He turn the locket over and over in his hand, Miyukiko had gone home a while ago after making sure Blossom was alright and now it was just Mitch and Blossom.

Blossom notice the locket but said nothing, she didn't want to pry into his life without warrant. She was unwrapping a bento dinner and handed Mitch one.

"Thanks," Mitch said as he pocketed the locket while taking the dinner. "I guess I should be explaining why I'm here and what's been happening since I left Townsville."

"I should too, shouldn't I?" Blossom said after swallowing a bite. "You go first."

Mitch shrugged and took another chunk of his own dinner before speaking, "why mom and dad came back I was happy, they actually cared for me and acted like they loved me but than they try to sacrifice me for their power lust... Or so I thought."

"Mitch?"

He reach into his pocket and pulled out the locket, he held it by the chain while he continue his story. "A man, Immortal Jack, saved me and took me under his wing at this organization called the Crisis Organization, when I could handle myself he went on his own path while I went on mine, since than I've been working on keeping the normal people of this world some what safe from many threats."

"Funny," Blossom said. "I always picture you being a villain more than a hero."

"I ain't hero," Mitch said as he pocketed the locket. "I'm barely human by some standards, but do I really want to be their standards of human?"

"Ugh, too deep for me," Blossom said as she shook her head, she smiled as Mitch chuckled. It was nice to be in a semi-light mood, it is a nice feeling to not swim in depression and hopelessness.

"I came here to get Sarah Bellum," Mitch said before finishing off his bento. "I was attacked by every assault vehicle there and I barely survived, I chased her to Vietnam than to here where I found her sort of dead and undead."

Blossom cocked her head and raised a brow, "sort of 'dead and undead'?"

"Yep, she had been killed and than brought back as a ghoul to personally greet me. And I have a damn good idea of how that was."

"Really?"

"It was the same person that Miyukiko described that released the demon, Morebucks."

Blossom almost chocked when she heard the name, she manage to swallow her food and lean in close. "Mr. Morebucks? Princess' father!"

"One and the same, he is the leader of a once powerful crime family; the Black Mafia."

The black Mafia! The ones that killed so many people during the Majin Taisen, Blossom thought as she sat back down on the floor.

"Shocking, isn't it?" Mitch said. "It shocked me too when I found out, I was even the one that unmask him by accident when we crossed paths in London when he was trying to taunt me; since then we've been more than mortal enemies, more like star crossed blood thirsty enemies."

"Is there anything else I need to be surprised by?"

"Not that could I think of, just those things."

Blossom was silent, she was allowing the information sink into her psyche while she try to figure out what to do now. "Do you want to watch a little tv?"

"Sure?" Mitch said as he lean over and turn on the small tv, they sat there saying nothing and watching whatever was on. They both fell asleep in each other arms.

"Quite a find," Akumaru said as he held up the sword. "Indeed a very rare find."

"If you don't mind me asking, but what does the sword do that is so important?" Usagiko asked.

Akumaru swiped the air a few times before answering, "several things, for one it's a symbol; but it's also a key."

"Key?"

Akumaru laid the horrid sword onto a table and faced his younger sister. "It's a special key, one of a kind item to a one of a kind door."

Usagiko tilted her head back and stared at her brother, she was understanding what he was saying but didn't like where it was going.

"Behind that door lays two greater items of chaotic nature, but it is the evil one I'm interested in." Akumaru picked up the sword again and looked it over, "I can finally firmly place myself as the true head of the hakke."

"I hate to interrupted but I thought you already were the head of the hakke?"

Akumaru place the sword back down and sighed. "Where do I begin? Oh, yes; you see my dear sister, our parents were the leaders of two crime organizations that combined into this organization now, I was there first born child and almost destined to become the leader." He turn to face Usagiko and continued, "but when I was your age something went wrong, my - our - brother was born; this is why I treated you like crap at the castle, I didn't have much of a high opinion of siblings. As I was saying, he was born with something more special and was given the symbol of the hakke; a hand crafted reiken. I was their first born and they treat him like god, do you know how I felt when he unwrap that present and got what I wanted! I mean I wanted that Omnimon too, not that Sylphimon toy."

From one nut into a whole bag full of them, Usagiko thought as Akumaru went on about his life. I'm starting to rethink this whole traitor to the Black Mafia thing.

"I mean he has a cannon AND a sword, you can't get any cooler than that, except for dukemon; which he got too!"

I hope I don't inherit the crazy gene.
