HACKED

[dragonesper]

"My, so that was what the strange guy in suit was?" While the words were discreetly typed the sarcasm was easy to read between lines. "I know already. So? What's the reason for contacting me? I'm not the leader of this group." Ze could almost not be any more respectless without actually trying, especially with the next words: "Is it a job? A status update? I never thought of you as sunshine and puppies-kinda social that just wanna hang out for no reason." Eating the breakfast together with the others the food was soon eaten up, with several pauses between eating spent on teasing Mi, joking with Tren or chatting with Silver.
Ignoring the suited man that greeted them as they left Xan was plenty tempted to give a slightly rude greeting back, ze didn't. Outside Xan nodded at Silver's words: "Yeah, it was that creep of an old geezer that greeted us when we left."

 

[Avalon]

The suited man spoke to them as they walked by and Tren almost cringed. He'd totally figured it out. "Crap," Tren thought, holding her breath until they were safely outside the cafe. "I think we've been found out," Tren murmured, frowning. "If any of us had been managing to fly under the radar, that's out the window now. That guy in there got a great look at all of us just now." Tren's frown stayed in place as the group walked down the street and presumably toward the juice shop. They may as well continue with their plans; that man back there didn't seem too interested in their activities but that didn't mean that nothing bad would happen if they started acting more suspicious. Surely the suited man would be keeping an eye on them now. "Let's hurry and get out of here. The sooner we can split up and go our separate ways the better. That one man can't track all of us at once."

Turning off the camera to the cafe while the group left was a mistake, this inevitably left the group weakened to the knowledge of what the TL detective was doing after they left, however Kenshin didn't think the agent was at all any threat to them; after all he was outnumbered. ''I think he's getting close to our high score'' Said calmly over the phone conversation that was still proceeding whilst the group leaves to the juice store. It was code of course, It meant that the suited guy had their identities. Thats how the STARLiGHT worked, codes and riddles were a must over the phone in case of digital tap. This was irrelevant at the time, the data to which the previous tracker attack on their phones were already in effect. Kenshin slide his finger across the hologram screen in front of him to check the groups phone in case of attacks and he found a high level permanent tracker installed on each of there phones. It didn't take long to figure out that there was traffic build up on the sides, checking the street cameras he notices a large group of TL detective police cars heading towards the fellow groups way. Tensing his muscles and raising his voice so the rest could hear, it was too late for code and it was ready to run. ''You got a group of TL cars heading your way, i'll modify the traffic security systems to by you enough time to run!'' Red and blue lights flashed violently across the cold streets of Tokyo whilst every civilians cars were forcefully moved to the side of the road.

Locking eyes with the group till they were unable to be sighted from the cafe window, Hashiro grabbed his phone and tabbed a button that said ''Activation Pursuit'' at the bottom of the list of data that was sent causing every TL member in the area to receive the digital alert to the group position. Scooting and getting up from the cafe booth he straightens his tie and adjusts his glasses whilst thanking the waitress for the coffee. Leaving the cafe and stopping in front of it Hashiro reached into his coat pocket to pull out a electronic cigarette that emitted smoke upon connection to the lips. Enjoying the smoke whilst closing his eyes to get the full pleasure of peace and tranquility the TL detective cars would speed by causing a gust of wind to brush against Hashiro to which his tie and jacket flowed with the air. Blowing the remaining smoke from his mouth it was mumbled softly that he loved his job, Hashiro was a Detective that worked hard at his job and was never off duty. ​

Xan cursed so heavily out of the blue that it was an unnerving contrast to the calm expression. "Tren's right. We gotta rain check the smoothie guys, if not our high score's gonna be beaten in a matter of minutes. Data's fixing the stream for us so now's our chance." Ze knew that a few passerbys had looked strangely at hir but it didn't matter. They couldn't get caught. Especially because their leader was giving them time to escape. "Our toys gotta go too, just in case." As ze spoke ze pulled out the cell hir had used to communicate so discreetly with Kenshin. "I've let them know. Ditching our toys to be sure." With that ze ended the chat and activated the sleeping virus in hir cell phone. Each and everyone of them kept an induvidual copy of the virus on their cells to be activated just in case. It would completely erase the cell phone in half a minute, operating system included, but only Kenshin could activate it remotely since he had made it, they themselves had to activate it manually. As the now activated virus ate up hir cell Xan felt a bit mournful for a moment, ze had really gotten to like hir cell phone. Ah, well, it was always possible to get a new one.




