Grana noticed Alaena's red eye and wisely decided not to mention anything about her crying. Noticing all the people who seemed to want cleanup duty, Grana shrugged. "Very well then. I'll go fight Inshi with you, Peter. Just to make sure there aren't any traps. Besides, if Inshi is smart, he'll lock himself in a room so that we can't enter. If I use my ability, he'll be a rat stuck in his own cage, unable to get help from his subordinates. I won't screw up- not this time." Grana was determined to succeed and redeem himself. "Does everyone know what they're doing? If so, then let's hurry. Each second buys Inshi time to build defenses and Tozani inches every closer to the realization that I'm not dead."

After getting everything set up just the way she liked it in the inn room, which was pretty easy to do since she still had little to no possessions, Sammi headed back downstairs, since there was no alert to anyone else coming up via the staircase, save for a quick up and down. Not finding anything else of interest in her room that didn't belong to her...yet..., she headed back downstairs to see what the hold up was.

She overheard talk of reinforcements, and then Grana spilled the beans so to speak, mentioning that he and Peter would be attacking some Inshi guy. He seemed to know a lot about him. At this point Sammi decided to speak up.

"Hey!" she interjected. "You're not planning on going to off somebody without bringing me along for the fun, are ya? I may have gotten tagged, but I still got at least one good arm. Come on, what are we doing? Killing more thugs? I can totally do that."

"Look, I'm not gonna go fight Inshi. I got something else in mind. Even if we beat him, we need a way to make sure he stays down. We need to strike him where it hurts. We need to at least make sure that his men won't be able to counter attack. Send them into a state of confusion and powerlessness." Peter got up, walked to the door and stepped out.

"Ok... we all know what we're going to do? Ok... Alaena should stay behind a little until things go down, and Grana and I will split off from the group. Once everything is done, hopefully this will give us an opening to attack Tozani."

"I'll be sure to stay back a bit from all of you, at least until we get there. I'll be traveling by the rooftops, so just give me a little signal when you want things to go down Peter," Alaena said as she stood up, putting the quiver on her back and grabbing her bow. She went over to the one window in the room and opened it, climbing out of it and using Geppo to make it to the roof on the other side of the street.

'I am really out of it if I can't make such a simple jump without using Geppo,' she thought to herself, kneeling down and waiting for the others to exit the building to follow.

"I'll wait for you guys outside. I'll start clearing a path to Inshi as soon as we're all ready." Yoje jumped out the window Alaena had opened and landed close to her position, only on the ground instead of the rooftops. He looked over in the direction of Inshi's resort. A long fight's coming up. I hope Peter Grana and Jacque can act fast.

"Alright, I gotta drop some stuff off in my room and I'll meet you guys out front." Hal said as exited the room and stepped across the hall into the room he was claiming for himself. The first thing he did was set his briefcase on the nearest table. Money wouldn't do him much good in this fight and he had been carrying all that cash around for too long as it was. Then he sat down on the bed and changed the bandages on his wounds. With a sigh of relief, he noted that the bleeding had mostly stopped already. Now he could fight with no worries.

He went back downstairs and stepped outside the inn to wait for the other to be ready and lit up another cigarette. "Man... Can't believe a guy like me is gonna be taking on gangs like this." Hal muttered as he exhaled.

It looked like the teams were set now. Peter, Grana and the Birdman would be going for the head honcho while Yoje, Alaena, the merchant and Sammi would be the first wave, taking out the lower level thugs. OK, time for these bastards to pay for what they did to my arm.

The Bouncer was set up outside the building where Alaena had set her set up. The Resort was a massive complex. This bugger that the other three would be looking for could be anywhere. As the ground support, Sammi took a position right next to the...man. "I'm ready when you are. Let's kill these buggers."

"Ok... I'll try to cut off their communications. Whoever is going after Inshi, make a rush for it once the distraction starts..." He waited for Alaena to fire the first shot. Her being at a distance would give the others a chance to make a preemptive strike. He walked outside and separated from the others. "Ok... there needs to be an area where they keep this place powered... just need to find it."

Alaena looked down at the massive Ivory resort in front of her, kneeling down to one knee on the roof across from it to get a good view. She saw very few tourists and quite a number of goons, which was perfect for her. She grabbed a few arrow bombs, quickly aiming and letting the arrows loose.

While the carnage, explosions, and yelling were going on below she made a mental note to ask Peter if he could help with some trick arrow ideas she had in mind. After throwing that thought into the back of her head she grabbed out her normal arrows and started to fire at those coming out from the resort.

