OOC: Villain Mission: Take everything and head on home. Leave a few lackeys behind to set up shop, and find local contacts for contraband, and illegal items. A storage house this close to Tokyo was valuable! Hero Mission: There's been a phone call of some suspicious activity going on. There was a huge fleet of suvs headed to the warehouse district. Figure out what's going on and stop it. _________________IC: As it was described, the yakuza team would find themselves in a small city within the prefer. Further out, and towards the water it would get a bit more industrial. Multiple dark colored suvs would pull through the streets before finally reaching the appropriate warehouse. They'd be met by a porter, or at least a yakuza-man posing as a porter. "Is there a reason for the dumb yokai masks? This ain't no festival." He glanced to Kirie and Gauss, the only two without masks. Due to this sole fact, he could surmise, they were the bosses of this masked group. Kirie wouldn't answer, she'd only smile. "Ummmm, I think we've got a problem up front." He'd speak into his walkie talkie. "Guys... I need you to scare away these posers. Guys!" A bead of sweat drew. A voice would chime into their comm devices. As the grunt fumbled about on his walkie in hopes someone would answer, Kirie and Gauss would receive word from a squad who already snuck into the back. "Targets neutralized. The only ones left, are the few upfront with you. Squad is incoming to pincer. " By this time, the porter was getting frustrated slamming the walkie into the wall out of frustration. Kirie couldn't help but giggle. She'd point for the man to turn around. "HEY! I NEED SOME SECURITY TO HANDLE THESE BOZ...os" His rage quickly diminished as he turned to look. Equipped with the very guns he meant to sell, a squad of masked soldiers stormed up. "ahahaha! Guass, it's like taking candy from a baby!" She exclaimed. They didn't recieved orders to kill anyone, but they didn't say NOT to kill anyone either. With a big grin to Gauss, she- " Soooo, whatchya wanna do with him and his flunkies?" |

This was it. Gauss was a man of pride, but his shift from the ashes of Apex Circus to the Yakuza had been an easy process. He knew when he sat in the presence of someone stronger than him, in body and mind. Apex had been going nowhere, and it only cost an arm for him and his other trusted compadres to be accepted over to the group. There was a lot of potential here, for chaos and fun.
Gauss grinned as he stepped out of the SUV. The goon was shitting himself as they stood before him, Kirie baring her teeth and Gauss cracking his one fleshy knuckle. His sleek new metal arm shone dangerously, and his hand rested lazily on his katana that was slung by his hip. That was the main stipulation, that and he wanted tattoos. Tatoos are earned, Gauss. Go and show us why you deserve them. The large man chuckled, learning down to be face to face with the porter.
"Eeeh? Looks like you have some problems with yer communication... don't worry! This isn't a time to be angry. It's a festival, don't you know!"
Gauss grabbed the man by the front of his uniform, swinging him around so he faced the open harbour behind them. The man would suddenly feel his body want to get as far away from this bald lunatic as fast as possible, as Gauss' Quirk activated and made them polar opposites. It was just Gauss' hand gripping the man tight that stopped him from being flung far out to the ocean.
"I think we let them play a game, Little Tyrant! I call it... fight or flight! Ya merry little gang can stay and try and protect the thing your bosses want you to protect, and we'll kill you all... or you fly away, little bird, fly far and never darken our door again."
With his muscles bulging against the force of his own Quirk, he dragged the man through the air so they were face to face. Gauss' breath was sweet, his eyes behind his glasses flashing with an intense, focused gaze.
"Your choice! What will it be?" |

