Coin?

Trix - ? Yes...? I met him...wait... He said something about his brother being a guard...

Lizard - Yes, he told me what happened, but..... could only three races really do such damage?

He was talking not only about what he had just seen before his eyes, but also what he saw when he entered here. It was something that would be hard to do even with a whole squad of guards.

Trix - Haha! I'll take that as a compliment!

He was more likely to get an answer like "we have black belts in karate" or some other explanation for this improbable event, but he didn't press for an answer.

Lizard - And I heard that your friend was kidnapped...

Trix - Yes, there she is.

She pointed to a woman who was standing close to her.

Trix - And I have one request, sir.

She walked slowly towards the man.

Trix - I would be grateful if the guard would do everything in his power to keep the information about me and my friends secret.

Lizard - I don't remember having a reason to cover you.

Trix - How come!?

With her hand on her heart, she pretended to be greatly surprised, although she did it in such a way that her acting was immediately visible.

Trix - The news that you're revealing work information to your little brother won't help you, and guards should keep things like that to themselves, right?

Trix was standing right in front of him and only approached as if she wanted to show who's boss. Their heads were so close that someone who didn't know them might have been confused as to what they were talking about. But the man took a step back and sighed.

Lizard - I have no reason to cover for you, but I also have no reason to accuse you, after all, you just took down the most problematic organization in the whole city. I'll think of something to omit you and your friends from my report.

Trix - Thanx! You'll get a discount at the "Kiss Taste" Club if you come!

She gave him this proposal jokingly. It was obvious from the first glance that he wasn't the type to go to places like this.

Trix - I'm going and leave the rest to you, Mr. Honorable Guard!

She took Makio's hand and headed for the exit.

Makio - Go-goodbye.

She wasn't sure whether to say goodbye. During the descent, she couldn't help but marvel at how many guards her friends had managed to defeat.

Trix - Let's go straight to the old man, he must be dying of worry.

Makio - And Fi and Feli?

Trix - They'll be fine, don't worry about them.

***********************************

Feli - Filyy!? Filyy, where are you!?

She ran through the corridors looking for her brother.

Feli - Eh, I won't find him in that way... maybe I'll ask someone?

She thought for a moment and turned to the wall where the bodyguards lay.

Feli - Hey you.

She pointed to the only one who was conscious.

Feli - Where is Filyy?

Guard - Who?

Feli - Filyy!

Guard - Is that the boy with the black hair and the horn?

Feli - Yes, that's him! Where he is?

Guard - Why should I help you?

Feli - Em.... because if not.... I'll kick you?

Guard - I won't even tell you if you do.

Feli - Then what should I do to make you say?

Guard - Shoot yourself-

He paused and began to think about something.

The guard - this, I don't want to repeat it, he ran downstairs, to the second floor.

Feli - Thanks! And what floor is it?

Guard - Fourteenth.

Feli- Uh!? I was running so high!? All right, let's go!

She headed for the stairwell.

Guard - What the fuck is wrong with them?

He thought as he lay on the floor.
