"We can clear them out in a day, if we push as fast as we can."  Aika thought about it.  "You know, we stopped halfway through the Shopping District the other day, and even though we had only completed three of the five stages, talking to others made it clear that the Fangs were on the retreat by that point.  Maybe..."  It did seem out of place to apply game logic to their current situation, but...they<em>were</em>in a game, nonetheless.  "Makes me wonder if they'll only react to our own action.  You know?"  They were the players making the choices about where to go and what to do - all the game could do was react to them.  "Let's agree that when we go up against the Riders, we'll repeat what we did yesterday with the Fangs."<br/><br/>The Tennin did recognize one key difference; the Fangs were more or less your typical street gang - the Riders, as their name implied, were a motorcycle gang...but even they had to have a hideout<em>somewhere</em>.  Some place from which Tobei ruled over them like an emperor of ages past.  Those cycles, though, they changed the game a little bit.  "Next chance we get, let's check back in with our friends at the convenience store.  Maybe they'll have more information."
