Cross grabbed Ink by his scarf and lifted him into the air, almost choking him. He looked at him with hate, anger and rage in his eyes. Geno, Classic and reaper watched. Geno gave Cross his medallion, the heart he had lost. Upon noticing that the scene was violent, the three of them left, leaving Cross alone with Ink:
"It's time for you to be punished, you little liar."
Cross kneed Ink in the chest, throwing him against the tree. At that moment he threw one of his 2 bone knives, holding it by the back of his subscarf, leaving it nailed to the tree and hanging in the air. Cross waited for the others to leave, and once he was alone, he began to practice target shooting using Ink as a target:
"I'm going to punish you, and don't beg for mercy, because I'm NOT going to be gentle."
