Current Date Start: Saturday August 2nd 2031 to Friday September 17th 2032
After ridding the world of a connection to an evil vampire intelligence and revealed to the Sorcerers of Malibu that one of theirs was responsible, Louis was offered/allowed to become a student at the Sorcerer University in Malibu. Louis wanted to learn spells and magic and so, he parted from the group for a little more than a year.
During that year, Nora and Sato continued to operate with Jacob squad, hunting down possible agents of the Nighlady, to prevent them from taking over important positions within the Government or other Influential Corporations. They joined and participated in a few fights where backup was needed a few times and fought a few battles against a few minions of the Nightlady as well. One thing, they never faced another Vampire so far.
Nate... ?Went to Germany trying to find the girl he met in Vegas?
Charles aka The Bear replaced Ricco in the group as he regained his satity progressively and is again, healthy and 'All right' to perform his duties. Being an Engineer and Computer Genius, he can do Ricco's job with hacking and computer stuff, but he still have a bit of progress to do before he can be as good as Ricco was. None the less, he's the new reliable Hacker and Tech guy.
The loss of Claude in the group was a hard blow, but having found the Sorcerers of Malibu, the squad still has access to magic and spells when they need, but this alliance doesn't provide magical assistance as readily as it used to with Claude.
Ami Futara, the Nightbane girl that liked to party near the bonfires in Malibu was recruited in the Jacob Squad near the end of that year and is still adjusting to fit in the group.
56 weeks have passed...
A weird girl showed up in a warehouse where Ami was staying and unsure what to do, Ami called Nora for help. With a vision of an entire city going nuclear if the group didn't help that weird girl, Sato convinced them it was in their best interest to go and see what this was all about.
Turns out the girl Elley Donnovan had built a A.I. and placed it in a 10 year old looking human Androit called Asus. After getting hit by a car, some ciruits between the brain and the power supply were damaged and caused Asus to think his energy was almost entirely gone. A background protocole was guiding him to try and find the nearest Nuclear facility where he would try and restart/refuel his power supply, which could have resulted in a Nuclear meltdown or as Sato's vision, a devastating explosion.
Our group managed to find Asus using the mirror search talent and tracking him down the highway and they were able to catch up with him half way to the Nuclear power plant of California in Devil's Canyon. The struggle to hold the android while Elley tried to shut him down was a little challenging and a cop car eventually arrived. Sato and Louis immobilized it before they all managed to flee with Elley's van, leaving the cop car behind, stuck in a Carpet of Adhesion for 30 minutes. They sadly learned later that this police car, partially stuck in the right lane of the highway, caused a major accident and the cop was killed in the accident, while 4 other person were badly injured.
A few days later, a major even was all over the news when a
giant demon monster attacked Kesser Corporation HQ in L.A. Our group was in Malibu and had to means to get there fast enough so they watched the entire event in the news. Part of Kesser Corp Tower was demolished while the entire Lobby and first floor was ravaged before domes of Darkness appeared to cover the entire building. The military attacked, lots of police and military units were lost in the darkness. Some video captured a few Sky Hunter poking out of the darkness during the attack, but only briefly. By nightfall, the fight appeared to be over, but the Darkness stayed all night. The police and military kept a perimeter for safety and upon sunrise, the Kesser Corp tower was... Intact. The newscast said this was all a big prank from the news station and that other newscast simply went with it, telling the same story and showing the same video as the pranksters.
The group later learned from Art, that the monster wanted to rescue a Werpanther called Sheera.
