"Do it."
Standing in the midst of a Birmingham civilian crowd, was a man who blended in well with the rest of them. Talking on a black cell-phone, as the cool winter breeze made his blood-red colored tie sway. He closed his eyes, making a slow grin as something most unusual would occur. Something that simply made him grin, practically smile with glee, as butterflies developed and dance in his stomach.
Radio stations in the many vehicles passing by and through Birmingham's streets found an unusual phenomena overtake them as suddenly whatever they had been listening too prior was overtaken. Now, playing on all the cars was Beethoven's Ode to Joy--blasting from the vehicles as they began to slow down or speed up, drivers confused greatly. The man in the crowd tucked his phone in his pocket, looking up towards one particular building that stood higher than the rest in his vicinity. Eyes narrowing as for a moment a slight red seemed to flicker in them.
The building the man had been staring at, suddenly would experience an explosion towards the part. Debris flying from it as the building began to cave in from inside--collapsing--and all the while throwing the civilian public into a frenzied chaos of fear. Scattering them left and right, as cars collided with one another and people evacuated the area. Many people were heard screaming things about terrorist attacks, others were simply too terrified to comment. The man who had stared at the building that exploded only moments prior too it, had turned his back on it and began walking away from the scene.
The man would extend a hand into his pocket to withdraw from it his phone. Opening it and pressing a button, he smiled with a most satisfied glee. "Ah what a beautiful pillar of flames you created this time. Remind me to raise your income by an exact percentile boost of 0.5%!~" The man seemed to charmingly speak into the phone. Truly pleased by the discord caused, slowing his pace of walking as he saw a charred scrap of paper fall in front of him. The man's eyes would only narrow as he scanned what it had read before the paper hit the ground and burned to ash.

Sakura was currently in Europe tracking down some arms dealer that had come from outer space, basically an alien, at first Sakura had thought that this would be an easy mission. How many alien arms dealer were there in the world? I mean they have to look non-human right? She was wrong, apparently aliens had the technology to replicate the local inhabitant's look and now this alien arms dealer looked like any other human as she sighed.
Then a building exploded as Sakura jumped a bit as she looked at it, "Nani? What happened?" she asked as she raced to the scene, perhaps the arms dealer had been demonstrating a weapon, in which case she had been too late to stop it as she cursed to herself as she transformed herself in order to get a good reading at where the alien might be as she scanned the area.

Vladimir perked, catching glimpse of a most unusual appearance far off to his side. He grinned slowly, taking in the details of the form--a bright red color, and heavily suited. The appearance was similar to tech of his time, albeit a bit predating towards it. Either way he couldn't help but feel a new fancy develop as his soul danced with a desire to see its capabilities, was it worth something acquiring and replicating?
As he tucked his phone away. Vladimir would reach into his other jacket pocket and pull out a series of marbles. Tossing them outwards as they exploded in mid-air and became a unit of about two dozen Anaroids that let out cybernetic cries as they marched towards the scene of the exploded building. "Do me well, my creations." Vladimir sang softly underneath his breath.
'Your Protocol: Test that Red Armored Warrior'

Sakura then saw the Anaroids walk towards her as they began their attack, she dodged their attempts and took out her Vicetriver before shooting several of them down, blocking the returning fire with her Danzai-blade as she rushed and began to fight them while at the same time trying to figure out who was the mastermind behind this whole thing.

Vladimir simply watched his creations attempt to fight the red warrior. He knew they wouldn't be able to do much--after all the true purpose of the Anaroids was to swarm and instill fear. For something like this, he was merely using them to gather small amounts of data. Not requiring anything like binoculars as even in his human form he possessed his ability of enhanced sight.
'An interesting being this is... I'll tear away the helmet of that thing if I have too, but for now let's see what they're capable of before I act.'

Sakura slashed at one of the droids as it fell apart in half, before shooting several more, these guys were easy enough...she could easily beat them with one hand tied behind her back! However she still kept an eye out for the mastermind as her eyes stopped at Vladimir, he was the only guy who was watching the whole thing calmly while people were running for their lives, "You!" she said pointing as she dashed towards him, "You're the one in charge of this!"