Leo had just entered the vicinity of the alarm range as it went off. Seeing that it had been Hashiro who had called out the alarm about the presence of the Starlight Hackers, he decided on calling the man. While waiting for Hashiro to pick up he got the cell connected to the car's speaker system before putting the cell out of the way. It was awkward enough to drive using only hand and half his attention, being pulled over for a traffic violation would actually be a bit worse. At least Jamie wasn't around to get annoyed or point out how much of a workaholic Leo was.

 

[The Music Man]

"Ill be sad to see it go, but it's necessary." He went through his phone and activated the virus, and he watched his phone slowly deteriorate electronically. "Before we get new ones though, we have bigger problems." He took a couple of steps before hearing the sirens of the cars. Out of instinct, he drew his blade. "What do you guys think? Fight or flight?" He lowered the point to the ground, but still off of it, just in case he needed to use it. Man am I glad I sharpened you today, old friend. He turned to look at his friends, his allies, his family. This would be interesting on how they got out of here this time..



((*kneels and bows* SO very sorry for not posting!! I'm having a bit of a difficult stage, and it's unfortunately caused me to have days where I don't go to sleep until 4-5 in the morning, just to get up at six to repeat the cycle.))

Tony sat down in his chair "Ah it's almost done just a few more minutes and should a free cable T.V" Tony put his feet up on the table "Yep this is the life. Being all alone not having to worry about others. Or someone telling what to do every 5 to 10 minutes" Tony takes his feet off the table and Opens up a near by coke bottle. He takes a sip of it "Ahhhh" he turns around and looks inside of his home "I can't believe I got this warehouse for such a cheap price." Tony stops and thinks to himself "I think I should add more cash to my credit card" Tony turns around to face his computer "and the person who will be giving me free money is....MR.BETH Thanks for the gift money Mr.Beth" Tony pushes a button and 10,000 is transferred to his fake bank account

The group of Starlight Hackers was still standing outside the cafe when they heard the sirens. Tren did as the others had, typing a simple four digit code into her cell phone, prompting it to delete it's memory. The noise was getting nearer now and Tren saw Silver draw his sword and she mentally scoffed. Sometimes that boy could act really impulsively. "Don't be stupid," Tren said, looking down the street for the sirens. She didn't see any cars yet which meant that they still had some time to disappear. "We're running, of course," Tren muttered, looking for the quickest way for her to get out of there. "In different directions. We can't stay together; they'll catch us for sure that way." With a nod to her companions, Tren darted off, not wanting to stick around for another second more. The last thing she wanted was to be captured by the Legion.

The small athletic girl slipped deeper into the busy mid-morning street traffic. Boy was she glad for the crowds and crowds of people who were traveling to work by foot. After she'd made it a couple of blocks, Tren tossed her now useless cellphone in a nearby trashcan, slowing her run to a fast paced walk. She looked up at the dreary sky, grateful that it looked like rain- it gave her an excuse to wear the hood on her hoodie and further hide herself from any attention from the cops. Thankfully, it seemed she'd got out of the chaos in time. The sirens had faded into the distance and Tren rounded the last corner before reaching her destination: the public library. She knew she couldn't risk going home right now, just in case. So, what better place to hide than the library? She was relatively positive no one would think to look here since it had pretty much become an ancient relic and very few people even remembered it existed. Tren, however, loved this place, no matter how run down it appeared. She loved reading and holding the books in her hands- there was something satisfying about turning a page. It just wasn't the same as flicking a finger across the screen of a tablet. Tren made her way inside and down the rows of books until she reached her place. A soft, red plush chair was waiting for her and Tren grabbed the novel she'd been reading the last time she'd been here off the small shelf nearby. She'd probably finish the huge book before she felt it was safe to head home again, so she settled in, glad to be out of danger for the time being.

So far it had been a rather uneventful day. Vanessa sat quietly at her desk, sipping her morning coffee. Well, her second cup of morning coffee. With a sigh, the woman placed the mug down on the table top gently, swiveling around in her leather desk chair. There was literally nothing else to do and Vanessa found herself feeling rather bored as she sat alone. The woman looked around her small home office, wanting to find something more worthwhile to be doing; if she sat at her desk any longer she'd probably fall asleep. She'd barely slept at all last night, after all, and she'd crawled out of her bed an hour earlier than usual because she just couldn't get any rest. She figured that there must be a more productive use of her time than laying in bed, staring at the ceiling blankly. So, before her alarm could go off at five o'clock, she was out of bed, showered, and dressed.