Hal had just finished his cigarette when the explosions went off. It was hard to find a good choke point to ambush people at since the resort was so big, but discovered he'd picked a pretty decent one when a group of thugs came pouring out of the resort right next to him. He took a deep breath and sunk into his stance. As soon as the first one stepped into range, Hal used shave to speed right in front of the thug, draw his sword and slit the man's throat in one motion before using shave to get away. He repeated this maneuver a few times before he had to stop and catch his breath, also giving the surviving thugs time to realize what had happened and come after him.

At this point he ran and turned down the nearest alley, making sure the thugs could see where he was going and follow him into his trap. Alright. Hopefully that'll draw enough of them away to create an opening for the others Hal thought as he waited for the remaining thugs to turn down the alley. As soon as the first one rounded the corner, Hal shaved towards him and went for the kill. Once again, it was all over in a matter of seconds with only one survivor. Hal let the man go, hopefully to get more men to come after him. "I ain't gonna win this all by myself, but I'll make one hell of a decoy I think." Hal said with a grin as he stopped to catch his breath once more.

Yoje decided to start his attack at the main entrance. He transformed into his full kangaroo form and hopped in front of the entrance, where thugs were still rushing out to deal with the attack. Yoje leaned back, using his tail to keep himself up. Tempest Kick Cannon! He began rapidly kicking out with both legs, sending a barrage of wind blades at any thugs near the entrance to the resort. Hopefully, the way in would be clear now.

'Alright so in the crew we have a few devil fruit users, and surprisingly a few people that also know some Rokushiki. This is certainly an interesting bunch,' Alaena thought to herself as she watched Yoje and Hal help out with Inshi's men. Seeing other people use Rokushiki brought Alaena back to when she was undercover as a new marine in training. She smiled fondly at the memory of a good time in her life; jerking out of the memories as quickly as they had ended in real life as a bullet whizzed past her ear. Responding with a slew of arrows down at the group firing at her she focused back on what she currently needed to do.

That always sucks.

Grana's eyes widened as he heard the air shriek and a few men gargle incoherently on their own blood. "Alright, that's signal enough for me! Go, go, go!" Grana began to sprint towards the massive oaken gate leading to the resort, covered by Yoje's Kick Cannon. Grana offered a quick thumbs up as he ran for the gate. Quickly, Inshi's men began to drop the gate, to ensure the intruders couldn't intrude. "Sorry boys, but you guys picked the wrong man to try this against!" Grana laughed as he leaped forward and phased through the gates. He appeared on the other side in the midst of a group of Yarrakonas. "G'evening, gentlemen. May I help you?" Grana flicked his moonlit blade from its sheath, the metal rasping like the tongue of death. Grana was the first to move, diving backwards, hacking at a man's arm to gain his sword. Grana sheathed his own sword, removed the severed hand from the grip of the blade, and using that blade himself. Grana gained two more blades in the same manner, holding them between the knuckles on his right hand. He reached out and stole two more swords. "Four...Five...Almost there!" So though Grana as he fended off a volley of attacks. Grana seemed as a flash of light in his white suit, attacking and then disappearing before anyone could react. Finally Grana acquired two more swords. He began to laugh diabolically, knowing that this was it for them. "Magic-Magic: Meteor Shower."

Having said this, Grana dropped all seven blades, point first, into the ground. They all sank into the cold embrace of the dirt as Grana sprinted towards the nearest gang member, without any weapon to his name. Grana reached out... And cut down the Yarrakona as one of the seven blades appeared in his hand. He twisted and threw it at the first Yarrakona he saw, dashing after his blade. Two more swords appeared in his hands, and Grana treated them the same way, cutting down a Yarrakona or two before hurling the katanas at a different member, sure of a new blade appearing in his hands. There were always at least four blades flying through the air at any one time, and with the dying twilight gleaming off the blades, the technique truly looked like its celestial namesake. Grana stopped and twisted like a corkscrew, slamming six blades into the ground. They disappeared, reappearing in in a circle around Grana, impaling the final few Yarrakonas around himself. His deadly dance complete, Grana reached behind his head with the seventh sword, and threw it towards the man operating the chain the closed the gates. The spinning sword, rotating like a bullet in flight, buried itself within the unlucky Yarrakona, causing him to let go of the chain due to his minor inconvenience. But even as the gate rose, admitting Peter and the others entry, more Sparrows flocked into the courtyard, like worker bees protecting the hive. "Hurry up, they're coming!" Grana warned.

