As Edge wished for some sleep, Violet got Icarus's message.
"Hold that thought, Edge. It's Icarus, He wants to meet us. He's over at the docks. While Kaz would hate it, it might be our best lead on the Gemstones and possibly weaponizing them against Darkside." He explained to the others as he called his driver.
"...Hey, it's me. Get a limo for 3 to the docks ready...
...No, it's not Violet Girls...
...No, it's not for shopping...
...I don't do that anymore, the taste of leather was starting to kill the mood for me.
...Yes, 15 minutes? Thank you. We got a ride, let's get topside. Second this is over, we'll break until morning." He explained to the others as they went up the Secure Elevator again.

With Ella, Caim, and Devon generally calming the group down, conversation started back up again, beginning with David's request for alcohol. Caim simply held up his glass of whiskey with a smile and said,

"I'm doing fine with this, David. I'll let you know if I want some more or something else. Then again, I wonder what other kind of spirits this realm has devised? I wasn't the heaviest drinker, but it was nice to sip one every once in a while."

Angelus shook her head at David's request, and relaxed her posture, pleased that the party had calmed themselves down, as well as answering for Caim, "I dare say you are correct, Devon. Everyone on the Dawn has made a misstep in one way or another. Some throw ourselves in waves of enemies and get bloodied up, while others simply put their feet in their mouths." She gave David a playful shove in the shoulder and added, "I will try the tea, however. I am curious as to how it's brewed here..."

The Cutie Bruisers, at the sound of David ordering another round of drinks, instantly clamored to the offer of a pre-paid drink,
"I wanna try the berry blast fruit blend?"
[color=15650D]"Oo, the pineapple sunrise sounds nice! Wait, what does virgin mean? Is that important? Devon, Ella? Someone?"[/color]
Ton Ton looked a bit befuddled by the designation, seeing that he never really cared to learn about alcohols. Sure, he could drink them without any bad side effects, but that didn't mean the Tonberry didn't have an intimate knowledge of the stuff.

Teri, on the other hand, did have a liking for alcohol, and was willing to try something new, such as: [color=0E59E4]"I'll try this Fuuki Plum wine thing, David.

And Jenny, funnily enough, the Japanese word for Chocolate is チョコレト。[footnote]Pronunciation: Cho-ko-re-to[/footnote] It sounds just like the English version. It's a loan word, like the word for bread, パン[footnote]Pronunciation: Pan[/footnote]　is from the Portuguese word for bread. But the waiters have understood us fairly easily, I think... Oh, the desert section is right there on the menu. I can see ケーキ[footnote]Pronunciation: Ke-ki[/footnote], or cake,　and チョコレト right there..."[/color]

After the quick cultural note, Teri answered back to Ella, the small smile on account of being able to pull off the lesson, [color=0E59E4]"Oh, I never knew... Poor Devon. I bet it feels worse from not being able to fix that bond at all. Has she said anything else to you about it?

I can kinda understand the situation though, if only a little. I was estranged from my elder sister even before going to college. Aside from that, I had a relatively happy family. Lots of stepsiblings on account of my parents' marriage, so I was the youngest of a total of eight. It still feels weird being the eldest out of me, Mel and Sadei, when it used to be ME that was the youngest, you know?"[/color]

 

[Kalastryn]

Looking to the red spot on David's forehead, Kala couldn't help but chuckle. In response to the drinks however, She was happy though serious in saying "David you really are far too kind. I'm sure you'd like to get to sleep tonight without the realization that you've emptied your pockets. After all, paying for all of our meals and our drinks... I'm sure your not that rich to have no dent in your pockets after it. I'll pay for my own drink if that's alright?" She said, primarily because she's not one to take generosity for granted... secondarily because she didn't want the only thing she spent anything on tonight to be bribing someone to give her friend cheap fish.
Albeit for a good reason, she wasn't exactly proud of bribing people.

