Anna says as the plane touches down. "Any landing you can walk away from," Cosmo says, unbuckling from his seat and heading for the ramp. VinceYou tear along the streets, coming up on Methesda by the ground.  You burst over the gates and fence, triggering the auto cannons perched on the towers.  But you're too fast, and the cannons miss wildly, tearing up a good deal of the gates in the process.  You see Thunder by the door and the EPIC Jet land hard on the ground, making you happy you weren't in it. ChinaKevinOne gang member, the youngest of the ones coming at you, looks a bit unsure, but the others move to surround you and he quickly follows suit. "The Red Rose Syndicate doesn't fear your English family," the gang leader laughs, further bolstering the thugs. The gang members stalk in.  You figure you'll get one quick shot in before they start swinging... Your bluff failed badly, but you wonder how they know you if they aren't intimidated by your family name.  You have a half action remaining. Raisa, X12Raisa stalks up behind Master Wen, making the two thugs rather wide eyed.  You can't be entirely sure, but that one on the left looks oddly familiar... like you've seen him before.  But you can't quite place where.  Regardless, they both seem rather disinterested in confrontation suddenly.  That is compounded when Li and Carl come from the garden, and X12 and Xi exit the dojo.  There is a sudden explosion from the docks in town and a small mushroom cloud. Master Wen looks suitably angry.  "Raisa, you remove them from Master Wen's home.  All others, go to town, chase gang off!  And find Kevin!" That prompts the thugs into action.  One fires up his bike no problem and floors it, tearing out of the courtyard, but the one Raisa recognizes can't get his going.</blockquote>