Vanessa had already sorted out all of her files and neatly organized the large filing cabinet that sat against the wall. Nothing bothered her more than disorganization and it seemed that she was the only one who took the time to regularly sort through the Titanic Legions massive amount of case files. She guessed that no on else cared to keep paper records anymore but Vanessa felt that it was important to have backup copies of all the information stored on the Legion's huge electronic database, just in case. The woman sighed again and stood up, dropping her aimless thoughts as she did. Before she could walk out of her room, her phone had a mini seizure, flashing and ringing harshly."An alarm?" She thought as she picked up the purple cased cellphone. It was in fact an alarm; Hashiro had spotted some Starlights, it seemed. Vanessa let a small smile cross her face before grabbing her black leather jacket and hurrying out of her apartment and toward the alerts origin. Maybe today was going to be more interesting that she'd originally thought.


((Here we go. Both of my charries are up for some interaction. xD ))

 

[gamerman879]

Away from the action of the high speed chase between government forces and a ragtag group of teenagers out for coffee, a battle was being fought.

This was not a physical battle, no, something so crude as martial combat would be unsuited to resolve this conflict. This battle was not over land, or resources, or any of the numerously petty things humans try to hoard in their greed and quests for happiness. The battle that was being fought was one of ideals, the format of combat a deep engaging intellectual debate, and the battleground? A small image board located deep in the recesses of the internet.

Fingers danced across keyboards at ludicrous speeds, each combatant skillfully and methodically crafting their post that would surely crush their enemies and force them to see enlightenment. Members from all across the globe joined this battleground, each with their own agenda and ideas and every single one convinced they were right without fail.

F5 keys were mashed, enter keys destroyed, minds boggled at obscure Captcha verification images, some spent hours responding to entire swaths of posts, striking down the inferior opinions of many in one fell blow, while others shot out responses like snakebites: quick and efficient, always reacting to new information and thinking on their feet.

Now, the subject matter of this battle was clearly of the utmost importance, and indeed it was. The current topic of discussion could be read to all at the top of the thread, in bright blue lettering, as if yelling a challenge to all who viewed it to join the grand tournament unfolding below. It read:

"Rin is best girl, prove me wrong."

Of course, this was referring to the currently airing anime: Limited Shield Works

As if to add insult to injury, the body of the thread further incited readers to fall into the pit of bickering which made up this particular thread:

"Protip: You can't."

Sweat poured down Isaac's forehead as he went about his work, fingers blitzing across the keyboard faster than a road runner on cocaine, crafting the one singular post which would crush every dissenting opinion into the dust and make these plebeians realize who the best two dimensional fictional girl really was, because that is of the utmost importance.

After roughly 30 minutes and 3 water bottles worth of perspiration, Isaac let out a sigh of relief and admired his post, it was beautiful, a work of art. Truly any who gazed upon it would fall to their knees and realize the error of their ways and praise him for delivering them to the promised land, it read:

">implying Rin is the best girl
>implying Sakura isn't the undisputed queen
Are we even watching the same show? How can any of you plebs like that unpure, disgusting piece of trash tsundere Rin, when in the very same episode we are introduced to the beautiful flower that is Sakura? What does Rin have, that Sakura doesn't (besides STDs)? Sakura is prime waifu material, she can cook, is loyal, and is much more kawaii than that bitch Rin who is only good for eating your food and being bossy.

Sakura-chan is the one and only best girl, and by even implying Rin could be anywhere near her on the pillar of purity is an insult of the highest caliber, leave this site immediately."

Smiling to himself, already envisioning the Rin-lovers breaking down into tears as their reality crumbles around them, Isaac quickly filled in the Captcha verification image and hit "Post".

His web browser paused for a moment, before loading an error page, in large, bold red text, it displayed:
"You seem to have mistyped the verification, please reload the page and try again."
Isaac stared at the error message until the page automatically refreshed, revealing a blank post form, ready to be filled out.
A tear began to well up in his eye as he realized the gravity of what had just taken place.
His masterpiece, his magnum opus, the work of art he had poured his soul into; gone in an instant.

He clenched his fists in race, a snarl appearing on his chubby face as the tear finds it's way down his cheek.

