Cell Block Tango

"What's that package?!" The Rig asked, rattling her cuffs. She'd comply, sure, gift horses and all, it was just weird that they'd cover for prisoners, or even think that a hitter was coming for them. "There's no way you people are really cops." She decided aloud. "Whose outfit are you really with?"

Magpie & Trickster—Police Station

Magpie and Trickster leapt back outside just as an explosion erupted behind them. The blast scorched their backs.

Magpie had a few chunks missing in her back that pulsed red, but Trickster's wounds glowed yellow. It seemed to be some kind of energy.

They groaned in pain, but struggled to stand up.

"She...she got away..." Magpie gasped.

"So she—did—And we can't get back inside. So we'll—wait for her to come—back out," Trickster ground out.

They limped to the opposite curb and sat on it. The wounds pulsed and began to close up. Oddly enough, their clothing seemed to mend too (probably because it was made of the same energy that composed the two Emotional Embodiment Entities).

"The pleasure is all ours," Jumping Bean bowed to Arkhiel, and her friends did likewise. "Fellow servant of the Heavens."

"I do believe we have to interrogate the Nazis today, unless that has to wait...?" she asked.

Well, get far enough away from the little bouncing brat, and her ability fades...good to know.

Finally within reach, she readied one of her little surprises.

...And promptly saw the cell was empty.

"Well, this complicates matters."


JFI

Ryan crossed his arms in front of his chest, remembering the brawl and the introduction to a number of the others present that ensued. He honestly looked forward to tossing the Nazis around a bit more.

However that was when the main computer reported, Communications with the police station the members of "Cosmos For Humanity" are being held at have been severed under suspect circumstances. Foul play suspected.

Ryan promptly stated, "We gotta head over there - sounds shady as fuck, and I'm not good with just sitting around."

“Around... what do you humans use to count time again– oh, right. About...” she murmured, mentally counting up the years on her appendages. “...3,500 BC, I'd say...”

She tilted her head. “Why? Have I missed much?”

She seemed to jump a little with surprise at the doors opening, but immediately tried to hide it with a clear of her throat. Despite the fact she didn't breathe. Nonetheless, she hastily stepped out and looked around the meeting room in muted curiosity.

“Oh. Are we late?”

"If you say so." If Setsuko wasn't concerned about her boyfriend, then she guessed she shouldn't have been worried. Though maybe it was more her own past relationships that made her a bit leery. Seriously, the next time someone turned on a laser pointer because they thought it was cute, they'd be getting their darned wrist broken.

"Anyway, yeah, the food's pretty awesome. They've got some really tasty catfish. I don't know what they use in the seasoning or breading but it's pretty lit." She looked at the menu. "Though I think I'm more in the mood for some wings. Want to share?"

"Uh...that's definitely a loaded question, that may be for another ti-"

Ding.

Well! Here we go! First meeting as a new hero, and the first meeting with the rest of his group! This was excited, this was so-

Oh. Are we late?

-GOD FUCKING DAMMIT.Every damn time with this! This big dramatic entrance he had planned and of course they either weren't there, or they were being beaten up! Man, Masked Fighter Genesis wasn't ever going to get a breakout deal at this rate!? Did they actually miss the meeting!?

He looked at his watch and took the time (no they weren't late so everyone else was lone because of COURSE the sporadic scientist and alien goo girl were the fashionably EARLY) so, thankful she didn't see his stumble, he cleared his throat and pointed to the ceiling.

"We're likely early. All the more reason to show our conviction if we're the first ones here! We can show them our ambition...and then some!"

Gotta keep that pep up. It'd been helping in the meantime.

"Besides! This gives us some time to talk, plan, and form a strategy! Of what, I'm not sure! But our main goal is gonna be trying to convince them to let you in as well!"

This hero thing would be much, much better if he had Ty beside him, he found himself thinking. Weird, right?

Alice – Kitty Café

The door of the establishment opened with a jingle; a petite young girl in long-outmoded clothing cautiously peering inside. With an air of trepidation, she pushed the heavy (or at least to her) door as far as she could manage with her shoulder before slipping in, clutching a rather mangy looking cat in her arms with an overall air of possessiveness and desperation. Already looking overwhelmed by the interior, she hastily stepped towards the nearest clear corner table—breathing a sigh as she sat herself down and let the cat slip out of her grasp and onto the floor.