Inshi heard the explosions and saw a few attacks happening, scrambling to the snail on his desk. "Security! Get to the front desk! Send in everyone available!" He readied his spear for any intruder, getting near the door.
[hr]
Peter took the chance during all the commotion to sneak out to the outside areas, sneaking into a small shack. "Bingo. Power grid. Sorry, Grana, you're gonna have to walk or ask Jacque for a ride." He reached into his sack and pulled out what looked to be a bunch of dark blue marbles. He threw them all around important machinery and stepped outside, loading a Heavy Shot into his pistol. Big Bang Spread! He fired at the blue spheres inside, and once it hit the first one, it detonated, and the explosion caused the others in close proximity to detonate. The chain of explosion wrecked the machines inside, and the power through the resort was cut off.

"Ok... now I need to cut off their communications." He ran off when he saw a couple thugs heading towards the sight of the explosion.
[hr]
Inshi growled, but then the lights shut off. "Dammit all! Is it the Budero family?!" He yelled, but the response was "No sir, it seems to be a band of pirates! The power's been cut!" "Well get back to fixing it!" "Sir, whoever did this totaled everything here!" Inshi slammed his fist on the wall. "Send the Lieutenants to take care of the front area! Take care of this as soon as possible! And stop word of this from leaking out!" He looked out the window, trying to formulate what to do next.
[hr]
Although they had missed Grana and Hal, a large mob of men had run to the scene from various directions. In the back, there were about a dozen men, each dressed in a formal suit as opposed to the leather jackets and torn pants of the thugs in front of them. While the grunts wielded various weapons from chains to pistols to fire axes to sabers, 6 of the men in the back wielded a spear with a long, curved blade while the other 6 handled a katana. The one in the center shouted out and sent the grunts charging towards the crew.

Alaena scowled at the new group of men that had come to join the current fray. 'Most seem just like the others, but those guys in the back...' She carefully took out more of the men who were in direct threat to her and the others, making sure that each arrow would fatally wound them. After making sure that none of the crew were within blast range she fired a bomb into the dozen men wearing formal suits, waiting to see what would happen before making her next move.

Yoje frantically looked around. Thugs were closing in on the resort, and him, from all directions. I can't let any of these guys get inside. This should be a challenge, at least.
Still in full kangaroo form, he shot another barrage of Tempest Kicks in one direction. He let the thugs on the other sides close in, figuring he wouldn't have to fight everyone at once this way. As a group closed in on him, he Shaved into the sky, above the side he was previously attacking. Moon Rocket! With both feet, Yoje used a Moon Step behind him at full force, sending him barreling into the thugs directly in front of the Resort. Unfortunately, he had missed one behind him, who swung a chain around and caught Yoje by the neck, choking him.

'Impressive. He had to have been trained extensively to be that good. Must inquire further at a later time,' Alaena thought to herself, watching Yoje use numerous Rokushiki techniques against the mob of men against him. Her attention went back to where she had used an arrow bomb, her eyebrow raising when she saw the dozen of men coming out of it relatively unscathed.

"Tougher, like I expected," she muttered as she drew a normal arrow, watching as a few of the suited men broke off from their group to come after her on the roof. She was about to fire at the one closest to her when she noticed that Yoje wasn't bouncing around taking care of some of the men. After finding him being choked by a man she had a second to decide. She could either fire on one of the men about to attack her before they got to her, or help save Yoje.

"Dammit," she said as she fired an arrow at the man choking Yoje. There was no time for her to make sure that her arrow had hit (though she had no doubt in her mind that it did) before the two suited men were on her. She dodged a katana attack from one of them, countering him with a punch in the face before having to dodge the other's attack.

Sorry for my lack of posts lately. I have been busy and getting abit lost with the plot. I think I'm fine atm and just assume that Jacque was in the background during my absent.
Despite the danger they were all in Jacque had been having a blast dealing with all of these thugs. He had been striking them down with ease but not getting cocky about it.
He saw that one of the thugs had his chain wrap around Yoje. He stick his rapier out as he dash toward Yoje aid as if he had blasted toward him like a cannon.
The tip of his rapier stuck within the tiny gap in the chain. He turns his blade around like a key which the chain started to crack. The crack expand throughout the chain causing it to break apart, freeing Yoje from suffocation.
The thug stood there shock at what he's seeing until it was too late. Jacque had simply shot him in the chest as the thug fell onto his back.

He checks on Yoje "Are you ok? Twoo?"

Yoje morphed to his human form and placed a hand to his neck while gasping to recover breath. "Yeah...I'm fine, Jacque...Thanks. Now... aren't you supposed to be going after Inshi? The rest of us can handle these guys."
Even as he spoke, Yoje was beginning to breathe normally again. He decided to celebrate by roundhouse kicking his nearest opponent square in the stomach, doubling him over. A kick to his chin sent the man flying into another thug who was about to fire a rifle at him. I can't let my guard down like that again.
