After the final show in Moscow, as is usual for Pride, the semi-civilized afterparty gradually shifts into a massive sparkly clusterfuck (courtesy of Artolo) at a club on the ground floor. It lasts into the wee hours of 18th, and ends with an impromptu street show by some of the popular Pride performers; Terry Ward, and, later, Aramat Drawdes. There’s a hidden agenda to Music Wizards singing, of course; they’re making sure that those who aren’t fucking off don’t notice it too early, and possibly making obstacles for the security out of fans and guests.
As a mass of musicians, (lower-ranking) staff and fans gather to watch the spectacle, some of them slip away or excuse themselves to go “for a smoke” in a blind alley next to the club that’s commonly used for that, though isn’t directly visible from the show area aside from its entrance (but that’s fine, right? It’s a dead end, right?).
In the meantime, on a different street right behind the back alley, Rescuers have parked two vans and are advancing. Some of them had been contacted and filled in on the plan earlier (like, days/weeks earlier) and had tried to form a rescue team, however thanks to Blanche’s ritual it’s been more difficult than planned. There’s less of them than originally agreed, and some of them might not be in the best shape mentally.
The rescue team consists of Doc Brown, Ivan Karelin, Pao-Lin, Agent 3, Koushi Sugawara, Oscar, Mammon, Belphegor, Eiji Hino, Rarity and Yamamoto Takeshi.
Ivan, Pao-Lin, Oscar and Sugawara mingle into the crowd on the other side to direct the escapees, but Ivan and Pao-Lin ditch the plan and goes after Trucy in particular thanks to Virgo’s influence. Yamamoto helps make a hole in the wall separating the streets and anyone who’s been headed to the back alley can now trickle past the dead end and get into the vans. Mammon is further helping the effort by smuggling Xanxus and Squalo musicians through unnoticed. Rarity makes a grab for Pinkie and they attempt to go after Steven, however it fails and the ponies need fellow rescuers’ help to get back out, further thinning the number of rescuers in the field for the moment.
Unfortunately, there’s only so long Music Wizardry and illusions can cover people disappearing from the main event; security (accompanied by Eda) finally notice shit and give chase. A fight breaks out in the alley; Demyx, Agent 3, Squalo, Terry, Eiji, Rarity, Belphegor, Mai, Yamamoto and Xanxus fight back the guard allowing the rest to get in the vans.
Terry wants to go back for more musicians, so he's knocked out and tossed in the van while the escaping group continues to be pushed back. Sariel and Eiji get injured in the fight, most of the others will be roughed up. As it looks like they’re ready to flee, Squalo “deals” with Xanxus to prevent him from going after Carnies, and has Mammon and Belphegor secure him in one of the vans.
The group continues to fall back with the rescuer’s defences shielding them, managing to hold the guards back just enough to get in the vehicles. The pursuers break through and grab on the last fleeing musician, Demyx. There’s a momentary struggle as someone probably tries to pull him back in; Squalo sees it’ll give the rest of the security a chance to get in/on the van so he punts the poor kid the rest of the way out; it gives them a moment’s advantage and the car speeds off (while someone may, no doubt, be very unhappy with this direction of events.)
Aramat and Artolo stay behind. Artolo acts oblivious, implying that he was used against his will. Aramat may be confronted about her participation in the breakout.

[ Squalo tenses, but luckily, he's still convinced he's a mother. So when Bel's arms wrap around him, he relaxes just a little bit, and instead of continuing to glare at Xanxus, he gives his "son" a hair ruffle. ]
Shit, you're here too? I wondered where you went!
[ ruffle ]
Tell Papa that he's full of shit and I'm not talking to him anyway.
[ ARE THEY GONNA USE THE KIDS TO TALK TO EACH OTHER NOW. How much more stereotypical parent row can this get? This is why nobody should let them ever actually have kids... ]
no subject
Besides, he could get used to this. He beamed up at Squalo.]
I went exploring for a while! I came back after Mammon called me and told me everything. You guys can't have all the fun!
[Bel snickered as he looked over at Xanxus.] Papa, dad said you're full of shit and he's not talking to you. You can still talk to me though.
[ Well, it wasn't too different than when they were back home. The only thing that was missing was something flying towards Squalo's head. Bel checked to make sure that Xanxus' scars went down. That was good as much as Bel loved when Xanxus kicked ass whenever his scars lit up it was always hard to calm him down.]
no subject
[Mammon is so relieved at things de-escalating for once that they can’t even be assed to give Squalo an incredulous look for pulling this ridiculous domestic spat bullshit. God. Their poor damn heart.]
[They tug on Xanxus’ hand, hoping to get him away from Squalo soon so that the wrong kind of murder doesn’t happen.]
C’mon, Papa- lets use all those guards for your anger.
[They’re robots, too, some of them- that means extra durability and extra use of energy to destroy them.]
