Thursday. 2 days until Zeke's showdown with Sara's capturers. But he couldn't do it alone. He had asked around, and found out when Seth Calloway, leader of Revelation, was at his bar. He walked in, and sure enough, Seth was there. Zeke needed as many people as he could get if he was going to save Sara, so he decided the best thing to do was ask the gang leader for assistance.
"Seth Calloway? I'm Zeke." Zeke said. He then showed the gang necklace. "I'm in your gang. I need help. There's this gang that some of my old classmates formed to hunt me down and kill me, and they kidnapped Sara, my only real close friend, trying to lead me into a deathtrap. They'll kill her if I don't come to their hideout at 9:00 on Saturday, but If I come alone, They'll definitely kill me. Could you help me out?"
Zeke was out of options. He desperately needed help.

Being the inheritor of a bar meant many things. For one, it meant you never had to drink alone, as there was many people who would be happy to drink with you regardless of your personality as long as they got free drinks, though Seth had never had any trouble making friends. The only problem was, he had no desire to make friends at the moment, which meant he had the stools next to him cleared in order to drink in peace. However, a voice from behind him soon put an end to that moment.
While Seth had not recruited Zeke himself, he made it a point to remember as many of his own members as he could. It went a long way in keeping things running smoothly and efficiently, though it was virtually impossible to remember every single member in the gang. However, he was aware of this one, as it was one of the few who Mae-Lim had managed to recruit herself. He listened patiently to what Zeke had to say, occasionally taking a drink from his beer, or taking a drag from his cigarette, until the boy was finished. For a moment, he remained silent, pondering just what to do, weighing the potential benefits and consequences of helping him. There was a potential loss of manpower, but the gain in reputation would likely make up for it.
Probably. Or if he was lucky, a problem he was having would manage to solve itself, hitting two birds with one stone.
"Alright. Just give me a second."
He whipped his phone out of his pocket, searching through the list of names until he came upon the perfect man for the job. The phone rang a few times, which was slightly annoying to the gang leader, though he gave no outward notice of this fact, before it was picked up.
"Conner. Grab Bear and get down to the bar. I've got work for you."
Without even waiting for a response, Seth snapped the phone shut and put it back in his pocket. All that was left now was to wait for the Horseman of War to get there, then things could be settled quickly.

Recently joining Revelation, Aden now knew of The Lion’s Tooth, the group’s main headquarters. Willing to take himself there, he exited his house. It was chilly out, making Aden have to wear his jacket or a red long sleeve. A he walked through the snow in his sneakers, the amount that attached began to melt, seeping in through the holes and reaching his socks. Shaking the snow off, trying to prevent any more water damage to his feet; Aden continued his way to the bar.
Finally reaching the bar, Aden knocked any excess snow off the bottom of his shoes and opened the door, to reveal the inside of the building. Walking around, getting to know the place, Aden headed for an empty stool near the bar. There were two already seated, but Aden couldn’t make then out with their backs turned.
Taking the seat, Aden watched as he was handed an alcoholic beverage. His recruiter mentioned this to him. Free to anyone in the gang. Aden smiled and accepted the drink, but merely put it to the side. It wasn’t that he wasn’t willing to try, but he was just not up for it at the moment.
As he sat in his seat it was easy to hear the conversation taking place beside him. Aden to a glance over to notice someone he didn’t recognize, obviously another member, and Seth, the one who recruited Aden into the gang. The unknown character was one with a particularly interesting dilemma. Aden listened to his please as he put his head on his arms and stared at the liquor behind the bar. The man’s friend was held hostage? That was new to Aden. He always saw the crimes on the news; murder, theft, etc, but he was never around it much.
Seth listened to the man, as he asked for help, not talking, as if he was thinking about it, trying to decide whether or not he would help. After finally agreeing, he lifted his phone to his ear, calling other members of revelation. Aden lifted his head back up, looking in Seth’s direction. With his eyes dull, he addressed Seth.
“Nice to see you again. I’m always up for the good deed, if you want the help,” Aden said now addressing the man.

