Emile, Leader of a Squad B
Roy walks besides me, "Security is set up rather weirdly. Police forces from outer Marseille are in charge of outer security while the rest wait near barricades. Only different ones here are us alongside the rest of Squad B".

"That is rather strange. Did they tell you why?"

Roy shakes his head as he looks around while we escort the Academy students and their guests, "They said it was official French police business and we weren't cleared to get information", he looks at the few Alpha City guards at the embassy, "There's not many of us. Something is wrong here, I can feel it".

"May how are we looking in regards to weaponry?"

May presses buttons on her wrist pad, "Our armors are stored near here and on us we only carry pistols with two magazines. We're pretty under armed if anything major happens but it shouldn't be a problem considering our combat abilities".

Lucy looks around rather confused, "For a secure even there sure are a lot of police officers wielding rifles. It's as if they're expecting something to happen".

"Just keep your eyes peeled and make sure to surround the guests at all time. Do not let anyone out of your sight".

Hana Tanaka
Courtney takes pictures of everything, "Isn't the embassy beautiful? The architecture is so...gosh I don't have words to describe it".

"It is pretty nice. A lot of work must've gone into this right?"

Amelia nods, "Yeah, it's a miracle the French government allowed it to be built this far away from Paris. Yet someone at the Academy insisted it be built near Marseilles in order to best fulfill its purpose as an outreach center and embassy".

"That's nice, it seems there's still people carrying out the wish of Muhammad Akel. How long are we going to spend here?"

The ACPD officer leading our group looks back at me, "We have to stay here until the end of the opening ceremony. Then we'll head inside the embassy for the opening tour and then head back to the hotel for the night".

I nod and look around, the architecture of the embassy reminds me of the Academy back home. There's a lot of effort put into what should be the first of many embassies scattered around the world. It's a miracle Yama Corp didn't interfere as they always do in these public sector projects, seems there's still people willing to stand up to him back home.

Enzo Silva, Leader of the New Dawn
"Seems the preparations are ready. Let's begin with phase one, someone send word to Akira to move in with his Lazarus brigade towards Monaco. That should keep some of the army busy as we secure control over Marseille". The troops stand in order as they look at me, "The day of reckoning has come. Today we deliver the oppressed masses who have suffered too long under the current regime. This strike shall inspire many to rise up and take control of their destiny. We are the New Dawn and we will rise over this world now and forevermore!" The soldiers each begin to move out and head towards the northern parts where the rest of our troops are ready to strike, today is ours and nothing will stop us.

Akira, Candidate for the Elite Rank
"Seems they've fallen right for our misinformation mission. The fools don't know I haven't moved on Monaco and the berserker poison developed by Curare is sure to take its effect soon".

Han answers over the phone, "That's good. It seems everything is going as planned, you ready for this?"

"Of course, this is all part of my mission to attain the rank of Elite Trinity".

Han laughs, "You Python Air temple assassins are all crazy you know that? Anyways, I was wondering if you could do me a favor?"

"Oh is the great Lais' prodigy asking me a simple assassin for favors?"
