((Alrighty! Ths one's ready too. I need Raven and Orpheus to place themselves and then we'll be ready to go. :B
Oh and the hallway is the one above the offices, which would be just below Alan's office.. Or the big gapping hole where it was.
The elevator is out so they could be heading down to their office and had to get out on that floor?))

Raven walked down the hallway at a brisk pace, high-heels clicking against the floor as she made her way towards the staircase. It really was an inconvenience, but she certainly wasn't going to be stuck in her office all day. "Technology," she muttered in annoyance. "It never seems to work when it's needed, does it?"
Hurrying behind his mother was Anoki, with one hand pulling Myung-Ki to make sure he was coming, feet also clacking on the floor as he trotted after her. At least he didn't have to run to keep up anymore, that was a plus. The elevators not working was less fun, but at least it gave him some exercise, and for a change Raven was annoyed with someone other than him. All in all, the situation wasn't that bad.

Orpheus was heading for his office he had a few files that he had to pick up for some of his up and coming classes. They needed a quick once over so he knew how to set up for that particular student's needs and skill at had.
Behind him were Ligeia and Ter, he wasn't exactly sure why the two had come along. If he remembered correctly it was Ligeia saying something about wanting to go because he left something behind. And of course there was no way that Ter was going to let Ligeia go anywhere without him. Not out of undying affection or love but because he just couldn't let his brother do anything that could get him a step ahead of him in any way. The red head couldn't help but groan, it was sibling rivalry at its finest and it didn't have to make sense he supposed.
And bringing up the rear was Vorel and Baroness, she was all but running circles around the bigger dragon, hissing at him and genuinely making a nuisance of herself. Vorel though was much like his partner infinately patient so he just ignored her attempts to lure him into a fight which only made her that much more growly.
'Next time I am sneaking out.' Orpheus thought to himself idly, if only to leave the battles at home.

A familiar oarnge haired technician would then pop up from the stairway, freezing at the sight of the two with a sudden guilty look... but 013 was known for such looks, so it might not come as a suprise to them.
He swallowed, turning to look at a door, then back to them. "... Uh..." he fumbled, shoulders hunching just at the sight of Raven. He'd learned quickly she wasn't much for his egotistical ramblings, then she'd filed a complaint and gotten him in trouble! Geh. Stupid woman. He promptly frowned at her, slumping more. "You need.. You need to leave. Go back upstairs. I need this hallway... Just for a minute. SO.. so just go. Okay?" the sentance ended with a nervious giggle, and a glance around.

The day had been Very tedious for a certain naga, starting with a call that Alan was alive had not put a good start to anything. Luckally, they had been able to act quickly, how he lived was beyond the poor assassin... b*****d really should have died. Oh well. The little mole seemed to have gotten everythign set up just fine, security was down until someone could unscramble the code, which had given them enough time to get all the way up here.
However, now it was being cut short, drawing an end to the man's patience with the little redhaired spazzy twit. So with a light hiss in his throat, he stepped-Or slithered, forward, and into the hallway, holding up two pistols with a welcoming smile. To the two teachers, and the tech, they'd all see him as a normal human... Legs and all, though the magic teacher might get the sense of an Illusion if she tried. He was dressed normally, a beige shirt and illusion-jeans. "Sorry but, I'm rather tired of waiting. So... We're just going to go into that room there, and you're not going to try anything, got it?, good." He gave a wider grin, glacing to the children accompanying the adults. Goodie, more leverage, his eyes snapped back to the two adults, if anyone was going to try somethign he expected it to be one of them.

If you were to ask the snakes partner in crime if it was a good or bad day, there was no doubt you would receive a happy smile. Today was most certainly a good day. Any day he got to waltz around with the opportunity to shoot people was a good day. Death...was an occasion to...smile.
So, Colt did just that as he walked behind Vid, he smiled. Vid wasn't usually one to take charge...but then again, D-corp was his gig, Colt was just a long for the ride.
Only one weapon was held in his hand, call it cheesy, but it was his favorite gun. His first and only, in fact, he had even taken his name from his beloved Colt .45 gun. Originally the weapon was from older designs...it wasn't nearly as efficient as the guns Colt had forced on Vid this morning, but it was his baby, none could replace it.
Silently the red head nodded his approval at his partners words. With a jolt of his head towards said room Vid spoke of, he lifted his gun and pulled back the trigger. Didn't want anyone getting the wrong impression now.

