Mission Rankings
PARADIGM ranks missions on a D to S system to signify the urgency and scale of the mission. The descriptions of the rankings are as follows.
D Rank Missions: Missions of a standard cleanup/containment nature. The danger is localized, the threat is of a relatively small scale, and the mission can be handled by roughly any agent worth their salt, albeit some might need help.
Payment: 1,000 dollars. (100,000 ¥)
C Rank Missions: Missions which are of a more serious threat level, actually requiring a bit more than standard action, which can have farther reaching consequences, such as affecting an entire city or area. The dangers involved in this type of mission can vary by the number or the nature of the threat, and are to be taken seriously by all but the strongest of agents.
Payment: 5,000 dollars. (500,000 ¥)
B Rank Missions: More serious missions, the kind which can have far-reaching consequences. Often a precursor to something larger and PARADIGM is taking preventative measures, or something of a small-scale disaster. Powerful single targets or organized groups qualify as B Rank missions, and agents are advised to come prepared for the worst.
Payment: 10,000 dollars. (1,000,000 ¥)
A Rank Missions: Missions of this rank are of a deadly serious nature. An entire country or region is at risk, the danger is widespread or immediate, and things have to be handled decisively and with high risk. Incredibly powerful single opponents with dangerously organized groups or armies might be involved, or actual natural disasters on a country-wide scale. All agents are ordered to proceed with caution, and to end this ASAP.
Payment: 25,000 dollars. (2,500,000 ¥)
S Rank Missions: Missions for the strongest and most qualified of agents. S Rank missions are of a planetary scale, and the threats are numerous, widespread and incredibly dangerous both on a personal and organizational scale. Several high-ranking agents are required for these kinds of missions, and the urgency is directly proportionate to how widespread the danger is. These might be time and resource consuming missions, and all agents are ordered to be ready to be involved for an extended amount of time.
Payment: 50,000 dollars. (5,000,000 ¥)
SS and SSS Rank Missions: Missions of an S rank which are on a scale yet unseen. Possibly galactic or universal scale. Expect the apocalypse if a mission of this rank is ever attempted, and all agents are to participate. Note: Any mission which gains the SS rank means it was an S Rank that was not accomplished, so the dangers are doubled or tripled, at least, and all agents are to take up arms and participate.
Payment: 100,000 to 500,000 dollars. (10,000,000 to 50,000,000 ¥)

- For Genre, it's pretty much what you feel the mission is. People have used Intel / Mytery / Political / Magical / Drama / Martial Arts / Adventure / Spiritual / Espionage / Sci-Fi / Fantasy / Action / Horror / Comedy / Survival / Mature / Supernatural so far.
- The : indents the paragraph. Also, you do not need to use the BR or P codes for breaks and paragraphs. Just spacing with enter and using : at the beginning is enough.
- Toggledisplay is finicky, so it has to be on its own line. If it's on a line with something else, it may cause issues. Toggledisplay is what hides the bulk of your synopsis to keep the page a bit more manageable.

