002 | Tokyo In Trouble

Who: Everyone!
What: Surprise! There's a disaster on the Near Shore.
When: Late at night (February 24, 2016) into mid-afternoon (February 25, 2016)
Where: The Meeting Hall of the Heavens AND various places around Tokyo
Summary: A nice little greeting for the new guests and an unpleasant surprise for the older ones~



A sudden, loud blast of noise persists throughout the entirety of the Heavens. It sounds much like a war horn of ancient times being played at a decibel that is meant to shake the very core of every being within its range. No matter how much you might try to block out the noise, it remains ringing in your ears deafeningly, and somehow you find yourself compelled towards the Meeting Hall - the place where you were first introduced to the Heavens and what you have gotten wrapped up in.

Anyone checking their phones will notice a large, bright red alert flashing at them - 'EMERGENCY! REPORT IMMEDIATELY!' It seems that the Heavens have taken to using modern technology for their messages as well.

Once you have reached the Meeting Hall, you will find that every wall has turned into a sort of television screen, displaying various streets and buildings in Tokyo, everyone one literally crawling with ayakashi both big and small. A voice that you recognize as Amaterasu's - though you would never be able to describe it properly - rings throughout the halls.

"We need your help, brave gods, loyal shinki. A rift the likes of which we have never dealt with has opened on the Near Shore. We must end the ayakashi who are harming our dear followers. Please come to our aid in this time of need."




Meeting Hall

The once garishly decorated Meeting Hall looks very much like the base of operations for an army at war. There are gods gearing up with shinki and man-made gear as well and plenty of gods and shinki saying prayers before they head out to battle. Everything you might need to make yourself feel safe during a fight has been provided, including every type of weaponry. But, of course, only shinki wielded by a god can actually destroy an ayakashi.

Counselling

In the main hallway, there is an innocuous door with a small, nicely written sign that reads "Gentle Counselling". Inside the door is a small room with a few sweetly smiling shinki inside who are willing to listen to your problems and answer any questions you might have. They are also here to help out any gods that are having a hard time dealing with knowing about how their shinki died and any shinki that is having trouble coming to terms with the fact that they are dead.

February 24

The rift that has opened is so vast that there is literally nowhere in Tokyo that you can go without encountering a rampaging group of ayakashi. Everything is utter chaos and there are creatures everywhere for you to fight. Let's just hope that you can get out of this dangerous battlefront mostly unscathed.

February 25

Towards the middle of the day, it will seem that the ayakashi are becoming fewer and further between. Things seem to be calming down a lot, though they are nowhere near normal yet, especially since the rift is taking longer to close than the Heavens would like. Fortunately, no new ayakashi have escaped into the Near Shore from the rift since this morning, due to a barrier that has been placed around it. Still, the ayakashi seem to be really hell-bent on getting away from you all now rather than fighting...



In Summary:
  • There are a ton of ayakashi on the Near Shore that need to be destroyed.
  • The newbies are getting one hell of a welcome as a result.
  • Seek counselling if you need it!
  • Go kick some evil ass.
  • Comment to the first thread to get a randomly generated number of ayakashi to face.
  • Mods will gladly play out any ayakashi interactions where requested.
  • Try not to get killed~

[For a moment Vector's face morphs into something that clearly spells 'aw, do I have too?!'. He sighs, waving a hand at Yuto to step back.]

Fine. If you have braced yourself, then get ready. Yuto, I want you to move towards the ayakashi already.

[There is a brief pause as Vector steps to stand next to Yuya as he gives the darker twin a meaningful look.]

There is little I can do for a dragon, so you will be mostly on your own. I'll take Yuya and stay nearby, so don't hesitate to call if you feel you're getting overwhelmed.

[personal profile] ridethathippo 2016-03-28 01:33 pm (UTC)(link)
[To counter that serious note from Vector, Yuya gives Yuto an encouraging smile:] You definitely won't be alone. We'll be there for you!
darkduelist: (ひとりきりのつもりだって)

[personal profile] darkduelist 2016-03-28 06:04 pm (UTC)(link)
[Yuto gives a nod to both of them.]

I know. [He knows he's not alone.] The same goes for you two. If you need help just call.

[He won't be too far away.]
jyajyaaan: (is it this you wanted to see?)

[personal profile] jyajyaaan 2016-03-29 12:09 am (UTC)(link)
With all dramatics out of the way... Shouki!

[Grabbing Yuya by the arm Vector pulls him with him as he steps back, aware of the tail he doubts Yuto has figured out how to properly control yet.]

Let's get going!
ridethathippo: (Surrender at 20?)

[personal profile] ridethathippo 2016-03-29 04:09 am (UTC)(link)
Hu-wha? O-okay. [Good thing Yuya's not completely clumsy with all this tugging around, and he pretty much follows along as directed.] My turn next?
darkduelist: (ねえ! その心を貸してよ)

[personal profile] darkduelist 2016-03-29 04:54 pm (UTC)(link)
[Seriously, have some faith in him. He still isn't used to his dragon form but he won't hit them with his tail. He moves very carefully.]

