"Uh... Maka Albarn." she said at his request for a name. Sighing in relief as they all lower their weapons. "Well, I can't quite say this is par for the course in my book. I guess I'm used to what you'd call out of the ordinary." She says as she followed him into the chopper. She wasn't about to start a fight. It wasn't her job. Though very discreetly as she climbed in, she focused her soul sight to take a quick peek at them. They looked very much like your average Joe who just had a job to do. On second glance, without Soul Sight, it looks like they do this a lot... and aren't too fond of the idea of taking their fingers off the trigger so quickly. Alright then... just don't piss them off. Slightly relieved at the thought, she took a seat and shut up for the ride to wherever.

Location: Toyko Skyline, Tokyo, Japan
Time: Evening
"Ordinary? Nothing is ordinary anymore..." The Soldier said as they began to take off, making their way towards one of the larger buildings in the city, a few minutes flight was all it took.

Location: G-Corp Building; Rooftop Helipad
Time: Evening
As Maka's helicopter came in, Kazuya had just received a report on how Black Industries had responded to his attack.
[color=9F2B68]"...We....Only took him offline...for a week?..."[/color]
"And he's planning on making sure we can-"
[color=9F2B68]"I KNOW WHAT THIS FUCKING MEANS YOU GODDAMN IMBECILE! Crack that security and prep for another raid. He thinks he's rich enough that his shit doesn't stink?! Oh no, I can play the long game just as hard as he can and unlike him, My funds won't run out!"[/color] He shouted before Maka was brought in by the soilders, Violet noticing her before Kazuya did.
"Sir, newcomer just phased i-"
[color=9F2B68]"Oh God Fucking Dammit, AGAIN!?....Urrggggg...Welcome to G-corp, I'm Kazuya Mishima, please bother that man instead. Goodbye!"[/color] Kazuya rather bluntly said as he pointed to Violet whom seemed rather embarrassed about the situation.
"...He's been having a hard day, Sorry. Umm, Dr. Violet. And you are?"

"Maka Albarn. Just so your aware, I sincerely hope your nothing like the only "Doctors" I've ever met before you. I'm not even going to try to explain that statement." she said, in a sort of blank politeness you'd probably only understand if you had met those doctors. "So... I take it that guy runs this place? He looks pretty pissed."

"...Pissed is an understatement. Ummm, how about we go to my lab?" Violet said as he motioned Maka and the others off the Helipad and back into his lab, thankful that the bombing raid was over.
Granted, he had made weapons before, but the amount of damage Kazuya just caused didn't sit well with him.
"Sorry about the mess, we had a bit of an "Operation" going on over here. Umm, Can I get you anything? Something to eat? Drink? Anything?" He asked the newcomer in a vain attempt to get his normally cheery mood back, but it was hard going.

Upon seeing the mess around the room and hearing the mention of "operations..." "Uh... that'd be a no on the food and drink. I'll pass. Figure we could talk about what's got him so bent out of shape? I understand having a creepy or angry boss. Hell, I worked for Death himself where I came from. Wasn't a bad job actually, met my best friend doing it. Anyway... you don't look too happy at the moment either." She said, pretty much ignoring the "dropped bomb" of working for the Grim Reaper. Though she didn't exactly expect him to ignore it.

"...You used to work fo-....urgggg..." Violet groaned as he processed the weirdness that just came into his life in the past 5 minutes.
"...Just...tired of so much crazy stuff happening...you know?...Hell, just a few days ago, there was a massive roided up madman in here and blew up the top 10 floors of this building. Now Kazuya is going domestic bombing, you're friends with the grim reaper and-...I just wanted to make robots..." He sighed as he slumped down in one of the chairs the madness started to get to him.
"...Sorry, just you've kinda came at a mad time. It's not norm-...Oh who am I kidding, it's always like this...So...How'd you get here then?" He then asked as kicked his office chair over to one of the Cryo Pods in the center of the room and pulled out a West Coast Cooler, though at this point, he was considering drinking something much harder.

Seeing the frustration Violet was going through she apologized for the sudden drop of information with. "Well... I'm sorry for just dropping that information on you out of nowhere. I guess I have a long list of things to explain before I just tell you how I wound up here." She said as she took a seat on a spare chair. "Well for one, me and the Grim Reaper aren't exactly friends, so much as I work for the guy. You see, where I come from, Death happens to everyone, as I assume it does here. Witches on the other hand, are actively sought out constantly to die. He hates them a lot. Terrorizing people who don't deserve it and all that kinda pisses him off. she says taking a breather before explaining the next bit. "There was one witch in particular, Arachne, who always seemed one or two steps out of reach at all times. It was only when he nearly caught her that he discovered a project of hers that reshaped the way everything works. Apparently she figured herself a soul collector too, though in particular, she collected the souls of fellow witches. The project in question was apparently infusing them into weapons." She explained.

