The man in the black suit approaches at that point, his eyes covered by sunglasses. He tips them to the heroes, nodding, before speaking. "I do believe that is my cue...I am going to have to ask you to let the girl come with me. My...employers have questions they wish to ask you. I assure you, she will not be harmed. But, if you protest, I am afraid I am auhorized to use force against you."
At that, he pulls out a single small gem, small enough to fit in the palm of his hand, and rolls it idly around. "Do you understand?"

Seina briefly makes a face like she's going to start yelling as she fumes about getting someone to finally shake her hand after holding it up for so long, probably a few minutes or less, but she instead just whimpers inaudibly and lets her tired hand finally fall. "Okay.... Well we can teach you that trick later. More importantly you know who I am and we're pretty much besties now.." She looks at the strange, shaded man, cutting him off before he can get a response from them. "Could you hold on? I am trying to make new friends here and you are being VERY rude. We can visit your shady talent agency or whatever once I'm done. And you...." Seina finally notices Alexis, perhaps in part due to the hard staring." ...you? I haven't met yet." Seina perks up as she starts circling the newcomer, or so she thinks. She thoroughly examines them, getting increasingly excited for some apparent reason.
"I can't believe it! More cosplayers! And what a intricate costume! Full body and everything! I can only imagine all the effort it took to get all the small details right for something people call a cold blooded reptile with no remorse. I mean, look at those sharp eyes, like you might spring forth any moment. The serpentine way you move, balanced with equal grace and form! Yes, despite the reputation typically associated with them I really love your cosplay. It's a beautiful lawyer costume. From the Adept Attorney Series, right? Fennics Rite is a awesome character." She stops and offers her hand to Alexis.
[[No rolls for this, I think. Just Seina being rude and trying to wrap up introductions.]]

Aiko turns to the glassed figure, raising an eyebrow in obvious suspicion "Not sure where you are coming from suddenly... but I think especially when you dress up like a mafia member, you might not wanna be vague with details. Threatening us with violence... well, that's even worse..." Aiko says with a grin before she starts to roll one of her shoulders, her free hand placed on said shoulder "So who exactly are you ? Or should we get right to it ?" She asks.

Alexis crosses her arms. "You'd best make introductions before you tally those odds in your head, sir." The serpents behind her stir and hiss. "I'll start. Alexis Marinos. Attorney for the Red Skies Law Firm. Currently working with Greta Van Hout, of the campus Meta Club. You may have seen some of our other activities on the news recently." The words did nothing to explain further, but Alexis' hard-eyed look left no question about who they might be to a stranger making threats.

Addy turns to stare at the man in black. Just...stare. She stares a lot doesn’t she? She’s got a dead on pokerface now, that certainly doesn’t seem to suggest she wants to go along with the stranger. Anyone listening might hear a soft….clicking sound coming from Addy, though it’s hard to tell just what exactly she has that could be causing that.

The man looks at Alexis...and growls. He clutches the quartz harder in his hand...before laughing. "Well...lawman. You seem to have made a bit of a mistake. You don't know my name. You don't know who I work for. So...Vampyr. Lemurian...Gorgon. I am afraid you all have no power over me. And, I have one little trick up my sleeve."
He closes his eyes and prepares himself. sJqAp1kR
(Okay, he's gonna be invoking aspects for this...a LOT of them. So, Alexis gets one FP from her Ambition, as he's not WITHIN the law. That's a +2 off the bat...Which surprisingly makes it!)
He takes the crystal, and it begins to glow...before he tosses it to the ground with a crack. He steps back as it shatters. Smoke fills the area, and when it clears...three new figures are standing in front of him. One is a hissing woman, covered in scales, with a hideous mask for a face. It's frozen in a scream, snakelike and ugly. Her legs are nothing more then a long, serpentine tail, with a head full of braids, each with a serpantine head at the end. Though, they look frozen in place...FROZEN frozen. As if it's a plastic wig, or something.
The second figure is...it's a guy in a Dracula costume. His face looks almost like it's painted white, his eyes pure red, with no pupils or iris, and GLOWING. Two large fangs protude over his lips. The man lets out a hiss, almost as good as the snake lady's.
And the last...it's...it's what appears to be a large, Octopus person. It's head is overly enlarged, and instead of hands it has eight writing tentacles. And, the head, the size of a normal human's torso...is perched on two humanoid legs, with clawed feet. The skin is strange, looking like it has the consistency of rubber. It, the odd one out, growls and waves tentacles threateningly.

Seina looks at the fake Vampire that 'Creepo', now the man in black's new name, made and sighs, having become so tired of things getting in the way of her making friends. All she wanted to do was say 'hi' to everyone and maybe help the Addy while meeting new friends. Oh well. Her countenance, in a second, completely changes from perky to serious. "Guess you're going to force the issue then, Mr. Creepo?"
Seina then, in a quick and fluid motion, reaches into her skirt and pulls out a pink police baton. She gives it a hard swing, fully extending it as she shifts her stance into a fighting one. "Normally, I'd just let it go and run away, but honestly I'm not letting this insult go. I do NOT look like that! IT'S JUST A CHEAP IMITATION!"

(Sorry for the confusion...he was invoking a shitload of aspects to be able to make an aggressive action...in this case? "Summon my minions". While not an Attack...it still was an aggressive enough action for Alexis' block to be an issue.).

