OPEN

Characters: Open to all Mission goers to Florence, Frankfurt, Prague and Vienna
Location: Florence, Frankfurt, Prague and Vienna
Rating: PG
Time: Jan 17, starts at about mid-morning
Description: Missions 151 and 152, crossposted to LJ


Florence
Florence had been immediately evacuated the moment Shibusen Florence recieved word from Death City about the danger to its population. Most of its citizenry had left, but the sentries, guards, and local militia (and mafia) had stayed to bravely defend the city. These were unfortunately the ones being affected by madness, to turn against each other with the same determination they had attempted to show their duty.

The streets of central Florence are plunged in chaos, with torches lit and some structures burning. Those who have managed to resist the madness to try to salvage the museums are hardpressed to defend themselves against those that have become crazy, but the light rain in the afternoon helps.


Frankfurt
It's cold and grey in Frankfurt but the streets are busy with activity. Germany has deployed its military to assist Shibusen Frankfurt in evacuating the people into shelters and taking down those that have begun to go mad. The problem is that even with their haste, it's still not enough, and they are becoming more overwhelmed by the hour. A number of makeshift forts and shelter are scattered throughout the city, requiring help to get through the crazed people outside. Kishin eggs in random areas are taking people down one by one in a frenzied eating craze.


Prague

The Prague agents are unlucky today with the weather, with the cold and chances of light snow. They're given coats or jackets before they leave Shibusen Prague, but are quickly urged on to the northwest part of the city. The heaviest of the violence and damage becomes concentrated there by afternoon, with people boarded up in buildings and kishin eggs preying on the people outside.


Vienna

It's snowing lightly in Vienna when the agents come in, and it seems that the situation there had gone from all right to downright crazy in the minute it took for the madness wavelength to sweep the city just an hour before. There is chaos as people run from murderous citizens and the police try to take them down. The prisons are already overflowing, some with people desperate to protect themselves from attack.

It doesn't take long before the first kishin eggs appear, people who accidentally kill others and eat their souls in madness.

All right, let's go. *He draws his watch issued katana for now and keeps his single eye wary for any kishin eggs that might wander their way.*
forbearanced: (white space)

[A nod, and Koujurou started forward. He partially transformed, arm shifting into the blade of the Black Dragon.

The entire walk was clear of enemies, but once they arrived at the location Koujurou had pinpointed, they got a good view of the chaos going down just a few steps away from them.]


...It might be best if I transform now, to better protect the both of us.

*Auron gives a low whistle in appreciation for his partner's skill. Not every Weapon could do that.*

Probably a good idea. Any kishin egg we can cut down can only help. *He sheathes his Watch katana behind his back.*
forbearanced: (tally-ho.)

[personal profile] forbearanced 2012-01-19 08:01 am (UTC)(link)
[A nod, and then Koujurou was shedding his skin easily, warping fully into the Black Dragon right within Auron's reach.

Good timing on his part, really: one of the kishin on the street in front of them had noticed the pair. It let out a chilling howl, and came towards them.]
nofarplaneyet: (battleready)

[personal profile] nofarplaneyet 2012-01-20 02:48 am (UTC)(link)
*Auron grabbed the sword and the Soul Armor settled over the both of them as easily as he slipped on his bracer. He doesn't have a lot of time to attack, but he swats the kishin egg to the side with the flat of the sword, giving him a chance to size up his opponents.*
forbearanced: (glint)

[personal profile] forbearanced 2012-01-20 01:40 pm (UTC)(link)
[Koujurou was watching the creature as well, even as he focused on keeping trained in on his partner's soul, lending him the power that they both needed in order to defeat their enemies.

The kishin reeled back with an annoyed snap of its jaws, and lunged for them again. It was pretty fast.]
nofarplaneyet: (sneeeeer)

[personal profile] nofarplaneyet 2012-01-21 04:19 am (UTC)(link)
*Their resonance was still a new thing to the Spiran, so even while he concentrated, sometimes his control wavered. Especially when something with teeth and speed tried to attack.

This time he managed to twist the sword so the edge hacked the kishin egg across the face. If he could figure out how he called the lightning, that would help.

But he couldn't jump that far ahead. First he had to put all that trust in Koujurou like he did before and let his Soul Armor protect them both.*
forbearanced: (hn.)

