Ryo's eyes narrowed on the approaching thug, one of them still twitching. "You're all garbage! Each and every last one of you deserves nothing but death!" On that cue, he thrust his arm into the air, the bracelet releasing a blinding flash of light. "And I'll be the one to see to it!"
You're going to kill them? After all of that worry over a bunch of thieves!?
They weren't Korin would have been his answer, but he was too busy flinging blast after blast down the corridor.

Before the neighborhood knew what was going on, the blinding flash and the constant explosions certainly raised activity in the area. The spectacle could be seen quite a ways, as X began to rush to the scene out of curiosity. Zac too, went in for a closer look, and never had he seen his pursuer so outraged and crazy.
Regul's' thought process was quite different. Kill?! What had happened to the man he'd just made a comrade out of? Swiftly knocking back the Korin behind them, the knight soon grabbed onto the Spearman. "Calm down you fool! Do you want to get the innocents involved in this!?" He did his best to make the man budge, but alot of good that was doing at this rate.

Good intentions met with violence. He whipped right around, smacking the knight aside. As if that weren't bad enough, Ryo spotted the Korin that Regul had dealt with. He promptly resumed his rampage. Well, until his arms went completely limp. "Just what do you think you're doing!?"
Impeding your tantrum! Look around you! There isn't a single person in the area that isn't terrified!
"Don't you dare stop me! Not now! Not when it concerns them!" His legs then buckled, dropping him to his knees.
You no longer have a say in this.

Regul quickly took this time to check the person he'd knocked back. He was still breathing, but the blasts did a number on him. The other soldiers were nowhere in sight, so it was anyone's' guess what'd happened to them. Without any warning, the knight whipped around and socked Ryo square in the face. Might not've done anything, but it'd atleast get a point across.
"How dare you..." He began. "You took mercy as the bandits, the gangsters, and all the others, but some guy flashes a piece of jewelry at you and that's your exception!?" The man bashed a nearby wall, causing a small crack to form. "And to think I started to consider you as a companion..."
"Sorry to interrupt..." A new voice came in, breaking the stiffness in the air. It was the blue knight from earlier, X. "But I think it'd be best for you guys to clear out. I doubt that was the last of them."
Zac was right behind the man, viewing how the alley was covered in scorch marks. It seemed... almost familiar.

Ryo was sprawled out over the ground. Not much he could do about being punched with the bracelet inhibiting him. At the very least, it had redirected his focus to Regul. "Did you see that medal...? That's the mark of the Korin...!" Yet, rather than rage, he sounded as though he were about to break down. "What do the Korin know of mercy!? They kill man, woman, and child! Those that can't defend themselves! Thugs, thieves, criminals... At least they retain some semblance of mercy, however twisted!"

"I know what they are and I know what they do." Regul was pretty disgusted by this whole experience. "That's why we need to show we're better than those who take innocent lives! Your reputation as a Stamarian is no better than theirs as Korin!"
Regul began to walk off as X more entered onto the scene. The blue-armored man kneeled down at the Spearman, taking up his wrist. "I'll tell you this much." he started.
"This bracelet of yours is called a Dra-Seroon. And if you don't start trying to see eye-to-eye with it, you'll be dead before long."

The nerve of that man! I wouldn't just let you die... Not unless you did something absurdly stupid.
Ryo couldn't do much else but glare at the man. "...Why couldn't you tell me this before? Was my bumbling around town that amusing? Were you just messing with me?"

"You recall I said earlier that it seemed familiar, yes?" X replied, dropping the man's' wrist. "Well I just remembered. Now then, feel free to wallow in your self pity." And so he ran off.
Zac simply continued to stare into the empty alleyway. Where had he seen something like this before...? Well whatever it was would have to wait. The kid remembered something else he needed to ask X, and thus gave chase.

He thinks this is self pity? That man is a moron.
Finally free of the bracelet's hold, Ryo rose to his feet. "Regul must hate me now."
Probably. Going to do anything about it?
"I doubt I could. I can't stomach the thought of showing restraint to murderers like them..."
Why not? You'll show restraint to thugs. Many of which have probably slaughtered plenty of innocent people.
"You don't know that!"
And you don't know if all of the Korin are really murderers. Even if it were most of them, would you still be willing to take the risk of killing an innocent person?
"That's not..."
Enough excuses! You can't just blindly believe in whatever you're told! Now go apologize to the guy. You could have have hit him during your little tantrum.
And so Ryo was sent running forward. Not by his choosing, but by the bracelet's. It could have shown more restraint though, as Ryo slammed right into Regul's back.
Whoops. Good luck, kid.

With force, the knight sent Ryo flying off of him. "What do you want?' The man was obviously annoyed.
--Meanwhile, somewhat nearby--
Zac had caught up to X and gotten his attention. "Hey, one last thing before I set off..." the boy reached into his pockets and pulled out the symbol he'd carried around with him where-ever he went. "Do you know what this is?" The blue armored man stared at the symbol of the shadowed over blade long and hard. "...Yes." he finally answered. "It's a symbol most commonly used in Stamaria."
That settled it. Those army types back there DID know something afterall. Zac thanked tha man for his help and ran off. It was a risky mission, but hey, since when did he not take risks anyway?

"Uh..." Words escaping him, Ryo just sheepishly stared up at the knight.
Try sorry.
"Sorry."

Regul got a sly idea. "I'll forgive you Ryo, but only if you can bust a funky fresh move."

...He can't be serious? Funk has been outdated for years. I can't even remember the last time I saw anything resembling it.
Undeterred, Ryo gave a nod and broke out into a wild dance. What he proceeded to do cannot be expressed by mere words, but rest assured that it was the funkiest thing this side of the planet.

Well... damn. He actually did it. After doing a sort of facepalm, Regul held up his side of the deal, he did say he'd forgive him. Even if it was unexpected Ryo would do such a thing. "Alright. I forgive you this time." With a sigh, the knight asked, "So what will you do now. Is there anything left for you here?"

...That was certainly something, Ryo. Impressive, some would say. But for my sake, I'm going to pretend it never happened. Don't ever do that again.
"I'll be heading back home. What that blue guy told me is about as good as it's going to get."
