"Ok, I give, what's going on? I've been through a lot of good cop bad cop, and this is really not normal."
[i]He remarked, looking up at the Ranger with a confused look on his face.[/i]

-
"Good cop, bad cop? Lucky for you. I'm not a cop at all." [b]He shook his head as he looked down at the kid [/b]
-
"So why help? Not like you guys necessarily like people stealing things around here." [i]He replied, looking at the man with some suspicion as to his intents.[/i]
-
"You're right, but then again the people believe we don't care about them. They speak against the dojo for reasons we really are not responsible for."
-
"So... let 'em. Not like they could actually take any of you guys. You have literal gods walking around." [i]He said, seeming to think that it was fairly stupid that people would go against the Dojo, but then again, he was there robbing people.[/i]
-
"We don't want to put them in harm. Letting a few robbers go doesn't kill anyone. Just pisses them off."
-
"Well, that wasn't what I meant. Not a lot of places kill robbers, you know. It's really only common in trashier places." [i]He replied.[/i]
-
"Lucky you're here and not there then."
-
"So you literally just let thieves go? Like, no punishment, no nothing? Not a good way to deter crime..." [i]A thief with logic in regards to the very laws he broke. Interesting.[/i]
-
"I said sometimes. And most of the time people call them in. It might not seem logical, but having people committing crimes shows the people they still need us."
-
"So despite having the power to make a positive difference, you just let bad stuff happen so they need you. That sounds a lot like a rip-off." [i]He said.[/i]
-
"It is a rip off. A complete rip off!"
-
"You guys are straight stupid. Just gonna put that out there." [i]He said, smirking.[/i]
-
"Is that so?"
-
"Yeah. The guy who gets caught by the cops is just as bad as the cops who let him go again." [i]He retorted.[/i]
-
"That doesn't make sense."
-
"I'm stupid for getting caught. You're stupid for letting me go scot-free. Understand?" [i]He said, rather amazed that the man didn't get what he had just said.[/i]
-
"Yeah sure. I can always arrest you..."
-
"You could..." [i]He said, as he arched his back in the exo, activating the manual release and forcing the chassis open. Rolling out, he quickly leapt to his feet, a strange fingerless glove-like device covering his hand. He set off in a sprint seconds after getting to his feet. Apparently the suit did have a manual system in it. [/i]
-
"Farewell!!!" [b]Watcher turned, walking away [/b]
-
"Well, I mean, considering you haven't done anything to me for stealing, can't say I blame them. Not like you really enforce justice." [i]He replied, bringing up a valid point.[/i] "I'm not exactly a merciless murderer or anything, but still, I figured you guys were serious on crimes and stuff."
-
"We would be, but sometimes you have to send a message. That we are the peacekeepers of this land, and we keep these people alive."