- Rank: Rank A

- Location: Cartographer Vessel Magellan
- Client: Melody Kalad
- Status: Open
[show details]
- Chapter One: 'Left My Heart in Medbay.' After meeting up with Melody Kalad, a fellow agent of PARADIGM, They where giving a brief update on the mission. "I will try and keep this short as the situation has changed some. Until 1 hour ago, we had lost all contact with the Cartographer Vessel Magellan. The cause of the system black out seems to be some mass scale infestation aboard the ship. This went from a investigation mission to a search and rescue. Not entirely sure what is on board with the crew but what ever it is it sounds feral.... Not sure HOW they got on the ship but that is my job to figure out. You guys worry about the crew." Once they had arrived Sora Strife and Venus Highwind and a bit of trouble adjusting to the Zero G in the hanger. Melody had tried to get the generators for the room back on but seemed to have been locked out of the system. Thankfully Prae Shinra was able to guide them over to the CAT power suits, which had magnetic boots on them allowing for easier navigation. They managed to make there way to the med bay with no real encounters, they did spot several strange creatures running about, but never got a good look at them.
Med bay was locked tight and it was clear one of the monsters had been trying to breach the door, thankfully Venus still had Engineer Carter's PAN Card on her, allowing them easy access into the lobby of the med bay!. The lobby showed clear signs of struggle, and the vent covers have been ripped off. Venus suggested that there was a high possibility that they managed to infiltrate into the med bay using these ducts and should use caution around them. The group decided to head to the patient quarters to look for survivors, and after a few tries They found some 5 ! .. 3 Patients a doctor and a wounded soldier, But had a few encounters with the monsters on board the ship before that...they managed to get the crew back onto the cargo ship safely! and decided to take a rest for the day.
- Chapter Two: 'Human Tested, Monster approved' Returning with reinforcements this time, our agents spoke with Hudson, the soldier they saved on there previous journey into the ship. 'We set down on some rock of a planet on company orders and took some Core samples. ..next thing we knew was that the people down in R&D were talking about finding DNA in one of the core samples and they decided to see if they could recreate ..what ever the hell they found .. and it...well you can see what it did..' Hudson explained. Our agents returned to the Medbay for a little investigation and room clearing. Once back in the lobby however, one of the O2 pipe lines had burst open, forcing the team to split there focus, one team went to check on Administration, while the other, with a little help from Melody, went to find a Maintenance room. After cutting the door down to the maintenance room, they found an rather injured engineer, Robert Asimov, Slowly bleeding out from various wounds.. Agent Highwind and Shinra managed to keep the man calm while Agent Strife worked on healing the man.
Agent Kia Kiske went about searching the Administration center of the medbay, looking for clues as to what happened and possibly survivors. What she found was some disturbing notes that the doctors here have been injecting patients with some strange DNA they had found in one of the core samples there took. Kia then, shortly after found a rather hostile monster. Thankfully the other Agents rushed back to assist! After the battle, they had begun searching the room. What they would find is that they the doctors where administering this 'DNA' as a new form of pain killer. What was actually going on is they where using there patients as test subjects. After a bit more searching about Melody informed the agents that The doctor had disappeared and that some some one was now in the barracks. Our Agents quickly headed off that way to rescue the person!
Agent Shinra decided to stay behind in medbay and do a little 'digging', looking up various bits of information about the crew, Serum 1227, and the missing doctor. She found out that the 'DNA' Is actually a micro organism that re-purposes the hosts body into what ever they need them to be, also infecting there brain tissue and taking control of the host. After spending some time studying the notes on the creature, Agent Shrina believes she may have a way to create a vaccine to protect others from infection, However there is a bit of a problem, as the supplies she needed are in ER ... where supposedly a large one of these monsters is trapped at.
After a bit of work and on the door to the mess hall they managed to gain access to the room where the agents found not only another survivor but 4 hostiles which they quickly put down. After all this they decided to pull out for the day to rest. Melody assured them that she will hold down the fort till they return.

She told them the location of Mr. Sinister's current lab, a remnant of something Doctor Curt Connors had done. The group took the Epoch to the area, and noticed that two guards were in place. Agent Aku mentioned a third presence, and agent Utada put them to sleep. Unfortunately, the third presence was a telepath, who possessed one of the guards and began fighting them, ignoring most shots to her host body, until agent Ashley cancelled our her psychic presence, allowing the agents forward.
- Once inside, the agents were besieged by a combo of traps, meant to contain and wound an exceptionally agile intruder, and were then immediately attacked by the Marauders, working to destabilize and take them agents as they were recuperating.

Agent Aku managed to take down their muscle and set him on fire as agent Jackal took out their long-range attacker, but then a bigger problem arose, which was hard to take down and required all agents, before it was decapitated by agent Motonari and turned into goo.
- Agent O'Toole was scrambled by one of the mutants, before being healed by agent Ashley, which led said mutant to flee before being shot down by agent Shinra in a non-lethal manner, then the group moved on ahead. In the next room, the main lab, they began seeking out the sample, and agent Aku revealed that Sinister was attempting to masquerade as someone else in another room. Dropping the ruse, Sinister made a deal with them. The DNA of two of them for the sample. Agents Kamen and Aku accepted the deal while Sinister openly probed their minds for intel. After the group left, Kamen revealed he had stolen back the blood samples and they should hurry, but the agents were not pursued by the Marauders or Sinister.
- Returning to the Hellfire Club, the agents were awarded passes to the club and Ava's gratitude, who quickly reinstalled the missing DNA in her body. As the agents were leaving, the Black King approached agents Kamen and Leben for his own reasons, then let them go with the rest, back to the Epoch.