She flipped through the menu and ordered a "Blue Glow-tini" [http://www.disneyfoodblog.com/2010/06/17/blue-glow-tini/]

Merlin gave a nod to Violet and Edge, rest would be something he would welcome with open arms. World travel isn't something you should stay up after using, since it both requires much magic and energy, luckily enough Merlin had enough at the moment. When the lockdown was undone and the group began to go back to the elevator, Merlin had closed the Gem lockbox, yet in his small alchemist satchel located on the back of his pants, a glue gem was contained.

Spoiler: Gem

Well this was for the better good so that Merlin may study it later, it may even contain some more power to learn. Going up the elevator wit the other two, Merlin would follow them to meet this other person they know. Yet Merlin gave Violet a weird look as he was on the phone, but was it the subject or the phone that made him look like that.

Wanderer, Jenny, David, Devon, Kalastyrn and (Insert others).

When David came back to offer drinks, over on the table where David and Wanderer sat were a small pile of empty bottles on the Doctor's side. It had seem he drinked quite a bit, and even beyond that were three empty bowels stacked on top one another. While all of this was in front of him, Wanderer was finishing off his fourth bowl of Katsudon, barely stopping for a few seconds to look at David with a stuffed face.

Slamming in chest to swallow the food, Wanderer finally opened his mouth to talk. "Uh, no thank you, I already had my fair share here. Good thing I can't get drunk otherwise tomorrow would suck butt ... and sorry for the mess, this food is ... well, just great. I mean I haven't tried other culture food except from the quick noodles on the ship." Wanderer said and ate the last bits of his meal before finally laying the chopsticks on the four bowel stack.

Kurumu stared at Darren. She was confused, very deeply confused. "Real? What do you mean?" She pressed her hand against Darren's bloody gloves and peeled his fingers off of her shoulders. There was a look of concern in her eyes, "Darren, are you alright?" She put her hand on his forehead. She recoiled a bit, "Darren! You're burning up! What's wrong!?" She glanced over Darren's shoulder at the terrible mess of the room and closed her eyes, giving the situation some deep thought, "...Real. Where do you think you are Darren!?" What was concern in her eyes were not stricken with a mixture of fear and foreboding.

Deadshot | Cz | Lucieon

"Whichever one seems reasonable to you!" Cz yelled over the noise of combat.

Lucieon puled harshly at the ice on his feet and broke the bindings into fragments that dotted the air in glittering dust. Yellow light caught the ice shards and filled the room with a host of light, blinding Lucieon momentarily. As Deadshot predicted, Lucieon let the magic missiles out of their bindings above him... but little did he expect them to curve in mid air toward him, bypassing his excuse for "cover."

Lucioen drew his catalyst from behind him and brandished the staff in both hands, it's crushing weight nearly staggering his human form. Her took a step forward, swung the hammer-staff in a full circle about his head and tried to bring it down in the general direction of Deadshot. Oil spilled from behind him, and liquid flame scorched the room, obscuring the ice-light with the hearty glow of hellfire.

"I am in no mood for games!"

"Good." Edge said, waiting on the lift with the others. "Good to know he's alright. Although...how did he get your phone number? Never mind, it's not important." Edge quickly changed the topic. "Funny question for you guys; who is the most powerful being you've ever encountered?"

Merlin | Edge | Violet | Icarus.

Time: Night.

As Merlin made his way to the Elevator, he was grabbed by the wrist from behind before being shoved into the wall.
Before he could process what was happening, he was subject to a TSA style pat-down by the two soldiers, giving him a full search before pulling out the gem he tried to steal.
"Mr. Mishima has us down here 24/7, year round. Don't push your luck." He grumbled at the Wizard before pulling him off the wall and pushing in towards the Elevator.
"MERLIN! Are you trying to get me fired?! Man, Do you have an idea what Kaz would have done if you pulled that off!?" Violet got nearly violent (WORDPLAY!) before the trio went back up to the lobby.
"Man...You could have gotten yourself killed, you've seen how trigger happy Kazuya can be when he needs to." He explained as he paced though the front office, the one part of G-corp that they have seen that actually lived up to the name instead of the army.
When they left the lobby, it was then they saw a Middle Eastern man holding a sign labelled "Pink Girly Man" standing next to a White limo.
"Ahhh Mohammed, wasn't it?"
"And I see you have taken a break from romancing every animal in zoo and started abusing generosity of your Boss. Great!" Just get the damn Car."
"...Umm, it's actually a-"
"Just get in, Head-Dick! I didn't move here from driving cabs in Las Venturas to hear the shit that comes out of your mouth."
With the formalities out of the way, they all got in and were making their way towards the docks.

