At 0500 hours the following morning a notification rings through every coms device for every agent.
ROGUE AGENT KAISER launched three attacks last night that took the lives of many of our family, and injured even more.
These attacks have left the right wing of the agency off limits as repairs begin. For the next three weeks agents are to stay with their teams in the assigned civilian housing. All training is to happen in the field or the gun range which is still open on the left wing of the agency.
Agents HELIOS, PHANTOM, WISP, AETHER, and EPSILON are recovering in the temporary medic wing of the civilian area. They are all on mandatory bed rest for the next two and a half weeks, bar agent AETHER who can be released after one week, and HELIOS who will remain a full three.
Head Agent LERISSA is alive, but no other status update to give. She will not be allowed visitors for the time being.
QUESTIONS are to be asked at your senior team leader unless they are out of commission then you may approach SOL or ALISTAIR.
The time for teamwork has never been more important, agents. Do not let this set you back, we will move forward as an agency and as a family.
Kaiser draws a second kunai, his expression blank.
“Very well, if you wish to die then who am I to not grant that wish?”
The two agents run forward.
NOW (PT2)
“Come on! Keep up–don’t let anyone fall behind!”
The sun has fallen just behind the horizon casting long shadows across the ground. The group of agents hurried along the cracks in the pavement guided by the senior agents who arrived on scene with LERISSA as well as the senior who had gone into RIVER BLOCK. Tension is high, every awake agent keeping watch around those who are down. PHANTOM, WISP, EPSILON, HELIOS, and AETHER are being carried on stretchers in the middle of the group. MOON woke during evacuation but has been placed in the middle as well, ECHO and SUN walking beside him to keep him standing.
SEBASTIAN and ROOK stand point, leading the group of agents. JANUS and DELTA were split on either side of the middle section. The seniors make sure to keep the younger agents in line while watching for threats.
The agency comes into view another 20 paces, a ripple of relief flows through the agents. They pick up speed, eager to be within the fence of the agency grounds. A perceived safety after what they have all just gone through.
A startled gasp echoes through the group as the sound of shattering glass, followed by the rumbling of a structure collapsing reaches them. Dust blows past them, the ground shakes. The sounds begin to fade out and as the dust settles SEBASTIAN spots a figure walking towards them from the gates.
He takes a tense stance, stepping forward to put a little distance between the younger agents and the figure. The figure raises on hand, and soon SEBASTIAN is relaxing his stance just slightly. The figure steps into view revealing themselves as ALISTAIR.
The head agent smiles, but it does nothing to ease the worry that falls on the group at his appearance. ALISTAIR has blood splattered along his face and side, one hand holds across his stomach and the other grips his scythe tightly.
“Status report, agent.” is his greeting.
SEBASTIAN explains what the seniors had happened upon when they managed to get out of RIVER BLOCK. IVY stepped forward to assist in the explanation.
[ FLASH BACK ] AN HOUR BEFORE.
Lightning flashes through the safe zone as LERISSA and KAISER clash weapons. The sounds of metal against metal echo around them. The agents are transfixed watching the fight though not many of them can keep up with the speed at which the two older agents fight.
Every second the purple cloud of miasma grows thicker around LERISSA.
SILK and PURESNOW are seen pushing around agents to get a better view. SILK gets held back by one of the senior agents, commands being shouted to forget the supplies. Evacuation is the priority, survival is the priority.
LERISSA and KAISER land across from each other, both are breathing heavy. KAISER runs the white sleeve of his lab coat across his cheek, smearing the blood from the wound. Staining his already red splattered coat more. He smiles.
“Look at you, you can barely stand.”
LERISSA forces herself to straighten from the slumped stance she had. Her eyes are hazy and unfocused, the marks on her skin steadily darkening with every second. Wings have begun to form behind her back. She shakes her head as if trying to shake off the miasma. The battle staff she holds drags along the ground as she turns to face KAISER more, raising it and pointing it at him.
“I don’t care if you kill me, I will not let you touch any of them.”
“Why do you assume I’m here for any of them?”
