<DeathStar> 4.11.5991
<DeathStar> Location: The Club
<DeathStar> 6* Asarar updates reports up above, trying to get things in order since the events of 100. She leans back, trying to decide who to hire to replace Ylva and Ymir since they have become corporate owners
<kalonZombie> 6*Max sighs, missing his bestie
<DeathStar> 6* Brooke does the wave
<Jackieness> <Kira> *is under her sunlamp in a bikini on the rooftop, hooked into a VR sim for a much-needed 'vacation'
<DeathStar> 6* Asarar peers down at a file appear on her server with Kira's name. Asarar frowns, trying to access it, but finds it locked. She leans over and uses her comm to call Kira over
<Jackieness> <Kira> "...can it wait? I'm at the beach."
<DeathStar> <Asarar> I guess. It's titled to you from some group called the Neon Angels
<DeathStar> 6* Asarar prepares to put it to the waiting bin
<Jackieness> <Kira> "Say what?!" *unhooks from the VR rig* "I'll be right down."
<DeathStar> 6* Asarar blinks at the response
<DeathStar> 6* Ymir walks into the club wearing disguises to come play with the cats.
<Jackieness> <Kira> *heads into Ashara's office, still clad in the bikini* "Let's see it."
<DeathStar> <Asarar> It's got a password. I figure it's something obvious you'd know
<DeathStar> 6* Ymir grabs a random cat to play with
<Jackieness> <Kira> "...are you sure it said Neon Angels?"
<DeathStar> <Asarar> Yes. *she points at the signature*
<DeathStar> <Asarar> Give me a moment and I can crack it if you don't know it
<DeathStar> <Asarar> It doesn't look high tech
<Jackieness> <Kira> *types something in and submits a password*
<DeathStar> 6* The message opens up
<DeathStar> 6* It is a badly misspelled message to Kira from a member of the Neon Angel group it seems, addressed to Kira
<Jackieness> <Kira> "I was a kid... a kid with an implanted personality. Teenaged spy." *reads the message*
<DeathStar> "Li. I herd you were on the streets again. At some club? Fancy. It some job? *l* I got out of jail a yeer ago. Not many of us left. I miss you, chica. But we got a probem. We are bein hunted by someone. The old gang, we tooc something maybee we should knot hav, yea? Could use your talents, Li. And I mis you. We are at the old lokation. - Jade
<DeathStar> 6* Asarar reads over the mess of a message
<DeathStar> 6* She peers back at Jelly, squinting a moment, then back at the message
<Jackieness> <Kira> "What did they get into?"
<DeathStar> <Asarar> What sort of things did these Angels do?
<Stretch`cell> *Jelly shrugs*
<Stretch`cell> *Jelly turns and starts pulling up old info regarding heists that the Neon Angels had supposedly done and makes a list of any known groups that might have issue with the group*
<Jackieness> <Kira> "Ripped off corporate shipments... stuff from Macross, Tech Corp, BT Corp... hell, got a load of guns from Star Corp once. Carved out a slum empire. We were jacking ourselve sup on the crap we stole."
<DeathStar> <Asarar> I take it they went to jail a while back
<DeathStar> 6* According to reports, the Neon Angels are old news, having been busted years back
<DeathStar> 6* And many killed
<DeathStar> 6* Apparantly they tried to make a last stand and went down hard
<Stretch`cell> Jelly> "Thing is...who would be upset that some of the old Angels have gotten out?"
<DeathStar> <Asarar> I guess they started doing jobs again
<DeathStar> <Asarar> Pretty dumb to go back to their old base
<DeathStar> 6* Asarar looks up who Jade was, since she would have a record. Jade's face comes up, a young asian girl, far down on the Neon Angels list, but after they all got killed, is now top rankingg
<Jackieness> <Kira> "May have alot of enemies left. And yeah, last stand. Rest of the gangs finally got tired of our crap and joined forces. Fighting got so bad, corporate security showed up."
