The lady tilted her head at such an angle that she looked several years younger. "Arrested? Sho? I don't know what you are talking about. I'm looking for Kuroto, but why would he be arrested and who's Sho?" Shaking her head, she bowed. "Whatever, it's been too long. Please, can you give me instructions to this warehouse?"

Sho's attention was purely on the older version of Seth, completely oblivious to Dahlia and Randome's little scene. Mr. Kirson put a firm, fatherly-like hand on Randome. "Would you please get off this nice young lady, sir? It's not nice to restrain a girl when she doesn't want to be," he stated flatly and as politely as he could. The father's attention just barely wavered enough to notice Sho's stare. "Yes, sir? Do you have a problem?" He was tired and not in the mood to fight his own son's battles unless need be. Sho shook his head.
"I'm just surprised. I had never thought to meet Seth's father. How did you manage to get involved in my pit of troubles? Did Seth drag you in?" the captured one asked, finding the thought illogical, but unable to find anything else. Kirson shrugged.
"Actually I think this girl and her brother are to blame, but I'm too lost to really tell." He returned to Randome again, steady eyes on the back of Randome.

'Derek' stopped in the middle of the road where a decent sized army of teens were heading. One teen stupidly stepped forward. "Hey, move it police scum!" the foolish underling growled.
"No time for that," 'Derek' responded. "You'll be punished for challenging me later." She pulled off the wig and hat at the same time, allowing her long hair to fall once more. Placing sunglasses over her eyes again, she turned to Kura. "I'm to tell you to avoid approaching the warehouse. Sho and that cop were talking about a bomb or something. I can't give the exact details, but I know I was told to stop you guys for your own safety. I can't guarantee anything for the other two who entered."
"Other two?" Seth asked, pulling on one bang.
"Yeah, one of Sho's allies, a girl, and some old man. The purple haired girl, by the way," Di replied. Seth thought for a moment and then let go of the hair.
"Dahlia and Dad!" he gasped, running ahead again without hesitation. Kura moaned and waved his arm back.
"Di, you stay with these guys, I'll get Seth back!" He ran on ahead, after Seth.
Yay for record! *applauds* Unfortunately, I can't claim the same thing since I had to go think my post over but... *shrugs* Oh well.
Heather, did you want a hand picture like this? :

Iris nodded. "Yeah, it's down the street. Go straight, take the first left and then the third right. If you see gunshots or lots of people with weapons, or even an angry mob, you're in the right place. Oh! Or a cat named Canth with a guy with a cowlick in tow. All of those will mean you're in the right place." He was walking in the general direction of the warehouse, even though he had no idea what he was going to do once he got there.

Randome released Dahlia casually, an innocent look spreading over his face. "What? I was just hugging her. No need to give me the third degree." He turned his attention to Kura and Seth as the two ran up. "Only three of you then?" He questioned, then shrugged lightly, taking on the tone of a victim. "I guess that'll have to do."
His hand delved into the pocket of his uniform, fingers searching for the detonator button. Maui leapt forward to stop him, only to have a cloaked figure come jumping down from the catwalk overhead, landing on top of Randome with enough force to knock him to the ground. The cloaked figure quickly yanked Randome's hands behind his back, removing the detonator and tossing the handheld object to Maui. "Go find the bomb. Disconnect the blue wire for this kind. And don't be all day about it. Certain people need to go to jail and I'm not talking about the one who's handcuffed to the pole." Maui nodded and ran into the back of the warehouse. The cloaked figure continued to tie up Randome, addressing requests and suggestions as he did so. "Dahlia, please shut and guard the door until some men in black show up, they're with me. Kura, don't bother trying to get to your army, they're being taken care of. Hmm... was there anything else..."
Randome smirked. "At least this was entertaining. Even if it didn't work. I'll have to remember this disguise, it earns people's trust easier." He caught Dahlia's eye. "You even thought I liked you didn't you?" The girl didn't say anything. She turned to open the door and let in three men dressed in black who went directly to Kura, clamping hands on his arms. One approached Seth and the cloaked figure shook his head. "No, not that one or his father. Just the redhead."
"Got it."
Dahlia had slipped out the door when the men came in, her face flushed. /Moron./ Her body was screaming that it wanted coffee to steady her mind and hands, not to mention the fact she felt used and stupid. She wasn't needed back there anyway so the girl started walking off towards a coffeeshop. Some people needed alcohol, Dahlia needed coffee.
