Puzzling Out The Situation

"Well, it would distract the Fathom..."

"Seven is here too, dressed like the concept of choosing clothes that look nice together was an arcane secret far beyond their grasp."

Plan A.

Quickly counting and making a mental check that all of them had at least gotten out of the flooding room for the time being, James was thankful they'd gotten out of their current predicament, only for things to look...far worse.

That...kid who'd shown up was partially to blame. Creating some sort of gap...portal thing and moving Grimm and water easily. He could only wince at the guards getting sent flying...

...damnit. Don't know if we'll be able to help them...if not...hopefully that...impact was enough to make it quick and painless...drowning or Grimm are far worse ways to...

Glancing at his team, with Gage looking annoyed and Fe thinking...Dia was having quite the panic attack as he lightly shook her shoulder.

"...deep breaths. We're not...in a critical situation yet. Keep calm...alright? That 'Chris' isn't going to hurt you. ...I promise, so...keep a level head, okay?"

The leader glanced at the vents and then the doctor in charge. "R-Right, while going through those v-vents is a good idea, if you've got a map, blueprints, anything...to tell us where we're going so we...don't end up in an already flooded room, or whatnot."

Of course, with the suggestions of high voltage and frying the Grimm, James nodded in agreement.

"Only thing I h-have to add is, well, depending on where we cut the power, we might...have a blackout on o-our hands. I mean, that's preferable compared to drowning and Grimm, it just might make navigating a bit more...difficult." He mused, blinking at Marvin volunteering...with Suzune and Sam joking.

"W-W-Well, we'd p-probably have the m-means to get you out. And I-I mean, even if it isn't enough t-to kill them, stunning t-those Grimm could buy us a fair bit of time..."

Hope you weren't expecting anything witty here. Maybe some day.

Dia was still rather visibly shaken while James had told her to calm down. "I just... in the event that we may have to fight it... how am I supposed to keep calm like this?"

This was her team leader reassuring her, though. This alone managed to get through to her a bit, and Dia calmed down slightly.

Dia was slightly interested when the others came up with the idea to shock the Grimm. From the notes she had taken down, it had shown that Knifehead and Fathom would stay away from Gigabolt thanks to its shocking abilities. Maybe it could work on them.

Of course, this wouldn't do much to the Gigabolt. After all, having some kind of electrical attack to use underwater with oneself in the same area would also mean that it would need the Required Secondary Power of high electrical resistance.

For those who are attempting to shock the Grimm, pray that you aren't against the Gigabolt. After all, having electrical abilities underwater also warrants an high resistance to electricity (but not immunity) as a Required Secondary Power.

James gave a silent sigh and tried to smile. "Y-You're part of a team, remember? And i-it'll have to go through me before I l-let it even think of trying to attack you."

The youth nodded, trying to look a bit optimistic. "B-Besides, b-beating it means it won't bother you e-ever again, right?"

Dia felt slightly more relieved. "Thanks, James. You'll be here to protect me... And if we beat it... yeah... hopefully, if it doesn't get away."

Aquarium: Not Everyone Needs to Fight

"Bloody great. This has to happen now?" snarled Lena, worry and anger on her face. She also couldn't believe these idiots, running off to fight without a care for the civilians. They weren't the only people in the damn aquarium.

"Q! R! With me! Leave the fighting to the others, there's more than enough of them." she called to her team, activating her Semblance, using it to see through walls to find trapped people and possible escape routes.

"Rescue duty, come on! First, let's get the unconscious guards out of here."

Diana had a resolute look on her face. "People will need medical attention. I'm staying here."

Beth walked up to Marvin and patted her nephew on the head. "Don't worry about anything. You know, I'm your teacher and your aunt. If anyone is going to fight, it's me."

Briefly glancing at Lena barking out orders and deciding to pick the grimoire on uninteresting marine life as his weapon of choice he considered his team's conversation and couldn't honestly tell if they were being serious.

Raggy didn't consider himself a smart person, but if Marvin really had such power, throwing him in there without the guards rescued and civilians evacuated seemed like a really dumb idea.

"Before we proceed with the Grimm, we have to make sure that everybody else has been evacuated, the guards included." He took a deep breath before focusing his eyes on Doc Lightyears. "Doctor, is there some sort of phone upstairs here to make sure everybody is out of the aquarium?" Then, to Lena. "As much as we need to rescue them, we have to find a way to keep the Grimm contained within as few rooms as possible, so that by rescuing them we don't endanger anyone who can still be in here."

"E-Exactly. But l-let's focus on getting everyone o-out of here before everything e-ends up getting flooded and...w-well, don't want a-anyone getting turned into G-Grimm food."

With Lena shouting at the top of her lungs, the boy winced, partially from her voice, partially from the flat-footed Doctor being oblivious to his request for a map or the like which would make navigating the Aquarium far easier.

Of course, with Diana speaking up and looking determined, James bit his lip, trying not to panic.

"I-It's not safe h-here, D-Diana. We can b-bring you i-injured people no p-problem, but you need t-to get somewhere w-where you won't be i-in danger..."

Lena nodded at her boyfriend, Semblance flared as she looked through the walls of the Aquarium.

"That's what I'm looking for, Raggy. A safe route. You think you can handle the Grimm, keep them busy while my team does the evac?"

Diana shook her head. "My sister is here. You're here. I'm not going anywhere." She glared at him stubbornly.

Rokoko turned on Lena, her eyes wide and challenging, "You-! Wha-!? Not-! But-! Gah!"