[personal profile] forbearanced 2012-01-22 07:11 am (UTC)(link)
[And that trust was enough. Koujurou knew his cues well, especially after dealing with a Meister like Vergil. The blade wreathed itself in electricity, stunning the creature.

Now they had a good opening.]
nofarplaneyet: (determined)

[personal profile] nofarplaneyet 2012-01-22 05:33 pm (UTC)(link)
*An excellent opening as Auron whipped the lightning-encased sword across the kishin egg, severing its head from the rest of his body.

It felt a little like times long ago, when he stood side by side with Jecht and Braska. Or even with Yuna's party. Knowing that someone was there to cover your back. Koujurou would be that kind of person (maybe friend?) too. That hesitancy he hadn't realized was in his chest started to unravel.*

I feel like we could handle more than just this. How about you?
forbearanced: (can't touch this)

[personal profile] forbearanced 2012-01-23 03:06 am (UTC)(link)
I believe we can.

[He was confident, at any rate, that he could watch his Meister's back in the same way that he had watched Vergil's, or Date's. Whatever he lacked in skill, Auron would make up for. Whatever Auron needed, he would provide.

That they were friends, in his view, only made it easier.]
nofarplaneyet: (heh)

[personal profile] nofarplaneyet 2012-01-24 02:47 am (UTC)(link)
*Auron couldn't read his partner's thoughts but he could sense the rising confidence. It washed through him, mixing with adrenaline.

Two more kishin eggs lumbered down the street, not far from their position. The Spiran raised the sword with both hands and grinned.*

Are you ready?
forbearanced: (smile)

[personal profile] forbearanced 2012-01-24 04:00 am (UTC)(link)
Always.

[The first kishin was sweeping ahead, impatient, jaws snapping.]
nofarplaneyet: (sneeeeer)

[personal profile] nofarplaneyet 2012-01-25 02:45 am (UTC)(link)
*Auron sized up the rushing monster, grabbed the sword with both hands and stepped into a swing that cut it half as it jumped in the air. Seizing onto the momentum, he sprinted for the other kishin egg, lighting crackling all over the sword.*
forbearanced: (ready to run you through.)

[personal profile] forbearanced 2012-01-25 12:36 pm (UTC)(link)
[The monster recoiled; fear, however, prevented it from moving away. The sword cleaved right through it, as though it were butter.

The excess electric energy from Koujurou's Weapon crackled in the air.]
nofarplaneyet: (Default)

[personal profile] nofarplaneyet 2012-01-26 02:15 am (UTC)(link)
*Three kishin eggs carved through like nothing. Auron chuckled to himself.*

Do you feel all right? You're not hurt or anything? *The Armor still feels like it's in place but who knew what these kishin eggs could do to a person?*
forbearanced: (masamune-sama no.)

[personal profile] forbearanced 2012-01-27 05:32 am (UTC)(link)
Not at all. Few things can affect me while I am in this form.
nofarplaneyet: (Default)

[personal profile] nofarplaneyet 2012-01-28 04:34 am (UTC)(link)
*He takes a cursory look around; they appear to be kishin egg free for now.*

Go ahead and change back so you can grab those eggs.
forbearanced: (glance.)

[personal profile] forbearanced 2012-01-29 05:06 am (UTC)(link)
[A sound of acknowledgment, and then Koujurou was shifting out. He took one glance around before taking the closest egg for himself.]

Where do you think we should go next?
nofarplaneyet: (determined)

[personal profile] nofarplaneyet 2012-01-29 11:05 pm (UTC)(link)
If there's different places where people are gathering for safety, they'll need someone to guard them in case there's more kishin eggs roaming around. Whichever one's the closest we can find so we don't tire ourselves out running around this place.
forbearanced: (masamune-sama no.)

[personal profile] forbearanced 2012-01-30 09:06 am (UTC)(link)
[Hums, looking about. Based on their current position, that'd be...]

We will need to press onward, to the east.

[Yeah, he kind of memorized the map.]
nofarplaneyet: (heh)

[personal profile] nofarplaneyet 2012-01-31 02:37 am (UTC)(link)
All right. Come on, partner. Let's go.
