[Trakadon]

~EVENT~

Tires screech as dozens of armored vans pull up to a school located somewhere in the Old Tokyo district. Hunters fallout one by one out of the vans and start to form a perimeter around the school. Then several men dressed in white lab coats step out holding large white tackle boxes.

"Commence the operation~!"

One man yells out and hunters rush into the school. Children can be heard screaming as they are dragged out of their classrooms and even the occasional gun shot can be heard. Presumably to either eliminate an unruly teacher or to force cooperation from the children. As each child was brought out of the school one of the men wearing a lab coat took a syringe from their tackle box and gave the child a shot. And with each shot a child was put into one of the vans until each van was filled to capacity.

"I have a report sir!" One of the hunters addressed one of the doctors with a salute. "One hundred-fifty suspected gang members have been subdued and 4 teachers have been eliminated for resisting."

"Very good", the doctor says with a slight scoff. "Lets get them to the facility at once." Van doors slam as each van speeds off leaving a large amount of hunters behind to secure the school.

As the vans rounded a corner one of the hunters noticed two teenagers wearing the same uniform as the schools. The van came to a screeching halt and two hunters jumped out of the back. "Quickly, grab them!", the driver yelled out. The two hunters grabbed them as a doctor came up holding a syringe in his hand. "Now stop struggling! This wont hurt."

Roland woke up to his phone ringing. and grumbled and pulled the pillow over his head. "Shut up... I don't wanna get up~", he said sleepily. The phone continued to ring and he grumbled once again. Rolling over to his side table, Roland grabbed his phone and answered the call.

"This is Roland..." The chief's voice yelled rang out from the his phone and Roland had to pull the phone away from his ear. "Answer the phone faster damn it!" the chief yelled and screamed through the phone and Roland quickly brought the phone back to his ear after he was done yelling. "Ah sorry about that chief... I was in the shower..."

"Like hell you were! Look we have a major problem! The hunters have put the station under lock down! Its like they initiate Martial law on the whole of Old Tokyo!" Roland sat up on the edge of his bed. "What the hell do you mean?! They'd have to get the government's authorization to do that!"

The chief could be heard sighing over the phone. "No one is allowed to enter or leave the station. There was only a few officers in the station at the time but before the lock down we got a... A report that the hunters were in a school dragging out students." there was silence for a moment as Roland took it all in.

"Chief... Keep everyone there safe..." Roland stood up from his bed and started to grab his clothes. "Hmph. You don't need to tell me that kid. But what are you going to do?"
"Something really stupid..." Roland hung up the phone and started to get dressed.

Roland ran up the stairs to the top floor and grabbed his bandanna from the coffee table and then shook Hayate. "Oi... Get up. Theres trouble so I gotta go. Get to some place safe." He didn't wait for Hayate to respond and headed straight out the front door.

Sho kept his eyes lowered as Avalon spoke to him, the pinkness in his cheeks deepening just a little more. Hearing the question he nodded "It's been two years, four months, twenty two days, one hour, seventeen minutes." he said looking to her "nothings up, I guess I just feel a little tired Avalon sempai." his crystal blue eyes apologetic at what he had done from not paying attention 'I'll let them know later.' he thought as he let out a silent sigh.

He snapped back into reality as he heard Avalon mention that he was bleeding, his eyes going to his sleeve his hand going to protect the one that had been injured, however, he hadn't been quick enough to stop her bringing up her arm and shirt sleeve. "Y-yes, I-I am having problems so harmed myself this morning." he said he was a horrible liar, but he doubted she would remember the fact that he wouldn't touch a knife even to cut food let alone the chances of him actually doing such a thing.

"S-sempai..." he paused not paying attention to her for the moment "D-d-do you hear that?" he said hearing the gunfire something deep inside was telling him to run but he was frozen to the spot in fear "A-and I thought Kenji sempai was scary." he shook a little pulling down his shirt and blazer sleeve. Hearing trucks suddenly screech off he felt as if the atmosphere had changed for the better but it was short lived as he seen one of the trucks hault and two hunter's came out running towards them "R-RUN!" he grabbed Avalon's arm and moved to run they got as far as the corner before the two hunter's caught them thanks to just how heavy his book bag was.

