Chapter 1: A New Power[/align]
Contractors – A contractor is an individual who uses special powers in exchange for a price. The power is usually related to the price paid and in some cases a price can be paid in full but this is a rare case. In addition to them obtaining new powers they seem to lose all sense of emotion and act rationally rather than being guided by emotions.
Dolls – A doll is a being who does not do a single activity unless told to do so. Much like contractors Dolls were previously humans who have lost emotion. The difference between a contractor's powers and a Doll's is that a doll can use specters to see long distances through a medium. This medium could be anything from water to brick to glass.
Specter – Specters are controlled by dolls. They are like secondary eyes for a doll. These can only be seen by contractors and other dolls. To them it appears as a few bits of black material surrounded in a blue aura.

The Gate Incident – During the sun's latest sun spot cycle there was an incredible surge of energy from the center of Hell's Gate caused by BK201 and the Meteor Shard. The energy surge was then transferred into that star and used to end the destruction of all contractors. After news of this plan was released to the press, along with the existence of contractors and dolls, the public had a field day pointing fingers at PANDORA.
With the Director of the Tokyo Police involved in this situation it was almost a total breakdown of the high ranking research government positions. Now with new and younger members filling in the spots PANDORA struggles to recuperate as the Syndicates battle it out for control of the Tokyo City.
Tokyo is down to three factions in the streets. The first, of course, is the Tokyo Police. They try to keep the order and take what advantages they got against the other two forces. With their restricted gun power they are forced to rely on hired contractors to settle larger and more intense affairs.
The second is an American mobster group called Pike. Their biggest claim is the resources they have backing them. Although they are a prominent group in the city it does take awhile for them to have "resources" shipped over to them. Seeing as most of those items are illegal and the distance covers a lot of checkpoints they tend to arm light and recruit many contractors. Sticking with the group you are assigned to has been something of a trademark in the Pike group.
Finally there is the New Chinese Syndicate. This group of gangsters, unlike Pike, are operated out of a counsel of families. Each control their own men and discuss things together. With different people controlling some of the power there have been inner squabbles before. To prevent any kind of devious plans being concocted they thought it was best if each team was strictly assigned and changed on a regular basis. Each team usually has one human, one doll, and one contractor. The time they work together varies on the job they are assigned to. Sometimes it is just a day and sometimes it is a month.
With all three constantly fighting each other there was no way anyone could tell what was to happen next. In one day the city would go from a quiet place to a battlefield. The one question that was asked the most…what started it? Well it was early that morning a certain Syndicate member was found dead in a hotel. His name was Mao Xai and the calling card left by his assassin was the ace of hearts with a knife through it straight into his heart.
The time is eight in the morning, and the day shift for the Tokyo Police is just receiving word of his death. Things have to be kept under control so what are you to do?
