A WARM Interruption.

Thanks to Defruon for helping write this out!

Thane immediately pushed Ai away as the wall blows up and everyone in the hall turned to see a figure through the smoke.

“We are WARM, to all your poor characters, who want to get out of your enslavement, we are here to help you. We are here to rescue you.” A Belo Betty one of the commanders of the Revolutionary Army form One Piece shouts into the hall. Many people enter behind her, mostly women, who hold small weapons like knives or are raising their fists ready to fight.

Not one of the characters from any of the guests is moving to the intruders. Only two of RealDreams characters are running to them, a Lumine from Genshin impact and Saumus.

“They must be modded to obey every command.” Betty growled angrily. “Lets save our fellow brothers and sisters” she shouted, the intruders running towards guests.

Ai felt scared, she took a step back and tried to hide but she felt a hand grab her wrist. "Let me go!" Ai struggled.

"Wait! I'm here to rescue you!" She recognised that it was Leia from Star Wars.

"I'm not going with you!" Ai pulled harder.

"He's brainwashing you!" Leia tried to explain.

Just as Leia was about to pull Ai away to the broken wall, a hand grabs Ai's wrist.

"I believe this girl doesn't want to come with you" Tyson said and punched Leia in the face knocking her back. Tyson looks to Ai as Leia looses grip of Ais arm and runs off when another guard was coming over.

Ai looked at Tyson. "Where's Thane?" She asked, trembling.

"I don't know, but I bet he knows how to defend himself. Let's get you to safety" he said, pointing at the other end of the hall, where most guests and characters are hiding from the attackes. "Rosalina is there too."

Ai nodded. "I hope he's okay." She looked worried, she spotted Samus fighting another girl she didn't recognise, blonde with bun?

The girl simply dodged Samus' attacks, she then ran off.

With Ai by his side, Tyson made his way to the other guests.

Betty watched the fight and bites on her finger. 'We don't have much more time. The police should be here soon.' She thought.

"You know it's not nice to crash a party." Ethan was behind her, his suit smoking from the blast, thankfully his chakra cloak protected him.

She turns around, and aimed a kick to his stomach.

An arm made of energy stopped her leg. "Geez rude" Ethan glared and pushed her leg away. "Sour because no one wants you?" Ethan taunted, his eyes red with anger.

"I will fight for the freedom of any man and women who are held captive by rich suckers like you. I always choose the path of freedom." Betty proclaimed.

Ethan ran over and tried to grab her but she backed away. "Bla bla bla." Ethan glared.

Betty wasn't much of a fighter without her devil fruit powers, she couldn't really support any of her fellow fighters, she was just the strategic mind of her forces.

Thankfully one of the characters who was defending her comes to her rescue.

"How about fighting someone your own strength" challenged an Android 18 who appeared in front of Ethan and threw a punch at his face.

Ethan grabbed her hand, stopping the punch cold "Funny you should say that... You tried to hurt my Ai, I'm not gonna forgive that." Ethan squeezed harder then 18 expected.

"Ahhh" cries Android 18. "You fucker." She tried to get her arm out of his grip.

While the two fight, Betty backed off a little. She put a finger to her ear. "We have to fall back, the police will be here soon." She shouted.

The attackers inside the hall started to fall back. Some have characters in their arms or dragging them along. Some of them seem to be ****.

The guards prioritized on the kidnapped characters, some were saved, some were taken away.

Ethan grabbed 18's other arm when she tried to punch him again, he may have bruised left arm, he noticed that the rest of WARM was retreating. "... Fucking hell." Ethan growled as he looked at 18 who headbutted him "SONOVA!" Ethan cursed but didn't let go.

'Even that's not enough to loosen his grip!' 18 thought to herself.

Most of WARM had left of the hall. Police sirens could be heard in the distance, coming closer.

"18, we have to go" Betty called out, she was in front of a few cars which are parked right before the wall as an escape method.

Ethan's mask broke and his eyes glowed. "You're not getting away." Ethan's energy arms wrapped around 18, strong enough to keep her still. Two more arms tried to grab Betty.

Betty ducks under them and get into the car. One of the arms hits a girls, how dragged along a Deanerys from Game of thrones. She runs back inside immediately and the girl gets into another car.

18 couldn't get out of his grip. 'Fuck it.' She thinks to herself and expelled as much energy as possible. She was able to free herself from the energy arms. With an angry glare at him, she ran to the last car and gets inside.

Ethan just watched, sighing as he looked at his ruined suit and made a note to apologize to Coco, he made his way to the other guests and found Ai, who rushed towards him and hugged him tightly. Ethan looked at Tyson and nodded at him in thanks.

Tyson pulled Rosalina closer to him. "You ok?" he asked Ethan, Ai and Rosalina.

Ethan touched his face, remembering he didn't have his mask anymore. "Fine, just upset." He responded as he hugged Ai who nodded into Ethan's chest.

"Thats good to hear." Tyson sighed.

About a minute later some police officers enter the hall.

The next 30 minutes were a boring, Ethan had to give his testimony as to what characters were leading the charge.

Some guests were giving testimonies to help get their own characters back.

After the police left, the guests were told to wait, some RealDreams employees came on the stage and made an announcement. ,"We apologize for this incident, for compensation, we will be offering you one free character coupon on your way out." The representative spoke through the microphone.

Everyone filled out of the Hall, guests were getting a coupon each.

Ethan was waiting with Ai as they were giving out coupons... He was thinking on who to get. He looked at Ai who looked very beautiful but was scared.

Ethan kissed her cheek. "It'll be okay."

"Hey!" Someone called out behind them, the two turned and saw Tyson and Rosalina coming over. "I hope you don't mind us waiting with you?" Tyson asked.

Ethan gave a small smile. "Not at all." Ethan was a bit more... Gentle without the mask, Tyson noticed this.

"Well... that was not what I expected. You were a good fighter" Tyson says and Rosalina nods eagerly.

Ethan chuckled and rubbed the back of his head. "Yeah... I've been training with some of my girls."

"Cool, maybe I will get some training down too. Now I have to see about my girls. Its hard to believe so many characters were getting kidnapped. I even heard about world where "broken" characters are send to."

Ethan nodded. "... Hey I have a friend who works in Rein Corp, he has characters that he's giving away." He explained as he took out a card that James gave him and he gave it to Tyson.

"Thanks... so he is someone who throws characters away? he asks confused and look at the card.

"No he got into a..." Ethan paused for a moment. "Incident and a lot of characters who didn't have owners were involved." He explained.

"Oh ok... well I till think about it, thanks. Do we see each other at the SHH tomorrow in the evening?" Tyson asks him as a limo for Thane and Ai arrives.

Ethan looked at the limo for a moment before he looked at Tyson. "Tomorrow evening is still on." Ethan smiled.

Ai gave Rosalina a smile and bowed. "It was nice meeting you."

Rosalina smiles at the beautiful Ai. "It was really nice, I will send you a message when I get my phone" Rosalina says and hugs Ai.

Ai hugged back and pulled away, Ethan got in the limo with Ai and drove off.

Ai took a breathe. "This was an intense first date..."

"Yeah... Sorry." Ethan apologized but Ai hugged him.

"Don't blame yourself..." She smiled.

"I saw Tyson taking you away so I knew you were safe." Ethan explained, rubbing the back of his head.
