Abraham Villareal/Azrael
"This cannot be your plan. You want us to split up and have a pair of us serve as distraction? This has the potential to be your worst plan yet Milo".

Milo sighs out, "Look, it's foolproof as long as each of you carry out each step of the plan according to the letter".

Carter crosses his arms, "Just go ahead and tell of us what's your plan".

"Very well", a layout of the Luxtech processing facility map pops up on screen, "This is their processing facility. It's not quite extensive but it's still big enough that it requires a substantial amount of security".

Five looks at the positions in which security is located in, "Any sign of heavy hitters amongst security?"

"Not really. Most is just standard security wielding light weaponry", Milo presses a button and a layout of the area around the facility pops up, "Unfortunately, this facility is right around the Phantom Strikers patrol area..."

"So what you're saying is that if things go south and we run into the Phantom Strikers, the first thing they will see is us trying to stop them from interrupting a robbery?", everyone looks back at Milo.

Milo rubs the back of his neck as he avoids looking at us, "I said the plan was foolproof, not that the plan would be easy. If it's any consolation, the Phantom Strikers never patrol together. They split up into small groups and take certain quadrants, whenever they arrive, Five and Abraham will basically be throwing the dice to see who they get".

Five is shocked out of his bored gaze, "Wait did you say me and Abraham?"

A muffled chuckle comes out of my mouth, "Well I'd be lying if I said I didn't expect this to happen. What's your rationale for choosing us two?"

"At this point, both of you are our heavy hitters so it'd be crazy not to use you as bait for security. It's not really about managing to push security back but holding back security and the Phantom Strikers until Eve, Carter, and I are able to leave with the materials", he walks over to computer and pulls out two badges, "So I managed to place an order on the materials we need and managed to create fake badges in order to get us into the shipping area. We'll use these badges to get in and wait till they load up the order into a truck and that's when Abraham and Five will pick a fight with security thus prompting them to call in the Phantom Strikers to take care of business".

Eve looks around, "What will I do?"

Milo points to the water towers surrounding the facility, "How good are you at basic water manipulation?"

Eve thinks for a moment, "Well Grealish has taught me the basics".

"That should be enough. You'll wait in the truck and on my signal you'll burst the water tanks, the short term flooding should distract everyone. At that point, Marie will open a portal and that will be the signal for Abraham and Five to flee. We'll rendezvous back at base while we unload the cargo away from base near our old base", Milo looks back at everyone, "So is everyone ready?"

Everyone looks back at me as I sigh out, "Let's see how this works out I guess. We'll leave in 10 minutes".

Grey Knight, Twinblade, and Hydraulics
The moonlight beams down on us as we jump from building to building before resting and looking around, the rest of the team got back from Ultra Domain and I insisted they take a break to allow the younger members a chance to patrol. Twinblade stands with her arms crossed as she looks around, it hasn't been too long since she was cured of her brainwashing and her outbursts seem to have increased lately. Hopefully this patrol will help in teaching her how to limit her blood thirst when in the heat of battle, I've seen too many good warriors lose themselves in pursuit of strength and I cannot allow a teammate to go through that, "See anything interesting Twinblade?