<Stretch`cell> Jelly> "What is the old location she mentioned? Could pull up info on the area."
<DeathStar> <Asarar> *does so, and brings up the location* There, it's even on police records. Nothing about their recent activities, but lets see. *She looks into anything stolen recently* A few hits, but if they stole something, whoever it is isn't reporting it
<DeathStar> <Asarar> The officer in charge of that area doesn't show any reports of looking into them. And it is... *makes a face*
<DeathStar> <Asarar> Figures
<Jackieness> <Kira> "What?"
<DeathStar> <Asarar> Officer Losco. Brother of Posco.
<Stretch`cell> *Jelly shivers* "Looney cop..."
<kalonZombie> <Max> Oh spirits not that guy.
<DeathStar> 6* Asarar jumps a bit at Max talking behind her
<Jackieness> <Kira> "...seriously?"
<DeathStar> <Asarar> Anyway, this is your call, Kira. Do you want to follow up on this?
<DeathStar> <Asarar> You practically have an invite to go to their base
<Jackieness> <Kira> "I'm going. Taking my bike."
<Stretch`cell> Jelly> "You don't want us to come with?"
<DeathStar> <Asarar> *stands up to go with*
<kalonZombie> 6*Max moves to go with them, in case they need a meatshield
<Jackieness> <Kira> "Give me a tail, but stay out of sight."
<Jackieness> <Kira> *heads to her room to change* "Something weird is going on."
<Stretch`cell> *Jelly follows after Asarar once he's grabbed his pack*
<DeathStar> <Asarar> Understood
<DeathStar> -TIME JUMP-
<DeathStar> 6* Kira soon arrives in the asian district, outside her old base. The base has seen better days, full of blast holes all over.
<DeathStar> 6* A voice calls out, ordering her to stop, a new Neon Angel peering out and aiming a weapon, younger than Kira was back in the day
<DeathStar> <Voice> Stop right there! Put all your goods on the grou--- *Jade walks out and hits her on the head* <Jade> Do you realize who this is? This is one of the toughest, greatest bitches to walk this district
<Jackieness> <Kira> "...this place looks worse than I remember."
<DeathStar> 6* Jade moves down a metallic platform, torn off a wall somewhere, to greet Kira, giving her a hug and kissing each cheek
<DeathStar> <Jade> I have missed you, Li
<DeathStar> <Jade> And yes. Repairing this place has not been easy. This place was once great. But ripping off walls from places is not so easy, not with the cops and other gangs holding grudges
<DeathStar> <Jade> Still, it is a good fortification
<DeathStar> 6* She moves to lead her inside
<Jackieness> <Kira> *walks inside after Jade*
<DeathStar> <Jade> I am glad to see you. So many of the older Angels are dead and these new ones, they don't know nothin'. *she spits on the ground, peering at the younger girls who have joined*
<DeathStar> 6* Asarar sits in the van off to the side, watching, leaning back. Not noticing as a few young asian girls move up and begin to rip off the van's tires
<Jackieness> <Kira> "Why bother raising the old flag? Our name is mud after the street war ended."
<Stretch`cell> *Jelly peers out the window at the mirror watching* "Um...boss...the locals are trying to jack part of our ride..."
<DeathStar> <Jade> Because we will be great again. *she says; that or she knows nothing else* Plus we did a job that will make us all great. I just don't know how the guy knows it was us. *she leads her into the back, showing her a priceless antique, a beautiful Jade Vase* We disabled all the cameras, alarms, everything. No way we were seen. But ever since we took it, someone has been coming after us, killing our people again. It has to be over this. And I can't pawn this off for coins. No one will take it - I can't even say what I have before they shut me down
<DeathStar> 6* Asarar peers out as they run off the tires
<DeathStar> <Asarar> You--- Jelly, go get them@
<DeathStar> <Jade> Even the cops shoot at us on sight.
<Jackieness> <Kira> "...where did you get it?"
<Stretch`cell> Jelly> "Me?!"