"I'm getting to a point here... eventually...

"Even then she managed to escape, but that project of hers revolutionized the weaponry that we started using. Essentially, she had given weapons souls, and therefore they became sentient, living, and even able to change between a human form and the weapons they came from. Without the knowledge of a lot of people, a lot of them decided to live ordinary lives... start families. Which was somehow possible. Fast forward about a generation or two, and Death had a problem with them. You see... these weapons, could collect souls like he could. Only thing is, they could absorb them, and actually get more powerful.

"Where many people saw a problem and a threat, it was quick to be turned into opportunity. You see, one... thing, in particular... an extremely powerful demon called a Kishin, required the Grim reaper to seal it, unable to kill it. In order to do that, and ensure it would hold, he had to bind himself to the area. He eventually formed a sort of academy. The skills learned? Well, that's where I worked/learned as a student. Essentially, he needed something or someone to protect the world from things like the Kishin.

He discovered that Kishin are formed from the souls of people so evil that they are just irredeemable. So to prevent any more of them from popping up, he started empowering human beings with the ability to see the properties of one's soul, and started pairing them with Arachne's living weapons. The idea, which I might mention has worked for quite some time, is that the wielders can see the properties of a person's soul, and whether or not they are evil enough to threaten turning into one of said demons from before. Then, the duo would swoop in and take them out, the weapons then absorbing their soul, thus neutralizing the transformation."


She then gave a minute for the information to sink in.

"The reward for doing this well enough goes mostly for the weapon. Essentially, those wielders aren't just the Grim Reaper's Hitmen, but his craftsmen. When the weapon they use is infused with 99 souls of those verging on transforming into a Kishin, and then the soul of one Witch, it becomes proven and powerful enough for the Grim Reaper himself to award them a place in his own personal arsenal."

After rambling on for a long time about that huge history lesson...

"As for how I got here? Well, I am one such wielder. And when I had found a Witch and picked a fight.... Something she did sent me here, separated from my weapon." she said. Most of it truth, but she didn't really want to drop the other bomb on him and start showing him what exactly she was fighting with.

Time: Early Morning
Boss scratched his head. "I feel like I've missed something. Have I missed something?"

"Teleportation technology is extremely dangerous." Edge said. "I've heard of entire societies being destroyed by it in the past. That may explain why you've had so many people from different worlds dropping in, lately."

"Although the tech your guy is using may not be the same kind that we're used to." Boss said. "In which case we're going to be about as helpful and objective as a Truther."

Edge turned around and looked at Boss. "How-"

"Because not only do we not know what we're talking about, but what we think we know is fundamentally and demonstrably wrong."

Edge sighed. "Fine. I'll give you that."

"Maybe you should find out how he developed it." Boss said. "The first thing I would want to know if someone had tech of that level is where exactly they got it. Did they just stumble across it in house, or did someone give it to them?"

"We know someone who could help you analyze the tech." Edge said. "But getting him here may be...difficult."

"'cause he lives in another world." Boss said. "And also on Jupiter."

"...That's easily the craziest thing I've heard in weeks." Violet answered as Maka explained the rules of her own realm, it seemed like everyone's world was different.
"Well, hopefully I should be able to track down your home realm and get you back. Admittedly, it might a while what with Kazuya's "Operations" hogging the teleporter..." He sighed at eh took a drink of his Cooler while Boss and Edge went on about Ken's teleporter Tech.
"Nah, Kazuya wouldn't care how he got it. All he cares about is bringing the guy in, but so long as he is making a profit off them, he'll be able to buy his way out of any possible arrests."

[color=6c1504]M. Bison Congressman Vincent Vega[/color] | Bruiser | Fulgore! | Incognito Mr. Presidentito.
Location: Outside the GOP fundraiser
Time: Night
Looking upon Fulgore, The President realized that the machine was indeed something more than your regular robot. "This thing ... is not giving us a break." He said in his pretend smooth voice, trying his hardest to keep the cockeny and his natural voice out. Sitting down with a soft thump, to the inhabitants of the limo all his was is a random stranger who decided to protest with human waste at the GOP. Yet, knowing his role to get out of this alive, The President stood up with a sigh.

