This killer tried to get Mac, huh?

They better pray I don't land so much as a finger on them. I was concerned before, but now this punk has my full attention. I almost hope the police get to 'em before I do.

C'mon. Give me some credit for brains, man - I knew from the outset that this killer could possibly be good enough to hurt me. There's always that chance. But if I let myself worry about things like that, I wouldn't bother getting out of bed in the morning.

....and don't be too hard on your species. Every species has it's good members, it's great members, and it's downright rotten ones. My species was no different. It's this individual I got beef with... not your race as a whole, even though there've been bumps in the road.

... Hm. Then I suppose it is up to me to worry then.

Very well. I can only hope the culprit doesn't do too much damage then. Good luck.

... Yes, yes. I know. It is a habit I'm trying to eliminate. [He was so used to dogging his whole species, but apparently, even a non-human being thinks they're cool. Even Pokemon do. They aren't worth hating generally.]

If it makes you feel any better, N? I've survived two wars against alien invaders, destroyed mechs the size of large buildings with my bare hands, beaten up a giant demon-fire-dragon thing AND a super advanced battle robot at the same time and banged fists with the best this academy has to offer and I'm still here typing this. You have very, very little to worry about, alright?

Besides. For all we know the killer ISN'T Human. I mean, he's killing natural born Human Males at this point. Might be some disgruntled Non-Human comitting hate crimes against your kind. Like I said - every species has 'em. Those rotten S.O.B.s that make life worse for everyone.

... That does help, yes. [holy motherfucking shit knuckles how in the world do you even do that are you superman what the fuck] If you've done that, little can likely stand in your way.

[That last thing, though, makes him wonder...]

A non-human. What sort of non-human are you guessing...?

[Superman WISHES he was this stone-cold bad ass.] Hey, I've lost my fair share too - but this punk is gonna have to work REAL hard to add Me to his body count.

Eh. Take your pick. Non-Humans all over probably feel marginalized enough that some unhinged freak feels like 'evening the score' with Humanity. Could be anything from abused Pokemon to a Hedgehog who was refused at a Job Interview for bein' too short. I dunno. I'm just trying to figure out something from the pattern of victims to give me SOMETHING to go on, y'know? It might just be a really, REALLY mean Human.

I would have to think it is a very murderous human, and yet...

... I suppose an abused Pokemon would not surprise me. My father's Hydreigon was particularly brutal. [In fact, it wouldn't even surprise him if it was the reason why his father may or may not have been missing an eye.]

Regardless, they must be taught the error of their ways. If it is a Pokemon, especially... let me know. I may be able to console them.

Seems to be something with the species - those Hydreigon sure are grumpy sorts. Hilda's has some serious fight to it, too.

Eh.... I don't care what species this killer is to be honest. Beyond using that information to catch 'em. I'll treat 'em the same way, Human, Pokemon.... heck, if it were another Echidna, they'd still get no leniency from me. Killing is wrong, no matter who you are and I ain't gonna tolerate it. Not on my turf.

If it turns out it's a Pokemon, though, you're more than free to try turn 'em around after they've faced justice for what they've done. You're one of the good ones, N.

[That... made him feel good. It made him feel like there was a lot more hope. Knuckles was a bit on the physical side, but for a good cause, right?

Just like Mac, it was defense. Defense with honor.

... He wasn't sure if he could oppose this at all. All he could do was hope for the best, right?]

You are very honorable, Knuckles. You see, I could only dream the entire world thought this way, without a need to kill. A need to hurt.

For this reason, I will help you.

Unfortunately a desire to harm without cause is hard-wired into too many people and species for it to ever go completely... all we can do is stop it where we see it and hope our example will inspire others to do the same.

Good. Every set of eyes and ears is worth something and can make a difference. You get any leads, let me know.

I suppose there is not much more to do. A more colossal process of elimination would be ineffective. [He'd know. He tried.]

I shall, and I extend the same to you. Thank you.