It was like a domino effect, everything had been kicked into a strange balance of hit and miss, no sooner had the call been given to the techs that Vid and Colt had indeed poped up on the floor Alan had just left. The first tech happend to catch them leaving the stairway, giving him a second or two to call peri's phone back.
The tech then waited for a few more to rush up to his level, all of them spilling into the floor behind the two "terrorists" all pointing guns that gave a click to show they were loaded and ready to go. "Freeze!" one announced, "Put your weapons down."
Alan, meanwhile, had decided against protesting to wheel himself and let Nibal push him, and also ignoring Peri's ranting about how she should have been dead and whatnot. There were more important things at the moment. As they reached the stairway, he gave a mumble of thanks to Nibal. Children were wonderful, so pure hearted. Peri, not so much, but atleast there had been the door. He peered back to find Peri... Frowning alittle. "Maybe Nibal should stay here." he didn't want the boy getting caught like Talia had... Now he just had to wait for Peri to get him up the stairs.

Peri frowned at the thought of having to carry the man in the wheelchair up the stairs. He glanced over at his son, who did not look too happy about the idea of staying behind. "Nibal, go back to my office and stay in there until I return."
Nibal frowned and stomped his foot before stomping back down the hallway as his father continued to watch him.
Peri sighed and worked on getting his boss up the stairs. Finally, panting some, he set the chair's wheels down on the landing to the next floor. He'd just pause and catch his breath...
Nibal had made it down to his father's office before glancing back down the hallway. Both men had disappeared into the stairwell, so the boy ran down the hallway and carefully opened the door. He could hear something in the stairwell, so he just held the door open a crack to wait for his dad to go onto the floor before moving upstairs.

Before Raven even reached the stairway, a familiar technician poked his orange head out and barked some sort of gibberish at her. It sounded vaguely like an order, which did not sit well with the teacher as well. Such an incompetent was trying to boss her around? Well, she had a lot to say about that.
"I'm headed down," she replied firmly. "Not up. And I have no time to dilly-dally, especially at the request of someone who's lucky he isn't fired."
Anoki had started up the stairs, but when Raven spoke he quickly ran back down, brushing past one of the people coming by. It wasn't usually that crowded in the offices, at least not when Raven made him come along to help carry things. Strange.
"What are you saying?" Raven inquired of the newcomer. He seemed to have some sort of haze around his lower half that made her eyes itch, which she identified as an illusion. A good one, since no matter what she did she couldn't break it or even see beyond it. It made her wonder what someone in D-Corp would need such a well-wraught illusion for.
And then there was another tech next to them, and another, and several more after that, all of whom had guns cocked and aimed. Raven was starting to feel like she was being made a fool of, and tapped one heel against the floor impatiently. "What is the meaning of this?"
A bit more worried than his mother, Anoki trembled and put one hand on Myung-Ki's head. He recognized guns from having them pointed out to him as bad things. And there were an awful lot of bad things there.
Rearing on his hind legs, Myung-Ki leapt in front of Anoki, ready to do battle with everyone crowding the small corridor. He could take them, no problem!

It seemed as if things were happening to fast for him to process, to many things at once. There was first the tech telling people to keep on going, that he needed the hallway. Nothing that he really minded since he was only taking this route to get to his classroom. Then there were two others, people giving orders with the power of guns to back them up. They were told not to move but that didn't really seem to matter to the redhead. He moved, to place himself between his children and the two that were a danger to them. After all Ligeia and Ter both meant more to him then his own safety. He then turned a glare on the two, waiting to see what it was that they were going to do next.
"What the..." Ter watched the way that his father moved, recognizing only after a moment that it was a defensive thing. A hiss issued from the snake child's lips and at that Baroness turned her gaze to the two men that seemed to present danger, her tail started lashing in an angry sort of way. They were a challenge? Someone that she was supposed to fight with like with Ligeia and Vorel right? She barred her teeth, giving a low hiss.
Vorel shifted in place, his long glassy-scaled tail wrapping around Ligeia, one wing opening up to move in front of his partner protectively and he lowered his head, dragging in a deep breath preparing to release a cloud of his icy breath if needed. Not until he was told to though, not wanting to risk hitting Orpheus who stood between him and the threat....

