Quinn smirked as Revy glared at him and slid his hands into his pockets.  He said, "Welcome to fucking Nexus."

Saber grinned and said, "I do not hold anyone's leash.  All I can do is make suggestions and hope that they do not fall on death ears."

As Rock and Revy departed, Quinn shook his head and looked up at Lancelot.  So, he maybe in his fucking My Love is Like a Truck mode still, the detective thought.  When he had shook Saber's hand when he first met her about a week ago, the undertow of the vision he'd been suck down into had left him unresponsive for a good two minutes.  He'd seen so much; it was still fresh on her despite centuries of a time span.

Then he had to come clean with her and she returned the favor.  Honesty was something very important to the (former) King of Knights and Quinn respected that.  Lancelot suggested that they should leave and Saber was right.  Another thing the two of them had in common was they had heightened metabolisms which meant they had to eat a lot and that meant they were always hungry.

So, he was taking a bit of a perverse delight in introducing Saber to 21st century American food.

He tilted his head and said, "The Brewery?"

The blond's green eyes lit up like fucking fireworks before she looked at Lancelot.  She said, "Modern fare . . . it can be so delightful.  Come, it is fairly private so we can talk and dine at the same time.   I can also introduce you to this wonder called 'pizza'."

******

Forest blinked as the tea was pressed into her hand.  She said, "I'm just wondering what is on the roof.  I probably have a bloody bird shaped hole from that dotty phoenix . . . "

Even though she had more than enough insurance, replacing everything would be impossible.  Not to mention this was her home.

"Coming through, I'll be out of your way soon enough. I just want to get these to Forest while they're at their best."

It was the other Archer.  She could hear the differences in their voices.  There was something harsher and more cynical in - she wanted to say hers but that wasn't right - the Archer before her than the man pushing his way into her room with a tray full of deserts.

"Oh," she said, blinking, "Thank you . . ."

******

Lancer smirked and swept Rin into his arms before shooting out of the hotel like a bolt of blue lightening.   Rider might be the fastest overall Servant, but Lancer had her on short distances, and the distance between the hotel and the police department was "short" to the Celt. 

It was far different than Archer's jumping "falling with style", Lancer was running at superhuman speeds, kicking icy wind and snow as he went.

******

"If you just wanted to get inebriated there are liquors with higher content than absinthe and possibly taste better.  Come, I will show you how to properly chase the Green Fairy," Wynn said with a smile as she extended her hand.

Forest blinked at Henry's statement and said, "Well, when you can't go out for twelve or more hours of the day, you need space.  If not, you go a little nutters."

"Ah, right. I forgot about that," he apologetically stated with a rueful rub on the back of his neck, "Sorry."

Henry had forgotten about how vampires would have to remain in-doors for that moment. It was a boon that he could still have some movement outside of the confines of his stuffy clinic. But now he was just feeling really stupid of himself to miss something so obvious in this kind of setting.

"Right. I think I'll make my exit--"

Quote
She was about to open the door and ask what did they want when there was a loud crash over head that made the building shake.

"Oh, what now?" Forest asked, her voice thick with sarcasm.

What now, indeed," Henry thought in deadpan.

"I take it that this much activity isn't usual around here," he remarked with his eyes glancing at the ceiling.

Whatever was making a commotion over on the roof, it was likely that man-bird. What in the world is he doing right now? Henry was already having a feeling his stay in this compound wasn't going to be as monotonous nor peaceful as he hoped.

Henry then offered, "I can go check it out for you. Probably should take a breather for once and I need to start being useful for once around here."

"If you just wanted to get inebriated there are liquors with higher content than absinthe and possibly taste better.  Come, I will show you how to properly chase the Green Fairy," Wynn said with a smile as she extended her hand.

"I say that the taste of unlouched absinthe meets my demands as a consumer and never fails to fulfill my satisfaction." The arms dealer said, as if he was unmoved by the lady's offer. However, he then said, "But since you have offered to drink with me, I say that this is one occasion where I must drink it traditionally, since it would be rudeness to refuse such."

He then took her hand, bowed down and said "Lead me be, my lady."