Time: Night.

Atfer Merlin was searched by the two men and pushed into the elevator, he gave a mean look back to the two. His hand already above his head was covered in fired, this seemed like just a minor fire spell but seeing who is in control of it, who knows what can happen. Yet before he could light anything on fire, the doors closed in amazed timing. "Loud-mouthed barbarians!If they had done that in Camelot they would be in chains by now." Merlin huffed.

Turning to Violet, a outburst of words came flowing from his mouth. While doing this Merlin turned a little bit and re-enacted Violet's mouth with his hands, just like what a little kid would do. "Can't blame me for giving it a chance ... Sir Kazuya doesn't seem to linger on the good side of life." Merlin said as the replica of his Excalibur faded away into bright particles in the air. "You need to change allegiances. We should have been glad I didn't explode ... anything! That is." Merlin said loudly once more before they got off at the front office.

Meeting the driver, Merlin offered a quick bow and a "Good day" before getting into the grounded metal carriage. This quickly got rid of the topic of stolen gems and made him interested in the comfy seats.

"Guys, It's Yen. 50 Euro to me is like worth 7000 here. Besides, Company card, remember?" David pointed out as he handed his card to the waiter and let the orders flow in.
"As for spirits, I think it's more of the same from our one. Just try not to drink the salad bar this time." He jabbed, remembering when Caim went on a rampage and began drinking shots of dip and sauces.
Moving on to Wanderer, he then said "Don't worry about it, just keep the thermonuclear weapons in your pants and all will be good."
He then realized that was an actual collection of words he had said to another human(?).

Jenny meanwhile was steadily downing her wine bottle as Teri attempted to explain Japanese to her, or at least enough to get a dessert out of the menu.
"I'll admit, I never understood why they are so big on Japanese up there, Hell, they all speak English anyway." She slurred slightly as she slowly swirled her glass in her hand.

Location: Tokyo | The Docks.
Time: Night.

The group soon arrived at the Docks Icarus appeared above them standing on a steel girder.
"Good good, now then you never saw me, we need not introduce ourselves."
"Icarus we know it;s you."
"dammit, well fine but I am holding true to his tenants he wont see me nor have I set foot, as since I have not touched the ground I have merely been levitating. anyways The moon is full, which means my Informant can aid us."
He held out the jeweled scepter and he became shrouded in black smoke, As they looked they could make out piercing green eyes. a low menacing laugh could be heard.
"Ah yes this may not be freedom but it shall do for now, these crystal you have, the energy emitted by them are a natural energy known as Ki some may also call it chakra, it exists within the body, This mutant Darkside was able to absorb the heavy energy from the crystal through the girl, You could absorb the crystals energy and use it but if your not experienced with using it, I'd say you would only have 5 minutes before the excessive Ki usage was too much for your body.
Now then your biggest challenge would be tracking him down, However the cyrstals could be used as effective bait, as could the girl-
"we are NOT using Serena as bait, Besides now that we know that we can prepare our own trap." he put the scepter in a sealed sheath tightening the lid.
"Me and Serena are doing everything we can to turn the table in our favor. If anyone needs me I'll be on a plane to reach South America contact me when and where you want to ambush Darkside." the smoke had fully dissipated by now and Icaurs jumped far and landed onto a boat he waved
"tell Kazuya if you want but he doesn't need to know I'm sneaking around in his city might make him more paranoid."

Merlin | Edge | Violet | Icarus.
Location: Tokyo | The Docks.
Time: Night.

When the Taxi arrived in true rushing fashion, Merlin was mostly intrigued with the nice leather seats and the window, allowing the breeze to sweep across his face with a happy smile. When the group came to the docks their target was standing cockily on top of a steel girder. Someone other then Merlin confirmed the identity, and Merlin's eyes shot up in intrigue and determination, he needed information about the legend sword of his world.

