After such eventful days as had been, Leon had hoped that he could return to Headquarters and rest up. Get some people organized and checking in on that crap at the mall. There was so much to do he just wanted to get a coffee and smoke a cig, but no. He had to prepare a joining ceremony because people decided to stand out and make themselves useful and worthy. Utter bullshit in his crabby opinion.
Lighting a cigarette as he approached the Lightning Tower Company building, the utility company being used as a front to house the Raijin Clan's main family. He needed the cig to relax, but what seemed like six seconds the cigarette was done and he had to get to work, so he would approach the doors, ready to enter and get to work.
~I really hope this week levels out soon, or I'm going to break someone, and it isn't going to be pretty.~

Yun showed up soon after. He was prepared after his very recent talk with the boss. And he was ready to get back into the field. Too long had he been behind a desk. He was feeling rusty...

Drake had gotten the memo to meet up at this place. He was surprised to see his great uncle and his number one lap dog already here. Shit must be serious.
"Yo, what up Leon? Why we here?"

Ayden showed up little bit later. Along with his usual black half mask, he also wore a sling holding his arm up.

Lorelai wandered up, her arms crossed over her chest and head tilted to one side. She glanced over at Ayden and cocked a brow, but said nothing, giving a very slight shake of her head. Not her business to question. She gave a very slight nod, first to Leon, then to Yun. She didn't acknowledge Drake at all.

Despite the days that had passed since the incident at the mall, Ken was still feeling uneasy about it. He had made a lot of attempts to heal the past, but there was always something that surfaced. Did it break him? No. Ken was stronger than that mentally. He had experienced a lot of things normal people didn't have to. You could say he had become desensitized to violence and death a long time ago.
Still, he seemed distracted on the outside. The persona he normally held around the Raijin clan would remain, albeit withdrawn to some extent. There was more than one reason for it, however his time to think would come to an end. Ken would catch Leon's form approaching the Lightning Tower, along with a few other stragglers. He would exhale and steel himself again as he opened the door to the car he sat in and began to make his way toward the building with a lit cigarette between his lips.

"Get the fuck up," Baba snarled at the man in front of himself, who might as well have been nothing but a bloody mess by now. He nodded, struggling to his feet and heaving for breaths. "You want to be part of the family, then back up your fuckin' talk. Again!" Baba's fists tightened and his eye widened as he walked toward the younger man who stared at him through swollen, blackened eyes.
The man charged, making one last swing that was easily sidestepped, and Baba retaliated by palming his face and pushing him down to the ground, abusing his footing to floor him. By the time he hit the ground, he was out. Baba just looked down at him and sighed, shaking his head. As he pulled off the now blood-soaked shirt and tossed it to another nearby man, he seemed to go over the... "quality" of the men provided to him with the formation of his own family.
This was going to be a long process, and focusing on it left him woefully unprepared for what was coming.

As he approached the tower, Leon would be denied entry by two guards at the front he wouldn't recognize. "State ID and intent," one of the men spoke up. A balding man, clearly aging faster than his body might like, large in form and clearly somewhat imposing. At his side, a younger man with a black mohawk, considerably smaller in size. Both wore black suits and hid their eyes with sunglasses. After speaking, the larger man looked over at the people beside Leon, and grinned. "In fact, ID and intent for all you fucks." Ayden, Drake, Yun, Lorelai, and Ken were now questioned as well.
Inside, after exiting the training room, two men began to approach Baba from opposite ends of the hallway. "Hey Cyclops. You don't belong here."

Leon's eyes furrowed at being denied entry. He looked at the others here and just kind of waved a hand as he walked back away from the door. His hand wave had one meaning, and only one execution for it.
"Take care of these fucks"
He would of responded to a few of them, that it was just a gathering point to go ahead and start the investigations and induct Ken into a family, but now... It was time to handle other business. Very pressing matters at hand.

"If you're trying to fuck with me, now's not such a good time," Baba looked to the two men with a smile. Cracking his knuckles, he quickly came to the decision that he wasn't going to let these guys make the first move. So, he'd step toward whichever one was moving toward him quicker, and try to slam him into a wall with a tackle. Whoever these people were, they were clearly not Raijin. And if they were, they were either onto him, or they were starting their own coup bullshit. Either way, he had no time, nor patience, for this shit.

Yun chuckled as the man made demands of Leon. He lit a smoke in preparation of what was about to happen. And sure enough just like that Leon had given the signal. He let out the smoke cloud as he approached beside Leon to the big guy.
"Listen, my boss doesn't have time for your bullshit."
And that was the only warning the man would get as Yun slammed his heel down on the middle of the dudes foot, and then he would attempt to jam the lit cigarette into the big man's eye!

Drake smiled at the hand motion and made a quick motion to pull out his bokken and smash mr mohawk's knees!

Ken would waste little time. He trusted Leon's judgement. He had missed the words spoken, but he understood the leader's gestures. He would eye the lobby briefly, before he kicked off in a dash.
He would look to avoid the front entrance and instead approach from the right side, jump and look to dropkick one of the plate glass windows. There w.as enough people by the entrance, Ken wanted to get inside as soon as possible. If he made it through the glass, he would attempt to push further into the lobby.

Ayden sighed through his face mask before looking up at the balding man. He charged forward before attempting to throw a haymaker at the man's temple with his good arm. It was going to happen one way or another, so he might as well speed up the process.
"This is becoming a real hassle again, Boss!"

Lorelai cocked one eyebrow and gave a shake of her head. Two enemies, way more than two allies. It seemed everybody had a target as was. She wanted to follow Ken into the building and watch his back, just to be another body with him (and Leon?), but those weren't the orders she was given.
She turned and caught sight of Yun and Ayden going for the bald man. There was only one person - Drake - going after the one with a Mohawk. So as Drake dropped low, she stepped forward to swing high. She went straight for the man's throat with a single jab, hoping he couldn't dodge both dangerous attacks simultaneously.
