[Event] Invasion!

Characters: OPEN to everyone!
Location: All over Death City
Rating: Various
Time: February 2nd
Description: Witches have invaded and are attacking the city!

The attack, when it comes, happens quickly enough that Death City would have been caught flat-footed had there been no prior warning, but it's not completely unexpected because of the city's heightened state of alarm the past day. Warning sirens start sounding to alert the citizens and guests the moment a dark, slow-moving mass out in the desert to the south-east of Death City is spotted by Shibusen sentries. There's even time for civilians to run and hide before the mass is identified as an army of what looks like decaying, shambling corpses. The city's defenders are slow to move, however; most of them are distracted and are having trouble dealing with the black blood in their bodies. While agents are gathering to head out to deal with the zombie threat, that's when the witches make their move.

Portals begin opening in the skies above the city, disgorging hideous familiars: bulbous spiders and leggy ants the size of dogs. They drop hundreds of feet down into the streets and alleyways of Death City, and scuttle off in search of victims. The spiders are poisonous and can spin copious amounts of web to capture their targets, the ants spit acid that cause agonizing, paralyzing pain. Their masters bear down on the city in a cloud of black shadows--massive ravens strong enough to carry off adult men. There are five witches, women on broomsticks, beautiful if not for their crazed grins and obvious glee at the chaos descending upon the city. At some unknown signal--maybe the cackling from a couple of them--they dive in concert and disappear into different areas of the city.

Their masterful plan has begun!

You might want to turn arou-shit.

[Well, hopefully that will alert you of said spiders, although Dave meant to make a much more elegant attack on the stupid things. Of course he didn't consider that getting stabbed with a crappy sword may result in the spider lashing out and throwing him into the closest pile of trashcans in what was probably the loudest and most uncool beatdown he got.

And he would be more embarrassed if he wasn't already scrambling to his feet. Because. Spiders. Hi Luna.]

[She reaches for the wand that is neither present nor useful now, brandishing the stick again when she recalls once again that her only choice now is physical combat. Managing to dodge the same spider, she runs to Dave's side, opting for a practical but not particularly affectionate solution of taking a battle stance again.]

Are you hurt?

[Okay. You got a stick and he has whatever he grabbed from the pile of trash. Looks like a plank of wood. He glances up at the sword lodged into the spider.]

It's only a flesh wound. I'm gonna feel it in the morning though, so expect some bitching then. [A beat.] We can either run like the wussiest pair of kids everyone has ever seen, or we can go at this with what looks to be a stick and a plank. I think our odds are in our favor.

They might be allergic to wood, do you think so?

[...it's a legitimate possibility.]

You know. i really doubt it, but why the hell not. We can say we tried.

[This is such a stupid idea. Why the heck not.]
