And I can guide a missile by satellite

[liebe_krieg]

WHO: The Major and everyone who signed up to fight in the City.
WHERE: Locations across the City.
WHEN: 11 PM Friday evening.
WARNINGS: So. Much. Violence.
SUMMARY: Operation Gotterdammerung has begun, and with it Case Schwarze: a full air and ground assault against the ImPort community designed to prevent interference with the nuke in Washington. Missiles and vampires ahoy!
FORMAT: Whatever works.
NOTES: Don't forget to add your characters' tags as they join in!

Leaning back in his chair, occasionally taking the time to dictate a response to his post on the communicator, the Major watched happily as his master plan at last unfolded. It was all worth it, he could already tell. The months of planning, the prison takeover, the theft of the bomb, the kidnapping of the Detective, all the promises he’d made to his new comrades, it was all coming together right here in front of him, in the fire and explosions of detonating missiles and attacking vampires. It was the fulfillment of his most cherished dream: a war beyond any man’s history had ever known. Reports from his crew filtered in from all around him:

”Rot Team reports that they are in position Major. Package is secure.”

”Schwarze One reports commencing attack on police station.”

”Missile hit! Confirmed hit on Turing nightclub!”

”Schwarze Five, commencing assault on the Spark Roast.”

”Confirmed missile hits on both prisons!”

He sat and listened and smiled and watched. In less than an hour the device would detonate, and America’s capital would be swallowed up in a mushroom cloud. There would have to be retaliation, retaliation greater than that after Pearl Harbor, retaliation not just at those responsible but also at those who had let it happen because they were too busy looking after their own homes. There would be war, first native against ImPort, but then as things fell apart ImPort against ImPort, native against native, war between teams, countries, movements, alliances! War upon war upon war!

“It has begun,” the Major said to himself, watching the chaos unfold on the array of screens hanging from the ceiling in front of his seat, as well as through the DEM II’s vast observation window. “The dance that cannot end! The symphony I can revel in for all time! The fire that shall never burn out!”

Below, the prelude to that symphony continued.

"Alright. Who else is in the house? Do you know?" Yoite asked, more quietly than normal, barely a whisper. He was normally quiet, but even more so right now. He normally wouldn't talk when sneaking around, but he wasn't with other ninjas who got the idea simply from a look, or the motion of a hand. Things were bit more difficult like this, but he was used to difficult. The end of his life back home had been difficult too.

The look on his face did say that he was really concentrating though, emotionless and focused. "If I have to use Kira, I'd rather not have the others see it..."

"I think everyone's in the house. But I think most of us besides Pokey can fight. And if you have too... people trying to kill us outweighs having to scare the others." she said grimly. The fear was still there, but overridden by determination.

[erasemeplz.livejournal.com]

Yoite didn't reply this time, simply nodding his head in response, though he was still more focused on their surroundings. What worried him more than using his Kira so that the others saw it, was the idea of them noticing trouble and running around and possibly getting in the way of it. He had lost control of it before, and Miharu had once jumped in to take the blow for someone else and got pretty hurt, so it was something worth worrying a bit about.

Pantalaimon's ears twitched.

"Let's see what we're up against first," Lyra said. The sound of multiple footsteps could be heard- and they were coming closer.

[erasemeplz.livejournal.com]

He nodded once, in agreement. Not only what they were up against, but also how many they were up against. Numbers were quite important to know as well.

Ness had been upstairs when he heard the breaking glass--he had taken the time to grab his backpack and his baseball bat before hurrying downstairs. Whatever was going on, he fully intended to make sure the house wasn't breached.

[lyingbrat.livejournal.com]

Lyra heard the footsteps coming down and covered whoever was coming down with her illusion and, like she did to Yoite, allowed them to see through it. When Ness came into view, she gestured to him- she checked her communicator, glad she'd put it on mute, and her eyes widened slightly.

"Vampires. They're vampires, and we got to use silver or take their heads off," she said blankly. Pantalaimon began to bear his teeth. Well, if that was the case, and they were trying to kill them... Lyra wasn't going to hold back.

[erasemeplz.livejournal.com]

Vampires. Well, there had been zombies, so Yoite wasn't too surprised. Taking their heads off shouldn't be too difficult for him at least, his powers were made for those kinds of attacks after all. Still, depending on the numbers, it might become difficult, and he didn't know how much he could use Kira without the negative effects making themselves known. It didn't matter to him, but he knew that mattered to others.

