((OOC: Hell yeah! Anaru on the scene, gonna cut a bitch for his bud.))

Jesse came in with Cyrus, albeit rather than walking the ghost just floated through the wall. He was very clearly Maori in ethnicity, though dressed very sharply in dark jeans, black pinstripe blazer over a t-shirt and a black fedora.

"Hey there, Cyrus." He greeted the spirit medium with what sounded like an Australian accent, "So... What in the bloody hell's going on?"


Noah just kind of very reluctantly followed behind the group that held him hostage. It felt so wrong just to be stuck back there while these guys went into the lab... And the worst part was, he couldn't even fight back. He wasn't as powerful as his mother or grandfather...

"Wow, here we go again. You just can't stop being a useless hindrance, can you?"

His head perked up, and he started looking around the room. He then realized that his earlier fears were coming true- the stress of his current situation was causing him to hear voices again.

Cyrus phased through the floor to the basement with some of Jesse's power. "Some asshole's screwing with the electricity, Kunstler wants us to see what it is. Of course he sends me..." He rolled his eyes as he levitated through walls, searching for anyone.

"Okay, you bastard! Get your ass out here!"


Anaru felt around for his master's emotional profile, weaving through the web of chaos in the foyer.

Noah was terrified. Near him were two men with nothing but cold resolve; he fled in their direction, the small horns on his head guiding him there.

"The hell?" Isaac muttered. To the new guy, David, Isaac said, "fine, but don't do anything stupid. Shut up and follow orders unless you see something useful or know something useful. Now, I ain't sure if that light trouble is a hello from the guys running this place, or if we got friends fucking shit up. We'll find out soon enough, I suppose." Ian seemed comfortable in the dark; Isaac followed him, motioning for the others to do the same. "Alright, show time, boys."

"Fair enough," David said. "I can handle myself." He took up a position at the back of the group before saying, "By the way, if any of you needs a flashlight, I've got one." He waved his light around a little.

The hall seemed threatening in the dark. In a way, it made things a bit easier for David. If he just had a gun, it would practically be a normal day in SFOD-O.

Lucas has wondered what had went on downstairs that caused all that noise and shut the power down. But decided it was best to take the chance and follow Isaac's group to investigate the west wing for now. However Lucas planned to stay a safe distance behind them at all times.

But first Lucas decided to set a dimension warp at a side of the current room just in case it could come in handy. Which left visible signs of a round purple swirl. He can only set a number of warps at a time so he had to be careful. With that done, it was time to follow the rest of the group.

They heard someone coming after them at an inhumanly fast speed.

"YOU! RELEASE HIM!"

He whipped out his swords and got in a fighting stance.


Cyrus was getting tired already. He decided to play with them a bit.

"Come out, come out, wherever you are!~~~" he said mockingly. "What? Are you guys a bunch of pussies? Afraid of the scary ghosts?"

Jesse just sort of floated around Cyrus. He glanced at the boy and said kind of flatly, "Dude, you're a psycho creeper or something."


Noah immediately recognized the voice of his friend. Yes! Anaru showed up!

"Relying on that elf again? Are you really that' worthless and helpless?"

Shut up, you're not real. And I'd like to see you do better in this situation.

"At least I don't rely on my boyfriend to bail me out of every tough situation."

Dude, not cool! I swear to God our relationship isn't like that!

Isaac turned to the swordsman. No need for unnecessary violence, he decided. "You must be local security. I'm gonna make you an offer, and if you're smart, you'll take it. If you got nothing to hide, give us full access to your labs. We need to make sure you ain't got any dark plans for us, and that you aren't abducting innocents or making anything that could threaten the stability of the world." By "the stability of the world," Isaac meant Western Amalgamated's vise-grip on large-scale agriculture. He'd realized he and Alice were the bad guys long ago, but that suited him just fine. He'd learned early in his life that no good deed went unpunished. He secretly hoped the swordsman would refuse; it would give Isaac an excuse to take whatever scientific discoveries he found and claim them as his own.

Joy, David thought, Isaac doesn't really know what he's doing. If the swordsman was "making something that could threaten the stability of the world", a threat like this wouldn't be much to deter him or his allies, especially since Isaac's group had no weapons. On the other hand, if he wasn't, Isaac was already getting on his bad side with this.

"Full access to the labs" was also a pretty big condition, especially since whatever was being made here was obviously meant to be secret, given the castle's isolation. It might not even be something to take over the world; he had seen plenty of companies that kept their work as secret as possible, for fear of reverse-engineering, that were making things to improve life. Hell, even some movies had massive secrecy campaigns.

There were also no incentives for the swordsman to turn it down; he could simply say, "You are trespassing on private property, after being specifically told not to enter." and force the group back to the foyer. And, again, since they had no weapons, they couldn't resist without being wounded.

Unless Isaac's got some amazing plan up his sleeve, this won't end well.

"Leave, and release Noah. Or I will force you back into the foyer." The elven swordsman stood there with his swords drawn without conceding an inch of ground.

With a smirk, Isaac said. "I was hoping you'd say that." He turned to Gant and said, "Gant, please take that fellow's toothpicks, and shove them up his ass."

Noah panicked, "Please! Don't! Please, don't hurt Anaru!" The boy seemed to go frantic at the prospect of his friend getting hurt.

"It looks like you guys are having something of an argument."

Ian came out from the shadows, where he had been hiding while listening to their conversation.

"So what's exactly are you working on here?" Ian asked, rubbing the fingers of his hands, "Is it a weapon of mass destruction, a teleporter, a Gaia weapon? I'll like to know, because my organization might be concerned."