<DeathStar> <Jade> A private collector up on the top level. This old man. Had lots of valuable stuff. When the crazy stuff went down a week ago, all the power was going crazy as all this stuff was growing out of the ground. We took it off this old man's hands from his mansion. His name was Swanson. Jack Swanson.
<DeathStar> <Asarar> Yes, you! I have to keep an eye on Kira
<DeathStar> 6* The two run out of sight to the right in an alley
<Stretch`cell> *Jelly sighs and hoists his pack, climbing out and pausing to sniff where the girls were to get their scent before trudging off after them*
<DeathStar> <Jade> Like, if you can deal with whoever is after us, like the old days, I give you 30% of the cut, Li
<DeathStar> 6* Jade leans in, smiling. "Anything else you like, too."
<DeathStar> 6* The two young kids, in their 10s/11s, spot Jelly trudging and hurry, rolling the tires up a platform and carry it through a window into an apartment building, closing the window, figuring he won't find them
<Jackieness> <Kira> "What cut? You already said no one wants to buy it."
<DeathStar> <Jade> Hey, if you deal with the fucker in our way, then I'm sure they will
<DeathStar> <Asarar> *on comm* Maybe I should steal something that pretty for you as a gift. *to Kira*
<Stretch`cell> *Jelly looks up at where they disappeared into the building, figuring out what floor before heading in through the main entrance*
<DeathStar> 6* Jelly would find himself in a run down apartment building, with lots of rooms to choose from
<DeathStar> 6* It is 2 floors tall
<Stretch`cell> *Jelly pauses and starts using his nose to find the girls, burning a perception to boost his sensitivity*
<DeathStar> 6* They seem to be in room 204, somewhere
<Jackieness> <Kira> "Look, I'm going to place some calls and find out who this Jack Swanson guy is. Next time, stick to ripping corporate shipments like the old days. The factory managers slum level were skimming anyway, so missing crates didn't get noticed so much."
<DeathStar> 6* The older Neon Angels nod a bit to Kira, while the newer ones study her with a sniff
<DeathStar> <Jade> Sure. Will do
<Stretch`cell> *Jelly looks for some stairs to head that way*
<DeathStar> <Asarar> *comm* Looking it up now
<DeathStar> 6* Asarar taps on her data-reader
<DeathStar> 6* There are stairs, being an apartment building
<Jackieness> <Kira> *moves to the side a bit and pulls out her mobile, secretly opening the channel to Asarar as she calls her 'contacts'*
<Stretch`cell> *Jelly starts heading up, idly tapping at his datareader and looking for a layout of the building*
<DeathStar> <Asarar> *comm* Jack Swanson is an old millionare that likes to collect rare artifacts. He has not reported anything stolen, but it is said that he does a lot of chartities to the police and other things. I am doing finger quotations with my hands. Jack Swanson was said to have ties to corporations, all of them, when he was younger, being a guy who could procure things, and went to Geyze a lot and dig digging
<DeathStar> 6* It looks like a normal layout, with the building pretty much mashed up to the next building
<Jackieness> <Kira> "Anything else?"
<DeathStar> <Asarar> That's about it. Though the charities are pretty high to the police and stuff, so they might be inclined to do him a favor. Like deal with thieves.
<DeathStar> <Asarar> He could also hire mecs to get his stuff back
<Stretch`cell> *Jelly heads over to 204 and sniffs again to ensure the scent is right*
<DeathStar> *it is faint but yes*
<Jackieness> <Kira> "This is a messy one. Ok, I'll deal with it."
<Stretch`cell> *Jelly knocks on the door*
<DeathStar> *no answer*
<Stretch`cell> *Jelly tries the doorknob to see if it's locked*
<DeathStar> *Yes*
<DeathStar> 6* As Kira stands outside, she would see various vehicles driving up and lining up
<Stretch`cell> *Jelly looks back at the layout to see if there's an adjoining room that may have vent access*
<Jackieness> <Kira> "I got movement. Who are these guys?"
