Zero wasn't worried about the bodies he was leaving behind as he was confident that the MIB agents would clean up well.
For the first guy, he had simply flung out his wire like a whip, and it sliced across and through the guy's neck like butter. Ordinarily, he would have gurgled and the blood would have splurted out like a geyser but his wire was special.
Zero had coated the tip of the wire with a special poison that immediately congealed the blood. However, since the wire was so small and fine, he could not put a lot of it and thus, some blood still seeped through after death.
One down. Two to go.
Not enough.
Zero sighed.
Maybe he should use this opportunity to test the agents.
He wasn't going to kill them, of course, but see whether they could detect or avoid his first strike.
A small smile formed on Zero's lips as he thought of the things he could do.
When he reached the next guy, Zero stopped beside him and tilted his head as he stared at the guy. The goon stared back, his face showing displeasure.
"What are you looking at?" the goon barked.
"Isaac?" Zero said, "It's you, isn't it?"
"Go away," the goon replied, "You have the wrong guy."
"It IS you!" Zero said, putting his hands on the goon's face and turned his head left and right.
The goon was flabbergasted.
He knew very well who this silver-haired boy was. He had seen him bring the targets over, but they managed to separate him from them. He was just standing here, awaiting orders once the kids got taken.
So seeing this guy in front of him had made him wary but even then, the guy's movement had been too fast for him to stop him. He felt that seemingly small hand on his face and he was disgusted.
The guy had his thumb and middle finger right at the joints that connected his jawbone to the skull, as he turned his head left and right.
Before he could smack the guy's hand away, however, there was a slight cracking sound and intense pain hit him.
The goon's eyes went wide open.
That fragile, feminine-looking guy actually dislocated his jaw!
The goon shouted in pain, and Zero looked at him in concern, "What is it? What is it? Are you having an attack again?!"
Drool started coming out of the goon's face, as he couldn't close his mouth. Zero put his hand around the goon's shoulder with one hand and casually stabbed him in the back with his poisoned knife.
His movement was covered by the goon's jacket, so no one saw the movement. The knife didn't have a handle and it slid completely into the goon's body.
Zero helpfully led him to a chair and put him down, "Stay here. I'll get someone to help."
The goon couldn't say a word by now, his senses dimming as he found difficulty in breathing. He closed his eyes, never to open them again while Zero patted his shoulder,
"That's it, rest," Zero said loudly, "Someone will come and help you."
Someone did. Two MIB agents appeared and came to carry the guy out by flinging his arms across their shoulders.
Their faces didn't show a single emotion as they did so, despite the fact that they now had two shallow stab wounds at their waist.
Courtesy of Zero as he passed between them when they headed over to Dead Goon #2.
They lamented in their hearts over their misfortune. They didn't do anything and followed protocol so why did they still get injured in the 'cross-fire'?
"Silver Volcano erupted," the agent reported.
Upon hearing this, Lucka sighed and kneaded the space between his eyebrows.
"Zero, leave the MIB agents alone please," Lucka pleaded.
Zero didn't answer and all Lucka got was a grunt.
"Yume, how's it going at your end?" Lucka asked.
"Not a problem. We caught them," Yume reported, referring to the goons that had been tailing them by car earlier, "Don't worry. I heard. Silver Volcano erupted. I'll leave them untouched for Zero."
They all sighed.

While Zero played hide-and-seek with the goons (though the goons didn't know it, nor the consequences of being found), Kay was vigilant as she walked with the kids in the departure hall lounge.
"Let's go straight to the waiting area, shall we?" Kay asked casually.
Just then, Akira slid up beside them and walked on, pretending that he didn't know them.
"Isn't that …" Joseph began, when Kay took his hand.
Surprised, the rest of the words died in his throat, his eyes wide.
"Do you like Famos Amos?" Kay asked, referring to a brand that sells chocolate chip cookies.
Lianne watched as her older brother nodded stupidly at Kay. Lianne had noticed Akira as well, but she wisely kept silent since he didn't acknowledge them.
He was probably going incognito, and her dense brother almost gave it away.
Her eyes swept around the airport lounge, her grip on Ren getting tighter. Although she couldn't see anything out of the ordinary, she knew that something was up.
She wasn't too worried since Mama's Elite Team was here, but the situation still made her slightly nervous. The unknown always did.
Kay pulled Joseph along, and also placed her hand behind Lianne's back, saying, "Come on, choose which cookies you want. My treat."
"Double chocolate chip," Lianne answered swiftly while Joseph wanted the Chocolate Chip Pecan.
As they were bending over the display counter, Kay said to Joseph under her breath, "Pretend you don't know Akira. He's there to observe silently."
Joseph nodded, understanding now why Kay had taken his hand earlier.
Didn't stop the slight reddish tinge at the tip of his ears when he thought about it. He was glad that he wasn't like Lianne, who's cheeks would flush pink each time she blushes.