LERISSA does not respond. She runs forward and the two clash once more. LERISSA blocks and attack from the side with her staff and catches KAISERS fist in her other hand, the two twist as she spins to kick him in the side. He dodges and slashes at her with his other kunai.
The sound of something falling behind her causes the kunai to catch her in the side. KAISER grins as she stumbles, holding onto her to keep her from falling.
“Shh shhh shh my dear, it will be okay. You won’t have to suffer anymore, just give in.” He whispers to her, pushing her hair from her face and smearing blood across her forehead. LERISSA blinks back tears. Pain is clearly seen in her face as her lips form into a grimace. “You wish to see your daughter again, don’t you?”
With his free hand KAISER points to the side of them.
A shape begins to form first as a light silhouette then it darkens and darkens until the form of a young girl stands there. She looks around, confused, before spotting LERISSA. The girl smiles so brightly, her hands raising to wave. She opens her mouth but no sound is heard. LERISSA stares with wide eyes that fill with tears once again and they spill over. A pained whimper leaves the head medic as she slumps more, KAISER holding her steady and forcing her to look at the girl.
“She wants her mother back so badly, Lerissa. She wants you to come join her.”
A red dot appears on the side of KAISERS head but he doesn’t notice.
The girl holds the ends of her skirt and spins around. She appears to be laughing as she waves at LERISSA again. LERISSA raises one hand and waves back, the miasma flickers around her darkening rapidly. The wings on her back grow, taking more of a solid shape. Someone–SILK–screams in the background.
LERISSA reaches her hand for the girl. The world around her is going silent and all she can see is the form of her daughter. She doesn’t see the serum in KAISERS hand, nor does she spot the senior agents as they run in from the border of RIVER BLOCK.
“I’m sorry, baby girl. Mommy is sorry…”
KAISER raises his hand with the serum.
“Say goodbye… Lerissa.”
A bark is heard, distracting KAISER. His head snaps to the side and he sees ROOK standing with a gun pointed at him. The senior agent looks serious, his hold on the gun steady.
“Get your hands off our medic.”
KAISER frowns and drops his hold on LERISSA, the medic dropping to the floor. He holds his hands up and opens his mouth to speak.
A gunshot echoes through the field. The red dot on KAISERS head guides the sniper's bullet and leads back to MIST standing on a vantage point just above the temporary medic tent. She is steady, and the bullet flies true.
A second gunshot sounds from ROOK’s gun.
“YOU WILL ALL REGRET THIS.”
The bullets slam into KAISER, the rogue agent dropping seconds after. When ROOK approaches though it is not the body of KAISER he is looking at but instead a demon. Someone he recognizes from the roster of missing agents. KAISER had used an illusion.
SILK and VOX run forward, SILK dropping beside LERISSA and works fast to tend to her. Two doses of the anti demon serum are given to her, and the agents work together to lift her and bring her back to the rest of the agent. LERISSA is unresponsive but alive.
The seniors from RIVER BLOCK soon begin helping in the evacuation.
[ END FLASHBACK ]
ALISTAIR walks to the stretcher carrying LERISSA. He leans in and brushes her hair from her face before sighing.
“There has been… a problem, follow me.”
The agents all follow the head agent into the safety of MEIA grounds. The grounds leading from the gate to the agency are littered with bodies of the agents who stayed behind, and demons. Civilians are helping those agents who are still alive to move the fallen agents. The mood is somber, the air tense and filled with sadness.
ALISTAIR guides them away from the agency.
But everyone can see the side of the building that has come down. MAYLIN’S figure is seen standing near it with CELEST at her side.
“Sir.. what happened?”
“Kaiser happened. You all thought he was in the field, but he was here.”
The agency’s front windows have been shattered and a portion of the right side was nothing but a pile of rubble. SOL is seen sitting on the top steps of the agency, and JINX appears to be asleep with her head on their lap. SOL is covered in blood and seems angry, but when they spot the agents they smile and wave a little.
“Room has been made in one of the civilian buildings for everyone to rest while we discuss our next plans. Take the injured to the civilian hospital, and everyone just… rest for tonight. Tomorrow the real work begins.”
No room for arguments or questions, the Seniors lead the younger agents where directed. Each team has a room for themselves and are told to stick together.
