A videotape suddenly materialized in the infirmary, landing loudly on the floor.

Andy raised an eyebrow but went and put it in the tv.

The picture was wavy for a moment, finally stabilizing into a shot of two men beaten seriously. They were bound to a wall, men slamming fists into them.

Andy breathed in sharply as she realized who the two men were.

A tall blond appeared. "Kadoya, a trade. You for them. I'll be in contact, unless you don't care if we kill these two."

Andy stared at the man in confusion, knowing she had killed him. She removed the tape and made her way to Tsukasa's office. She slowly knocked on the door.

Daiki opened it, his smile fading as he saw her. "Uh oh. What's wrong?" He stood aside to let her in.

"Kei and Hiroki have been taken... This appeared in the infirmary. I just don't understand how he's alive..."

Tsukasa took the tape, loading it into his tv. His jaw clenched as he watched and when it was over, he growled. "Sonofabitch. He probably had more than one double." He turned off the tv and reached for his gun. "This time, I'm going to kill him."

"I can take you to him," Andy said quietly. "Unless you really want to wait for him to contact you."

"No. You're going to take me and then get those two to safety. I'll come back afterwards." Tsukasa gave Daiki a glare as he looked about to argue. "I'm going to end this because he'll come after Kiba next."

Andy nodded, checking her pistol then saying, "Ready when you are."

Tsukasa gave Daiki a reassuring kiss. "I'll be back I swear." He went to Andy's side and nodded.

Andy put a hand on his shoulder and focused on Andersson before saying the teleportation spell.

They appeared in the warehouse, scant inches from where Kei and Hiroki were hanging.

"Get them out of here." Tsukasa ordered as he moved away, his eyes scanning. He disappeared into another room.

Andy teleported Kei and Hiroki to the infirmary, starting to check them over and say healing spells. She impatiently waited for any sign from Tsukasa.

"Tell Daiki I'm sorry.. I got him but he got me too." Tsukasa's voice was faint.

Andy cursed before focusing on Tsukasa and teleporting there. She quickly looked around to scan the area.

Andersson was pinned to the wall, a sword in his throat. At the terrorist's feet was a locked open pistol.

Tsukasa lay on his back nearby, six bullets in him. His eyes were unfocused, blood streaming from his lips as his chest ever so slowly rose and fell.

Andy took him to the infirmary and started quickly saying spells and removing bullets. She worked on stitching him up before getting a transfusion set up.

Daiki took a tentative step into the infirmary. His face was stony, as if he was preparing himself for the worst. "Is he-?" He clenched his jaw tightly, the words trailing off.

"He's alive," Andy informed as she continued to work. She was now cleaning the rest of the blood off of him.

"Is the bastard dead?"

"Yeah, unless he has another trick up his sleeve."

The vampire collapsed into a chair, his body untensing as he watched her.

She finished up, "He should be alright after some rest."

"Darlin? You might want to reschedule the plans we had.." Tet's voice was quiet but hurried.

"What's happening?"

"The asshole we were taking out flipped the tables on us. We're prisoners." He suddenly screamed, a buzzing sound loud in the link.

Andy cursed and looked at Daiki, "Seems like Tet and the others are prisoners.. I'm going to get a team to go rescue them."

"Let me." He raised the radio he held. "Anyone wanting a fight, meet in the infirmary for rescue duty."

Five minutes later, half the team was awaiting instructions. Daiki looked at her. "How many do you need. I'm coming by the way."

"What even was their mission?" Andy wondered, trying to figure out what to expect.

"Small fry gangster wanting to be big. He's psychic and can harness electricity. Nasty bastard. We were ordered to keep him from taking over the city."

Andy nodded and looked at the group, "We go in, porters focus on getting our teammates to safety, the rest take on any one who gets in our way." She looked at Daiki, "You and I can take out the gangster."

"Glad for the vote of confidence." Daiki saluted her. "Let's do this."

Andy focused on Tet and teleported her and Daiki.

The vampire crinkled his nose at the smell of burnt flesh. "I'm really not going to feel bad at eating this guy." He began heading toward the sound of weak screams as the others appeared next to her.

Andy followed along, praying her friends were all still alive.

They emerged into a large room, several of the men hanging from hooks in the ceiling. All of them had burns from an electric whip the man was wielding. Tet was weakly trying to avoid being slashed, his uniform hanging in tatters. His wrists were bleeding from his attempts to get free.

Hitoshi's head hung, his body limp. Ryusei gave a cry and wrapped his arms around the man, disappearing quickly.

Ryon grabbed Jade and Leo, then did the same.

The man stopped, noticing the movement. He roared in anger as he saw the empty hooks, then turned to face Andy. "You'll pay for taking them!"

Andy growled, "I could say the same thing to you."

Daiki's fangs extended as he launched himself at the man. "Get Tet out of here!"

Andy quickly moved to Tet, teleporting him out before going back to help Daiki.

The vampire panted, his left arm sliced to the bone. It hung limp, blood pooling on the ground where Daiki crouched. He had a slash on his chest as well and was unsteady on his feet.

The gangster had a set of fang marks on one arm but it didn't seem to faze him. He raised the whip and focused his stare at the same time. Then he swung.

The whip sliced into Daiki between his neck and shoulder, the vampire crying out.

The gangster laughed, making the whip sizzle with electricity.

Daiki convulsed, then toppled over as the gangster turned his gaze to Andy.

Andy found herself unable to move. She looked at him in confusion.

He grinned evilly, tapping his eye before raising the whip and arcing it toward her.

She tried not to scream as it sliced into her chest. She focused a moment before turning into a hawk and flying at him, attacking his face and eyes with her talons.

He screamed, slashing the whip wildly as he tried to protect himself.

Andy felt it hit her a couple times but she ignored it and continued. She shifted once more, this time into a snake, and wrapped herself up around his throat.

He tried to pull her off, his face turning red, then blue. Finally he crumpled to the ground dead.

Andy teleported Daiki back to the infirmary, getting him into a bed. She ignored her own wounds as she worked on healing him up using spells and stitches. When she was done, she swayed, falling back into the chair.

Akasa crouched beside her, his lips moving rapidly. He finished the spell, looking at her. "You better now?"

"Thanks," she nodded, the pain had decreased as the wounds started to close.

He nodded, slowly rising. He didn't move, his eyes closed as he leaned against the wall dejectedly.

"What's wrong?"

"I feel useless. Hitoshi is dead, but I think he was before he got here. Tet.. he bled out in my hands. Jade and Leo are hanging on barely. I've done all I can."

"You're not useless. You keep me alive, don't you?" She gave him a small smile before pushing herself up. She still felt kind of weak but she moved to Tet and set up a transfusion. She made sure Tet and Hitoshi were fully healed before focusing, gold light appearing around them.

They inhaled sharply, their vitals calming after a minute.

Andy sat back down, watching Tet for a minute before closing her eyes. She rested there for a little while before finally going to change into a clean uniform. She came back and checked everyone over again.
