"Wait, we're just gonna follow them to wherever they're headed without checking what we're getting ourselves in for?" Crimson remarked, "Who's to say we aren't gonna fly over some military base with more advanced tech and get clocked right away, invisible or not?"

- Starlass -
Starlass paused, thinking back to the day before. "24 hours ago..." she checked the large clock hanging behind the council. "Ah, right. The Pursuer took Argent mind in for his original hearing over the cybernetic medicine issue. I'm personally unaware of what happened inside the hearing, but out in the streets, there was chaos. People rioted all the way up to city hall, where the Pursuer stood guard like a dog. When the rioters began to push into the building, the council's bodyguard openly attacked them, possibly causing casualties if it weren't for the efforts of heroes acting under my direction. Is that all you needed to know?" - Sonar -
Sonar simply sat back and watched, for now, giving Strakov a half-salute. He was content to listen rather than speak. That's what he's good at, after all. - Ares -
Ares tumbled to the side to avoid the shield, crossing opposite Bellona's sword arm to give him time to regain his feet before she attacked. This would be an opportune moment to take a swing at her back, but with the shield still keeping the momentum, he didn't want to leave any part of himself exposed. A single blow from that thing could knock him out entirely. He pulled Excalibur outward, ready to block the next shield swing into the ground to immobilise it. Bellona was winning, not giving Ares any chances to change that, and it was unacceptable.

- Hammerfist - Jason slipped after the Broker, keeping close. He couldn't really do accents, so he just kept his mouth shut and prepared to act. - Argent Mind - Argent Mind sighed. Cooper had ignored his request for alliance, rendering the possibility of success... Empty. "Alright then..." He sighed, irritated slightly by the man's refusal to discuss the issue, and stepped forward. - The Speaker - Ragno's car pulled up at the Citadel. He was here for the fundraiser, as he should be considering his role in the place. If anyone was against the idea, he would change their minds. - Reaver - Reaver smirked. "Oh, Red, where's your faith? I upgraded the stealth on this thing personally- there's damn all in this planet that can find it if we don't want to be found. Anyway, Nariko's keeping full watch on our surroundings. The city ahead is the capital, and our Broker friend has gone to the council, of all places." At that, she turned to Inferno. "So yeah. We've got the Broker, some heroes and the council. Go all out, Ferny. Burn it to the ground. Snow and Crim can go for the boy while we torch and slaughter and do what we do best."

"We are aware of what The Pursuer did. We authorised it, and he was within the law, regardless of what the rioters or you think. I was asking about how, a tower full of superheroes, somehow failed to keep 60% of the council alive?" - The Broker -
The Broker shot all the cameras as the hostages cowered around. "Ladies and gentlemen, please stay calm, get down on your hands and knees, and you better hold your heads tight because we blow em off!" shouted the Broker, still keeping his irish accent strong. He looked at everyone, the staff who locked themselves behind the bulletproof glass, the other three people around, and the hostages. He looked at all of them, before grabbing a young looking blonde. She resisted, but the Broker's calmness kept everything running. They approached the glass door with the weapon pointing at her head, and he ordered the staff "You want to see her brains on the glass? Open up!"
The staff member was a bit defiant. "How do I know that isn't a fake?"
The Broker aimed the weapon towards the glass and fired promptly, leaving a tiny but noticeable scratch. The woman went hysterical, screaming and shaking but to no avail. "Do I have to repeat myself?"
The staff member gave in, and opened the door. The Broker entered with the hostage and took away the keys the staff had. They joined the others minus one. The Broker told the woman to return the vehicle while he aimed the weapon at a staff member. "Now, unlock the door laddy!"
The staff member complied and unlocked the first of three doors. He ordered the staff to head to the circle.
"Gentleman, they set off the silent alarm!" said Claudia over the headsets. "I can keep it scrambled for a minute but you're going to have to speed up."
"Understood C" replied the Broker, before looking at Luke, hinting him to come on over.

"Wait? I'm sorry? Torch and slaughter? Doesn't that seem a little... unnecessary? What do we accomplish from killing a bunch of random suits?"

Luke complied promptly rushing over towards The Broker. AND YOU'D BETTER SHUT UP. - Raven -
Lilly saw Mr. Ragno approaching the Citadel from his car, and gulped slightly. She was sure that she hadn't done anything wrong, unless the heist The Broker was currently conducting would cause issues. She kept her calm and continued greeting the guests.

