Cross Effects: Rebirth (2.0) The RP
Brahmastra:
Karna was touched, he truly was. The man's story was one of tragedy, much like his own. The establishment of a human utopia to honor a dead loved one was indeed the goal Karna saw at the bottom of the Magus's mind, his deepest desire. It was an honesty that Karna could admire, and a wish he could empathize with. His own friend Duryodhana had wanted to rule all of humanity as a fair and just king, the closest to a Utopia that could be realized at the time, and had succeeded until the great Pandavas toppled his rule.
For that reason, both his similar goal to his friend and his honesty, Karna would reward the Magus.
"A thousand thanks for being honest to me, O Magus, and my most sincere apologies for threatening you earlier. You have proven yourself worthy of the praise of ages. For that reason I desire to reward your earnesty. I will give or do for you any one thing, so long as you are honest in your desire for it. For showing, me such great determination, you deserve at the very least that."

Tokiomi was shocked. “Wow, that is, well, really impressive. How do you maintain the spatial boundaries and solve the issue of dimensional quakes due to continual spatial rending?”
Tokiomi though for a second before shaking his head, he had a familiar check the trap, it was a bug of some kind. He frowned; he has been seeing similar bugs around town, he will have to run some tests.
Still had to go home, disperse the ice and reset the trap. On top of that he still has not had the chance to go shopping; he requires some materials for his next planned experiment on the sword. There was a small shopping area with the needed stores near his workshop. He should probably come out there.
“Nevermind, don’t need to think about that right now, sorry. I need to head to the stopping district near the harbor. Do you have a doorway to there?” Tokiomi pauses a second before realizing something
“Oh wait a sec.” Tokiomi walked back to Minato and handed him a gem, “Here this will let us get in touch, hold it up to your forehead and charge it with prana, will connect you to mine.” He held up another gem, an almost exact copy.
He smiled at his new acquaintance, “Thanks for the tea and help with those werewolves, I owe you one.”

"W-What?"
The Golden King was taken aback by the Ancestor's sheer level of disrespect. Even Gilgamesh knew his limits, as high as they may be, and a fight with a True Ancestor would not necessarily end in his favor. Even so, the casual disrespect that she had shown him was something completely new. He was not used to people addressing him in such a manner - usually they fled in terror or bent down in obedience.
--- Quote from: Arcueid on May 27, 2014, 06:44:53 PM ---"This city is pretty big. Surely you can find find people to get along with. Or maybe you're antisocial?" She considered him for a second. "Hm, indeed you look the part. Even your clothing sense is all wrong. Guess I'll have to help you." She sighed dramatically. "I intended to go back early to watch some new movies but now I can't leave and simply ignore a sad and lonely puppy like you."

The King of Heroes was completely struck dumb. He gaped at the blond haired woman, his regal manner and bearing temporarily pushed aside. Even as the Phoenix flew joyfully around their heads, Gilgamesh was utterly confused.

He couldn't take it anymore. With that declaration, the Original Hero began to laugh, his previous irritation faded like it had never been. Shaking his head in mirth, Gilgamesh looked at the Ancestor in amusement.
"You are not what I had expected from an Ancestor, certainly."
With a breath, Gilgamesh composed himself, his kingly disposition completely restored.
"I must disappoint you - I have only one friend. Only one man is my equal, and throughout all of time this will never change," He noted the sunbird's antics with some amusement, watching as it soared around the tower, spreading its' feathers far and wide across the city in a blaze of flame.
"What of you, Ancestor?"

Law shoved the .45 into a coat pocket of his, motioning with his head to the passenger side seat. "Put the sword in the back, should fit, at an angle. Try not to scratch the leather, please, this day has been bad enough already."

Hakumen's massive hand reached down and carefully opened the car door.
"Very well."
Carefully sliding his giant sword into the backseat, the warrior gently lowered himself into a car. His giant body somehow managed to fit inside the door frame - to anyone with half a sense of humor, it would have looked comical. The white giant was scrunched up in the passenger seat of the muscle car, somehow managing to fit even though part of his shoulder stuck out of the open window and his long, silver hair took up most of the backseat.
Even though his blade now rested in the backseat, the way the giant had laid it made it such that the sword poked out into the front are of the car, its' handle conveniently close to Hakumen's hands. The warrior slowly turned his head to stare at Law once more, his completely blank looking dispassionately at the driver. For a moment, it almost seemed like one of the crimson eyes on his shoulder piece had blinked.
"Drive."

"No."
The resident shut down the woman as soon as she appeared, his back turned. He could feel the energy radiating from her, and it took some considerable willpower to suppress his initial reaction to kill her. It didn't matter much to him, in the end. The resident had turned his back to the rest of the group, and was contemplating simply going back inside the bookstore when a gigantic metal bird crash-landed out of nowhere, picked the woman up, and promptly crushed her into the pavement.
Even for someone as apathetic as him, the suddenness of the events was enough to startle the resident. Leaping back so fast his form blurred once more, the red-haired man landed next to a lamppost in a crouch, tracking the proceedings with his eyes. Just seeing the woman in action made him irritated - her battle with the mechanical bird invoked instincts that the resident repressed. Attacking here was pointless-
--- Quote from: Umbra of Chaos on May 29, 2014, 03:48:14 AM ---"That was rather exciting! Although it seems I have failed to answer your original question, Henry. I am here in search of some entertainment. The nights can be so boring sometimes, however it seems like there are still things that can surprise even me. I haven't been ambushed like that for ages."

The red-head's eyebrow twitched.
The next instant happened too fast for even a supernatural eye to see. In a rending of metal, the resident had ripped the lamppost he was crouched next to straight from the ground and thrown it at the woman like a spear.
The Man With All The Cute Boats:

"Damn it, I don't know where you'll find me. But if some shit's going down, odds are you won't have to look too far," he said before turning away one final time and mumbling. "Trouble has its way of finding ways of dragging me in, after all."
He kept an only somewhat steady pace, punctuated by small, manageable amounts of dizziness; nothing that could stop him outright.

Grigori almost had time to speak to the woman before an enormous piece of metal impaled her.
"Again? Twice in one day?"
She tried to speak more, but she coughed up more blood instead. Grigori narrowed her eyes, and began to twitch violently. Then she stopped moving, and seemed to be incredibly calm. Even her outrage at being impaled seem to disappear. Then she turned around to face her attacker. It was the man with golden eyes.
"I am done playing."
Her voice was incredibly calm, and she didn't even seem hurt when she had the lamppost pull itself out of her chest. Another flash of curative magic closed the wound. The metal pole was dropped onto the ground. Then she began to actually pull on her reserves of mana. This was not like any magic she had performed today. This was a summoning. Grigori raised a single hand, and a red circle began to form on it.
"I open this gate of my own free will."
Then impossibly hot fires burst from her hand and sat in front of her. This was no normal fire. Even the most mundane human being would be able to sense the wrongness it radiated. It wanted to consume. It wanted to spread. It wanted to burn away all of creation. If you looked close enough you could even see the faces in the flames. Grigori didn't summon fire. She had summoned a six fire elementals. One of the most volatile and dangerous elemental beings obeyed her will, and she even managed to stop them from spreading. Grigori only had one command.
"Kill the one with golden eyes."
Then the elementals moved. Three raced across the ground at incredible speeds towards the man, and the other three flew into the air and launched themselves directly at him.
