As the bullet rang out, and the illusion was broken, he couldn't help but smirk. He was right, the clock did have to do something with them being stuck in that weird illusion. However, the man behind it was right in front of them as well, too which with Berit's very slight praise and trying to make him afraid, Date simply picked himself up, moved over to the mad hatter and gave him a clean hook to the face, crouching down to find whatever he might have had to get them all stuck there "Nice try asshole, but next time, don't mess with a detective that's easy to piss off." He gave a glance to Berit to show the change in who he spoke to as he searched the mad hatter and as well kept ready to stop him from doing anything "And yeah, just cause I haven't seen someone go from cat to person before, doesn't mean I haven't dealt with psychopaths and murderers."

It seemed that they were dealing with the thugs well enough, hell their numbers were thinning! He turned to look over to Sougo to see that he was unconscious and grey and what he could assume to be Shantae as a monkey had dealt with him, which was great. But the feeling in his head...it was getting worst, there had to be something else here stopping them, right? He looked around to see if anything could be picked up by himself or Aiba. However, then his attention turned down to the clock that was underneath them all, what they had been using as ground. It was really fucking annoying, but also...maybe it had something to do with them being stuck in this nightmare land? Quickly, with Aiba's help, he determined where the clock's main mechanism would be, quickly pulling his evolver out as it seemed to transform from a normal gun to a sci-fi one, taking aim and firing at the glass, hoping that something good could come of it.

He could only frown at Berrit's response to his shock "Hey, I'm one of those 'brought not because of combat experience' kind of people, so I'm just a little out of my element right now, so maybe just some leeway being given would be nice."He then simply listened along as the others continued to talk about their teams, about to speak up before Aiba told him she already had it handled, too which he then kept to himself, at least he would of if the building nearby didn't seem to just explode.

With a look of shock, he quickly moved to the windows to see the event occur, taken aback by the sight of the building in ruins and the faint figure of superman floating there. Without lex's screaming, Date was already on the move, a determined look on his face as he quickly moved out of the building. At the bottom of the collapsed building itself, he stared up to the top, but seeing Joel run in he quickly spoke aloud without thinking "Aiba, grab blueprints of the building, we can use it to cross-reference what we see inside and what's still standing." He followed after Joel the moment he had them, seeing the two had helped some rubble off of a lady, afterward heading in deeper. He followed behind them silently as they started to come across more and more cleaner rooms, no fires anywhere, and also the chaos seemed to have been completely silenced. At least until a voice seemed to ring out throughout the building.

Date had reached for his own gun as he watched Joel take out his, making sure he was at the ready as well, looking like a simple revolver in his hands as he looked around for the source of the voice. Then, Joel seemed to slowly start moving inwards, to which others followed and so did Date himself. Entering a room, the door shut behind them, to which since Joel had a flashlight, Date went with his light and squinted at the scene in the room, yet continued to keep quiet. However, at the man and the weird fox person actually sitting he could only look surprised at them, he himself staying standing as he stared at the figure at the end of the table. That man might have been part of causing this...he was the problem here, so they should deal with him, but the two of them are talking? No...he should just be dealt with now...like being shot. Yes, he should be shot, like righ-. "Date, I can't allow the use of the Evolver yet, he hasn't done anything hostile"He shook the thoughts from his head, that was a weird train of thought and Aiba was saying he couldn't anyway, so he simply observed.

Some people seemed to be willing to actually Drink this guy's random stuff? Geez, and that cat person chick thought he was going to be trouble. After the weirdly dressed man actually took a drink of the liquid, the man seemed to hop on the table, walk over, and then...everything went dark, too actually being on a giant stopwatch with rabbit masked thugs falling and trying to attack them? Date quickly took a defensive position, finding a spot to protect himself as he waited for the thugs to approach them. Then, the man who actually drank the tea seemed to transform, and attacked the fox dude! Quickly, he turned to move towards him, but then Grey called out about how he could take care of Sougo for now, to which date hesitated a bit but then nodded. He ran for the closest thug, gun being put away as he focused on hand-to-hand combat, more so looking to incapacitate the thugs rather than kill them, even with the sound of Joel and Tess's guns going off. Then, hearing the girls shouting about the masks controlling them, Date switched up his strategy a bit, fighting off masked invaders while also ripping off the hats they were wearing. It seemed to start working, as they went from fighting thugs to confused citizens, he'd have to thank that scantily dressed girl for the idea of doing it.