Infuriated, he quickly exists the imageboard and is greeted by his background image, a mosaic of his beloved Sakura-chan, with the ever present reminder on the bottom "Jet fuel can't melt steel girders."

After looking at his beloved for a while, Isaac began to calm down, and went back to the image board, but to a different sub forum, this one relating to news around japan.

Most of the threads were basic, day to day stuff: Japanese government putting fluoride in the water, citizens freedoms slowly being destroyed by various shadow organizations, etc. But one thread in particular caught his eye, it was about a chase between several unmarked police vehicles he quickly ID'd as TL cruisers, chasing a group of teenagers. The poster of the thread attached an image, and he quickly recognized the blue hair of Silver (A better name would be blue, Isaac had always thought) as well as the telltale faces and styles of the rest of the crew. Despite never having met the other members of Starlight in person, Isaac had done his research like any reasonably cautious (read: extremely paranoid) individual should, and knew at least the appearances of his comrades in arms.

Isaac shook his head, what had they gotten themselves into this time? But then he thought: maybe this wasn't limited to just SH members, maybe this was the beginning of it all, martial law, armed police squads in the streets, the rounding up of dissenters, transportation to internment camps, torture followed by execution after he admits to his crimes...

Quickly, Isaac checked the perimeter sensors he'd set up remotely by piggy-backing on the local wifi networks and radio signals bouncing around the area, and breathed a sigh of relief when they gave the all clear. So it wasn't happening. Yet.

He decided that getting some more info on the whole situation would be for the best, so he picked up his phone and sent a text to Silver and Tren, with the shaky cell-phone picture of them running from the TL cruisers with the message:
"Up to no good kids?"

However, moments after he pressed the send button he received an error message: "Recipient out of service range or does not exist."

"Hm, they must have disabled their phones, or they're being jammed. This could be serious, I'll check with Data, just to be sure."

Keying in a new message addressed to Data, Isaac sent the image found in the thread, with the contents
"Dats, Found this on the Net, tried contacting the kids, phones are bricked, little bird have anything to tell me? -Z-B"
The message sent this time, and Isaac waited for a response while watching the thread about the chase.

Austin opened his eyes and looked up quickly. It took a second for his mind to process where he was. He was in his apartment, at his desk. One of his three holographic monitors displayed two pages of random letters written in Microsoft word. He had fallen asleep on his keyboard, again. He pushed his chair back, yawned and stretched his legs. He rubbed his forehead. He couldn't help but smile at himself. He checked the time on his phone. It wasn't too late in the morning. He adjusted his glasses and stood up. He rolled his neck around a bit and looked at his calendar. Nothing required his attention today. Perfect day to do nothing he thought.

In the space of 30 minutes he took a shower and got ready for the day. His hair was still a little wet as he went to his computer to check the recent news. Aswell as check up on some...things. Instead of the usual rabble he was greeted with a red priority signal. Well there goes my day. He cursed under his breath and sat down. Apparently a government reasearch lab was hacked and another building had been destroyed. On top of that, some security feed got plain as day recordings of the perp behind the bomb explosion, Aswell as the pursuit of some suspects in progress. "Well now we're cooking." He said to himself. He tapped into the local traffic and security cameras. He attempted a facial recognition scan. Due to the high population density he got only one result, A girl in a library. He picked up his phone and called Hishiro. He waited eagerly for him to pick up.

Typing threw the traffic interface and downloaded a program that turns on green lights permanently allowing free flow incoming traffic from other lanes. ''This should get at least one of them'' he said before he tapped into the near by security camera to see a pickup truck hit one of the cop cars head on which killed the two cops inside and the driver who hit them. Waiting till the cops get near the cafe it was only relevant that he activated a traffic jam trap that will be unable to pass by car so Kenshin swap and run his finger across the hologram screen activating 4 security traffic metal poles to extend near the cafe causing two cop cars to crash into the metal poles head on but only injuring the cops inside. ''That should stop them, hopefully they got away'' He questioned himself in hopes that they escaped in time. Clapping his hands together causing the hologram to close, walking to the living room and falling back first onto the couch, putting his arms behind his head and began watching TV. ''Wonder where they are going to go now?...'' he thought whilst watching his favorite TV show.

