Meanwhile, at Khan's secret headquarters, the mysterious tiger was having a meeting with the members of his group. Everyone was present, sitting around the long rectangle table with Khan calmly on the center of it.

"I won't waste your time, everyone. Here's your agenda for the week. Josette," Khan began without further ado, ordering his female elf assistant to explain the plan to them.

"Yes. Mr. Tusk and Mr. Thorn, your target is Starlight Mall. There should be enough Maligna at the area to summon demons to slaughter and feast on as much victims as possible," Josette narrated their next plan of attack in herusual monotone voice.

"Can do, Missy," Tusk snorted.

"Mr. Jale, you will accompany them for backups and stop the securities from interfering," the elf continued.

"That won't be a problem," the crow said with a smirk.

"What if the Millennium Slasher and his buds interfered? They seem to be onto us," Thorn then brought up, his thick arms crossed over his chest and hiding his eyes under his cowboy hat.

"You are forbidden to engage and harm Hazard or the Kirin in any way. The rest, you can do with them as you please," Khan answered directly, making Megalo fidget about in his seat.

"What about me?" Megalo asked.

"Mr. Megalo and Mr. Onyx are to be staying in HQ till further notice," Josette replied.

"Awww... no playtime for Onyx," the chameleon frowned.

"That's bullshit!" the panther retorted angrily as he pounded his fist on the table. "Master Khan! Why Jale!? I should be the one to...!"

"Quiet, Megalo," Khan silenced him with a piercing look.

"B-But..."

"You failed me more than once so far. Just sit this one out until I give you another chance, understood?" Khan strictly told Megalo, the latter struggling to keep his cool.

"Ye... Yes..." the frustrated black feline grunted against his will.

"Good. If there aren't any other questions, we are done here. You may leave," Khan then dismissed them as he was the first to stand up and exit the meeting room, with Josette typically following him.

Megalo soon followed suit and got out of there with a cranky mood, but he was then caught up by Jale, standing by his side.

"Hey, hey, don't be like this, Meggy. So you don't get to join in this one massacre, no biggie. There'll be other times where you get to quench your thirst for blood," the black feathered avian said with a lighthearted grin, oddly being compassionate to his feline colleague.

"Fuck you, Jale! It's not about that!" Megalo snapped back at him.

"Then what's eating you up?"

"It's none of your fucking business, just leave me alone."

"Aw, don't give me that. I know that you hate everyone, but I know you kinda like me. So you can tell me," Jale teased.

"Shut up! I don't like you one bit, you smugly dick!"

"Heh, well then, spill it."

"Look, I'm just pissed at why Master Khan is interested this much in the Slasher! How come he doesn't let us just kill his ass?! What's so special about him?!" Megalo finally confessed.

"Are you kidding me? He's the freaking Millennium Slasher. Maybe the boss wants him to join us. How awesome would that be?" Jale jokingly stated, but the panther didn't find that amusing one bit.

"Don't even joke about that! Argh! I just can't stand this! What is Master Khan thinking?!" Megalo growled in frustration.

"Yeah! I don't like the Slasher too, Meggy!" Onyx suddenly reared his ugly head from out of Megalo's shadow, startling the panther.

"FUCKINGDAMMIT! ONYX!" Megalo reacted madly and slashed his claws at where Onyx showed up, but he missed him as the chameleon ducked into the shadow and showed up again in Jale's. "You retarded freakshow! I told you many fucking times to stop sneaking up on me!"

"Hehehehe! Soooorry!" Onyx sniggered, not being the least sorry.

"Awww, poor Megalo. I guess he's worried he's not gonna be Master Khan's favorite bitch anymore," the three of them then heard Tusk say not too far away from them.

"What did you say?!" Megalo snarled.

"It's okay, Megalo, we understand. You feel threatened that the Slasher will take your place. After all, he's been kicking your ass left and right from the get-go. Of course Master Khan will want him more than you now," the boar said, mocking the enraged panther.

"SHUT THE FUCKING HELL UP!!" Megalo lost his temper and lunged at Tusk with his sharp claws head on. He swung his arm at the boar, but in a blink of an eye, his claws were blocked by Thorn's left hand. "Urgh! Dammit!" Megalo grunted, unable to penetrate through the bull's fingers, which had turned into an ivory- colored iron-sturdy material instead of flesh.

"Why don't you be a good pussy and just back off of my bro?" Thorn rumbled sternly and easily shoved Megalo to the back.

"Fuck! You wanna make it serious?! I'm all for it!" Megalo unsheathed both of his hands' claws and was ready to fight Thorn, but Jale stopped him.

"Come on, Megalo. Cut it out. They're just teasing you. You don't want to get on the boss' bad side, do you?" Jale tried to convince the panther to back off and he seemingly managed to do so, as Megalo cursed under his breath and pulled back his claws.

"Atta' boy. Leave the Slasher to big boys," Thorn smirked, his left hand turning back to its original flesh form.

"Meggy, lets just go..." Onyx grabbed Megalo's arm in attempt to calm him down, but the red-haired panther pushed his hand off.

"Don't TOUCH me!" Megalo snarled at the chameleon and made him whimper away into a shadow. The panther then gritted his teeth anger and just left without another word.

"My my... Can't you two tone it down? You know well how touchy he can be," Jale said to the T.T. Brothers, fanning himself with his own fedora hat.

"Heh, you know we can't help it, Jale. He's just too easy," Tusk snickered.

"Too well. Anyway, I gotta go prepare for tomorrow's mission. We'll catch up later?" the crow saluted them and was about to take his leave, when he noticed something peculiar Thorn was wearing. "Hey, that's a pretty nice jacket you're wearing there, Thorny. Where'd you get it?" he asked about the black leather jacket that the bull had on him.

"Oh this? It's a gift from a friend. You like it?" Thorn smugly smirked as he flexed his brawny upper frame, the muscles bulging under the tight jacket and he turned around to give him a look at his back, the words 'wanderlust' written clearly on the back.
