Rin: "Well, let's hook you up with a new meal!" *looks to Stocking* "Um...may we borrow your card?" -elsewhere- Kepuri: "YOU'RE NOT GETTING AWAY THAT EASILY!" lin: *FLEEING* O-O;;;; Emine: *picks up Lin while running* "Escape escape escape--" nea: ?? Kepuri: *ROAR* *her face is blue* Emine: "I only mixed in a little drainage cleaner into your face cream...Not my fault you're so...blue." akaderu:.....you bastards. *a double appears and PUNCHES EMINE IN THE FACE* Kepuri: *leaps to tackle Emine* Emine: x____x -elsewhere- Gopher: ^W^ "They screamed so loudly." kirika: what a bunch of wimps.... *bandaged in several places* lord death: i understand your reason was noble, but do try to be more careful from now on. kirika: yeah yeah i hear ya... Gopher: "I appreciate you defending me...and I'm sorry for your injuries." kirika: eh, its no biggy. i've had way worse happen to me before. Gopher: *nods* "I do want to repay you...so if you need anything, please, just ask." kirika: *small blush* s-sure. Gopher: *smiles* -elsewhere- Patty: "How does this one look?" *exits dressing room in a new dress* tsubaki: it looks great! liz: nice! Patty: "Hee hee! I'm getting it for graduation!

I got Kid's credit card..." -elsewhere- Yohei: "...I'm sorry." chie: its ok....*leans in* Yohei: *holds her* "Our child will be safe." chie: ...... Yohei: "You'll make sure of that, I'll make sure of that..." -elsewhere- Mr. Tsubaki: *in fox form, walking through town* -elsewhere- Spirit: *waiting by his car* izumi: hey! *smiles* Spirit: *smiles, waves* "Hey! How was school?" izumi: it went well. Spirit: "That's good." *opens her door, makes sure she buckles up* "Got your homework from your teachers?" izumi: *nods* Spirit: *gets in the driver's side, buckles up* "That's good. Want to stop anywhere on the way home? Something to eat or anything to pick up?" -elsewhere- Higan: "Feel better?" lavender: yeah...thanks for that. Higan: *nods, rubs her arm* "...I just want to make sure you're doing okay..." lavender: *she smiles* i appreciate that... Higan: "I know you would do the same for me...After all, no one is alone in getting through any of this, right?" lavender: right..... Higan: *stretches a bit* "You know, maybe some art would help...Want to head to the park, do some photography?" lavender: sounds good. Higan: *smiles* "Cool." *pulls out his coat and hers* "Here you go." lavender: thanks. Higan: *picks up his camera, opens the door for her* "Should be good weather out. Bright enough." -elsewhere- Kid: "My...Such a big library." stocking: wow. Rin: "Yeah, plenty of books! And teachers get more options for checking out higher-level texts." Kid: "Like three-star meisters checking out advanced books..." stocking: cool!..... !!! ah hell... -_-; Mr. A: "Demon." stocking: triple a batteries. Rin: *snort* stocking: *offers high fives to kid and rin* Mr. A: "Hmm...Taking a tour? That's nice. Oh, by the way: I will be reviewing your application. And helping to lead your job interview." stocking: is...that.....so now? ^^# Mr. A: "Yes. Because nepotism is not enough to get you here...Isn't that right, Mr. Okumura?" Rin: -3- stocking:.... Kid: "Then Stocking will be one of your most honorable applicants and hired teachers." stocking: *she smiles* Mr. A: "I assure you, I hold all applicants to the strictest of standards. And given Miss Pheles's earlier outbursts--" stocking: *grips fist* i was only protecting a student! Mr. A: "If you read rules, you would know such behavior reflects poorly on the Academy. Perhaps ask your father to remind you--" mephisto: remind her what~? ^^# Rin: "!!!" Mr. A: "...Remind her that the interview process to this academy is not to be taken lightly." mephisto: i understand. i _also_ know my little girl is more than mature enough to take this seriously. stocking: *smiles* Mr. A: "...I hope so. If you excuse me..." mephisto: *gives him the 'im watching you' sign* Mr. A: *walks a bit more quickly* stocking: thanks dad. mephisto: not to worry~ *HUG+cheek paps* what kind of a father would i be if i just stood on the sidelines as my little princess was being tormented by that huge dingus! Kid: *smiles* Rin: "Ha ha...Dingus." stocking: daaaaad..... what did i tell you about PDFA in public?! Kid: *small laugh* mephisto: whoopsie. sorry about that~ stocking: -////-;; Kid: "Sir, were there other locations in the Academy that you recommend we visit?" -elsewhere- Hugh: "Oh, welcome to the onsen! May I help you?" naho: heyyyy there..... ^^; tetsu: oh. hey....naho, i think? misono: yes. lilac: *hiding behind sakuya and naho* g-greed...isnt here....i-i-is he? Hugh: "...No. You have no fear of that." lilac: *tiniest peeeek* kaori: its ok. Hugh: *serious stare* "So, is this a friendly visit, or a business visit?" naho: just here to enjoy the hot springs! ^^;;; Hugh: "Very well. The changing room is down hall..." -later- Sakuya: "Aaaaah...So good." naho: =w= lilac: *almost all the way under, only his head above his nose is visible* Sakuya: "Enjoying it, Lilac?" lilac:...warm.... Sakuya: *smiles* "That's good...How about you, Naho?" *rests a hand on her shoulder* naho: *snuggles* =w= Sakuya: -\\\\- "That's so cute." *snuggle* lilac: *also leans* Sakuya: *hand on Lilac's shoulder* "Aw..." -elsewhere- Tsukiyo: "Darn...Where is it...?" kabuki: oh? Tsukiyo: "I had left one of those impersonation-detector papers in one of my books...but I don't remember which book." kabuki:... *sweatdrop* they're not really meant to be used as bookmarkers. -they did find it eventually- Tsukiyo: "Oh, good! I should have known I left it to mark my spot in the anatomy book..." kabuki: *sweatdrop* Tsukiyo: "Well, I should reward you for your help! Drinks on me?" -elsewhere- Relan: *doing sit-ups* -elsewhere- naho: we're home! lavender: welcome back kiddos. tsubaki: ^^ Higan: *reviewing photographs on digital camera* Sakuya: "Yo. How's your day been, Tsu?" tsubaki: fairly well. otogiri: *repairing clothes* Sakuya: "??? What happened to the clothes?" otogiri: belkia fell out of a tree again. Sakuya: -_-; Belkia: *bandaged* ._o "Can you help me with my eye? It seems smaller than the other one now." naho: maybe if you wore an eyepatch you'd look like...sham.....*worried* Sakuya: ._. Belkia: "...Um...No..." Higan: *sigh* ("Still haven't found him...") tsubaki:............ Sakuya: "...Tsubaki...We need to find him, too." tsubaki: ...*she nods* Belkia: "After that battle, who would have him?" tsubaki:.....C3. Sakuya: "!!!" lavender: !! -tsubaki explains the situation- Sakuya: "...How long have you known?" tsubaki: ever since that meeting with touma... naho: this touma guy sounds like a huge jerk! Sakuya: "...Damn it...So, when we breaking Shamrock out?" otogiri: we're going to need a plan... Belkia: "BLOW IT UP TO THE GROUND!" otogiri: no. Higan: "We'll need a distraction to pull them out. They know Tsubaki..." tsubaki: maybe we could ask the others? Sakuya: "...Worth a shot...if they'd be willing..." naho: *NOD NOD* Higan: "So, a few distract, a few sneak in, a few sneak Sham out, and we'll need more muscle..." lavender: im more then capable of distraction~<3 otogiri: -_-; Higan: ^^ "I know that. May also need a distraction for those inclined to men." -and so- misono: YOU WANT US TO WHAT?! O.O; Lily: "??~" Hugh: -___- Kuro: "...Huh." tsubaki: that's the basic jist of it. Kuro: "...Do I have to leave the house to do this?" mr sendagaya: tetsu, you have some guests. shinoa: good evening~ misono: O////O !! mitsuba:.... !!! hyakuya: *notices higan* oh yeah, you're that pervert on the plane from last year. Higan: -____- lilac:.... !!!!!!! *trembling* licht:.....hey. Lawless: *trying to hide behind Licht* otogiri: *holds onto lilac* its ok. licht: *grabs lawless by the tie* get over here, you shit rat. Lawless: *whispering at Licht* "Why did you even bring me here!" licht: emergency meeting means 'bring everyone.' including you. Lawless: *grumble grumble* lilac: *staring at the floor* Sakuya: "...Mahiru, we're going