We don't have a log for what happened so far, BUT I will tell you like a boss.

Right, so Aidric, Noah and Clara are sneaking through the vents of Geraldi corporation, having gotten a map and a variety of other information from some MC sympathizers. Their current plan: To get to the stage where the anti-MC public service announcement is being shot and TAKE THAT SHIT OVER. Unfortunately, the Elite had captured the MC sympathizers and horrible interrogation had taken place, meaning XIII had been called in along with Vincent, Gaberiel and Valentine. All four of the Elite split up to search for our heroes, but it was Val who spotted them. Cue gunfire and rushing down the vents as the other Elite rush to Val's aid. Now things are getting interesting~!

---

Aidric's laughter echoed through the vents as he and his two companions rushed through the structure. This wasn't enough to cover up Val's speaking over the radio, however, and that only seemed to make the rebel leader even more excited. Sneaking through air vents may have been classic, but it certainly didn't make for a standard fight!

It was with this in mind that the brunet abruptly came to a stop once the trio turned a corner, eyes going to a nearby opening. Aidric's grin widened as he turned to his friends.

"Well boys and girls, I don't know about you, but I for one think gunfire is significantly more interesting when you're actively involved. Besides, the elevator's that way and we're two floors away. I say we go for it, for JUSTICE! Also my face needs to be on TV. Like, really badly."
Signature, yeah.

((We do have a log, actually! 8D https://docs.google.com/document/d/1OV8aPR260jvacKN8GAHguOgvvGUOBeKBkBQ4D0EPZv8/edit?hl=en_US ))

Valentine followed close after Vincent, holstering his gun. "I'm going to try to trick them," he told his superior officer quietly. As he spoke, his face melted into the softer, rounder face of Gideon Rumis. "Their leader is with them - if we can take him alive, we could quite possibly destroy their entire operation."

If they captured Aidric, Valentine could take his shape and his place, a double agent at the highest position in the Messiah Complex. Vale didn't smile, because Gideon Rumis - beaten, bruised, cowed and captured and following brokenly after his captor - wouldn't have, but he couldn't deny the thought had a certain dramatic appeal.

Clara followed Aidric, giggling nervously. "R-right! Let's make you a star, boss~! And keep up, kiddo~! Don't get left behind now~!" She glanced back at Noah, grinning. Her heart was racing, her blood was pumping...this is why she loved going on missions. The danger made her feel truly alive. Soon, they'd be on tv and their message would be broadcast to the entire city. How much more fun could it get~?

XIII could hear what the Elites were saying through her earpiece, and she deduced the rest. Valentine seemed to have a pretty solid plan. If they could get rid of their leader and put the shapeshifter in his place, they would be able to erase the entire Messiah Complex in one go.

"XIII here. Go on with your idea. I'll guard the elevators, make sure no rats get by." She said in a terse manner, standing with her arms crossed in front of the only elevators in the floor. If the MC rats wanted to get to where the anti-MC ad was being shot, then they would have to go straight through her. And she wouldn't even have to do anything if Val's plan succeeded. A win situation either way.

I got a bad feeling about this.

"Alright Boss, just don't...nevermind." He was going to say not to do anything too flashy but then he remembered who he was talking too. His friend and leaders tendancy to showboat new no bounds, and while that was good in all on it's own time, bullets were historically renowned for being able to cut a speech short faster then most.

He crawled along after them and double checked the bonds he'd made close by.

Okay, I've got Aidric's coat, Clara's quiver, my own jacket and that rock i picked up in the alley....and the grate one floor down.

He groaned realizing he really should have brought something more offensive with which to use, and quickly made a bond with his gloves.

Guess it's time to see how well i improv under pressure?

((Thanks for posting the log Hex~! <3))

Aidric turned to grin at his companions, the expression twisting the scar on his face. It was clear there was no talking sense into the rebel leader now, he had something burning within and there was no stopping it. "All right," He murmured as energy coiled in his palms, reflecting in his eyes and the metal vents. "Let's go!"

With those words the brunet slammed his palm downward, knocking the vent he'd been crouched on out with a violent force. Aidric dropped in a burst of blue energy to land in the hallway, falling to a one-kneed crouch on old, cheap carpeting that was made to look far better than it actually was. After crouching there for a moment Aidric stood, glancing around and grinning.

"Anyone gonna applaud me? Come on, that entrance was badass!"
Signature, yeah.

Vincent just happened to be in the hallway around the corner at the time Aidric slammed his way out of the ventilation shaft. Vincent's heart skipped a beat at the prospect of being the first to writhe all of the juicy details of the Messiah Complex's inner working straight from the horses mouth, but Valentine's plan did have a certain set of merits. The officer whispered into his microphone.

"Aidric Carter spotted on floor 25, Val, make your way up here and hide in the stairwell. I will attempt to send him your way so you can nab him. The rest of you, get on up here"

He then took a face mask out of his side pocket, it was tailor made to be incredibly hard to take off even in a combat situation, he slid it over his face, grinning in delight.

"Anyone gonna applaud me? Come on, that entrance was badass!"

*clap*...*clap*...*clap*...*clap*

Vincent rounded the corner, dressed in his full Elite SWAT thick padded outfit.

