"Idus Martias" burned, written in flaming, blown out office windows at I2. This was the beginning. As people began to flee the building, the building shuddered, and began to fall. Dust was kicked up around it's base, and as it began to crash, several motorcycles burst through the front door, one, with Ede Reyes on it, also had attached to it a large led case. And then, at 12:01 AM on March 15th, Industrial Illusions, which was celebrating a midnight launch for the set Sub-Zero Vigor, fell.

Hours Earlier...
"Congradulations all around, yes sir." Will said on the phone with Mr. Pegasus, instead of attenting the office party for the release of the newest set. He had been down there, of course, however he was still behind on his work, and still.. was unnerved by the predicament he was in.
He had been avoiding the Abjects for weeks,, mostly due to the fact that he was in fact being observed. Juliet had let Shizuma know, so he was taken care of on that end, however, Will couldn't shake the feeling that his absense was somehow blinding him to something.
Emrys would be off work by now, and Will though about calling her..
BOOM!
A series of runbles ripples through, and for a moment Will was shocked and dazed. No way.. not here. He then lept from his chair under the deck as the windows blew out, and flames shot up the side. Immediatly the alarms sounded and screaming was heard. Will jumped up, himself a little black from the ash, and ran to the windows.
The heat was intense, and he could hardly get near where the flames were licking up. Be as he looked.. there were flames up and down the building, luckily he was near the top floors of the iconic faciliy.
Juliet! With a sudden lurch in his stomach, he realized that everyone was in the building, and who knew who was hurt or not. Juliet, as hard as they were on each other, were still good friends, and Shizuma would never forgive him if she didn't make it out.
He rushed out of his office and headed down to Juliet's office, when he remembered protocol.. he had to get to the top, Ede's office. Besides, Juliet, if she was okay, would also be headed up there. Will ran up and barreled through the door. He still couldn't believe it.
Industrial Illusions was just bombed.

I watched the inferno and blaze and I couldn't help but have a wide smile upon my face.
"O! for a muse of fire, that would ascend the brightest heaven of invention." I said quietly as I watched the chaos going on in the building, my hair whipping around me from the winds that were only feeding the fire more.
"Thank you irony that delivered vengeance upon the facility that spawned that damn fucking school." I said as I did a mocking toast with an invisible glass.

The deafening crash rocked her off her chair where she was slammed to the floor, her ears bleeding. She gripped the floor, trying to keep her consciousness as she started to feel... fire?
No... She blanched. Something had blown up, from the sounds of it on the lower floors.
She could hear dying screams around her and the woman pushed herself up off the floor.
"Ede... Will..." She grunted as she started to crawl along, keeping close to the floor and trying to cover her mouth a bit. She reached into her desk and grabbed her deck, her duel disc and a handkerchief, putting it up to her head, desperately wishing the ringing would stop.
She shut the drawer and then got to her feet, stumbling along. Ede was on the top floor. She had to be told.
