Rooftop
Noriko nodded firmly. "Good. Nagi, as we discussed earlier, come to the Protector base sometime tonight or tomorrow. You two will need this information as well; here." She scribbled out the map she had given Nagi earlier on two more pieces of paper withdrawn from her pockets, and handed one to each of the other two Loners there. "Gavriil, Kouta, we need to get back to base." She gave one last look to the three mages gathered in front of her. "I'll instruct the rest of the Protectors to leave you alone should you need to travel through our territory. We're not in the business of harassing random magi, but. . ." Noriko fell uncharacteristically quiet. She didn't want to reveal the full extent of her thoughts at this time. "I look forward to meeting with you soon. If any of you find information, let me know as quickly as possible; we can't let that monster claim any more lives." With that, she turned and walked back downstairs into the building, Kouta in tow.
((Feel free to make one post about what you do after this, but don't get into anything you're not alright with ending immediately.))
Takeshi's group
The hellhound snarled in rage as the bullet grazed its side, the shaky shot failing to fully connect. It "bled" more of that strange substance from the wound, but didn't seem to slow down; allowing it to slide right into Krys's blade. The weapon sliced another neat wound in its side as the beast stopped just before impaling itself. It started to attack once more, before being caught by a sideways swipe of Takeshi's blade, the flat catching it firmly and sending the unnatural creature into Ozymandias's flames. The assault seemed to stun it for a moment, leaving it wide open as it thrashed at the fire.
Faust
The elevator opened up into a small lobby, that had a few hallways connected to it. They had small signs indicating which hall led where; there were two on the left, one which led to training areas and another which led to bedrooms. A central hall directly led to the dining and storage areas, and the paths on the right led to offices and maintenance areas. There was an office that was visible immediately upon looking down the hall, though no one was in it presently. A note on the desk next to a stack of blank paper and a computer facing the hall indicated that reports were to be written here.
