Each suit had their ears muffled or covered with their cotton, wine corks and even their own hands from the continuous roar of the Territory. With every shot that was fired, another one followed... and it wasn't just them. It was also their newly made allies who opened fire at the unnatural sight that took form before their very eyes and that in a matter of minutes, the tree fell... shelled to pieces by the combined forces of the Admiral and the Piper of Hamelin. Operation: Ragnarok Readvent was a success... at least for the most part. With a smile, Enzo turned to his army of suits. Both hands raised and spread outward. [color=f26522][b]Everyone! The Operation was a success!"[/b][/color] Loud cheers erupt from the gathering just below the academy's stage before he took out a whistle to blow into it and snap everyone out of their little victory. [color=f26522][b]"Hey! We're not out of the woods yet, gentlemen! Prepare all defenses for the night!"[/b][/color] The lights shine on the open crates on either side of the mafia heir and with a sequence, another set of suits ascended the steps to the stage and began throwing firearms for the crowd. Questions linger among them about what comes next. Each person set up with a rifle and a packet of ammunition or two. [color=f26522][b]"A lot of you aren't gonna be sleeping tonight and we're all going by shifts! I'm sure those bastards are gonna send their own over here after what we've done to their precious tree."[/b][/color] He announced just as the gatling guns were mounted on the walls, on the side of every entrance. Should anyone come this way, they will be met with lead and grudge. He isn't going to show any intruder mercy tonight or any night for that matter. Not even in the day time. With proud strides exiting the stage, he entered his office, a telephone on the desk ready for him as he returned. He bid his man out the door and dialed a few numbers to the men he distributed as a watchdog or a scout troupe in each district of Fuyuki. In his hand were numbers for every one (except the Foreigner's District where it was crossed out with one line down the middle). [i][color=f26522]"Piper, I want you to be ready for retaliation, whoever is angered with what we did will most likely come all the way here. I've already made preparations of my own, should the worst come on our side. Be ready to detonate everything you have."[/color][/i] Yes. Fuyuki will receive no quarter when this war is finished.

She was staring out her window where the two cars are parked just below. [color=A0522D]"Hello~ Miss Geneva speaking... ENZO! How great it is to hear the voice of our dear leader~"[/color] She giggled, twirling the cord. [color=f26522]"Cassandra..."[/color] Enzo's voice echoed over the vintage telephone. [color=f26522]"Report. Anything going around in the Native District?"[/color] Her finger stopped coiling around the wire, turning to the open sliding window out the building and looking at the chaos just ahead of their safehouse. [color=A0522D]"Oh that... well the whole place is..."[/color] A man passed by the building, yelling something in their native dialect and was eventually shot dead center by a rifleman in the balcony next to her. [color=A0522D]...in chaos... these nips are going wild. Destroying property, tagging walls with ink and screaming whatever-the-hell these people said. I have no idea what got them riled up... must be the lies the government said to them or something..."[/color] Now that she mentioned it, if the authorities aren't going to do something was wrong. The day they were sent out to be a scout team, Cassandra did notice that there was a local gang that was supposedly hostile against foreigners, the Yakuza, they call them. Neighborhood heroes so long as you're a Jap and are living here. Ah well. Not like racism mattered to her, a golden opportunity presents himself however... if the Yakuza aren't quelling this chaotic turn of events then maybe the mafia will. [color=A0522D]"Ah... Boss Enzo, can I make a request?"[/color] Silence followed, then a sigh. [color=f26522]"What is it?"[/color] [color=A0522D]"Could you send a few cars my way? I know what these nips can do for us~"[/color] [color=f26522]"...I'm listening..."[/color] [color=A0522D]"I was thinking we put a stop to the riots and the people hiding in our homes would gladly depend on us more... of course... it won't be immediate but gradually they'll warm up to us and distrust the lack of assistance than what the Yakuza are giving. Should they pose a problem, I don't mind killing a few monkeys in suits."[/color] [color=f26522]"Cars are a little much, I'll send two more and some carriages. Pull this off and you might get a raise."[/color] [color=A0522D]"Wonderful, many thanks Boss."[/color] Slamming the phone down, she stands up. Slinging a rifle over her and taking the revolver from the desk, she marched out with a handful of guys. Exiting the terrace, a few dozen... all armed and ready to regulate. If these rioters are smart, they wouldn't dare try to get near one of them lest they get shot. Gently opening the traditional gate and walking further to the source of the noise, she raised her pistol and fired six shots trying to get at them through fear. If a gun won't do it, perhaps a firing squad will... ...then again how is she supposed to know that these work on the Japs? It worked once on a casino in Las Vegas.
