Tokyo Held Hostage
It had all gone perfectly. The occupation of the broadcast building had gone without a hitch. Even with the added security that came with the impending live interview with the Prime Minister's daughter, Shinobu's men were up the task. Most of said security were relatively unharmed, adding to the sizable amount of hostages they now had. They had had agents within the building's personnel for weeks, meticulously planning this out. In all, they had several dozen people soldiers, all ready to die if need be to secure their country.

Shinobu stood in front of the camera as it timed down to broadcast his message. "My fellow countrymen, I regret that events have grown so intolerable that I must resort to such methods in order to halt the degrading of culture and society. The American occupation of our land is a constant insult and a tumor of decay that is eating away at our proud homeland. Enough is enough, and it must end. For this reason, I have taken the Tokyo Broadcasting building hostage, as well as its entire staff. More importantly, I have in my custody our illustrious Prime Minister's daughter. Our demands are a simple one. All Americans stationed at the military base must leave immediately. This occupation will no longer be tolerated. For every hour you delay, hostages will be slain. Delay too long..and our Prime Minister's daughter will be added to the body count. I am saddened that this is what it comes to in order to jump-start our national pride, but you have only yourselves to blame for not acting sooner." And he ends the feed.

And the call comes in almost immediately, but Amiko is already in the midst of trying to bring together a plan.

"All right, people," she tells her team when they come together. "We have a hostage situation. An organized group thinks they can get rid of the Americans by threatening to kill a lot of people."

A pause. "One note in dealing with this; everyone is entitled to their personal opinions, but I trust I won't have to hear anything today about actually trying to get rid of the Americans."

	"It doesn't matter. Kidnapping people and threatening to kill them isn't the right way to accomplish anything," Kayura pointed out grimly. She did not like the idea of anyone being put in danger like that. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Hajime ponders what he's heard. "As I have understood their approach, the Americans do not negotiate with terrorists anyway, so there is little hope to stall them. Grogg, however, is very well known and popular. Perhaps if he appeared on the media to assure people the situation is being taken seriously, it will calm some of the panic - while Kayura does crowd control... reminds the authorities we are there, and makes sure no one escapes. She is alert and attentive. In the meanwhile... much as we are obviously saving everyone possible, the Prime Minister's daughter must take priority."

	Kayura just nods. Now that she has an idea of what she should be doing she sees little reason to speak up as she would have no idea how to deal with this as she deals with monsters. At least she knows people recognize her in armor as someone trustworthy. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

All to soon in the sense of preparation, though it can never be too soon in terms of prevention, they're on the scene. Amiko is pleased but unsurprised to see Grogg and Kayura get to work with the crowds and the cameras as she, Hajime, and Keiji try to carefully infiltrate the building, paying close attention to the location of outside security cameras, where guards could logically be posted in relation to windows, etc.

	Clockwork approaches a reporter as well, testing out his new voice synthesizer, typing rapidly against a keyboard that had been secured to his torso. "This one's most honored comrades and itself will make sure all is well. No being need die." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Kayura had to bite her lower lip to keep from giggling. Grogg as usual is just so adorable. She is very fond of him. She also is helping to reassure the crowd by simply being there and looking both brave and spiffy since apparently the crowd has a weakness for real live heroes.

It is a little embarrassing for her. She also doesn't speak to the public she just nods her head very slightly and pays attention to everything going on.

	Keiji followed closely behind Amiko and Hajime. When it was safe to talk, he spoke, "We'd best find a way in soon. In another half hour they will execute a hostage." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

As if on cue a voice rang out over the speakers. "It has been thirty minutes so far and no one has come forth to address our demands. I want someone from the Japanese government and whomever is leading the American occupation here, now. If not we are moving up a timetable from every hour to every forty-five minutes. We will show our resolve by sending you a body shortly thereafter!"

Amiko had already managed to check out a third-story window from every angle she could, enough to tell that it looked just right not to have a guard at or near it, only easily-disabled-without-notice outer sensors the two windows directly below it were at a good angle, too..

She'd already checked for the long coil of cord among her supplies, taken out her glider, and begun to prepare when
"May the gods save us all from attention whores," she mutters under her breath. "He'll get someone from the government all right. And an almost-American at that. I'll make sure you can follow in a moment."
She held her hands just beneath her glider as they went to their maximum heat level, and carefully, it started to lift up.

	Clockwork begins to chime, dropping to the ground and placing its palms against it. 'Sprouting' Vines grew up, entwining with the offered cord and reinforcing it, creating an easily accessible rope ladder for the party's more cumbersome members (itself and Grogg, most notably).

	Hajime nods to the offer, and begins to climb. After seven hundred years of climbing down a mountain face every morning, then back up, but carrying water - and repeating the process if he spilled any, it should be no surprise he's a very able climber, moving upward quickly and quietly.
