Cross Effects 3.0 - April 13, 2015—June 23, 2016

[Kotomine_Rin]

Richard Maxwell

Richard shook his head in dissappointment.

"Nonono. It's 'Oh, please forgive me and my barbaric ways, oh great and wise Richard Maxwell. I did not mean to sully your ears with my filthy savage mouth.' Come on, it's easy! One, two, three... action!"

[Kat]

Aisha

"There is no mistake. You are human, so you are one of my Children." There was absolute certainty in her voice. To Aisha it was no different than stating that the sun was hot or the sky was blue. All of humanity was her Child so all humans were her Children.

Noriko

"You don't mean..." Noriko put two and two. Her claim that humans originate from her, her immense pool of Mana and her ancient style of clothing. This possibly could mean one thing."...you are the original human?" If that was the case, then this was a milestone in her quest. She wanted to become as close to the original human as possible, if really humans could trace their lineage to a single first human, in mind, body and soul. To witness a one with her eyes meant that her quest wouldn't be futile. Intrigued, she awaited the woman's confirmation.

Mordred

"Don't you order me around and call me a savage. Especially after I was so nice and wanted Emily to regrow your arm. Even if you are some regenerator, it won't grow any soon? Helping you regrow it will be more than an apology." She tried to bargain. She wouldn't stoop so low to grovel before someone who just insulted.

[Kotomine_Rin]

Richard Maxwell

"Oh. Well, that's a shame." said Richard, his smug shit eating grin not faltering for a second. Turning his back on the two ladies, he picked his walkie-talkie and turned it on.

"One two. One two. Rikoo, do you copy? The hunt's busted, we have cleaning duties to attend. Care for a little field trip to the furnace?"

[YOLF]

Shendu

The demon sorceror growled. The man's words were folded away, of little consequence in comparison to this... not-child's attitude. Shendu moved one of his hands in a restrained rising motion, and the offender floated up accordingly, his power of telekinesis doing its work. Shendu brought her to the level of his eyes without applying any further force - there was no need.

His burning glare focused on her as he spoke, "Know a dragon when you see it, ignorant whelp. Do not make me have to spank you for your disrespect."

[SINIB]

μ-12

The swords retracted back into a yellow portal, all but one reappearing directly in the path of the disgusting beast as it lunged forward, flying at incredible speed in an attempt to skewer the creature.

At the same time, she pointed her palm at the deep wounds and called forth a massive explosion inside one, intent on blowing it to pieces. A single sword remained floating behind her as lasers continued to rain downwards.

Meanwhile, Noel was intently watching Henry. Both of the eyes on the backs of her shoulders suspiciously watched his every move. No emotions had registered on his face when she transformed, none at all. Not even a hint of surprise or shock passed over it. Up until now, he had been fairly expressive, and she'd never mentioned this form once to anyone in the Nexus. The small eyes widened in surprise at the complex pattern that momentarily flashed on his cheek. She would need to tread carefully; there was clearly more to Detective Barthow than met the eye.

[Kat]

Mordred

"Let's go, Emily. We need to find a safe place before this leaks over here." she turned to her fellow Changeling. She had feeling that the hunt would fail anyway due to incompatibilities between her and the hydromancer. She would hunt Forest another night.

[Knick]

Mia

Mia felt her body lift off Shirou’s lap and begin to hover to the Flying Smoking Lizard Man. But instead of any hostile actions she instead began to swing her arms, and then, do cartwheels in midair, “Wheeeee!”

As she came to a stop in front of the man, the man who was obviously holding her there, and then with a incredibly mean tone that he spoke. "Know a dragon when you see it, ignorant whelp. Do not make me have to spank you for your disrespect."

As he spoke, Silver and her instincts rubble at her, and slowly her stories began to shift. However before that could finish she simply did one thing.

Her head tilted to the side and she squinted, a very confused look on her face, “What’s a dragon?”

[yinsukin]

Captain Edward Coombs:

"Alright, then, let's begin." Coombs said after the teenager volunteered, "Joseph, would you kindly escort the other two outside?"

The other man nodded and began herding the other two witnesses out of the room. As soon as the door shut, Coombs pressed down on the recorder, "This is Edward Coombs" he began in his raspy voice, "Unit leader of the enforcers based at District 22, invesitgating Case Number Four Oh Seven Five. This is Interview Zero One. Would you please say your full name, Miss?"

Medaka sat down across from the officer.  Her eyes were dead but her voice was clear.