She straightened her dress, looking severely uncomfortable and more than a little shaky. She looked as if she'd only just woken up and was desperately trying to hide it for whatever reason. The cat (which again, was so thin it was frankly impossible for it to be this sprightly under normal circumstances) sat upon her feet and curled its tail around her ankles—its face marred by an unnatural and disturbingly humanlike grin. It scanned the environment as its mistress resisted drumming her fingers against the table above, before locking its slitted eyes onto Fiona and purring appreciatively.

And audibly.


Tyulla – JFI

“Right,” Tyulla flatly stated with a roll of her eyes, crossing her arms again and walking out into the room. “Alright then. How are we going to do that? I... already told you what I'm... what I was like just this morning. That's not exactly going to be the best first impression, is it?” she questioned, turning to look at him with a pointed expression.

Then she sighed.

“Alright, fine... just... I'll humour you. What were you thinking? Because something tells me you're the pure type who doesn't want to be dishonest. And... really, I don't want to either. But it's up to you. I'm their loose cannon right now, and... I don't think I have any idea what to say in my defense.”

She looked a little lost again now, but managed to keep the majority of her focus. If she could take back her entire life up until this point she would have. But it wasn't as easy as that. She'd done regrettable things, and now she was paying for it. Everything else from here on out would be made much more difficult because of it.

And really, part of her wouldn't have it any other way.

Kitty Cafe

As Fiona waited for Setsuko's response, she couldn't help but notice that a purple cat — no, not one of the waitresses, an actual bonafide cat — was staring at her intently. And purring like a motorboat. Not to mention grinning like a maniac. As far as she knew that wasn't something normal cat were supposed to do, but she supposed stranger things had happened. In any event, he hoped he wasn't into her. It wouldn't have been the first time, much to her displeasure. Despite what some believed, cats and cat-people didn't really mix. Still, for now she decided to ignore him. Besides, it wasn't as though she was the only game in town. There were several cat people serving as waitresses as well as a number of other normal cats sitting around like they owned the place. With any luck its' interest would turn to any of the other kitties in the establishment soon enough.

"Oh yeah, wings sound awesome. You like 'em spicy or mild? I like 'em hot, myself." She grinned, but then noticed Fiona's gaze. Following it to the source of the purring noise, Setsuko gasped slightly at the oddly grinning cat.

"Aw, look at the silly kitty." Setsuko cooed. She leaned down in her chair, making a small beckoning motion with her hand. "Here kitty kitty. C'mere and let me pet you."

Her tail flicked slightly in happiness. She loved animals.

"Mild I guess, but that's hot for me. My tastebuds are kind of... sensitive. But I guess we can order half and half." She then noticed Setsuko gesturing for the purple cat to come over. She wasn't sure why, but somehow she knew this was a bad idea. "Hey, Setusko, maybe that isn't such a good idea. Just, something doesn't feel right. I can sense when something's off, and that cat is definitely off."

Alice – Kitty Café

The cat let out an oddly human sounding chuckle, and after a brief look up at his mistress he shrugged his bony shoulders lightly and lazily stalked over to the table where the other animal woman was beckoning him—long claws clicking against the floor in a manner that almost seemed to suggest he was walking on them alone. He soon made it there and promptly rubbed his head against Setsuko's hand—purring affectionately before suddenly staring straight up at her.

“You do know how to treat a cat, you know that? Look at them. Flocking to you.”

His rich, British baritone abruptly switched places as the feline seemed to unmake itself from right underneath her hand—now situated on the table in front of them and peering down at their dinners curiously.

“And how nice it is to see the animal kingdom has upgraded from their savagery. Here I was thinking the only intellectuals I'd find in beastkind would be in the land of dreams!”

He glanced about the rest of the room as he said this; ignorant of Alice's desperate whispering for him to return as he sent the waitresses a wink. “But enough of that. Need information, I'm afraid. For her benefit, more than I. Though I have been... neglectful...” he purred as he raised a single claw over to his mistress—not even looking in her direction. “Do help the poor girl out, would you? Lost and hurting, she is. Mad as a hatter, too. Doesn't even know I speak. Probably thinks she's dreaming. But do not tell her otherwise. For your own sakes, hmm~?”

Ryan turned and looked when the elevator opened, despite the information that had just been shared, and brightened a bit when he saw it was Mason and the goo girl from earlier. Tell the truth he'd been a little worried about those two - he'd wondered how they'd handle that huge clusterfuck down there.