<DeathStar> *no*
<DeathStar> <Asarar> *cranes her head* No clue
<Stretch`cell> *Jelly grumbles and looks for another way into the room*
<DeathStar> 6* The three vehicles park and men in armor climb out, and set up what look like high powered launchers, with armor piercing, then another set with rocket launchers, at the base. 7 guys in total aim. Asarar checks her computer, noticing there is no police in the area*
<Jackieness> <Kira> *backs into the Neon Angel warehouse* "Go to ground, someone is setting up I'm smellign raid."
<DeathStar> 6* There seems to be none, other than the platform outside leading up to the window that was shut
<DeathStar> *that and the flimsy locked door*
<DeathStar> <Jade> We're under attack? Neon Angels, you know what to do!
<DeathStar> 6* They move into positions in the base, in what looks almost like a repeat from years ago
<Jackieness> <Kira> *peeks out and then pulls her ehad back in* "Shit. These guys are heavies."
* GhostChain has joined #DualSession102
<DeathStar> <Jade> *peers out as well* Shit, all this for one stupid vase?
<DeathStar> 6* Asarar makes a face at the firepower
<Jackieness> <Kira> "You stole from this guy. He wants to make an example."
<DeathStar> 6* Jade just grins, and checks her small time gun
<DeathStar> <Jade> Well, he'll find that we're not to be fucked with to-- 6* The side of their base gets a hole blown out of it, 4 of her girls are buried
<Stretch`cell> *Jelly grumbles and steps farther back from the door, before kicking at the door by the knob*
<DeathStar> 6* Asarar climbs out of the van, radioing Jelly to get the fuck back
<DeathStar> 6* The door shatters
<Jackieness> <Kira> "No, you are going to take the rest and take the low road. Clear out."
<DeathStar> <Jade> But---
<Stretch`cell> *Jelly looks to his reader and the message, cursing before heading towards the van*
<DeathStar> 6* Asarar tries to go around
<DeathStar> 6* Peering out of a closet toward the shattered door, having put up a bed to cover it it, the two youngsters with the wheels stick out their tongues, having won
<DeathStar> 6* Jade peers at Kira, then nods. "Right, Li."
<DeathStar> 6* She begins to order them to go
<Jackieness> <Kira> "Live today. Fight tomorrow."
<DeathStar> 6* They fire more blasts into the base from above
<DeathStar> 6* Jade gets her Neon Angels out slowly, grabbing what they can
<Jackieness> <Kira> "...and suddenly I'm fourteen again... bullets and blasts raining around me."
<DeathStar> 6* Asarar hacks into their car and slams into one, making his rocket launcher blast into the bridge and scatter them temporarily
<DeathStar> 6* The six remaining ones that are alive crash near the base, getting up and pulling their damaged helmets off as Jelly arrives
<Stretch`cell> *Jelly cautiously peers around a corner on his way back, eyeing the assault* "Aw hell..." *Starting to record some of the activity*
<Jackieness> <Kira> *draws her shortblade and then slips out of the ruins, stealthing toward one of the nearest ones from behind.
<Stretch`cell> *Jelly pulls his pack off and holds it in front of him before stepping out by the guys* "Hey bozoes! Don't you know that's dangerous?"
