A black airplane landed on the Tokyo airport. The airplane landed, coasting to the tarmac. Six Britannian sutherlands were waiting, along with two dozen fully armed and armored Irkalla Sentinels, their clothes and armor being black with the Irkalla logo on their left breast and bicep. The airplane's hatch opened, deploying a ladder. Out of the ladder came two more Sentinels dressed in white, meaning they were part of the Elite Forces. The Sentinels in black clicked their heels together, each placing their right fist over their sternum in an almost Romanic salute.
Out of the plane came a black parasol with laced edges, unraveling in the sun, and behind it, holding said parasol, was a tall woman wearing a long black dress with a slit on the right side of the skirt reaching up to her hip. The neck of the dress was decorated with an assortment of real crow feathers. The woman had long white hair, a smirk on her face, and sunglasses over her eyes. This was Aurora.
Three more Elite Sentinels came out behind her, their masked faces looking about.
A representative of Britannia awaited at the end of the procession of Sentinels clad in black. He looked a bit anxious as two Elite stood by him. Aurora made her way to the man, offering her pale albino hand, "Mr. Jeremiah, I presume?"
The man reached for Aurora's hand, gently holding Aurora's hand and giving it a gentle kiss on the knuckle, "Yes. It is a pleasure to meet you, Miss Gallows."
"Mmm-hmm... so are we done here?" she asked a bit impatiently.
"Oh-I-um.." Jeremiah cleared his throat, "The Holy Empire of Britannia would like to welcome you to Area 11. I was ordered to notify you that-"
Aurora interrupted him, "There have been a bombing here in the Tokyo Settlement, war is going on, jadda-jadda, right?"
Jeremiah blinked twice. Aurora giggled, patting his cheek in a condesending way, "I appreciate the warning, Mr. Jeremiah, but I'm a big girl. I can take care of myself."
With that Aurora moved away towards a black limousine, climbing into the back. Two Elites climbed on the front. The rest of the Sentinels got into several black trucks. The group began to drive off in a caravan.
Aurora sat in her limousine, legs crossed, sighing softly. For someone like her jet-lag meant nothing. She looked out the window the whole time, until reaching the new Irkalla Corp building in the Tokyo Settlement. Aurora made her way into the building with her Elites.
Irkalla had oficially arrived in Tokyo, and with it, the ghost company Aegis will open business to the black market.

Aleksei was in an Apartment nearby with 8 of his men when his phone rang. "This better be important" Aleksei said in English with a slight Russian Accent
"Some woman just arrived in Tokyo International Airport she looked rich had a bunch of guards with her" A Man said on the other end of the line
Aleksei sat in a Red Leather Arm chair and crossed his legs as he spoke "Oh really? We'll have to look into this keep me updated understand?" Aleksei said closing his phone and standing up and looking at a newspaper clipping on the wall with a picture of Aurora on it
CO Of Irkalla Corp to Arrive in Tokyo
The CO of Irkalla Corp Aurora Gallows is to arrive in Tokyo on a set time and date to open the new Irkalla Corp Building in Tokyo
Aleksei smiled "This should be interesting" Aleksei said

Aurora had made it to her office, which of course, was enormous in size, with what could be described as a small garden of eden. She sat down on her desk chair, taking off her sunglasses, "Filthy country..." she muttered, turning her chair to look out the large window behind her desk. Said window was lined with transparent aluminum, which could withstand 50mm bullets in case anyone tried to kill her. It was also equipped with a blast shield system that closed if a window cracked, or at will through a button on Aurora's desk.
Aurora lazily stared out the window. An Elite Officer came into the room, saluting, "The facility is secured. Is there anything else you require, Ma'am?"
Aurora turned her chair to face the officer, smiling softly at him, "Good work, Officer Levan. I don't need anything at the moment. Maintain security in high alert. I don't trust this place. I expect at least one attempt against my life or this facility in the next week."
"We keep a tight ship, ma'am. Nothing and no one will get through our security." Levan said with a firm nod.
Aurora raised a thin brow at him. Levan cleared his throat, which sounded funny through the muffling effect of his mask, "I'm sorry, ma'am. I will not allow my pride to blind me. You have my word, this facility will be safe at all cost." he corrected.
Aurora smiled and nodded, "That's more like it." she chuckled, "Dismissed."
Officer Levan saluted again. He did an about-face and left the office.