LANCELOT

Quinn’s suggestion of dining a brewery made Lancelot frown, and not just because he didn’t trust the . . . man . . . whatever he was. While he appreciated a good drink as much as the next warrior, he had already caused one spectacle without any help from alcohol, and intoxication would only compound the problem. Before he could voice his misgivings however, Arturia turned and gave him a radiant smile while explaining how delicious the food here was.

Lancelot blinked, and then blinked again. The former King of Knights, the one he had fought beside for so many years, was standing before him undisguised as a normal young woman. She no longer wore any garments of royalty, her hair was no longer tightly contained in her usual regal bun, and she seemed to be maybe just a year or two older than he remembered.

And she was smiling. He had never seen her wear such a sincere smile until today. The Knight of the Lake came to the startling realization that for all the time she had spent masquerading as a man, Arturia Pendragon was actually a very lovely girl.

Lancelot’s brain threatened to dribble out of his ears. He averted his eyes, his mind racing desperately to distract himself and explain what the fuck was wrong with everything. The city, his former king, the voices in his head . . . none of it made sense. It was as though some twisted god of madness and discord had created a world in its own image and had just dropped him right into it.

Merlin. This is all Merlin's fault, that sick, sick fuck.

“Let us depart,” the dark knight bit out through clenched teeth, refusing to look at the blond. He did, however, keep a close watch on her supposed partner. While Arturia had expressed her trust in Quinn, Lancelot could not help the uneasy feeling that fanged smile gave him.

Amy

Amy’s eye twitched a bit as she was ignored by the blond. Was she really ignoring them? That stuck up...

She then took a deep breath, “Calm down Amelia, she probably has business with Mille.” She whispered to herself. Proxy however had a different idea, believing it felt far too serious in the room.

Its rainbow fur crackled with power and shifted to a blue color for but a moment, and in that moment water from the pool shot into the air, falling on the group a second later.

Proxy then broke down into laughter as its human form stared at them with a slight smirk.

Amy simply stood, water dripping from her cloths and hair, starring at her child with a smoldering glare. Too bad her soaked hair and clothes made it not very intimidating.

Fiore narrowly avoided the pool nearly exploded, blessing her stars that she did not go up to the rest of her friends quite yet as they got soaked. A few drops of water hit her shoes as she looked at Amy. Given the girl's reaction, it seems like this was Proxy's plot and not her own.

"Proxy! What in the world was that for?" She semi-yelled at the color-switching rabbit, putting on her best scolding voice.

Lycodrake Aptera
As the flames dissipated however the dragon was no longer standing on the ground, instead slightly lifted off the ground, a pair of large flaming wings connected to its back.

It noticed the annoyance the dragon was feeling about not being acknowledged, so Phoenix wanted to make it happier. Dragons often flew through the sky but this one seemed to be unable to. And so Phoenix simply allowed it to enter the sky as its brethren do.

And so Phoenix flapped its wings and lifted itself into the air as it looked at the dragon with its head tilted, waiting to see its reaction.
He felt the warmth of fire wrap around him and gradually felt his clawed feet lift from the ground. Fire burned and blazed from his back. He turned his head to look and found fiery wings flapping slowly. Ah, he supposed phoenixes were supposed to be empathetic - or he was telegraphing his emotions too strongly - to be before the heroes and, as a dragon, to not be acknowledged by the hero-king had disturbed him greatly.

As a gift to cheer him up, the wings were truly splendid, but what could he say other than that? He had never expected to be capable of flight, magic or no magic. It was a numb, pleasant feeling that welled up in gratitude, but also one of confusion and doubt. He had tried, when young, to "shock" himself into flying and it had left him with a dislike of heights. His wish to fly and his anxiety to do so blended all too well here.

And yet, as a gift, was it not best to appreciate it? So, thought tired from resisting the Sphinx's elemental onslaught, he turned his attention back to the phoenix and willed the wings to move him to the same level as the phoenix.

Amelia

Getting dragged around by a small child was definitely odd, but it was not an unpleasant experience. It was nice to be around someone closer to her own age, other kids tends to stay away from her. She was told it was because she looks so mature.

But then Pariah stopped moving and looked off in a seemingly random direction. “Huh?” She stopped just after him, his arm still holding onto hers. “Pariah? What’s wrong.” But the boy seemed to not hear her and began moving in the direction he looked. He moved fast, a normally human would have been dragged, unable to keep up.