He felt like such a failure because they couldn't get a way though struggled with everything he had trying to get to Avalon to protect her "LET US GO!" he screamed his eyes looking around as to see if someone would help but the whole area was empty. Right then he knew their was no way they could escape so stopped struggling, but seeing the seringe he tried to withdraw away from it but was held fast as the doctor injected him he looked to Avalon his vision darkening "S-sempai... I-I lov-" his eyes where open but he felt like he was looking to what was going on to him from afar.

HAYATE

"Unngh. Wha...what's going--"

He blinked his eyes open. ...Huh? Where'd everyone go...? He sat up and looked around. Safe place...But this is the safest place I know of.

He suddenly realized that he had forgotten to ask Roland yesterday about a change of clothes, and decided that the policeman probably wouldn't mind, as he made his way towards the room. I doubt I'll wreck another shirt. He rummaged through the dresser and pulled out a striped longsleeve. I guess my burned are healed enough that they won't stick to this... he thought, hoping the sleeves could help avert curious glances. The coat was dumped onto the bed sloppily, and a few lighters, a small aerosol spray, and pair of sandals vanished from beneath the bed before Hayate had left the building.

A safe place. Why...unless there's something serious afoot. It's too late to track Roland, but I should still check this out. He stepped outside onto the street, looping a rubber band around his ponytail, and made his way towards the more populated area of Old Tokyo.

[Espy]

KYD

He nearly fell off the tree in shock as he was awoken by gunshots. ...Hunters? I guess this means I gotta haul ass out of here, huh. Grabbing the bag, he swung out of tree and landed on the grass, turning back one to listen to the screaming/ It sounds like fucking kids. The hell's going on?

The fight between curiosity and flight was settled in mere moments. Might as well see what those Hunters are up to.

[Straywolf]

*Bzzzt* Makoto picked up her phone and flipped it open and saw a new message on her phone. Kidnapping Operation has commenced. Tokyo Police Headquarters has been locked down. Any available units please report to the Commanding Officer at the School to assist in securing the campus.

Makoto closed her phone and set her GPS to the School. Interesting. What are we going to do with a bunch of kids? Makoto started up the engine, and drove to the Hunter-occupied school.

[Dawn]

Avalon doesn't say anything listening to Sho mutter about self harming himself, knowing that he was lying. Before she could retort, Sho's attention is else where and the sounds of gun shots and screaming could be heard. Not getting much of a chance to digest what was going on, Sho was screaming to run and had grabbed ahold of her arm, tugging her along. They had only reached the corner when both of them were grabbed from behind.

Struggling against her captor with all the might she could muster, Avalon hears Sho scream at them to let them go before suddenly, he was longer struggling and his eyes... "NOO!" Avalon screams, twisting violently against the person holding her as a man holding a syringe approached her, she tried kicking out at him. But it was no use, she felt the prick of the needle as it punctured her skin..

Something told Chloe to travel by the back alley ways than taking the main way to one of her more favorite internet cafes. Her eyes scan the not too busy streets, making sure no one was following her, thinking it was odd that not many people were out heading to work. Frowning, she pauses at the entryway to one of the alley ways she commonly uses, doing one more sweep with her eyes. Better safe than sorry, as the old saying went before starting down the alleyway. Note to self.. I really need to locate that hover board and fix it.

[Kaguya]

Advent

He hadn't got such sleep during the night the information he had been seeing was more scattered than normal and he felt a disturbance within it "This is seriously not good, something terrible is going to happen." he spoke to himself in a low whisper as he finally sat up going to his father's room he opened the door and walked forward picking up the tray that he had used to serve his father's food the night before. His spare hand going to the alarm clock setting it for about thirty minutes later knowing that's how long it would take him to make the breakfast. With this done we walked out the room to the kitchen to make some breakfast.

He looked to the cooker and pouted "I know you can feel it does it really mean I need to know?" he seemed a little more touchy than normal but shook his head "I'm sorry I didn't sleep well last night." he had started cooking a fry up for his dad and some egg fried rice and chicken for himself as he realized he hadn't eaten anything other that the boiled rice and soya sauce from the cafe before, but then with everything that was going at the moment he was pretty sure he'd forget his head if it wasn't sewed on

Little after eight thirty his eyes opened wide under his bandage as he finished serving up his and his fathers meals putting them at the table with little care right now there was a bigger problem and where he didn't know the full details he knew for a fact if Chloe found out then she was going to run right into a conflict there was no way she would be able to get out of in one piece. Running the phone he dialled the number he had memorised for her "Chloe pick up the fucking phone..." he knew he didn't have long doing this but he knew it would be long enough.

