Yoko snickered at the boy and savored his panicked cries. "Aww, is the lil' piggy not so fond of it when he's the victim? Maybe next time you'll reconsider your actions before thinking you can take advantage of someone without repercussions." So wrapped up in punishing her attacker for his earlier actions towards her was Yoko that she failed to notice the stranger entering the theater.<br/><br/>***<br/><br/>Meanwhile, a small commotion was brewing outside the theater. "Major Katsuragi, this is highly inappropriate," a police officer of some rank was complaining. "This has nothing to do with..."<br/><br/>"Oh, sure it odes!" Misato interrupted him. "We have reason to believe that the perpetrator in question is under the influence of the Aberrants, and thus our operative is currently in the process of apprehending him. Once the prisoner is secure and we have verified that the influence has been broken, we will happily turn him over to your custody. Now, if there is nothing further, it would be of great help if you could wait outside until we're finished."<br/><br/>Glaring at her, it was obvious the policeman did not fully believe the woman's story.<br/><br/>While this was happening, Nobu bolted towards the theater entrance and managed to catch the soldiers off-guard. She was already pushing the double-doorway open before one of the soldiers even noticed her. "Hey, stop! You can't go in there!" he yelled after her.
