* Samuel opened the box and threw the helmet at Hideki while talking. *

Samuel: Semi-Powered Infiltration Armor, Mark V. It has a few enhancements over Kaine's old Mark IV, like a debugged and revamped Heads-Up-Display, better joint mobility and improved shock absorption system on the lower section. This is the best the guys from project HAYABUSA have come up with so far.

Hideki: Wha? Why do you--

Samuel: You're gonna need it to rescue your future ex-wife. Your dad already taught you basic Kontrolle, right?

Hideki: Koppo's energy control exercises? Yeah, even some of the advanced ones.

Samuel: Excellent. Pick that up and come with me then.

Hideki: Where to?

Kelly: Just go, already. This armor is not something you can just wear like a shirt, you have to know how to control it. Kontrolle is the base for that. Samuel is going to help you don the armor while I explain to everyone what we are going to be facing, okay?

* Hideki was almost as lost as Shouko, he could say by the face she was making. He stood there looking at the helmet Samuel had given him, not knowing what to do or say. *

Hideki: So you're saying that... if I use this I can rescue Rina?

Kelly: Well, it's kind of obvious that Kaine is working for whoever kidnapped her. With his armor, Kaine is almost 5 times as strong as you, he just wasn't fighting seriously enough yesterday, so yes, IF you want to rescue Rina, you'll need this.

Hideki: I see. Let's go, Samuel.

* Hideki put the helmet back in the box and lifted it, following Samuel out of the room. Kelly looked at her watch then at Shouko. *

Kelly: The others should be here shortly. Want something to drink or eat in the meantime?

*Aki and Daiki had arrived at Kelly's place at the same time that Kunikida did.*

Aki: Ohayou, Kunikida-sempai.

Kunikida: Ohayou Aki-chan, Daiki-kun...shall we go in?

*The two kitsunes nodded and Kunikida knocked on the door. Kelly had answered and when she saw the threew of them she ushered them in. Offering them a seat and some drinks. Aki sat beside Shouko and Daiki sat beside Aki. Kunikida took a chair opposite them that was nearer to Kelly's seat.*

Aki: Ne, where is Hideki-sempai?

Shouko: Out trying some armor...

Aki: Eh? Armor?

Kunikida: That's something Kelly-san has to explain too.

*Kelly returned with some drinks and with everyone looking at her curiously.*

Kelly: What? Oh, yes...I have to explain what happening, huh? Well why don't we wait for that Mike fellow and the dog demon to arrive before I start. *Right at that time someone had knocked and Kelly went to answer it, she came back with Kimara in tow.* Well, one more and we can begin...

((I shall leave the explaining to z2k... ))

[Raine]

Shouko:where's the dog girl?

Kunikida:Kimara-chan,maybe she will come later...

shouko:ah...i didn't expect all rina's friends to be here i can't tell hideki about rina if they are hereah you guys going to rescue rina too?

Kunikida:of course...

shouko:tch...how bothersome...

Kunikida:what do you mean???

shouko:*she turn to look at kunkida inspecting from down to up*all im saying is that if you come....you'll be dead in an instant

[Zeratul2k]

Kelly: Oh, but not everyone is going to fight, miss Shouko. Kunikida, for example, will be in charge of hacking into the servers of our main suspects.

Kunikida: Me? Hacking? As if I could do anything like--

Kelly: Don't worry, "akasper", I think you'll manage just fine.

* Kunikida stared at Kelly with his mouth hanging open in disbelief as Kelly freely gave away the nickname he used when hacking systems. *

Kunikida: ... since when do you...

Kelly: Since before I met you in person, actually.

Kunikida: What? Does that mean--

Kelly: As I said, I'll explain everything once everyone is here.

[Raine]

*shouko sigh,she really didnt want to spend a day with these people*

shouko:i can't help but see what Rina seem to like in you guys...your all here for Rina..why??You don't know her that well....i wonder if you all will stay with her till the end or just run away from her....

*shouko turn her head unable to meet their eyes,*

[yuki_tenshi]

*Aki bristled at the indirect and probably unintended insult.*

Aki: Of course we're going to stay with Rina-chan until the end! She's our friend besides if we didn't care for her we wouldn't even be here.

*Daiki had put a calming hand on Aki's shoulder, the little kitsune was still glaring at Shouko but kept quiet.*

Daiki: Don't underestimate us Shouko-san, and even if we don't know Rina-chan as well as you say we'll always be there for her or at least try. Everyone has a secret that they keep for themselves...

Kimara: Why would we run away from Rina-chan in the first place?

Daiki: That's a good question...do you know the answer Shouko-san? *Daiki's piercing green eyes were looking straight through Shouko, making her squirm a little.*

[oldwrench]

*Mike made it to Kelly's place, late as usual. Standing outside he tried to decide what to do. He had to help his friends, he was sure they would try to find Rina, and if they could try to rescue her. They wouldn't know what they were doing, they hadn't had military training. Ya, Hideki was good at fighting, but he wouldn't have a clue how to attack armor. Trying to attack with his bare hands, he'd be mush in minutes.*

*Mike Opened the door and stepped in.*

Mike, a bit loudly: Hideki, if you think you can go up against armor your an idiot, you can't fight armor unless you have........... Hideki came in followed by Samuel*........ Armor????? Where the heck did you get that???.

*Mike frowned, that was some of the latest model armor, no way it should be here. And no way an untrained civilian could use it effectively.*

Mike: I don't know how you got that, but those things aren't easy to use. You think you'd be a match for someone who has experience? ....... *Mike had a nasty smile.* I think maybe I should teach you.

[oldwrench]

*Mike looked around the room, seems everyone was there. And Aki, was sitting next to Daiki........ Mike felt his heart sink, he hoped she might be alone....... Mike sat against the wall, he wanted badly to leave, but his friends would need him, he could give Hideki at least some training, and Mike knew more about military tactics and equipment than anyone in the group. This would have to be a military type operation.*

[yuki_tenshi]

*Daiki had followed Mike's movements with his eyes without looking so. He seemed to be down in spirits and reluctant, he glanced beside him and he thought he knew why Mike was like that.*

Daiki: Ne, Kelly-san since everyone is already here...why don't you tell us what you wanted to tell us?

[Raine]

*Shouko ignore aki and daiki,she hated the boy's guts first of all if they weren't Rina's Friend he would have kill that boy,But due to respect she didn't when Michael barge in she shook her head This guy over thinks too much....is his entrance always so dramatic...seeing him glancing at Aki and daiki,she felt pity,but pity isn't the word to say after all matters of the heart is something more painful than any physical damages.looking at hideki*

Shouko:Explain so we can settle on rescuing Rina....

Kunikida:but Kimara hasn't come yet/...

*As soon as kunikida said that Kimara barge in,bumping with Michael,she raised to her feet Bowing*

Kimara:Gomenasai!!i lost track of time.....I ah*she sees Aki sitting next to Daiki,her heart sank but she smile and sat near Kunkida*

Kimara:what did i miss?

Shouko:Nothing much...lets get this going shall we,we've wasted enough time...