[Dawn]

The annoying jingle of the ringtone of her cell phone made Chloe pause and frown, she hadn't had much time to change the settings of this phone, usually by now the phone would have the latest ringtones. Fishing it out of the pocket of the jean jacket she had thrown on, she flips the cell open to see Advent was calling her. What does he want?
Pushing the button to answer the call, she leans against one of the walls making up the alley, "Morning? Didn't take you as someone to be up this early? Are things okay?"

[Kaguya]

Advent

Let out a silent sigh of relief as he heard Chloe's voice, but hearing her words he frowned a bit "I've been up since before dawn, Chloe. Contrary to popular belief I do have a personal life." he growled a little he really wasn't in the mood for such comments, then again he was already annoyed with her from yesterday's conversation. Hearing the question he closed his eyes "I need to talk to you about something, it's important... and no I can't talk to you about it over the phone." his head moved a little hearing a sound "Good morning father." he called for a moment.

"Can you meet me at south end square by the fountain in the middle in thirty minutes?" his voice had lowered to a whisper, he hung up the phone not waiting for a reply going to the table to eat quietly his father telling him off harshly for not doing his violin practice. He remained quiet nodding "I know father, but it was late I didn't want to disturb you... I'll practice as soon as I get back I have an appointment." he said finally standing taking the plates to the kitchen washing, drying and putting away everything away before running to his messenger back but stopped for a second sighing as he heard the television going on he moved out towards the assigned meeting point.

[Dawn]

"I never said you didn't have a personal life, now did I?" Chloe rolls her eyes knowing Advent wouldn't see it, "Something important?"

Did he find out about the files Makoto stole? I am going to be so fucked up, he's probably going to kick me out of the techs for this. She heard him say something about the south end square by the fountain before the click as he hung up in her ear, I know he just didn't hang up on me. Sighing, she flips the phone shut and looks at her watch, just enough time to grab something along the way to eat.

Pushing off from the wall, Chloe heads back the way she came and enters the small cafe on the corner. Ordering a coffee and a sticky bun, sticky buns would be the death of her yet, she just had a craving for anything that had oozed with cinnamon. Plucking down the money to pay for her order, what she had said to Zaki was true. She wasn't hurting for money and there had never been a time where either her or Avalon went hungry, her mother might have slowly lost her mind over the years after her father had walked out but she had enough sense to open up the trust funds and put everything under Chloe's name even through people thought she was stupid leaving a flat and money in the hands of a thirteen year old.

It had taken years for Chloe to prove to her neighbors and others in the neighborhood she was capable of raising her sister. She still faced problems these days regarding if she was a fit guardian or not, one reason why her Uncle had literally twisted her arm about Jayden moving in..

Grabbing up the takeaway cup and bun as the waitress sits them on the counter, Chloe hurries out of the cafe and makes haste toward the meeting point, stuffing a piece of the still warm bun into her mouth.

[Straywolf]

Several vans drove past Makoto as she approached the Hunter-occupied school. There were Hunters patrolling the school's front entrance and around the campus wall.

Screw this. They probably have enough help. I don't need some officer yelling orders at me. Makoto drove into an alleyway and parked in an empty lot. She popped the trunk open and grabbed the bow and quiver, and detached the scope from her rifle before locking the SUV and climbing onto the roof of an apartment.

Makoto looked into the rifle scope and watched the Hunters secure the school. There were men in lab coats assisting the soldiers and throwing children into vans.

A girl screamed in the distance. Makoto searched for the source with her scope and spotted Avalon being restrained by two Hunters. A doctor came out of the van and injected her with some sort of drug. Heh. Chloe's going to have a bad day.

[Dawn]

Hearing the sound of the alarm in his ear, Jayden swats the alarm clock with his palm and rolls out of bed, groaning. It didn't help he had spent half of the night in the hallway, rubbing his jaw where Chloe had punched him, dammit Chloe. he sighs, deciding to head for a quick shower.
Stretching, he plucks a few clothes up from where he tossed them and heads out of the bedroom toward the bathroom...

