SPOILERIFIC THIS THREAD WILL BE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
(ye, hath been warned)

***
When the series is nearing the climax, Ben comes back to fight; leaving Cross worrying herself with the pups. While Ben is making his journey back, he starts losing his sight.

Then he runs into Sniper, has this big fight then jumps off a cliff with him in his jaws. At this point, Hyena finds his courage and jumps down the cliff after them.

Here's my question.

We see Ben make a return, but what happens to Sniper and Hyena? I'm pretty sure this is explained in the manga, but the series hasn't been released in the US. DOes anybody know what could have happened to them?

!!!!!!!!SPOILER!!!!!!!!!

Sniper and Ben fall into the ravine and Hyena jumps after them. In the river Hyena manages to drag Ben to the shore but Sniper attacks him. Underwater he rips Hyena's stomach open. "Unfortunately" large boulders are moved by the current and Sniper's legs are smashed between two boulders.

He later on returns to Ou in a dog wheelchair and uses the name "Murder S". His head had also been badly injured and now he has a metal plate attached to his head. The new bad guy, Hougen, forces him out of his wheelchair and his metal covered back legs are revealed. First it's hard for him to move but later on he becames extremely skilled and he can easily decapitate his opponent with a slash of his back legs.

He tries to fight Gin but fells through ice. He's still hanging on the edge of the hole in the ice when Weed comes to him. Weed tries to help him but Sniper just wants to kill Weed and tries to pull him under the ice.

Weed's comrades help him and Sniper loses his grip and is washed away by the current. Again he smashes against boulders and initially he drowns.

I wonder why they left this out of the anime. That was a huge plot hole to me, especially coming so late in the story.
