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~

I'll teleport us to someone. I don't know who, though! Can I call a doctor to our temple? [Okay so he's obviously freaking out a little and has been for a while now.] Do doctors even work on shinki?

Shit. You stupid idiot. [He keeps saying that, but still doesn't mean it. Also he still just teleports them to their temple because where else are they supposed to go? But at least Bandou is on a bed for right now!]

[ Is it bad that Bandou's totally not phased by being called an idiot? Probably because he's heard it plenty. And he's used the phrase enough himself to know it doesn't always carry that much of an insult to it. ]

There's gotta be a doctor... f-fuck...

[ Damnit why couldn't his vessel form be a sold iron wall or something? Night vision glasses really wouldn't have helped lessen this situation any. He holds his breath while Izuminokami-san teleports them home, finally letting it out slowly as he rests against the soft cushion of his bed. It's definitely better, if only a bit. ]

You're okay though?

No! I'm not okay! You got hurt so why would I be okay? [If only he'd been paying attention to his surroundings, if maybe he had been a better god? There's a lot of ifs but Izuminokami is sure he should have been better. He murmurs something that sounds like 'be right back' and he isn't gone for long before he's back with a glass of water.]

In case you need it. I'll be back. I'll try to find someone for you, okay?

I mean physically.

[ Obviously he is if Bandou took the full force of that impact, but he wants to really make sure he did a good job of protecting him. While Izuminokami-san's gone, Bandou attempts to find a comfortable position to lay in. Flat on his back seems to be the best so far. Which is kind of irritating since he's used to sleeping on his stomach. Guess that's not gonna be a thing for a while now.

But then Izuminokami-san is back and he nods gratefully at both the water and promise of a doctor. ]


Thanks. I'll be...here.
