The next morning, the police are readying themselves for battle. They're not sure where sato is, and they're worried that he's going to head straight for the presidio's room, where he'll be easier to track down. The police are also worried that the backup power supply is going to be cut off soon, so they'll have to wait a while before they can get back on their feet. They decide to stay in the securrity server room until the power comes back on, since they don't know how long it'll take to get it back on. They also decide that they've got to get to the north stairs, where they can hide and wait for the power to come back on so they can start fighting.
