Guard: Halt!"

Jay: "Does it look like we're here peacefully?"

Jay punches the only guard outside, knocking him out.

Jake: "Hey.... you showed mercy."

Jay: "Do you want me to punch you too?"

Jake: "Do you want your hand on fire?"

They stare at each other for a split second.

Jay: "Fair enough."

Jade: "Just what have you two done?"

Jay: "Pretty much the same stuff we're doing now."

Narrator: "The 4 start to storm the palace... with Jay handling most of the somewhat unnecessary bloodshed."

Jade: "This is easier than I thought it'd be!"

Jake: "(pauses) Jay has... plenty of experience in this situation. (in head) Something isn't gonna go our way at some point."

Narrator: "Meanwhile, the heir to the throne of Greed, Prince Joshua, walks into the throne room, where his mother is sitting on her throne."

Joshua: "What is going on mother?"

Salis: "Two sins are here."

Joshua: "Then why am I seeing corpses everywhere?!"

Salis: "Don't you remember? All next generation sins must be captured and eliminated."

Joshua: "Why?"

Salis: "They will become a threat to our plans."

Joshua: "What kind of plan?!"

Salis: "Guards! Take this child to the dungeon."

Joshua: "Let me go!"

Back to the heroes.

Jay: "Do either of you two know where is the throne room in this place?"

Ruby: "If my memory tells me right it should be right over...."

They see the guardian of Greed standing guard.

Ruby: "..... there."

Greed: "(blankly) Must capture for Lucifer

Jade: "Wasn't expecting this to be easy."

Jay: "Is she a guardian of sin?"

Jade: "Not just any guardian of sin....."

The guardian prepares for battle.

Jade: "... she's our mom."

Jay: "Think this won't be easy for you two?"

Jade: "Of course it won't be easy, but...."

Jade draws her broadsword."

Jade: "... we will still do it."

Jake look at the guardian's eyes, and notices her soulless eyes.

Jake: "This is definitely a case of brainwashing."

Jay: "Explanation?"

Jake: "Her eyes seem to lack any substance."

Jay: "Know how to fix it?"

Jake: "Beat the crap out of her until she snaps out of it."

Jay: "I like that plan."

They notice that Greed had disappeared.

Jay: "Where did she-"

They turn around, only to find that Greed had appeared behind them, landing a punch right into Jay's face and disappearing.

Jay: "Ah fuck!"

Ruby: "That is her ability, to dissolve into shadows at will."

Jay: "Know how to beat it."

Jade: "Get her away from the shadows and land a massive hit."

Jay: "Care to explain how we can get her away?"

Ruby: "If we can get far en--"

Ruby gets suckered punched on the back of her head and is knocked out.

Greed: "(blankly) One down. Three to go."

She disappears into the shadows.

Jade: "Ruby!"

Jake: "We should get away from the shadows!"

The three run to the center of the room.

Jade: "Do you two know how to get that bitch out of the shadow?"

Greed appears, ready to knock out Jade, but she uses her counter ability to stun her for a second.

Jade:"We have to hur--"

Ruby appears behind Greed, tying her up and pushing her away from the shadow.

Ruby: "Now!"

Jake: "I got this!"

Jake's body begins to glow.

Jay: "You two might want to get out of the way."

Jade: "Why?"

Jay: "Just get out of the way and watch."

Jake's back sprouts wings.

Ruby: "Whoa!"

Jade: "How can he do that."

Jay: "First thing he is 100% not human."

Jade: "Then what is he?"

Jay: "He is from a piece of Reith known as Toriph, and he is a descendant of both the Angels and Demons."

Jade: "That is crazy!"

Jay: "Yeah? Well he is also the descendant of both races leaders."

Jake slashes his sword, sending out several large and sharp icicles from the ground, then unleashes several fire coated fists at supersonic speeds at Greed, then performed several poisonous slashes with is daggers, sent several pieces of debris using wind from his staff, unleashed an arrow loaded with electricity, and wrapped it up with wrapping his whip around Greed, smashing her into the ground.

Jake: "That is something I only bust out when shit gets real."

Jake puts his wings back into his shirt.

Jade: "That was awesome!"

Jay: "That technique is called Hell Render. Jake says only Angel Royals can perform it."

Jake: "Pretty much."

Jade: "Is she dead?"

Jake checks for a pulse.

Jake: "She's fine, That was only the 3rd time I've done that and most of my attacks weren't as strong as the last time."

Jade: "Now let's go take out that Queen Salis bitch!"

They step into the throne room.

Salis: "So, you are Lucifer's son."

Jake: "Then you can guess why we are here?"

Salis: "My blood."

Jay: "Bingo!"

Salis: "You're that Kros kid that killed Boris."

Jay: "So word got out really quick."

Salis: "Kill me then."

Jay: "I was expecting more of a fight out of you, but okay."

Ruby: "I'll do it."

Ruby draws her sword.

Salis:" Ah, the next Greed, I hope you realize you are killing a 2nd gen Queen?"

Ruby: "You tried killing my sister and I using our own mother."

Salis: "Fair enough."

Salis gets her head split into two.

Jade: "Knowing that bitch, she locked her son in the dungeon."

They enter the dungeon from a nearby doorway, locating Joshua in a nearby cell.

Jade: "Need help?"

Jade smashes the lock with her hammer.

Joshua: "You two are 3rd gen sins. How did you get here?"

Jade: "Skill and help from these two."

Jake: "Listen, you must now take up the throne."

Joshua: "Why?"

Ruby: "Because your mother was trying to end the world and she needed us dead or placed in a dungeon to accomplish it."

Joshua: "That explains 7 years ago. Is she dead by your hands?"

Ruby raises her hand.

Ruby: "My hand."

Joshua: "It had to be done. What about her guardian?"

Jake: "She is alive..."

As they walked out they found Greed recovered conscious.

Greed: "What happened?"

Jake: "I snapped you out of a brainwashing that is what happened."

Greed turns around.

Greed: "How could you? You don't look like a sin."

Jake: "I'm not even one drop human, world is split into six pieces, you were brainwashed for 7 years, tried to kill or capture your children..."

Greed: "What?!"

Jay: "We will let these two explain it."

Jade and Ruby come out of the dungeon, with Jade carrying Joshua on her back.

Greed: "You said I've been brainwashed for 7 years."

Jake: "And nearly captured or killed your children."

Jade: "Mom?"

Ruby: "One down."
