Kratos didn't even make a sound as Yuno tackled him out of the building. He remained quiet as the knives were plunged into him. As his vision finally became clear once more, he could see Yuno sitting atop him with the look of a wounded beast ready to strike out once more. He couldn't blame her for her anger. After being possessed by the spirit within Skull Kid's mask, he couldn't help but feel that he had yet again been made a pawn by a force far beyond him. Which was why he didn't resist as Yuno began to pound his face into mush. Once Yuki finally got her off him, Kratos ripped the knives out of his person and flung them to the side. His face was an absolute mess with a broken nose, blood smeared his face and various puncture wounds running down his chest.
Looking towards Yuno and Yuki, he huffed before drawing his blades and looking at the remaining guards. The ones who had avoided being sucked up in the tempest or being frozen to death. They shook in their boots at even a
look from the spartan who in all honesty still had energy left in his reserves. But getting hit in the face repeatedly by a pissed off goddess did drain a bit of his energy.
"Leave. Now."
The guards didn't even have to think twice and quickly deciding screwing with Kratos or Yuno wouldn't lead to a long and healthy life, they threw down their weapons and ran for the hills. Spitting out a tooth, Kratos winced as he turned to face Yuno and Yuki.
"I attacked both of you and I was wrong to do so. The spirit within that mask burrowed it's way into my head, misdirected who the real enemy is and played on my past to achieve it's control. But it seems that it's host in the child has been found and spotted. Therefore it's grasp on me became too weak to sustain and I was released. Your response was more than warranted. I look forward to the day if one arises where we may fight each other without one side being manipulated. Your strength is enough to rival that of Zeus himself." Kratos admitted before stumbling as the two cops unloaded their guns into him.
Kratos was durable to say the least and although the bullets stung like a son of a bitch, he stayed on his feet and glared towards Jamie and his partner. He had no time for these fools and their projectile launchers. Someone had found the Skull Kid and was engaging him and he wouldn't lose this chance. So raising one of his blades, he'd slam it down as a section of the ground erupted and a thick wall of ice rose up to separate Jamie and Leo from him and Yuki/Yuno. Sparing another glance towards the odd couple, Kratos took off in the air and looked towards where he could barley make out figures leaping from rooftop to rooftop.
"If you've still the energy to fight then the one we share a mutual hatred of is within our grasp."
Then without waiting for a response, Kratos soared off in the direction of the Clock Tower and the buildings near it. Skull Kid was busy with his own problems. Hanji and Levi certainly were a persistent bunch. Flying could only get him so far when they had those nifty gadgets of theirs. So he decided to try and even things up. Swervng past particularly tall buildings, Skull Kid used his power to drag the buildings down to try and smash them down onto the two. As far as he was concerned, Victor and the two currently chasing him were nothing more than pests while the real threat lied in Yuno and Kratos.
But he was so close to Termina Field! He just had to lose them in the wilderness there and the natural disasters or the hostile fauna would take care of the rest. As he toppled building after building in an attempt to slow down Levi and Hanji or possibly crush them, Skull Kid returned to the rooftops as he was more than nimble and agile enough to leap from them without any fear of falling or being caught from behind. Even when he was in a hurry like this, this was still treated like nothing more than a game after all!
"You're all moving sooooo slow! I'm growing older by the second! If you three don't hurry up, I might keel over before you can even catch me! Hee hee!"