"The Pursuer's actions might have been authorised, but that does not make them justified. As the heroes who were at the scene demonstrated, there was an entirely peaceful solution that did not require attacking innocent people. As for the killings of the council, our staff was largely preoccupied with containing the mass breakouts at the prison complex. Our responsibility is first and foremost to the citizens, not to the council. We had to make the tough judgement call on where to send our resources, and we opted for the method which resulted in the least civilian casualties." Starlass paused for effect, partly to make up her mind about what to say next. "The Tower is still in its infancy as an organisation. We've only had a handful of days in which to establish ourselves as the peacekeepers in Heartania, and Reaver's attack caught us completely off guard. At the time of the attack, there were only four heroes available to respond, myself included, and so we were spread very thin. Despite this, the high council seems determined to take away some of our more valuable assets, especially Argent Mind." She added a sting to the last sentence. Hopefully, her message would carry across: the high council wasn't making things easier for anybody by pursuing this matter. "Is there anything else you'd like to know?"

- Councillor Nora - "Yes" promptly replied Councillor Nora. "We do find it strange that the remnants of the police force were able to push back the criminals, yet the sheer lack of action through the Tower has contributed to the disaster. Argent was mostly absent, and some heroes that did respond were not under the direction of your organisation. Isn't that right Miss McCall?"
The comment caught McCall off guard, nearly made her jump. "Excuse me?"
"The report we got from the Pursuer included some paragraphs describing your contribution and selflessness. Your actions saved some important lives yesterday."
This confused the young woman, whom could only mutter a "umm....thanks?" as she wasn't expected to get any form of recognition.
"There is something that is confusing us deeply, and something that is giving us a good amount of concern." Nora turned to Starkov. "Why did this council receive reports of your men attacking a select part of the city that no where near the criminal breakout or the skirmish at Downtown Heartania?"

- Crimson - Crimson maintained eye contact without hesitation, "Oh I've heard o' ya, alright, and you ain't feared." (beat) "No I'd say that title goes to your boss, after all she is the face of the operation. What are you? A mook? And you "snuff out" as many lives are you please... but killing... killing is an art." Crimson barged his way out of Inferno's grasp and began to pace, maintaining eye contact. "You can paint as many pieces as you like, but if those are all shit-smeared canvases... then you aren't an artist. You're a nutjob with bowel problems. I took pride in my work. No, someone with your set of skills finds it so easy, that you don't even have to try." Crimson's voice was beginning to fill the room, finishing with his voice in a bark, "And trying is the fun part." "Don't even test me. Cos my head is working so fast that I already know what you're feeling and I've already figured out.... that one well placed bullet would take you down. And I'm a excellent shot." Crimson caught his breath, adrenaline carrying him away. He turned to Reaver quickly, "So are we actually doing this or not?"

- Inferno -
Inferno laughed. Not her usual condescending laugh but a laugh that meant a lot of trouble. She clutched her stomach, bending over from laughing too hard. Catching herself she gasped for air, mixed in with a few giggles. She pushed down her laughter. She stared at Crimson.
"Oh boy, I've not laughed like that in a long time. Calling killing someone an art, that'd get some laughs. No, it's more like a song, one endless song of the screaming, howling pain of other writhing on the ground. You think, in a fight, in an all out serious fight you could beat me" She took a step closer. "Kid, you're outmatched, by experience and power." She took another step closer. "I like you kid, You've got some courage to stand up to me." She took another step. "And, if you ever try it again, I'll make sure you look like a turkey dinner. And you better shut up." She whispered into his ear.
She looked up at Reaver, "Reaver, When will be finished with this waiting? I want to hurry up."

"At least we agree on one thing!" Crimson snarked, chuckling as he looked to Reaver.
The truth was that Crimson felt insulted. He hadn't expected her to have much value in human life, but he did expect for her to at least respect the art of murder. A song, one endless song of the screaming, howling pain of the other writhing on the ground. Felicia Trop was definitely one of the shit-smearers Crimson'd spoken about. No finesse at all; she made Reaver look like the guy with the robots; the chess-master behind the attacks the night before Crimson had emerged in Heartania.