Agents proceeded to head to the abomination lab where Fakir was able to spot several of the guards, and cause a distraction to get the group in. Once they were pass the gate, they were attacked by abomination dogs known as a "Raptor Squad". Agents managed to defend themselves successfully, and after a moment of planning they had decided to attempt to take command of a tank the based had in it's possession. Things did not go as planned, with Agent Fakir being unable to bypass the Tank's security, he elected to disable it instead to prevent the enemy from using it against the group. During the confrontation outside the tank, Nikolai and Isabelle confronted deadly "Napalm Belchers" and took heavy damage, but not before losing the explosives that they had bartered from the Jammers. With no choice, and the BuroMill Grunts coming in on them, they elected to have Fakir make his way inside the base, while the two of them took on the security personnel.

[show details]
- Agents Luca Sparda and Dominic Lalance were recalled to their original organizations to assist the B.S.A.A. and Hellsing respectively. The other agents were lent a jeep to travel to one of the parks in Berlin, having to fight their way through the undead-filled streets of the ancient city. With quick thinking from the agents and recon by agent Shinra, the group was able to make it to the park, where BSAA agent Jake Muller was holding off against the hordes of zombies. When they approached him, they were attacked by the Death Bio-Weapon. After a grueling battle, the agents made their way past this monster, and agent Muller told them that more information was held by Lisa Rogan and Jill Valentine.
- Taking the streets instead of the subway, agents fought their way through the hordes of zombies, making their way to the church where they were hiding out. Breaking their way in, the agents managed to locate the pinned down ladies, Rogan and Valentine, attempting to fight off the Kraken, which fled after PARADIGM's arrival, leaving a large hole through the wall. Rogan revealed that there had been new individuals at the university which had been using research that Goldman had done back in the late 90s, and had been shipping the results to this church under the sewers. At that time, the group was attacked by these two abominations. Agents Isabelle and Shinra took to the sky to take out the smaller one as the others did what they could against the near invincible armour, but they managed to kill the smaller demon and proceed, through the sewers.
- The sewers, as expected, were filled with monsters and zombies, but making their way to the university was simple. Once there, they encountered BSAA agent Piers Nivans, attempting to hold off dozens of zombies from the Bell Tower, and running out of ammo. Quick thinking by agents Dreyar and Jackal bottlenecked the zombies outside, giving the sniper a chance to reload and finish off the rest. He revealed to them that the university was overtaken by a group of highly trained special ops and that a group of BSAA soldiers had gone in already, but that they should've been out by now if they were still alive. He told them all of this was started by a man named ZED, and he had unleashed this plague onto Berlin, animating all corpses. He then called for helicopter pickup and told them to hurry if they wanted to stop the inevitable purge that G had ordered.
- Making their way past expertly placed wire and claymore traps, the agents saw the remains of the BSAA team, clearly killed by arrows and explosives, a military action. When they got into the laboratory wing, as indicated by Nivans, they found the man, ZED, arguing with Anton Zmeyavich. Immediately, Hank Krauser shot a flashbang arrow to cover their escape, with Kraken leading the way, with Zmeyavich claiming, apparently truthfully, that they were going to release the antigen. However, ZED called himself a UDS (Undead Soldier) of the strongest mold, and transformed into The Ultimate UDS for a duel with the agents. Displaying psychokinesis, pyrokinesis and flight, Zed proved to be a fantastic opponent, until the combined firepower and judicious use of nearby chemicals caused too much damage for him to regenerate from. Immediately after the antigen's release, agent Jackal contacted Agent G to tell him to halt the purge, saving Berlin from the destruction the combined group had planned for it, which was to let the Vampire Alucard unseal his full ability.