"Hey, welcome to the club!"

"Not gonna be the best first impression, no, I'll give you that but that won't matter! We're here to make a hero out of you and I'll fight tooth and nail to make sure it happens!"

Her tone was sullen and doubtful, and that's why he needed to do as much as he could to fight off that lingering feeling of doubt.He'd found, in his time, that people in their own little corner of self doubt and lingering issues of self-esteem being questioned, someone with the opposite attitude is what killed the thoughts before.

He'd learned from the best after all.

"Look." His tone went softer as he let the fiery ambition leave him for a moment and he smiled at her, a little bit more of a friendly one than one trying to be inspiring. "I said I was gonna help you. I wouldn't just bring you here and leave you to falter and not have something planned. I have a few ideas, and I know a few people who would want that much power on their team immediately. If they ask, we'll tell them. If not, well, they don't need to know. It's gonna work out, promise. I have a way of making things work like that. Trust me." He winked at her. "I'm not gonna let my first friend suffer like that."

"Oh!" he said with a grin and two finger salute off his forehead. "Hey there, Ryan! Good to see ya, good to see ya. This is Ty! She'd like to join the JFI!"

Tyulla fell silent.

“...If you say so...”

Ding. And then they were there. Tyulla gave a wordless nod of greeting towards Ryan and the others as they stepped towards them, inwardly mulling over Mason's words in her head. She still felt taken aback by his perseverance. It was admirable. It made her feel... strange. Accepted. Maybe even special, in some ways. It was an unfamiliar feeling, but she liked it.

“If you'd have me, of course,” she eventually shrugged, breaking out of her thoughts and looking up at them. “You. You hold yourself powerfully. Ryan, was it?” she questioned, locking her eyes on the latter and looking him up and down. “Well, perhaps this'll be easier then. Good to meet you,” she sighed—finally seeming to relax her stance a little and nodding to them.

Ryan nodded and put his hands behind his neck as regarded the goo girl, "Uhh...yeah, yeah I do." He did admit it was good to have these two onboard instead of having Ty out there doing reckless stuff by herself. "...And I think it won't be much of a problem—-"

The computer at the center of the room promptly seemed to take in the new entries and ran some data. Then it announced outloud, Ty is eligible and accepted into the Justice Force International.

Jeff however brought up what was announced earlier by the machine, "And uhh, hate to break up the introductions but it sounds like we may have some trouble. The comp just said that communications were cut with the police station those Nazi Nitwits were being held at..."

Correct, Blazeforce. The last communication involved deployment to the Justice Force International press briefing, then silence.


Stelmaria - Empty Station

Well, without anything to really do here, Stelmaria decided to head out the same door that the weird, heavily armed cops did. She promptly snuck out, wondering where they'd taken their prisoners. There was the fact they'd taken her targets, but right now she needed to figure out what just happened in a more secure location.

Thus, before long, she ran off from the location.

Fiona blinked before pinching herself. She had to make sure she wasn't dreaming. Though if the sudden titch of pain she just experienced was any indication, she wasn't. This was a talking cat. Not a cat person. An actual talking cat. And it could teleport. For some reason.

It was as she wondered whether or not she should call somebody that the wheels began turning in her brain. A purple cat. A purple talking cat. 'Mad as a hatter'. And a little girl wearing a Victorian dress. It shouldn't have been possible, and yet.

"Yeah, sure. By the way, your name wouldn't be Chesire, would it? Chesire cat? Just curious."

Magpie & Trickster—Police Station

"I don't think she's coming out from this end. Maybe she escaped through one of the side doors," Magpie guessed.

"Forget it. We have to find out what those bombs were. I doubt that just anyone can make and sell those," Trickster responded, glaring at the fallen ceiling's ruins distrustfully while leaning on their staff.

"You're saying we investigate first? But...Fine..." Magpie agreed at length, pondering the strange turn of events. At least they still had the folders of evidence.

The pair walked off, intent on handing the folders off to some other, less bedeviled police station.

"What are we waiting for? We need to go investigate," stated Red Tiger, gesturing to the pair of metal claw gauntlets sheathed and hanging from his backpack by some string.

"My falchions are ready," Black Wolf said, patting said blades at his side. "I'm ready if you are."

"You heard the fellows. Let's go," Jumping Bean said, covering her mouth with a sleeve as she wondered just what kind of plot was affecting the city.


