[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!

Yuuri was crying out in alarm while the spider was pulling him in. It all happened so quickly, and before he knew it, there was someone else yelling and jumping in while attacking the spider. Flailing himself around to see just who it was, he felt his eyes widen in surprise as Leo was attacking the giant spider from above.

"Leo!" The young Maou called out. Moving to get up, he'd momentarily forgotten that his legs were still boud - a forgetfullness that caused Yuuri to stumble before he reached down to pull at the sticky threads. It took him a moment to remember that he was a Weapon with a partial form, but when he did, Yuuri reached down to cut the web before he finally managed to stand.
lionborn: (quit pulling my leg)

at least it's only insects this time T^T

[personal profile] lionborn 2012-03-16 06:05 am (UTC)(link)
While Yuuri fumbled to free himself, Leo had his own problems. His own problems which were a very big spider that moving around until it managed to toss the Half off after a round of arachnid-rodeo. Landing on all fours, Leo had barely the time to curse as the spider went after him.

"Shit, the thing's of the grudge keeping type." He grinned, feeling not happy at all. A little louder and at Yuuri directed, he added, "Can you run?!"

This is definitely true /clings to Leo TT3TT

[personal profile] a_royal_flush 2012-03-17 04:09 am (UTC)(link)
Oh he could run alright, but he was going to run towards Leo. There was no way that he was going to let his friend stay in danger, especially not when the Meister had been so kind as to come and help him! That was why he cried out Leo's name as he began to run towards both the spider and his friend.

"I'm not going to leave you!" Yuuri called out as he dashed in to slap his sword against the spider's hind leg. Hopefully he'd get enough of the spider's attention to give Leo enough time to run away - or at least to get to him so then they could resonate to defeat the spider! Yuuri didn't have enough confidence in himself to be able to do it himself.
lionborn: (Oh holy... -!!)

you wouldn't happen to have a fly swatter, size XXXXL? T^T

[personal profile] lionborn 2012-03-18 05:47 am (UTC)(link)
Leo said some very bad things in his mother tongue when he saw Yuuri running in the wrong direction. The Half was badly enough distracted but this display of bravery (and idiocy, as he'd later repeat again and again) that the spider almost manged to plaster a shot of it's sticky net straight into his face if it hadn't been for Yuuri catching it off guard and toppling it off its balance for a precious second.

"Fucking SHIT!" Leo yelped as he jumped gracelessly into the air and back, demonstrating a feline skill of landing on his feet no matter how bad the jumping pose. Backing away quickly, he tried to find a way that would lead him around the spider without being eaten by it. "Didn't I tell you to RUN AWAY?!?!"

Noooo but what about this acme-sized bug spray?

[personal profile] a_royal_flush 2012-03-19 12:17 pm (UTC)(link)
Yuuri felt a sigh of relief knowing that he'd stopped the spider from attacking Leo. Of course he didn't think that the previous words he friend spoke were in relation to his actions, but more the situation the Half was in. All of those thoughts fled his mind though as the spider turned back around to sight him as Leo jumped away.

"I won't leave you behind!" Yuuri called out stubbornly in return. Trying to ignore the look of the spider, the young king dashed off the side as it tried to spray more webbing fluid at him. He really needed to get them out of here! And in one piece if he could help it.

Maybe if he just slid underneath the spider as if he was sliding to first base, he could strike at the arachnid's underbelly?
lionborn: (in defense)

That works too. =w=

[personal profile] lionborn 2012-03-20 02:11 am (UTC)(link)
"As if getting eaten instead is that much better," he groaned. Grabbing his makeshift weapon hard, he rushed the spider the moment its back was turned to him and brought it down on the thin part of it's midsection.

"Fuck!"

He jumped back as fast as he had come, hoping to stay out of the monster's reach that way. As long as it was just one spider and two of them they could keep it up and the spider busy like that, but the lion-Half held little illusions of how easily the tide of this battle could turn on them. "This is so not the time for any fucking heroics!"

He'd give a lot for a can of hair spray in addition to his lighter right about now.

/petpet <3333

"Neither of us will get eaten!" Yuuri called back. He was sure of that... or... at least mostly sure. The young Maou didn't want to think that either of them could become the food of this giant spider. Instead he wanted to believe that both of them would make it out alive.

With the spider distracted, Yuuri steeled his motives and made a quick dash towards the oversized insect. Ignoring the fact that he'd be sliding against the small bits of gravel along the street, he did just that as he slid neatly beneath the spider turned its attention back to Leo.

Hoping that it would work, Yuuri struck up towards the unprotected underbelly of the spider. He ignored the pain along his leg from the slid, and cried out in disgust as the blade struck and he was suddenly being covered by spider innards as the arachnid split open from beneath.
lionborn: (Oh holy... -!!)