The man struggle and writhed, unable to escape Gauss clutch. The man was cartoonishly large, and the girl was tiny compared to him. They were a team? He just couldn't understand. As his body lifted in the the air, he damn near preyed to stay in Gauss powerful grip. Fight or flight? What a terrible game! Kirie jumped and hung off of Gauss' shoulder. "F-f-f-f--uck you guys! I-.... wait till my boss hears that I'm missing!" A bluff. This storage house was practically begging to be taken. The dumb ones always think they're tough.
"That's a great game Gaussy! Wait wait, he needs the real version of the game... Ya know, since he wants to get mouthy! Mistew, tough gai..." She cooed at the porter, prepping herself. The porter seemed to be prepping himself too. Idiot's courage, but he too was a Yakuza, despite getting properly bullied. "But this game only works when real FEAR is involved. Fiiiight or RAAAA-ight!" Kirie would expose her Jurrasic maw in a quick change transformation. The man shrieked at the top of his lungs, pinching and pulling at Gauss's fingers to let go. "Pleeeeeeeeeeeeeease"
"FLIGHT!" Kirie giggled, already back to normal. In the background of their game, the masks were going quick to work. Boxes were being moved from hand to hand, some of the SUV's were already pulling off. Kirie turned in surprised. In Apex, they always had to do things themself... She never realized how fast things could get with real grunts around. The villainous luxury of work being done for her, absolutely splendid! Hmmph, yakuza life wasn't that bad! She'd bark an order, partially because it made sense, and partially because she wanted to test her superiority. "Remember it's a long drive back. Some of you guys can stand gaurd, that means you have more room in the cars. Make sense?"
"HAI!" in unison, sharp and without wavering. The masks obeyed.
"Ooooohoooo!" She squeed in excitement, but it died down a bit. Still on her partner's shoulder, she'd speak to him-"I could get used to this, but it'd be a whole lot nicer if Jiro and Seam stayed with us. At least they got away safe..."

"Yeah... flight it is!"
Gauss let go, and the yakuza shot out like a bullet from a barrel, soaring off over the harbour waters and landing somewhere out of sight. He chuckled, turning back to their fine work.
"Man... Apex Circus was stuck in the dark ages, huh? This is the way to do it. We just gotta hope no heroes show up... that would be too much fun!"
Gauss grinned with a twisted expression, fully enjoying himself and their new role. His hand rested on the hilt of his sweet-ass katana, and already he could envision the tattoo he would create with tonight. The first stage would be the utter defeat of Apex, but the intense fight they had been a part of. Next...
"Mm... Seam and Jiro made their choice. If they cross our paths, then we can give them another one though. I'm sure the top brass won't mind a few more capable members on side!"
Gauss clapped his hands noisily, commanding the masked men to stop again.
"Hooooi! Let's go, hurry up! We gotta get this shipment loaded before any heroes show up!" |

Saionji was out and about. It wasnt a normal patrol area but every now and then, she would check up on smaller parts of town. They were underserved, the heros typically focusing on bigger cities where action came easily.
She was less likely to find something here, but she was always vigilant. That vigilance paid off, this time around. She took notice of an truck, which normally wouldnt be odd except for the fact that deliveries to and from this warehouse didnt normally happen at this time a day. She decided it warranted a closer look and she would do so, hearing the tall-tale sign of trouble
"Bingo!"
She stated, popping in one of the bullers she had on her person on her person and started on chewing it nice and thoroughly, and after a few moments, she would spit it out, near the entrance of the storage unit announcing her entrance with, literally, a big a bang as an explosion had occured on impact, blasting away anything that was near by
"come out come out wherever you are"
She stated playfully as she popped a piece of charcoal in her mouth as she searched for, what she assumed, to be a couple villains

"Speak of the devil." Kirie braced herself as the explosion rang out, and guards were blown away. Turning to Gauss with worry, she'd leap down from his shoulder and make a sour face before finding her smile again. "Ya know, if things went too smoothly I think I would gotten bored." She waved to the larger man. They didn't know what kind of assault this was. They could slowly spread out and take a look. Majority of the cargo had already been moved, so they could this mission 70% done, but for the boss anything that didn't get done right was the same as not getting done at all. With soft steps, she'd fan out further. That way if her partner saw anything, she could coordinate and vice versa. The person... a woman it seemed to call out.
"come out come out wherever you are"
Keen enough to recognize where the sound was coming from, Kirie wanted to dash toward it but knew better than to jump into unknown situations. The old her would have, but she had to survive and make her way up the Yakuza ranks. She'd yank her pistol from her thigh holster, and nod to Gauss that she was gonna slowly try and bring this person out. "Oh man, you got us. Oooooooh cruel world. I've fallen and I can't get up." She oozed with sarcasm, charging the pistol by pulling the slide back. Her weapon was live, and she'd shoot to kill if need be.