"YOU'RE STILL TOO WEAK. YOU CAN'T PROTECT THEM ALL.
LERISSA. "
NOW (part1)
The scene at the safe zone is one of chaos.
MIST and REMY work diligently at the local coms tower. They are focused and unable to protect themselves lest they lose their place in the repair. A senior agent who arrived with LERISSA assigns STAR and HARLEQUIN to watch over the two agents on the coms. They are to keep any threats away.
CASTLE and PURESNOW arrive on scene, though in the chaos they are unable to properly check in. CASTLE is asked to go on guard duty over MIST and REMY while PURESNOW is summoned to the med tent to take care of patients there.
At the med tent SILK is working alongside other medics. PURESNOW joined, and soon the med tent is beginning to be packed up. Preparing for evacuation as ordered by LERISSA. VOX, and SENA are placed as guards for the medics so they can work in peace. The two agents positioned themselves around the tent to keep any threats away that they can, as well as making sure the medics do not need anything further assistance.
The ground shakes as demons drop into the area from the southern end. Six tough looking demons with various miasma forms begin to advance on the field. All agents assigned to guard are called to fight, LIGHT and ECHO being the first in the fray and then backed up by their comrades. The demons are a regular variety and not any of Kaisers special demons, thus the fight against them is not as tasking. Agents pairing up to take them on together instead of alone.
IVY takes up the position in the middle of the area at the information table, with SUN at her side. The two of them work in tandem to direct people where they need to go as well as checking to make sure everyone is accounted for. Their unease grows as AETHER and MOON are still unaccounted for.
The ground shakes again, explosions ringing from inside the district where the seniors are. The roars of demons are heard. There is still no word from the seniors. Nor from the agency.
ZER0 from a vantage point is the first to spot the two missing agents. MOON and AETHER cross into the boundary of the safe zone looking rough. ZER0 lands beside them just as MOON collapses, managing to catch him while another agent catches AETHER.
IVY and SUN approach quickly as their twins are laid on spare medic beds. SILK is called over and he checks over the two agents. MOON is told to rest, his body experiencing enhancement exhaustion. AETHER, on the other hand, has more than a few injuries and SILK calls PURESNOW over for assistance as the two medics work to tend to the downed junior agent.
IVY and SUN are told to stay in the med tent and other agents will take over for them.
PHANTOM, EPSILON, and WISP remain unconscious for the time being.
The shaking stops, the sounds of demon fights come to an end.
All agents pause and look to the southern end of the once safe zone where the figure from before had appeared.
LERISSA stands between the figure and the rest of the agents in the safe zone. She holds her weapon in front of her in a defensive position, the metal end of her staff already sparking with electricity. Silence rests between them.
“Isn’t that… Sol?”
“What is head agent sol doing?”
“Are they going to fight??”
LERISSA ignores the chatter she can pick up behind her. She has one goal in mind and that is to defend the young agents from the threat before them.
SOL raises their hands. A slow heavy clap fills the space between them. They smile but something about it is off, twisted. A look that doesn’t match the kind face. It makes LERISSA tense, knees bending just enough to give her more leverage if she would need to move.
"Are you going to fight me, Lerissa? The last time we faced off like this did you not turn and run?" The figure of SOL mocks.
LERISSA does not respond. She drops her left hand behind her back and signals to one of the agents behind her. The call for evacuation has begun.
"Do you really think you can beat me this time, little medic?" Sol says, a pitying smile on their face.
"Why don't you drop the act, Kaiser?"
There is a loud rumbling sound, then a small explosion behind LERISSA though she does not turn. MIST and REMY both exclaim as a crackling sound echoes through the area. Coms devices chiming to life. The agents have done it, communication is back.
On the information table a message dings on the holographic.
[ TARGET CAPTURED. AGENTS DOWN. RETURNING TO BASE. ]
A chuckle sounds from the figure and the face of SOL shimmers away. A handsome man stands where SOL once was, in a clean suit and a white lab coat. The man brushes off his shoulders, then pulls a kunai from hip and spins it around his finger.
