Apparently Ubon didn't have time to hide, or shift forms, and instead simply pressed up against a nearby wall.  As Alice sits down, she can spot something outside her window... and probably the reason Ubon wasn't doing anything: a rotorcraft drone phased into view, a long barreled gun pointed right at Ubon... thing is, it didn't have the usual Honk Kong Special Police emblazoning.  The door was opened, then<em>kicked</em>open, and in came the woman from the front door, clad in SWAT gear with a tricked out and sound-suppressed assault rifle aimed directly at her.  What followed next was a series of three smaller hover rotary-wing drones with more concealed barrels of guns, but still armed none the less... all were silenced though, even the larger drone outside.<br/><br/>It became extremely clear that this was<em>not</em>an LEO from Hong Kong; more like a Merc, or worse yet, a<em>Runner</em>...<br/><br/>"Gun!" shouted the voice as she grabbed the pistol that Alice had forgotten to hide on the bed "Both of you on the ground, hands behind your head!  Do it now!"<br/><br/>Ubon quickly complied, and one of the drones moved down and sip-tied his hands together, typical SWAT practice.  Which just left some five guns trained on Alice herself...