Yet all that came from icarus' lips were dumb words, making everything hurry up as if he had no time to attend to them and their queries. Merlin's usually happy self was reduced to a teeth-grinding frown. The target began to spurt nonsense that the legendary Wizard did not care for, but when his "Informant" began to speak about Ki. "Natural magic. More attuned to human nature rather then nature itself." Merlin whispered to himself under his own breath, remembering the feeling of natural magic that he had felt before from Edge and the gem.

Next thing, Icarus dismiss the fog and talked about another name, more womanly and feminine. About to open his mouth, the more target like person to Merlin escaped all the suddenly, not allowing any members of his party to talk. Seeing what he had escaped in, it was certainly a mechanical boat to Merlin. Yet just the ignorant, rushed and bad-mannered personality of Icarus sent Merlin into a rage, especially since he obtained no information regarding Excalibur.

Merlin's eyes lit up in a blue blaze, and as if he levitated off the ground he began to glide, sliding along the air like skates. Coming to the edge of the dock, Merlin stopped. If Icarus looked behind he would see two blue piercing eyes surrounded by electricity. Merlin himself gave a annoyed scream, and a burst of magic gave the sparks of electricity around him. "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH ... Tell me about Excalibur!"

Time: Night.

"...Hey! WAIT! SOUTH AMERICA IS MASSIVE! WHERE THE HELL DO WE MEET!?" HEY! COME BACK! COME BACK!.....Argggg...He ain't coming back..." Violet groaned as Icarus left them without so much as a an address to meet them at.
"Urg, Well...Guess I'll send word to our contacts there. Wish he would have at least let us say something first, Could have been of some help." He sighed as he began to walk back to the limo.
"He take on 1 look at girly man there and he saw everything he needed to know. How get in, I need to get to the airport to pick up some tourists, this day is getting dangerously close to me not getting any pussy!" The vulgar Driver said as he honked the horn repeatedly.

All the while, they were being watched.

Well...What did he say?

Watching from the rooftop, Hiryu pulled out his tablet and wrote down "They want to set a trap for him in South America. He also mentioned something about a girl named Serena. It might the be one that appeared when we first met Darkside."
His handler sent back:

Good, now I have a possible bargaining chip. Good work, I'll admit, you ninja types get stuff done. Now, slow him down then report for Evac. Don't Fail me.

Sighing at his orders, he watched as Icarus began to leave on a boat before rooting though his gadget belt for something.

All the while Icarus watched the city skyline, the G-corp building towering over all else, yet another aspect of the city Kazuya had dominated.
As he was watching the city drift away from him, he saw a strange metal bird in the sky above him, holding something in his talon's as it let out several robotic squawks.
It dropped what it was holding before it began floating down on a little parachute in front of the boats path.
As the boat went under its path, Icarus realized just what it really was.
A large explosion rocked the front half of the ship, clearly visible from shore, as Hiryu began making his way out of the city.

Merlin | Edge | Violet | Icarus.
Location: Tokyo | The Docks.
Time: Night.

Edge stood in silence with his arms crossed. Icarus had made up his mind, apparently. It was a pity, but Edge had been expecting it. Words spat out in contempt tended to leave a more lasting impression than a hand reached out in sympathy. Still, it would have been nice to have some idea what they were up against, what this "Darkside" thing was, maybe even where Icarus came from, but this lousy fucking day just had to keep getting worse and worse. Now, no matter what they did, they were still going in blind. And worst of all, they were being watched.

Edge only barely saw him, and just as they were pulling up. He was perched on top of a warehouse some ways away, but that bright red scarf might as well have been a giant neon [color=FF003F]FUCK YOU[/color] sign. Still, giving any indication that they had been seen would be a bad idea, and Edge knew that. So he watched, and listened, in silence. Fuming.