"Those eyes of yours have always been able to see through my illusions, Lerissa. This is why I wanted to bring you to my side, to use you to your full potential. You would have been so helpful to my cause, dear." The newly revealed KAISER chuckles once more, taking slow steps towards LERISSA. "But what did you do? You ran away. You gave up every opportunity to grow better than you are."
LERISSA shakes, her grip on her battle staff tightening as she takes a step back from KAISER. She shakes her head and steels herself to keep her stance.
"Are you forgetting what you did to me? I would never join you! Not then, and not now." LERISSA holds her battle staff out to keep space between her and KAISER.
KAISER throws his head back and laughs.
"Oh, do I remember." He continues, his voice a purr but everyone can hear him.
He curves his walk, forming a half circle in front of LERISSA to view the agents behind her. His eyes drift over the defensive stances of SILK, VOX, and SUN. then farther along to MIST and REMY at the coms tower, their protectors STAR, CASTLE, and HARLEQUIN. A smirk forms as he makes eye contact with SENA and it grows when he spots the downed agents, specifically PHANTOM and WISP.
"I remember how you begged me to make your precious daughter stronger." His voice echoes through the field despite not talking very loudly. "I remember you coming to the lab in the night, begging me for something--anything to bring her to a higher level. I remember agreeing to help. She was so weak, and I promised to make her stronger, but you were not happy with the results." KAISER smiles. It's cruel, and cold. A look that promises nothing good.
LERISSA's stance wavers.
"And oh was she in pain, I told you. Lerissa, this wouldn't be pretty. But you told me you didn't care, you wanted your precious girl to be stronger than yourself." He laughs, but the sound is chilling.
LERISSA lowers her battle staff slightly, her expression horrified. The senior agents who had come with her hurried to get the younger agents out of the area as quickly and quietly as they could. KAISER seems to be paying them no mind for now.
He raises the kunai in his hand and runs a finger along the sharp edge, drawing blood. "Tell them what happened, Lerissa."
"No... please..."
"Tell them how she cried for her mommy. How she was in so much pain and you just watched."
"Stop..."
"Tell them how you turned away as she cried."
"Shut up.."
"Tell them how you told me to kill her!"
"Shut up...!"
"You left your daughter in that lab because she wasn't strong enough! Her enhancement wasn't anything like yours and you couldn't stand having an embarrassment for a child! She died because of you!"
"SHUT UP, KAISER!" LERISSA spins on her heels and charges at the rogue agent. Tears stream down her face as she swings her staff. It knocks into his kunai. Kaiser reached around and grabbed her wrist.
He whispers. "You think you can make up for your past mistakes by taking care of all the agents in MEIA but all you are doing is lying to yourself. You and the other head agents are all frauds yet you treat me like I'm the worst thing in existence. Unlike you all, I am not lying to myself."
LERISSA screams, and presses a button on the end of her staff. Electricity sparks around them, and the two agents jump away from each other. KAISER laughs once more, the sound echoing.
"You're insane, Kaiser! All you do is lie! Even now!"
A kunai flies through the air before she can finish speaking. Blood splashes across the ground and LERISSA stumbles through her dodge, a hand going to her shoulder where the kunai cut through.
KAISER's smile has dropped. His expression is blank as he eyes the head medic. There is another kunai in his hand, and this one has a blue tint to the tip of it.
"Still unable to heal yourself, Lerissa? Do you really think you can help save all those agents behind you if you can't even help yourself?"
LERISSA runs forward again, her attack is blocked. KAISER spinning under her battle staff so slice at her side. She side steps, slamming the staff down but missing as he rolls. His kunai catches her calf, making her stumble. The electrified staff catching him on the arm as she swings almost widely. He jumps back, holding his arm but the burnt part of the sleeve is noticeable.
"How do you feel, little medic?"
LERISSA shakes as she pushes herself back up only to collapse back to one knee. The wound on her leg was already turning a deep purple color as black markings ran up her leg.
"You-- you didn't–”
"Oh but I did. I told you, Lerissa. Your ability would be useful to me."
The black markings advance quickly, spreading like vines along her legs and her arms. A band of black forms around her neck. She begins to cough, but a white glow over takes her body and she pushes to stand. Body swaying.
