Event Story – Heroes with Dirty Faces, ch.12

[kozvme]

 

Jet: I thought they accomplished their goal with Jet's comeback and private matches.
But then they said not to interfere... and that the best was yet to come...
I gotta help them, and since they still want to earn... they wanna use my matches to gamble.
... They even threatened me sayin' the Italian mafia is backing them up.

Jay: The Italian mafia...

Jet: I don't care about that, I ain't afraid of some threats, but...

Jay: In other words... you're stuck because of the position Gray's in.

Jet: ......
... I really dunno what to do.
Should I annihilate these mafia guys one by one? But if someone sees me...

Jay: N- Now, now, don't say stuff you will regret.

Jet: Then what should I do?

Jay: Haah... You struck me as a capable guy, someone who'd whip Gray into fighting trim.
But you're unexpectedly bad at planning ahead... or rather, you're quite troublesome yourself, huh?

Jet: Kh, you... tryna pick a fight?

Jay: Not at all. It's obvious if you think about it.
As Gray's other personality, you've just manifested.

Jet: ......

Jay: Now then...

Jet: Oi, where are you going? I'm not finished with you!

Jay: No, that was enough.

Jet: ... Haah?

Jay: The Italian mafia is involved, right? That's all I need...
I'm about to pay these guys a visit for a chitchat.

Jet: Eh...?
Don't tell me you're planning to kill them all? You? A Super Hero...?

Jay: ...... Well, let's leave it like that.

Jet: !?

Jay: You're right. I am a Super Hero.
Don't worry. Just be a good boy and wait.



Mafia associate A: Wait! I told ya to wait, didn't I...!

Jay: Sorry, but I can't do that. I don't have much time.

Mafia associate B: Unbelievable, a hero from HELIOS!? You're Jay Kidman, right?

Mafia associate C: I don't care if you're a Super Hero or whatever, putting on airs won't work with us!
W- We ain't scared of... your s- superhuman strenght or the laser beam, you h- hear!?

Mafia associate A: That's right! You barge in uninvited... Hang on a sec- How come ya know about our hideout!?

Jay: I think the boss' office was this way?

Mafia associate B: Aaaah, stop! You're gonna get yourself killed if you go without permission!?



Mafia associate A: Wait! Didn't I tell ya to stop!?

Jay: Coming in.

Mafia associate B: S- Stoop...!

Mafia boss: What's the ruckus? 

Mafia associate C: Heek...

Mafia associate A: B- Boss! Apologies! This guy suddenly showed up and barged in...

Mafia boss: Suddenly, huh?
No one managed to stop him before he got here? None of you grown men...

Mafia associate B: !! That is...

Jay: Sorry, can we discuss this later?

Mafia associate A: Y- You little... don't talk to the boss like that...!

Jay: Did I not make myself clear when I said I had no time?  I need to speak with the boss immediately.

Mafia boss: Jay Kidman...

Jay: ......
