...And So It Begins....
...Between It All...
...In The End...

For a moment, Reed felt as if he was dead, then he saw his father, standing there, trench coat fluttering. His father walked up to him, “Reed, just let it all go, I know you want to fight for me, but fight for everyone, fight for your mother…” Reed looked at his dead, “Mother…” Reed began to have a flashback of his mother holding him when he was just a baby. He then awoke to see Bynde striking downward, “For you father! For You Mother! For Everyone!!” Reed grabbed the dagger that had fell and threw it into Bynde’s legs. Bynde dropped his sword as he bent over in pain, “You’ll pay for that.” Reed smirked at him as he kicked him hard in the chest and then turned around to punch him in the gut. Bynde let out a hard breath, “I can’t breathe.” Reed then ran behind him to punch him in the kidneys and then he ran around him again and punched him in the throat, “Now you can’t breathe.” As Bynde sat there on his knees he muttered out, coughing up blood, “Finish it.” Reed at first decided he would let him go, but then he decided, “No, It would be better to take this scum off the streets.” Reed took Bynde’s sword and kicks him down on the ground. He then flipped it around stabbing it back into ground, this time through Bynde’s neck. As he did this the Kotsuyamei twins jumped out from the bushes. They began to mutter, “How could you…” One of them couldn’t finish for Reed had shot him in the gut with his Platinum Desert Eagle .50. Reed looked at the other one, “Die!” Gunshots heard in the background as the other slump over. Reed wiped the sweat off his forehead as he collapsed for a second catching his breathe. He then told himself to get up and he did. He walked over and picked up Kalen and headed back to HQ. As he opened the door, Syndicate member came out the hall, wondering what had happened. Before Reed could start, out walk Lucavex to interrupt him, “The only thing that you all need to know is that Reed fought bravely and so did Kalen.” Reed continued to walk with Lucavex as they went out to the back of the HQ, were they lay their fallen warriors. They buried Kalen as they all stood around, a song could be heard, a cooling melody with a beautiful voice in it. Reed turned to see a woman with amber rich eyes he walked up to her she smiled. Her name was Angel and she was about 5’7” with amber eyes and rich black hair. The two continued to talk and they became the best friends and eventually married. Lucavex was shutdown by someone 4 years later and Reed became the leader. Reed had a long run as the leader of The Syndicate, from age 20 to around 37. When he retired he announced that his son would be the one to replace him, but he would still be the CEO to manage who gets in and what they do. After this he went home to be with his wife Angel, the two sat on a porch near their beach house. Jotaro was out in the sands, training, how his father had instructed him. Reed’s other son, Jojo, was only 12 and too young to join The Syndicate even though he sometimes tagged along in secret mission with Jotaro. Angel was against but she was also in TS one day and knows how much fun it is. Jojo and Jotaro began to spar, as Jojo quickly got the upper hand, Jojo had speed that Jotaro could never match, but Jotaro had intelligence that surpassed even his father. As the two were out bullets whizzed by their unsuspecting faces. The two look out to see their rivals, Dark Lotus. Standing there were two warriors, clones of the Kotsuyamei Twins, but behind them a warrior walked up, it appeared to be Bynde, but he was an android. Reed kissed his Angel and told her to get inside. She ran in and threw out Reed’s Desert Eagle and his sword. Reed holstered his gun as he walked with his sword, dragging it in the sand creating a smooth line. He walked up between his boys as they all began to power up. He looked at Jojo, and then at Jotaro, “Boys… fight with honor.” They nodded as they all charged at their enemies. It was a crazy battle, leaving Jotaro injured with only one arm. Reed fought valiantly and so did Jojo, but during the battle Jotaro was watching Jojo, making sure he was ok, when he lost his arm. Jojo and Jotaro now are Co-Leaders of The Syndicate and Reed stays at home with Angel, fully retired. The two sit there every night on the same porch watching the sunset, and enjoying every moment of it.