After a little more time, they were beset by six Horrors. At the end of the brief exchange, the soul of Setsuna Mikagami appeared. It was revealed that Agent Tao Mei could take the soul into her body and allow her to participate safely.
- Further into the forest, they encountered false versions of the previous incarnations of the Gold and Silver Fang Makai Knights, Saejima Kouga and Suzumura Rei. When the False Rei was killed, False Kouga went berserk, his armor becoming a huge beast, which agents then defeated. They later found a clearing with a large metal box, upon which rested the Barankas Fruit. This box turned out to be the Grou Dragon, a Makai construct designed to exterminate horrors in the forest.

They quickly encountered eldritch horrors, Strange creatures that where giant oozing orbs of of flesh, teeth, bones and eyes. It was quickly defeated through the combined efforts of the agents... but more seemed to rip their way out of the floor they stood upon. The beasts seemed to be apart of the vary foundation of this world. A strange guardian perhaps?.

Through the wit and efforts of Sora Strife and David, the monster was quickly sealed and slain.
- With the Magus defeated, they quickly moved on to The Forgotten One. Words were exchanged ..allowing the group to quickly and easily ready themselves for the opening strike, and strike they did. The first blows from Jean and David brought the monster to it's knees, and then the follow up strike from Belle Hibiki managed to crack the monsters hide, opening a weak point to exploit on the monster. After a quick bout with the monster. It was downed and was in the process of being sealed away once and for all. The next turn of events however would delay that. Cassaandra Aulin unable to control the massive surge of power from The Forgotten One, messed up on the spell, not only returning the monsters power, but amplifying it. At first The monster had become so powerful that he could deflect all attacks with little effort with it's newly aquired Arcane Shield spell. But both Jean and Sora realized its power is coming from Magic, Cassandra's magic, and promptly proceeded to break the spell barrier with a barrage of spell canceling abilities. With his defenses lowered, the agents made quick work of the demon, even 'killing' him in the process. This allowed Cassandra to now only seal him, but use less Tomes of Sealing then intended.

- Synopsis: Agents were contacted to retake the supposed technology theft that occurred the last time they were on this world (Earth-1).
[show details]
- Making their way into the Metro General Hospital past a single guard, agents were greeted by a mostly empty area, and easy access to the laboratory section of the hospital, just behind the main hallway. Once entering the research area, they met a very small man, called Doctor Psycho, the man Batman told them about. Dr. Psycho used illusions and a set of psychic assaults to destabilize the group, in particular agents Lucy and Leben. Once Dr. Psycho cleared the area, the agents moved on ahead, and were guided to the elevators by Oracle.
- Encountering some of the Exobyte Heroes, deadpoo68, He-Man Clone and NetureGirl, the agents had to fight them to snap them out of Dr. Psycho's control. Managing to disable and defeat them with only minor setbacks, the Exobyte Heroes had to continue their mission of stopping a shipment to LexCorp, leaving agents alone. Pursuing Dr. Psycho further, they encountered a version of him that was 20 feet tall and made of stone, though according to agent Uchiha, it was an illusion. He made it clear his goal was to collect the 'dolls' here, and attempted to make the male agents leave, which only agent Ishigami was subjected to, before being broken out of it. The agents then fought Dr. Psycho, and despite some lasting psychic damage, they managed to defeat his illusion. Looking through his files, it seems there was never a technology theft, which indicates a trap from the Secret Society to PARADIGM's agents.