KAISER watches as she struggles to control herself. The miasma of demon poising already beginning to form around her. His eyes are bright with amusement and eagerness to see her turn.
"I won't let you hurt them...." Her voice is weak as she places herself between KAISER and the evacuating agents. A few of the younger ones try to surge forward to help her but the seniors are stopping them. LERISSA half turns. She spots SUN and IVY who had been such a help to her when she arrived. She sees VOX, and LIGHT assisting in carrying the downed agents. She makes eye contact with PURESNOW, then SILK, her two medics still awake and doing so well. She smiles at them, before turning back to KAISER.
"This is as far as you go today, KAISER. "
Kaiser draws a second kunai, his expression blank.
"Very well, if you wish to die then who am I to not grant that wish?"
TEAMS in the agency are important, as the golden rule to survival is to work together. The agency as a whole is one team, and everyone will and has worked together at some point. The official teams are the ones in which you spend more of you time and missions.
Each team is built for specific reasons, and thus that means there isn’t a set number of agents to a team. Demons are normally one to a team, unless a special case has been made.
TEAM RAVEN
a team that focuses on training baby agents. RAVEN is known to be a field based team to train level one agents and their assigned to a senior agent qualified to handle field missions. Two medics are assigned to this team at all time, though they are both not always apart of missions.
( Current members : Sebastian (leader), sun, moon, phantom )
MEDIC(s): epsilon
TEAM FINCH
another baby team with a medic normally leading it. A good team for training and often works closely with team RAVEN during training. This team does not take as many field mission. Two Medics are assigned to this team, though both do not always take part in mission.
( Current members : Delta (leader), harlequin, remy )
MEDIC(s):
TEAM SPARROW
an advanced team with mostly junior or senior agents. SPARROW tackles harder missions in higher level danger. They take on B and sometimes A districts. Two medics are assigned to this team at all times, though they are not both always apart of missions.
( current members : helios (leader), aether, ivy, wisp )
MEDIC(s): silk , epsilon
TEAM FALCON
a balanced team that can handle districts in C and B, team FALCON is considered an all rounded team. This team handles plenty of in house and in field missions that fit to their build. One medic is assigned to this team at all times.
( current members : janus (leader), zer0, castle, mist )
MEDIC: silk
TEAM BLUEJAY
like most teams, this is one built to be fluid the who is apart of it. team BLUEJAY is ever fluctuating to suit the needs or a mission or situation. generally a team to parallel FALCON and work with them during larger missions.
( current members: rook (leader), echo, light )
MEDIC: puresnow
TEAM DOVE
a Junior/Senior team that works as a great support or back up in the field. This higher level team handles missions that are considered more risky, thus they have a senior medic as leader. They work closely with team SPARROW.
( current members : N/A (leader), vox, star, sena )
MEDIC(s): puresnow

After dealing with the small hoard of demons that attacked JANUS and HELIOS during the argument the two seniors had, the team is quick to form a plan of action once more. HELIOS appears to be having issues, but when questioned by SEBASTIAN nothing is found out.
They move out.
Another 100 paces in, there are more demons sightings. JANUS defends LURKER from a demon attack and the seniors are forced to tighten their formation. LURKER and the medics ( DELTA, ASA ) are kept in the center with the other agents forming around them.
HELIOS and DELTA have a private conversation, DELTA hands off a serum to HELIOS under the watchful eyes of the other seniors.
They have been out in the field around two hours when the coms go down but being around each other none of the seniors notice. Their focus on the mission before them. They have no reason to use the coms with each other at this moment. It isn't until ROOK checks his communicator. Realizing nothing is working, he approaches HELIOS. They trade words.
Eventually the other seniors have been notified of the lack of communication devices. No coms? No backup. This leads them to face a difficult choice.
To continue forward or to go back?
Everyone is in agreement that so long as they are able to continue pushing forward they should. This mission would not have been classified as urgent if not for the sheer importance of it. HELIOS makes the final decision and the seniors head out.
"This mission was entrusted with us. We can't let them down."
Another 50 paces up and ASA spots movement ahead of them that isn't common to a demons movement. The seniors are tense. Anything can happen in a zone like this one and they are not letting anything to chance. Get in and get out, that is the goal here and if they can do that in one piece then they've succeeded.
