Vanguard

Damn...

The woman gritted her teeth as wires choked her. Finally, it was not that woman’s blade that would finish him off, but that rat’s knife. It shot his forehead and instantly killed her, letting nothing but a gasp escape her. And thus, she fell and was simply no more.

So why was she still smiling so arrogantly?


Tohuw Balagan

Wait, um stop. H-hey!

The demon couldn’t help but sigh in disappointment. That was it? He didn’t even get to make a dramatic speech. Ever since he heard that geezer’s voice at his doorstep, he had been making sure everything would be perfect. This lack of effort on the actor’s part was distasteful, it cheapened the drama and the story!

Honestly, he was quite mad about that. Kinda. Juuuust a bit. Moodkillers like that weren’t fun, it was supposed to be his big shining moment after all! They just profited off his very hard work and took the credit.

Damn KSers.

Then, he noticed something was off, and his expression suddenly changed to a grin. Letting out an amused chuckle and clapped, applauding their futile efforts.

“Oh my ~! Great job you all, you have slaughtered a defenceless woman without mercy. And they say I’m a bad guy. I am soooo proud of you!! ”

Then, he hopped down the roof and landed in the middle of everyone, a nice pretty colourful shopping cart standing right next to him.

"I need to get some groceries, ingredients for the big party. Play nice, mmmkay ♫ ?" He purred, giving Iri a big sly grin. And with that, he simply skedaddled, ready to do his very important job.

The armour seemed to have dissappeared too...

Jeanne

Sakura appeared to be lost in thought before she suddenly asked her what the clothes she had bought looked like. The blonde woman looked around her, noticing a bathroom in one corner the café. Standing up, she walked over to Sakura and pulled her up. "I can show you them in the bathroom Sakura" She said as she took her over to it and pulled her in.

Shinobu

The vampire jumped as fast as she could, high up into th air when she saw dinosaur-Rikuyo charge her. There was something strange going on however, usually when a person jump they will eventually come down, However even after several seconds had passed there was no signs of her coming down. If one looked up they would see Shinobu floating in the air, well not floating but more like being carried by the black bat like wings that had grown out from her back.

Jin

Oka let his member slide out from her mouth, wiping off a saliva trail that connected it to her mouth with one of her hands. She then slowly crawled up him until she got close to his mouth and asked how good she had been. Jin stroked her hair as he complimented her. "You were really good at it, did you like doing it?"

[Umbra of Chaos]

Lumen

"Oh." Her tone was rather flat and lacking in nearly any expressiveness. Lumen hadn't been expecting that at all. She hadn't even considered the idea of having her skin color covered up by magic. Then she remembered why she had never considered the idea in the first place.

The Patchwork was very much aware that she at least on occasiona attempted to hide her real colors. It was still a sore spot to have that mentioned by someone else. She suppressed the feeling of grumpiness welling up inside her and instead said, "That would be nice but most magic doesn't work on me and even the magic that does gets unraveled very quickly."

Pillar of Autumn:

So, a German-speaking mercenary whose taking recreational drugs. Wunderbar.

Autumn knew that mercs are fairly common nowadays. The Great War was over, and now there are many factions coming in to take their own slice of two broken major powers. While the UNSC is indeed recovering, it is still a shadow of its former self and many former insurrectionist movements are now making their moves. Everybody needs extra muscle these days, both the good and the bad guys.

Chi Rho sits on the edge of the inner- and outer-colonies, a gateway of sorts. The former Covenant somehow leaped over it during their crusade against Humanity, preserving both its population and biosphere. And here this mercenary is, thinking she's in Africa...

What was she huffing? Is there a merc refund policy?

"This is Chi Rho, don't you remember Miss?" Autumn said, gently retracting her arm after the rather limp shake, "And you didn't misunderstand: I'm a Fleetgirl! Now, about getting to base - I assume you have a Warthog parked around here somewhere? I'll even drive."

Sascha

And here she was, staring at the girl who keeps insisting she's... either a fleet, or part of it. It was hard to make a distinction between the two from the way she uses that English of hers. Even then, Sascha was confused. The fact Autumn went on about Chi Rho didn't help matters, it sounded a whole lot like some Vietnamese province of some sort, or some other South East Asian territory. Something this forest was obviously not.

Sascha sighed, and shook her head to that. "I think you're confused about this, Fraulein." She drawled out in her heavily accented English, letting her hand droop back to her side. "This is not Chi Rho, wherever that is. We're not even in Asia... Gott im Himmel, and this forest, it certainly doesn't look like an African one, which leaves me in a bit of a bind." The East German paused, mulling over the pickle she found herself in, before continuing. "Because I know for a fact I was in Southern Africa, and no, I don't have any 'Warthogs' parked around here, I was on foot the whole time, and neither is there any base that I know of. It's actually something I am looking for at the moment, civilization that is."