Aleksei's phone rang again disturbing the silence of the apartment Aleksei was alone now in the apartment "Whats the status on our new guest in Area 11" Aleksei said smirking
"She went to the New Irkalla building i'm not sure but I think she's the CEO of the company" The man on the other end of the line said
Aleksei frowned "I don't want to hear I'm not sure. I want to know is it her or not?" Aleksei hissed impatiently
"M-Mr. Makarov there is no way we can confirm her identity" The man said nervously
Aleksei sighed "Excuses!! I hope your correct or I'll find you and make you pay for your mistake" Aleksei said hanging up and dialing another number
"Viktor we have a target gather the others we have planning to do" Aleksei said hanging up before the other man had a chance to respond

Aurora kicked her shoes off and raised her feet up on the desk, taking a file out of a stack sitting on her desk, begining to read it's contents while petting Nergal, her gray sphinx cat, which sat on her lap purring. The files were intel reports on high-risk subjects, mixed in with files on potential clients. These files contained information most governments couldn't acquire... intel gathered by her spies, corporate surveillance, satellite imaging division, and well... too many sources to list.
"Aleksei Makarov..." she read out loud, reading through the file with pink eyes. The name was not alien to her. Countless news reports of the well-known terrorist leader. The file spoke of a possibility of this man being in Area 11. Aurora chuckled softly, looking at the pictures in the file. She raised her brows, "Hmm... well, he's surely a looker..." she purred, "too bad I don't deal with terrorists." she chuckled softly, reading through the extensive list of reported attacks by his organization.
"Such a busy young man..." she said unamused.
Aurora closed the file, stacking it with the rest of the read files, taking the next file in the unread pile. Joseph Gauron Totschläger... another name she knew. Her scouts had reported seeing this well-known mass-murdering mercenary in Area 11. Intel spoke of rumors of Gauron currently working for China, "Wonder how long that'll last..." she thought out loud.
Aurora picked the phone off the desk with her toes, bringing it up to her hand and dialing a number.
"Cleo? Yes... add Gauron to the list of allowed customers for Aegis... mm-hmm, that's the one.... put him in the custom's list, he changes nations quite often.... ok, thank you sweetie. Keep up the good work."
Aurora ended the call with the press of a button. She chuckled softly looking over Gauron's file.
Cleo was the hidden face of Aegis. The manager of this ghost corporation that sold weaponry to an exclusive list of nations and privateers such as Gauron.
Needless to say, Aurora's phone is a very secure line... no one taps into her phone without she knowing about it.

Aleksei stood around a table with a large amount of weapons on it with 8 other men "So Resnov what do we have to work with today" Aleksei said looking across the table at a man with a long grey beard
"You will like what I have with me today Comrade Makarov the best on the Black Market" Resnov said. Resnov had supplied Aleksei's group for years he had served 10 years in the Russian Ultranationalist party and had lost an arm over it
Aleksei picked up a 50 Caliber Round "Whats so special about this it looks like a normal 50 Caliber bullet" Aleksei asked
"Ah that is special it is meant specifically for destroying Knightmare Frames even Frames carrying the new Blaze Luminous field" Resnov said smiling
"Can it pierce 30 Feet of Bullet Proof Glass?" Aleksei said inspecting the round
"Easily like a hot knife through butter" Resnov said nodding
Aleksei nodded "we need it in smaller form our informant told me that these guards are wearing heavy armor" Aleksei said
"The smallest we have of this is 7.62 ammunition for AK-47s" Resnov said
Aleksei nodded "Good that will do nicely" Aleksei said
Aleksei looked at the other men at the table "I will not lie some of you will die but that doesn't matter because if you do not do as I say you will die anyway am i understood" Aleksei said smirking
"Yes comrade Makarov we understand" The men said
Aleksei turned to Resnov "Resnov how much C4 Explosives do you have" Aleksei asked
"Enough to level moscow" Resnov said proudly
"Good we'll need a distraction I want it all loaded into one of our vans the Tokyo settlement is one of the most crowded places espcially now that the new Irkalla Corp Building is open so we can disguise ourselves in the crowd. we'll be ghosts as far as the guards are concerned in the crowd" Aleksei said
"Surely your not suggesting a frontal attack" One of the men said
"That is the one thing many people do not expect it is reckless they expect better planning from us like a strike from the back or above or even below but they do not expect a strike from the front" Aleksei said
"As time changes so do the thoughts of people before a frontal strike would be obvious now they are rare it is all about suprise" Resnov said nodding in agreement
Aleksei nodded "Exactly what was once obvious is now a suprise" Aleksei said

