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~

What-?

[Yuto just can't believe this. He stares at the girl, taken aback. There's really nothing amazing about him so Hajime should stop with this exaggerated reaction!

In worry Yuto looks towards the ayakashi, then he looks back at the girl.]


We're on the battlefield. There are ayakashi around! It's not the right time to be fooling around!

[Does he really have to tell her that?]

[Hajime blinks at that, she settles a bit and glances around curiously. Sure maybe her attention has been take with Yuto but that doesn't mean she's being that absentminded. After a moment she looks back up to him.]

I know we're on a battlefield. That's what we all got sent out for right? Right! So I've been getting their attention every way I can so they don't bother anyone else.

[ How else would she have gotten dirty or her clothes a bit torn? C'mon Yuto, don't think she's messing around completely. She just needs a little breather. That's all. Hajime holds out a peace sign to him. No worries!]

But that doesn't mean I don't have time to appreciate you, Yuto-san! It's not everyday you met someone that can turn into something so incredible, you know? You're strong too. Maybe a little rough around the edges but I'm sure you'll polish that off in no time if you keep at it.

[Yuto's attention shifts to her again and this time he notices how torn and dirty her clothes are.]

You're here all alone? [Didn't she say she was a god? Where was her shinki now? He quickly goes back to watching for ayakashi and glaring at any that dares to get too close.] You need to be more watchful of the danger then.

[His voice is scolding, but concern can be heard in it as well.

And he will never understand why she calls him incredible.]


You think I'm strong because I'm a dragon? [Well, he may be strong in this form, but as a human... there's too much weakness in his heart. He doesn't know why he thinks so, but a part of believes he just isn't strong enough.

He wants to be stronger for people around him.]

[The concern is appreciated. Even if it comes in a scolding tone. She just lifts her hand and gives a thumbs up]

I am! But Heroes have to move no matter what the risk is. Have you ever moved or done anything without thinking about it? You just feel an unstoppable urge and it's something you have to do? This is like that! I want to help anyway I can, no matter how big or small.

[She's happy with what she had achieved so far. Sure she was mostly averting attention of creatures but that gave her allies breathing room and spared the town. That was what was important! She was watchful for how she could be helpful. The Ayakashi don't near too close, they merely lurking. Waiting. But if she is paying attention to them, it doesn't seem like it.]

BZZT! Wrong! [She makes an 'X' shape by crossing her arms in front of her face. She holds it for a moment before letting her hands drop]

Yuto-san, you got to look deeper then that! I think you're strong because you're you! You have a shine to your eyes! A powerful bright shine that no matter what happens you'll pull through and won't back down. That's why you're strong! Even if you're unsure of that!

[She skips around him as she speaks, trying to get the few view as he talks. He's a large dragon but not a dangerous one. She really knows nothing about him. They just met that day. But that just meant she would have to get to know him better with the coming days. ]