Dropping the cigarette to the ground then stomping on it which caused sparks beside of his shoe. ''Ding ding ding'' a sound emitted from his coat pocket, ''my phone'' Hashiro said whilst taking out his phone to realize that multiple people was calling him at once. ''i'll just tell them to meet me at the local cafe'' sending a message to everyone who called him to meet him at the local cafe. Putting his phone back into his jacket he looks back up to notice two police cars hitting the security road block poles head on. ''Dang... hope there ok'' He said in a rather modest tone, walking back into the cafe to get a QnA with the waiter but then looking up to the front desk the waiter seems to have hide somewhere or ran out of the back door. ''hmm'' instead he walks in and leans against the front desk waiting for the others to arrive. The other cops got out of the car and set up a hologram yellow tap around the cafe while the one cop contacts the local hospital.

Xan had looked at Silver increduously before speaking bluntly. "Our orders is to run." Ze didn't linger any beyond that, what ze feared the most about being captured was not loosing hir freedom, but falling under the control of the person ze wanted dead the most. Not that Xan would even mention hir past anytime soon.

Weaving through alleyways ze kept out of sight from the cameras, almost as paranoid as a mouse being chased by a cat. Finding the right alleyway after quite a long run the teen took the time to breathe. Uncovering a hole in a fence ze slipped through before making sure to put it back in place. within the fence was some old buildings, walking over to a corner ze found the window ze knew was ajar. Clicking hir tongue in annoyance the teen had to take off the hoodie so there was less chance getting caught on something sharp. Tossing the hoodie in the teen climbed in after. Finding the place deserted and covered in dust it didn't take long for the teen to locate a small backpack containing a change of clothes, some money and a cell phone. Hoping that the battery hadn't died in the interim of being off the teen turned it on. Sighing in relief as it came to life Xan wrote in several different activation codes and passwords. It would take a couple of minutes before it would be ready but the time was spent on changing clothes.

