The ninja wove his way through the crowds before coming to a temporary halt and listening to Ms. Carver's speech. The man quietly thanked God that the speech was finally over so he could get this job over with. He wanted to be done with all this as soon as possible. As he walked in search of the Architect, he was suddenly grabbed and tensed his body for a moment until he recognized the person holding onto him. An incredibly gorgeous woman was attached to his arm and leading him, and a bold one at that, openly talking about his exploits. Honestly he was less interested in what she was saying than what she was wearing as he walked over to the VIP area, taking a moment to pause in front of the fabric.

Looking at her, he smiled beneath his mask, "Well I wouldn't mind if you scratched me, Ruby. Maybe later, yeah?" He promptly made his way through the fabric, doubting the woman would actually be interested. She seemed to be one of those snooty high-class types who believes themselves to be above everyone else.

The officer strolled around through the crowds looking for any potential assailants, but it was nearly pointless. Everyone was in costume and if they weren't, they were wearing masks. The party did seem to unnerve Elizabeth though as she noticed all the guards. The people here seemed to be expecting something, perhaps because of all the recent drama over the Supers. She grabbed a shrimp as Ms. Carver spoke, [i]Clean energy huh? Seems interesting, but how?[/i] Collins shrugged off the thought and returned to her search. The Executioner would no doubt be obvious, but perhaps the bank robbers were here, somewhere...

The rattle of ammunition carried through the underground tunnels of the sewers, as well as thunderous footsteps. The armored man paused for a moment at a crossing, his body lit by a few shafts of light passing through the grate overhead, "Left here... Almost there. Hopefully this place can tell me something..." The tank disappeared once more into the gloom.