Be careful, both of you.

[And with that said he's going now.]
jyajyaaan: (Masquerade)

[personal profile] jyajyaaan 2016-03-30 12:19 am (UTC)(link)
[Vector watches Yuto go with slightly narrowed eyes before he remembers Yuya and that he's still got a hold on him. Giving him an amused look he lets go and takes a step back.]

Alright. How should we do this? Should I hold on somewhere so that I won't drop you once you have turned?

[A pause.]

Remind me of your name again too.
ridethathippo: (Reliability vs Validity)

[personal profile] ridethathippo 2016-03-30 01:54 am (UTC)(link)
[Should he take the amused look as a good or bad sign? Either way, the confused look isn't leaving Yuya's face.]

I don't know. No one gave me tips other than I just turn into whatever. [So technically Vector knows more than Yuya. At the very least, the red-head can push up his sleeve to reveal his shinki tattoo.]

Yuuki, I think.
jyajyaaan: (of course I trust you)

[personal profile] jyajyaaan 2016-03-31 03:55 am (UTC)(link)
Alright then~ [His voice sounds way to light and optimistic as he peers at the exposed name.

Clearing his throat he raises a hand to where his mouth would be and then shouts]


Yuuki!




[Please no dragon. Please no dragon. Please anything but another fucking dragon-....!]
ridethathippo: (Pick a god and pray)

1/3

[personal profile] ridethathippo 2016-04-01 10:13 pm (UTC)(link)

[BAM! Another fucking dragon!]
ridethathippo: (And then the plot arrived)

[personal profile] ridethathippo 2016-04-01 10:13 pm (UTC)(link)
[Even after the light fades and Yuya adjusts to his new sense of height, the new dragon stays rather silent and still for a moment.]

....? [He glances at Vector (who's now shorter than him, haha) and then down at his stubby T-rex dragon arms.]

....!
ridethathippo: (٩̋(๑˃́ꇴ˂̀๑))

[personal profile] ridethathippo 2016-04-01 10:17 pm (UTC)(link)
YEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSS!

[Yuya's telepathic voice is mixed in with a happy, dragon-like screeching sound as he lifts his head up triumphantly. This is horrible news for Vector but the best ever for the red-head. He's even moving around in a little dance, whipping his tail back in forth excitedly.]

I'm a dragon too! I was so worried, but wooh-hoo!!! This is the best!
Edited 2016-04-02 00:38 (UTC)
jyajyaaan: (you call that a plan?!)

[personal profile] jyajyaaan 2016-04-02 09:25 pm (UTC)(link)
......!

[There are no words to express what goes through Vector's head at the sight of his second shinki, which - all things considered - is probably for the best.

He takes a tentative step forward, and just as he finally regains his voice-


Tail whip. It sends the Barian crashing into the wall of the next building and takes at least 2000 points off his life points.]
darkduelist: (忘れてた理想に沿って)

[personal profile] darkduelist 2016-04-02 10:09 pm (UTC)(link)
[Yuto doesn't even manage to get into any real battle when he hears the noise from Yuya and Vector's direction. Worried, he quickly makes his way back...

...Only to see the red dragon. A few seconds later he also notices Vecor's form crashed into the wall. He takes a few steps towards his god, frowning.]


A-are you alright? [If Vector wasn't a god and an alien, Yuto would be now concerned if the other's even alive.

Then Yuto's gaze falls on the red dragon once more. Yuya is not around. The red dragon looks a little like Yuto's own dragon form... which means...]


...You're Yuya, right?
ridethathippo: (I HAVE TO PLAY BY THE RULES?!)

[personal profile] ridethathippo 2016-04-03 07:21 pm (UTC)(link)
Eh? Huh? Yeah, it's me. [Yuto's return and concern for Vector makes Yuya slow down his happy parading to look back towards their god-- oh crap.]

UWAH, Vector! Sorry, I didn't mean it! Are you okay?! [Yuya takes up a place next to Yuto and cranes his neck so he can get a closer look. Hope you don't mind a concerned dragon thrusting his face at him.]

I-I'd lend you a hand, but.... [Look at these useless, stubby arms.]
jyajyaaan: (out with the trash)

[personal profile] jyajyaaan 2016-04-03 07:29 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, sure you didn't... right after I told you to watch out for that too...

[Holding his aching head Vector growls and moves to stand up. But the moment he leans forward something inside his upper body moves and he crumbles down on himself, curling his knees close as he squeezes his eyes shut in pain.]

Fuck...! What are you standing here for?! Do your job!!

[He swipes his better arm at them, not at all keen on having them watch him deal with a broken rib or two.]
darkduelist: (忘れてた理想に沿って)

[personal profile] darkduelist 2016-04-03 07:40 pm (UTC)(link)
And leave you like this?

