"I'll message my folks with stuff to bring from home for me." Cain said.

"I don't think I'll need to head back there." he reasoned.

He then sighed, and shook his head.

"We'll survive this." he told her.

"I promise." he assured her further.

Meanwhile, Tyson sighed as he looked at the alert on his phone once more, and then looked around.

"Right." he said quietly.

"Hey, kid!" he called out.

"Lemme know when you're ready!" he went on.

"Someone'll be sent to take the stuff we want to our designated dorm!" he continued, before pausing.

"...minus the cat! We'll have to take the cat there ourselves!"

"I know!" the 'kid' he'd called to responded as she was standing in her room, looking it over.

"I... Think I got everything." She thought with a sigh. This wasn't a situation that anyone wanted to be in, but it wasn't something she was really going to worry about for thr moment. She couldn't. If she did, it would not be good at all.

"just need to grab my tech... And my cat. Yeh, I think I good." She muttered with a nod before making her way downstairs with her, rather hefty, suitcase.

"Just need my tech and my cat." She told ty once she got down there.

"Well, get your tech together." he replied, putting all his stuff with her suitcase. It was a little less than what she had, but it was still a decent amount.

"Someone'll show up and take all of it to the dorm, and we'll need to speed to the Unit." he went on.

"...." he was then silent, before shaking his head.

"...damn it." he cursed.

"I'm sorry, Miki." he apologised.

"This is a shit situation, to understate it massively." he said further.

"But we'll get through this. We have to." he added with a light chuckle, as they heard a soft mewling from the couch.

Miki just sighed.

"I know." She said before pausing, smirking lightly.

"I'm... not too surprised, to be honest." She added.

"But I'm less worried about you and me, and more worried about... well... what baout Ireland? Egypt? Aren't they the only places that are ok with mana and non-humans, and have a legal requirement to list on the ID if they are a mage or whatever?" She asked.

"If so, that's super easy pickings."

Ty crossed his arms over his chest, and thought for a moment.

"That is true." he said.

"...it depends on how their governments react to this." he told her.

"They might be havens and bastions... or it could be the worst thing to happen..." he went on.

"As I said, this is... well, this situation is unprecedented, even though it's history repeating itself." he continued.

"The question is... WHY..."

Miki just sighed.

"I have absolutely not idea why, and I really wish I knew." She commented.

"Now, want to help me try and wrangle Snowball?" She asked.

"Because you know she hates her carrier." As she spoke, she was off, making her way to the closet, whewre she knew the carrier was. Snowy, meanwhile, saw that, before bolting off to hide.

Ty narrowed his eyes when he saw the cat bolt off to hide.

"...damn it." he cursed.

"Well... I know that thing likes to hide..." he mumbled, trailing off a bit, and heading off.

When Miki came back with the carrier, she saw that neither Ty nor Snowball were there. However, she DID hear him call out to her.

"Miki!" he said.

"Seems like the cat's decided to bury itself deep in your closet! Like REALLY deep in there!"

Miki paused a moment.

"... I sweat that I closed that door." She muttered before sighing. She had a walkin closet, so it was very possible that there was a vent that the cat managed to get through.

"Dammit." she muttered.

"On my way!" She called before heading off to where she knew that the cat could have gone from. She grabbed some leftover turkey that was in the firdge as she went. It didn't take long before she reached the room nex to where Ty was and set the carrier at the entrance to the vent, with some turkey in there.
She hoped that'd tempt the feline to go in.

At first, it seemed like it wasn't working. It was actually about 4 minutes before the feline came sniffing around.

The cat continued to sniff the turkey, getting closer and closer to the carrier, before looking around.

Whatever the reason, the little fluffball slowly crawled into the carrier, and started to eat the turkey.

Ty, meanwhile, was just looking at his watch.

"Hm." he mumbled.

"...what should we do about...?" he muttered to himself, thinking about something intently.

Miki just chuckled lightly as she zipped the carrier up, trapping the small feline inside.

"Got 'er!" She called as she got to her feet, carefully lifting the carrier and hanging it by the shoulders trap.

"Never fails." She muttered before heading to her room, where Ty was.

"Turkey never fails." She told him simply as she poked her head in.

Ty looked over towards her, and smirked.

"Good." he said.

"Now, gather your tech." he told her.

"Anything else you want to grab." he continued.

"...also, our vehicles." he mentioned.

"Do you want to take YOUR car to the Unit?" he asked. "While MY motorcycle is transported there?" he asked further.

"Because that bike is NOT meant for a cat in a carrier, and I don't know if we can risk public transportation right now."

"I'll drive." Miki answered.

"If you want to take your bike yourself, feel free. I can get myself there with little difficulty, and you know it." She added.

"If you want to just ride with me, that's cool too." She said before sighing.

"Because I am not letting you take Snowy on that death trap."

Tyson just sighed heavily.

"I know." he said.

"I'm just saying that splitting up would not be good." he told her.

"If you don't want me in the car, just tell me." he went on.

"I'm merely stating that I think the two of us taking your car to the Unit is the best and safest solution, with my bike being transported there." he continued.

"Now, is there anything else you need or want to grab?" he asked.

Miki nodded.

"That is completely fair. I just wasn't sure." She assured him.

"As for anything else, yeah. My tech stuff. you know, laptop, tablet, etc." She then said before heading off to do so. She paused at the stairs though.

"While I'm doing that, mind packing up some of the food that'll expire? That leftover turkey from last night, for example." She asked. "Better to take it than to let it rot. Who knows how long we're going to be gone."

Ty nodded.

"Gotcha." he said.

"I'll tell Hal to send the person to transport our stuff to show up in 5 minutes." he told her.

"That should give us enough time to grab the food and your tech." he went on.

"Or do you need longer?" he asked.

"Just because time IS a luxury right now." he reasoned.

"Not at all." She said.

"All good." She added before sighing.

". . . really don't want to deal with this shit." She admitted with a sigh, "but can't say I'm entirely unused to it. ... I used to live basically in this kind of world."

Ty was silent for a moment, before sighing.

"Right." he said.

"Anyway, let's do this." he told her.

With that, they parted ways, and 5 minutes later, they had everything all together, and were standing and waiting for someone to arrive... when just then, someone did. They teleported right in front of them, and were wearing the standard colours for the retrieval squad.

"Is this everything?" they asked.

"The motorcycle in the garage as well." Ty told him. "Just take it to the underground parking garage." he said further.

"Can do." the person responded.

"We'll be driving to the Unit in her car." Ty then said, gesturing to Miki.

The person nodded, before handing them each a plastic card, with a green dot on it.

"Show those to security to be let in right away." he told them. "It shows that your things have been delivered to the Unit, and you are to be let in immediately." he went on.

"You'll need to get your card keys for your dorm from Agent Sharp." he added.

Miki nodded.

"That makes sense." She said before sighing lightly. After they were gone, transporting everything to the Unit.

"You good to go?" She asked. When Ty noded, they headed off, making sure to lock the door.

As they climbed into the car, she sighed and started it up.

"At least you can't die easily - if at all. Fuck, can you die?" She asked as they pulled out of the drive.

"I don't know." he said.

"I mean... well, define 'die'." he then told her.

"I've been killed a lot." he went on. "I've seen the reaper plenty of timed." he continued.

"However, I've yet to discover a way to keep me dead." he shrugged.

"And believe me, there was a period in my life where I was trying." he then said.

"Daily."

Miki just sighed lighlty.

"Not sure if that's going to be a good thing, or a bad thing, with the current state of the world." She commented.

"You think Lunet's the same? Considering the pit was an incomplete or something, one."