Zeke was never more glad that he had joined revelation than now. Seth agreed to help him, which made things look a whole lot better for him. So far 3 people, not counting the possible addition of Seth himself, were already going to join him. Conner, Bear, and a man Zeke hadn't met before, who was willing to help save Sara.
"Thanks a lot," Zeke said to both of them. "You have no idea how much this means to me!"
It was then that Dante Onferni stood up. He had aparently recovered from his injuries, and he walked over to Zeke.
"Zeke, if you think you're doing something this dangerous..." Dante said. He continued: "...you had better count me in!"
So that made 4, possibly 5. Hopefully more would offer to help, because that still wasn't quite enough.

Conner lounged atop the stained couch in his dorm room, watching the same half dozen music videos over and over again. Apparently, the music channel here couldn't find any othe metal music videos for today. Or any other week, when it was metal day. Goddamn selling out.
The Horseman of War contemplated changing the station, when he began to heard a section in the Slipknot song he had never heard before. It was faint and it sounded alot like...girl pop music? At first, Conner was at a complete loss, confused beyond belief as he shifted his eyes back and forth in the room as if searchng for an answer.
Strange enough, it fell upon a pink piece of plastic, with its own music coming from it. Conner groaned as he pushed himself off the couch, staggering towards the object. As he picked it up, he remembered that he stole it from that girl in class, the day he ripped off Ein's lips. Good times, good times. He did give Seth the number as a way to contact him. Funny that he forgot he left it on this charger for weeks on end without use.
"Yeah?"
Seth spoke quickly, wasting no time in hanging up before Conner could say anything. Not that he would've anyway, as Conner followed suitely. He flipped the phone open once again, thinking to call Bear until he realized he didn't have the man's number. Guess it was time to play phone tree...damn.
After giving Bear a call, Conner would make his way over to the Lion's Tooth. He opened the door, walking through to spot a few people he recognized before walking over to where Zeke stood. He searched around again, looking for Bear but not spotting him yet.
"Yo, where's Pocahontes?"

As soon as Conner had asked that question,Bear kicked the door open.On his back was a big white sack. "Right here,you ugly sonva bitch"
It was bulging with what looked like weapons.He strode over to the others and poured the bag onto the ground.A Myriad of pipes,baseball bats,Pieces of timber and other heavy impromtu weapons fell to the floor.
Bear reached down and picked out a baseball bat with screws screwed into the tip for a bit of extra damage. "Take your pick,ladies." he said confidently,balancing his weapon in his hand.He turned to Seth. "I've been collecting" he said,smiling.

Kayar stepped over, choosing a harmless-looking staff. A walking stick. Hah, that was putting it nicely, he could easily beat someone's head in with it. He'd been watching from a table in the back. Stereotypical, of the silent guy to sit in the back like that, but Kayar didn't care, he liked to be dramatic.
"I'm in, this sounds fun."
He spun the staff around a bit, being careful not to hit anyone or a table. You can't ever say a gamer doesn't take time to mess around with sticks, pretending they're swords and whatnot. Kayar had done plenty of that in his time, and though he knew his flashy spins couldn't really do too much, they were only for looks after all, he also knew he could definitely do some damage with it.
"So where exactly is this gang?"

Conner, Bear, Kayar, Seth, the boy whose name he didn't know... that made 5. The gang was rather large, so he probably needed more. Seth could probably provide some extra manpower.
He then remembered that the address of the warehouse was on the back of the tape.
"Ah... here it is..." Zeke said, pulling out the tape. He read the address of the warehouse aloud.
"Alright, two days from now, at 9:00, they'll expect me to be there. We're going to be in for a big fight, and they have a hostage. A girl named Sara. We're going to need to get her out of harm's way first, or they might kill her."

(OOC: Sorry for lame post.)
Aden watched as multiple Revelation members walked into the bar, two being invited by Seth and another arriving by chance. Aden was amused as one of the members walked in with a large array of weapons. Aden took the invite to grab one for himself. He grabbed a metal pole, just in case. He was one to fight with his hands, but when the numbers sounded like they would be against them; it was always nice to have a backup.
Aden hadn’t properly introduced himself to anyone in the group, yet. The only one that actually knew him was Seth only because he was the one who had recruited him. Turning from bear, thanking him for the weapon, Aden turned towards the rest of the group.
“It’s Aden, by the way.”
Two days was a while away. Aden wasn’t sure what he was supposed to do until then except be properly in shape for the fight that was sure to take place. It would be Aden’s first large scale fight, rather than the one-on-one he was accustomed to.