The biggest mall in the eastern world blown up just a few weeks ago. Right here in Area 11. Aurora had heard about it in the news, and her informants had mentioned plenty about it. They had suggested she didn't come to Tokyo. She had passed the rubble on the way to her building. Nothing was left... over 2,000 dead. The Britannian government suspected the Black Knights, though facts were a bit shady. And this was just one of numerous terrorists attacks in the last few months.
Aurora put the last file down, switching the blast shields down. She was tired of the sunlight.
Aurora looked up at the numerous holographic screens displaying the billions of cameras all over the facility. There wasn't a single blind spot. Aurora was treating Tokyo the same way she would treat any third-world country. She expected anything from anywhere, and she was expecting something. She would be disappointed if no one tried to attack her company. Some people just didn't understand the power she had at her disposal... and she just loved to remind the world of what Irkalla was capable of, specially now that she was planning a privateering service.
The Irkalla building looked like a normal marvel of beautiful architecture. Having a plaza on the front. The nearest buildings were 50 meters away. Little did the public know that the building was really a fortress, much like any other Irkalla building out there. Equipped with more cameras than any government facility, the Irkalla building had complete omnidirectional recording equipment over every centimeter outside and inside the facility. Built out of special alloys, the building's frame was virtually indestructible, design with an intricate multi-cell system that made it have no structural weaknesses whatsoever. The building could easily withstand a direct blast of a hadron cannon with minimal damage.
It's ventilation system was an intricate maze of purifiers and scanners, capable of detecting and shutting down sections of itself in case of a biological or chemical attack. Entering the system would be impossible without detection and action taken. The lobby stood connected yet outside of the main structure. The lobby could easily be destroyed with no access or damage to the main structure. Sentry turrets were hidden everywhere, from the plaza to the hallways. These turrets would pop out in case of an emergency and open fire on any intruder. To top it all off the place was crawling with Sentinels, bearing Irkalla's special microfiber armor, which allowed a flexible surface with absolute stopping power. Golem Sentinels bared a heavier, bulkier armor known as 'azoth', which was, to this day, proven virtually impenetrable to anything but repeated blasts of energy weapons. Golems fallen in battle usually died of blunt-force trauma caused by explosions, or crushed by knightmares or other heavy vehicles/rubble... but that had only happened a handful of times.
To top it all off, the Britannian government had full intention of defending Irkalla. The company had given Britannia a great deal of products that had moved the nation forward into this new century. Revolutionary new medicines and civilian-grade technologies that the public treasured and, in a way, needed. Aurora was an international VIP. It would be a true show of weakness if Britannia allowed anything to happen to her.

8 men approached the crowded plaza around the New Irkalla building in a Black Van
"Park in the underground garage of the building nearby if we're too close we'll be to obvious" the man in the front seat said loading a AK-47 Magazine with 7.62 rounds
"Is our distraction ready?" One of the men asked
An Explosion roared through the plaza followed by screaming from the civilians
"thats the signal lets go!" One of the men said opening the back doors to the Van and running out toward the plaza
the other men followed armed with AK-47s
"Use the crowd as cover!!" One of the men yelled as they scattered into the crowd pushing toward the towering Irkalla Corp Building other groups were doing the same in diffrent parts of the plaza

As the explosion roared outside Aurora let out a half chuckle, smirking, "Record time..."
The sentry turrets popped out of tiles in the plaza, bearing 50 caliber armor-piercing gatling guns, already spinning and mowing down everyone in the plaza in a matter of seconds. The main building was sealed shut in a fraction of a second, with blast doors sliding down in a roaring thunder and a blaring alarm sounding off. Sentry turrets popped out in the lobby, which as stated before, is a separate structure from the main building. These sentry turrets bared vulcan cannons and mortar launchers, and they immediately started raining mortar fire on the plaza.
All turrets are equipped with Irkalla's REAVER AI, which uses x-ray to lock on to weapons and explosives, concentrating fire on people and vehicles carrying them. They do not care if a civilian is in the way... and their rounds will easily destroy a whole crowd in seconds. The plaza offered little to no cover whatsoever.... a design made on purpose for such an incident.
"Continue protocol." Aurora stated through the closed channel to the Sentinels, who were all getting ready inside the now fully sealed structure. She was watching the slaughter outside through holographic screens. The terrorists stood little to no chance against the sheer power of the sentry turrets.

Aleksei smiled watching from small cameras built into some of the AK-47's his men were using "Well done Ms Gallows" Aleksei muttered to himself opening his phone and dialed a number
"Y-Yes Mr Makarov?" A voice said on the other end of the line
"Congrats my friend you live another day" Aleksei said hanging up before the man could respond
One of the dead Terrorists in the plaza was carrying a Cell Phone
"Now lets see if you find it Ms Gallows" Aleksei thought as he looked through the monitors at the sentry turrets that had just massacred 57 of the hired guns he was going to pay
"Truly magnificent I would have never expected such a thing from a civilian organization but of course I am not dealing with a normal Civilian organization" Aleksei said to himself resting his chin against his fist
Aleksei picked up his phone again and dialed a new number
"Resnov here" Resnov said over the phone
"Resnov tell me do you have something that can disable sensors?" Aleksei asked
"Chaff or EMPs" Resnov said
"Both" Aleksei said

