Blood had eventually made it back to base after trashing the motorcycle when it ran out of gas, literally just...ripped it in half at how shitty its mileage was. After that he jacked a car and drove the rest of the way, he gauged it was around...3 AM by now. Meh. He'd dropped off his armor at the repair shop, as busted and mangled as it was, and was now simply resting in the bunks. It was a good thing vampires didn't exactly [i]NEED[/i] sleep or he wouldnt've made it back to base. He sighed heavily. Silver had apparently either lost track of him driving so fast, or simply decided to leave. Either way, as long as that asshole Yamada corp guy hadn't got to her again he was sure she'd be fine.

He stretched out across his bed, scratching his sword against the tile, much to the annoyance of everyone in the room. One man opened his mouth to say something, Blood glared and growled lowly, the other on the bunk beside him motioned for him to shut up. The outside world was pure chaos, all over the ghouls were ravaging cities along with HIVE and Purge. Shit had hit the proverbial fan hard enough to break it, there was no fan anymore. Just a pile of mushed up shit.

Erick nodded and made his way down the path and up out of the sewer, directly outside the stadium and ran in. "I'm here ready for pickup, as are two of your agents." He spoke into comms, rifle drawn, scanning all around him. It'd appeared the rest of the forces had left, at-least for now...good. He sighed. "So. What happened to your buddy?" Erick asked. He figured if he was stuck down here he might as well make conversation, better than staring out at nothing.

John sat in a room filled with monitors, many of them streaming news feeds about the on-going chaos in the world. A few, however, were helmet cams linked to each Project X member. Useful for monitoring and providing assistance. Currently Erick appeared to be traveling through the sewers with two other Freelance agents awaiting pick-up and to deliver intel. Interesting...John kept watching and listening, curious to hear this information for himself and what was so important about it. Even more curious to see the inside of the Freelance base, if he could incorporate part of their technology into his he'd be nigh unstoppable.

He smirked at the mere thought of Project X being the ultimate savior to all known races and what power he would wield..