Trevor simply pour himself more to drink from, listening to others join teams as he simply enjoyed himself at least until the chaos nearby began, causing his face to sour as he, unfortunately, put down the drink. Seeing out the window at the...odd city, he looked to the burning building, and hearing the bald man yell at them to run out and deal with it, he did just that. Moving out with the rest of the others, he could only follow Neagen's thinking of not wanting to completely just rush in there as Joel and others had. However, looking around at the situation as citizens were making their way out and injured were being dealt with, he realized his talents, unfortunately, didn't reach helping people. So with some thought, he moved around the building trying to find a way up, finding a door into the building that was on the opposite side near what could be assumed waste and such was dumped. What an odd structure, either way with little care of what was around him, he quickly threw the door open, and ran into the building, looking to the set of stairs. Upon entering it and looking up, he realized...man, that was a fucking lot of stairs. With a heavy sigh, he started to run up them...and continued to run...and run...

Before anyone could actually reach the closet, the door to the fire escape could be heard to be kicked open, as trevor stepped in with morning star and sword in hand, looking around to see...the situation having been handled, as well the roof seemed to have. Looking a bit confused, he could only awkwardly scratch the back of his head "Whoops...looks like I might have burst in a little too late. Sorry" After realizing that most of the people seemed to be dealt with, dead, or not there, he held his hands to his legs, bending over as he breathed a bit heavily. He muttered under each breath "Fucking...stairs...so many"

Date watched carefully as Lex pressed another button to show that sarah was relaxed and fine, to which he let out a breath. Good, he meant it when he said she was safe, he gave a glance to Joel as he turned back to Lex, hearing that they didn't need to know how to kill to help, just do what they were good at. Then, he turned over to look at the man in the weird full body suit, saying they should split into teams between tactical, information and strike. As he was about to speak up on which team he'd be on, the cat that he thought he was hallucinating talking, had suddenly turned into the man, causing Date to stare in fear for of Berit

"WOAH, THAT CAT JUST BECAME A PERSON" He was too deep in shock to think about answering the question. However, Hershel's watch would get a call from someone, should he answer it then the eye's (if he saw it pop out) voice would come up "Date and I would probably do well on Information, solving cases was a part of our job."

He listened to the man as he mentioned drowning out the voices alone, however did poor him a drink. As he walked off, the Belmont raised his cloak a bit to sniff himself, he didn't smell bad did he? Oh well, a drink's a drink, he happily took the glass in hand and took a nice swig of it. However, it seemed that the completely covered man thought they should split into groups, the now more muscular man and the other who had the talking cat...or what was a cat with them agreed. However, Trevor looked to Hershel directly when he spoke out. "So what your saying is that we should all actually try and beat down this flying, laser shooting, hole punching man by splitting into teams? As he finished his question, he broke into a smirk and then started to chuckle.

Finishing off with a smirk, he quickly finished the rest of the drink and looked amongst the three that had decided and agreed upon the teams idea as well the rest "That sounds like a crazy idea, but you know what, I've grown to like a little crazy. Count me in, however I can see myself being in any of these teams so I think I'll abstain on joining and see where I might be needed instead. I may not have any 'powers', or magic as others where I'm from, but I have fighting prowess and also the ability to make a quick plan in the heat of battle, whether it be storming a vampire's castle, or slaying some evil monsters." He also raised his cloak enough to show off the shortsword and whip he had, the whip, the morning star, made to kill vampires. However, this superman person didn't seem to be one that could be defeated easily by consecrated weapons so he assumed it wouldn't be too much help against him.

Location: Alleyway in Gotham city
Condition: Seperated, alone, and scared

Jack Sullivan, monster hunter extraordinaire, zombie avoiding master, coolest dude of the team! He was just chilling in the treehouse, messing around with the recently obtained arcade machine. They had gotten into contact with other people, were going to see them soon, the gang wasn't breaking up. This was going to be the best day of his life! At least that's what he thought as he focused on playing, but then that odd feeling came about him, he scratched the back of his neck but the pain only got worst. His face changed from excited, to blank, finally to panic as he started to run for the tree house exit "Quint! June! Dirk! Someone, please...help me..." He barely made it out of the treehouse as he collapsed on the balcony, slowly losing himself to the darkness...

He quickly woke up, frantically looking around the...alleyway? He quickly picked himself up, looking over himself. Ok, he still had his backpack, the slicer, and...some weird watch? He held it up to squint at it, however the sounds of gunfire quickly brought him back to reality as he hid behind a few trashcans. Wherever this place was...it wasn't home, this had to be some sort of plan from Rezzoch, he held onto his legs as he sobbed quietly to himself.

