[Open] There and Back Again

Characters: Rescue Operation volunteers, kidnapping victims, medics
Location: Underground tunnel system, beneath Death City
Rating: Varies
Time: May 13th, 7 AM
Description: The mission's simple: Arrest the perpetrators, and get our friends back. Of course, the kidnappers aren't going to make it simple...



The first step was finding a way into the tunnels connected to the sewers. Thanks to Guest investigators and the Death City Police Department, two entrances were found, allowing for a pincer movement. The mirrors are primed and ready to go, situated in the sewers proper by dawn and ready for a quick extraction of the abduction victims. On the other side, in the Shibusen clinic, medics are on standby for medical treatment of the victims and the fighters heading in to clear out and apprehend the masked weirdoes.

But the masked weirdoes have tricks up their own sleeves: The tunnels are littered with pit traps, thin wire triggers waiting to be sprung (or disarmed) with darts, arrows, or even falling rocks and debris in store for any intruders that decide to enter these makeshift halls, and the perpetrators themselves are armed with melee weapons, smoke and pepper bombs, and sheer numbers.

Today is also the day that the kidnappers have decided that a little isolation would make the prisoners more compliant. Roughly hauled up bright and early one by one, they're on their way to individual chambers when they each get a message via clairvoyance as promised:



"We're coming."




[ooc: You know the drill; tag your characters in and make your own threads using the following format: [Character(s)][Location][Open/Closed], and the victims are welcome to make threads as well for interactions among each other and those that find them. The operation will be complete at around noon with arrests taking place for a few hours afterward, for those in need of a timeline!]

[Sugata & Nanami][to the side of the above thread][Open]

[Nanami lays awkwardly on the ground where Takuto has left her to get the keys from the guard. It takes her a moment after she watches him drop Shinji to realize he isn't coming back for her. At least he had set her down somewhat nicely, she could have been dropped like Shinji.

That isn't to say she's not slightly irritated at being left behind after she put aside her differences to help out. With a loud sigh, she changes back to her human form. Most of the group had already moved forward and they wouldn't be watching her to transform with the action happening up front anyway.]

[sugata mostly stayed behind so he could give his friend the privacy he needed. he was actually about to leave but stops when he sees one of takuto's friends on the ground. he looks up as he heaves a sigh. really takuto? really? feeling the need to take up for his friend's rudeness he offers the blonde a hand.]

I apologize for my friend's one track mind.

[She had been planning on leaving as well so Sugata's voice comes as a bit of a surprise to her. Sadly, a while back if she had been in Taktuo's place and her brother had been in Yako's she might have done the same but that was neither her nor there.

Nanami accepts the hand and stands up and brushes herself off.]


Thank you. [At least someone around here has some manners] I don't think we've met yet, I'm Nanami Kiryuu.
peacocked: (live on Suza-- oh wait wrong person)

[personal profile] peacocked 2013-03-25 01:10 am (UTC)(link)
[he shakes his head and smiles down at her.] It's alright. And we haven't, I'm Sugata Shindou. [and with that he offers nanami a small formal bow.] It's a pleasure to meet you Nanami. [he pauses momentarily as he looks up.] Were you just about to leave?
morecowbell: (tea time)

[personal profile] morecowbell 2013-03-25 07:18 am (UTC)(link)
[Nanami returns the bow, it's been a while since anyone has been so formal with her which is actually quite refreshing.]

Ah, yes, or at the very least wait somewhere out of the way until the others are ready to leave.
peacocked: (bedroom eyes)

[personal profile] peacocked 2013-03-26 02:12 am (UTC)(link)
[it's in his nature to be formal and polite!]

I can accompany you, if you'd like. I was just about to leave myself. As much heat as I'll be under I think he needs to be alone right now. [he pauses as he looks on forward.] If you know what I mean.
morecowbell: (sincere smile)

[personal profile] morecowbell 2013-03-26 06:29 am (UTC)(link)
[She doesn't bother glancing in the room where the reunion is taking place because she can pretty much guess what's going on in there]

Thank you, I'd very much appreciate your company.

[she begins moving away from the room] So you're friends with Takuto?
peacocked: (is that so?)

[personal profile] peacocked 2013-03-26 10:06 pm (UTC)(link)
[aaaand with that he offers her his arm.] Yes, I am. For the short amount of time that I've known him I can confidently say that we're the best of friends.
morecowbell: (hoity toity)

[personal profile] morecowbell 2013-03-27 06:24 am (UTC)(link)
[oh mai what a gentleman, Nanami just goes ahead and threads her arm through] Hmm? Well that's nice. He seems to make fiends rather quickly, did you meet him here or are you from his world?
peacocked: (so... you swam here huh?)