[personal profile] lionborn 2012-03-21 12:43 am (UTC)(link)
Leo let out a strangled sound that was half a yelp and half te worst curse he knew when Yuuri made his move. It took the Half and the spider both by surprise and Leo reacted instinctively.

Jumping forward again, he grabbed the first best thing of the human that he could get his hands onto and pulled. His intention was only to get Yuuri quickly out of the spiders reach, but combined with the maou's efforts the maneuver ended up with them splitting the spider pretty much apart.

[personal profile] a_royal_flush 2012-03-21 12:32 pm (UTC)(link)
No sooner had Yuuri struck the underbelly with his partial form, did he feel his legs suddenly seized. Eyes widening, the young Maou couldn't help but feel a surge of panic well up as he shouted, "The spider's got me!" Little did he know though was that it was Leo pulling him out.

Digging the bladed arm in deeper, his attempt to not be pulled and eaten by the spider, he clenched his eyes shut both to stop the gore from pouring into them, but also to try and hope not to see the spider's fangs on the other end. It was only when he didn't feel any pain that he finally glanced up and saw Leo's face instead. His expression instantly showed his relief as he sighed loudly. "Thank goodness!"

Pushing himself up to sit, Yuuri didn't care that there was a spider flailing behind them, and he threw his arms around Leo's neck to hug the Meister in close. "You're safe!"
lionborn: (forget it!)

[personal profile] lionborn 2012-03-22 12:21 am (UTC)(link)
"And you're a god-fucking idiot!!" Leo shouted, giving the other boy a not so gentle knock on the head without even thinking about what he was doing. "You- What were you thinking- Oh FUCK eww, get away from me!"

The words were coming out without passing his brain as he performed a complicated little dance that included giving Yuuri a one-handed hug, a pat on the shoulder and trying to shove him away while he grimaced at he gore that was getting all over both of them all at the same time.

Have I ever told you how much I love their interactions? o3o

[personal profile] a_royal_flush 2012-03-23 06:39 am (UTC)(link)
Yuuri automatically reached up to rub at the area that Leo smacked. The words his friend shouted did nothing more than have him grin sheepishly, but that didn't stop him from throwing his arms around his friend.

"Aaaa sorry!" He called out sheepishly before pulling away. The spider was still flailing around, and Yuuri turned around to face the severely injured arachnid as he said, "We can fight this together." There was nothing more that he wanted than to protect his friends and everyone else in the city, and he would do whatever he could in order to protect Leo.
lionborn: (a healthier addiction)

<3333 I enjoy them plenty too!!

[personal profile] lionborn 2012-03-23 07:04 am (UTC)(link)
Leo gave him a look that spelled what he thought about this 'fight'. The thing was pretty much split in half and dragging its guts around, there was no way it was still going to do a lots of struggling unless you counted a spit in the face.

"I have a better idea: Why don't you turn half-poke-y again and I give you a hustle so that you'll fall and fillet it from above as well?"

Eeehe!!! :D

[personal profile] a_royal_flush 2012-03-23 07:18 am (UTC)(link)
The look would have been returned with a confused look, but as it was, he was too busy watching the spider trying to reorientate itself. If Yuuri thought too much about it, he might have made mention that there was more of the spider on him than remaining in the spider itself, but he thankfully kept that at bay.

"Hustle?" Yuuri asked. He'd never heard of that term before, and he wondered just what Leo had to do in order to hustle him... was that something he even wanted to know? He trusted his friend though, and whatever it was he would do it because he was sure that it would make logical sense later! That was why he partially transformed his arm as he glanced back to the spider and said, "Alright! What do I need to do?"
lionborn: (WTF?)

"in order to hustle him" that sounds somehow perverted XD

[personal profile] lionborn 2012-03-23 07:35 am (UTC)(link)
"What, really?" He gave him a perplex glance. Did that guy seriously want him to toss him on that spider with an half-transformed arm??

LOL I thought that you'd appreciate that :3c

[personal profile] a_royal_flush 2012-03-23 07:37 am (UTC)(link)
Glancing back over his shoulder, Yuuri regarded Leo with just as much of a confused look. His friend was the one who suggested it, after all! "Huh? What's wrong? Would it be better for you if I just transform all the way?"
lionborn: (uhm guys?)

you know me too well X3c

[personal profile] lionborn 2012-03-23 07:57 am (UTC)(link)
"Nope, staying like that's just fine." His expression fell into something that was half a mischievous grin and half a 'I can't believe i'm actually doing that'.

Taking a few steps back, he suddenly jumped forward and gave Yuuri a good shove - right towards the spider!