Date watched the man closely as he pressed a button, eyes raising as he quickly turned to Sarah to watch as she disappeared, the scrawny man suddenly getting buffer and trying to leap forwards and grab the girl, just being short of missing her. He then turned back to Lex and glared at him through gritted, however Joel was already pissed off enough at this, and the dude who had the cat with him, the scrawny now buff dude was shouting about knowing where the girl was sent to, to which Date could only silently agree, wishing he was being given allowance to use the evolver, however Aiba made it clear this wasn't a situation where she could allow. So there he sat, glaring at the man to give them an answer

Trevor nodded to the man, then made his way carefully to Kira, making sure as to not bump into anyone and cause anymore action that wouldn't be needed. He glanced to Jeff who seemed to grab a bottle without even asking for the man to move, however he looked to Kira directly "So terribly sorry to bother, but could you please move out of the way so I can grab myself a bottle as well? Or even maybe you'd like to have a drink with me while those more willing to start swinging in this fight each other to death or something?"

Name: Jack Sullivan

Age: 14

Gender: Male

Canon: Last kids on earth

Main Thread or Sandbox: Sandbox

Starting Location: Gotham city, just woke up in an ally.

Personality: If you were to listen to Jack describing himself, he'd say he's the coolest, raddest, best looking dude of their group. How he's fought off monsters and zombies alike with his trusty baseball bat. But really he can be bossy, rude, and even whiny most of the time. However, when in a tough situation he can find a way to help lead his friends to safety in also the most fun way possible. Even to the point of caring about his friends safety deeply in situations where they might get horribly hurt, but otherwise, he tries to keep up the mood and morale. However, this doesn't mean he's all good, he can get a bit selfish when it threatens him being left alone, even in irrational ways of thinking. As well his ego can sometimes get the best of him in these times, causing him to become a bit frantic at getting distractions for ignoring what could take away his friends forever from him.

Equipment:
The Louisville Slicer

A bat that he held dear to him, of which had a piece of it chipped off. He now slowly is sharpening it into a sword, however.

Attributes: He's a decently overall well off, however he mostly uses his speed and quick thinking to his best advantage in a fight. Having swung around his bat a lot, and also training in an actual sword he's been trained decently in defending himself with anything alike to a sword. Otherwise, he's just a normal teen boy.

Biography: The start of the apocalypse was crazy, monsters coming out of portals, zombies turning more people into zombies. Jack, having been separated from his family, went and hid in his treehouse and continued to use it as a home base to stay safe from all the creatures, living on his own. However, after some trips out he found himself bumping into Quint and soon enough, Dirk and June, one who used to be their bully but is now slowly becoming more closer to the group and the latter not even close to them but eventually following suite as well. Together, the group has fought off monsters and zombies, made friends with some of the more rational ones, helped stop the world from being taken over by an evil force. However, with time passing on and the kids finding more to do, they find a radio that seems to be sending a signal for help to other living humans, and while most of the group is ecstatic at this, Jack sees it as a chance to separate their friendship and for him to be alone again. However, after the two being in danger and the rest coming back to help save them, he realizes it's irrational.

The two watched as the man responded, date glaring at him in his response, the eye meanwhile simply nodded at what he said. At the response of how time was relative and it moved differently, the eye gave a nod to him "Very well then. Thank you, for being reasonable to all of us and as well being willing to answer questions. I will contact you directly some other way if need be" The eye gave something like a bow, then turned to date, to which he picked it up and placed it back into the socket, then he looked back to Lex.

"Fine, although you better not have touched Mizuki" He left it at that as Lex then brought his attention to the table, the lights dimming and a hologram showing some man flying around. Lex called him "superman", to which date rolled his eyes a bit at, it was a really uncreative hero name. But then, seeing him next start to attack buildings and kill citizens had Date frown as he watched it all. As he went to look back at Lex, the older man came forward and punched him in the face, causing the guards to be called in. As they pointed their guns at him, Date only could stare at the man with a blank look. Then, he turned to look through the crowd to where he was standing, noticing a young girl that was looking at him. He then could only watch as the one dude in the weird suit getup shot webbing out to tie him down. He then looked over to Joel, then back to Lex as Fret spoke up in outrage"Your getting real close to pissing off a lot of people in this room, baldie. Including me, your telling me that you even picked out kids to help out on this mission to kill some alien that went rogue? I find it hard to agree with that, even if your not picking out people just cause they can fight, what happens to those who can't that get caught in a tough situation alone? You just gonna say their deaths are for a just cause and move on? As well those who didn't want to be here can't get back without your help, sounds a lot like you kidnapped people and are forcing them to help out."

==========================================================================================================================================================

Trevor watched and listened to the others in the room refer to the bald man, as well as make note of what Otto said about guards being outside the room. Great, this man was expecting the more brash ones of them were to be handled simply, perfect. He figured it another good note to keep himself calm even if he believed he'd be fine to deal with a big amount of guards, hopefully with others help in this room. But then as they asked what they were going to be doing, the man himself got up and walked over to some table as the light in the room seemed to slowly die out, causing Trevor to glance around for what could be causing this, but seeing nothing. Trevor figured to move a bit forward to see the table better, and soon enough lights popped up that seemed to show some flying man. However, it's not as if something like this was new to Trevor, even if the application of how was at a lost for him, probably the same source the moving box and dying lights had.