[show details]
- Going to meet with the informant, the agents encountered Nakago, and the other Celestial warrior of Seiryu, Suboshi. He explained that they had made the wish for Odio's Perfect World on a ruined world like this one, but unfortunately, the beast god had consumed its Maiden, and now was free to do as it wished on this world. After telling them of three Trials the Genbu Maiden, Shinako, could go through to purify herself and be worthy of the god. A test of Strength, Mentality, and Spirituality. Before leaving, agent Armstrong attempted to attack Nakago, to no avail, as Suboshi explained attempting to attack them in a Seiryu Temple was useless.
- The agents made their way to a single location, during which time agent Nara's scroll glowed, and during which rogue agent Hibiki returned to forced active duty. The first test had begun, and the agents had to face down a large green behemoth. This monster took all they could dish out and then some, and began to break through any attempts to restrain it, getting angrier and stronger with every passing second in the fight. Agent Nara's shadow immobilization technique and agent Uchiha's sleeping powder, coupled with agent Hibiki literally stealing the breath from the beast's lungs was able to subdue it, opening the way to the next challenge.
- Insert KIRA challenges here.
- After that harrowing challenge, another person appeared, along with his demonic allies, Jack Frost, the Devil and Fuujin, to battle the unprepared agents. Instantly disabling agent Sparda, this man then quietly proceeded to unleash an assault on all agents, with his summoned devils, and his Onmyoujutsu. This man responded to physical attacks with the sword and to firearms with guns, dispelling agents' spells and enhancements. Most agents focused on the Devil, leaving agent Hibiki to take on Fuujin and agent Shinra to fight against Jack Frost, who was eventually subdued by agent DeMarque. After being pinned, the mysterious man used a curse, bringing forth every negative emotion and guilt in all agents. Agent Nara broke free, and proceeded to free others. Which is when the man took away his followers, tipped his hat, and left.
- Genbu stuff happened here but Frank was high.

- Rank: Rank D
- Genre: Action/Investigation
- Location: Metropolitan City
- Client: Commissioner Reed
- Status: Closed
- Participants:
- Synopsis: PARADIGM has been called back to Metropolitan City to investigate a series of thefts around high end stores. The packages are there one minute, and then gone the next.
[show details]
- Our intrepid agents went looking near the stores to see what they could find. Luckily(?), as they were investigating, a woman had her items pilfered, so they went there to investigate the specific area. Using her special abilities, Hanako was able to determine the thief seemed to be coming from the rooftops.
- While the thief struck again, Hanako was able to make it to the rooftops and locate the pilfered goods. And ran into the thief. As Ian and Shinako came to back her up, the thief ran away, using teleportation abiliies. However, the thief then tired quickly, and was able to be caught by Shinako's Kage Mane, while Ian handcuffed her. As the thief, named Sara, was being interrogated by the trio, she began flickering in and out.
- Takeo and Lucy arrived, to try and help stabilize her. As they were trying to figure out what was going on by trying to jog her memory, they were able to determine that she, and others, were picked for experimentation solely because they were people who wouldn't be missed. She was caged and prompted to test her abilities, while being gassed whenever she needed to be transported... and at one point woke up in a subway tunnel.
- However, after ruling out nanomachines and something psychic as being the cause of Sara's abilities, and their fritz, Lucy's backup stabilization generator failed, and Sara eventually flickered out of existence.
Operation #123: Balance
- Description: The village home of the Yukioka clan is under attack by elemental forces! PARADIGM has been requested to lend aid.
- Rank: B
- Genre: Martial Arts/Action
- Location: Rural China, Ranma World.
- Client: Yukioka Clan Matriarch
- Status: Closed
- Synopsis: It went alright. Then it went better. Then it went horribly wrong.
[show details]
- After arriving at the Yukioka training grounds, PARADIGM agents were notified of the nature of the attack: elemental forces that were bombarding the grounds, keeping it under siege. With the Yukioka warriors worn down, the agents engaged a trio of corrupted creatures: a wolf of incredible speed and the ability to summon darkness, tree branches growing throughout and out its body; an owl, shielded an an armor of thorns with the ability to control the wind, and a huge humanoid tree-creature of immense physical power. The agents were able to dispatch the enemies swiftly, though with minor injuries, most suffered from the 'death traps' that all seemed to possess. These wounds immediately began to show signs of similar corruption in the affected agents.
- After the combat concluded, the matriarch explained that the origin of the attack was a vengeful nature spirit, one defeated long ago by the founder of the Yukioka clan. The spirit was one that was once responsible for maintaining harmony and balance in the land, and had originally been an ally in man's infancy, until man's unchecked expansion threatened to destabilize the natural world. Seeing this eventual outcome, the spirit decided that the only way to avoid it would be to destroy mankind. The Yukioka was created to contain the creature should it ever rise again, but that fact was known to only a few in the modern age.
- The matriarch, Cao Dere, was capable of forcing the spirit to assume physical form, and when the agents were ready to confront it, brought them to a clearing, bringing the spirit into the material world. After an intense battle, former agent Hibiki was able to use some of the creature's magic against it, stopping its regenerative capabilities long enough for the rest of the agents to attack the creature's weak point, subduing it. The spirit's defeat enabled Cao Dere to contain it once more, forcing it into the form of an immense tree that stretched taller than the mountains around it. The agents were battered by the sudden growth, though no serious injuries came as a result of it.
- In the aftermath, Orochiko took advantage of the exhaustion of the PARADIGM agents to launch an ambush, killing Kimiko Yukioka, apparently in revenge for causing Orochiko to lose a body in the battle that resulted in former agent Hibiki's capture. After accomplishing this, Orochiko retreated.
Operation #124: Danse Macabre
- Description: Agents are asked to come to a public soiree of an art mogul to find information on Felicity. The party is being hosted by a reclusive 'fan' of the arts, Christian L'Amoureux.

