"Ma'am! We have movement behind the door!"

"Set up at the door! If a Skull comes out of there, shoot it down." Makoto radioed the Skull Headquarters. "What's the situation of the nearby Hunters?"

"We have several squads in the immediate area right now. Other available units are on the rooftops and on the streets, ready to take out any Skull fleeing the area."

The rooftop doors burst open, and Fire Skulls emerged from the building. "Weapons free!" Hunter Squad Onyx opened fire on the escaping Skulls. An explosion from the ground was triggered when some of the Fire Skulls tried exiting through the door Granite Team rigged, killing or injuring whatever was near the door.

"Shit." Makoto radioed the nearby Hunters. "All units! We have runners! We're hunting down Fire Skulls. Take caution, and open fire on all of them!" Multiple gunshots surrounding the building was heard, and several screams of fear echoed throughout the area.

Makoto looked over the side of the roof, and spotted two distinctive figures escaping on the catwalk on the side of the hideout. It's that naive boy again. And that aggressive woman that officer talked to. Without thinking, Makoto descended the fire escape, and jumped onto the catwalk, and began to pursue the two escaping Skulls.

Makoto radioed the Skull Hunter Headquarters one last time. "This is Dal. I'm in pursuit of what seems to be the Fire Skull's leader. One is a red-haired woman with bladed anklets and metal gloves. She's with an injured man who also has red hair. His body is bandaged up. I want these two alive. Notify all units to capture them if possible."

Makoto ran towards the two Fire Skulls, leaving the massacre of Fire Skulls to her comrades.