to need everyone on this." mahiru: right. misono: very well. -after the situation is explained- otogiri: !!!!!!!! Belkia: "..." *shaking his fists* misono: then we'll have to work to free shamrock _and_ miss himawari. mitsuba: im calling in back-up. Kuro: "...Taking on all of C3...This can't go well." mitsuba: unless we have some eyes on the inside.... shinoa: as well as some back up from a 3rd party~ *making a call* hello, is mikuni in? misono: of course... -_-; mitsuba: O///O Mikuni: "Speaking." shinoa: we're planning a rebellion against C3, are you in or out? Mikuni: "...'Bout time! I'm in!" shinoa: alright. come over to the white water hot spring. we'll discuss the plan there. Mikuni: "Awesome! Want me to bring the others over? Even Jeje?" Jeje: "...I have to go with you everywhere, you dunce." shinoa: just you two for now. Johannes: *peeping up behind Jeje* "You need me for something?" Jeje: "No." Johannes: *pouts, slinks away* Mikuni: "Heading over now!" metsu: i'll stay here and make sure the good doctor is on his best behavior. Mikuni: "Thank-ee!" Jeje: *nods* Johannes: "...When am I _not_ on my best behavior?" metsu: -_-;; -and so, when they arrived and the situation is explained in full details- Mikuni: "Huh...You sure you want to pull out more vamps? I mean, if this Sham guy worked for Tsubaki..." Sakuya: -_- tsubaki: i was tasked with protecting them. they're part of our family now. and that means _all_ of them. misono: and the three of you will help, even though it might get you in trouble? mitsuba: its just a risk we're going to have to take. hyakuya:..... Mikuni: "Well, I've been wanting to slap the smirks off some C3 people's faces, so I'm in!" Jeje: "...Tsubaki, just promise me you'll do a better job tending to these subclasses than certain other people..." tsubaki: *she nods* hyakuya: im not looking forwards to helping these bloodsuckers.....but i really want to give that touma prick a good what for... Hugh: "Fine...I'll join." misono: very well. since we know our goal, we now need our plan. mikuni and shinoa squad, since you're more familiar with C3's layout, you can help us locate and access point. shinoa: understood. mitsuba: i know where they're being held. sham is in the lower cells, and himawari, im assuming, is someplace in touma's office. Higan: "We have a distraction--" Belkia: "I want Touma...So I can put his head on a pike." otogiri: *she nods* misono: we'll worry about that when we get to that point. Kuro: "We got enough muscle?" tetsu: yo. Kuro: "We got enough muscle?" tetsu: yo. misono: we'll go in two formations. alpha team will consist of me, lily, lavender, shinoa, tetsu, hugh, licht, and lawless. delta team will be tsubaki, higan, mitsuba, hyakuya, mikuni, jeje, mahiru, and kuro. the rest will be omega team, and will act as intel and back up. shinoa: fortunately, we managed to talk the mad dog team into helping us. at least two of them....as for tsurugi, it's uncertain... Mikuni: "If you need me to shut up Tsurugi, I'm up for that~" mahiru: we'll just need transportation. misono: already on that. lily, call up dodo. hyakuya: why cant you do it? misono:....... Lily: *already calling Dodo* "We need a ride..." -and so- tsubaki: so this is the access point? Jeje: "Sleepy Ash and I can transform to be fit inside..." mahiru: then you'll be able to unlock the door? Kuro: "Right..." *transforms into a cat, leaps up to the access point...and can't reach* -_-; Jeje: *in snake form, nudges Kuro up* mitsuba: i think we can get to the cells from here... *Jeje and Kuro get inside...Jeje holds up Kuro to unlock the door* Kuro: "Tah-dah..." mahiru: alright. mitsuba: awesome. lets go. Kuro: *looks around inside* "...Cold." -upstairs- himawari:...... Touma: *whistling* C3 member: oi touma. we got some ruckus going on out front. Touma: "?!! Define 'ruckus.'" C3 member: we have some wounded claiming they were attacked by a stray subclass... Touma: "Damn it...I'll be right there." *turns off intercom, looks at Hinawari* "Back to your cell..." himawari:.....