The sentry turrets remained out and vigilant, seeking something to lock into, utilizing their REAVER system to scan neighboring buildings. Aurora viewed the carnage through her holo screens.
"Golem Svekrovich, assemble your team and search the bodies before the Britannian forces show up." Aurora commanded.
"Yes, Ma'am!" a man with a thick russian accent replied.
Svekrovich was a Golem, having the azoth armor. His team consisted of five other Golems and ten regular Sentinels with black microfiber armor. They exited through two vault system exits, making it out to the massacre. Their masks' vision showed a highlight of the men who had been carrying weapons. The REAVER AI had marked them for the Sentinels. The sentry turrets changed their scanning system to defend the forces coming out.
Svekrovich's team began searching the bodies. It would be a matter of time before they found the cellphone. Their helmets also took pictures of ID's and the men's faces... or what was left of most of them. They also took a few rounds from the clips and scanned weapons for serial codes. She'd find where these men came from, who they were, who their families were, and even who supplied these ridiculously primitive weapons... and the rounds they carried.

Aleksei watched with interest "Not yet Ms Gallows I'm saving the best for last" Aleksei said watching the men collect rounds from the magazines the men were carrying
"this was a test and you truly seem to appreciate the life you've been given to the point that you are willing to kill anyone who may threaten it" Aleksei said to nobody inparticular
"An interesting person if I must say so" Aleksei said
Aleksei's phone rang again "What is it?" Aleksei asked after he picked it up
"Comrade Makarov Resnov just showed us the video of what happened to the men you sent to Irkalla" His Second in command Viktor said
Aleksei frowned "Yes and if you do not approve you will share they're fate am I understood Viktor?" Aleksei said
there was a brief silence
"Y-Yes comrade Makarov I was wrong to think such thoughts please forgive me" Viktor said hanging up
"Fear is such a powerful thing in the hands of someone who knows how to use it" Aleksei said walking over to a small TV in the kitchen
Todays News 57 armed gunmen assaulted the Plaza infront of the Irkalla Corps management building in Tokyo murdering hundreds of civilians crowded in the Plaza authorities have just been notified of the danger and are on their way to Irkalla Plaza
More Updates will be given on the situation as it progresses

The building remained in lockdown. Svekrovich and his team returned into the building through the vault system. The findings were immediately given to her personally by Svekrovich. The Golem removed his helmet, showing his scarred face, "AK-47s. Weapons over two centuries old. Easily bought in the surface, no-risk black market. Pathetic if you ask me... but these rounds..." Svekrovich held one of them up, "These are special armor-piercing rounds."
Svekrovich tossed the round at Aurora. She caught it and inspected it closely, "Mmm..." she trailed her fingers over it, "Quite interesting." she pressed a button on a keypad on the desk, "Send Dr. Roswell up."
It was just a few seconds before an older man wearing a labcoat walked into the room. Aurora tossed the round at him, "Learn all you can from these rounds, improve them ten fold, and begin production. I want them available to the Sentinels in two days." Aurora instructed.
Roswell inspected the round, "Consider it done." he stated, "Modified to fit our weapons will give these rounds three times their current firepower."
Svekrovich produced the memory chip of the cellphone they had found on the dead terrorist. It was handed to Aurora, "This was also found." Svekrovich stated.
Aurora smirked, taking the memory chip and inserting it in a small laptop. She pulled out all the data she could out of the chip, scanning for all recent phone calls.

Aleksei looked at one of the monitors it was monitoring the location and what the Cellphone was being used for
"Well it looks like Ms Gallows has found my present" Aleksei muttered picking up an old block like cellphone and dialing the number for the cellphone the dead terrorist had
The Cellphone he was using was too old to be traced back to the source and it was signed to a fake name and address and most likely he would get rid of the old thing when he finished with it
Aleksei knew better than to underestimate this woman she had resources that even he didn't have access to and also she was the woman responsible for taking out a Core unit of the Russian Mafia
An Icon of a phone appeared on the screen of Aurora's laptop
Caller: A.Makarov

Aurora chuckled, hitting a button, "Makarov! How pleasant to speak to you. I just so happen to have a file here on you. So you've decided to target my humble company? Tsk, tsk... what a silly endeavor from such a charming lunatic as yourself."
Her main computer beeped, showing a list of information on most of the men in the attack.
"Russian mob? I wonder how much money you offered them. I'm going to have to speak to some of their superiors about this. I thought I had bought them out by now." she looked up at Svekrovich, trailing her finger over her throat. Svekrovich chuckled.
"So are you fond of technology that is centuries old? Or could you simply not afford anything else? I must say I'm kind of insulted by how easy it was to dispose of your minions." she chuckled, "I do hope you set your sights on someone else, Makarov. Someone of your skills should truly be spending more time on governments and civilians. They can be bent to your will. Right now you're facing an unstoppable force... if I so desired, I could end you tomorrow."