The party is very reminiscent of European High Society so agents are asked to blend in and try to get as much information as possible on either the location of Felicity or where one might find another piece of her work.

Operation #126: I want to be you.
- Description: A strange supernatural wave has been triggering at an abandoned school. There have been peculiar sightings of a ghost girl and a demon-dog making the locals uneasy. Investigate and possibly purge the source.
- Rank: C
- Genre: Horror/Fantasy/Action
- Location: Seito Sannomiya Private School
- Client: Mikage Takeshi and Sumeragi Hokuto
- Status: Complete
- Synopsis: Agents arrived to a very dreary-looking scene; an abandoned school. The clients, Takeshi Mikage and Hokuto Sumeragi, were waiting there to brief everyone about sightings of a demon dog and a ghost girl on their property.
[show details]
- Takeshi asked for the participating agents to purge the presence of the ghost and then provided a picture of the demon dog. Belle, Izumi, and Prae Shinra recognized the demon dog from it's involvement in Mission #50 as well as being around when Aki Tendou tried to attack Aimi Utada back at Atlas Records. Hokuto asked for the agents to hurry while she prepared a warding spell around the perimeter of the school to keep any other negative spirits out while they did their work.
- The agents then continued inside of the school and strangely enough, Haruka could not feel the presence of any spirits. As they continued down the hall of the empty school, agents could hear whispers coming from the top air vents. Prae aimed a Kaleido Liner shot in preparation, thinking that there could be something in the vent ready to attack them. Hayate then suggested not to use that attack, explaining that those noises might as well just be a cat. Izumi promptly freaked out at the word and made a lot of noise, jumping on Shinako and causing her to scream as well. The whispers then stopped.
- After calming down, Sachiko noticed by using her batsuit infrared that there were heat signatures coming from the floors above them. The group then headed to the stairwell and Xander and Belle noticed a photograph of Shinako on the ground. The agents then got closer and closer, some of their seishi symbols began to activate (making Xander turn into a girl). After a momentary shock, the group eventually got to the room where the heat signatures were reading and saw the walls covered with photographs of Shinako and the other Genbu seishi. The window was open and a girl was standing in front of it holding another bound girl at knifepoint. There were also seals made in a pentagram around the girl and her hostage to prevent any sort of harm towards them. The girl with the knife demanded that Shinako hand over her scroll and relinquish her role as the Genbu no Miko over so that the girl would be able to be someone special. After a few words, Kaleido Ruby fired a Kaleido Liner shot at the girl with the knife as she was aiming to get her off guard but Belle leaped into the way and took the shot. The girl seemed to be finally caught off guard with the stunt but did not drop her knife. Hayate then used his cloning jutsu to try to sneak out of the room and head to the floor beneath the girl. Right when Hayate exploded the floor - Sachiko used her sharingan to make the Girl with the knife believe she was being swarmed by spiders. Both girls then fell.. Belle catching the Girl with the knife and Haruka catching the hostage with Prae. As Xander fell, his powers activated and made him float down with the powers of wind. Motonari used his chains to help get Izumi and any others that had fallen to the next floor out.
- Shinako then used Kage Mane in order to keep the attacking Girl immobile while Sachiko used her Sharingan to continue to interrogate her about the demon dog. The girl explained that she did not know where the demon dog had gone to and that the demon dog was the one who had told her about how she could become the new Genbu no Miko. The agents then left the school and took the girls back outside to meet with Takeshi and Hokuto once more. Hokuto had finally finished setting up the warding seals and now took notice of agent Haruka a little more closely. Takeshi also became rather ... concerned... over the well-being of agent Belle which prompted some uncomfortable/awkward dialogue. The agents then left the scene and returned back to the Inn.
