"Leon," Travis called out to his brother, "you think we'd be right to just hop to Japan? Wouldn't need any protection?" Leon was about to answer when he looked up to the sky. Travis did the same to see a missile flying overhead. He barely had time to see if the other people he was with noticed before it struck. "Get down!"

Jun Kazama was busy training outside of the city, taking the oppotunity to take her mind over the recent events with Travis and Nancy. It was...interesting, she thought, but not something she wanted to dwell on right now. Emptying her mind, she resumed her martial arts until she saw a flash of light in her mind, the explosion rising up into a mushroom cloud. Her reaction was to run, to do something, but the horror of what she saw was too much for her to bare.

"And that's basically it," Reiko said. "Shadowlaw cloned me, I worked for them, then the gang, and now I'm here." As Rei thought about what she was told Reiko's eyes noticed the television. "Hey cool, maybe the wrestling is on." Before Rei could stop her she switched it on, seeing that there was news on. It was a special report on Mexico City being blown up and how there were other cities where nuclear attacks were occuring. "Fuck me." Even Rei seemed rattled by the news. A flash of light shook her out of the shock she was in. "Look out!"

"Huh?" Nancy was already out of the car, running in with a package in her hands. "Yeah, okay," she said, not hearing what Rose said. She entered to see a crowd around a television.

"Nancy, you heard?" Before she could reply the news was given to her. "Nukes all around the country." Nancy was about to ask when she felt the shockwave that could only have been a nuclear missile.

Sofia was listening to a portable radio at the news, still looking over what was left of Mexico City. "Who did this?" she wondered out loud. "Interpol?" The Russian giant wondered about the wisdom of being this close to a nuclear area, when she dropped the radio at the flash of light to shield her eyes, her other hand instinctively clutching at her body.

Adam was on a plane flying over America when it happened. He could see the mushroom clouds down below and, his body numb, reached inside a pocket.

"Missile loose! Missiles loose!" Mina did not like this news at all, it meant they had failed. The tanks were not able to stop the nukes and the airstrike would be too late. They were all going to die.