But Amelia was anything but normal, and so she ran with him as they moved to the west and despite the uneasy familiarity she felt of the area he led her she followed him.

But she stopped when they arrived at a somehow familiar building. A conflict currently in process, between a man with a black shield, which seemed fused to his body, and a giant diving bird made of metal.

“Huh?”



Phoenix

Phoenix let lose a happy scraw, as it began to move though the skies above the two friends in fantastic patterns.

It then swooped down past the now air born Dragon, playfully buffeting it with a light warm flame, a flame of healing and warmth, before taking back to the sky.

Its invitation was obvious.

Mille
Quote from: Luvia
"Indeed." Luvia refocused her attention to Mille. "Nevertheless, it seems you two have done enough slacking too make them regret that decision. The Wizard Marshal himself had vouched for me to be sent in unrestricted. The Towers faith in you is starting to lack it seems." She flipped her over her shoulder. "You would be wise to adhere to your own lecture, Mrs. Garrison. Now as to my reasoning of being here, I intended to find Tohsaka here though it seems she has already left. I was hoping to converse with her as to what she might have turned up in the few days shes been here but it seems she is absent.Do you know where she has gone? I was told she left with a blue haired man."
"Surely nothing inappropriate to conduct during a mission from the Tower," Diamond chimed in once more. "That would be a most unfortunate report my master would need to file in."
Mille frowned, but didn't stop her weight lifting, regardless. "Your story seems... Odd. We've only been gone for two days. Unless time flows differently, there is no reason to send action this soon. Unless it has directly to do with my interference." Her features smoothed out. Up and down, up and down. The weight continued its momentum.

"As for Tohsaka's location, I don't know. If she left, she left without telling me first. Unless we are being judged as a team, I will not accept responsibility for her actions. If we are, however, I will accept responsibility, and try to make sure Tohsaka does not do something so foolish again."

Then the pool's contents came crashing down on them. Mille's only reaction was to close her eyes to keep the chlorinated water from getting in them, and to stop lifting for a moment. ...and then she kept going. The water helped cool her down during her workout, so it was appreciated. If it caused a strong reaction from anyone else, Mille didn't particularly care.

Rin

Rin blushed as she was scooped up into her date's arms, and carried away into the snowy day. ...A snowy day she wasn't counting on being quite this cold. And the speed that Lancer was going at didn't entirely help with the temperature. So with some effort, as the high speed made it somewhat difficult to move, Rin repositioned herself so she was snuggling more closely to the Servant, getting as close to his muscular chest and arms as she could, for more warmth.

Archer and Hakuno

Quote from: Forest
"Oh," she said, blinking, "Thank you . . ."

There was a vaguely amused "hmph" and a faint smirk as Archer placed the sweets on a nearby table. "Was Hakuno's idea. She thought you seemed overworked, so she thought you'd like something sweet."

Hakuno shyly peaked around the door at that, and gave a slight wave.

The smirk disappeared and sighed. "Though I did do most of the work on these. In fact, Hakuno snuck in eating a few. She told me they taste great, but a bit more help would have been nice."

Hakuno gave Forest a sheepish look before giving Archer a somewhat exasperated glare.

Archer continued, ignoring Hakuno for now. "Well then, if you need anything else, just let me know. Enjoy." With that, the Servant turned to leave.

Revya

Quote from: Shiro
Shiro chuckled, “That must be an interesting experience, to share your body like that. To share everything on that level, it is incredible in its own way.”
"Interesting" is one way to put it.

"Ah, come on, Kid. You know you started enjoying it, my widdle soulmate~ Besides, you were totally in denial about how annoying that Stupid Cow could be before I came along."

I wasn't in denial, I was just nicer about it. Comes with the whole friend thing. You don't hear me complaining about how you were sometimes all the time, do you?

"Heh, it's because really, you didn't have much to complain about, huh Kid? Comes with having someone as kickass as me to share a body with!"

Revya gave Shiro a tired look.

Besides running the forum, I can provide avatars for people as well~
This is my mod voice. ...Most of the time anyway.

