Mikoto nodded, "Kamoze. Very well. Welcome to our cause," he raised his voice again, speaking to the whole group, "For all... one of you that are unaware, my name is Mikoto Sato. I'm an assistant to Representative Oshihara. Over my time in his office these past weeks, I've heard disturbing discussion between politicians about the Barrier beginning to fade. They referred to "the source" as losing power. Now, they've been discussing this for weeks, but the bureaucracy of government is keeping anyone from doing anything without concrete answers, and I don't think we have that kind of time. So that's why I've gathered you all. You're... not exactly the best of the best, but you're all I could scrape together, so... this is what we'll have to work with," he walked back to a blackboard covered by a sheet by the wall, "Any questions before I discuss our immediate steps?"

Kamoze shakes his head " not that I can think of, kid. let's see what you have before I critique your strategy"

"So let me get this straight... You want to try and fix the barrier. I guess some questions that come to mind are, what do you know about holy magic? How do you plan on fixing this? How are we involved in this? You've gathered us all here, and told you that you've done so, so what are your plans?" Aiko had said, walking back from the bar with 2 beers in each hand. She set one down in front of each of them, keeping one for herself.

"The fact of the matter is," Mikoto stated, "We have no idea what's powering the barrier. What we need today is a quick in and out mission to find out what is, and what the problem with it is. Even if God himself were among us today, we wouldn't be able to do anything without knowing the problem. We can't fix everything in one go. The plan can carry forward more later. In the words of a certain wizard, you are our burglars. Well, so am I. We are burglars. We will get in, find the information we need, get out, and form a plan based on what we see during that excursion." He turns to the whiteboard, "Here's a map of the monastery. At least what parts of it I can gather. I also have paper copies for quick reference," he passed them out. He only had three - one each for him, Asumi and Aiko - but the new guy made it so they had fewer pictures. Probably being the one who'd seen the map the most, Mikoto concluded that he may as well be the one who didn't get one. "Guard duty shifting begins at midnight, but our best shot won't be until closer to 12:06, due to the way that the shift takes place. One particular guard is often pretty laid back during the first parts of his shift, doing... I don't know what, but he isn't paying much attention to the world around him. That is the time to act. From there, we'll split up. Groups of two I guess. Me and Asumi, and then you two together. We don't know where in the building this thing is, so we'll have to explore as much as we can. Avoid detection, keep in contact using these pagers," he passed a single ancient-looking pager to Aiko, "We have two hours to search around. Stay out of the public parts of the church. Meet back up where we came in at that time, because that's when our guard takes his first break and we escape. Any questions?"

Kamoze ponders on this, he had a multitude of questions, but opted at this time to not ask any. he wasnt even sure who these people were

Mikoto claps his hands together, "All right, so that's about it. I guess I don't really know you guys well, so Rin, Kamoze, what is it you two are good at? It's easiest to lead a team when you know what people can do, and I honestly know next to nothing about you guys except that Rin has great hearing and is a terrible liar," he smirked a little upon saying that, "Anything you can do or know that could be helpful."

Kamoze looks at Mikoto and hangs his head low "Well..." The lights in the room fizzle out as Kamoze's Tetsubo Forms in his hands. Jet Black with luminescent blue designs. "I am a Warlock. An escaped Experiment. I dont even know what i could even do, but this is what i can do right now. Im sure i could figure it out given time and Practice

Aiko pats Kamoze's shoulder rather hard and smile's "You'll figure it out. Magic can be tricky but this is a great start. As for me? Basically same as him. Magic powers, I usually keep my weapon hidden, but my powers are quite a bit more vast right now. It's partially why my hearing is better. I'm sure that'll be useful. Also, finish your drink. They were a bit more expensive tonight so everyone better drink it all."

Kamoze takes the drink and enjoy every drop. Nothing like a great drink in the eveni g with beautiful women in close proximity

Mikoto goes to slam his hand down on the table and yell, "I knew it!" but stops halfway through, realizing he'd just look like an idiot. He didn't even know about her powers; just her really good hearing. Apparently their newfound allies were a little bit... more than he had anticipated. Not that he was complaining. Maybe a master and student relationship? He was unsure. It's kind of how Rin talked though. "Asumi, before we get things started, do you have any secret special abilities we should know about?"

"I've been studying to become a doctor, but in these desperate times they have sped up the education so I am almost completely done," Asumi explains very properly to Mikoto and the group. "I don't know much in terms of combat but I will make sure you all remain healthy."

Kamoze's vote of confidence in this Nurse was little, but what did he even know about the others to even judge anyway? this morning he was at home and now he's in some place with this kid telling him about this heist to save the Barrier. kamoze felt that him and Rin had the same idea about doing the opposite if possible

"And I'm sorry for being an inconvenience, Rin," Asumi expressed and pushed her glass of beer slightly away from herself. "I don't drink alcoholic beverages. Someone else may have mine, though I wouldn't recommend anyone to intoxicate themselves right before a mission like this."

Kamoze grabs Asumi's drink and gulps it down " more for me I suppose, Little sister"

Mikoto nodded, "Hopefully we won't need your services tonight, Asumi, but that is more than helpful to have in case the worst comes to pass," he surveyed the table, notably not even glancing at the drink given to him. He didn't want to be rude and pass it back, but also he didn't want to be drunk for the mission. Honestly he was unsure about Kamoze going out as he was, but the man seemed like a functioning alcoholic, so it probably didn't matter very much. "Well, if everyone knows what we're doing, we'll reconvene at the stated time, probably in this same room. Go eat dinner, do whatever, if you're not on time we leave without you. Any questions?"
