They arrived in sector 4 where the rioters had made their last stand against the Vulture. Imai and 201 were recognizable by only a few people familiar with the small Resistance that formed against the Vulture. Genius was seen as no more than a mere child. As they made their approach Imai turned to the others.
“201 and I will speak with the people. Stay alert. In case things don't work out we'll have to leave Isafaro.”
Imai and 201 walked off and started speaking with the people here while Genius looked around the area. Still able to smell the presence of The Spokesman of Insanity who helped cause this riot in the first place.
“It would seem The Spokesman has unintentionally given us a hand...”

"Oh bother. Rioting. How disrupting." the man says to himself, glancing around distastefully at the mob. Dressed in simple jeans and a t-shirt, the only thing that set the man apart was his silver hair and eyes. He stood at six foot two, and had his hands tucked uncomfortably in his pockets as he looked around. "They even have children here." he says as his eyes pass of the Genius, not placing her as a member of the Resistance. His silver eyes scanned across the crowd of gatherers, taking note of everything that was going on. By no means an ordinary human, he wondered if there were others blending into the crowd, hoping to overthrow the Vulture once and for all.
His booted feet made muffled thumps as he moved through the people, listening to the chatter and gathering what information he could. It seemed as if Vulture had made a move against the Resistance, and this was turning into a last stand. How curious. No matter how long he lived, he was always curious as to the proceedings of history, and this had the hallmarks of being a turning point in the history of Isafaro. "And here I am just trying to investigate the technology here, while these people are fighting for their lives. Perhaps my priorities have gone askew in the past few millenia." he continues to himself, ignoring the odd looks from those who noticed him. After long centuries in his workshops, he had developed the habit of speaking to himself. His fingers dance idly, tapping at his pocket as if he were typing information into a computer. It was just habit at this point, and he wondered what would happen as he began to process it all.

The rioters had complete control of the area. Managing to get their hands on Vulture's weapons and equipment. A couple of people even driving through in one of their basic tanks with the Vulture insignia crossed out via spray paint. Some was reduced to vandalism, breaking through the front window of several shops in the sector and taking what they needed or/and wanted. During all of this the Ex-Soldier would spot Linx in the crowd, giving him a suspicious glance from behind the gas mas. "Who's that?"

The Joker finally managed to get off the rooftop with all those guards trying to stop him. After his "friend" let, he wanted to cause more and more chaos.
Hm... if I were a group trying to overthrow a dictator, where would I be? Oh rats, I can't think of anything logical... oh well, I guess I will just walk around then.
The Joker began to walk around, looking far and wide to find the resistance, if there even is one. He continues to walk in his strut and laughs all the way around the city. Eventually finding a place that he heard call Sector 4.
Hm... is this where the resistance it, I can't really see any of those goonies around.[/i]
Thinking he found the resistance, the Joker began to jump up and down, singing a song he made up. People around him began to look at him strangely, which began to annoy the Joker. So he said loudly
What, haven't you seen a bleached clown happy before? I for one haven't, but have you?
He stopped dancing and singing, and began to walk away, muttering under his breath.

He still had no clue where he was. All he knew is that it wasn't Earth, or at least not anywhere he was familiar with. And his communicator wasn't working, and had quickly become useless to him, and was now long since discarded. He lifted his head from where he sat, half-wreathed in shadows against a wall, and stared listlessly at the rioting and chaos going on. He had no clue what had happened to drive people to this, but....honestly, as long as it didn't involve him or endanger anyone with no part in this, he didn't rightly care at the moment.
He closed his eyes, lowering his head for a moment before he sighed heavily and pushed himself slowly up to stand, with all the energy of a sleeping man, and dusted his pants off. Adjusting the sunglasses over his eyes, more out of habit than anything else, he trudged off aimlessly, hands shoved in his jacket pockets and gaze turned toward the ground, leaving him just barely aware of what was actually going on ahead of him, though he could see ahead well enough not to run into anyone.

