Rukia Kurosaki

Hm. *pokes Par-kun* ... Yup, still alive. XD

Jamie squinted as the table disappeared, replaced by an open foyer. When the ordeal ended, she blinked and stretched, popping her shoulder and wincing, "Yup, still bruised..." She looked around to see if anyone was actually healed, wanting to know if the man known as 'the voice' really had such power.

Jamie watched Ari go, an eyebrow raised. She really couldn't understand his English... "So, any ideas on this voice thing? We hafta so somethin', yeah?" She pushed her plate to the middle of the table, adding, "Anybody who was this can 'ave it."

Jamie pushed down the barrel of the gun blankly. "Don't threaten me," she warned. With a frown she added, "You were being loud and profane. We're gonna get nowhere with this if we're fighting each other."

Jamie took a bite of toast, frowning groggily at Ari as she chewed. "Look 'ere, loudmouth. Ya can yell all ya want, but don't curse in front of them kids, yeah?" She sipped her orange juice and turned to Aleksander. "I agree... I really don't want to 'ave to choose one of you guys to let this guy try an' kill off. I'm not sure why 'e left you an' me out, other than maybe 'cause I just got 'ere... I 'aven't fulfilled my purpose in this game, yeah? But if we don't choose, more will die... I really don't know what to do~" She pushed her plate away without touching the scrambled eggs. Leaning on the table, she sighed. "What d'you think?"

Heya Rye-neechan~ *kiss*

Jamie rolled over on her bed restlessly, clenching her teeth against the pain that seemed to have come from nowhere. "A'right... why am I safe?" she wondered aloud. "An' Aleksander, too." With a sigh, she glanced again at the gift on the table, wishing she'd had a chance to give it to Miss Scarlet. "So... send in a name, yeah? One life to protect the whole... It's not right. How do you choose something like this?!"

Erru clenched her teeth, gripping her bleeding hand and cursing. "Damn... at least they don't know where Eisuke headed..." She paused, but decided she had no time to rest. "On with the show~" She set off three flares, each one a different signal, and waited to hear the sirens as she chased the car she was trying to halt. With her good, if bloodslicked, hand she fired a shot through the rear bumper of the car, marking from there down to puncture the rear right tire. "I told you to give up peaceably," she warned. "But ya just had to go and shoot." She walked in the opposite direction as the flat tire did its damage, headed East. "Got to get there first," she mumbled, sprinting out toward an abandoned factory building where the Deathtrap case took place.

"Sh**!" Erru spoke quickly into her transceiver. "James, there're at least three cars on your tail! Hidemi, exchange the cargo with 3-A and assume the boss' orders on the second plan... I'll see you guys soon." Hidemi yelled, "Wait a second-!" but Erru had already switched off the mic sensor. "See you soon," she sighed. Without warning Erru bolted left, climbing onto and over an enemy car and dropping a grenade onto the hood. "Good night." Three seconds later she was over the sde of another, firing two rounds into the tires and one into the driver of the van. The next car she stopped in front of, raising her revolver and leveling it at the driver. "I repeat, carry out Plan 2 through area 3-A," she said into the transceiver mic, firing three times in quick succession. Less than a minute later she was catching up to the car James and the other two had been in. She wrenched the door open, unfazed by the absence of her allies. She, and only she, knew where they were now, and Erru wasn't planning on spilling the beans anytime soon. She revved the engine, then swerved the car straight into the last of the pursuit team that had been after Eisuke. "Nobody messes with my comrades' families..." She left the bent, wrecked vehicle and tore off the door to Martin's car, dragging the man out by his arm. "Whoever wants him back alive had better give me your weapons and surrender peaceably by the count of three." She shoved the double-action handgun roughly against his temple, adding, "One... two..."

New pics:

Erru shoved Eisuke to James, drawing two pistols and firing at Lokar and his men. She made a signal, and Hidemi and Sera drew back, leaving Jodie, Camel, and Akai to take on a small group of enemies gathered at the North end. The girls left quickly, Hidemi taking the passenger's seat of the car in which Eisuke was stowed, and Sera following on her motorcycle. Erru covered them with her handguns as they retreated to take Eisuke to safety, shouting, "Practice's over!" With a brisk nod Camel swung into a squad car, skirting the flames of the explosion as he accelerated away from the scene with Jodie climbing in the back seat. Now only Akai and Erru were left facing the stragglers and survivors of the firefight, and the latter pulled the pin from a flash grenade, casting the projectile into the crowd of criminals. Tying her scarf over her eyes in less than one second, she listened for the surprised yells of the blinded men, dashing forward and firing off two shots toward Paul and Lokar. "This is over!"

"Sh**!" Erru tackled Eisuke to the ground protectively, blocking him from the scopes of their enemies. "Protect the hostage!" she shouted. Hidemi moved quickly to cover her comrade, nodding to Jodie and Camel, who'd surrounded the group from all sides with officials. They fired on the gangsters, hoping to distract and confuse a few, while Erru inched along on the ground, moving Eisuke slowly to the safety of the police barricade. "Don't worry, you're going to be fine," she whispered, nearly at the handoff point. She turned and fired a warning shot at Martin before crouching down and assuming her protective stance.

Erru elbowed Paul in the face, sweeping his legs out from under him. "I want Valther alive... Guess I'll have to wait..." She shot the guards beside Eisuke each in the legs and grabbed him, pulling him away and protecting him from any gunfire. "I believe this belongs to us."

poke, because I defy the game~

Kick... just 'cause I did.

DCW's Reliable Enemy. (figure that one out xD)

... kick.

Jamie blinked, then glanced at the weapon. "Would ya put that thing down, yeah?" She added, "I don't have any idea why the kid got killed, an' I don't know what you're gettin' at."

Kick back for the hell of it~

*kick* vengeance for kicking Ime-chan. --
