Crisis adverted. Sailor V stepped off the ship and walked down the docks with Artemis at her side. She watched Fukari go off ahead before stopping by Demetrios and Kyrie's side as they were waiting for some symbol of authority to greet them at the docks.

They wouldn't have to wait much longer. As Aminee stepped off the ship Kain stepped onto the docks with two Kari guards as escorts as he looked over each person. His eyes going up and down Demetrios, then Kyrie, Sailor V and finally the cat before moving on to the people near the back of the docks and the ship. His facial expression was hardened and left little signs of what he was thinking as he looked to Demetrios.
"You all look like hell."

So this was the man in charge? Demetrios showed little concern for the squabbles going on around them, casting a quick glance at either of the guards, before stepping forward to address the leader who had come before them. His helmet pulsed with azure light and dematerialised from around his head, shrinking away piece by piece. The Dread Seraph's blazing eyes met Kain's, seeming in that instant to speak of the horrors they'd dealt with getting here.
"Sir, you have no idea."

[Maelys] [Innocence form]
He walked down onto the dock from the ship in the white robes of his child form. The squabbling was lost on him, since he didn't know about the relations between countries, but he gathered enough to realize he should stay out of the fighting if it broke out. His face held no emotion, he was waiting for his chance to speak up. He finally did so when an apparent authoritative figure approached the group.
"The demon army has attacked its next target already. My sister has been injured in the fight..."
He glanced over at Kain, wondering how he would respond.

So Kain was still around. Jeho remembered him during his reign as Jherra's god but after losing his position he did not know what Kain had been doing or how Kari was managing as a nation. By the look of it both were doing much better now. He approached the others and looked towards Kain.
"I am Sir Jeho of Aircano. The Netherrealm draws near and we need to discuss a plan of defense when they get here."
He thought it best to conceal his identity for now. Lord Yahweh carried much weight in the world and triggered both positive and negative responses. It wasn't anything he was willing to risked. Not here and now.

"I'm sorry," was his response to the child before looking on to the others. He wasn't good with children which is why usually his men are nearby to make sure he didn't make an ass of himself. "We are aware of the situation and have already been preparing. We have gun turrets placed throughout the city specifically designed to take them down. Tanks, VTOLs and armed soldiers alongside the Utopian troops will also be stationed throughout. And whatever more help Ms. Luca Valentine and the Queen of Hallowton decides to send us."
Kain began to walk down the docks certain the others would follow. Aminee already was remaining silent for now as the Kari head spoke. "It will take the demon army several days to make it through the city, the barricades at each entrance slowing them down further. We don't intend for them to make it through at all. Already two of my people have headed for Moon Valley to close the demon seal and cut off their primary advantage in this fight. Since I don't know many of you and don't have the time to see what you're made of, anyone who can fire a weapon will be at the front lines covered by snipers. Anyone who can't, to the shelter where my men can protect you. If the demon army manages to break through the first set of barricades you're to fall back to the buildings behind to strengthen the second. Understood?"

He had been observing and listening for a short time now, making sure he had found the right location. His initial scouting had left little doubt, as aside from the city he had initially been in, Hallowton, this seemed the only one not destroyed or otherwise in less than admirable condition. Its human inhabitants only added a further vote to this being the city he sought. The conversation and activity he witnessed from the ships which had just arrived and their passengers actively confirmed his theory.
He waited until a man that seemed to be in some sort of authority to finish giving what seemed to be orders, before Doctor Fate literally dropped out of the sky, falling down to alight gently on the docks, his cape fluttering about him for a few seconds before it too settled. "I apologize if I am interrupting," he began. "I am called Doctor Fate. I have heard there is a demon army of a sort on its way here. I wish to be of service in repelling or destroying ti, if I may." Perhaps a bit more direct and blunt than he would have liked to make his request, but he felt it necessary to get it out quickly to show he was not a threat.