"My name is Medaka Kurokami" She stated simply.

[Panda]

Emily

Emily considered her fellow Changeling's words for a moment.

"Would your place be safe?" Emily asked, unable to help a slight grin, "After all, you agreed to take a break after this."

[Kat]

Emily

Emily considered her fellow Changeling's words for a moment.

"Would your place be safe?" Emily asked, unable to help a slight grin, "After all, you agree to take a break after this."

Mordred

"I'm not entirely sure. There's no guarantee that my place is not watched by whoever targeted us. If we go there, it's at our own risk." she warned Emily.

[yinsukin]

Relius Clover


It happened so fast.  The swordsmen went flying across the car, not only knocking the couple out of the way but throwing them across the room with great force.  The woman went flying forward, passing Relius and the crowd behind him, apreoching the wall. 

The man on the other hand flew directly to the right, falling into a chair.  The train was moving upwards, out of the underground.  A rustle sound could be heard if someone had keen ears.

Relius blinked only to see Ignis standing in the way of the sharp toothed dog.  It appeared as though she took a blade directly to her upper breasts, as there was a more than shallow cut mark on her body.  He thrust the metal puppet spear into the pregnant woman’s body, killing both her and the unborn child.  Without a second thought, Relius continued talking.

“Humanity? Beutiful? Surely you jest!”  He said as the blood splattered onto his metal puppet spear.   Act two was over.  It was finally time for the climax.

From his peripheral vision, he could see how close they were to his ideal position.

Its almost time.  He thought to himself.

[Kotomine_Rin]

Sakagami Kenzo

Kenzo quickly moved past the puppet and cut down the mechanical arm before it could as much as touch the woman. With an intense look, he stepped forward and kicked the man in the chest with lightning speed, sending him flying backwards with a snapping sound. His bones were certainly not sound.

But this was far from over. Stepping forward like a blinding red flash, he went for a slash at the man's throat.

[Panda]

Emily

"True, they probably would be watching that place," Emily nodded, "Perhaps a hotel, then? I didn't come here entirely empty-handed, so I'm sure we could find some inexpensive place to spend a few nights until things cool down a bit."

[Umbra of Chaos]

Mata Boyd

Unholy fire burned through the arm of the beast and splashed against its face. Flesh burned and bone charred under the heat of the flames. Then its flight was stopped by the blade piercing through its body and was launched back by the subsequent explosion. With a loud thud the body struck the ground and sent foul liquid spraying into the air.  The rats had dispersed and for a moment things were quiet.

If not for a sound similar to a camera shutter the sewer would be incredibly quiet. The source of the noise was the sewage worker's phone taking a picture. Mata casually walked in front of the two officers and snapped a few more pictures with a satisfied hum before pocketing her phone.

"This, this just made my day. So are we leaving now or do you want to poke your head in that hole the thing just came out of before we leave."


Sewer Infected

The creature was sent flying through the air and smashed against the wall with a squeal and a sickening crack. Then everything in the darkness moved in unison. A flood of humanoid figures came charging in and while they were only at the limits of human strength they had the advantage of a huge difference in numbers. Clinging onto the Infected humans were countless, pink rats that leaped at the swordswoman with unnatural speed from their rides.

But the assault was far from over. Hunters came charging in right behind the mob of rats and humanoid Infected ready to fight while at the end of both sides of the tunnel stood Juggernauts that blocked off any escape and Leader Hunters that filled the space right in front of the much larger Infected.


Aisha

Soft laughter escaped Aisha's mouth and the sound of the plants rapidly growing quickened for an instant. "The original human was my Child as well. All forms of life are my Children. And if that's the case, then who do you think I am?"

[Knick]

Just

Just continued speaking with Kern, completing his recap on the situation, it seems they were close to ensuing that the area was structurally stable.

So it seems the tonight is a go then.

Then he heard the man mention Suiren, and turned to look at him with a raised eyebrow. It was obvious he wasn’t one of Suiren’s followers. To stupid and on top of that he revealed he knew Suiren in front of them.

He probably had a run in with her at some point.

He turned to the man… no the entire group of three. “It would be best if you were to leave. We are going to begin checking out structures to see where it is safe to go, it would be best if no one was in our way.” He told them, her voice stern and cold.Gone was the nice old man from eirler, who was relax and at ease, and before them now stood the leader of the Guard of the Saint.

It was a partial truth; he really wanted them gone because he could tell some of the guardsmen were incredibly tense. The last thing he wanted was for there to be a fight.