Vladimir only smiled innocently, normally the case of being found out was annoying--because it normally led to him having to permanently silencing whoever witnessed his true identity. A task he frowned upon solely because he hated being forced to stain his hands. Of course in this case, he would make exception, hearing the voice allowed Vladimir to identify the red warrior was a woman, chuckling softly as he came to this realization. "Now what's a woman doing with such a wonderful piece of equipment?" He questioned still where he stood.

Sakura frowned, "SPD officer Sakura Mouri-Kudo! You are under arrest for terrorism, using illegal weapons, and causing panic to the public," she announced, "Surrender now or I will be forced to use force."

Vladimir's eyes narrowed, 'SPD? So even here they--no matter, I shall do as I always have done. Resist, Detain, and Execute.' he thought to himself. Vladimir had said nothing for a few moments before letting out a bit of a cackle, he would look at her--observing her suit again for a few more moments before finally speaking. "Isn't that cute, you wish to apprehend me? Slap the good 'ol silver handcuffs on and take me in? Or is this a time where SPD does not require the use of such primitive devices..?" Vladimir joked.
"It matters not, for I won't be taken in by a simple child of the Law." He pulled his left sleeve up exposing a strange brace-like device, closing his eyes and smiling as he began to remove it. "I'll have to ask you... bleed for me!" His eyes snapped open as the brace was taken off--his form changing into that of his real form. A bat-like alien monstrosity that would stand before Sakura and take a one-armed bow.
"I must inform you that I have no intention of turning myself in or going quietly with the SPD. You're quite welcome to try and bring me in with force, but I think you will quickly find that you alone will be unsuccessful." He told her, closing his hand and opening it to reveal more of those same marbles from before. He threw them at her, the marbles exploding in mid-air as he called forth half a dozen more Anaroids.

"Handcuffs? Hardly? We have better equipment to bring you in," Sakura said as she scoffed, "a simple child? You underestimate me," she said. Sakura watched as the man transformed into some sort of monster, she grimaced, she would have to give it everything she got with this one. She couldn't afford to lose him now, he must be the alien arms dealer that SPD was looking for, "I will stop you, even if I have to destroy you," she exclaimed as she took out her sidearms and began attacking the Anaroids

Abrella remained pleased, she had taken the bait. Focusing more on the Anaroids whom had charged her, he would take himself to change his shape and form--becoming a flurry of bats. The bats letting out cybernetic screeches as they flew past the Anaroids and at Sakura.
'Zerstruen!'
The bats clustered together before they re-formed into Abrella. Now standing before Sakura as he slashed her with his claws, kicking her back with his foot. He let out a most obnoxious cackle as he eyed her. "Admitting one's flaws is key to improvement, anyone not a child should know those very words." He scolded her, only adding salt to the wound. "I told you before you may attempt to bring me in, proclaiming that you will bring me in or that you will destroy me is but hot-headed over-confidence." He wagged a finger to her.

Sakura screamed as she was slashed by the claws as she fell to the ground, but then rolled back up as she growled at Vladimir, "We'll see about that!" she said as she aimed her Vicetriver and unloaded a barrage towards Vladimir.

Abrella cackled, "Energy Weaponry is pointless to use against me." Abrella revealed as he covered himself with his cape--it projecting a thin layer that acted as an energy shield. "After being constantly shot at by the Law of the Future I decided to develop this useful piece of equipment." He walked toward her slowly.
"What will you do now?" He cackled again, he would've striked her but one flaw to maintaining this shield was that he could only move in ways that didn't cause him to open the cape. If he opened the cape--a part of him not covered by the Energy Shield would be exposed for vulnerability.

"Damn it!" Sakura exclaimed in frustration as she charged towards him and decided to go for close quarter combat as she slashed at Abrella.

Abrella cackled, all according to his plan. These human beings were so-predictable when it came to encountering his equipment for the first time. He crouched some, slapping his cape open and smacking Sakura's wrist with his right hand. Leaving her open as he seized her by the throat of her armor with his left hand--hoisting her off the ground.
"Predictable! Truly truly predictable!" He cackled, "Shall I let you fight for your life a bit longer? Give you a bit more of a chance to try and seize my freedom or my life?" He questioned allowed, "Why not!" He laughed as he threw her back onto the ground. Cackling even louder as he reveled in this entire display.