[Kaguya]

Advent

Advent continued running towards where he was due to meet Chloe, he knew his board would be the quickest way to travel but with what he was seeing told him that lo-tech was the way to go at the moment which worried him further as he was on a tight schedule as he needed to get back to make lunch in time for his father's medication 'This is going to be a horrible day I can tell this already. he thought to himself but smiled the same way he always had but it faded as he checked the information over again "Fuck!" as soon as he seen that information he really wished he didn't have to be the messenger to Chloe but if he didn't say when he knew she'd never forgive him, hell he'd never forgive him.

Sighing he sat by the fountain enjoying the light spray that came from the water hitting the water in the fountain "Calm, serene but that is always the way before the fun times of the storm." he couldn't help but laugh a little, even though he had a feeling that times where going to be beyond rocky for everyone he couldn't help but seeing it as a puzzle that had to have some sort of solution. Moving his head slowly towards the clock he checked the time and sighed "For all I am enjoying the air I'm on a schedule and she's late." He wasn't mad at her after all it was still kind of early and he believed that there was a good chance that she was still hat her home likely making breakfast.

[NikkoGallarado]

Vincent slowly opened his eyes then quickly stood up feeling something odd in the air this was the first time, he had felt anything like this before running out of his room over to the window with the fire escape. The vampire leap out in one single movement darted for the roof, once on the roof Vincent looked about trying to seek out the feeling that was filling the air make it so heavy. Ducking down, Vincent could feel it was coming from the school, this was not good. Running then jumping reaching out to grab on to pipe drain he moved down the building stop across from a window.

Vincent looked over his shoulder then called out. "Kenji. . .do you feel what I feel lurking about in the air. . . ." he said tilting his head to the side then moving his gaze to the place where the heavy feeling was coming from. "We need to find out what is happening. . . ." leaping from the other building then grabbing on to the window edge opened the window climb up sat on the window edge.

Ashton heard her alarm all over again as she woke up finally, turning over she hit it off then sat up looked around seeing the time then day. "Wait what?! Nuuuuuu I over slept?! But how? Was I really that tired?! Why?!" she yelled staring to scramble out of bed to start getting ready. She was to go and do something that day but it never happened now she had to make it up for this day in hope something good would happen for her sleeping the whole day away.

--

Zaki turned over as he reached out feeling for Chloe he didn't feel the other there. Opening an eye seeing she was not there, he moved around stretched trying to take in what happened the night before and he did smiled some. Once he was more awake he got up headed for the door till he saw a note left for him. Going over to pick it up started to read it, knowing it was from Chloe feeling something was wrong but he knew better then to worry so much over her, Zaki pushed the thoughts aside and trying to let it go. Putting the paper down making his way to the door he opened it, to head out of the bathroom unknown to him that Jay was also coming down the hall at the same time. Opening the door he had hit the other in the face with the door with a heavy thud. Looking behind the door seeing who he had hit. "Oh Jay! I am sorry I didn't know you where up!" he said to him.

[Dawn]

Not having time to react before the door literally smacked him.. right in the face causing pain to shoot up his already injured nose. Groaning, Jayden glares at.. Zaki?
"When did you get here and why are you in Chloe's room?" Jayden's brown eyes narrow at Chloe's fellow tech member as he gingerly feels to see if his nose is swelling any.

Finishing her makeshift 'breakfast', Chloe tosses the cup and napkin into the nearest trash can. She wasn't the type of person who would throw her trash on the ground and with a sigh, flips open her cell phone to check a text or two that she had received from the other members of the faction, mostly asking what the status of the alliance against the Hunters was and if the techs were planning to get involved or not, seems Advent had failed, once again to let these members know he was back..

Arriving at the south end square, Chloe makes her way to where Advent was, crossing her arms over her chest, an impatient look on her face, she did have plans for the day after all, "So what is it that's so important? You make it sound like the whole world of technology is about to crash and burn."

[NikkoGallarado]

Zaki blinked some placed his hand behind head. "I'm really sorry Jay, I didn't know you where coming down the hall. If I did I would have been more careful." he said him then stop pondered some. "Oh I used to stay in her room a lot when we where kids, but then I also told her how I felt and she said she had felt the same so were dating now." he said giving a smile. "It's sudden I know. . .but I needed say something ya know?"