Wilma Printer—Kitty Cafe

Mom and Dad needed to take the money Ial had given her to hire a lawyer to defend their case. That was fine with Wilma, who had spent the better part of the morning scrubbing odd eye-symbol graffiti off of the Library's outer walls.

Now that she was done, she had free time! And what better place to spend it than at the Kitty Cafe?

She entered the door, sat down, and ordered a vanilla milkshake. Then she straightened her newspaper hat and opened up a sketchbook to begin working on its contents.

Oddly enough, as she outlined the figures, sparks flew from her fingertips and the outlined figures began waving on the page, moving around to help Wilma fill them in with color and details.

Wilma herself seemed not to notice her hands sparking, and smiled indulgently and somewhat dreamily at her drawings. "Ah, you..." she murmured fondly at her works.

Ryan immediately concurred with the Wuxia Crew, "Yeah, it's a little too suspicious this happened right when the attention was on the big announcement, and right after those fascist fucks got arrested..."

The computer promptly announced, Transport Vehicles are on Bottom Floor 1 if members need them. Sending location of the police station to your comms systems.

Ryan promptly took out his communicator card and it created a little mini-map hologram depicting the location of the police station involved.

The same would be available to everyone with one of the communicators - and it would be obvious they had quite a few open and available for use on the 11th Floor in case anyone present did not have a communicator yet.

Arkhiel found himself evaluating Tyulla, he got a very disconcerting feeling from her, but right now he needed to focus on the action at hand instead of suspicions and distrust.

Red Tiger and Black Wolf nodded to each other and went down to Floor 1 to get to the ground transportation.

Each readied their weapons once they had boarded, and Jumping Bean was ready to follow when they moved out.

Alice – Kitty Café

“Cheshire, my dear,” The Cat corrected, grinning ever wider as he lowered his head in a mock bow. “Though friends call me Chess. Or ‘brute’. Or ‘that blasted cat’. Or even ‘that mangy cretin’, if you'll pardon my French. Settle with Cheshire. Safest bet, I find...” he trailed off, looking to the side in thought. “And I suppose old Dodgson got his manuscript published, then... I had a feeling, but I never suspected it'd be known in this part of the world...”

He cleared his throat, gesturing airily with his paw.

“Anyway. Nice to know I'm known. And I suppose you know dear Alice as well. Or at least that iteration of her. I think you'll find she's quite different now,” he stated, glancing back at the Victorian girl just as she was curiously staring at the one in the paper hat. The sparks had caught her attention. How wonderful.

He chuckled, and carried on.

“Oh, you have no idea. Truly, you don't. Many questions, hmm? How we're both here, how I'm functioning... really, I don't mind attention. Feel free. I'll try not to confuse you~!”

Well, he undoubtedly expected questions. But one got a hint of pride from him. He wasn't exactly helping the cat stereotypes by any means. In fact, he seemed to revel in it.

On the Road - Suspicious Police Officers

"Contraband," the female officer said plainly. "Gotta do something with your shit before we get the paperwork to send it to central... Teeechnically the guns we're using now are contraband too, but-"

At the point in her explanation, the massive explosion took out the lobby entrance to the police station, shaking the van as it drove off towards some unknown destination.

"...we had a hunch we might need them." Picking up the radio and turning on the sirens, the officer informed the radio, "Easton Western HQ under attack from unknown assailant, woman, heavily armed with explosives. Moving contraband and prisoners to a more secure location - over."


Easton Western Police Headquarters, Back Exit

Watching Stelmaria leave, one particular officer was considering firing at her - but decided he didn't want the attention of a grenadier. Instead, he snuck back inside - it was the same officer who had been firing on Stelmaria not more than a few moments ago, having gotten the hell out of dodge at the beeping grenade-shaped grenade. Picking up his own radio he called out on the police chatter, "Subject has just fled Easton Western Police HQ, last seen heading down 7th Street. Advise extreme caution - like hell I'm going after her to get blown up too."


Somewhere, Everywhere, Nowhere - The One-Eyed King

At the public library, several eyes washed away from existence, blinded and soon erased. No matter, the symbol of the One-Eyed King was making its mark all over town, Cascade spreading the King's watchful gaze on the city evermore at moments they themselves could slip by unnoticed. The King's focus instead circled at and around a certain particular police station, from which Stelmaria had fled one way, her followers and potential recruits another. It was not in their plans to vacate the Neo-Nazis and Rig from there but the chaos of Stelmaria's attack was the perfect opportunity to seize - the prisoners would disappear along with supervillain contraband and there was a convenient target to blame.