[personal profile] peacocked 2013-03-27 11:16 pm (UTC)(link)
[he tries! once nanami is settled he'll continue his way down the tunnel.] He does, I'm sure it's one of his quirks though. Making friends easy, that is. But no, I'm from his world. We met in a rather interesting way. One I wouldn't really recommend to anyone else.
morecowbell: (unsuspecting)

[personal profile] morecowbell 2013-03-27 11:26 pm (UTC)(link)
[she follows] Oh yeah? And how was that?
peacocked: (but you still came back for me)

[personal profile] peacocked 2013-03-27 11:33 pm (UTC)(link)
He lived in the city up until he decided to go to a different high school. But you see the high school we attend is on an island. He, unfortunately, missed the last ferry of the day, so he decided to swim across the ocean. In his defense he said he didn't want to miss orientation, but he nearly drowned in the process. Had me and my friend not been there when he washed up on shore, then, he probably wouldn't have made it through the night.
morecowbell: (what am i looking at here?)

[personal profile] morecowbell 2013-03-27 11:52 pm (UTC)(link)
I can't say that I know him all that well aside from the few times we've resonated but that sounds entirely plausible. Am I right to assume that one of you had to gave him the kiss of life?
peacocked: (me > you)

[personal profile] peacocked 2013-03-28 12:10 am (UTC)(link)
You are indeed right in that assumption. My friend, Wako, was the person who gave him mouth to mouth.
morecowbell: (stepford wife)

[personal profile] morecowbell 2013-03-28 04:48 am (UTC)(link)
[she gives a side glance at the name but shrugs] Apparently he's also blessed with incredible luck to make up for his recklessness.

Oh, I suppose I should ask you if you're a Weapon or a Meister in the off chance one of the people he's knocked out along the way wake up and want some revenge. I, myself, am a Weapon.
peacocked: (live on Suza-- oh wait wrong person)

[personal profile] peacocked 2013-03-29 03:22 pm (UTC)(link)
He is. Takuto has an insane amount of incredible luck. I'm quite envious of it actually.

But ah, I'm a weapon actually. But I assure you if we run across anyone bent on revenge I'll take care of them.
morecowbell: (...yes?)

[personal profile] morecowbell 2013-03-31 12:45 am (UTC)(link)
[she also wishes she had good luck to make up for her own recklessness. Nanami can't help but smile at his chivalrous nature because sometimes it's nice to be the damsel in distress even if she can watch out for herself.]

You too, huh? [she's a little disappointed he's not a Meister] In any case we should probably err on the side of caution and move slowly until the others catch up.

peacocked: (eyes only for her)

[personal profile] peacocked 2013-03-31 01:24 am (UTC)(link)
[he offers her a smile as he nods his head.]

Ah yes, it would probably pay to be a little cautious here though. But, I'm sure we'll be fine. I do know a few things when it comes to self defense.
morecowbell: (aren't they lucky)

[personal profile] morecowbell 2013-03-31 06:03 am (UTC)(link)
That's reassuring. [she smiles, it's true they weren't dealing with Kishin eggs or Zagi here at least] I'll count on you then.

So how long have you been here?
peacocked: (ready to smile and love life)

[personal profile] peacocked 2013-04-02 02:12 am (UTC)(link)
[he nods his head and looks up wistfully.]

This would be my second day here.
morecowbell: (slight surprise)

[personal profile] morecowbell 2013-04-02 06:42 am (UTC)(link)
[she kind of trips a little when he says it's only his second day here, lucky for her she was still holding onto his arm]

Seriously? Only two days? Wow, okay. Well, since we're both weapons if you have any questions feel free to ask me anything. Do you know your weapon form is yet?
peacocked: (so... you swam here huh?)

[personal profile] peacocked 2013-04-02 04:44 pm (UTC)(link)
[aaaand he's right there to help stop her from falling flat on her face. he'll continue on once he's sure she has her balance again.]

Yes. Takuto can be rather persuasive when he wants to be. Besides, I don't mind. This means a lot to him, so in turn it means a lot to me as well. But thank you Nanami, I'll keep that in mind if I have any questions in the future. But no. I don't know what I am just yet. The only thing we had time for before the meeting started was to see if I was a meister or a weapon.
morecowbell: (yawn)

[personal profile] morecowbell 2013-04-02 08:05 pm (UTC)(link)
You're a really good friend, aren't you. [it was a rhetorical question, and she was feeling a bit jealous of Takuto at this point] If you're going to be continually persuaded to do things by Takuto I'd highly suggest attending morning training so you can get that figured out soon.
peacocked: (it's worth fighting for)

[personal profile] peacocked 2013-04-03 04:53 pm (UTC)(link)
I try to be, at least. [he offers her a small smile.] But yes, I do plan on going to those when they start back up.
morecowbell: (stepford wife)

[personal profile] morecowbell 2013-04-03 08:33 pm (UTC)(link)
[she is unable to return the smile since she has just come to the realization that with his bff around as a weapon Takuto probably doesn't need her anymore and even though she's trying to feel indifferent about it, the thought still kind of hurts.]

I'm sure I'll see you there then, do be sure to let me know your weapon form once you find out. If you'd like, I can lend you my dagger until you find something for yourself.
