It only took Bad-eye a second to decide, before he stooped down, lifting the card up, to make sure it didn't get lost in the snow, carefully re-holstering his rifle in his black-leather jacket. He examined the card for a half-second, before turning back to the man who seemed to think himself to be a commander.
He took a moment, glaring at the man before waving an arm, and snarling, "What the heck is that, man? Who do you think you are to get off acting like that! I am the only operative in my squad to stay after more than three missions, and one of the best shots in this organization!"
He bared his teeth in a way that showed, if his words had not already, just how displeased he was with the man. His eyes were narrowed, and his hands clenched in fists. He didn't know the man here, but apparently, he was military. Whether or not he was on this mission was a completely different question, and he'd already proved himself a threat to the mission.

Katie didn't dare look at her cell phone until she was safely inside in the crowd of Christmas shoppers. She grabbed a few outfits and hid in a dressing room.. When she closed the door she scrambled to read the text that Scotty left her. They spotted me and cornered me.. But I got out with the scapegoat riddle card. At mall.. Lots of crowds shopping here also WARM. Text when we should meet up and where. Be Careful!-meow- Whenever she posted -meow it meant she wouldn't text for a while, or she would wait for his text.. She tried on a fuzzy winter coat that matched her ears and tail.. This one should work.. She went to the teller and paid for it and wore it out. She poked a hole in the back of it and wrapped her tail and made it look as though it were a belt on the coat. "Much better.." she said.

Czar/Skull candy cashier
"Heh... Thanks for the discount, but seriously... you don't have to do that, I have enough money to pay for these full." Czar looked through his purchase to make sure he has five pairs of mixed white and black skull pants, five pairs of buttoned shirts in different colors, and different symbols, two hoodies; black and green, a pair of shoes which his parents could modify it later, and a red wristband with a skull on it.
"No worries Czar, after all you're our regular and most valued customer after all. Okay, the total come to three hundred even. Now with your fifty percent discount that comes to... one-fifty even." The cashier said to Czar. Pulling out his wallet. Czar opened the wallet and pulled out a hundred fifty and gave it to the cashier. "Also give me your punch card, so I can cut out a few points." Pulling out his almost punched out punch card from his wallet. He saw the cashier punching holes out of it until the card had no holes to punch, then he got out a golden punch card and only punched two holes. "Hey, Czar congrats, you're now a golden skull!" The cashier congratulated him. "Sweet, what's the benefits?" Czar asked him
"Golden skulls get a instant twenty-five percent discount on store bought items. (This will be important later on.) and you also get these." the cashier went under the desk and brought out black cordless head-phones. For style and music with out the hassle of untangling cords but It only works with skull music products." The cashier gave him the head phones as Czar began to put them on. "It suits you pretty well Czar, you heading out now?" The cashier asked him.
"Yeah, I have to leave before night fall so I can go home with out the hassle of buying a solar battery. " Then holding his bag of newly bought clothing Czar saluted the cashier before leaving. "See ya later Czar, and come again, the skull welcomes you anytime!" the cashier yelled out before Czar left the store.
"Well... time to go home." Czar began to walk to the exit when he passed by Katie, then he felt an awkward feeling as he passed by her. Turning back at the girl he could see a fur belt that reaches around her waist and to an end from back of the coat. Woah... who was she, and... what's with that belt? I want one of those! um... ok better follow her but slowly. But just in case. Czar crouched down and set the intensity of his shoes to medium as he slowly pursue the half-breed in hiding; that's what he didn't think.

Maguda snarled and slowly reached down to the barrel of Bad-Eye's gun with his left hand, took it in his metal-shod fingers, and squeezed. The sound of splintering metal was the only audible noise in the alley for several seconds. "I really don't give a damn, sniper. I gave you a direct order and you attempted to disobey. You do that again and you'll be off this squad and off this mission, you understand me? I f*cking out-rank the men who gave you that order, even if they pretend otherwise. I give you an order, soldier, then you obey it." He leaned in to within an inch of Bad-Eye's face. "Understood?"
He let go of Bad-Eye's ruined sniper rifle and took the card out of his hand, looking at it. "Interesting..." He flipped it up in the air and started walking towards the mall. "A riddler..."

Bad-eye's eye twitched as the man ruined his rifle. Slowly, he turned, looking at the man over his shoulder, speaking in a voice that made it clear that the man was still not his leader, "You have become a threat to this mission. With the damage to my weapon, I cannot stop you currently. Be glad you were smart enough to do that much."
He turned away, walking out in the opposite direction, lips curled in a snarl. His thoughts were a swirl, but he had the what was necessary, just as much as the 'Commander' did, and so he was going to do what he saw as necessary. Find the targets before the man did.
The blond-haired man turned the corner, before sprinting off, moving as fast as he could around the building, his mind a blur as quick as his body. "Target: Kat, found. Current clue of location: Hard to decipher. Working on it. Mr. Maguda has proved to be threat to mission. Get new gun. Kill Maguda," The words were spoken so quietly into his recorder that they were impossible to understand if anyone was farther than an inch from his face. He clicked off the recorder and stashed it in his pocket, unsure where he should go, still trying to understand the card.

Katie felt as though someone was watching and following her.. She turned to get a look, looking as though she were looking for another store.. She did this a few times as she walked around, noticing a guy around her age, though probably slightly younger than her following her.. I seem to be popular today.. She thought as she sighed. She decided that if she left and he continued to follow her it would cause issues later.. She decided to go into the Hot Topic and browse a bit, seeing if the guy would follow her in..

