Fifteen minutes. That was how much time she had before Sora turned Ghost Rider and went after this Hei Nerr guy. She'd taken the bus and sent a message to Lea in the proccess.
Huge problem, think you could lend me a hand? I'll explain more later. If you're not at Veil already, can you meet me there?
-Shiki
As an after thought she sent another.
Also, please don't tell Neku.
The bus finally stopped and she rushed off, bolting into Veil and looking around for the red head.

He was standing outside when she got there.
"Shiki, what's up?" he asked as she came bolting up. "Calm down, what's the matter? Did something happen?"
He was getting a very bad feeling about this...

She nodded, explaining as quick as she could, "There's this guy, apparently he hacked into the Network chat and started threatening everyone. Now he's after Aqua, he wants to kill her. His powers nullify Otherborn abilities, so I need your help."

"Nullifies... alright. Just relax, alright?" He sighed, pulling a hand through his hair. "I need to get some things from the backroom. I'll be out in a sec, just wait here. DOn't do anything stupid." He paused. "Why did you specifically ask me not to tell Neku? If the guy hacked the Chat, Neku already knows."

"Oh yeah...right." Shiki sighed, shook her head, "Didn't think about that, but I was thinking that the more Otherborn show up the worse our powers are going to be. If there are more than five we're all going to be in trouble. And you know Neku...anyway ignore that he'll probably show up."
She wasn't thinking straight which only frustrated her. "Sorry Lea, it's been a really long night."

He put a hand on her shoulder. "Don't worry about it. I'll get Tifa to keep him from doing anything stupid while we're out saving Aqua. Even he's not dumb enough to mess with Tifa." He grinned. "I'll be back in just a minute, so you hang tight, alright?"
He disappeared inside.

"Alright." She watched him go inside and then told herself not to be impaitent.

A few minutes later, he emerged. He'd changed from his bartending uniform into a set of more comfortable regular clothes. A black coat, something that looked a little like a trenchoat, except with a hood, covered dark jeans, tall boots, and a black shirt. A pair of biker gloves covered his hands, and a pack was slung over his shoulder, which clinked with the sounds of metal.
"Come on," he said, somewhat grimly. "Let's go."

Shiki was very used to seeing Lea in his uniform, so she blinked once when she saw him. Then she recovered, "Yeah. Are we taking the bus or what?" Okay, she was used to walking. Not often did she actually catch a ride to go where she needed to.

"LEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA! WAAAAAAAAAIT!" Roxas cried, running up the main street towards Lea and Shiki, passing them, he spun round and flung his arms out, before stubbornly stamping his foot and placing two fists on his hips, leaning in towards them he spoke. "Lea!" He scolded "What are you doing?! You promised that we'd go to the cinema today! You told me you wanted to see the new Kasuka Heiwajima movie!" He frowned "But let me tell ya'! This is not the way to the theater!"

He turned towards Roxas, then hand met forehead.
"OH, crap! I totally forgot!" Then he thought for a second. "Hey, Roxas - you can fight, right? You need to come with us. This guy hacked the Network chat and he's going after Aqua - turns out he absorbs Otherborn powers, we're the only ones who can stop him."

"Well..." He scratched the back of his head with a small hum. In all honesty he'd done little fighting, at least against distinctly strong opponents. His inner demon had taken care of any opponents that really threatened his life exponentially. Then he remembered the chat and the insane messages that the hacker had left, it strengthened his resolve. He gave a firm nod at Lea and then stepped out of the way so that they could all continue "Alright! Let's go!"

That's when a white-haired young man came out of Veil. The hilt of a sword poked out of the back of his coat, but his right arm was encased in a sling. His pale eyes met Lea's green ones.
"Take me with you," he said. "I can help."

"Now hooooooooooooooooold up!" Roxas said, flinging his fists back onto his hips and looking across at the newcomer "I don't even know who you are, and you're injured! I mean, I have no doubt you're tough, I can see your sword sticking out of your jacket and I don't doubt that you can use it!" He closed his eyes and took a stubborn stance, crossing his arms against his chest. "But with an arm in a sling?! Well, I just doubt you'd be any help." He nodded stubbornly before turning back to Lea "I say we just go! Who knows when that guy's gonna' attack!"
"Now now, Roxas..." his inner demon hissed "Let us not judge this book by its cover, look closer at that sling, can't you feel that power?"
Roxas narrowed his eyes and glanced non-nonchalantly at the man stood before them, more specifically his arm encased in the sling. Suddenly a wave of energy hit him as his inner demon opened up Roxas' senses, internally he stubbornly still believed that they didn't need this mystery man's help, but the inner demon scolded him.
"Don't be a child! This opponent is stronger than we realize and we shall need all the help we can get, on top of that it will be a good chance to judge the man's energy level which will be helpful when I later decide if I want to kill him or not. Oh! And Roxas? When you have the time, I would prefer it if you named me. 'Inner Demon' is so bland."

I keep hearing people talking about a fight, so I guess coming to visit Lea is out of the question, huh? But, smiling, I bounce up, "I'm game everyone! I can throw a few punches and maybe a few bites if no crossing is present at least~!" I beam up at Lea at that moment. "Remember be now, Lea?" I stretch and perk up my ears before pulling my hair back into the ribbon.
"I'm ready to beat some bad guy butt!"
