"But the incidents have occured near the British Embassy and so we were able to convince the Japanese government to let us operate on a limited basis. Officially, we are sending a few experts to assist the newly formed APD in Japan. Unofficially...Sargeant Celes?"
Victoria nodded and stood up, a grim look in her eyes.
"I am ready, sir," she declared firmly.
"MI5 has some operatives in the area that will support your investigation," the commander said. "Try to avoid entangling yourself with the heathens if you can. That is what our official agent is there for...of course...they're going to know that we sent someone."
"At least they're not papists," somebody muttered. Victoria rubbed her neck as she silently agreed with that.
"We think there are two groups of FREAKS here," the commander continued. "One of these break-ins was characteristically violent. The other set of criminals avoided any sort of permanent harm to the civilians."
"So we are looking for one set that is killing for fun and another that is stealing blood for need," Celes said, accepting that description.
"That is correct," the commander said. "Dismissed."
