The Nuclear Base/Power Plant.

[Chibi MitchellTF]

The Police-catgirl ushers Genno and Elise to the back of the car, which has Rose inside. Black Jack and Pinoko are also ushered in. It's really more of a 'van' then a car.

The catgirl smiles. "Ever since I was a little boy, my mom always told me to help pretty girls. Now that I AM a pretty girl, that hasn't changed."

When she helps Genno and Elise over the last bump, she steps outside and closes the door, locking it. They're now stuck inside with Black Jack, Pinoko, and an Unconscious Rose.


Meanwhile, Xiao gets back to the powerplant, and sees a few police officers handcuffing Neko, who is making a big fuss. They also have an unconscious Catnip.

Tetsuo is successful in getting out, by simply using the same way she got in. Unfortunately, she accidentially enabled the 'decontamination' sequence, which leaves her and The Boss covered in foam. They got to the roof safely, only to see the same thing that Xiao sees.

<-- (OOC: Is confused about the whole foam thing... What kind of foam, anyway? Soapy foam, the sticky foam, or...? Yeah, I'm lost. X_X But now it's time for me bed time... I hope it's not a bother to pause the rooftop scene until I know about this foam stuff. Sorry. *Collapses* Z_Z)

[Mistress Guendolen]

Elise settled down on the seat with a sigh; hardly realizing she was doing it, she leaned against Genno's side a bit. "So," she said to Doctor Jack, "what exactly is this about you practicing without a license?"

(Soapy foam. *Gives Nikkou a MemoryFoam pillow*)

Black Jack smiles. "I decided to get rid of my license. It was a bit restrictive, and caused a certain 'incident'. The medical board in Japan, where I practiced, is corrupt. It is filled with simpering idiots who can't tell the Occipitofrontalis from the Peristalsis . They only care about fattening their pockets. Not to mention that they judge people's abilities based on group averages, and are afraid of risky surgeries because they could get sued for malpractice. People who are rich only have to pay a fraction of their income, while the people who really deserve it have to pay everything they have. So I even the score. If a trillionare wants the most beautiful face in the world for his wife, then he has to pay a price worthy of the most beautiful face. Then maybe someone could have the money to save two women who deserved better..."

Black Jack's face is hidden from view, hidden by his hair, bisecting his face into two halves.

[Mistress Guendolen]

Elise knew there was something in there he wasn't telling, at the end. But she decided not to push for it. There was no point in so doing, really. "Then why, when we first... dropped in... on you, did you talk about how expensive it would be? Was that your way of testing the waters or what?" If he operated this way, it peeved her slightly that he would think they must be the self-centered and undeserving wealthy.

[Chibi MitchellTF]

"Because I'm not an angel myself. I do have expenses, after all."

Pinoko nods. "And he has his Iriomote Cat Breeding Center on that island he bought."

[Mistress Guendolen]

"Well, yes, I understand that, but you said you based the price on need, right? And it was obvious we weren't wealthy.... Or so I should think. And... cat-breeding center?..." Elise blinked a little, slightly confused. "Why... what on earth for?..."

[Mitera Nikkou]

"How do we get to the airship from here...?" Tetsuo asked of the Boss while she kept her eyes on the police, counting their numbers as well as keeping an eye out for when or if they see them. "And while we're at it, I hope we can manage to take them (OOC: in reference to Neko and Catnip) along with us as well."

She noticed Xiao, but she was more concerned about the police. While she was sure that her voice had probably alerted him to their presence behind him, she hoped that he wasn't in any condition or disposition to get in their way.

(OOC: Okay, now I need police numbers and positions on the roof, as well as what they're occupied with and what they have for weaponry. Dun-dun-dunnnn! Let us hope that the catgirls' attempt at escape does not turn out like a Clash song!)

[Chibi MitchellTF]

(The police on the ground are in a five-man squad, armed with batons, tasers, and guns. Two are handcuffing Neko, one has Catnip slung over his shoulder.)

The Boss is setting up a tripod. "We can break them outta jail as soon as I get my spare armor. This tripod allows us to teleport back to the airship. We just need to be here."

[Xiao]

Xiao heard Tetsuo's voice coming from the roof. Curious, he followed it up to the roof, it inself being a good place to leave anyway. "This some sort of grand escape? I would expect something more glamorous from someone who recently tried to dominate the world." he said walking towards them.

[Chibi MitchellTF]

The police who are holding Neko turn towards Xiao, seeing him as he approaches the roof. "Hey! Identify yourself! Good guy or bad guy?"

(The police never saw Tetsuo...Tetsuo's 'same way out' included a staircase inside the building to the roof.)

[Xiao]

Xiao glanced back towards the police, "Good guy, my identity is not important, just ask the others about me."

[Mitera Nikkou]

(OOC: Now I'm totally lost... Oh, well.)

"Well, I certainly don't want to even seem like I'm fighting authority right now... Although I'd expect them to foresee a jailbreak later on." Tetsuo murmured.

Tilting her head a bit to the side while she regarded the tripod thingy, she asked, "How will this help us to get out of here?"

[Chibi MitchellTF]

(Sorry. I didn't give a good enough description. Doesn't really matter now.)

The Boss grabs Tetsuo's hand, and presses a button on the tripod. Instantly, they are transported to the airship. "Like that."

Scientia is waiting on the airship, and is busy working on what looks like a very, very big gun.

The police officers nod to Xiao. "We're going to have to take you into custody so that we can confirm what is going on. Sorry."

[Teddy]

Genno remains silent... He's surrounded by people that have either saved his life or have tried to kill him at one point. Or Pinoko, who he found really, really, creepy.