After Doctor Fate had introduced himself, another new figure made himself known, blurring into sight beside the Doctor. His katana fastened at his left hip, Byakuya cast a vaguely scrutinising glance over the disparate gathering before them, having also been observing the exchange with Fate before they dropped in.
"I am Byakuya Kuchiki," he introduced himself. "The two of us have travelled here from Hallowton. I would also offer my assistance dealing with this threat."
Demetrios settled into step a short distance behind Kain, the clanks of his armoured footfalls audible over the creaking of the wooden boards under his bulk. He listened attentively to Kain's brief plan, certain a more concrete scheme would be devised between now and the arrival of the Netherrealm forces.
One statement of Kain's caught the Ajerian's attention, however; he was sending a contingent into Moon Valley to seal the main hellgate.
"How long have these two people of yours been gone?" he asked. "I have a plan of my own regarding that gate, and they might be of great help to me..."

Kyrie blinked at the first words to come out of Kain's mouth when he approached the group. Was this guy for real? Kyrie followed closely behind as Kain began to walk and explain his plans, only having a vague understanding of what half those things were as they were never used or seen back home before Kain asked his question. "How do you plan to account for the demon army's ability to resurrect when they are slain?" As soon as Kyrie asked that question two more people came on scene offering their services to deal with the demon army causing her to smile. There was no shortage of people willing to help around here.

Once the order came Jehanne's removed her hand from the hilt of her blade and readjusted her stance, though she never entirely dropped her guard as just being among Utopians were enough to make the Aircanane nervous. The soldiers behind them followed Jehanne's lead and stayed closely by Miracle's side all around her to guard her position wherever she moved.

"But what if it doesn't? What if this is a fight we can't win?"
“You can't think like that.”
"Never a dull moment around here, is there?"
“No... No there certainly isn't...”
"Miracle. Keep your weapons sheathed until the real enemy arrives."
"Stand down."
When it looked like Aircano wasn't going to cause another battle Tori stepped off the ship with Shinta, Nex, June, Lily and Mary rejoining at her side with their parents not too far behind and caught up with the others as Kain appeared.
"You all look like hell."
"Sir, you have no idea."
"The demon army has attacked its next target already. My sister has been injured in the fight..."
"I'm sorry."
"I am Sir Jeho of Aircano. The Netherrealm draws near and we need to discuss a plan of defense when they get here."

“Take us to the shelter,” said Tori's father who had red hair, a beard, brown eyes and stood at 6'10. The emerald green eyes came from her mother who had long brown hair. Her older brother, who stood at seven feet in full had green eyes as well with short brown hair and cleanly shaved. “We want our children as far away from the fighting as humanly possible.”
"Where's Edie? I need to speak with her immediately."
“I heard you're looking for me.”
Edie walked up to the Blind Assassin once she left the docks and started down the road, chewing bubblegum in her mouth as she looked towards the Half Demon. Uninterested in the conversation going on at the docks. If there was anything important uttered she'd be briefed on it later.
“Sup?”

"You're right. I can't. I'm sorry." Utena followed Tori and the others off the ship and onto the docks just in time to catch Kain's words. When he talked about those capable of firing a weapon being brought to the front lines Utena decided that was the time to break her silence. "I can wield a weapon sir. It's not a gun but I'm still plenty capable and ready to fight."

"If I may," began Jeho after listening to Kain and allowing the new comers to say their piece. "Perhaps it would be better to escort the Moon Valley refugees to Hallowton. You'll want every resource available to you when the army hits and there may be no time to evacuate if things go wrong this time."

"What of the tower?"
Spoke the High Priestess at long last as she moved up to the others and stood to the right of her god's side.
"When Ranko attacks you can rest assured that she'll make a run for the tower. What defenses have you put up to keep that from happening?"

"I can fire a weapon," answered the Soldier of Truth and Justice. Granted she could do more than that. She could launch beams of energy at the army until they adapted, fight using her chains and unleash her own slashes of holy energy with the blade to her back that she never got to use in the last battle but if that was all Kain needed to know to recruit a person for this fight, then it was all she'd give and he could be pleasantly surprise from there.