Shiro

Shiro gave her a small apologetic smile smile, “Well, we all have trials of our own to overcome. It seems your is a long one however." He took a drink of his water before continuing, "Despite your... troubles it is obvious you are both close. And I don't mean that in the obvious way. You should be thankful for such a bond."

He crossed his heads and closed his eyes, “If only I was able to say the same about my relationship with some of my old associates. “ He added on, almost as an afterthought.

And with that their food arrived.

Luviagelita Edefelt

Just as she was about to respond, water drenched Mille. Her feet got wet as well, and she was left rather dumbfounded as to what just occurred. Looking up, a murky white shield was surrounding the area about half a meter from Luvia's person. In the center behind it was Diamond, whom projected the shield to protect Luvia. "Oh no, don't worry, I need no thanks," she said in an uptight tone.

"No no, Diamond, I am grateful." She had taken notice to what the cause of this splash was. "Do you two mind!? We are trying to have a conversation here. This is not a beach for you to frolic around on with your pet." The nerve of some people. Thankfully she had Diamond now Although selfish as she was, she was not rude like the other two. She had a sense of class, yet ruthlessness. A surprise attack of any sorts was enough to prompt her to move, even if it was just water.

"Two days should be plenty for magi of your caliber. Your mission was simply to investigate. The receptionist seems to believe she went out with a random male, yet she did not confide in you this? What lousy teamwork indeed. Though, I don't particularly hold you accountable for her actions, but surely you could be doing more than... exorcising... at a pool side. You are not on vacation after all, this is work."

Staff Sergeant Jonathan Mathews:

The sudden shaking of the building coupled with a crashing noise sent Mathews into combat mode. His first thoughts were artillery bombardment, but that was quickly thrown out when he remembered where he was. However, that does not exclude an attack...

It sounded like it came from the rooftop. Jonathan drew his laspistol and bolted to where he saw the stairwell earlier...

Corporal Elizabeth Blackwell

The now de-helmeted Blackwell remain seated,  "I appreciate your offer, sir, but I'm not sure if Miss Cardigan here is out of the woods yet and I rather be here for when she wakes," In case she has become corrupted in the mind was left unsaid.

She pulled her rucksack on the floor closer to her and dug out an MRE. Unwrapping it, she was about to take a bite when the whole building shook. "What the-!"

Eleanor King

I look away from the road and down at the chicken burger in my hands. Two days in a row at KFC isn’t good, no, but… Once again, I couldn’t say anything against that girl once she talked back to my complaint “for my own sake”.

The worst part was, she was completely earnest. She said all sorts of things right to my face with complete honesty, despite the fact the words she used could be used without change by a snide, annoying jackass being a dick.

I can’t talk back to her, can’t get mad to her face. Yet, as soon as I leave the KFC, every time I end up fuming, taking heavy steps and slamming doors.

Who am I mad at?

As soon as I think about this irritably, I bump into someone. With my eyes glued on the burger, it was bound to happen. I’m not angry about the fact someone bumped into me.

I could, however, get angry at the fact my burger was on the group, annihilated by both a random passerby’s and my own lack of attention. I paid money for that thing.

I look behind me to the man who bumped into me without even excusing himself. All I saw was some edgy-looking guy with bleached hair and a red and black ensemble. Probably some dumb teenager, not worth beating the tar out of.

I almost put my hands in my pockets and walked away, simmering with irritation despite myself, until a smile let itself out.

Aw hell, I was getting irritated at nothing anyway, might as well harass some asshole. He looks like he deserves it anyway.

“Hey, watch where you’re going!”

X=X=X=X=X

Ragna The Bloodedge

Man, I was having a bad couple of days. I’ve actually started thinking I should have gone with that crazy girl and the long-winded guy with her.

On the upside, I didn’t have that weird piece of shit hangover anymore. On the downside, my currency wasn’t accepted and I had to end up dine-and-dashing for two meals, and then slept under a god damn bridge.

“I might already have a growing bounty, at this rate…” I mumble to myself, though honestly, I don’t much care. I’m used to having people chasing my ass around. What I’m not used to is, well, not having a purpose.