Operation #127: Sweet Child of Mine
- Description: In the past two months children have been vanishing from the Shinagawa district with the only clue being a cryptic message left on an online 'Craigs List'-like site. A lot of hype has been going through the internet making this case go viral and has been making investigation for authorities almost impossible. Agents are asked to meet with a contact who believes that the one responsible is a demon.
- Rank: C
- Genre: Horror
- Location: Cyberia Bar
- Client: Lain Iwakura
- Status: Closed
- Synopsis: Agents arrived to the Cyberia bar and went inside to find their contact, Lain.
[show details]
- Lain, a young girl with an off-putting expression, started briefing the agents about the situation with the missing children. It turns out that a woman named Tsugawa Moriko, being referred to as a horror-virus, had been targeting children because of her own inability to have kids. The only clue that she left was a cryptic message left on the Wired (the internet in Lain's world) that read:
- "Sweet little children, even though you cry it'll be okay. Do not be sad that you've shed your mortal husk.. now you will be immortal and in my arms. Together we will make a future so bright and beautiful - a future where your innocence will never die." Along with the message were pictures of the five missing children.
- Lain explained that while no one else knew what was going on, she could tell that this horror-virus was taking these children and using them to make her own child. Each child represented a piece of the finished product: Arms, Legs, Torso, Hands, Feet. ...and the final piece being the head. When agent Tatsuya asked on how to find the location of this horror, Lain responded that a quicker way would be to use agent Maggie. Lain then offered a drink to Maggie and when she imbibed on it, she was flooded with visions of how Tsugawa Moriko started a path of regret in her life and became possessed by a horror. In her vision she also recognized a name of a hospital and the nearby Park where the horror had sprung onto Moriko.
- The agents then left the club and searched around for a map to find the Hospital's location. Agent Riki asked a police officer some directions and the group quickly moved on for the Hospital. When they reached the vicinity, all of them could feel the presence of a Yin Gate and the presence of the horror inside of the hospital. Deciding that the Yin Gate could be sealed later, the agents rushed into the hospital after hearing the crying sounds of children.
- Once inside of the hospital they saw Moriko standing over the body of an unconscious child. Her hand had been morphed into a gnarled, organic-looking chainsaw while her opposite hand had faces of little children on each finger. The faces seemed to be talking and cooing to the woman as she was about to make the final strike and take the missing 'piece' to finish her created child body. The agents quickly distracted Moriko and engaged the agents in a fight. Tatsuya and Tonic faced off against Moriko while Riki and Maggie tried to untie the child and move him to safety. After a few devastating blows, Moriko finally melded into a full Horror form which had saws and other sharp objects protruding from its armor. Tatsuya changed into his armor and tried to intercept the Horror - who had now switched attentions back to Riki and Maggie because they were trying to take her baby away. The Horror grabbed onto Tatsuya and before trying to fatally attack him, Riki transformed into his armor and with a combined attack from him and Tonic the Horror was knocked away and shred into pieces. In a last attempt, the Horror tried to spray its blood onto Maggie and the child, however with her Holy Word and True Faith the blood sprayed off of an invisible barrier.
- The agents then left the hospital with the child and found that the Yin gate outside had been sealed. Tonic sensed another figure outside and everyone came face to face again with agent Setsuna Mikagami. Setsuna was now dressed in Makai Priest robes and had completed a great deal of her training - now feeling it was time to rejoin the agents. The group then returned back to the Epoch and went home.