Once into the fresh clothes Xan's expression morphed into pure annoyance and disgust. The new hoodie was a couple of sizes too small so the fabric clung to hir torso and the pants were to short, resembling more snug capris instead of the usually loose army-style pants. The clothes, in their off size revealed a more feminine figure, removing the ambiguity that Xan worked hard to maintain. "Damn, I look like a girl..." Looks like the next order of business was to find looser clothes before even attempting to meet up with the others.

~~~~~~

Reading the message Leo sighed and changed his direction from towards the HQ to the cafe. It was more difficult than expected as there was one crash of police cars in the way. Frowning he hoped the officers were okay but he couldn't just stop and ask, signs of the hacking terrorists was more important than a car crash, he just had to prioritize that way.

Finding a second crash site right by the cafe in question he sighed and parked a few blocks away. Grabbing his bag with the laptop he made sure to pay for a parking ticket before setting it in sight inside the car. Locking the car he finally made way through the masses, showing the badge when he absolutely had to before entering the cafe and finding Hashiro. "Care to fill me in?" He asked as he sat down next to the man and pulled out his laptop. He had put it together himself and the processing speed made it a gamer's dream while the graphics worked as a demerit for any gamer loving HD graphics. The young man had prioritized capacity over any other secondary component, so the laptop looked professional made sure that it wouldn't be used for any kind of entertainment.

 

[Xytheus]

Austin got Hishiros message. He grabbed a thin polished black device that covered most of his forearm. Much like a forearm guard for archery, except it projected a three dimensional screen onto flat surfaces. He put on his shoes and grabbed his keys before leaving and locking his apartment. He used his armband to check his security system. Everything was working.

He went out to the carpark and quickly got into his car. He would usually feel pretty good walking through the small garden that he had to go through to get to his car but he did not feel that today. He was on business.

He arrived to cafe. His heart sank. He drove right by the truck accident that killed the two cops. These people are screwed up. He thought as pulled into a parking spot outside the cafe. He had to flash his badge to get past the police barrier. He entered the cafe to see Hishiro and Leo already inside. "Exciting morning?" He asked Hishiro.

 

[Darkstar]

Tony got up from his chair "Alright time to get out of the house" Tony picked up his phone from his computer desk "I guess I should try the Hack App I mad for myself" Tony walked out the door and started to head to a near by cafe. Tony was waiting for the light to change for he can walk across "Forget this" Tony took out his phone and unlocked it. when he unlocked it he pointed to the light and pressed a button. When Tony pressed the button the light changed and Tony walked across the street and kept on walking towards the cafe.

 

[gamerman879]

Slightly put off by Data not responding to him, Isaac's imagination began to run wild.

"Maybe the feds got him. Maybe he was with the legion all along, and it's all coming into place for the final move. Maybe we've all been played like fools, and walked right into their keikaku (TN: keikaku means plan). Maybe they have a SWAT team outside the door right now, and my sensors had been hacked and given a feedback loop to look normal, shit shit shit IT'S HAPPENING."

Deciding that the end was nigh, Isaac did the only thing he could.

He went to his favorite internet image board and began typing up a post on the politics board.

"How can you fucking sheep tolerate the twilight legion, haven't you seen that they have obviously been set up by a foreign agency like the FBI or CIA in order to de-stabilize us as a country and drive us to the greatest evil, cultural Marxism? They've already begun altering the laws and regulations of our once proud, great nation to emasculate us and turn us into meek slaves.
>2020
>Still believing that the Starlight Hackers are a threat and not an excuse to destroy civil liberty
They're just a bunch of kids fucking around and exposing information on what member of government fucked their secretary, do you really think they pose a big of enough threat to form a cohesive counter-terrorist task force?
Fuck no, it's a false flag operation by the government along with foreign powers to turn our nation into docile cattle.

I bet there's going to be a bunch of TL shills posting in this thread, mark my words."

Isaac looked at his work, satisfied, but it needed something... more.

He quickly searched through his folders for a hastily constructed infographic which teniously linked circumstansual evidence with arrows drawn in MS paint, and attached it to his post.

"Perfect."

At this point, a flashbang had not been thrown through his door, nor had he heard the SWAT team kill his dog, so he assumed he was wrong about the happening, turning away from his two by four foot poster of Ron Paul with a sigh, he decided to try and contact the group again, sending a message to Xan, specifically. "Yo degenerate, I saw the chase online, whats the story?"

 

[The Music Man]

The second he heard the order to run, he spun and bolted away. "Meeting spot, 2 days from now!" he shouted as he ran, hoping they heard, or at least one of them did. He continued to run then realized he still had his blade drawn. He stopped and sheathed it, drawing his hood as he went, I need to get to internet as soon as possible, and a new phone. I wonder if Isaac is still at his old hideout? He began walking there, avoiding as much attention as he could, and looking for a place to grab a phone.

((sorry for the little info here, but I explained why in the chat))

 

[dragonesper]

Being snapped out of hir thoughts ze glanced at the replacement ze had stored away and now rebooted. Clicking hir tongue at the name being Z-B instead of the others. Annoyed ze paused a little before answering. "Nah, just getting some exercise, you should try that sometime hermit. Maybe your BBS-posts would actually be intelligent."

Seeing that the internet connections were shaky in this part of town and that the replacement cell had only a quarter of battery, most likely thanks to energy leakage, there was no other choice for the disgruntled teen to get moving. First to replace the clothes, that was a priority, and then to get the cell phone charged. After that ze would bug Kenshin to why he had contacted them in the first place, had it been so long since they last updated him on things?

 

[gamerman879]

Isaac quickly replied to Xan "Sorry you can't see the big picture, shill, I'm on to something big and I'm right about to blow the casket off of it instead of poisoning my body with coffee."

Isaac pushed the send button, followed by a long refreshing swig of Mountain Dew™.

Suddenly, his area alarm went off.