"Removing their heads would be easy for me..."

[soonillbe.livejournal.com]

"" Ness said determinedly. He'd never knocked someone's head off with his bat, but he could do some massive damage with it.

[lyingbrat.livejournal.com]

"If they've got guns, I'll grab 'em. Might be able to take their heads off too," She'd seen Ken rip off zombie's heads with his telekinesis. Time to see if she could to the same thing to vampires. And while Edna's suit might be able to stop bullets, she was the only one wearing it.

"Ready?" she asked, as the footsteps drew nearer.

[erasemeplz.livejournal.com]

Another nod from Yoite, and he glanced back at Ness for a moment, hoping the kid wouldn't be traumatized at least. His Kira had never been the cleanest way to kill someone, and he didn't know what the boy had seen of bloodshed before. Still, getting rid of the intruders was more important right now. Anything else would have to come after everything was safe again.

[soonillbe.livejournal.com]

Ness nodded as well, an unusually solemn look on his face. His bat was out and ready--and he had been known to take down enemies far hardier than humans or vampires with one blow.

[lyingbrat.livejournal.com]

"Then let's go."

Lyra charged into the next room, dropping the illusion as she snatched the some of the guns from the invaders hands with telekinesis, hurting them out the broken window and shoving some of the shards of glass into their faces.

Apparently they could heal, but it would give her teammates a few seconds to attack.

[erasemeplz.livejournal.com]

Following Lyra's lead, Yoite rushed after her, pointing at the first target in sight and then he clenched his hand into a fist, so that its head twisted around and was torn clean off from the neck, falling onto the floor along with the body and then he quickly focused his attention on the next vampire so he could do the same to it.

[soonillbe.livejournal.com]

Ness picked Lyra's side that Yoite wasn't dealing with and leaped into the fray there, swinging the bat with all his strength and putting the first of what would no doubt be many vampires on the ground. He smashed its head as it lay on the ground for good measure, then moved on to the next, keeping an eye on Lyra and Yoite and their positions.

[lyingbrat.livejournal.com]

Lyra's eyes were glowing by now. She stretched out her hands- she could see the faces of her attackers, and she realized with chilling clarity- these monsters were people and they wanted her and her friends dead.

With Pantalaimon snarling, she sent one of the remaining vampires crashing into some of the others.

Toph was reaaaally late in getting back to the base; she'd been across town when the stuff started going down.

Her arrival was announced by several very large stone blocks simply rolling over some of the remaining attackers, and her shout of rage.

[erasemeplz.livejournal.com]

Yoite was quickly tearing up vampires on his side, sending body parts and blood everywhere, heads rolling and hearts tearing themselves out of the vampire bodies seemingly on their own, just in case simply taking their heads off wasn't enough.

He was feeling a bit of the fatigue from using Kira already, but nothing too bad, and as one got too close to him, he quickly swung around to kick it, sending it flying out of one of the windows.

[Sorry I'm late again...]

[digikaiser.livejournal.com]

A high pitched voice had called out from nearybe.

Sticky Web! Wormmon called out as he spun a large web of silk curling, wrapping up a number of the vampires.

Ken had been meditating in his former home behind the toyshop and like Toph was late to scene. He slowly gave a nod, smiling towards his teammates before his eyes lit up, a blue energy shining as he used his powers launching a few of the newly webbed up vampires into the air with great force.

derp derp not paying attention sorry guys

Ness was knocking vampires back as quickly as they appeared, putting as much strength behind his swings as he possibly could and doing extra damage to their heads whenever he had the chance. They were slowly starting to pile up as the damage he had done them healed, but Ness kept swinging away, saving his most powerful attack for when the numbers became too overwhelming.

If he was good at anything, it was gauging the right moment for a show-stopping blow.

"Take off their heads or use silver!" Lyra shouted about the curses and death threats of the remaining vampires, telekinetically yanking the guns away from any that tried to use them.

She had also gotten rather spattered with blood from Yoite's attacks, although she didn't really notice as she sent more shards of broken glass into the attackers faces.

[tinybutdeadly]

Behind the vampires outside, a small blind kid was crushing as many of the vampires as she could.

"Lyra! Everyone! Are you okay in there?"
