Shinji walks up to the scene and looks around, sighing and leaning against a wall I wonder what's up this time...

Through the wall a finger pokes out and touches Shinji's shoulder. A strange echoing but familiar laughter can be heard from behind him before a shaky voice speaks. "Ya see that, Shinji?"

Shinji's eyes widen and he spins around to try and find the voice, trying to find what "that" was Eh!? Who's there? After a few seconds Shinji shakes his head and returns to his lean, just the wind, probably Damm, must be hearing things...

*A team of two Scorch titans and a Ion mechs patrols the streets hunting down their enemy* Scorch Pilot 1: Seen any mafia lately? Scorch Pilot 2: Since us arriving? *scoffs* All of them are all talk and no show.

Scorch Pilot 1: Hey Swisshelm, what's the plan? Scorch Pilot 2: Yeah we've been patrolling for four hours and it's time to hit the bunkers to rest. Lukas: Return back to base as I patrol, but make sure you resupply the food storages for the inhabitants. Don't want to start a uprising to fall upon us. *The two Scorch mechs returns to base as the Ion Pilot continues to walks about*

Suddenly A chill goes throughout the city of New Meridian. The dead begin rising from the ground and moaning incoherently. They remain neutral for the moment as they begin wandering around and searching for something. Up in the sky a girl can be seen surrounded with bony wings. Her eyes glow with red and her pupils are shaped like skulls. A blue flame flicker from her chest as her exposed ribcage can be seen of her back. She stares down upon the city before her voice echoes through the streets. A single phrase is uttered in a shout. "Where is Lorenzo?!?"

*the hatch of the Ion mech opens up and reveals of the pilot, face once handsome now scared with his fights with the mafia and limbs now cold with robotic parts and augments. His voice rung out with small bits of electricity and cold buzz* Lukas: Hoping you arrive. I'll contact the Recon Reapers to prepare for his... execution.

*Urumi with her mask on, watches whats going on from the rooftops*

Rises from the ground and looks around. Wait, why am I here?

Tatsuya wanders about the city streets, tch. Talk about some hunt, word on the street is that there's some girl with vast supernatural power running around killing a Mafia... Who knows if that's the truth, but he doesn't really have anything bett-. And as Tatsuya thinks to himself he's startled to see the dead rising up from their graves, well seems the stories were true after all. He'd simply look up at the floating girl in the sky and strike up a little talk with her. "Well looks like the rumors were true... Skullgirl was it!? How's it going lady, name's Tatsuya Suou and I'm a little curious why you're bringing the dead back from their graves and shouting about some guy! Suffice to say, if causing mass chaos and death is part of the plan... I'll have no choice but to step in, get where I'm coming from?"

It appears that Shinji had dosed off, however due to the chill he awakens, pulling out a large battle axe out from his coat and walking over, giving the girl an evil eye ... What's it to you? Look, I don't know who you are. But you don't exactly look like the kind of person I should just let go unless you give me a good reason.

*as cyborg titan pilot jumps back into his titan and leads the Skullgirl to Lorenzo, his phoenix Scorch-Mark lands on top of a lamp post as it looks at Tatsuya menacingly as it quietly hisses* Lukas: Come on Lich Queen, your old enemy is waiting.

Marie would fail to acknowledge the man in red as he is irrelevant to her goal. Rather she'd focus on the undead's search for the man known as Lorenzo. To her finding the man that turned her life into a living he'll was more important than anything. "Find Lorenzo! Bring him to me! He must pay!" The undead would seem to become more agressive in their search as they roam the streets freely. Though they seem to avoid anyone they run into on the street. The undead would eye the living with animosity though as if only being held back my Marie's will. Marie would stare down upon the titan and slowly approach it. "Bring me to Lorenzo. He must pay..."

Kotori finds herself in the streets, upon hearing the shout, She would look for the source and run into Tatsuya on the way Ah....... Red coat man......

*sighs and thinks "why not try to find his headquarters since that is where he would mostly** *Urumi just watches Marie*

Maya, seeing no development in the ongoing battle, decided to look elsewhere, keeping what transpired in her notes. If she could get a hold of a local, or perhaps someone affiliated with the organizations themselves it would be helpful. All she found were the walking dead, however. They seemed to not attack so Maya remained quiet for now. This scoop has turned into an even bigger incident, as usual. Eventually, she sees a peculiar looking girl standing, with Tatsuya and a man in a black coat and a titan(?) present. What on Earth? She approached the group with a smile. Well, it's a regular apocalypse as usual! But seriously, what the hell is happening?

