[Seventeenth Note]: [Locked from Hostiles, filtered to DATS, Hyperion, Family, Friends] [Aug 17th]

[Audio clicks on to a short silence before Nick lets out a drawn out sigh and starts speaking.]

Yesterday, Eikichi Onizuka and Duo Maxwell were attacked by the Bloodclan. According to Duo, Scourge the cat had every intent of murdering Onizuka, and very nearly succeeded. They were rescued by Lance, Dist and Jade, but not before dealing severe damage to both of them.

Both are currently in the hospital, Duo is stable and recovering, but Onizuka is...

[Nick trails off in to an uncertain, worried pause]

Onizuka had an undiagnosed aneurysm. It ruptured during the fight. He went through surgery but is still in critical condition.

He's not awake. The doctors... don't know if he's even going to wake up again.

All of this took place just minutes before him and Haku Yowane were supposed to be wed at the Hyperion. At the moment, it's probably best if people don't try to contact her. She's... well, 'in shock' is probably the best way to describe it. She's been mostly verbally unresponsive since it happened.

I know to a lot of you this is upsetting. I know the Bloodclan has been causing trouble for tamers in Neon and Junk City. Onizuka was trying to stop them, and what happened last night was very obviously revenge. Whatever happens... do not take this as incentive to go after them. We do not need any more casualties after what happened.

When the time comes we'll find a way to deal with them.

Right now... we're facing a very dark point in our short history as a family here. There are now two of our own in uncertain conditions. If anything needs to happen, its supporting one another through this. And hope that some how we'll all come out alright on the other side.

[Another pause, as if he's wanting to say more, but eventually the comm just shuts off]

I'm going to see how Haku is -- you know, stay for her, stuff like that. If it's at all possible, I'd like some time off to handle my family's problems.

Thank you.

Gang struck again huh? Just like terrorists. Fine. The leader's name is Scourge huh?

[ Someone sounds quite ill. ]

Lovely. Really.

Strikes are thoughts.

Haku...

...if there's anything...anything at all that I can do...

Once again...no matter my skills with technology, I know nothing to help her with this now.

... They will pay for this.

Every last one of them will pay for this. I don't care if they were involved in that attack or not!