The strange skull figure slowly pulled out the tiniest gun-lookalike object from his pants. "As much as this sucks for the environment ... I may as use it." He said with leaning out of the window and started to aim at the running robot. "Take this you metal git!" The normal cockney voice came out as the gun fired, yet this was no ordinary gun. The shot fired loudly toward the machine, yet The masked President was shot back into the limo as well.

"Well, glad to see we have different backgrounds for the word "crazy." That's really not every detail, but I think that's enough information to process for now." Maka said, chuckling

"and yeah, getting home would be great when we have the chance."

She then turned to Boss and Edge.

"Huh, didn't notice you before you spoke up. Name's Maka. You would be?" While still listening for the answer to introductions, she turned back to Violet and asked. "Also... what exactly is it you do around here?"

"Well, Again, it might be a few months before I can use the data from your teleport to track your home realm, providing someone doesn't try to blow up my lab again. Still, could be worse...I guess..." Violet added as Maka introduced herself to Boss and Edge.
"Still, until then, we could show you around the city, play the part of the tourist. If nothing, it'll help get you settled, hm?" He then suggested to her, partly to get out of the building for a while.

Lost in Nightmares: Rising Dawn Crew Feat. Yu Narukami Vs. Nyarlatothep

Other battle music, because Nyarlatothep is a thieving whore [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fV7DahJVudI]

Caim

The (former) Prince of Caerleon looked up at the great Eldritch Abomination that was unfurling it's many tentacled self before the party, and gripped his sword with a grimace,
Code:
"Who cares what you have to say? I've killed 'Gods' that were less annoying than you, and I'll do it again! ODIN, HELP ME PUT THIS ONE DOWN!"
Slashing through his Tarot Card, the Persona Odin [http://imgur.com/IMUDyc4] appeared, and brought his spear into a mound of black flesh; Caim following suit with a charge and a slash of his own.

Angelus

"I care not for your trivial words. I will turn you to ash for causing us all of this trouble. Echinda, let us clean up after this mess!" With a wave of her hand, Kingsblood slashed her Tarot Card and her Persona [http://imgur.com/cyV26fw] appeared in a crackle of fire. As it spread it's wings, Angelus pointed her dagger in Nyarlatothep's direction, and the feminine Persona opened it's mouth to unleash a set of 8 fire balls at the Crawling Chaos after The Wanderer's lazer light show and Ella's lightning.

Ton Ton, Cadolbolg

Cadolbolg took to the air the moment Devon began her bard song, and called out, "We got you covered, Devon! Don't forget it! Lei-Zhenzi, work with Galahad!!"

Ton Ton hopped on his companion's back again, and called out, [color=15650D]"I was BORN to fight things like you, Daemon! Galahad, Light up this darkness!"[/color]

At the combined call of the Cuties, Galahad [http://imgur.com/lTZrgPF] and Lei Zhenzi [http://imgur.com/76EbNwS] appeared together, the Hooded Knight lifting his grail whilst the Dragon Warrior lifted a flaming sword. A halo of light began to concentrate from the grail and then encircle the flaming sword before Lei Zhenzi swung the blade, sending the empowered burst at one of Nyarlatothep's tentacles.

Teri, Garm, Dimitri

[color=0E59E4]"God has faith in me, as with everyone else here. That's all I need to remember before I start believing you! Sadei, Garm, Dimitri? Shall we?"
"Let's fuck this ***** up!"[/color]
[color=3897E0]
Code:
"Commencing scan with Persona: Thoth!"
[/color]
[color=356D60]"I am right behind you, Tear-ri!"[/color]
As Ella began to move towards their enemy, Teri whirled and gave her Arcana card a good kick to summon Toyotama-hime [http://imgur.com/q7mjRI9] into the fray, bringing the healing Aura with her. Following that, the Cleric began incanting a prayer. Holding the hand with the cross necklace aloft, she finished with, [color=0E59E4]"Thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. AMEN!"[/color]
Toyotama pointed her trident at the sky, and a pillar of light engulfed the Cleric, filling her with renewed strength. Taking on Fire Stance, the Cleric charged in with Ella, and struck a section of Nyarlatothep on the other side of Ella's pincer attack.

After the initial strike, the Cleric brought out a vial of holy water and anointed a small drop upon the staff before giving another incantation, ice sprout over it before Teri took her stance again.