Vid glanced to the woman who spoke first, "I spoke very clearly, I beleived..." He paused as hazel eyes caught a slipping glance. Why was she staring at his legs? Unless... he raised a brow at her, gears turning. "I was politely asking you all not to move, especially you." He gave a glance to Orpheus as he shifted, but the move was regestered as defencive. "Don't worry..." He gave a small smile "I'm not here for them. This time." He shrugged, keeping both guns ready.
And then... Oh really now... Vid gave a light chuckle to the techs that poured in beneith them, stating some bable "I think not." He replied simply, "You don't want anythign to happen to your teachers, and projects, now do you?" He lost his smirk then, finding himself mildly irritated with the whole issue. This was supposed to be a get in, get out, no guards... How'd they known he was here anyhoo? A suspicious glance was given to the tech that had lead them in, "Open the door, would you?" Ofcourse his eyes quickly returned to the group infront of him, specifically Raven. He wasn't sure what she was, but she wasn't a tech judging by her wardrobe, and the look she'd given to his lower half suggested she wasn't just any ol' person.

013 gave a light squeak as the two poped up behind him, well there went his career... Nono! not the end of it, the redhead quickly assured himself, Alan should die... Then the guys would leave, he'd take over, and vwala. No harm, no fowl...
Slumping slightly, he was suddenlly told to open the door... "y-yes. Right." He did so without hesitation, opening it to reveal an empty bed, life support systems remaining but no one hooked to them, lots of surgery equipment, but again.. No one.
His blood ran cold suddenlly, why wasn't Alan there?! He'd been there that morning! "A..ah... I don't..." he spun back to Vid and Colt, swallowing hard.

Patiently Colt waited for things to pick up. Vid had specifically told him, he shouldn't get his hopes up about this whole thing, there wasn't supposed to be alot of "action". Yet, the situation was currently getting rather tense...sending a slight buzz up and down the back of the red heads neck.
First things were first, however, the fun could come later, but Vid had to kill Alan....again. Seesh, how trite was it that the man just seemed to keep coming back to life. Or so it seemed he did, from what Vid had told him. A story almost a little to cliche and trite for Colt's taste. But lo and hold, a plot twist, that was even to extravagant for Colt's taste. Alan...wasn't where he was supposed to be.
Every so faintly, the smile on Colt's lips faltered as his face spazemed in a twitch. What was this? ...Colt was all for tricks and surprises, but he didn't reallyl like liars now, or sell outs.
...Then again, maybe it was the fact that the slimy red-headed b*****d was making Vid's job harder, which only took up more of the 'ever so little' time the two spent together outside of this job.
A curling sneer on his face, Colt twisted himself so that he was once again looking at the set of parents and children down the hall. --They would make a good distraction.
BANG! Number one of the three shots to come filled the air. The first, never meant to hit anyone, and was aimed at the ceiling farther down the hall, only meant to scare the group at the end. The Second, however was a shot that Colt turned around for and planted squarely in the head of the nearest tech. ....And number three? Why, it got another one of the multiple women and men D-corp had at their finger tips.
"Like fish in a barrel..." Colt couldn't help but half whisper as he watched the two bodies of the techs fall limp to the ground. You know...bunching up was a strangely stupid strategy.

Door? Why would they want that door. But.. The techs were had, if they shot then likely the teachers and kids could get stuck in the way of passing bullets. "We will shoot!" they threatened again, but it was a hollow one, and ignored.
Then everything went too quickly to react, a shot was fired forward, causing all the tech's to open a shot at Colt's back, hitting dead on but instead of reacting he simply spun around and put down the two in the middle. One male, one female, as if just to make the cosmos even. Immediatly, everyone scattered, grabbing a door on each side to fling it open and duck behind. Theree of them all made it to different doorways, however another was stuck with the stairway they'd come out of, only to be met with Alan and Peri entering.
Once they had made it to the top of the stairs Alan had grabed hold of the wheels, moving forward, and just as he'd started into the hallway, he was met with a sound of a gunshot and tech's panicing.
"Boss!" The one squeaked, thinking for a moment it may have been a ghost.. But none the less, a ghost he needed to protect. Brain spinning from the life or death situation, he grabbed the chair roughly, yanking it forward and sending it shooting across the hall to the open room that contained a comrade.
Beweildered, Alan froze, shooting across the hall and into a room, slowing to a stop and grabbing at the wheels to try and spin around and figure out what was going on, but everything was moving too fast. Gunshots had started up, and the two familiar assassins were now making an escape.