Next, the One-Eyed King's thousand eyes turned towards the JFI...


Conveniently at the Kitty Cafe - Ial "Thespian" Lesson

Ial did not let Alice and her fellow feline go unnoticed as he received his order of tiger and spider roll sushi. The former thespian, current Thespian, took a piece from both and sampled them before nodding satisfactorily and picking up his plate, sliding it over next to the dazed and confused young woman who seemed unsure of where or when she was.

Curiouser and curiouser.

"How cruel, strangers and servers averting their gaze from a child in need of aid. Here - a small meal to tide you over." Beat. "...there is a certain etiquette in how to eat that, but I suppose it can wait for now."

Alice – Kitty Café

The girl blinked into awareness at the sight of the Thespian, staring at him for a prolonged period of time with a look of what seemed to be slowly dawning realisation. Her dress seemed to steadily stain over with bright colours—dull brown and dirtied cream bleeding into a pleasant light blue and a stark white—before she politely cleared her throat and delicately picked one of the sushi rolls up.

“Quite. I'm aware of some etiquette, so I hope it will suffice. I very much thank you, dear sir—I was quite famished!” she nodded with a polite smile as she took an experimental bite of the thing. “Hmm. An acquired taste, I feel. Thankfully I believe I've just acquired it. Forgive my abruptness, but would you mind awfully telling me your name? I'd much rather thank you personally over just ‘sir’, you see...”

Any sense of the lost little girl was gone in favour of a proper young lady with a distinct air of detachment. She looked around with what could only be described as ‘disinterested interest’—that is, half-lidded but thorough nonetheless. And Ial was now the subject of it.


Tyulla – JFI

“You go on ahead. I'll catch up,” Tyulla dismissed with a wave, moving to look about curiously at the room. “I'll just take a look around for a little while. Think about things. Thank you,” she added as an afterthought, smiling at him. “You're very considerate.”

She turned away after that, probably to hide the fact her grin was broadening out of fondness.

“Go on then, ‘hero’. Have fun. Help people. You're good at that. I know that firsthand now.”


Goldrush – Outside JFI

“Annnd here we are. Sorry I kept you out so long. The muggings roll into each other after a while you know...” Daniel chuckled weakly as he set Su down, before hastily clearing his throat and clapping his hands as he backed away slowly. Okay! Well, good luck anyway! Go uh... kick ass as a team or... whatever you guys do...!”

He bumped into a car as he reached the other side of the street, and jumped as the alarm set off. He sighed, palming his face as he gave her a short salute.

“Ugh. Anyways, good luck out there. Keep in touch, alright? It was great having you out there with me today!”

His aura flared with a crescendoing, piercing whistle, and he shot off—tearing up the concrete a little beneath his feet and disturbing the peace with his intense backdraft. A moment later, a bird fell from a nearby tree—smouldering and twitching on the now-scalding tarmac.

Then the tree burst into flames.

It seemed like Daniel's awkwardness overrode his sense of self control.

JFI On The Move

The same ceiling window that opened to let Arkhiel in promptly opened again, and the Angel flied out first, followed by Jeff jetting out using streams of fire after leaping up.

The flaming hero found himself looking down - and almost stopped out of sheer awe. He was looking down from the eleventh floor of a building, dressed in his hero gear, and off to investigate mysterious happenings at a police station. Just ten hours ago, he was living out of an apartment with his best friend. It almost amazed him how much things could change...

He then kept flying, never look back. Always look forward. You're born weak and you ideally die old and weak, but its what you do in between those states that defines you.

Back in the building, Ryan was getting ready to fly off when he looked back at Tyulla for a moment. He thought on why she asked him about that, but figured that was something to be explored later. Taking a jump, he leaped up and out the window above, and promptly deployed streaks of energy from his hands as he started flying toward the station.

Ryan started humming something under his breath as he flew alongside his friends.

"Listen." The Rig leaned her head against the median bars between the back and the drivers' seat. She had a chance to move here, just like in the museum. Maybe she could buy herself some time. "I can help you out. My armor is in that case. I've got some serious hardware at Sanderssen Storage on Third. This is going to get some serious people on our asses and I think you need The Twosome. It's a nasty pickup truck and if I can get a gunner, maybe an officer to hold me in check and make sure I don't cut and run, we can turn this around."