Garrus remained cautious as they entered the sector. This was the Spokesman territory and while both Imai and Chloe wanted him, and he had helped them before, there were still many variables they didn't know about and the turian was trained to expect the unexpected. He looked at the rioters, watching the chaos that only the Spokesman could create. As Kragen was lured by one person in particular he spotted the clown with bleach white skin, green hair and a purple suit yelling at some of the people. Garrus Vakarian A union of madness. Best be alert.

"Who's that?"
“None of our concern.”
Olivia led the group through the crowd, keeping tabs on where Imai and 201 were as they were searching for Gabe or any self-appointed leader to join forces with. As they were walking...
"What, haven't you seen a bleached clown happy before? I for one haven't, but have you?"
“I can see subtly isn't your forte,” she told the clown. “Keep that up you'll be dead before sun up.”

His eyes continued to roam, resting for a moment on the Joker. Amusing, and entertaining, if nothing else. He steps for a moment into shadows as he was clear of eyes, before stepping back out, clothed in a jacket over his shirt now, allowing him to hide various weapons and technological assets under it. His attention moved over to the figure before that had been watching him, noting him now for the first time. "Tactical gear and a gas mask. How odd. However, I suppose paranoia knows no bounds in a place like this." he smiles lightly, raising a hand in greeting, noting that it was not just one individual as he'd previously thought, but a group of them. How interesting. Was this perhaps the Resistance?
The Turian also attracted his attention. He'd not seen one of their race in ages, though he wasn't entirely surprised to find one here. The Turians as he recalled were a powerful, militant race, it was only to be expected if one was on Genesis that it would be drawn to Isafaro, the most technologically advanced. Though what attraction he'd find here he wasn't sure of. Compared to the Turians military might, Isafaro seemed rather lacking. "A Turian and a Spec. Ops soldier together. How strange. Perhaps they are they rumored Resistance after all. Or members of Vulture's forces." as the thought crossed his mind, he leaned against the building, crossing his arms as he examined them further, narrowing his eyes as he began to pull detail off them piece by piece.

Kragen studied the clown in purple but he appeared to be more than a common day clown. His skin upon further examination really did look white and not at all something you'd see from make up. Bleach? Either a freak accident or this man took his profession far too seriously. The Ex-Soldier remained silent as Genius addressed the man. Almost finding humor in the irony of her words considering what she was. But the suns were of little concern to vampires in a city covered in darkness.

The Joker was caught up in his little rant when a woman approached him and basically threatens him. The Joker, being himself, couldn't hold his smile back, even though there was one already there. He the bows to the woman, and begins to speak.
"My apologizes my friend, I was just filled with glee and jubilee that I couldn't help myself.
The Joker regains his posture.
"It is just that I may have finally found what I had been looking for, but enough of that, I am guessing that you would like to know who I am? Well, here is my card.
The flicks his wrist and out of his sleeve comes a playing card, with the back facing the woman. He hands it to her, and reveals that is a joker. The Joker faces here and continues to smile like before.

Garrus Vakarian Something tells me you aren't a regular circus clown. That much was obvious. Garrus was pretty sure Isafaro didn't have a circus to begin with. But that General was certainly a clown from some of the reports he had read on the Hallowton attack and the way Red Queen had acted while bombing their base back in the outskirts of town.

Genius looked towards the card with the Joker on it, unimpressed and unamused before looking back up to the clown in the purple suit.
“And that would be?”

Kragen watched as the clown gave Genius a sort of calling card. Joker. So this man called himself The Joker. Fitting. The average Joe wouldn't be able to take him seriously walking around in the manner that he was but Kragen knew better than that. Even appearances could be used as a weapon.

The Joker smiled at the woman, as she questioned his card.
"Can't you tell, I did say this was my card. The name is Joker at your service."
He raised the hand with his card high above his head, and the card slips back down his sleeve. Afterward, the Joker bows yet again..
"As I said before, the name is Joker, at your service."
He stands back up and chuckles a bit.
"So much for nothing up my sleeves."

The rebel turian blinked blankly at the clown and then looked down to where The Genius was still standing facing Joker. Garrus Vakarian I think the bleach has gotten to his head. Said Garrus quietly to his squad mates.
