Kidd sat in a white room, deep in thought. He couldn't stop thinking about why Niki was so obsessed with Fein. He considered all the possible reasons in his head, trying to make sense of it all.
"Maybe it's because Fein broke Niki's record as the youngest S-rank," Kidd muttered to himself, "but that can't be all of it. There's more to it than that."
He leaned back in his chair, staring up at the ceiling as he continued to think. "Fein and Niki do look pretty similar, both in appearance and personality. Maybe Niki sees him as some sort of rival."
As he spoke, Kidd's expression shifted from confusion to realization. "That's it! Niki is threatened by Fein. He sees him as a potential danger to his power and control."
Kidd's eyes narrowed as he spoke, and his body tensed up with the realization. "Fein is a threat, and that's why Niki wants him eliminated. But why did I have to be the one to betray him?"
He sighed and ran a hand through his short hair. "I didn't have a choice, I had to do what Niki said to protect my family. But I still feel guilty about what I did to Fein and Michael."
Kidd's mind raced with these thoughts as he tried to make sense of everything. He knew that he couldn't dwell on the past and that he had to focus on the present. But his guilt and regret kept nagging at him, and he didn't know how to shake it off.
He stood up from the chair, pacing back and forth as he muttered to himself. "I have to find a way to make things right. I have to redeem myself and earn their forgiveness. But how?"
...
Kidd had been hesitant to deliver the letter to Fein, but he knew he had no other choice. He made his way to the location he chose to leave the letter and placed it under a large rock. He doesn't care if he didn't do accurately what Niki instructed him as he wasn't prepared to see his friends yet. He took a deep breath and walked away, trying to push the thought of what might happen to Fein's mother out of his mind.
As Kidd walked away from the rock, he felt a mix of emotions - guilt, fear, and regret. He couldn't help but wonder if there was another way to save his family without betraying his friends. But it was too late now, the letter was delivered and he had to live with the consequences of his actions.
Hours passed, and a shadow soldier working under Fein found the letter under the rock. He quickly brought it to Fein's attention, who immediately recognized Niki's handwriting. Fein's heart sank as he read the contents of the letter. His worst fears had come true - Niki had found out about his mother.
Fein couldn't believe that Kidd had betrayed them. He had been one of their closest friends and now he was working for the enemy. Fein's mind raced as he tried to come up with a plan to save his mother. He knew he couldn't go to the Laughing Phantom base alone, it would be suicide.
As Fein and his army approached the Laughing Phantom's base, his heart was pounding with a mix of anger and fear. He knew that his mother's life was on the line, and he would do anything to save her.
Fein's face was set in a determined expression, his eyes fixed on the entrance of the base. His shadow soldiers and Eye of the Dark Knights were fighting fiercely against the S-rank members, but Fein didn't stop to join the fight. He knew that he had to get to Niki as quickly as possible.
Fein used his speed and agility to dodge the attacks of the S-rank members. He could hear the sound of swords clashing and people screaming around him, but his mind was focused on one thing only - finding Niki.
Finally, Fein arrived at the innermost chamber of the base where Niki was waiting for him. Niki was sitting on a throne-like chair, a smug smile on his face.
Fein's expression turned into a scowl as he saw Niki. "Where is my mother?" he demanded.
Niki chuckled. "Your mother is safe for now. But she won't be if you don't do as I say."
Fein's fists clenched in anger. "What do you want from me?"
"Who knows?"
Fein's heart sank as he saw his mother, Melissa, being brought out of the cell by Niki. Her face was bruised, her left eye was swollen shut, and her clothes were stained with blood. Her hair was a tangled mess, and she looked as if she hadn't slept or eaten in days.
Fein's fists clenched tightly as he took a step forward, his eyes locked onto Niki's. "What have you done to her?" he growled, his voice filled with anger and frustration.
Niki simply smirked and gestured towards Melissa. "Oh, nothing too serious," he said, his tone mocking. "Just a few bruises to remind you of the consequences of crossing me."
Melissa looked up at Fein, tears streaming down her face. "Fein, my son," she whispered. "I'm so sorry. I never wanted you to get involved in any of this."
Fein stepped forward, ignoring the pain in his heart as he took in his mother's battered appearance. "Don't worry, Mom," he said, his voice steady. "I'll get you out of here. I'll make sure he pays for what he's done."
Niki simply laughed, the sound grating on Fein's nerves. "Oh, how touching," he said, his voice dripping with sarcasm. "But I'm afraid it's too late for that. You see, Fein, you're too valuable to me. And as for your mother, well, let's just say she's served her purpose."
Fein felt his blood run cold at Niki's words. "What do you mean?" he demanded, his eyes narrowing.
Niki simply smirked and gestured towards the door. "She's just a bait so you would come here," he said, his voice indifferent.