Revenge, destroying cauldrons, facing Terumi, undoing what was done to Noel, chasing Kushinada’s lynchpin, aiming to destroy the imperator, Saya… I always had something to do, a clear objective in mind. Now I was in this big concrete piece of shit of a city, and I have no idea what to do.

I might as well go back under the bridge and play with my dick, for all the good it does me.

Seriously though, this entire place pisses me off. What kind of dumb joke was this, anyway? Who sends people into completely unfamiliar environments just to see how things turn out? Some kind of sick asshole, that’s who.

A certain green guy came to mind. Great, now I was even more pissed at this entire situation.

Contemplative, I hardly even notice that I bump into some girl. Oh well, had to watch where you were going, dumbass. I keep a steady pace.

“Hey, watch where you’re going!” She yelled back at me, irritation present in her voice.

I turn around and face her. She was shorter than me, with quite a high quality ponytail and a coat reminiscent of the big NOL coats, only dark green, with sleeves and opened at the front. To add to that, the entire outfit was covered in wooden and metal talismans, and a few chains.

One thing stood out though.

“Brother…”

“Ragna…”

Clear, big green eyes, and blond hair.

Not as spot on as Noel was with Nu or Saya, but the resemblance was there. Her very appearance made me feel something dark and heavy deep in my stomach. Like most things, most feelings that had happened to me over the years, this alien feeling was transformed into something I knew well, something that helped me cope.

Hate. Rage. Anger.

“How about you watch where you’re going before you mouth off, you idiot!” I yell back at her, without restraint.

“So that’s how it’s going to be, you little shit?” She says, walking up to me and getting in my face. Grow a few more inches before you try that, dumbass.

“What’s this? You want to go, you little bitch? I’m not going to take it easy on you because you’re braindamaged.”

“That’s it, you’re going so deep underground, not even gods will be able to find your remains!”

She jumps back and bashes her fists together. Fire sparks at the knuckles, and soon enough a massive fire flows around her, almost reminiscent of a school of fish underwater. Far up the ass of this ball of fire, the bitch’s face can be seen, veins bulging in anger.

“Oppressor’s Cruelty!” She yells, and the flames seem to agitate with her words, flowing closer to her in a way that looked way too controlled to be actual damn fire.

“Ha, if fireworks are all you have, you might as well kill yourself now!” I shout, pulling out my sword, the Blood-Scythe, in a reverse grip.

THE WHEEL OF FATE IS TURNING!

REBEL ONE, START!

X=X=X=X=X

First to hit wins!

I punch the air in front of me in a shadowboxing-like maneuver, and the familiar feeling of lashing out connects with my magic, making it do the same. A wave of fire flies towards the edge-master, supernatural fire that won’t easily let go of whatever it touches.

The wave is six meters in width, more than enough to him most targets before they could dodge.

I smile at that. First hit of the battle already belongs to me, and along with it, initiative.

Just as I think that, a red and black blur jumps over the wave and lands in front of me, sword drawn.

My surprise turns into hesitation, and I give the asshole more time than I should. I react as fast as I can by sending out an omni-lateral burst of fire, both as a smokescreen, defense and attack.

The only downside was, I couldn’t…

X=X=X=X=X

What an idiot. If you’re going to make a smokescreen, realize that you won’t be able to see either. She bursts out fire in a perfect ball, but I’m already too close to her.

I swing my sword up, down and forward.

“Dead Spike!”

From under my feet, a big, black and red head made of seithr pops out, jaw open to reveal dozens of sharp teeth. The head comes out and lunges forward eating fire and bitch as it went along. In its wake, the sphere of fire looked more like an open gate, and that woman was nowhere to be seen.

Oops, didn’t see that coming, did you?

Just as I think that up, the dead spike explodes, and there she is, angry and stupid.

“Tyrant’s Fury!” She yells, and I realize her arms and legs are glowing with a lightning-like feeling to them.

“Seriously? What a pain,” I say, to which she reacts by dashing at me, fast.

In the little time her trip took her, I throw up a basic barrier ars. She punches and kicks against it, and I felt it strain.

Damn, she’s packing serious firepower. My barrier’s about to run out.

She winds up for a heavier attack, and I just knew that if it hit, it would be the end of my barrier. So instead, I punish her for winding up in the middle of nowhere.

