[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!]

[Yako][Cell][Takuto first, then Open]
She's dragged off to her cell and tossed to the ground. Before she can push herself up, a foot slams down on her forearm a few times. That's probably a mixed blessing—she'll definitely bruise pretty badly, but if she had been levering herself up, the force at that angle might had cracked or broken something—but a swift kick to her ribs and then the slam of a door minimize any thankfulness she might feel.
After a moment she sighs and pushes herself up, without so much as a wince. There are bruises on her face and more beneath her clothes, and the drugs may be all but out of her system, but her hunger is sharper than ever as punishment. Yako sighs and settles down against one of the far corners. It's only a minor inconvenience, she reminds herself, struggling to retrieve her optimism. She just has to wait a little longer.}
no subject
In a heartbeat, Takuto frees the key from the guard and unlocks the door. There's no way to know who is really on the other side, but he has a hopeful feeling that perhaps...
It is Yako.]
Yako! [He rushes to her side, dropping whatever weapon he was holding with a clatter, and crouches beside her, pulling her tenderly into his arms.]
no subject
Takuto doesn't, apparently.
She hugs him back, a bit desperately. She's missed him, and knowing he's probably been going insane with worry in the meantime hasn't helped at all.}
Takuto...
no subject
He pulls back just enough to stare into her eyes for a moment--yes, it really is Yako and she's alive and everything--and then kisses her with so much feeling that part of his soul seems to bleed through with it.
In all fairness, he's been resonating with several different weapons on his way to rescue Yako. But the emotion running through his soul isn't the determination from before, it's filled with relief and happiness, and probably at least a little bit of love itself.]
no subject
It's probably a lot of things, but Yako can't bring herself to care very much right now.
She's too busy meeting Takuto, mouth to mouth and soul to soul. She's too happy to see him to feel nervous about resonating again, and he probably can feel his own emotions mirrored back as her soul latches weakly onto his.}
no subject
He can see the bruises on her face and it breaks his heart. She's been held prisoner and these so called minor injuries had continued while he'd been powerless to come save her.]
Let's get out of here. [He gently releases her, but only enough to quickly slip an arm under her knees and lift her up princess style as he stands. Even though he won't make any claims about being a fairytale knight come to rescue his damsel in distress, he definitely plans to personally carry Yako out of this mess.]
no subject
She's startled by the sudden change in altitude, and wraps her arms around his neck quickly.}
Um...is it alright that your hands aren't free?
{She knows better to imply that she's too heavy to carry; she didn't even break one hundred pounds before BREW nabbed her, and she's actually lost weight since then.}
no subject
Any of the traps are already set off, and I think most of the bad guys are cleared up, too. [He places a quick kiss on her forehead and starts heading towards the doorway. He's not letting her go.]
/BUSTS IN ON YOUR CUTENESS
[of all the people who had been hovering in the doorway, at least there's one who isn't too concerned about making things awkward -- and who has been waiting to see yako for a while now.]
/WOW RUDE
{It's not for the same reasons, but he was one her mind just as much as Takuto has these past few days. Her face immediately clouds with guilt, and she's too tired to try and downplay how much being forced to stand him up tore at her.}
...sorry. I ended up keeping you waiting.
...at least you didn't try to kiss Yako first
The last thing you should think about right now is apologizing.
wait for it
It was not your fault. I missed you, Yako.
...
I missed you too. And...and I really did want to talk.
no subject
Still, Yako needs this hug and so he's fully supportive of her having it.]

[Sugata & Nanami][to the side of the above thread][Open]
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.]
no subject
I apologize for my friend's one track mind.
no subject
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.
no subject
no subject
Ah, yes, or at the very least wait somewhere out of the way until the others are ready to leave.
no subject
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.
no subject
Thank you, I'd very much appreciate your company.
[she begins moving away from the room] So you're friends with Takuto?