Something was going on, something Edge didn't like. Darkside had come out of a natural portal, the sort of thing that only happened once every couple hundred years. And both Icarus and this other person had both known he was going to be here before hand. That's not to mention that Icarus had a weapon from another universe entirely, and one that he apparently, according to the rules of that universe, could not possibly posses. Edge could only think of one explanation for all of these things.

The Greydall Empire.

He would have to tell Kazuya as soon as he got back, even if he was interrupting his meditation. Any time to prepare was vital, and if they could make the first move, that would be even better.

So he stayed quiet as Merlin and Kazuya shouted at the boat. He needed to think. Only a handful of people had more experience fighting Greydall than he did, but it was still going to be incredibly-

And then Edge happened to glance to the sky, and saw the bird. Carrying a bomb.

"Merlin, if you have any healing spells, get them ready." Edge said before running to the edge pier. "VIOLET! CALL AN AMBULENCE!"

Edge jumped off of the pier and hit the water running, just as the bomb went off. Lucky for him, he had enough strength in his body to use Swiftness, even if it burned every muscle in his body. It took him about a minute to get to what was left of the boat, where he found Icarus floating on a piece of debris, blood pooling around him. Edge let himself fall into the water, swimming the rest of the way.

"Don't worry, kid." Edge said, trying to heal Icarus with what little strength he had left. "I've got you. You're gonna be fine."

This lousy fucking day just kept getting worse and worse.

Merlin | Edge | Violet | Icarus.

Time: Night.

Yelling at the escaping Icarus unleashed the inner-feelings of Merlin, all those moments that people used wrong powers and moments that usually involved himself, Excalibur and Altria Pendragon, his Lord and oldest friend. Hearing the warning of Edge, the explosion happened as Merlin still looked upon the boat, eyes opening wide while seeing the destruction. This was the power that this current modern world had.

It indeed worried him, especially with the current people he had met and heard about the world. It seemed to him that this world was just filled with evil and darkness. Finally having his mind come back, he heard the order of Edge and nodded as he focused more onto the burning boat in front of him. Sure, Merlin hates bad people, but he doesn't want anyone to die either ... too many people have died in his life.

"I shall."

Was all Merlin said before pulling out his little infinite magical book. With a simple wave of his hand, the pages began to pass by the thousands within ten seconds. Then it had came to the sections which were in another language but it was symbolized as a flower. A determined smile swept upon Merlin's face, his hand now gently moved towards the ground and another magical circle appeared with electricity, yet this one was green, it smelt of fresh air and it floated in the air.

"DONE!" He yelled out, he knew this was a simple healing circle, and to do better healing it would require real ingredients and more complex runes on the circle.

Darren | Kyre | Kurumu

"I don't even know any more." was Darren's answer as he began to chuckle slightly, it was one of those moments where all you really could do was laugh at the madness of it all.

"...You really want to know what's the matter with me? So basically...I'm immortal and I can't die, which is a problem to me because I REALLY want to. I mean, my mere existence as an Author is bringing countless deaths in places I can't even begin to think of and after everything that happened, I for one don't want to deal with this insane shit anymore. So I tried to find Red Mage, who's over there decapitated, to try and finish what he started. Then I ran into Titania, think that's her name, and we made a deal: She wants you dead for some reason, possibly breast-related, and I offered to do that. Then I ended up in a Library, talked to some Asian guy (Puce), found my way here and then killed Chaos Space Marine Stripper there. BUT! She said this was a simulation so I have no idea if any of this is real or not and all I have to show for everything is that crazy ***** most likely laughing at me!"

He began to try and compose himself after that massive rant, clearly he needed it.
"...Hell, part of me realized from the get do you'd kick my ass if I so much as looked at you funny so what's the point anymore? So now, all I want to do is get out of here and go back to Everest. Things are simpler there, cold, but when you die a few times from it, it doesn't really affect you anymore.

"Fair enough Boss, but I'm expecting some currency!" Deadshot said as he watched the missiles curve back towards him.
"OH SHI-OOOOOOOF!" He said as he attempted to leap out of the way, though he was blasted towards one of the walls as Lucieon began to light the place on fire.
"I am in no mood for games!"
"Really? [sub]urg[/sub] I couldn't tell..." He said as he began to pick himself up, only to manually set the fire on his gun.
"[sub]if this doesn't work, nothing will[/sub]." He stated before he rolled on his back and shot a projectile right in-between Lucieon's legs.

