The blue-haired Celestial paused for a moment as Nanoha intervened, looking as if she wanted to say something to the girl before deciding to step down instead. As things were right now, it wasn't worth the effort to destroy the screen in front of them (especially since it wouldn't really [i]do[/i] anything for her), and so Tenshi let out a huff and took a step back from the screen.

"Fine. Whatever," she remarked, arms crossed as she watched Mordred unceremoniously excuse herself from the whole ordeal. "Hey, if you're leaving, I'm coming too. No point in being forced to sit quietly as people insult me from half the world away."

With that, Tenshi quietly followed after Mordred, a smirk on her face as she watched Youmu balk on the other side of the screen. Private Minami seemed as if she was about to try and stop them, but in the end seemed to decide against it and simply let her shoulders sag in defeat.

"I, erm... Apologize on behalf of those two for their behavior," she said, quietly glancing away from the screen before shaking her head. "In any case... I believe it would be best to ascertain what Miss Yakumo's and Altair's current plans are before we attempt anything more than disaster control in our region. If it comes to resources, however, the Japanese government is already willing to help supply everyone present with whatever you need."

"The US government is as well, though, at this point it depends more on what incidents you end up resolving," Mr. Sharpton added from the side, nodding his head. "I can't say that anything that manipulates the space-time continuum or affects parallel universes won't also be heavily desired by every other nation in the world, though; in fact, if my superiors caught wind of the fact that you had success, well... You probably understand by now."

Yuyuko simply nodded, glaring at Tenshi and Mordred as they exited the room on the other side of the screen before closing her fan and sighing. It was a bit odd, having people talk about her best friend's actions without even consulting her, but if there was any time to speak up, it would likely be now.

"I don't believe it would be too hard to convince Yukari to aid us," she remarked, pointing at Klaus with her fan. "The problem is, however, that she likely has her reasons in cooperating with whoever is behind this; I know for a fact that she would never directly intervene in the Outside World without any reason, much less with parallel universes or what have you."

"Hm... Well, it would be helpful if we could ask her directly, but given what happened last night I'm not sure if she's in a 'talking' mood..." the Private responded, glancing at Nanoha for a moment before turning her attention back towards the screen. "If either side wishes to fly over and meet the other, however, that can be arranged. Despite the dangers present in your current line of research, I do believe that creating such a thing might also force our targets out of hiding. For the moment, though, introductions do seem to have concluded. Is there anything in particular you would like to ascertain from the other side? Please, do feel free to speak your mind if you so wish."

The question, of course, was directed at both parties. Even with two less people on one end of the discussion, there was still likely a lot to be gleaned from this line of discussion.

"Ah, um..."

Leo sat off to the side, somewhat speechless at the direction that the whole conversation had taken. He hadn't yet seen Youmu this mad at someone, so that was worrisome in and of itself... But on the other hand, it was good that Klaus was thinking about the problem from another angle. All this talk of dimensional travel, however, was making him feel a bit uneasy. It was as Klaus said, after all; the Great Collapse had irrevocably changed their New York City into Hellsalem's Lot, and so he himself really couldn't put all of his confidence into the plan that had been proposed.

"I... I have a question!" he suddenly shouted as he raised his hand, giving away that his entire body was tensed up in the current atmosphere. "E-erm... I remember hearing that similar incidents were happening all over the world, but no one really told us anything more than what we already know happened here in New York. I'd think that all sorts of stuff happened in Tokyo as well, but... Have you heard anything from any other countries?"

"Hm... Well, since any further talk of dimensional travel might be intercepted by other parties, it might be best to leave this line of conversation to a time where the relevant parties can meet up in person," Mr. Sharpton said, arms crossed as he continued. "The short answer: Yes. The internet is a veritable goldmine of information right now, and despite the fact that many nations are trying to hide their current situations, it is fairly obvious that a few might have already been compromised. Any more than that is classified information, but I would still recommend we place the safety of the US and Japan first at the moment. It would do us no good, after all, if our bases were compromised."

It was fairly obvious what Mr. Sharpton's goals were, but Leo did have to admit that he had a point. With that being said, though, if they did succeed in winning Yukari over to their side, then it was possible to start fixing up all the problems that had piled up in front of them, if only a little.

Maybe. Hopefully?

[h2][center]Shokuhou Misaki[/center][/h2]
Once Hibiki had woken up, the three girls had promptly gotten up to start their walk towards Ikebukuro. Seeing Ben already having arrived at their intended destination despite not having been told as much, though, was... Odd. And somewhat creepy, to be quite honest.

"Hm... I don't see any police blocking off the area..." Misaki said to herself quietly before turning towards Miku. "Last night, you said there was building damage, right? What caused it again?"

"Oh, I think it was closer to the center of the city..." she began to respond, only to freeze up for a moment and grab onto Hibiki's hand. "Hibiki, look!"

Following Miku's finger as she pointed towards a towering office building a little ways off, Misaki could barely make out the silhouette of what seemed to be a wolf as it stood tall for a moment. It took a few moments for the beast to move, with speed abnormal for a creature of that size, and Misaki watched as it leaped from rooftop to rooftop without much delay.

"A... Wolf?" she asked as a [url=https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/durarara/images/e/e0/Celty.png/revision/latest?cb=20110806032348]biker with a yellow helmet[/url] covering their head drove up to them. Instead of talking like she had expected, however, the biker quickly pulled out a phone and began typing a message before showing it to the group.

"What are you doing here?! Haven't the police told you it's dangerous in Ikebukuro right now?!
Go get somewhere safe; there's no reason for you to get hurt."

After a few moments, the biker silently pocketed the cellphone that had just been shown before speeding off after the wolf, passing by a girl staring at a vending machine in the process.

"Erm... That was... Odd..." Misaki trailed off, realizing a few moments after the fact that she had been unable to read the biker's thoughts at all. "Should we follow after her? I think she's definitely hiding something about all of this, but..."