"Yep... it's on now! I take the eldritch rip off guys!" Aiko cracks her knuckles as her tail whips behind her. She let's out a somewhat adorable battlecry as she charges the Deep One, putting her body into a bodycheck. She seems to try and overpower the creature by sheer speed to force it onto the ground, before she would proceed with her street brawl.

With the sudden appearance of these...creatures, and the strangers newfound hostility, Addy quite promptly takes action!
[Agility check to bypass the monsters] [4+ Xsrsijmv ]
[If Success] Addy ducks between the summoned monsters, going straight for the stranger in black! He might see a strange red flash right before Addy goes in for a full swing, aiming to crush in his shoulder. [Strength check for an attack] [4 Strength + ]
[If Failure] Addy tries to elbow past the summoned creatures, but is held back! Though she keeps her rather unnerving dead gaze upon the man, focused on her target.
(EDIT: Okay so for whatever reason the dice rolls glitched out, so I had to edit some things to make it work, don't worry I'm not trying to scam the results or something) ·········

Alexis' brow rises, and her lips curl into a grimace. She puts a hand into her purse. "Well I guess I'll have to start... here." She pulls out her phone, raising it to eye level, and swipes a few times. "That, and a personal witness, are a great place to start an investigation. I guess that makes two things you can't leave behind." Alexis calmly puts the phone away. "What do you think--the FBI, or Psyche? I already know some agents in the latter, but I'm certainly prepared to make some new friends."
"So, what was your plan with these minions? To let them stand around all day and insult us with cheap stereotypes?" As Aiko throws herself forward, Alexis narrows her eyes at the stranger, "Because in that case, it's working."
((Alexis takes a supplemental action to begin attempting a Transmogrification. She also attempts a maneuver to add a Situation Aspect: "Has evidence he shouldn't leave." I think this would be a Resource roll based on the quality of Alexis' smartphone to take a useful picture, but it might be Persuasion. The base score is the same, at 3.))

The vampire creature looks at Seina. Red eyes, meet red eyes. And, the creature, the being straight out of a horror movie...blinks. Stepping backwards in fear, at the girl with the police baton.
It's a very, very scary police baton. Or just a very, very scary person wielding it.
(You succeed! He now has aspect: Cheap Imitation. Sadly, the DC is over 0, so...no spin. Still, you get one +2 for free, and can invoke it again with an FP)
The vampire, though, doesn't bother with trying to call out its foe. It just lunges at Seina. "BLOOD! I VANT YOUR BLOOD!" Fangs and claws are bared, as it tries to slash her to ribbons and drink the blood from her body.
qQWgPFee
Aiko, for her part, manages to smash at the Lemurian. It...isn't very fast it seems. She can't take it down to the ground, however...but she can at least cause it a bit of pain. Hopefully more then a bit. But this thing's scales...they're like armor.
The monster, meanwhile, hisses and slashes at her. Hissing and slashing appears to kinda be a thing with these guys. Intelligence is not their strong suit.
As for the last, well...Alexis is easily able to rile herself up...and transform. She can feel the change within her, ready to go. Not to mention...she's DAMN intimidating.
(Okay, letting you roll all of it at once, even though it's technically THREE rolls. One to rile yourself up, one to transform, and one to put the aspect. You also get a -1 penalty for stacking things...which still means you make all three rolls easy. You also got the Situation Aspect up. Congrats. One free invoke. Now, thanks to Transmog, you have 4AP...Which can be spent on, amongst other things, making Permenant Aspects. Potential +4 to attack.)
For once, the killer monster does not hiss and charge. No, it hisses and goes for a tail whip at the transforming Gorgon. Totally different. At least it seems rather slow...
As for Addy? Well...the man in black isn't prepared to dodge. At all. Still, he tries at least...
And barely manages to get out of the way, by falling backwards to the ground. Though, he is FLAT ON HIS ASS···················

Alexis slips under the tail strike, slipping her phone into her purse. Still bowed, she quickly unbuttons the bottom of her coat and dress shirt. On the backswing, Alexis reaches out to catch her opponent's tail with both sets of arms. Not yet sure if the monster was an automaton or someone under a curse or spell, she avoids the direct attack for now, simply using her arms to move up "Medusa's" tail and pin it down, her upper arms poised to catch its claws if it tries to retaliate.
((Attempt to block the fake Gorgon through grappling. TF goes into Extra Limbs with two points into Efficient, providing a +4 bonus on checks like grappling and similar work with all those limbs. Base Strength is 0, but adding in Wrestler, the modifier comes to +6.))

((Alexis also tries to make a Knowledge check on the item Mysterious Agent used. Though she has no advantages or aspects on that kind of knowledge, her base is 2.))

((Defense Roll against Vampire attack. 5 Perception+ 2 for advantages +CY71Bp2o ))
Seina charges intothe attack, stepping to the side to avoid it as she perceives the arcs of the vampires swipes. From the side, Seina counters and grabs the vampires arm as she strikes at elbow's joint to break it with her baton, before throwing the vampire against the side of a building. Aiming to finish the fight, she charges the vampire from the side she injured and boosts herself into the air using their knee while kneeing them in the face.. The last thing they see is Seina coming back down about to drive the hilt of the baton into their face....