"Tazer, *****!" The assassin then mocked before a high voltage of current began to enter the Merchant's body, his hand on the dial in case he needed more juice.
And if he had enough to down a dragon[footnote]Yeah, he managed to tazer Angelus in her dragon form once. Granted, it was a bit of an ass-pull but still[/footnote], he had enough to take this guy down.

"...It's...Complicated..." Rugal merely said, not really having an answer to Garm's statement.
"I mean, before what happened, I had perfect control, I think it might be this realm or this...Nyarlathotep that had that effect on me. Though I will be more open in the future, just...It's hard to admit that for all I have done, I...haven't really changed..." He sighed as he threw out the trash down the chute.
"It's good you are around, really, I mean that. I...just wish that I could just competely "Disconnect" from my past and move on. But always something keeps dragging me back. That business with Deadshot, the Viral Bombs, those weapons, just one thing after another...and the worst part is, I still don't know what became of my former employee's. Having them running around our world, I mean, no doubt Kazuya is hunting them down, but still...They can be dangerous if left to their own devices."

Icarus was unconscious, blood spilled from a laceration on his leg, Edge might have noticed what looked like black feathers, the half angel had attempted to use his wings as a shield, the wings had only reduced the energy bast, enough to make the blast non lethal.
AT the moment the shock-wave had rendered him unconscious. The blood had another problem there were a few sharks off the coast and they could smell a wounded meal.
He groaned as edge got hom out of the water, the healing spells fixed a bit. the bleed was severe though and Icarus was now a ghostly white but at east he was no longer bleeding.
Icarus wasn't dead his hadn't stopped yet but it was faint.

Violet needless to say was surprised by the fact that the boat Icarus was on exploded.
"OH COME ON!?" He whined as he went to call 911 to call for medical attention.
He paused for a moment as Kazuya would most likely find out about Icarus still being in the city, but that was quickly pushed aside as he saw the other people on that boat.
"Hello! This is Dr. Violet of G-corp, A boat has exploded in the bay, Get the Coast Guard, EMTs, Send everything, NOW!" He barked into the phone as Edge fished the angel out of the water.
"Ahhhhh, Shhh-Shoot! God, Jus-....Keep him stable, I mean, I'm a Doctor, but...not that kind." He stammered, after the events of the day, between the Lockdown, Torgue's pizza and now this, Violet was most likely not going to leave the safety of the G-corp building any time soon.
Distant Sirens of Ambulances and other emergency services began to near as they went to the scene of the disaster.

Edge dragged himself, and Icarus with him, out of the water, and back onto the pier. Icarus seemed to be...well enough, although he was still unconscious. If nothing else he wasn't bleeding anymore. Not feeling like he was dying anymore was a bonus, as far as Edge was concerned.

"That..." Edge said. "That fucking ninja..." Edge stood up and pointed to where the red-scarfed ninja had been. "HE DID THIS! I SAW THE HEATHEN FUCK! HE WAS RIGHT FUCKING THERE!"

"Edge..." Violet said softly. "You need to-"

"DO NOT TELL ME TO CALM DOWN!!" Edge shouted, turning on Violet. "DO YOU KNOW HOW SHIT MY DAY HAS BEEN? MY BEST FRIEND IS DEAD! I THINK I HAVE COMPOSED MYSELF VERY WELL, CONSIDERING-"

"NO!" Violet shouted back. "YOU ARE NOT THE ONLY PERSON HAVING A BAD DAY! SO SUCK IT UP!"

Several minutes passed. The only sounds in the air were Icarus's heavy breathing and the sounds of sirens far off. "Sir Edge?" Merlin eventually said. "I can see several other people stranded out at sea. Your strength might put to better use rescuing them."

Edge sighed, and nodded. "Yeah." he said quietly. "You're right." Edge looked out to the sea, and ran back out to save the rest of the people on the boat, just as the ambulance pulled up to the dock.
