Whether it was the urge of settling this as soon as possible, impaisences to find out what this horrific cataclysm is or just a ilthought plan but the three heroes of Neogeoville decided on the next day after Alex came back is to investigate the rainbow tower.
A thirty story skyscraper that was part business building and part (expensive) apartments in the center of Neogeoville's town square.
"Okay, how do we get in?" Fuuma asked as he stared straight up at the building.
"Can't fly in, we'll get in trouble," Jude added while looking up too.
"Easy, we'll just say we're here for a visit," Gemini said. The others did a double take, "is there something wrong?"
"Besides being a top security building that would laugh at that excuse? They could call up to her and she could have us thrown out," Fuuma stated.
"Maybe we can sneak in, let's check in back," Gemini said as she walked around to the alleyway. The other two followed to make sure that the risk-taking puff doesn't do anything rash or stupid, behind the building was amazingly clean and well kept.
There was only one door, a emergency exit with a alarm system to prevent people from sneaking in. Jude took a careful eye to it, "this is a very system to break if on can get in, all I have to do is rewire everything."
Jude walked around thinking, "but I would need some special tools from home because this is a very-"
CLUNK!
Both Fuuma and Jude look at the door than all colour just drain out of them as their jaws dropped.
CLUNK!
The panel fell to the ground with a thunk, the wiring was exposed as a pipe wielding Gemini gave a "V for victory" sign to them.
"What are you doing!" Jude shouted. "I was about to say to make up for such short comings the metal panel is trigger sensitive! You're lucky you must have nailed something to keep some guards coming after us!"
Gemini looked over at the exposed wiring than back at the blond girl, "it worked anyway."
Jude and Fuuma knew arguing would be useless now, Gemini had set there paths. Now they just hope to come up with a damn good excuse for breaking in if they get caught.
Sparks shot out as there was a soft click sound, opening the door the trio enter the emergency stairwell. Which lead all the way to the top.
"So, now what?" Gemini asked.
"Do you know where Alex is?" Fuuma asked. "Well?"
"Huh, I only saw where the apartment is, the most I ever got is a letter 'J'," Jude slowly held up her hands waiting for a assault from the two now every angry heroes but none came as they were too busy walking up the stairs.
Jude caught up instantly, looking up she decided to float up. Fuuma shook his head and picked up Gemini and follow suit, they stopped at the very top.
"J," Jude said as she looked at the door that lead into the final floor.
"This is the floor?" Gemini asked no one in particular, "ether this guy she's staying with is very rich or something is wrong with this situation."
"I wonder what the 'J' stands for," Fuuma said. He knew it couldn't be something in alphabetical order, the floor beneath this was marked "A" and kept going down.
Bracing themselves Jude grip the door latch and open it slowly, behind the door were three figures waiting for them in the center of a wide open area.
"Aw, crap," Gemini said.
"You feel something?"
"Yeah, you don't think they would actually start going after the twelve angels?"
Tori looked at the sky as the wind rush all around them. "Yes, they're going against the low ranking ones."
"Well," Kaiohte said. "Let's go, they'll be torn to shreds!"
Tori sighed. "Let them learn their lesson Kaiohte-kun, if we interfered every time they stumble they would never be ready for what's ahead."
Damn it, Kaiohte thought. He knew his friend was right, but he wish he could do something.
Tori sense that Kaiohte was going to do something rash, he placed a hand on his shoulder and nodded slightly.
"Why can't we deal with this ourselves?"
"This isn't the Hakke, Black Mafia or Aenisis, they aren't out for profit or power but for mass destruction. We can't handle this alone," Tori let go of his friend.
"I hate when you're right, you know that?" Kaiohte said.
"Alex?" Gemini said.
"That kendo kid?" Fuuma said.
"And a new arrival!" Jude said as she spied the third person in the group, kind of hard to miss a grown up with two kids next to him. He was very tall and muscle bound with dark skin and wild blond hair, he almost looked like a wild man except for the expensive suit he was wearing.
"These are the vagabonds you were telling me about?" The man asked, the others nodded. "Well I can see how they would actually posse some kind of threat to you, but to me they're nothing."
"Watch guys," Fuuma said. He barely had the chance to guard against the punch, he was sent through the door and feel thirty stories down the stairs. He was knocked out when he hit bottom.
"Angst bunny!" Jude shouted before being grip by the throat than slam hard into the floor so hard that pieces went flying all over the place. Gemini was wide eyed but she manage to avoid a punch by leaping over him, the blind kendo master took a swipe that was aimed at her legs but she avoid that by landing hard onto the floor where Alex rush in to grab her wrist and flung her straight into the wall.
Gemini didn't know how the hell Alexandria got so much strength from over night? But she'll have to think about when she regains consciousness, which will be a while.
"Well, that wasn't a challange," Alex said.
"We better get going," the man said.
