I'm making this quick:

I need people to come with me to Heartland in the 12 Dimensions, the sister city of Hero City, to stop a likely imminent attack there.

And to help me hunt down a man named "Mr. Heartland". And three goons of his I'm certain are behind a long long string of crimes.

My stake on the latter is professional and he's kidnapped my brother.

[the_ebbandflow]

Wait, what? Your little brother was kidnapped? Was that what that call was?!

[photonslight]

Yes. To tell me to lay off the case.

I'm going to triple my efforts instead.

[forgottenfrozenfloe]

You've got to be kidding me, that's like the oldest cliche in the book to piss off a cop.

[the_ebbandflow]

... I'll come with.

[forgottenfrozenfloe]

If you're going, I'm coming too.

[photonslight]

I'll have to register you both as consultants to Beast.

[memoryistime]

Oh, goddamnit. That sucks.

[photonslight]

Extremely so and I am going to put a fist through his head by the time I'm done.

[memoryistime]

Ugh. I'd help out here, but I think my priority is figuring out this Academia business first of all, especially after one of the dragons got turned into a card.

Looks like you got takers as it is.

[photonslight]

... You're not implying one of the Signer Dragons, I should hope.

[memoryistime]

I'm 100% implying one of the Signer Dragons.

[photonslight]

[memoryistime]

Yeah, you can see what my issue is, here.

[photonslight]

If you need to keep in contact with me, Orbital's delivering a Communicator, I want to be kept up to speed if I need to coordinate after stopping this attack.

[memoryistime]

That's entirely fair. Thanks. I'll keep you updated on what's happening on my end, then.

[photonslight]

I'll pass anything relevant on my end to you as well.

[i_like_red]

I'll come.
I really don't want to be standing around doing nothing and it's important to both protect the remaining Heartland as well as recover your brother.

My powers may not be at 100%, but I can still duel.

[photonslight]

I'll have to register you too as well.

[danse_etoile]

I'll be coming with my husband.

[photonslight]

I think five people should be more than enough.

Though I don't recall any specific reputation about you.

[danse_etoile]

I'm just a teacher, but I've dealt with this sort of madness before.

[photonslight]

Weakest person among us.

But if the Supreme King trusts you as his life partner, I see no reason to object.

[danse_etoile]

Trust me, I'm not weak by a long shot.

[photonslight]

I mean comparatively.

[grimgrimwar]

What's going on? Who's attacking it?

[photonslight]

The people who attacked the one here, most likely.

I believe you recognize them. They have military suits.

The Mayor of my Heartland is the Mayor of Earth's Heartland. Not clones. The same exact man.

[grimgrimwar]

...the mayor of....at least two Heartlands...kidnapped your brother...and is connected to an Academia attack...on the Heartland in the 12 Dimensions. Do I have that all straight.

[photonslight]

He's likely left any defenses of the city worthless and open, which is likely how this world's one did, I'm almost certain.

He's also likely one of the most notorious criminals in the 12 Dimensions. White Collar Crime. Financial theft. Murder. Arson. Assassination. Cleaning.

And of course, the worst crime of all, Jaywalking.

[grimgrimwar]

Hooookay. When are you going there? Do you have any idea when the attack is gonna happen?

[photonslight]

Within a few days, and probably immediately if it hasn't already, I have a gut feelings Heartland's departure is related to his failure to grab Wakahisa, my brother being kidnapped and my hometown.

It's a lot of jump conclusions but you get an idea for things when serving on the field, Grant. Plus I have a heavy profile for Heartland.
