[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!

Hiei's comment only gets a raised eyebrow] If I swing hard enough it gets the job done just as well. I just have to knock their heads off and they're barely hanging on to begin with.
[Pause] Still, thank you for helping me. I'll try to repay the favor some day.
no subject
You over estimate your strength, I think. [ Sure, they were decaying, but that wooden stick wouldn't last very long when impacting with solid muscle and bone. At least not very long, and with the way things were going, they may need to last hours to days. ]
I don't need repayment. Just don't get yourself into stupid situations. [ And then he's turning and walking away, shadowy as usual. Rei could probably follow him without much issue, though. ]
no subject
[She follows him for lack of anything else better to do at the moment]
Do you know how big the wave coming in is?
no subject
[ He resists a crack (just barely) about how she's being pretty useless anyway, running into alleyways like that, but he bites his tongue and continues on, sword at his side and brandished, ready for the next wave if and when they decide to show up.
He spares her a glance as he continues on, though his answer is pretty cold and calculating. ]
I don't know exact numbers, but it's large. We'll do well to stay up and out of the way until we found a way to deal with large numbers at a time.