Dropping the now empty Mountain Dew™ bottle to the floor in surprise, Isaac rushed to his monitor, pulling up the security display.

The disturbance was on the main road, the driveway in fact. It was Silver, as a quick CCTV check confirmed.

"Fuck, he better not have been followed here." Isaac muttered, feeling the need to put on pants and a shirt for the first time this week. This proved to be quite the task, as his laundry basket seemed to fill with a speed proportionate to his time spent online. Nobody had solved this mystery yet, surprisingly however he managed to find a large beige t-shirt and some jeans with only a few ketchup stains on it.

---------------------------

The scene which greeted Aiden was that of a small, suburban home. It was made in a western bungalow style, with only one visible floor. It was the perfect cover, a home which looked neat and taken care of, a nice rose garden, clean windows, clean cut grass, everything that would lead the casual observer to believe this was no different than any other middle class home.

Leading from the street was the driveway, and a small cobble path which lead to the porch and a nice wooden door, and a very welcoming "Welcome!" mat in front of it.

laying down on his couch he realized that it was about time to call everyone and so with a simple thrust of the wrist and a slight movement of the finger every device around the spread out individual Starlight members that had a speaker cracked and screeched while soon after a voice was heard. ''Meet over at my house'' Kenshin said with a confident tone that there wasn't police near them, fingered that they would be quick enough to escape far enough so the announcement wasn't heard by any police or detectives. It was weird because most of the members haven't seen his face yet, however this was more important than keeping his identity a secret. Kenshin has been working on devices that has yet to be tested but that's besides the point, These devices were very important and it was apart of there next job. His house had by far the strongest security to it than all of the other Starlight member houses, to get threw the door was nearly impossible unless it is opened from the inside or a program that only the Starlight hackers knew about.

Taking a glance at everyone's badges before getting to business was a must, however it was needless to repeat the process. Grabbing the phone in his jacket and dossing it to Austin then immediately responding with a command as if he was the commanding officer on duty, ''Detective Austin, Run a Data check on this phone and document everything you see.'' Following with another command, ''Leo, follow me we will investigate the cafe while we wait for Tony.'' Walking towards one of the seats that Hashiro remembered the group of teenagers were sitting at and looking around it it was clear that it was indeed the same seat. ''A group of teenagers came in here and sat down here which they proceeded to chat with one another, it was only clear to me that they were of the starlight hackers when one of them pulled out a weapon and strange data came threw the tracker that i planted on them in suspicion of illegal activity''. by this time a few police officers arrived inside in a salute manner, Hashiro looked over and proceeded to command them in a direct fashion, ''You two officers perform recon around the cafe and report back here if you find anything''. Detective were set on investigating the inside of the cafe whilst the rest of the police force investigated the surrounding area.​

 

[dragonesper]

Xan let out a sound of annoyance at the message from Isaac and gave a quick response back: "You mean paranoid drivel." Not bothering to elaborate there wasn't any need either as the message from Kenshin came in. So it was work. That meaning Xan had to drop the small job that had the promise of money. Sighing ze shrugged and put all hir except the old clothes in the backpack. The older hoodie and the pants had taken a beating when escaping through holes in fences and through alleyways, not only that, ze had also been spotted wearing those clothes so there was that too.

While leaving the abandoned building the teen brushed of the last of the dust and headed towards Kenshin's place. On the way ze kept an eye out for both cops and any kind of clothing store that held hir preferred kind of outfit. Underneath all hir annoyance was a growing discomfort at actually looking feminine. Spotting a thrift store in a small side street the teen entered. Spotting a surveillance cam on the corner Xan decided to be fast, no way ze wanted any pictures of hirself looking girly, ze had already made so much effort to erase hir past self, if only ze could get rid of those last files...

Making it fast ze just picked out a loose sweater and a pair of not-as-tight pants. Safely estimating that those fit the teen paid quickly wanting to just find a place to change that didn't have a surveillance cam. Making plans and considering possible risks at the same level of a conspiracy theorist there was no location the teen could think of on the way to Kenshin's place that didn't carry some level of risk especially now that the TL actually had a lead on them.

When finally Kenshin's place the teen hoped for a few things; being there first, getting no comments on the clothes and getting the chance to chance out of the outfit that brought hir discomfort. The teen didn't hate femine styles or outfits, as long as ze was not the one to wear them. Doing the moot action of ringing the doorbell the teen already knew that he knew of hir presence.

Following Hashiro the young man made sure to bring his still shut off laptop. Leo knew it was old fashioned to not use touchable holograms for everything but it was by using a keyboard and reading on a screen that had been his way of learning how to hack. Of course he was fully adept at hacking through holograms, but it was still his personal style to use older types of tools, he was also slightly more effective using a laptop.

Listening to his commanding officer until the disruption of the two police offers reporting to Hashiro he waited until the two had left for their job. "And how was the data strange? Was there some kind of encryption your tracker couldn't decipher or?" He paused, realizing that if it was the matter of the strange data then that would be up to Austin to figure out. "But that isn't what you want me to check out, is it?"

((Whoa... So long... But Xan is so fun to write :p))

"Yes, sir." Austin responded. He wasted no time. He took his wrist band and set it on one side of the table. Quickly a blue grid pattern appearred across the surface in front of Austin. He set the phone down on the grid and the pattern changed to outline the phone. "Scan device." He said to the hologram. Immediately a small display appeared next to the phone. Several codes ran across it in blue lettering. "Bypassing password now. I'll have it in a few." He said. He tapped another part of the grid and he pulled up security camera feeds from minutes ago. "I'll also check the camera recordings in the area. See if I can get a good look at their faces. Austin sat back in his chair and let the programs do their thing.