I am a warrior! I am supposed to be FIGHTING!

Oh my Gaia, dad would smack me silly if he heard me say that.

I wanna KILL IT!

Rescuing civvies seems pretty much up there with my job description.

RIP! MAIM! KILL!

Better get to it.

Rokoko clutched her head, "Ugh! Yes, yeah, okay!"

James caved in slightly, looking even more concerned and distressed.

"T-That's besides t-the point, if we h-have to go help people g-get out of here or fend of Grimm, y-you're going to be left o-on your own. ...And I don't w-want you getting hurt."

"Certainly." Giving Rokoko a small shake to snap her out of the funk he gestured to the rest of his team. "Ladies and Marvin: once Lena's team moves out, we're stalling the Grimm found there. Until the guards have been pulled out of the danger zone, do not attempt to fight them. We're gonna be acting like a wall."

Dia had been listening to the others and their strategy for solving this huge problem.

Having lived her life in luxury and shelter, Dia never knew about what kind of evacuative measures to do in this kind of emergency. She had hoped that this would work, and in the meantime consulted her team leader for actions, in a less worried tone.

"We can get through this, James... but what do we do now, leader?"

"Alright, where go first?" Quartz asked Lena, looking around as he tried to figure out where to go. Indeed, the doors they just closed behind them didn't seem like an ideal route, considering the flooding and the escaping Grimm.

Fe walks up to Diana, in a second she slaps the dumb cat across the face."We can't fight if we protecting the medic", Fe calmly stated.

Fe then turn to James, "Your point man, boss! What the plan?". Fe took short breath as she looked around the room. She was kinda jealous of the other team at this point. Of one they didnt have a dumb cat slowing them down, two they had gotten use to their jobs.

Zoe was definitely concerned now. Not only was there one Grimm on the loose, there were three Grimm on the loose and also some cyan-haired dudeass who can do friggin' portals and stuff.

"If you guys built this place without proper drains for flooding then you really had this coming. Or at least something similar but not involving Grimm. Like a shark breakout." surprised

It's clearly a case of backroom political albumizing.

Tactics Time.

James folded his arms and closed his eyes, mind racing with all of the possibilities...options...plans on how they were going to deal with their current predicament as he exhaled and looked at Dia.

"...Well, I trust Ragg-...Ragna and his team to defend Le...Sis and her team without any effort. Rescuing the...personal on these floors, we can leave to them. If you ask me...Team MISN is probably...the most mobile out of all of us...meaning they could cover more ground and with Suzune, I'd say...they could probably find the best rooms to electrify. The Grimm could get thinned...considerably, or at least stunned long enough so we could retreat to a better position..."

A loud slap brought him out of his thought process, wondering what exactly had gotten whacked with that much force...and noticed what Fe had just done.

"F-Fe! T-That was c-completely u-uncalled f-for...I m-mean, y-yes, you might h-have a point, b-but that was j-just too far...!" He flinched, bright red from embarrassment, looking a bit cross and trying to keep his cool.

His attitude had taken a shot as he sighed and tried to get back on track.

"A-As for what w-we should do...we can e-either help t-those in the upper part g-get out to safety or either g-getting the Grimm distracted...luring them t-to where Suzune and Isabelle are going t-to send...a lot of v-voltage. I know one of u-us would prefer running, but I t-think we might have to stand our ground."

Hope you weren't expecting anything witty here. Maybe some day.

Dia then realized what she was going to have to do. The Fathom did prefer her as a target over anybody else. He really just wanted to finish the meal that escaped him, after all.

...She would have to become bait for it, if that's what it meant.

Dia turned towards James with some apprehension and some confidence. "Do I have much choice? Maybe... it's time for me to face my fears. Sounds like a good plan, leader."

She turns towards Fe with an angry expression on her face. Seeing the Fox girl attempt to slap the cat girl just like that got Dia angry and actually shouting. "Now is not the time to antagonize the others, Fe!"

"I'd recommend you all split into 3 groups of 8.", the doctor said. "We've already got people helping the civilians out of here, so focus on taking care of those Grimm for now."

Iris was shaking as she took out her drone and wand, nervous and a little bit scared. She looked at her girlfriend, her gaze silently asking if she was ready.

Aquarium of Vale - Grimm Tanks

"I say we get to the Grimm," Gage, who had taken a seat, piped up. His knee was bouncing up and down, a clear sign of impatience. "People are gonna be afraid and attracting the Grimm, right? Take on the Grimm, we solve the problem in a heart beat."

The countdown was moving far too slowly for Gage's liking.

Dia had heard the doc's words. Everybody is going to focus on the Grimm. Dia then nervously spoke up to her team...

"Team... I might have to be the lure for the Fathom... would you guys mind?"

"You're not going to face that thing alone," Gage said flatly. "Unless I didn't read something, Beacon works on the buddy system."

His arms curled over the back of his purloined chair, he eyed Dia coolly. "Anything that involves you and bait, I'm going along." Something in his tone said he wouldn't listen to any further discussion.

Dia then gave a slightly worried smile to Gage. But with a lot of the worry gone, thanks to the delinquent backing her up.

"Thanks for joining me on this, Gage. We'll do this together... As a team."

Lena frowned, looking around with her Semblance. "There's a backway here...in the opposite direction. We can loop around using that, dive into the water and get the victims out. Diana would probably need to do CPR for them, because even with the Grimm distracted, they're still underwater. We have to move fast."

Diana caught that slap. Easily. In fact, she didn't even look at Fe.
