Cheng had almost lost track of Hanare when the crowds had started running, and from the sound of her voice, it seemed she'd been caught in a bad way. However, by the time he'd spotted her, Hanare was crouched among a pile of broken I-men and unharmed. Nearby, a young Whale Houser was plinking at the automatons with his fists and Cheng raised an eyebrow at his sudden arrival. [color=708090]"Hanare? You alright?"[/color] Cheng came to her side, helping steady her up and brushing off a patch of dust that'd gotten on her uniform. [color=708090]"Sorry, I was sure you'd made it out already. Do you still have-"[/color] Before Cheng could finish his question, a band of at least twelve new I-men emerged from the auditorium entrance. They crept into a wide half-circle intending to enclose the pair of Squids and prevent their attendance. Cheng took a step back from the ring, only to bump into a Dragon House student he'd recognized from one of his classes. Thomas... Tony... Something like that. The boy had apparently been deprived of his pen, if his defeated, glum face was anything to go by. Not even his powers had helped, which Cheng found a little strange. If he recalled correctly, the kid was able to mold his arms into twisted shapes, abnormally tough bones transformed into all manner of weaponry. [color=708090]Hanare, I've got an idea. Ready for a mental takeover?[/color] Cheng grabbed hold of the student, reaching into his pocket for something to provide Hanare with a means to control him. He struggled, protesting and cursing at the Orion, but Cheng found hold of a keychain and tossed it to his housemate. [color=708090]"His arms can form weapons! Let's use him to get some heat off our tail."[/color]