[Worry shows clearly in Yuto's glowing eyes. Vector looks like he's in pain. Did he broke something? How can they leave him like this? Will he even be able to fight? Yuto doesn't think so.]

We should get you somewhere safe first.

[Vector can join the fights back when he's not in pain anymore.]
ridethathippo: (Yuri's eyebrows are a freak of nature)

[personal profile] ridethathippo 2016-04-03 07:45 pm (UTC)(link)
[At least the waving of Vector's arm connects a good smack to Yuya's snout so that he automatically pulls back. But all this commotion isn't going to be unnoticed for long.

'Smells good? Smells good!']


Ummm...We better figure out where fast 'cause we have some trouble coming! [There's orange and green giant crabs crawling over the roof towards them. Yuya turns to meet the first that drops down to the ground, actually aiming (this time) to whack it back with his tail.]
jyajyaaan: (death match start!)

[personal profile] jyajyaaan 2016-04-03 08:10 pm (UTC)(link)
RRrrrgh, don't underestimate me, you brats...! What do you take one of the seven Emperors of the Barian World for, an easily broken flower..?!

[He forces the rest of his way back up with a smooth move and only rises an eyebrow at the crab that goes flying until it smacks against another wall, similarly to how he had.]

Just keep destroying stuff, I'm sure that'll end doing some good.

[Sarcasm aside, there is enough chaos around that some broken buildings more or less probably didn't matter.

Raising an arm casually in the direction of an ayakashi Vector has a giant hand formed of purple energy pick two more crabs up and crush their limbs before tossing them away carelessly.]


I'll look out for myself.
darkduelist: (揺れる 私の心の臓)

[personal profile] darkduelist 2016-04-03 08:23 pm (UTC)(link)
[This how you treat dragons people who worry about you?

Yuto scowls, but pushes his anger aside. There's no time for it now anyway.]


Fine. [He calls to Vector and focuses on the approaching ayakashi. Using his tail he aims at another crab to send it flying at the rest.]
ridethathippo: ((屮゜Д゜)屮)

[personal profile] ridethathippo 2016-04-04 05:10 pm (UTC)(link)
[...Meanwhile, Yuya has no clue what all this 'Barian' emperor stuff Vector is talking about, so he makes a confused dragon sound as he continues whacking the giant crabs away. And apparently Vector's pretty well-off on his own from the looks of it.

Sadly, this beat-em-up game with the crabs isn't actually making them disappear. The ones that haven't had their legs horribly maimed keep getting back up and coming at them again.]


...Are these guys invincible?! [Just asking considering the last one he thought he squashed under his foot is standing back up again.] They won't stay down!

[There's a potential threat of being overwhelmed by a pack of crabs.]
jyajyaaan: (seriously-!)

[personal profile] jyajyaaan 2016-04-04 07:21 pm (UTC)(link)
[Demonstrating his unfazed strength being done Vector happily falls back. He can't help holding his injured side as he stands by and watches, secretly hating every second of being forced to show such a sign of weakness and being seen doing so. Still, it fucking hurts...!]

Hmm~? [Alerted by Yuya's cry, he turns his attention on what his dragons are doing.

.....which is apparently playing games.

Feeling the need to slap a hand against his face and drag it down over it growing, Vector fights the words that are on his tongue down with as groan. Was he the only one who had bothered to learn everything he could about this world's mechanics?!]


Guys. Don't play whack a mole with them. You're dragons, not dinosaurs. Blast them!
darkduelist: (Wanted to fight this war without weapons)

[personal profile] darkduelist 2016-04-05 06:43 pm (UTC)(link)
[Yuto knows, he can explain it to Yuya later. For now it's most important to focus on getting rid of those ayakashi.

...Which isn't going well.

When Vector addresses them, Yuto glances at their god.]


Blast them? [He repeats, as his attention shifts to the crabs.] How? I don't think I can breathe fire.

[He's not that kind of dragon... or at least he thinks so.]

[personal profile] ridethathippo 2016-04-06 07:21 pm (UTC)(link)
[Yuya is just as dubious of the suggestion as his twin.]

Yeah! It's not like we can just go 'BLAH' and fire comes ou--OWWWWW! [One of the crabs has managed to clamp onto his tail while he's distracted. Not as bad as broken ribs, but it's surprisingly painful like a bad burn.]
jyajyaaan: (angry)

[personal profile] jyajyaaan 2016-04-06 07:44 pm (UTC)(link)
[ ....yeah. He wants a refund right about now.]

....Alright, then.

[No use complaining. Springing into action, he leaps onto Yuya's back. Holding onto one of the Spikes that seem to be there for no other reason than a handrail, VEctor raises his bad hand and focuses his power.

Bang!

The energy bullet was a lot smaller then the previous time he has used it and hits the crab right in the eye. Taking aim again, Vector blasts half of the pincer off too.]


Fall back and herd them together, I'll take care of the rest!