"Very good...Mr. Carter. What's next up your sleeve? -Card tricks?~-" this was followed by a snort, he then straightened his form into that of a highly trained solder, his voice grew deeper. "Aidric Carter and the rest of your rag tag group up there, are ALL under arrest for the crime of Breaking and entering, destruction of private property, and conspiracy to overthrow the government. Now then...are you going to come quietly...or is this going to get...interesting?~"

Vincent snapped his neck, which was audible at the other end of the hallway.

Aidric blinked at the applause, brow furrowing. He hadn't actually expected applause, but it wasn't like it wasn't wanted. Of course, this was probably more of the "slow clap" sort of applause so he supposed that whole point was moot.

The rebel leader frowned for a moment at Vincent's words before his grin returned at the term 'arrest'. "'Interesting'? That's funny, I was just thinking the same thing, Erik. But I guess you Elite bloodhounds are all the same, eh?" Aidric's hands twitched at his sides, quirk jerks of his fingers sending sparks of blue rolling off of them.

"Guys!" He called behind him, not even waiting to see if Clara and Noah had followed him into the hallway. "As much as I love fighting, we're on a time limit! Cover me!" With those words he charged forward, thrusting a palm full of blinding blue towards Vincent as he did so.
Signature, yeah.

Noah scowled and hopped down after Aidric.

He's gonna get himself killed!

"Sis! Get out backs!" he barked, lifting his hands and preparing himself, reaching out and feeling the bond he'd made with Aidric's coat. If things got hairy he was fully prepared to yank his boss outta the fight, no matter how much he would complain about it later.

Clara followed the other two and hopped down from the vent, an arrow ready. "On it!" She took aim at Vincent, her arrow pointed towards his head. As much as she hated really hurting people, they needed to get in and out as quickly as possible. She did, however, glance back behind them to make sure no one was trying to sneak up on them from behind. Better to be safe then sorry.

Thought her original plan was to guard the elevators, she couldn't ignore the call for assistance from Vincent. If he were to be outnumbered, his chances of defeat are higher. If he falls, the Messiah Complex's chances of success would go up. XIII would not allow the mere shift in the balance. They were criminals, and she would have them in chains before they could cause any significant damage.

As such, XIII darted from her position in the elevators to where Vincent and the terrorist were, turning right and getting visual confimartion of their presence as they faced the Elite soldier further down the hallway.

"Tch..!" She made a sound of annoyance when a woman with a bow turned her head and saw the watchdog running towards them. She was making absolutely no sound that would alert to her presence, but apparently that girl was just cautious. A smart move, but a simple arrow would not stop her. Without saying a word, XIII quickened her pace, running at maximum speed towards the red-haired archer while reaching inside her jacket and pulling out her army knives, holding one with a normal grip and the other with an inverted grip.

Vincent's eyes narrowed as he watched Aidric run him down in the hall, he had enough knowledge of his fighting tactics from clips of video to information he wormed out of the many people he interrogated.

He turned his right hand into ice and span it up and smashed it down hard into the old tile flooring, the floor and everything around it shattered into a huge cloud of dust, nothing could be seen inside the cloud...but Vincent could certainly see the blue lightning from outside it, he hopped over to his left and straightened his fist into a quick knockout maneuver, the moment Aidric entered the cloud he had the upper hand.

((Ack, late post.))

Valentine obeyed Vincent's orders, darting out of the way and into the stairwell behind the Messiah Complex. He risked a quick look out from the stairwell, and then pulled back inside to consider his options. He could shoot at them from behind and potentially kill one of them before they realized they were being sniped. But he didn't particularly relish getting blasted by the leader - and he knew his value didn't lie in combat.

Alternately, he could enter the fight on the Messiah Complex's side. That ran the additional risk of having one of his fellow Elite think he had genuinely turned traitor, but he was reasonably certain they trusted him, and although the feeling wasn't mutual, he could rely on that trust to protect him.

He stepped out from the stairwell and, taking aim shakily, fired at the Elite. His expression and posture were determined, but unsuited to shooting a gun - Gideon Rumis was even less of a combat man than Valentine himself. He watched as the bullet crashed into the plaster wall a foot away from the cloud of dust which hid Vincent, and sent up a silent prayer that he would succeed in this plan.

Aidric would admit he'd been a bit surprised by the sudden dust cloud. That surprise seemed like nothing compared to the pain of the fist slamming into his face however, the force sending him veering to the side. Stars flashed across his vision as the brunet grit his teeth against the pain. To a normal person, that would have been a knockout punch.

But Aidric wasn't normal.

The rebel leader let out a laugh as he pivoted to face the source of the punch, flexing his fingers as he did so. "Gonna fight dirty, eh? Fine, let's do this the fun way!" He called out as he flung his arm out in an arc, sending forth a rain of small blue energy bursts.
Signature, yeah.

Clara's eyes widened. Reinforcements moved quick. "Kiddo! Behind us!!" She turned as quickly as she could and fired her arrow at XIII, nocking two more and firing those as well. They were sharp and small, making it easier for her to carry more of them. She fired as fast as she could at the approaching Elite, hoping that one would hit and that it would slow the other woman down.