*she goes back in* Touma: *locks her in, hides the cell, exits for the hallway...* "Time to put a stop to this...Discipline some children." -outside- misono: *has fake blood on him* ahhh! this freakin huuuurts! Hugh: "WAAAAAAAAH! My little hand! My tiny adorable little hand hurts!" tetsu: *absolute monotone* ahhhh. the paaaain. shinoa: its ok misono, they're getting help! *hugs him* misono: O//////////////////O;;; C3 Member #2: "Jeez! Holy crap! Th-There's blood everywhere!" *grows pale in the face* C3 Member #2: "D-Did anyone call Touma?" C3 member: yeah, he's on his way down now. -inside- Jun: "What's all the noise about?" tinker: i think we got some wounded! yumikage: ... Jun: "...Oh, no...Um...Send more people to tend to them. I'll keep an eye on things here." tinker: on it! yumikage: i'm gonna head downstairs. Jun: *nods* "I'll be monitoring security..." -downstairs- Jeje: *looking around* mitsuba: here it is. *she opens the door* Kuro: *looks through the door* "Where next?" mitsuba: *she points to a door* that leads to his cell... hyakuya: who's gonna pick the lock? Jeje: "..." *slides his tail into the lock...* tsubaki: ?? *CLICK* Mikuni: "...Huh. Can't believe that worked." tsubaki: good job. *she smiles and opens the door* Kuro: *prepares himself in case of an attack* Mikuni: *holds up a doll to protect himself* tsubaki: sham? are you in here? Shamrock: "??!!! What?!" tsubaki: *she smiles* hyakuya: hey, bustin you out. not that we want to. Shamrock: "...Why should I trust you?" tsubaki: *she looks at higan* Higan: "Yo, buddy." Shamrock: "..." Q~Q "SAVE ME!" tsubaki: ok. *she slices the lock off with her arm blade* Shamrock: *collapses in front of Tsubaki* "Thank you for saving me, despite stealing him from me!" tsubaki:... eh? owo mitsuba: eh? mahiru: ?? hyakuya:....whatever, lets just get him out of here, then lets get himawari, or whatever her name was, out of here... Shamrock: "...Himawari is here, too?" mitsuba: yeah, in touma's office. Shamrock: "...How are we getting in there?" mitsuba: guess we're just gonna have to solid snake this! hyakuya: what? Jeje: "...Are you suggesting I'm _not_ solid?" Kuro: -____-;;; "Meaning we sneak in and knock some heads..." mitsuba:...right. mahiru: lets try to keep the body-count to a minimum =_=' Mikuni: "Right--kill only the people who have it coming!" Shamrock: x_o;; "...I can't tell whether I agree with him, or am horrified by that plan." mitsuba: ok, me, mikuni, higan, and jeje will go bust out himawari, the rest can escape, lower the chances of getting caught. Shamrock: "...No. I know more about this building than some of you. I recognize patterns, sounds, persons...and I really want to tear out Touma's throat..." mitsuba: you sure about that? tsubaki:...in that case. higan, come with us. i dont want to get you and the others in further trouble. Higan: "Okay--lead the way..." Shamrock: "Just point me in the right direction..." -and so, mitsuba leads her group upstairs towards touma's office- Shamrock: "Do you think he is still in his office?" mitsuba: hopefully, alpha team has him taken care of..... !!! there it is. wait here. *she checks the door....she motions them to come over* Shamrock: *approaches cautiously* -the office is empty- mitsuba:....mikuni, could you keep watch? Mikuni: "Aye-aye!" *holds his doll close, looks out the door* mitsuba: 7///7; *looks around the office* Shamrock: *examining the desk and walls...* "Hmm...What's this?" mitsuba: ?? -one book seems to be stuck....- Shamrock: *tugs* -that seemed to do it- himawari:............... Shamrock: "!!! Oh, God..." -she's covered in various injuries, including cuts, bruises, and cigarette burns, including a mark of two 'T's on her thigh.- Shamrock: "...Himawari...Do you remember me?" himawari: *she looks up, but doesnt say anything* mitsuba: !!!!....that son of a bitch! Shamrock: "Step One, get Himawari to medical treatment, out of here." *offers a hand to her* mitsuba: *removes her restraints* hold on, that magician guy gave me something... *pulls out a box?