I dispel my barrier, and with her fist still behind her for a huge swing, I lunge forwards with the move which gave me the most movement.

“Hell’s…!” I yell out, my right hand exuding a dark, violet fire.

X=X=X=X=X

Shit, he’s right under me!

I have no real time for a move, or for proper balance. I swing my left fist up to meet halfway with my right fist, pulling it back forward with all the speed I could. I ended up in a very awkward position with both hands at one side and almost falling backwards, but the important part was there:

My fists connect.

“Despot’s…” I start, but his fist connects with my abdomen, right above my right hip, knocking a bit of the wind out of me. I had to finish speaking, though, because I knew.

I just fucking knew.

He wouldn’t let it end like this.

His left hand makes a palm, and more the black and red toothed… thing, same as what ate my fire, poked its head out of the ground.

“…Will!” I shout, and my entire body’s infused property changes from [lightning] to [metal].

The toothed head, smaller than the one from before, follows his palm’s movements and slams into my abdomen. My awkward position makes me fly backwards a bit, and crash onto the ground with a roll.

Almost unaffected because of my new infused property, I make to get back up, only to see red in my range already. Oh, that guy, he’s just so…

“You fucking ass!” I manage to shout out.

“Not letting you get up, bitch!” He shouts, and he kicks me square in the abdomen, follows up with a sword swing, which in my current state manages only to leave a small cut.

“Inferno Divider!” He yells out, swinging his sword from his side, to downwards and finally upwards and going along with it, jumping in the air.

Carrying me along the way, too. This asshole, he is strong.

“Not done!” He yells, and uppercuts me on the jaw, then punches me straight on. I somehow fly back further, and into a building’s brick wall.

When did this get here?

I think about it a second. He was other there, I did my thing, he did his... Why was I calmly thinking about this? I must be feeling those hits, even in Despot’s Will.

Ah, I was falling.

And he was waiting. Another horizontal strike pushed me up against the wall instead of falling down on the floor, then he did a light upwards strike… and then his sword was covered in the same darkness that ate and bit me already. The blade, enveloped by this darkness, struck down with a lot of power.

He wasn’t done, a small part of me whispers into my ear. Right, he couldn’t be done. I try focusing my eyes a bit more, tensing up my muscles.

There was a dark hand coming.

“Devoured by Darkness!” He shouts, as his massive dark hand covers the entirety of my chest.

I had a moment of peace, calm before the storm, that I took too tighten up my body. Elbows at my side, legs up, force those abs girl, you have them for a reason.

Then it came.

From the arm, from his shadow, from everywhere, like a thousand set of teeth taking a thousand bits, like a tornado of jaws, everywhere on my body was assault viciously at once.

I couldn’t even say anything. Pain assaulted my body like nothing else.

And then he chucks me aside, onto the wall, as if I was nothing.

Oh, you…

“You fucking piece of crap…” I grumble, as he walks away. “You think I’m done or something!?”

I get up and bash my fists together, just as he turns to face me again.

“Conqueror’s…!”

X=X=X=X=X

God, does this bitch never learn? I turn around to face her, battered rag that she is, and there she is bashing her fists together again. Another mode?

“Advance!”

My reflexes kick in with speed only master Jubei could have drilled into people, and my arms cover my face.

Like taking the whole of the Red Devil’s weight with Tao’s speed, she crashes into my arms and propelled me across the street, into a wall.

Less than a second. In less than a second, she covered ten meters and attacked me that hard.

What the fuck was that?

I hardly have time to think, because that bitch is still in front of me, covered in flames. Back to the classics, it seems. Speaking of classics, there was a huge wave of fire coming.

Man, what a bitch.

I didn’t have time to jump this time, or make an ars barrier. I just blocked my face with my right arm and took it.

The wave never passed. Whatever she must be doing, she must be doing it continually, straight in my face. I could feel the heat covering me, eating at me, eating at my grimoire, and they actually hurt me, even my right arm.

These flames are magic, I can feel it. That made them more dangerous to me than normal fire. I need out of this situation, and I need out fast.

…Fuck this.

“Restriction 666 released, dimensional interference deployed! Idea engine, linked! Blazblue, activate!”