Code:
Teri has cast Frost Weapon. This spell gives attacks with Sadei an extra OOMPH! as it adds ice damage, along with the usual from Sadei.
Teri has cast Divine Power. This gives her some combat ups, including an 18 strength (with fire Stance), extra HP, and the fighting ability of a fighter her level. It will last 48 seconds.
24 seconds till the next 2nd level spell.
12 seconds till the next 4th level spell.
Garm followed behind Ella and Teri, calling to his Persona for aid as well, [color=356D60]"Gelert! Give that baddy a nice chill!"[/color]
When the Iron-born Wolf appeared, it gave a shaking howl before it's shards of ice dug into the same section of Nyarlatothep.

Nyarlatothep

The Crawling Chaos shrieked and writhed in pain as several of it's face masks began to shatter, compounded by the fact that
A) Several of said masks were disappearing at the same time.
B) Melethia's poison in some of those masks
C) Several elemental attacks were being thrown at once, making it very hard to try to resist any at any given time
D) Other parts of him were being attacked as well, and frankly? It was a lot less bearable than dealing with 4 or 5 when it was near 10 strikes he had to defend against.

Obviously, this was a lot worse than the small gang of teenagers he had to contend with before. Shivering and shuddering, the party began to notice that the black mass that constituted his body was beginning to wriggle, to which Dimitri called out, [color=3897E0]
Code:
"He's changing his Strengths and Weaknesses.... Resistance: Wind. Weakness: Physical![footnote]I rolled on a random number generator. This really turned up. >.>[/footnote]

And watch out! Two attacks are on the way! The First: 'Myriad Impale!' The second: 'World Ending Wave'!"
[/color]

"Silence, you mechanical mockery of life! It matters not what you say! ALL RETURN TO ME IN THE END! You cannot escape the wheel of fate!"

As he shouted this, several of the tentacles that were waving in the background disappeared into the fleshy ground below. A moment's pause arose before these tentacles began erupting from the ground underneath the party's feet, hoping to either impale or ensnare those nearby.

And if that weren't bad enough, the main head began to shake and jerk uncontrollably, and faintly, the party began to hear their own voices in the back of their heads. Whispers of past failures, of fears, of that which one wished to forget... Were it not for Devon's music playing, it would have been clear as crystal...

Yo dudes said:
Essentially, Nyarlatothep is pulling the trick where he tries to use a person's insecurities against them. Think of this like a Shadow, save that your Personas will not be affected. Nyarlatothep is using his impersonation skills/collective badness to bring this up to your characters. How you wish to confirm or deny what Nyarlatothep says to your characters is up to you. What he says, is up to you. He's pulling into YOUR characters insecurities. I want you guys to personalize this in the way that'd work best for you. :)

Kala felt the sting of another, condescending voice in the back of her mind... it wasn't Demi's per say, but... it's words still hurt as much as when her shadow mocked her.

(Why are you even here?)

(What? Who's there?)

(It doesn't matter if I tell you or not, it doesn't even matter if you could consider "winning" this fight a victory. Sure, your putting an "evil" Deity in his place. Bet that would look good on your life resume when you die. Oh, but wait, none of it will matter. Even if you manage to survive this, your not going to live forever... and nothing you've ever done or will do will stop you from roasting an eternity in Baator, tiefling.)

(How do you know about that?)

(Oh please, you give that sob story to everyone who figures out that your a Tiefling at some point or another. Sad thing is, they probably don't even realize how true it is. Why do you even tell them? You want someone to pray for you? Mourn you? Care about you? They don't. They won't. Your just that insignificant. No one cares about that. They don't have to deal with it, you do. It's not their problem, and no one is going to make it their problem, no matter how much you think they like you. Prove anyone you want wrong about being "evil" because your a Tiefling as much as you want, in the end, you wind up in the same place. So why are you here? You might as well save someone else the trouble and off yourself!)

(Your right...)

She thinks as the expression on her face looks like she could nearly be brought to tears, emotionally crushed, even the tone of "voice" in her thoughts sounding crushed. Slumping to her knees and burying her head in her hands, one of the spikes erupting from the ground nearly pierces her chest, but out of a burst of willpower she almost didn't know she possessed, she dodged out of the way.

She turns from the verge of tears, to clenching her fist and gritting her teeth with a scowl on her face, a rekindled determination resounds throughout her mind in her response.

(Your right. And I don't care!)

(Of course I'm righ... hm?)

