Gantu swoops through the city, calling out locations of demons and deevils for his allies and making saving civilians his own priority. He did his best not to interfere in conflicts between the supernatural menaces.

Dukat does likewise, mercilessly destroying anyone who would threaten civilian safety and picking his battles where they might do the most good, if possible.

Kira, well, Kira likes to kill things. As many things as possible. He continues with his aforementioned plan of destroying incoming transports by invading them in astral form, destroying a vital system, then evacuating the same way he went it. He would try to invade wherever had the least resistance, but wouldn't care about taking a few shots if it meant bringing down an entire ship (ie. engine room, main reactor, or even the bridge provided he can catch them off guard and drop a sufficiently large explosive). He is, after all, immortal, and in this instance would happily put his immortality to the test. If he ever gets to the point where his MDC is between 0 and 130 below zero, he will seek immediate and powerful healing from whatever ally is able to provide it.

If that still proves too difficult, he will simply slaughter any enemies he can get his hands on on the streets, being wise not to pick anything too big for him to handle on his own. If he saw allied troops in pitched combat, he would gladly show up and save the day by flanking the enemy and causing mad chaos in their ranks, making sure the allied troops knew who was responsible for their eased victory in battle by being as flashy and brutal as possible.

*note that I chose talents for Kira to give him ridicu-dicu-donculous mobility and stealth, so I don't think either of these missions is entirely beyond him.

The initial waves of demons into the city are nothing more than cannon fodder. Lesser demons of all shapes and sizes fill the city streets. Lasae, gargoyles and banshees are found everywhere. With a little team work and a couple scrapes and bruises here and there, upper Manhattan is cleared of demonic presence by the time the sun rises.

Gantu basked in the sunlight for a moment. Any damage he had sustained quickly faded as his regeneration was near instant. Rejoining the group, he asked, "So what now? That can not have been all there was."

He makes notice of the red, whip-like lines and tries to determine their purpose as Captain O'Connell ponders his next move.

==Kira==

With the carriers down, the blood of his enemies on his hands, and a feast of PPE, Kira has had the best day he can remember since arriving on this wretched planet. He knows that this is only the beginning, but what a beginning! the dull planet holds such promise, and with the leylines flaring and the pyramids constructed, Kira has access to such power!

He calls his vehicle to follow him, enjoying the feeling of self powered flight as he returns to the closest pyramid to regenerate. He hadn't taken too many hits and those he had taken were regenerated soon enough, but he needed to get back to the center of operations to see what the next step was.

==Dukat==

Dukat was happy. This planet was fun! It had interesting people, great food, and even and inter-dimensional war! Today he had feasted on so many hearts he lost count.

After the fighting ceased, Dukat feasted. Feasted on "the world's best pizza". On his way back to the pizza shop, he found a variety store with good spilling out on to the street, and picked up a can of peanut butter.

The pizza shop wasn't open, but the windows were, and the people had been considerate enough to leave the heat lamps running over a few still rotating pizzas. Dukat took a heart, sliced it up, mashed it with peanut butter (he used both hands for this, and made sure the jar was thoroughly shredded in to the mixture), and ate "pepperoni and peanut buttered raw demon heart pizza".

Dukat was happy.

Once sufficiently recovered, Kira will claim all the bounties on the terrorists he slaughtered while in Africa.

Kira:
Recovery is quick. The person/thing that came through the portal that opened the evening before is still in the brig. The American government is in shambles, there is no one to provide the bounty. As Kira is passing by the brig the man/thing stands up. "You are wanting information. Information about the plans, opposing force numbers, gateways, entry points. I know these things. If you want this information, you will give me what I want. It is a simple thing, an easy thing."

Kira crosses his arms and considers the man. "OK... So what information do you have and, perhaps more importantly, why are you so willing to share it. It is a matter of universal truth that nothing comes for free, and anything that seems to be free us always absurdly costly in the end."

Glauis considers his options, he knows that Vince knows more about this then he did when it came to these things "I know you know something Vince, any suggestions?"

Asv. Follows the others, taking up as bait and leading the creatures to the rest of the group.