Yes I do xDDD

[personal profile] a_royal_flush 2012-03-23 09:03 am (UTC)(link)
There was that at least, but he couldn't quite help but doubt Leo's intentions when he saw the odd grin on his face. He wanted to trust his friend, no he did trust his friend, but there was something about the way Leo was looking at him moments before the other began to step away.

He was waiting to see just what the hustle was, and he found himself on the receiving end of it as Leo suddenly sprang forward to he found himself shoved directly towards the spider. Arms flailing out to right his balance, the young Maou cried out in surprise before he sighted the spider turning its attention onto him.

Waving his arms in front of him, whether the gesture was to protect himself or get him to stop no one knew, Yuuri unknowingly knocked aside the legs that came out towards him. His foot then caught a crack in the ground, and the next think he knew, the young king fell right into the spider - his bladed form sinking into the arachnid's head as he fell against it with a yelp.
lionborn: (pfffff idiot!)

~<3

[personal profile] lionborn 2012-03-24 06:13 am (UTC)(link)
Seeing the other flail, he wondered for a moment if that really had been such a good idea (of course it hadn't, but he had though that that spider was pretty much dead!). He flinched as Yuuri suddenly went one on one with the spider and then dealt with it like a real pro.

Whistling loudly to hide his scare, the Half sauntered over (he wasn't preparing to jump ahead and drag the human out of its reach if it still kept moving, really).

"Wow. Was that skill or just dumb luck~?"

/o/

[personal profile] a_royal_flush 2012-03-24 01:11 pm (UTC)(link)
The spider fell to the ground after his stumble, but Yuuri's heart was still pumping harshly against his chest. Had that really happened? Eyes wide, he barely heard Leo speak behind him as his mind was still in a daze.

"Huh? What?" Yuuri asked as he pulled his gore-soaked blade from the spider's skull. Glancing back over towards Leo, the young Maou's surprised look was quickly overshadowed by a sheepish one as he muttered, "Aa I'd say more dumb luck." He wasn't about to lie about that.
lionborn: (these hips don't lie)

[personal profile] lionborn 2012-03-25 09:08 am (UTC)(link)
"Hehe, such a good boy and he's honest too~!" Leo continued his teasing as he patted Yuuri on the back and carefully brought himself between the human and the large insect. Yarg, that thing was definitely dead! Grimacing, he gave it a kick with his shoe before turning back to Yuuri, dropping some of his cheer.

"But we should get going, I don't think this is a good place for hanging out right now." Fuck, the whole city was a bad place for hanging out right now!

[personal profile] a_royal_flush 2012-03-25 12:42 pm (UTC)(link)
"Eh?" Yuuri asked, the confusion evident on both his face and in his tone. He winced automatically as he felt the pat against his back, but the fond gesture was one that he didn't miss. The young Maou did miss, however, the fact that Leo had placed himself between the spider and himself went completely by Yuuri's attention.

"Mmmhm you're right! Besides there are a lot more of these guys out there that could hurt others," he said with a nod despite the loss of some cheer from his friend's expression. While Leo might not have had such thoughts in mind, Yuuri definitely did!
lionborn: (bruised and still alive)

[personal profile] lionborn 2012-03-26 05:06 am (UTC)(link)
"Yeah. Let's see to it that we don't join their ranks. Ya got anybody you're looking for or a place to go?"

Most of the monsters had come from that side, meaning that they would first have to head in the direction of the center no matter what. Leo had a bad feeling about it, but he didn't say anything about it. It'd be best if he could drop Yuuri off with a group of friends or his Meister or something. He still needed to look for some people and it wouldn't be good the drag the other into this.

Sorry for the delay on this reply TT3TT

[personal profile] a_royal_flush 2012-04-05 11:00 am (UTC)(link)
"Never! That's something I wont allow," Yuuri said with every bit of confidence that he had. The young Maou would do whatever he could in order to prevent that from happening. While he had his homes back in the other worlds, this one had become one for him as well - one that he wanted to protect.

"I was trying to find Teresa when I got attacked."
lionborn: (am I suposed to believe you?)

it's fine, sorry for ME being late with my reply! ;;

[personal profile] lionborn 2012-04-10 04:40 am (UTC)(link)
Leo didn't share his confidence and his expression wasn't hiding it. "Can't say that know somebody with that name. Is there a place where you think she'd be?" He wasn't sure if it really was a she they were talking about, but the name sounded like it. He hoped.

We can be awesomely slow together o3o

[personal profile] a_royal_flush 2012-04-10 12:28 pm (UTC)(link)
Yuuri nodded in return before gesturing towards the direction of the park. "She's always in the park whenever she's not in the apartment," he offered before peering back up to Leo, "But I can go and find her by myself. I don't want to keep you from wherever you're going. I'll be fine by myself."