He listened carefully as the bald man spoke of this superman, showing how he went from great protector to mass murderer, however before he could continue one of those brash fellows seemed to take action by punching him in the face, winning a bit of respect from Trevor. However, then the guard force that Otto had mentioned seemed to come through and point odd weapons at the man, however, he didn't seem like he was going to back down. Trevor was about to take a step to help with pulling the man off but the one who mentioned the guards seemed to make truth with his claims, using odd webs to pull him off and onto the ground. As the man sat back down and asked if they had any other questions, he allowed the others to speak before making his own point with a raised finger above his head first to get Lex's attention, then holding it lower while he asked his point "Well, while you're saying we can't go back without having helped you first...can I get a drink? Some alcohol would make this a bit more bearable if you could"

Date was unamused by the guy saying he was giving off assumptions, then going off to say that it wasn't him that was trapped, but rather them trapped with him. Date was quick to respond "Ok then, if this is just an invitation then why don't you just make your way through the glass? Shouldn't be too hard, right?" Although before he could get a response out of Sephiroth, the lady showed up again and told them all how this luthor guy was ready to see them. Finally, date was getting sick of waiting in this cage with all these other random people. As he followed behind the lady, he eyed her for a bit then nodded to himself, alright maybe she was a 6. He looked annoyed for a second while in the elevator as a certain something reprimanded him for not being focused on the current situation, then they got to the top. It was a nice-looking office, the man named Lex Luthor in question sat in an office chair, telling them to get comfortable.

Date allowed the others to ask their questions and move to their positions, listening to Lex Luthor respond to them all, smirking a bit at the comment made by Samford but immediately going back to a straight face as someone else would ring off again in his head. Afterwards, he approached the desk himself, looking to the bald man "So just to get this right, for safety you made us all feel a spot of pain in the back of our heads, trapped us in a cage so you could keep us held there for a bit, now want us to do a job for you? Yeah, sounds really like a good thing for us, especially-" he was cut off as one of his eyes seemed to look around on its own.

then after a bit, it popped out into a small bear-like figure, landing on Lex's desk, looking to him "Excuse me, Mr Luthor. I'm sorry if my sudden coming out startles you, but I wanted to speak to you directly rather than through Date. I don't mean to be rude, but what will happen to those that don't want to help with the 'bounty'. As well, what about where we are from, if something important is needed to get back to for some of these people?" the eye looked to Lex, waiting for a response while Date closed the now empty eye and shot a glare to the bear, then looked to Lex himself.

Trevor was enjoying waking up and getting ready for the day of travel him and Sypha were going to get through on their mission to help others, but then he felt the pain in the back of his head. He brushed it off for now, must have been drinking to much the night before right? But then it got worse and worst, before he collapsed he quickly turned and looked around, someone had to be causing this right? But he couldn't stand for long as he looked and looked but eventually collapsed, falling into unconsciousness with the last thought in his mind being Sypha's safety. He held onto that thought for the last moment he could, then nothing...

When waking up he rubbed the back of his head with his eyes closed. What the hell could that have been? Some magician pulling a trick on him, maybe some sort of vampire magic? But as he opened his eyes and looked around, he noticed all the others. There were all sorts of creatures, not even just people, some made of metal, others reminded him of animals, even some night creatures. However, before he could even process anything, some odd woman had called for their attention and to meet some Luthor fellow. He glanced around to everyone else, no one else seemed too confused or panicked, so he decided to keep to himself and calm as well. Slowly picking himself off the ground, glad to have his cloak on him, he followed along behind the others, trying to keep to the back of the group, giving a confused glance to the interior of the elevator before stepping inside of it himself. However, when the contraption closed and started...vibrating, he glanced around at the motionless walls. Odd, must be some weird magician trick or possibly machinery that was doing all of this, he gave a glance around to see if anyone else was in awe, horror, or equal confusion as himself, but it didn't really seem like it so he continued to keep to himself. Then, when exiting the elevator, he made sure to find some way to allow the majority of the group forwards again so he could stick to the back, looking around at some weirdly decorated room with many things he couldn't name off of the top of his head, let alone relate to something similar. But ahead of them seemed to be the man in charge, so he waited for the others to speak, glancing at Spike, then he cleared his throat as to have Lex look to him and he spoke "Well, while I'm sure that some others are completely happy to immediately help with something they were suddenly thrown into, I agree with the man on the fact that this should be worth my time as well. Especially since I was in the middle of something extremely important."