Kira:
The man looks over Kira for a moment. "Not everything comes with a price that you, or any other in the situation you are in would not be willing to pay, happily. My price is to fight these demons, not for any sense of human camaraderie, for Sucor-Bemoth took my humanity away, yet allowed me to retain those memories. He gave me nearly the power of a Vampire Intelligence, in the body of a human. I was to be an assassin, sent here to kill those who opposed the demons. To be able to walk among them, to walk among you and assess your strengths and expose them. To prove that I am not the assassin that I was created to be, I won't fight alongside you, instead I will go my own way. No, I don't think that you would allow that would you? You would want to keep me as close to you as possible, watch my every move. I will be acquiescent to that if you wish. Now, will you pay my price?"

Kira recalls a similar speech he recently gave a guard in another dimension, an assassin who would rather cut a deal, all too familiar. He had never made his mind up about if he would actually partner with the warlock or just kill him, but then, the warlock didn't give him much choice. Kira uses bleed memory on the creature in order to attempt to assess the truth of the situation.

Kira smirks, "the power of a vampiric intelligence in human flesh? Does that mean you also share the vulnerabilities?" Kira opens a window across from the cell, allowing the light to stream in a narrow strip across the cell floor.

The man smirks at the shaft of sunlight. "I said nearly the power of an Intelligence." He sticks his hand into the light, turning it this way and that. "I am quite capable of moving about during the day. Sucor-Bemoth used Soulmancy to bind the powers, but not the vulnerabilities. I am something wholly new and dangerous."

"You have my attention and I am intrigued by what you propose, but when you described yourself as 'dangerous' you used a very apt word. I have no way of knowing how much of what you are saying is the truth, if there is any truth to it at all. Do you have any convincing evidence? If not, you will stay here until my colleagues an I can decide what is to be done with you."

Any suggestions?


"Yes," he sighs, "stop wasting time and issue your battle orders. The longer you wait and ponder our next move, the less likely it is that we will be able to make a decisive first strike. Strike hard, strike fast and grant no quarter, Captain."

Vincent

He looks about the command room, noticing that all eyes are upon the Captain and the expression of the crew is one of fear, anticipation and readiness.

One could not ask for a finer crew...

They deserved better than this, Vince thought. If nothing else, they deserved to die a warrior's death, not one spent awaiting doom as it descended upon them in their captain's indecision! They deserved to write for themselves an epic epitaph of action and deed; they deserved to fight.

No. He would not allow them to be denied their moment of courage, glory and possible survival! He would be their advocate; hungry for battle, Vince addresses the crew.

"Attention on deck! In my current advisory capacity to the captain, as explained to me by the Master Chief, I am second in the ship's chain of command. As such," he turns to face Captain O'Connell, "I formally relieve you of your command for failing to take action against a known aggressor force and on account of your emotional instability which may lead you to lose control of your shape shifting powers, thus endangering the lives of your crew and your ship. In short, you are a compromised asset and need to be adequately secured." He says before making his first order.

"Security, kindly escort Captain O'Connell to sick bay for sedation and observation." He says before addressing the bridge, confident that the crew can employ his orders.

"Alert the flight deck, have all fighters prepped and ready for take off with full explosive compliments. There are demonic air forces that need to be dealt with and we mustn't loose control of our airspace.

"Ready the Marines for deployment to the enemy ships via boarding craft. Ensure that they are issued the best armor for the job and that they are issued the new gravitonic assault rifles they were trained in.

"Have our mercenary garrison on alert for any demonic boarding parties." He says, taking a breath.

"And now it's time to send our adversaries a message; helmsman, bring us into intermediate weapons range of the lead enemy ship. Weapons control, prepare a full bombardment from our ship once we are within range; make them pay dearly for invading this realm, defiling these waters and assaulting your people!"

"Communications Officer! Are there any ships in our fleet still in communication with us?" He asks, a predatory smile gracing his lips.

Glauis couldn't believe what he was hearing, the control he had managed to gain was slowly crumbling away as anger builds up inside him. "Belay that." He snaps, "I have tolerated you for sometime now Mr. Vincent, as an adviser you have yet to advise on anything, other then answering questions with more questions and instigating reactions from the crew and myself." He approaches Vince slowly, "I don't know how you value life where you come from, but these men are not just pawns for you to feed to the fire. I am Captain and acting admiral of this vessel and I am in control of this ship. Do not forget that." His voice is low and dangerous, his fist clenched tightly enough to draw blood from his palm. "A plan of attack is needed, if you have one, I am all ears. This is a known threat but an unknown enemy that has been able to take out the best of our tactics without flinching."