<DeathStar> *The mercs turn toward Jelly, and aim their weapons toward him*
<DeathStar> *firing a blast at him*
<Stretch`cell> *Jelly triggers the LED Flash to blind them*
<DeathStar> *the six curse as the blast strikes Jelly's feet, sending him flying high*
<Jackieness> <Kira> *then dashes, moving to quickly cut some throats*
<DeathStar> 6* Asarar moves in and attacks one of them, punching them and slamming into their face, breaking bones with Kira, as two are cut and gurgle, and she breaks another's nose*
<DeathStar> 6* The remaining three radio in something as they stumble away
<Stretch`cell> *jelly flails through the air trying to not land horribly*
<DeathStar> 6* One of the remaining three is crushed by Jelly
<Jackieness> <Kira> *dashes toward one of the remaining three and then slashes at his tendons*
<DeathStar> 6* The merc flips Kira onto her back, forming energy blades and stabs down at her, while the remaining one grabs Asarar by the throat as she comes in
<DeathStar> 6* Asarar fumbles for the van controls as she chokes, hitting a button and has the van come in at them, on hover mode and turns the merc to get hit by the van, knocking her and him onto the ground painfully
<Stretch`cell> Jelly> "Ok...hero time is over..." *pulling his pack back on and making his way towards Asarar and Kira*
<Jackieness> <Kira> *uses her shoirt blade to try to deflect the mercs energy blades
<DeathStar> 6* The merc is deflected and stumbles back as Asarar kicks him
<DeathStar> <Asarar> There.
<Jackieness> <Kira> *tries stabbing her blade to pin the emrc's hand to the ground to make her point*
<Stretch`cell> *Jelly moves closer and a mechanical arm pops out of the side of his pack*
<DeathStar> 6* The merc howls
<DeathStar> <Asarar> Ouch
<DeathStar> 6* He tries to rip the blade out with his good arm
<Stretch`cell> Jelly> "I might be able to cauterize that...but it'll hurt like a bitch."
<DeathStar> 6* Asarar checks her data-reader, noticing the nearby apartments haave notifified the police, but none of them have been dispatched
<Stretch`cell> *Jelly grins, the arm blaster starting to glow a deep red*
<Jackieness> <Kira> *slams her foot down on to his good arm to stop him from freeing himself and then leans over* "Ready to talk, or do you have to swallow your testicles first?"
<DeathStar> <Merc> ##$$#$
<DeathStar> <Merc> What do you want to know, bitch!>? *he shakes in pain*
<Jackieness> <Kira> "I probably alreayd know the answer, but let's start easy. Who sent you?"
<DeathStar> <Merc> Jack Swanson. He wants his shit back
<DeathStar> 6* He shakes in pain, sweat covering his face
<Jackieness> <Kira> "He could have sent some troubleshooters in after the girls were all stoned and that would be that. Why the show?"
<DeathStar> 6* Asarar takes a picture of Kira and the Merc, sending it to Vyvy and Bigby
<DeathStar> <Merc> No one steals from him.
<DeathStar> <Merc> No one that wants to live,. *ungh*
<DeathStar> <Merc> Especially not some fucking stoner asian bitches
<Stretch`cell> *Jelly records the interrogation*
<DeathStar> *The merc spits blood onto the camera*
<Jackieness> <Kira> *grinds her heel* "Anything else you want to confess?"
<DeathStar> <Merc> AAAAH. Fuck...you...
<DeathStar> 6* Asarar swoons, sending more images to them, Cypher, and Chelsea
<DeathStar> 6* Ymir, who is petting cats, stares at the images and shivers
<Jackieness> <Kira> "I absolve you." *suddenly pulls her shortblade form the man's hand and then slashes it across his throat*
<Stretch`cell> *Jelly shrugs and the blaster barrel starts building more charge*
<DeathStar> 6* The merc gurgles and dies
<DeathStar> <Asarar> Well. Now to deal with Swanson
<Jackieness> <Kira> "First thing is first."
<DeathStar> 6* Asarar moves to set fire to the bodies
<Jackieness> <Kira> "No... I have another idea."
<Stretch`cell> Jelly> "Get the angels somewhere safe?"
<DeathStar> <Asarar> What's that?
<Jackieness> <Kira> "Just follow my instructions..."
<DeathStar> *Asarar nods*
<DeathStar> -TIME SKIP-
<DeathStar> Location: Top Side, Swanson Manor
<DeathStar> 6* Due to the changes to the environment, a thunder storm is raging violently outside
<DeathStar> 6 Swanson wheelchairs himself around the manor, muttering, when the lights go out and he mutters, wheel chairing in the dark
<DeathStar> 6* He pauses when he sees images on the wall and goes in to see closer.