SEBASTIAN attempts to check the map on his coms again but with no luck. They have a general idea of where they are going and need to trust each other.
Four hours has passed since they have entered the RIVER BLOCK district, the building described in the mission log is within site. HELIOS and ROOK both point out movement in the distance. Apparently someone has arrived here before them. The seniors prepare for a fight, as it could be anyone up there but the odds of it being friendly's are low.
Just as they are about to enter the zone of the building, three large demons drops down from about five stories up. Their landing shakes the ground around them and stirs up dirt and dust.
HELIOS, ROOK, and JANUS step forward while SEBASTIAN and SEVEN guard the other portion of their team. The demons show the typical markings and signs of a demon but their miasma is tinted a blue hue that reveals them as Kaiser enhanced demons. HELIOS commands for someone to try and break through the coms lock to send word.
The demons charge forward and the agents move to meet them in battle. Weapons clash. ROOK is fairing well against the demon in the middle. ELMO is at his side providing support and proving to be a great distraction for combo attacks.
JANUS handles the demon on the right as if he was made to fight. This demon is slower in movement but stronger in power and at one point he knocks JANUS off his feet. The sound of gun fire is heard as SEBASTIAN knocks the demons back allowing JANUS to stand again.
DELTA aids ROOK when he is knocked back, her urban spike digging into the demons shoulder and causing it to yell out and yank back. ROOK and ELMO swing around DELTA and down it quickly.
HELIOS and the demon on the left are matching sword slash to claws in a fight of speed. This demon is smaller in size but its speed is a near match to HELIOS. The senior agent takes a hard hit to the face that knocks him over and the demon is following him for another attack. There's a shout, and another sound of gun fire. SEBASTIAN has moved closer to this fight. His rifle held steady in his hands.
"Back off, you ugly fuck!" He fires again when the demon looks up at his shout. It hits true. The demon falls over and HELIOS rolls out of the way to avoid impact. ROOK offers a hand to the downed agent.
The seniors move past their first obstacle with minimal injuries.
The entrance to the building is blocked off and they are forced to find another path. This leads them around to the west side of where some rubble has stacked up and given entry to a second floor window. HELIOS and SEBASTIAN are up first. The enter the building and check the floor before signaling for the others.
LURKER, upon entering, calls for everyone to freeze.
"Something about this feels wrong." She pulls a device from her bag and sets it up. The device beeps once, then again. LURKER suddenly stands up and says they need to leave.
An explosion below them rocks the whole building. Followed by another one. Then another, this one closer. The seniors begin running for an escape just as another explosion rocks through the building and cracks the floor under them. The seniors are too slow, their salvation is just with in reach.
An explosion on this floor knocks them all to different areas. The building begins to shatter under them. Roars of demons echo through the area.
SEVEN and ASA are throw out of the window, and they tumblr down the west side of the building. ASA is knocked unconscious. SEVEN sustains a gash along his left arm. He attempts to wake ASA but no luck. A pulse check confirms she is fine. There are no demons in sight but that can change in a moment. SEVEN scouts out a safe spot to duck down while he waits for his partner to wake.
JANUS and LURKER find themselves dropped to the first floor of the building through a hole in the ceiling. JANUS has one leg trapped under the rubble, an a nasty cut along his forehead. LURKER moves stiffly but appears to have only sustained bruises and small cuts. She begins with checking the area before pulling out another deceive from her pocket. A blue dome whirls to life and surrounds them. She then begins slow work of getting JANUS out of the rubble to administer first aid.
DELTA and ROOK are blasted out a a back wall. They roll down a hill on the backside of the building. ROOK has a gash in his leg. DELTA works fast to tend to the wound. ELMO begins to growl and they notice the demons loitering near by. ROOK hushes the dog, to try and delay the demons hearing them. DELTA works faster. The first demon notices them and charges. DELTA drops the bandages and pulls out her guns. The demons are normal grade and they drop one at a time like flies. ELMO barks to notify them as more demons crest the hill. ROOK forces him self up and the two break for the building to find cover.
