Dad got up and smiled amiably at the yellow fox thing in front of him, then waved and dropped through a sewer grate.

Mima's Antiques - Tokyo, Japan ((@Mima))
The agent was taken back by the appearance of the shop owner. She looked young at first glance, possibly some little girl who was really into LARPing if the ridiculous costume was any indication. However, Leon S. Kennedy knew that looks were deceiving. He looked into the girl's eyes and noticed they weren't any kind of green. These ones seemed to glow with an unnatural energy. And that voice wasn't one of a child, but of some mature woman who had seen much in her life. Without a doubt, this was a character.
Most likely the woman, or magician, was native to this area in the same regards as Leon was. A lot of characters returned to the place of their creation or the place of their nationality. Mario, for example, returned to Nintendo to become the new CEO while Master Assassin Ezio Auditore returned to Italy, got drunk, and promptly got arrested for sleeping with a police chief's fiance. Leon hesitated for a moment longer before sighing. It didn't really matter where she was from, he realized. He took note of her apathetic demeanor and turned to look back at the antiques.
SCAE had need of good characters willing to help the world take care of unruly characters, but before Leon could work on recruiting and the stupid paperwork behind all that, he needed to soothe things over with the boss. The man wasn't misogynistic, but he had terrible luck with all women, forcing him to become a bit of a cynic. Being Asian, the boss would probably enjoy something tiny, like a cat or something... The man picked up a small maneki-neko statue and scoffed at how trivial it looked. Perhaps this would suffice. He turned to the counter and plopped it down next to the register.
"How much for this cat?" he grunted, obviously uncaring of what it really was or what it stood for.
Leon thought he could hear explosions in the distance, but he shook his head. If there was really an explosion, he would hear sirens not too far behind. He scoffed and returned his attention to the shop owner. Still, there was something out there that kept drawing his attention to the street just outside the shop. Was it... deserted all of a sudden?

Downtown - Tokyo - Japan
John sprinted into the store, looking for the key to his plan. He found it; propane. He grabbed the biggest one he could find, and sprinted for the door.
As he ran past the cashier, John threw a wad of money at him. It was a little much for the tank, but time was of the essence.
John ran back to the street with the propane tank, seeing the man jump down the hole.
He dropped the tank down the hole, pulled out his .45, and fired.
BOOOOM

It is a commonly known fact that all Jurassic Park dinosaurs had been apprehended by the UN, as they were classified "Highly Dangerous to Human Society", and were currently undergoing genetic studies in Paris- indeed, Dad was also intended to be captured, but given his physical and mental traits it was proving a difficult task. It is also known that many dinosaurs escaped capture by pulling the old "being flushed down the toilet" trick- before UN captures began, those who could afford a dinosaur pet would flush the baby dinosaur down the toilet in an attempt to evade fines and imprisonment. And thus, it was not surprising that the sewers of many cities were home to many a band of Microceratops or something.
However, what certainly was surprising was the explosion behind the fleet of police cars, revealing Dad straddling a panicked and very confused Velociraptor like a cowboy, tie fasionably turned into a rudimentary lasso. The flames only served to aggravate the predator, and it screamed and barked as it fled away from the flames and deeper into the city.

______________________________
As the man was on his feet again, Renamon was going to run towards him to act as a diversion for the armored man, but the bald man waved at her and jumped to the sewers leaving the fox totally confused. When the armored man asked her where the smily guy went she said "He.. just jumped into the sewers".
Then the armored guy threw a gas tank to the hole and firing to it making an geiser of fire. Even more confusing on the back of the whole madness, the vixen saw how the bald guy managed to escape by riding a reptile from the sewers.
Since the whole situation finally calmed down, Renamon went to help the injured people using her digivice to heal the wounds, it costed almost two thirds of what was storaged in it, but it was for a good cause. After she finished healing the people and characters, the fox walked towards armored guy "Hey, how are you holding up?" after saying that she lifted her paw to try shaking hands with him and continued "My name is renamon".

