November 12, 2033. Midnight.

You just ordered a general mobilization of your unit after receiving a distress call from a nearby law enforcement group surrounding a large library in the outskirts of town. As it is your duty, you call upon your comrades and descend to procure equipment and encouragement all the same. After about 20 minutes your vehicle arrives at its destination. The officers greet you and your unit with a mixture of contempt and unease.

About time you showed up huh. Guess its party time

one of the officers scoffs, looking the other way

dont want us to keep you waitin'. Go ahead.

Your expression hardens as you walk in, stomping your boots on the wooden floorboards which are already starting to crack. Some of your comrades have begun displacing the extinguishers as they pump out gorgeous flaming fangs out of their muffs.

Hey uh... sir. Today is the first day of the new enactment right? The... new protocol.

You turn around to see Rena, a new young rookie looking at you expectantly, her sweaty fingers brushing around her pump

Is it really necessary?

she glances over at the shelf just behind her back where a bunch of Christian and Muslim religious books are starting to catch on fire

cant we... wait until tomorrow? I perfectly understand if you dont want that sir. Just... wondering.