(Your right, and I don't care... Let them mourn me or not at their will, to be honest, I never wanted them to. Prayers won't help me, and I wouldn't force anyone to try. If they care enough to try, that's fine, but I don't need anyone's seal of approval, much less yours. It's not their problem where I go when I die, your right about that too. It's my burden, and mine alone. Fighting the evil in my blood proved a lot of people wrong about their first impressions of me, your right. That, however, is also a convenient and appreciated side effect, not my true intention. Your right again, it doesn't matter what I do, I end up in the same place. Though, fighting the evil in my blood was never about escaping that either. Even if your right about all these things, you are wrong about me.)

(Really? Oh do tell.)

(No one knows me better than myself, so I'll indulge you. What has all of this been about? Why am I here? Because I choose to be. I choose a life apart from the evils associated with my kin not because I wanted to change my fate at the end. I wanted to change the journey, not the destination. How many Tieflings took part in the Defense against a Devil invasion? How many have a best friend in the high paladin of a church of demon slayers and exorcists? How many of my kind do you know to have their mental fortitude tested by a visit to the plane of insanity itself, and emerge with a victoriously sharp, sound mind? Many of my kin chose to embrace the darkness, choosing the free, easy ride to their fate. Even if I end up the same place, roasting next to whoever got me into this damn curse... I am not my kin, this I have proven not to the world, but to myself. If and when I stand face to face with the one who sold me to a hellish fate, I truly will have to thank them. It is because of them my fulfilled, satisfying, heroic life was made possible. Difficult, but possible nonetheless. It is because of them, that should they either look to me as an undeserving prisoner who has committed no crime, or a fool for defying the "nature" of a Tiefling, I can walk through hell with a smile, undaunted and truly proud.)

(...)

(I'm not here to impress you. GET OUT!)

Almost on command, her antagonist stops their mental assault in their tracks. Having enough self respect and willpower to shut it up, she sure as hell isn't going to let anything it says get to her.

Maka sighed at the fact that she likely wouldn't be returning home any time soon.

"Well, looks like I'll be staying here for a while... can't hurt to know the area a little better. Sure."

She said, accepting Violet's invitation.

"You know, I knew someone who called himself an assassin. I take it that isn't too different from a ninja right?" she asks, remembering the showboating loudmouth that was, Black Star. For an assassin, he often did stealth poorly, if he even bothered with it. Still, probably shouldn't outright say that at the moment, considering it might insult someone who likely doesn't have that flaw.

"So, are you two coming along too? I'd prefer to keep a bigger group than just two." She said, which was partially true. Mostly true, even. The other portion? A guy in a pinkish-purple suit with purple hair doesn't exactly look like a tough guy deterrent, and she wasn't interested in defending herself from getting mugged.[footnote] It is evening right now in this scene, so it should be getting dark out while they're out.[/footnote] Not that whoever was doing the mugging would get very far without some cuts and bruises, but... well, might as well try not to piss people off.

Rising Dawn Crew Feat. Yu Narukami Vs. Nyarlatothep
Location: Lost in Nightmares.
Time: ???
Other battle music, because Nyarlatothep is a thieving whore [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fV7DahJVudI]

The Lone Wanderer.

The evil high Demon insulted Dimitri, mocking the AI life-form. "How ugly." The Wanderer spat out, preparing another of his many weapons in-hand. The giant Gundam Persona, Kannon doing the same but pulling out the laser sword that came with the Gundam. Yet before launching another attack the sudden tentacle attack spouted from the ground with such speed and sharpness, that it instantly stabbed through Kannon.

Feeling the direct pain from his 'mask', Wanderer felt that he had been stabbed through his center. The mutant lurched forward and began to spew out blood in a unhealthy way. "Ah, a-ah, oh my-Bleeeeeeh!" The man briefly said before more weird coloured blood came from his mouth. Gripping to the Gundam's head for support, the Wanderer's eyes lit up with anger. "Worse ... worse than pre-war food. You will di-!" The Wanderer almost yelled, but paused to cover his mouth.

("Fuck this fuckin' shit!") The Wanderer yelled within his own mind, pausing in the real battle to take a break to gather himself together. ("Hey, you okay? You should be, we both know you can fuck this shit up and go through a lot more!") The former Shadow said to his lighter side, yet within their mind they could hear a light laughter came to the front of the mind. ("Hehehe, hello ladies~") The new voice said with a charismatic yet aggressive voice.

("The hell?")
("The fuck?!")

Both voices yelled in unison, sounding both the same. ("Are you two really surprised that another voice is in here?") The new personality said, yet both the original voices could sense the brooding yellow eyes of this new guy. The Good Doctor said ("Suuuuuure? An I'm the P-"), yet a straight up bad voice followed through with a vocal punch. ("Get the fuck out of here scrub! Before I am going to get these motherfucking voices out of this motherfucking head!") The evil side said with a hint of asshole in his voice.