Have you ever crossed the line between sanity and madness? You would be amazed by what lies beyond the fog..

Chinatown - Manhattan - United States
Snake came up to the two stalls selling fresh seafood. As usual, they were bragging how their fish was fresher and was a better bang for the buck. Ignoring the two men shouting over each other, Snake proceeded down the street to find the store two stalls down. The store was different from those that surrounded it in the sense that unlike the outdoor stalls that the other shops had, this store was a traditional building with a door for an entrance. The store was made of concrete like the surrounding stores but it was separate from the rest as it was not connected in any way. Other than that, it was a rather plain looking building in Manhattan. Walking up to it, Snake opened the door and heard the bells jingle.
The moment he opened the door, Snake felt as if he had been transported to another world. The inside smelled faintly of a bouquet of flowers. The floors were a bright laminated wood tilework design. The walls were painted a sky blue in stark contrast to the dark colors of the rest of Manhattan. Again in contrast were the contents and wares stocked in the shop. On tables and shelves were stocked with various weapons, equipment, and supplies. The wares were fit to supply a small army for a long time. Looking around, Mr. Min's mention of knowing that he had the right place was spot on. Snake couldn't have mistaken this place even if he had survived being drugged, tortured, and interrogated by the Russians. Bringing his eyes down to the figure that stood behind the counter at the back, he was greeted by a warm, radiant smile from a young girl with brown hair.
*** "May I help you?" The young girl, presumably Recette, chimed.
*** "Actually..." Snake said slowly, "I was wondering if you had any information on Characters being hunted down by some unnamed organized crime syndicate. Other than that, I was wondering if you knew of anything on that unnamed organization as well."

Dad was straddling a panicked and very confused Velociraptor like a cowboy, tie fashionably turned into a rudimentary lasso. The flames only served to aggravate the predator, and it screamed and barked as it fled away from the flames and deeper into the city.
"What the fuck?"
The scene was as if it was a cartoon. John was about to chase after the strange man, but it looked as if the fight was over.
The vixen walked up to him and said, "Hey, how are you holding up?"
She raised her paw up to shake John's hand, "My name is Renamon".
John met the paw with his hand, "My name is John."

Mima's Antique Shop-Japan
Mima made a little smirk. That little cat had brought her quite some good luck, as it was magically enchanted by Marisa herself. She always hated to see these things go, and they brought back good memories from the past.
"Interested in the little lucky cat? It's about 100 years old, but I'll cut you some slack. It'll be about 4000 yen, if that's fine with you." Mima said, her feet forming back into her tail.

Sometimes when you're driving down a road, a bug hits your windshield. It's ugly and unpleasant, but you just activate the wipers / cleaning fluid and it's gone in a few seconds. It's just part of driving down the road. You don't dwell on it, because that'd be silly. Bugs aren't worth the time.
You just discard their guts and keep on driving.

Downtown Tokyo, Tokyo City, Japan
Time: 1:15 PM
Yuuka saw the armored soldier and the vixen battle the man. For an average-looking man, he was able to hold his ground against both while grinning like a madman.
Oh jeez, Yuuka thought, this guy's lunatic.
But another thought came into Yuuka's mind. It was her desire to leave the hecticness of this city and get away to somewhere quieter, a place where she can grow her own arboretum without any distraction, as well as find a way to get back to Gensokyo. She would have to get in contact with Yukari to do so. While the armored soldier and the vixen continued to struggle against the monster, Yuuka slipped through the circle of crowd towards SCAE building. Perhaps there she can find a way to get out of here and live a peaceful, temporary life in the outside world.

After shaking Renamon's "hand", John noticed that the girl in plaid was trying to slip by unnoticed.
(I still need to ask her about those Neo-Yakuza members. She might know something on the organization's whereabouts.)
He briskly walked toward her and raised his voice to speak. "Wait, I need to ask you some questions."