SEBASTIAN and HELIOS are dropped into the lowest level of the building. SEBASTIAN is the first up, and he surveys the area. There is a demon chained to the back wall that he puts down without pause. The demon had a briefcase sitting before him. SEBASTIAN spies the Seaside Logo on the top of the case and picks it up. The case is heavy, and has a lock on it. He assumes this was the target. A groan behind him has him reacting for an attack. HELIOS is laying in a growing pool of blood. Faint black marks form along his neck. SEBASTIAN rushes over.
They argue, but in his weakened state HELIOS is not able to fight back as he might have. SEBASTIAN checks the leaders belt for a serum or first aid. He checks around and spies a Serum on the floor near by. He injects it. The reaction is instant, the black marks begin to fade.
There is a rumble above them.
"Well, it seems little maylin has trained you all well."
SEVEN watches as a figure walks calmly into the crumbling area. The figure is dressed nicely in a white lab coat. They swing a kunai knife on the index finger of their right hand, and their left hand is in the pocket of their slacks. The figure is whistling as they walk.
Coms flicker back to life, and SEVEN receives a message. He grabs ASA who has yet to wake yet and moves further into their hiding spot. A distress signal is sent.
"She continues to fight so fruitlessly."
In the building ROOK and DELTA spot the figure as they cross into the building from a window. They walk calmly across the room, passing by the seniors hiding spot.
"Why can't she accept the truth of my words? I have a vision, and it will save us. This is the only way to save us all."
JANUS and LURKER hear the whistling as the figure walks by. Though they can not see who or what is it beyond the rubble they are hiding behind.
All four agents receive a message. A distress signal is sent.
"The world needs what I can offer if she would only accept my hand. I can guide her, and all of you, into a new world. A better world."
There is the sound of something landing near by, SEBASTIAN freezes in shock as he sees the head of SRA and number one rouge agent KAISER standing before him in the basement.
Kaiser smiles at him.
"Hello, Yoomin. Long time no see.”
Above the basement LURKER, JANUS, DELTA, and ROOK have reunited. The sight of Kaiser has everyone in different states of shock. ROOK requests LURKER to locate the other four agents. She does so quickly. SEVEN and ASA are outside but near by, HELIOS and SEBASTIAN are below them.
DELTA points out that they saw Kaiser go that way. ROOK steps up and offers to go check. DELTA and ROOK cautiously approach the hole in the floor. They spot Kaiser just below them, he appears to be talking. ROOK sends a message to SEBASTIAN.
LURKER and JANUS begin slowly making their way out of the building. SEVEN steps out to wave to them. The four agents reunite. ASA has woken up now but she is dizzy.
ROOK and DELTA wait inside to decide the best course of getting the other two agents out of the basement with Kaiser.
"Come on now, give me the case and no one else will get hurt."
SEBASTIAN holds his ground, protecting the case and HELIOS while Kaiser continues to stand across the room.
"Your friend needs help, Yoomin. Don't you want to help him?"
ROOK's message pings to life before SEBASTIAN and he takes a half second to read it. A reply to sent with his whispered words. ROOK, above them, reads over the reply and begins working with DELTA.
"This can all be over if you just say the word."
There is a loud sound above them that has Kaiser looking up just in time for a large rock to come rolling on top of him. The rock slams into the ground where he was standing. Kaisers form flickers before vanishing.
"It was just an illusion?" SEBASTIAN questions as ROOK drops into the hole with a rope. DELTA follows after and she begins first aid on HELIOS. "He wouldn't show up himself, too risky."
HELIOS comes too as they begin moving him. His pain is immense but he pushes through to aid them in getting out. The eight seniors reunite outside the building, three of them worse for wear with wounds that make moving hard. SEBASTIAN takes the reigns as leader with HELIOS being too out of it. They have the target but they are no where near safe yet.
A few days ago we asked for opinions regarding changing the day for activity check and updates. After careful consideration we are going to switch to Monday night around 8pm gmt-5. This will take place starting next week, 220425.
Hopefully this will work well for both the admod team and all our agents. If not, we will open discussion for it once more. But as it stands tonight is the last Tuesday update.