Gauss followed Kirie's lead, but on his face he wore a grin. If it was too easy, then it would be boring! He motioned to the masked Yakuza to keep going, and he and Kirie fanned out towards the explosion. Hero... it didn't sound like a hero. They didn't tend to taunt or goad their opponents. Gauss out his real arm on the hilt of his katana, nodding towards Kirie as they took position. While she called out to the enemy, Gauss remained deathly silent, ready to strike at a moment's notice. Whoever this Hero or whatever was, they would regret stumbling across this group of Yakuza!

Cocky villains these were. They responded back to her, and she heard at least two voices. Saionji had a general direction to where the two of them may be but she knew better than to make a break for it. She needed cover at the very least, these villains sounded as ready to play the same game she did.
She would like herself up with the side of the building, blowing up a bubble, being careful to not pop it she would reach the corner of the wall she was at and she would peek over.
Grabbing the charcoal gum she chucked it towards the villains, and pop another piece of gum, this time a bullet, in her mouth. As the bubble landed, it would pop and as it did so, flames would emerge and spread, burning any flammable material it could touch and would continue to do so until some one came over to stop it.
It had the potential to burn down the entire warehouse but, at the very least the villains would loose their precious cargo and the smoke could give her enough cargo to identify them

Kirie looked to Gauss, and felt more confident to approach. After so boldy getting in the way this person seemed hell-bent on staying hidden. This wouldn't do at all. "Well if it's a game we're playing. We just got done one where I guy got sent flying. He's probably drowning in the harbor, riiiiight about now!" She egged the do-gooder on, while moving in. At the sight of the projectile, Kirie sprint in the direction it came. A projectile would come, some sort of orb, but it would blow up as fast as a gunshot could be heard. The flame was big and bright, but this let both her and Gauss know her location. Bringing in the head of a nuisance like this could solve their missing cargo problem. All they had to do was produce a body, simple math!
"I'm going right!" She called out to Gauss, holstering her gun. As she did veer further right and passed the edge of the wall, she could make out a silhouette through the smoke. She'd charge right in, making sure to pace herself and coordinate well with Gauss' movements. Whoever had a better angle had every right to attack. The other could easily follow up and challenge this person's ability to multitask.

Kirie was going right. Gauss grinned, turning his attention to the direction of the blast. An explosive Quirk maybe, but the blasts were too lackluster. There had to be more up the enemy's sleeve. For now, he would give his partner cover for a surprise attack. He moved swiftly, heading left, but stopping in the open at the centre of the smoke.
"Nice one, Hero! Ya caught us, alright... pity, we were about to take all of this loot and cash in! I'm here... so come and get me!"
Including himself, the goon who was now swimming with the fishes and his sword, Gauss had seven more objects to use his quirk on. He was playing it safe, working with Kirie to flush them out and see what their abilities were.

Tch... they were goading for her to come out too. A hero would take bait immediately. She was smarter but... at the same time, if someone was drowning in the lake... she should save them?
She shook her head, she needed to focus on the task at hand. She popped some metal into her mouth and quickly chewed them and spread them over her knuckles. It would be hell to take off later but for right now, improve brass knuckles!
As the metal hardened over her fists, she had kicked a barrel out into the open, refusing to be caught in the open first. In the heavy smoke, the barrel was moving fast enough to look like someone dashing. She wasnt sure if the villains were gonna take her bait but.. to be safe, she popped metal and sulfur and got to chewing. If the villains had taken the bait, she would make her move. If they hadnt, she would dash out and find some cover. Somewhere she could get better lay of the land. She couldnt play it safe forever, after all