* now how do we use this?... Shamrock: "??? Is that one of Belkia's teleportation devices?" mitsuba: is that what it is? how do i use it? Shamrock: "I-I don't know...I think you open it and go inside?" mitsuba: *presses a button* ah- -FWOOF- Shamrock: "?!!" otogiri:.... mitsuba: we're back at...where are we? otogiri: tsubaki and black*star's house.....welcome home. Shamrock: "...I'm...not imprisoned any longer?" mitsuba: seems so. ???: aaaaaaAAAAAAM! *TACKLE-HUG* otogiri:... !!!! himawari!.....*picks her up and gets her to 'med bay' Shamrock: "?!!" naho: YOU'RE BACK!! TT~TT Shamrock: x\\\\\o "Y-Yes, I am...Hi?" lilac: w-welcome...h-home... naho: the others are gonna be back shortly! Shamrock: "..." *collapses to his knees* "Thank goodness..." -later- tsubaki: that went much better than i thought it would...*sigh* but you two will have to lay low for a while... Shamrock: *sigh* "Still, if this is to be my prison, it is a significant improvement." lavender: think of it as a safe-haven. Shamrock: "...Very well. At least here I can get a decent shower, privacy, and a meal." himawari:......... Belkia: T_T "I'm so happy you are here, Hima-tan..." lavender:........................*shaking* Higan: *pats Lavender's shoulder* "Let's be grateful that we are here..." lavender:...right.... Belkia: "...Hima-tan? You remember me, right?" naho: lots of stuff happened, i cant wait to tell you all about it! and miss tsubaki is really nice too. she even lets us have our own bedrooms! himawari:....... otogiri:...i think...she's still in shock... Shamrock: "Our own bedrooms? How spacious..." *glances at Himawari* Belkia: Q~Q otogiri:...*pap pap* naho: we even kept hold of your stuff from the other house, so you can have it back now. ^^. *she hands him a briefcase* Shamrock: "...I'm touched. Thank you..." -elsewhere- Touma: "...How?" mitsuba: *banged up* i never meant to let him get out...he just...broke out.... Touma: "A contained vampire DOES NOT JUST BREAK OUT!" mitsuba: i dont know how it happened! Touma: *his hand just over Mitsuba's throat* "You better find out...or you'll be in that cage." shinoa: mr touma, i believe that is quite enough. yumikage: yeah! just lay off her! she's beat up enough as it is! hyakuya: im _this close_ to cutting that hand off! Touma: "..." *pulls back his hand* "Clean her up, then hold her for additional questioning." yumikage: right.........*exits with them* you ok? mitsuba: yeah....thanks for beating me up. yumikage: sorry...had to make it realistic. shinoa: we appreciate you helping us out like this. yumikage: no probs. touma's a dick. Jun: "...Yumikage, we will make this right..." yumikage: *he nods* for that girl...and tsurugi.... Jun: *nods* -elsewhere- Kid: "The tour helped with studying?" stocking: yep. i think i memorized the 5 true cross order branches; knight, tamer, aria, doctor, and dragoon... Kid: *smiles* "Sounds right. And you would be...?" stocking: havent decided yet...i'd have to look into it more. Kid: *nods* "With that sword of yours..." stocking: hmmm....but then i'd be stuck working with triple A batteries. Kid: "True...Could always 'encourage' him to apply his skills elsewhere...like as a circus clown." stocking: hah! Kid: *hug* "You'll be great in whichever branch you enter." -elsewhere- Jacqueline: *brushing her hair* -morning- Shamrock: *tossing in bed* "N-No..." tsubaki: sham? are you awake?

Shamrock: "..." *nods* "Good morning." tsubaki: what did you want for breakfast? Shamrock: "Oh!

Benimaru: "...I have considered contacting the 8th for assistance in locating any remaining dopplegangers." fang-hua: ah, i see. i know you're hesitant after the incident...but i do believe they're telling the truth. Benimaru: "...Agreed. I will make the call." fang-hua: *she nods* Benimaru: "Have some soldiers ready to greet them, and we will conduct one more sweep for impersonators." fang-hua: right.
