#There will be a recap at the end of the day, these posts pretty much catch you up though
"Well...that might be for the best..." confessed Kagura.

#I'm going to sleep. I'll put up the setting tomorrow, but the survivors are moved to the GADC HQ.
#As many as you can capture/afford
Location: Government Anti-Demon Corps Headquarters, Downtown Fujino, Underground.
The Facility was huge and expansive.
The survivors were in the A section of the infirmary:
Rana is still sleeping.
Sadaharu and Stefan's legs have been healed completely.
Mahlo is still getting therapy for his arm and ribs.
Jase, Derrick, and Imire are pretty much fine.
Meanwhile, hiding in her house, Trish waited until the Jackal fell for her trap. She had a few serious scrapes and bruises, but she had managed to bandage them all up with some spare clothes so she stopped losing blood for the moment. She also managed to get a few good hits on the Jackal, injuring its leg and nose, but Trish knew that she couldn't take it on in a straight fight especially with its electrical powers.
#Since its easier this way, just assume everyone but Trish is in this room with Lieutenant Kagura and Commander Tatsuki
"Oh hi Sadaharu-Senpai, I'm glad we both made it out of that mess..." replied Rana with a smile.
"So your name is Rana," said the commander with a smile as he turned and faced Sadaharu and the others.
"I'm Commander Keida Tatsuki, leader of the Anti-Demon Corps, nice to meet you all, I'm sure you have questions, I and Lieutenant Kaguara will do our best to try and answer them."
"Well...we were on the train and we had all gotten this strange app." Sadaharu pulls out his phone and shows it to the commander. "It played a very disturbing video before the whole train crashed. When we woke, we tried to gather survivors but only our group had made it out alive, or at least that's what we thought. We tried to get to safer location, but we ended up running into a connivence store when we saw that bird monster."
"We decided one of us would distract it while the others ran to safety." Sadaharu glances at Rana, "The one who was supposed to come after all of us had safely made it to the narrower streets, decided to go and lead the monster even further away from us, which led to most of our panic and...then that's when we met you guys."
#I don't care what you do Photon, but I'm not explaining twice.

"This event is called the Cataclysm. It was predicted to occur many times in the past all over the world. The Mayans, the Aborigines, the Shang Dynasty, the Jōmon...they all predicted this day would come. As history has progressed, the influence of monsters and demons has been attributed to less and less as science and technology has proved to be more convincing. However, their is some reality to these myths. The realms of humanity and demons are colliding, and the only way we can fight back is with these..." explained Commander Tatsuki, holding up Rana and his phone.
"The Japanese government has been working on a device to harness and control these Demons so that humanity has a fighting chance. What you all have on your phone's is a leaked older version, embedded into the popular joke site by an unknown hacker. Regardless, without the proper training, it merely provides another avenue for the demon's to infiltrate. However, with what is coming next, we'll need all the help we can get."
"Partially," replied the Commander, "Although I'd rather not involve Civilians, the situation we are now in calls for desperate tactics. However, just because the owner is dead, does not mean there phones will stop summoning demons."
Rana slid out of bed and hopped onto her feet.
"If there is any way I can help, count me in," she claimed.