Everything goes dark. The fire is eaten by something even more powerful and sinister, and I feel strong along with it.

No, I don’t just feel strong, I feel unstoppable, invincible. I feel complete, capable…Nothing could stand in my way now.

Not even if she decided to amp it up a notch and throw a tsunami of flames at me instead of this wave.

“Dead Spike!” I yell out, and a dead spike many times bigger than the one from before comes out, rushing to eat the bitch.

…Of course, this time I know the pattern. Though instead of exploding her way out, she burst out from the side. This one’s tougher, huh?

She sees me, but also, I see her.

Gotcha, bitch. Prepare all you want, you’re done.

I pull my sword behind me.

“CARNAGE...!”

I dash forward, faster than expected, but not faster than her mode change. My sword hits her dead on, but leaves nothing but a long cut instead of anything more serious.

Wasn’t finished yet, anyway.

“SCISSORS!” I yell out, pull a full circle and swing again, this time with the power of the azure behind it. A dark explosion happens in front of my blade, tossing her into the building I’d crashed her into earlier. A part of its wall crumbles onto her.

I could see her in the rubble, just a bit of her sticking out under the bricks.

I turn off the Blazblue, and walk up to her.

…Yeah, completely knocked out.

I pull her out of the rubble and set her on her back. Her mode must still be on, because apart from a bunch of long cuts and Azure burns, she looked fine.

Hell, she’d probably walk it off once she woke up. What a nut job. Still… she did look a hell of a lot like Noel, now that the ponytail had fallen apart. Face was built differently, but there she mostly was.

As if I never maimed her.

I sigh and prepare to stand up, but notice something through her torn-up shirt. Some kind of…

I click my tongue. Seriously? First Jin, and now some random chick? What’s with these people who pick fights with me and then hold back? What a bunch of complete and utter idiots.

If anything, right there was something I could do in this city.

Reduce the idiot population.

…Wow, get a load of this guy, I say to myself with a smile. Who does he think he is?

Uchiten and Homura

Uchiten had to scuttle away with his chuckling, purposefully giving his familar more room to fret over the girl on the ground. She was probably going to need it, now that she had unwisely been given lease to move on, and so was the spirit medium, who the onmyoji predicted was about to wish she had more room to breathe.

On Homura's part, a raspy anxious breath exited from her mouth and she drew in more air in excited need. Her hands shot to grasp the spirit medium's shoulders needily, while widened eyes roamed her body and looked past skin in scrutizing assessment.

"You poor little flower..." Homura whispered, her breath over the girl's earlobe, snuggling on the redhead's neck.

The grasp on the girl's shoulders shifted to her upper arms, tightening for a second as Homura inhaled deeply. Then spiritual energy started to gather, emanating nurturing warmth from the youkai's palms.

Homura's hands snaked down the spirit medium's arms, restoring the skin that they passed of bruises and cuts, stimulating internal harm and pain to fade. Her fingers played across the younger looking girl's flesh, tapping and sliding and feeling.

The fox demon smiled, then suddenly grabbed the girl at the waist, pulling her even closer, while her other hand went down. It then crept up the redhead's legs, working its healing magic. The contact of skin to skin lingered longer and longer as Homura squeezed and approached the spirit medium's thighs. Her fingers brushed slowly over their inner side, only for seconds before they departed.

Homura smiled at the girl, cupping her cheek with her left hand and touching their foreheads together. The treatment spread through that contact as well, even while she grasped at the spirit medium's lithe stomach under her shirt.

The fox spirit giggled, and pulled that hand back, to rest it further up the girl's torso. It hovered there for a bit, just under that small but noticeable bust, before it moved up with the creases of the fabric. Homura traced the lower line of the girl's breasts and pushed her hand up through the middle of them, stopping right at the center of the spirit medium's chest.

Homura hummed to herself and allowed the healing glow to intensify, spreading through her patient's body.

Jorge

Something tempted him to do a foolish thing. Was it because he was bored or out curiosity. "I will pursue that "Slasher". He or she must be adept at killing magic users, but every serial killer gets caught". Remembering who made the announcement, he decided to follow them and wait for opportunity to present his offer.