While a decoy was nice in this situation. The sound effect the barrel gave away made Kirie sure it was a real human. She could also tell where the barrel had came from, which likely meant where this coward hero was. She charge right in, her footsteps much heavier than her appearance gave away. It was clear the villain was hiding something. The smoke would play to her advantage as well as she honed in on the mystery attack. A loud crash would be heard as she blew a chunk through the wall. "She moved near you!" Calling out to Gauss. She spat on the ground in annoyance. Pesky do-gooders, always trying to ruin a good plan. This fire was proving both hazardous to the goods and the battlefield. If this storage house was trash, then so be it. She'd bash into the wall once more causing the building to shake, and some debris to drop down on the rising flame. If this vigilante were need any walls or the storage house, they'd need to move or risk coming down with the whole building.
Another bash, and the majority of the wall would crumble. Kirie stood, her tail whipping left to right as she looked around for any sudden movements. This person couldn't hide forever, especially after taking one of the walls down.

As the barrel came into view, Gauss lunged out. At first he had assumed it was the enemy, but he grinned when his huge prosthetic hand gripped the cold metal. His other hand touched the surface as he turned to look around. This was getting annoying... but the job was nearly done. Now it was just a war of attrition.
"Ya can't be a hero... a hero wouldn't sneak around like one of us! If yer a villain too, then I'd reconsider and sneak back to whatever hole ya came from. This is Yakuza territory! Ain't no way our bosses will let ya off alive if yer keep this up!"
While he spoke, Gauss watched... waiting for movement. As soon as he saw anything, then their makeshift decoy would become his weapon.

They didn't fall for the decoy it seemed, and she could hear the heavy footsteps heading her way! She had to move, and fast but she wasn't fast enough. The pushback from the wall being forcibly pushed down propelled her further, and she was hurtling through the air. She struggled to get her footing back, and she was a bit discombobulated now but she didn't have the luxury of reorienting herself. The other was near, she could tell by how close the voice sounded. If she stayed in place for too long, her form would be visible to the villain
"pft, heros aren't the only ones who fight evil doers like yourself "
She retorted back, giving her position away to the villains. It wouldn't matter though, she knew where their position was as well and she would blow the bubble quickly and just as quickly spit it out, causing an explosion to occur, saionji and the villain both in the range of the explosion. It would feel like metal shards were flying through the air as well and, as they landed, it would be like metal caltrops were spread around the ground. Saionji herself had multiple slashes about her body and she was quick to pop a piece of metal into her mouth and pop it, letting the gum coat her fist. It meant she couldn't unflex her hands for a time, but she now had make shift iron gauntlets. The pain didn't phase her, and she wouldn't let her adversary time to reorient themselves after the explosion, closing in with an iron fortified fist attempted to make contact with the villains body

Kirie smiled as her kicked bumped the vigilante into the open. The issue was the girl seemed to have another trick up her sleeve. The explosion blew the villain back quite a ways. She'd skidded to her feet, and check her body for damage. Just a few burns, nothing she couldn't soldier through. Scanning around, she noticed Saionji closing in on Gauss with some strange metallic gloves she produced with her mouth. Just what kind of quirk was that?  Now wasn't the time for gawking at super powers, Kirie quickly unsheathed her blade and launched it directly at her partner. She knew Gauss's quirk well enough to know he was stronger with more resources. With another sword added to his two own, it would make for more ammo. "Heads up!" That damn explosion created more separation than she wanted. In a hearty sprint, she'd try to close the gap while the vigilante's attention was still on her partner. Though now, that they were out in the open. her metallic tail would be seen by the enemy. Now that she thought about it more, it didn't matter much because if they tore her to shreds, there'd be no witnesses to denote what happened. So in this case... all that matter was killing Saionji. |