"Huh... Such a dead cold reception Miss Skullgirl, and the weirdo with the robot's pet is trying to scare me too? Why if I didn't know any better I'd say you people are trying to get yourselves killed!" Flames dance around the man's back as he glares at all of them openly, subtlety clearly isn't getting him fucking anywhere at this point. So time for the stick. "I'm gonna ask it once Skullgirl. What in the hell do you plan to do once you're done with this witch hunt? Just gonna retire and leave people alone... Cause word is your kinda are driven to slaughter the living in their path, so I'm just a tad concerned about what happens after the foes you hunt are finished." Tatsuya would look over to Maya with a startled face, geez how in the hell has he missed her up to now? Tch, Skullgirl was pretty distracting. Either way, he'd focus again and do his best to explain what little he knows. "Honestly Maya, I'm trying to figure that out myself... But if what I know is right at all, I'd wager letting Miss Skullgirl over there do whatever she wants to isn't in anyone's best interests."

*the titan and his pilot returns as he presents the Skullgirl with Lorenzo who is hanging like a pinata* Lorenzo: Let me go! You already taken over my city! What do you want? Lukas: Someone from the grave is back to haunt you. *Lukas points to Marie where he starts struggling quicker* Lorenzo: You savage monster! You working with that freak of nature?!

Excuse me small child! Are you aware that it is quite RUDE to wake the dead? It was time for my beauty sleep, and when I climb into bed, suddenly I am rising from the ground here. Please do not summon the dead, that is my job... and at least I ask beforehand.

*Urumi just sighs* why is this my life *Thinks "I just want some peace without people yelling"*

[i]Marie stares at Lorenzo with a cold stare full of hatred. The once calm blue flame begins to turn to a crimson red and the bones begin floating around her in different form. Finally she holds a sharp lance made from the bones in one hand and throws it out. The sharp bone like structure floats around Lorenzo as if to merely threaten him at first.[/] "All the years...I've hunted you down. You may call me a monster but the only monster here is you! Any last words before I turn your life into the hell you made mine?"

Lukas: She's not the only one pissed, I lost a lot of good men due to your assassin friend Dahlia. So speak up punk. *Lorenzo grins at both of them as he spits at the pilot's visor* Lorenzo: Go to hell you two!

Kotori makes her way over to Tatsuya and Maya, trying not to bring too much attention to herself Uhh .... a-any idea what's going on here?

Tch, come Castor X. Shinjiro then pulls an evoker out from his coat and fires it at himself with speed, summoning a Knight on a horse in front of Lorenzo, defending him and pushing Marie away as Shinjiro walks up slowly Now let's not be so hasty. Before anyone is dying I want answers. *Shinji then looks at Maya and Kotori, replying to them without adding much else No idea. This girl just wanted to kill this guy.

*Urumi watches this happen and smiles thinks "Finally that bastard is going to die. I just wished I could at least talk to marie but everyone here keeps finding ways to distract her"* *Urumi looks at Shinjiro and thinks "NO, that bastard is going to ruin this whole thing then im going to have to after Lorenzo to capture him and let the skullgirl kill him"*

Oh, so that one is the one behind the summonings? She's kind of cute, like a doll! But I definitely can't let it slide if she's doing crazy stuff like this. Maya looks on at the scene Erm... It kinda feels like we'd be interrupting something though... As more strange folks come down on a helicopter, Maya shrugs at Tatsuya. Just like old times right?

A cluster of bone like apendages form out of Marie's back like the legs of a spider. The stab into Castor X all at once as they try to tear the entity apart. "STAY OUT OF MY WAY! YOU DON'T EVEN UNDERSTAND THE ATROCITIES THE MEDICI HAVE COMMITED!!!"

Tatsuya sighs as Apollo bursts out in a wave of flames and heat, the Persona rushing to stand beside Shinji's own as Tatsuya gives the SEES member a nod. "I believe I asked you a simple question, yet for some insufferable reason you refuse to answer it. My name is Tatsuya Suou, I kill demons, mad mages, lunatics with the blessings of dark gods, and anything else that may pop up to threaten mankind... I am currently trying to discern if you happen to be among those ranks, and your refusing to speak with me is doing you no favors. Simply put, I require answers before I can allow any death to take place," A silver revolver with the word obey written upon it's barrel forms in his hands, not pointed at anyone yet. But nevertheless the message should be fairly clear if those watching aren't utter fools. As Marie begins to attack however the reply forming on his lips dies, Apollo sends a spiraling beam of flames into Marie's path as it glares under the mask. Tatsuya himself would begin firing off Light enchanted rounds into the back of the girl's chest. "It does indeed seem to be like old times yes! People attacking without even bothering to fucking explain themselves and here I am just trying to keep the world from going right to hell... Why is this our life Maya! Seriously, just once I'd like to meet you and not have madness happen!"

