Jake looked at Rose for a bit.
"So he was trying to kill his daughter... over a power rune or something?" he asked Rose. "Yeah, that jackass needs a good-
"Erm, my condolences, ma'am. Is your daughter alright? I think it would be best if you take her home so she can rest. If you need any help, ask for Jake. The name's John Grendell, but my friends call me Jake."

Jake winced.
"She okay? The little girl, that is. How long has it been this way?"
Jake muttered under his breath something to the effect of 'just ain't right'. How does a father try and kill his own daughter, Nobody or not?
He then noticed Thomas' entry.
"Hey Tom," he said. "Yeah, it's been... kind of wrecked. Some jerk formerly known as Lucus, I think he's called Chaos now. We almost had him, but a buddy of his called 'War' bailed him out.
"So yeah, good thing you didn't buy tickets. Or maybe they were worth it, if you enjoy crowd-endangering pyrokinetics. Raised a real storm, that it did.
"So what were you up to?" Jake raised his hands defensively. "Sorry, just trying to make small talk."

Jake blinks as the man teleports away.
"Wait, so his buddy, that girl's father, shows up and tries to kill her, trying to tear through us for stopping him, and then he says 'we're fighting on the same side'?
"Did... did I miss something here?"
Jake shrugs.
"Ah well. Best not to dwell on it right now." He turned to check on the group.
"So, Ascot," he asked the kid. "And you're Joshua, right? Why was he... well, you know what he was trying to do. But really, why?! Doesn't make a damn lick of sense..."

Joshua Tamashii said Yeah. What ability will Jake take?
After this fight? I dunno, I'll have to sit down and think it through a bit. Hopefully, I'll have one ready by the time the next fight comes around.
Jake raised an eyebrow.
"Whatever happened to 'let Serin settle this nicely'?" However, he did give a smirk; he liked this one's spirit. "And let's be honest, given the type of company this guy's keeping, I don't think being nice works here. I mean, his buddy did try to murder your friend, wasn't he?"

Jake continued to hammer away at the adversary when suddenly the axes in his hands vibrated strangely and suddenly yanked him back. Jake struggled to control them again, but had to unsummon them, enabling him to land on the ground. He resummoned his Keyaxes, but by then, he was too far away from Lucus to continue the fight.
"Okay, that was new," Jake muttered, feeling the axes in his hand. He looked at the red-robed mage that had just appeared.
"Great, another clown," he grunted. He should have realized by now that bad guys were like Russian dolls; open one up and another showed up. "You jerks have a union or something?!
"You tell me, buddy. Your twisted comrade attacked us, and tried to kill several people. His former family clearly doesn't want his psychopathic sorry ass back, and his mouth had written a check his ass couldn't cover. So keep your rabid dog on a leash."

Well, Jake was beating the tar out of Chaos for both reasons - both because he was an asshole who deserved a beating, and because he took on a dozen or so fighters while assuming he was invincible. When he slipped, the ass-whooping he received was incredibly cathartic.
Jake was knocked back by the wind - fortunately, not as far as Lucus would have liked. He struck the ground with his Keyaxe, anchoring himself to the ground to prevent himself from being blown back. He had to admit; the old coot was a pretty dangerous enemy. No sense in letting him get up again, no second chances. He acted the tough guy, now let him see what it was like now the shoe was on the other foot.
Jake summoned his second Keyaxe, König Raubtier, a silver-and-platinum color palette of Kaiser Leo. He charged his attack, and attacked with his shotlock; Photon Charge. Lucus was immediately slammed by Jake multiple times, the blond-haired man effectively leaving afterimages with every attack. Every axe blow exploded with the power of light, driven hard by muscles honed by years of exercise and battle.
"Bad man!" he teased. "No! Means! No! Now get lost before you lose more than your dignity."
He danced and wove with ever blow, using his axes to carve through any wind the Nobody could throw at him. The trick here was to avoid letting the man use his wind magic to trap him, and to constantly keep him off-balance.

Well, if I were a boss character, I'd pretty much make sure that I'd be immune to instant death spells.
Doesn't mean that it still can't be used to whammy a villain and throw him off his game.

Renose said It doesn't matter how fast or powerful Lucus is. If he were to get swallowed up by a black hole he would be dead. This goes for just about anyone else in the entire universe as well.
Well, no. Even black holes have a limit to their range.
The guys within that range, however (namely, us and anyone else in Twilight Town), are pretty much screwed.