The trio of Marines who were starting to walk towards the captain stop long enough to hear him out. Then they start forward again. "With all due respect sir, the simple fact that you ignored the plan laid by by Mr. Pendragon and then asked him for a plan just proves that you are not in the situation. I am going to ask you to relieve yourself of your weapon and hand it over and come with us to the medical bay."

Meanwhile the jets take off from the flight deck and streak toward the incoming hostiles.

Glauis stands staring at Vincent What the hell is happening? The only other thought was that knocking that smirk off his face would make a world of difference. "It's not a plan, it's a slaughter..." he says more to himself then anyone around him but never taking his eyes off Vince. He reaches for his side arm and a quick thought of using it crosses his mind as he pulls it from it's holster, he can almost see the dead faces and Vince still smiling, he raises the gun... This isn't me... and ejects the clip and chambered round. He holds it out for the Marine to take. He would not fight his own crew, his respect for them prevented that, but if they tried to guide him or grab his arm he would pull away. He could walk on his own.

Vincent

He listens to what Captain O'Connell has to say, never breaking eye contact.

Captain O'Connell
 
It's not a plan, it's a slaughter...


"It would be a slaughter to sit and do nothing or to turn our backs and run. This is an enemy that will show us no mercy and would readily, gleefully put us all to the sword with our backs turned." He says in a calm, measured tone; standing as a pillar amid the hum of busy activity on the bridge as crewmen scramble to employ his orders.

As the captain hands over his sidearm to the Marine, Vince notes it with a sense of satisfaction.

Ah, the spark of reason returns...

"Please standby, Marines." He says before they can remove the captain from the bridge.

"Captain, you are an asset and no one knows this ship or her operations better than you." Vince glances about the bridge before continuing.

"I seem to be short an Executive Officer at the moment. Captain O'Connell, you are welcome to stay on the bridge and serve in that capacity provided you can keep a level head. I could certainly use your help if we are to survive."

He motions to the Marines to wait for Captain O'Connell to respond.

"I seem to be short an Executive Officer at the moment. Captain O'Connell, you are welcome to stay on the bridge and serve in that capacity provided you can keep a level head. I could certainly use your help if we are to survive."

Now he talks to you as a child after making you look incapable in front of your bridge... He lets the angry retort go, it was more out of bruised pride. " I never said that we were turning tail, I would never run from a fight Mr. Vincent, that was never my intentions and if you believe that I would, then you know nothing of me. But a head on attack can also spell disaster. They are already aware of some of our weapons, in other words we shouldn't show the enemy all of our cards." At least on the bridge he could hopefully prevent the destruction of his crew and agrees to stay.

If the prisoner could not present any evidence for what he was saying Kira proceeds to contact those who coordinated this team of super powered freaks to make them aware of their new source of information.

Kira:
The man sits down on the floor. "The first portals opened up in New York and Pittsburgh. They couldn't open any portals in the Ohio river valley, St. Louis or Chicago. So they had to open portals to smaller nexus points. Making it possible to defend the much smaller portal. There should also be a contingent of troop transports and associated wings of gargoyles heading out to meet with a certain ship in the middle of the ocean. The leader of that group is a most viscous Rakshasa who has a score to settle with a certain crew member".

"If what you say checks out there may be hope of allowing you to join our fight. For now, you will have to wait here."

Kira leaves to contact those aboard the Kitty Hawk. When he reaches them he makes only one demand. "Put me in touch with the demon. I have information that could potentially concern his well being, and by extension the lives of everyone on your ship."

OOC: Not sure if Kira knows that Vincent is a demon, but if not then his statement could be a way of testing the legitimacy of the prisoner's claim. The ship in the ocean would presumably be the Kitty Hawk and at this point so early in the war the only way a high ranking demon official would have a score to settle would be if it were with another demon. Even so, I believe that Kira discovered something of Vincent's true nature while aboard the Kitty Hawk.