*Urumi slowly takes out a knife and gets ready to throw it at anyone who tries to stop whats going on*

The spider limbs scratch at the knight but don't seem to deal much to the persona, just messing up its shiny armor. While she does this Shinji pulls his beanie over his eyes and sighs Yeah, unless you've got some magic that ain't working. I've got a hard head. Sure I don't understand. That's why I want answers, so until you give me some. I'm not letting you kill him

Well, might as well get things started then! It's whoopass time! Maya rushes in, looking excited as she summons Artemis, who uses Bufudyne on Marie.

*the pilot simply laughs of the uncaged anger and insanity* Lukas: Like what the girl saids, he's a crime lord, a killer, and kingpin to a evil race of animals. And I am Frontier Militia pilot, my job is to put the dogs like him DOWN! Lorenzo: You there! Kid with the beanie, help me get down!

What is this absolute chaos? Ugh. Kotori swings her blade sending a sharp wave of wind at Lorenzo's rope, cutting him down Red wants you safe. Guess that's how I'll help.

*Urumi jumps down from the building throwing a knife at Lorenzo's leg*

Lorenzo: AUGH! CUT the rope, not my leg you idiots! *as Lorenzo runs away, the pilot starts his Flatline ar and begins shooting at Urumi as his Ion titan fires a heavy plasma laser at her*

Shinji sighs again at the pilot, at this point his beanie is almost suffocating him Fair point. But shouldn't you soldier types be bringing him into jail or something? He isn't exactly struggling now is he? Why would you approve of his execution? Shinji then eyes Lorenzo, shrugging at his request Now why would I do that? I'm only protecting you till I get some answers straight. Not my responsibility what happens next. Shinji then sees Lorenzo run away, putting away his weapons and dismissing his persona Well no use now...

*Urumi keeps throwing knifes at Lorenzo legs to make sure that he was not going to go anywhere, Urumi dodges the laser*

"If that's the case turn him into the fucking cops then, listen I'm not exactly wanting to kill anyone here. Just because he's a fucking crime lord doesn't mean you should tear a city to bits and act as his an executor because of it... So, I'm a little curious why this needs to be a murder, but sure I'll hear ya out. Just stop attacking and we'll do the same." Tatsuya looks around at the rest of them, annoyed at how quickly things have been moving and not exactly feeling like letting this keep up when he originally came to ask a few questions. "I don't think anything we can't move past has happened, right everyone?"

Lukas: HEY masked girl! He got a bounty of 50k credits over his head, and I am not willing to give it up!!! *he throws timed explosive darts at Urumi's area hoping one will tag her*

.............. Did I make a mistake? She looks completely baffled, looking to Tatsuya for confirmation

Im not trying to kill him, im trying to stop him from getting away! *Urumi gets hit by 2 darts* and do you think the cops will just take him in and its over no! he can bribe the cops to letting him go!!

OOC: http://i0.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/original/000/988/888/490.jpg

*he attempts to get up but the knives prevents it* Lorenzo: The I pay the cops to do what ever I want! It's the reason why I payed them to beat up that stupid nose digging COP! Lukas: Now they won't help you this time!

what the fuck

OOC: I agree with Maire entirely, let us all pretend this never happened and just go on with our night.

OOC: How about we just restart the rp?

A mysterious man in a black and green trench coat arrives on the scene in a fade similar to static on a TV. "Once again there is no order. There is a certain need for order before judgement is passed." Masamune surveys the crowd, searching for the loudest of the bunch, his eyes rest on the man with a knife through his leg. "Oh? I see that our mutual friend has once again been acting without consequence. This won't do at all." He depresses two buttons on his belt, chuckling coldly. [PAUSE] [Hero: TATSUYA!] [Yadda yadda za warudo don't move unless you're special jokes on you you're only special if my dice says so. Or just pass on your specialty to someone else.] Masamune grabs Lorenzo by the arm, if nobody stops him, he'd continue walking away, putting an end to this madness.

Lukas: Screw this Heading back to base! *he simply phases out to think of a new tactic*

*Nopes out of here*

...My father is a retard. Good to know. *teleports away* AND DON'T SUMMON THE DEAD AGAIN *shakes fist at Marie despite teleporting away*