He pulled out a scientist tied and gagged with cables, who he snatched in the confusion, "Now. I have my hostage." he stroked his neck, feeling his pulse. He was getting...hungry.


ROSANNA rolled into the room quietly, looking around. It followed someone there.

"Scanning area." she announced. There was something important in the room.

OOC: I had to reread things a few time to figure out there's a standoff here. Can I decide what is one of the important things they're working on? It's the recycled plot from the last thread.

Alister could see them. One, two, three... there were five at least, not including the hostage. He made a sharp tug on the cord. Time to get to work.

The cord branched out into several smaller threads, each yanking out the pin of a flashbang affixed to random locations throughout the room. It was like god had pulled the sun to earth like a balloon, then stuck it with a needle. The world went blank.

Alister almost regretted being so sneaky about it, but he hadn't packed the right equipment for a good and proper ambush, so this would have to do. Besides, incapacitated was incapacitated. Didn't exactly matter how, now did it?

Alister walked out from the shadows. He strolled amongst the moaning piles on the floor. He stopped for a moment, backtracked and shot the swordsman and the creepy pale one in the leg. Best if they didn't get back up until he was far away from here. He hoisted the unconscious hostage over his shoulder and started walking. Sorry to put you through that buddy but it's the only way we're getting out of here.

OOC: Now would be a good time for Gant to get him under control. Might want to high-tail it though, he's still got a little present lying in wait.

Ian flinched in pain and grabbed his leg, cringing and cursing under his breath. How could he make such a careless mistake. Through the smoke, he saw the shooter snatch his hostage and take him away.

"Hmm...this is getting complicated." With the speed of a fast falcon, he chased after the ambuser. He wanted to know where he was going.

Anaru still bolted up and tried to stand, but could not, no matter how much he wanted to.


Through the ceiling of the cellar, Cyrus could hear it. The sound of combat. He smirked, then flew through the ceiling.

The two ghosts waited there. "Huh, you bolted out of there. You must be afraid of the big bad ghosts~" He mocked them. "What're you doing, anyways?"

David moaned, blinking off the aftereffects of the flashbangs. He slowly pushed himself to his feet, a tinnitus-like sound ringing in his ears and colored spots winking before his eyes. The standoff had ended in a disaster; Isaac had acted like a jackass to a more heavily armed man who probably also had more training than him, a pale teen he had seen in the foyer had appeared, inexplicably holding a scientist hostage, and then flashbangs went off all around the room. Next time, I'll go to the library.

He quickly surveyed the damage; he only had a few seconds before anyone else got up. Everyone seemed to be simply recovering, but the swordsman was bleeding slightly from the leg. The scientist also seemed to be gone, as well as the teen. A small trickle of blood ran off toward the foyer.

Hmm.

David quickly connected the dots and realized that there was someone else in the castle. Someone who set flashbangs in this room (talk about prepared), shot the swordsman and hostage taker to prevent them from following him (not that it helped with the hostage taker; he must've been pretty tough), and taken the scientist away. Probably paramilitary, from their methods; a bit unorthodox, but there was nothing wrong with that. It just wouldn't go over in a normal military force.

He picked up his flashlight and slowly staggered back towards the foyer, leaning against the wall for support.

Viktor knew that there were unauthorized personnel in the west wing.

He calmly walked there after them as he sent a text message to Kiyoi and Kenneth, who were still in the foyer- Kenneth, check the east wing. Kiyoi, come to the west wing. We have a problem on our hands.


Kiyoi got the message, and, after showing Kenneth, the two left for their destinations.


The old man came to Viktor's side, catching his breath. The two entered the laboratory area, and it didn't take them long to find one group of intruders.

Vince was going to have a cow when he came back.


Cyrus and Jesse, meanwhile, flew through the castle's corridors that hadn't been cleared yet, and he saw someone hauling a scientist over his shoulder.

"HEY YOU!" He bolted after the kidnapper.

Ian rushed near the sides of the corridors, his clothes almost brushing the side. He barely tailed the person who took his hostage, not wanting to stop him until he reached his desination. He could always go back to the lab later, once things calmed down.

"I'm still a little rusty," Ian said. He hadn't moved this much in...a long time.

He heard voices behind him. He saw two men pursuing him.

"Crap," he thought, "It looks like I have to do a change of plans. Here goes my cover..."

Ian jumped off the side of the wall, launching himself to the ceiling. Like a warrior from a Wuxia movie, he flipped, jumped off the wall, and landed in front of his quarry with both feet.

"Hello," he said, faking affableness, "I'll be taking him now."

He reached his hands towards his neck.

OOC: The thread flows much better with a designated GM.

Heh, guess that's me, then. Yeah, this is essentially a one-thread RP in all but name.

And Jesse's a man. Dunno if that was said before, just thought you'd like to know.

Cyrus's hand became covered in a shadowy haze, and he pinned Ian by the chest against the wall before he did anything. His brain would begin to feel hazy. His thoughts would grow wider and wider, until he was almost in a trancelike state.

It would keep him down for now.

[down] Well, what are you doing? Where is your character?

Shit!

He clumsily reloaded the gun, the former hostage's dead weight slowing his movements. He'd shot this asshole in the leg, how was he still moving? And who was the new guy?

He hurriedly loaded the magazine and readied the pistol, though he was loath to use it. This new one seemed to be on his side, or at least against his new enemy. Perhaps he could solve this with words instead. It was worth a try. But he'd have to be careful.

He kept his pistol hand steady and aimed at the newcomer. "Who are you? What is your intent?"