"Hey nimrod, you're supposedly high notch military. Don't you have any sort of hacking abilities? If you don't, I demand you go get some for someone who does have! That is an order!" he barked into his phone. He then ended the called, still pursuing 'Scotty.'
He then took his phone out again, and this time he called Bad-eye to see how he's doing. This time, he got an answer. "Hey Bad-eye, what's going on in your area? He asked, still a little fuming from his phone call with Graham, and a little chilly under his hoodie.

Scotty picked up the pace of his walking as he had noticed the guy following him. He walked into a big crowd, crouching down to make himself harder to see. He pulled his phone out and saw her text. 'Headin ur way.Tryin 2 ditch followers.Meet n foodcourt.' He sent back. He only texted with such horrible grammar when driving or in a hurry.
He walked out of the crowd and quickly ran into an alleyway. As he ran, he came to a choice. Turn, or be stuck at a dead end. Thinking it was obvious that he would turn, he hopped the fence of the dead end and took off in a full sprint in the way opposite of the turn. He took his phone out of his pocket, removed the battery, and chucked it down another alleyway. It was only a cheap TracPhone and the guys might be tracking it. He kept running and dropped the battery of the phone into a trash can.
He was getting nearer to the mall and he slowed down to a light jog.

Maguda walked towards the mall, entering at a casual pace and pointedly ignoring the stares people invariably directed at his left arm and chest. He saw the little cat-girl enter a store called Hot Topic... "Eh... Why not?" He walked inside and, walking through the store on what to any casual observer would seem to be a random path, ended up right next to the girl. So quietly only someon with much better-than-normal hearing could possibly pick it up, he said, "There's two ways this can go, little miss. The first is that you come with me, surrendering yourself into the custody of the United States Military. As the leader of our mission I'll have custody of you. The other way is that I press this little lapel on my jacket and tell my partners exactly where you are. They want to kill you, or at least harm you in several extremely uncomfortable ways. I'm currently the best chance you have to get out of this situation alive. You have no chance of escaping all three of us." He glanced over at what she was looking at, then turned back to his 'potential purchase.' "If you try to ignore both of those options, however, you will then be a fugitive from the government, and I'll be legally required to kill you."

Czar
Chasing her but stopping at the side of the store, Czar Began to examine the people inside the store. Looking at the strange man, Czar began to freak out: Wuah! What the hell is he?! He doesn't look human! Oh just forget it, she needs my help! looking around for anything round (and preferably hard) Czar found a sports store there he bought a few soccer balls and he perched them just right outside the store, Ok time to do this. I'll adjust the intensity to medium high, set the curve to medium and the wind shear to low. Czar adjusted the knobs of his shoes to do so. Right... "Shades, activate, switch to radar." then his glasses begin to form a radar on the lens; aiming for the military man. Hope this works! Then with some momentum Czar kicked the Soccer ball. For a split second as the shoe collided with the ball, the ball glowed a blue aura and when the ball began to fly, the ball rocketed into the store.

((OK, Maguda was talking too quietly for anyone other than Kat to hear him, but I'll let that slide.))
Maguda heard a noise as something came towards him and turned towards it just in time to be hit on the right side of his face by a soccer ball traveling very, very fast. He froze for a second or two, the ball stuck to his face by the sheer velocity of the impact. Then, very slowly, it fell off, leaving a red mark on his face. "Ow." He reached up and rubbed his face, passaging some blood back into his cheek before spitting out a tooth. "Think on your answer, little princess. I'll be back once I get my hands on the a**-hole who did that." He walked calmly out of the store, looking around. No-one very conspicuous, unless you counted every person there, but that was just normal. He'd have to ask around a bit.

Katie stood still feeling worried that the guy who had exposed her was standing in front of her, thinking of what to do she smiled slightly nervously thinking of a way to buy time.. She ducked just as she heard the crashing of the store's glass.. A distraction..! she used the distraction to run off and hid in the crowd.. As she ran she glanced to see who her distracter was.. It's that guy that was following me.. I wonder.. She then headed to the food court putting her hood on and sitting next to a family that had the same hair color as her.. "Excuse me but can I sit with your family, I'm trying to hide from my stepdad, he's a crazy military guy who drinks way too much.. My mom and I are on the run from him but he somehow found me...My brother is on the way to pick me up but it might take a little bit and I don't want to cause a scene.." She said trying to strike a chord with them, the mother of the 3 kids looked at her and said "Oh deary go right ahead..! You can hide with us for a little while, My ex husband was a military man... I know how crazy they can get." Katie thanked her and pretended to eat dinner with them as though they were truly a family. Now all I gotta do is wait and watch for Scotty.. I'm sure he discarded his phone.. He does that everytime he types like that.. She stuck her phone in a plant next to her after she took the battery and the memory card from it..

Maguda looked around and spotted a kid close to a bag filled with soccer balls, trying like Hell to look nonchalant. He walked over to the banister and leaned on it, looking down to the floor below them. He said, without moving o indicating in any way that he was speaking, "You wouldn't happen to know who just kicked a soccer ball through half-inch-thick glass and hit me in the face with pinpoint precision, would you, son? I was merely talking with an old friend when I heard a sound, turned around, and got hit in the face." His left hand tapped the bannister, leaving dents in the fake wood. "I really hate it when people do that. They're so inconsiderate that when I find them I have to teach them a lesson in manners." He smiled and tapped the banister one last time, driving his left index finger through the rigid plastic. He smiled and walked off, marking the kid for a visit later. He walked around for maybe five minutes, looking into the stores for the girl, and finally came to the food court. He was considering the wisdom of searching for her in such a crowded area when his stomach gave its two cents worth. Very loudly. "Ah, what the Hell, I'll just get a pizza." A few minutes later he was sitting at the only unoccupied table eating a triple-anchovy and garlic pizza with extra olives, his favorite kind, sandwiched between a drooling old lady who was nursing a tea and a lady with four kids on the other side.