<DeathStar> 6* Then screams as he sees images of crucified mercs on the walls. Gasping and grabbing at his chest, he looks all around as more appear
<DeathStar> 6* Swanson begins to back pedal when the last one appears of a merc hanging there with a sign saying "I'm already in your house"
<DeathStar> <Swanson> Waaah?!
<DeathStar> 6* Grabbing at the wheels, he tries to make it for the comm to call security
<Jackieness> 6* A random object is shoves through the spokes of one of his wheels to lock him into place.
<DeathStar> 6* Swanson jerks and falls out of the chair
<DeathStar> <Swanson> N-no... who is there? SHOW YOURSELF
<Jackieness> <Kira> *staying just out of sight* "Shinigami. An ancient word. Some translate it as 'Angel of Death'."
<DeathStar> 6* Swanson pales, since he is into ancient cultures. "Y-you are just a person. I-I will call the police. WHO ARE YOU?"
<Jackieness> <Kira> *lets her shortblade make a scratching sound along the wall as she circles* "You can call me the Neon Angel."
<Stretch`cell> Jelly> "You know...this security system is kind of lack luster. 1024 bit encryption? I can crack that in my sleep...too bad for you that only took 23 seconds. Another 12 and your redundancies might have made it fun..." *stays behind kira in a shadow*
<DeathStar> 6* Swanson breaks out into a cold sweat. "Y-you are one of them"
<DeathStar> 6* He then pauses at a second voice, latching onto that
<DeathStar> <Swanson> A-a hacker? I'll pay you. Stop her. *His fear seems to go away. Looks like Jelly done fucked up*
<DeathStar> <Swanson> I'll make you powerful beyond your wildest dreams
<Jackieness> <Kira> "Not one of them. I am the Neon Angel."
<DeathStar> 6* Swanson peers between the two, slowly crawling away. "They're a group."
<DeathStar> <Swanson> I read all the reports
<Stretch`cell> *Jelly shakes his head at the offer, but silently enjoying the show*
<Jackieness> <Kira> "They are my hands in the dirt while I look down upon you all from the dark-filled heavens."
<DeathStar> *He swallows* What do you two want? Just tell me!
<DeathStar> 6* He shouts
<DeathStar> 6* He feeblely grasps for anything to use
<Stretch`cell> *Jelly pulls out his knife and offers it out to Kira should she want the second blade*
<Jackieness> <Kira> "I want you to feel how small you are in the big picture. All your money. All your influence. It si all nothing for, at this moment, you touch the precincts of the gods. And they step upon your anthill."
<DeathStar> 6* Swanson looks ready to sick up all over the floor
<Jackieness> <Kira> "Your time grows short. Ponder this moment and all the moments before as you prepare for your last rites." *the lights come on, leaving Swanson alone in a room*
<DeathStar> 6* Samson looks around and stumbles along the floor, grabbing at the comm to call the police, then shakily lets it go, cowering
<DeathStar> 6* Asarar stands on a roof, monitoring
<DeathStar> <Asarar> And he backed down
<Jackieness> <Kira> *walks up next to Asarar* "Almost lost that one. Jelly was supposed to get me inside, not adlib."
<DeathStar> 6* Somewhere out there, Locos learns Swanson is letting it go and he narrows his eyes. Days later, he eyes an image of Kira, Asarar, and Jelly on the scene, and holds up their images in conjecture of his bro0ther Pocos. Soon.
<DeathStar> <Asarar> You are my Neon Angel any time though. *She smiles and kisses KIra*
<DeathStar> <Asarar> I guess this means your friend Jade can have all the fun she wants now
<Jackieness> <Kira> "Within reason. I cna't keep protecting her from stupid."
<DeathStar> <Asarar> So, while we go home, you can tell me why she kept clinging to you like you were old lovers...
<DeathStar> -END-