She decided not to call out Autumn's insistence on her being obviously what she was not, but the merc figured that'd really get her nowhere if she gets the girl all riled up over semantics. Hell, maybe after all this, she could go over for some coffee, and break the news flash to the chick that she is not a ship, but not right now.

COUNT GREYSKULL

"Don't lose hope before trying!"  The skeleton cried out. "What kind of Dark Lord would I be if I could not even do that much!?"

Greyskull thought for a while, trying to come up with the best idea. He would help his friend no matter what!! And then, he had an idea. A WONDERFUL idea!

"What if I cast an illusion over you, rather than on you. Like overlapping an image instead of replacing it completely."

[Knick]

Nanashi

“You see, you’re wrong there. It’s definitely my problem.” She growled, lowering her body and putting on hand on the ground. “Now, we can do this one of two ways, you come with me and I hand you over to the cops so they can figure out if you really are dangerous.” She told her with obvious distain.

Then she smirked, “Or, we can do it my way and I TAKE you there myself.” A just slightly the spiritual energy throughout Nanashi spiked in anticipation, and soft sound of dripping water started resound.

“Your call.”

[Aiden]

Annabeth

The Hunter sighed as she relaxed back against Ron as he continued to work, feeling the tension in her muscles simply melting away under his earnest, if a bit unskilled, hands.

"A-Ah, shoulders would be...be nice," the bounty hunter admitted with a light moan, "U-upper back too..."

"You're pretty good at this," she noted contentedly before a mischievous little smile surfaced, "Past experiences helping you out here?"

Ron

That was simple enough to work on! At least, he figured it would be. Ron just had to slide his soapy fingers down through her hair, back to her back, slide his slick skin from side to side toward her shoulders...

He started to rub at them.

"Can you keep a secret?" he asked her rhetorically before continuing. "I'm making this up as I go more than anything. So if I'm doing anything right here, it's luck. I'm lucky, can't you tell?"

Like this werewolf thing, that's ... the opposite of lucky. So I'm totally lucky now.

He shook his head, and resisted the urge to dunk Annabeth's head under the water without warning to 'help get the soap out of her hair' so he could distract himself from that. Alas, they didn't have nearly enough room in this bathtub for him to even try. Just the thought made his leg twinge as he remembered the last time he tried to test flexibility in this thing.

[Kaze]

EMIYA SHIROU

Shirou’s boots crunched on the snow that covered the sidewalk, compressed into an icy layer that threatened to make him fall, requiring that he concentrate on each step to keep his legs from sliding out from under him. It might have been annoying, but right now he was grateful for the distraction.

He wished he could say that he was no longer bothered by places like this. He knew it was silly, this was far from his first time in such a place, and it wasn’t like he could hear or smell the carnal acts going on within the establishments that lined the street. Hell, it wasn’t even busy right now. That came well after the sun went down. But even so, the mere knowledge of what these businesses offered made him uncomfortable.

Still, the situation demanded that he swallow his discomfort and soldier on. The women who worked here were good at collecting secrets, and right now he needed any scrap of information he could get, even if it was unlikely that a dragon would bother visiting a (mostly) human brothel.

The freelance magus made a quick 360 scan out of habit, but his eyes only found two strangers having a strained conversation. His head turned back to the sidewalk for a moment, before swiveling back to double check what he had just seen.

A blond man wearing clothes that somewhat resembled Church uniforms stood talking to a young woman with shoulder length white-pink hair. Nothing exceptional, except that the woman’s face was extremely similar to Saber’s. But that couldn’t be possible, he had only just seen Saber yesterday morning, and he doubted that the former servant would care for such a drastic makeover.

Or would she? They had been… close, a long time ago, but he had changed a lot since then, and Saber had been making a life for herself here as well, it seemed. As good as it had been to see her alive and well, they didn’t really know each other anymore.

Before he knew it, the archer found his feet taking him across the empty street and over to the pair, his curiosity getting the better of him. Besides, any priest found in this sort of place couldn’t be up to any good.

“Excuse me,” he said in english, his eyebrows scrunching up as he concentrated on the words. “Forgive my… rudeness, but you look familiar. What is your name? I am Shirou Emiya.” Hopefully they wouldn’t take offense to his interruption, but judging by the lady’s expression, she hadn’t been pleased to speak with the priest anyway.

[Panda]

Seras

The vampire stared after the man as he left, feeling no small amount of disbelief at how he seemed to have not realized that she just spoke into his mind. However, she didn't get up from her seat, not seeing a reason to considering he didn't seem to be intent on leaving and she could hear him anywhere within the house anyway.

