009 | Where Your Demons Hide

Who: Everyone!
What: Emergency demon fighting
When: Late May 5-Early May 6
Where: Just outside of Tokyo
Summary: The demon from the school has reared its ugly head again and needs to be taken down.



On the evening of May 5, the Heavens suddenly receive an influx of prayers from people in and around a certain town just outside of Tokyo. There seem to be a lot of people in the area that have suddenly stopped responding normally (or at all). The situation continues to spread as the night goes on until not only is the whole town suffering from this malady, but the neighboring towns are starting to become affected as well.

With so many gods and shinki on hand - including new ones that have just appeared - the Heavens have issued a request for any available gods and shinki to go investigate what might be happening down on the Near Shore. New gods and shinki will be given the low-down on what's happening, but not much more than that.

The situation will continue to expand until just a little before dawn, when the demon finally has enough power to revive.



Drained Humans

Many humans in the affected areas are walking around despondently. Oftentimes, they are just walking into things or getting hit by things. There have been a few car-related incidents as well. Anyone who was present for the high school incident will recognize these symptoms as something that was happening to people in the school. The glazed looks, the spiritless responses and reactions. So this should be fairly familiar to some.

No One's Safe

Unfortunately, being in the town will start to wear on anyone who is there. Gods and shinki alike will find themselves growing more despondent the longer they spend in the town. All of their energy will be slowly sapped from their bodies, and shinki in particular will feel almost like their existence is draining away.

Hellish Circle

There is a large park in the center of the town. Drawn all around this park is a magic circle, large enough to encompass the whole park. There are candles around the edges of the circle, and in the center there is a cup filled with blood covered by a mask with a swirling eye pattern on it. Stepping into this circle will not only make you extremely tired and suddenly drained, but it will also bring bat-like ayakashi bearing down on you.

The Demon

The Demon itself rears its ugly head just a little before dawn, springing out from the center of the magic circle and looking right pleased with itself. It stands about 5'8" tall, so it is largely unimposing, but there is an aura about it that makes it undeniable that it is powerful. The demon will gladly fight anyone who comes at it, though most he will just shove out of the way without a second thought.



In Summary:
  • Help the drained people
  • Try not to get drained yourself
  • Be careful about being corrupted
  • Fight the demon
  • Have fun~
miraculo: (no boxer though)

ZOMBIES--!

[ She exclaims, "struggling" with the dubbed zombie. She's putting a hand to the poor human's chin, shoving it away from her. Really, she's the one creating all of the commotion and resistance with the human, who really just seems to be flopping around. ]

I... Izuku-kun...! Go on, I can take this one...! Save yourself...!

[What.

Izuku'll just go ahead and pull the poor assaulted human away from her. They just walk away, completely accepting.]


They're not zombies. Ayakashi are feeding off of them. It's happened before.

[ She doesn't know what's going on, but he so easily is pulling away a super human zombie?! WHAT?! She must have underestima-- ]

--Eh? Really? What do you mean? Was there an ayakashi apocalypse before?!

[He's not even using One for All, these people are just incredibly lifeless.]

It wasn't exactly an apocalypse. There were akayashi that were feeding off of people at a school. There's probably another one around that's doing the same thing now.

An ayakashi feeling off people at the school--..... no doubt to cause a zombie apocalypse!

[ Shut up, she just wants to fight in a zombie apocalypse. ] We have to stop such a thing from happening. Quick-- tell me what happened before. How was last time stopped?!
fullcowl: (070)

[personal profile] fullcowl 2016-10-16 01:45 am (UTC)(link)
[Why is she so stuck on this zombie apocalypse thing?

Still, he wants this to stop as quickly as they can make it.]


The last time there were weird jello ayakashi. There were three of them in different places and we had to fight them off.

I don't know where they are here, since it's the entire city. But we have to find them to help all these people.
miraculo: (You get high)

[ Jello... ayakashi..... weird. ] You're right about that... Although-- they were in three different places at once? That sounds almost planned. After you defeated them, everything went back to normal, right?

In that case, it should be a simple task of finding these ayakashi and rending them all over again. [ Let's see, let's see. ...Ah! ] Jello is usually stored in cooler places-- so our best bet might be a commercial-grade refrigerator!

They all had cords, but we still don't know where they went... I wonder if this is an extension of that time? It's been a while since it happened, but if people are acting the same way it's certainly plausible? Was the principal trying to more something back then...? They said they needed spirits before the jello ayakashi arrived. It looks like we didn't completely finish the job... They were in the basement, the principal's office and the library. But this time it's a full town. Just what are they trying to do?

[He's a little... lost in his mumbling at the moment as he starts considering their options and who might do this.]
miraculo: (I hope I)

[personal profile] miraculo 2016-10-17 12:13 am (UTC)(link)
[ She has to lean in to hear his mumbling, and her expression only grows more confused. ] Wait, Deku.

[ She's going to pause his mutterings and theories by grounding him, placing a hand upon his shoulder. ] We have to take this one thing at a time. It looks like you know a lot about what happened last time, and that's a good thing. If they've already made the ayakashi, then we're past the point of whoever-is-behind-this's stage to simply gather spirits. Which means we have to start meeting up with our shinki to fight those ayakashi.

All in all, using people's spirit energy as a source of power to fuel your own spell isn't that uncommon. Whatever they're doing, they're doing something big, which requires all of these people's energy. We have to find that source and put and end to it.

[He blinks and looks up once Sanae's got a hand on his shoulder.]

I wish we could have stopped them in the first place. This is much worse than the first time. It was contained then, so the sources were easier to see, but like this we have essentially an entire town to search through.

But we will find it, and everybody'll go back to normal.

Right...! [ She nods in agreement, placing a hand on her hips. ] But where is there to start? If I were a villian, I'd try to be around on rooftops or somewhere to see all of my plan together, so I bet they're just biding their time, waiting for the zombie apoc--

[ A cough. ]

For more chaos to start! Which means that we shouldn't let that happen. If we don't know where the ayakashi or the mastermind behind this is, then the least we can do is to bring all of these humans that are effect to a safe space.

[He gives Sanae a wary look when she mentions zombies again. They're not trying to eat anybody.]

Where's the safest place here? This entire town is affected by this ayakashi. If we go a town over, those people would think they were strange and it might cause panic.

[Like Sanae's, for example.]

[ A smile. ] A cafe! Or a manga store!

It's perfect because think about it: you're not expected to think deeply or do complicated things at either place. We can just place them there in the meantime. They won't look out of place with their noses in coffee or in books, all ignoring each other!

[She makes a good point, so he'll nod.]

Alright. Do you know where the closest one is?

[Izuku'll heft the closest person over his shoulder in a fireman carry.]
