Striker jumped up to attack Kilo but was sidestepped by Kilo, who swiftly countered with a powerful punch to Striker's ribs. "Fucker" Striker muttered as he winced in pain but quickly recovered and retaliated with a series of punches but Kilo dodged Striker's attacks, looking for an opening to strike back.
Striker backed off and began to circle Kilo as Kilo glanced at Striker. Striker feinted to the left, then lunged at Kilo with a spinning kick. Kilo anticipated the move and ducked under Striker's leg, grabbing him by the ankle and slamming him to the ground.
As Striker struggled to get up, Kilo pressed his advantage, delivering a flurry of punches to Striker's stomach before releasing an hidden blade from his wrist and stabbing Striker multiple times in the stomach then letting him fall to the ground.
Striker chuckled as he held his hand on the stab wound before gasping, "never thought I'd go out like this..."
Kilo silently walked over to grabbing Strikers leg then throwing him out the window to the now empty festival grounds

Earlier
a gunshot went off scaring all of the people in festival as Kel ran to the stage
"You need to get out of here sir.' Kel directed
"I'm fine where I am." Stolas protested as he entered a tent at the back of the stage
"That bullet was meant for you." Kel explain as he followed Stolas into the tent
"What part of I am fine did you not hear?" Stolas asked as he sat down in a chair
"If you won't leave, at least let me stay here with you." Kel muttered
"very well..." Stolas concluded
——————————————————————————
Present
Striker flew out of the window landing in front of the of stage. As Striker tried to crawl away he looked to the house seeing Kilo crawling out of the window staring at him
"Kilo?" Kel yelled out, "Whats going on?"
Jumping down Kilo landed with thud he slowly walked towards Striker to was now trying to crawl onto the stage
"Oh no... your not getting away..." Kilo muttered as he stood above Striker as he moved his foot resting it on Strikers back
"Whats the meaning of this?" Stolas asked exiting the tent
"This one here... was attempting to end your life..." Kilo explained still holding Striker down with his foot
"Was he now? Well he face punishment. Release him." Stolas commented as he lifting his hand to make a portal, "Toss him in there."
Kilo moved his foot off of Striker and grabbed one of his arms before tossing him into the portal
"Kilo wheres Striker?" Riot asked as he approached the group as Stolas closed to portal
"He has been 'detained'..." Kilo muttered glaring at something in the distance
"Well 'Kilo'. I am grateful for your prevention of the Imps assassination." Stolas announced as he looked at Kilo
"It was a coincidence that he was trying to kill you..." Kilo muttered
"He was also after the Grimoire I'm aware." Stolas said and he got down from the stage
"Why go on the stage if you knew?" Riot asked confused
"I've been searching for him to a while now. This wasn't his first attempt. Stella... my ex hired him to kill me I'm aware... But I can't find who wants the Grimoire..." Stolas explained as he waved his hands around
"Who ever they are... their working with my Uncle..." Riot answered as Loona walked up and stood next to Riot
"Whats his name?" Stolas asked looking to Riot
"Daniel Hawthorne" Riot answered
"Well I'll keep an eye on him see what he knows... thank you all..." Stolas concluded as he bowed slightly then opening a portal then leaving
After Stolas left Kilo and Kel separated from the group heading the direction where Kilo saw the person
"You alright?" Kel asked
"No... I talked with my brother..." Kilo muttered
"What did he want?" Kel asked worryingly
"Nothing... He gave me a warning... that I've been ordered to be decommissioned. They're sending him..." Kilo muttered as they continued to walk
"But since they don't have the book. they can't get you right?" Kel asked
"yes... for the time being." Kilo answered.
"You two alright?" Loona asked as she made herself known to the others
"yeah..." Kilo muttered
"well we're leaving tomorrow so be ready." Loona commented as she turned around and returned to the festival grounds
"I need some time alone. I'll see you back in Pride..." Kilo muttered as he turned and walked away from Kel disappearing in the horizon
------------------------
Back At The Festival
Kel returned to the festival Loona and Riot who were sitting on the edge of stage
"Wheres Kilo?" Riot asked as Kel walked up to him and Loona
"Needed some time alone." Kel answered as he rested his hand on the back of his head
"Well the festival is over now. What do we now." Riot asked as he looked to Loona who started to became tired
"Don't know... I'll leave you two alone..." Kel muttered as he walked away leaving Loona and Riot