The man strode away, soon happening upon what sounded like a bathroom, if the sound echoing faintly off what she guessed were tiles was anything to go by. As tempting as it was to simply warn him now, the vampire decided to let experience serve as the teacher this time around. After all, its lessons were far harder to forget.

[SINIB]

Sakura Matou

Sakura got up with Jeanne and followed her to the bathroom, idly glancing around and making sure everything was alright around her. On her way to the bathroom, she happened to notice Shirou and Rider seemingly talking to each other by the drink machines. "Huh." She said, wondering why they were there.

But after a moments thought, she dismissed any worries she had. It didn't really matter, it's not like she needed to know what they were doing 24/7, after all. They'd both probably gone to get more soda or something. She smiled at Jeanne and followed her into the bathroom. After a quick conference with her bugs, in which she ascertained the room was empty, she turned around and locked the door, before she caused her shadow to emerge briefly, ejecting a large bag of clothes onto the floor before disappearing once more. "They should be in there." Sakura said.

Oka

Did she like sucking dicks? Oka had to think about it. She-didn't dislike it, definitely. It was arousing and it turned her on, nor was the taste of the semen gross.

"So what if I say I did enjoy it?" Oka asked him, wagging her butt and bringing her mouth close to his, less than an inch away. "Would you call me a bad girl?" She asked just before she pressed her mouth against his, and began prodding his lips with her tongue, attempting to invade his mouth.

Shirou

Shirou sighed. Rider was right. She needed professional help. There was no disputing that. "I hate that you're right Rider." He said with a frown. "Why don't we go back to the table then? I can at least make sure she has a happy day today."

[Cherry Lover]

Rider

Rider smiled gently at Shirou, glad that he had finally accepted that the best thing they could do right now was to not worry about it.

"Yes, I know things seem bad, but right now she's happy. She has a new friend who seems really nice, and she's here with you and me to have a good time. Let's just make her as happy as we can until we can find a better solution", she said, heading back to the table with her drink in hand.

[Thedoctor]

Jeanne

Jeanne did notice Shirou and Rider talking to each other at a drink machine as she took Sakura with her to the bathroom, she didn't pay much mind to it however as she simply didn't feel like interrupting them right now. As they got to the bathroom Sakura paused for a moment before turning around and locking the door, while she had been doing that Jeanne took a look around the room to see if she could notice anything out of the ordinary but she soon finished as she didn't. Suddenly a shadow emerged from Sakura dumping a bag out, "They should be in there" Sakura said.

"Excuse me" Jeanne quickly said before removing all her clothes. She then opened the bag and got some underwear out which she then put on, the panties she got on pretty easily but the bra took her a moment to figure out how it worked. She then pulled a light blue shirt out of the bag and put her arms into it. She started to button it, starting with the final button and working her way upwards. As she got higher up on it she struggled a bit as her rather large breasts made it a bit harder to properly get the buttons in the holes.

She finally finished and gave an innocent smile at her acheivement before reaching for the bag again and pulling out a pair of jeans, as she got into them they felt a bit odd with how snug they were, especially how much they hugged her hips and butts. As she finished getting them on and closing the belt she turned to Sakura to ask her how she looked. "So...what do you think Sakura?"

Jin

Oka leaned closer to him and kissed him while wagging her butt. At her question about whether she was a bad girl or not, Jin laughed and answered. "No I think you're a good girl." He then opened his mouth to allow her tongue entry as he grabbed her to pull her even closer to him. His tongue sneaked into her mouth as well, getting a good taste of her.

[SINIB]

Emiya Shirou

Shirou adopted a smile and nodded, following Rider back to the table. He still felt upset, uneasy, and helpless. I want to, no, need to, make Sakura better. I need her, she needs to be ok, I promised her that I'd protect her, I have to make her ok.

"I have to." He said to himself as they walked.

It didn't take long for them to get back to the now empty table. Shirou looked around, before turning to Rider. "Do you think they're playing a joke on us?"

[SINIB]

Oka

Oka began to explore Jin's mouth, voraciously kissing him and tasting his saliva. She was ready. More than ready. She wanted release, and soon. As she continued to kiss him, she took a hold of his hand and pulled it down to her soaked panties, and then gently pressed it against them.

"You know what to do, right?" She asked him in between kisses.

[Panda]

Annabeth

The Hunter all but melted at his touch, little moans escaping her lips as his fingers worked every last bit of tension from her shoulders. Annabeth found herself more or less incapable of supporting herself, and thusly decided to lean on him more to compensate. Unable to help a contented little hum, she allowed a smirk at Ron's statement.

"Well, considering everything that's happened to you recently," Annabeth mused, glancing back at him, "I'd say your luck's taken a turn for the better, though not without a few hiccups, granted. Even so, I'd say it's working out pretty well so far."