("Oh my, he got to 'those' DVDs.") The good side said, if this was in visual he would be facepalming. ("Stay out of this whitey! I'm going to cut a *****!") The evil said directly back. Within the look-alike interrogation room mind setting, it would look like that the evil red-eyed Wanderer was approaching the worried yellow-eyed clone Wanderer with a cleaver. Sitting on the metal chair towards the metal table, the normal or good Wanderer was face-palming.

A direct mental attack was never the way to go to harm the Wanderer. Especially if the evil side is the type to murder a look-alike asshole. While the evil side was painting the mind red, the ordinary Wanderer focused back onto the real battle, feeling much better that now he has talked a bit to his other side. Getting up from his leaning position, the Gundam hopped back into action too, blade ready. "Hey Nyarlasshole, you are going to have to do a much better job at that if you want to FUCK my bad side! Now be a good boy and eat this~" The Good Doctor said as he tapped the Gundam's head.

Kannon began it's charge to deliver a laser sword to Nyarlatothep.

Yu Narukami.

While on Yu's end he was dealing with the final evil with small damage back towards himself, even the tentacles were immediately cut by his current Archangel Persona. Yet turning back to Nyarlatothep, the movement of his head was unsettling. Yet it seemed everything was mostly silent afterwards, apart from the music played from his bardic comrade. Suddenly as only appearing to him, a very familiar figure faded into the space in front of Yu.


"You ... I already dealt with you." Yu immediately said with surprise, his katana prepared quickly. Yet remembering dealing with this shadow, Yu thought this was just a trick and jumped to attack. Yet the shadow-like figure jumped out of the way. "Whoa, hold it Mr. calm." The Yellow-eyed Yu shot back calmly, the normal Yu obliged and calmly lowered his weapon. "I know ... this may seem awkward. You have reminded yourself about why you fight. You know you are not alone ..." The Shadow paused to smile weirdly.

" ... but, who are these people? What are they to you, comrades?"
"Hold it! I know what you are going to say. I care about these people, they, like me, have people who they love and fight for ..." Yu said confidently, this tone turned into a smile. "Now leave false shadow. Nyarlatothep will not trick me." Yu said in response, walking toward the false shadow to prove his point. The Shadow awkwardly spat and tried to attack the master natural user, yet it just fell through him.

Not needing to look back, Yu knew that was a trick.
"Help me ... Chie." He said in a lonely voice, summoning his next Persona.

Edge nodded. "Yeah. They're basically the same thing, although I don't kill people so much."

"Believe me, you don't need anyone other than Edge over here." Boss said. "He's gotten me out of more jams than I care to remember. Which is to say four. Six if you count the spaceship, but I don't."

"You'll be safe enough with us, if you're worried about that." Edge said.

Location: Violet's Lab, G-Corp Building
Time: Evening
"Sure, I need to get some air anyway. Hey, you lot, me and the newcomer are heading into the city if you want to come with" Violet said as the group began to make it's way down to the city level, Maka and Boss realizing just how advanced Kazuya's building was.
A quick elevator ride later and they were in the lobby, though a lot of the employees were going home for the night.
"Now, normally I'd have a driver, but we...er, didn't get along too well. Wait outside while I bring the limo around." Violet then said as he went to the underground garage and drove the Limo out front.
"Urg, this is so much better when you aren't the one driving...So anywhere you want to go Maka?"

Location: Outside the GOP fundraiser
Time: Night
"Whoa, hey, what is that-" Bruiser went to ask, but he got his answer when the entire rear half of the limo surged forward all of a sudden, thanks to the force of the President's gun.
This caused him to spin out of control and go off the road while Fulgore was on the business end of the blast, getting struck back a sizable distance as a result, not that anyone could see that as they flew off the beaten path.
"SHIT SHIT SHIT OH FUCK!" Bruiser screamed as they went flying off a bridge, the limo quickly blowing up on landing and turning into a massive fireball.

But strangely enough, that's not what their fate was as all of sudden, they were ouside, set up a good distance from the blast to watch it happen.
As the President tried to process this, A faint glow could be seen in Bison's eyes.
[color=6c1605]"That should keep them off us. It'll be hours before they figure out we weren't inside it when it crashed."[/color]
"...Hey, mind not cutting it so fucking close next time? Sheesh..."
