Action: The VLA, realizing that attacking the Police auction is definitely a bad idea, decide to do everything in their power to raise money to purchase every weapon and bit of tactical equipment the Police are selling. Aside from pooling together all of their members' funds, they'll mug and pickpocket as many people as they can.
Reaction: The Danjou Ninjas having cracked, Ilsa orders the weapon caches they've revealed checked out. Small teams case the areas, looking to figure out when they're least guarded.
Major Ilse Rudiger of the Valkoinen Liberation Army takes special pleasure in interrogations. Whether it's the other person completely under her control, whimpering and twitching in fear whenever she speaks, or the pain she inflicts, changing from simple beatings to electrocution to mock executions, every pained quiver and sob gives Ilse pleasure like nothing else in the world.
So, of course, it's only natural she'd interrogate the captured ninjas personally.
Of them, the first to break a small brown-eyed girl with a medium build. Pleading, she finally agreed to the demands after the VLA executed one of the other captured ninjas in front of her and tortured her for many hours.
"So... I hear you've finally agreed to tell us everything. Is that right...?
Ilse asked, the arrogance and sadism clear in her voice.
"Y-y-y... Yes, please... p-please, don't... no more... please..."
The girl, her hair still in a cloth sack, manages to speak between her sobs.
Ilse leans forwards, close enough that the tortured ninja can feel her breath through the still-wet sack.
Running a finger down the side of the terrified Ninja's face, Ilse smiles and laughs to herself, proud of her work.
"Heh. Be a good girl, and one day we might even take off your special hat~"
She only leaves once the broken Ninja, who she has taken to calling Narttunen, has entered a catatonic state from the torture.
Licking the blood off of her fingers, Ilse orders the Ninja's security detail doubled.
There's no way those Danjou Untermensch will steal my toy away~
Of the captured Ninjas, one is now dead. Of survivors, one is broken, and the other/s (3-4 total captured?) are close to breaking.
The VLA are the bad guys, in case that isn't clear. Just want to make double sure everyone knows that.
