[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!

"..."

Was that it? Leo was going through more than she first thought. Down on the street, it may be zombies, ants, and spiders with large ravens in the sky, but it was still an act of violence.

Without another word, she changed back and looked up at him, nodding. "Stay low and leave it to me then. I'll escort you to a shelter so you don't have to deal with this." Her expression remained neutral. She didn't enjoy hurting people, but in her line of duty, sometimes it was necessary. Right now, it was necessary if they wanted to survive.

He gives her a long look and shakes his head, looking half sad and half upset. Dammit, she didn't understand.

"No. That's not it. I'm a Half Naoto and it's natural for Halfs to revel in that kind of thing. Me not enjoying the sound of breaking bones or an enemy going down is like..." He makes an unhappy noise. "...It's unnatural."

Pushing past her, he gave her a serious look. They had cleared some of the street, but there were still several of those monster insects around. "Change back. I might be off, but I'm still the second in command of the Jammy Angels and I'll be damned if I can't do what needs to be done. There are people out there that I need to find." So there was no way he was just going to hide and wait until this all was over.

"All animals are violent by nature. I'm not understanding why, just because you're born a Half, you have to enjoy violence. What you are born as doesn't obligate you to anything."

She sighed and rubbed her temples, realizing she was lecturing on this when he still didn't know she was a girl. Still, dwelling into the explanations that would follow that revelation would waste more of their time. Naoto raised her head.

"... I'll change back for now, but if you begin feeling ill, I'll take over. I still have senpai's kunai and my gun..."

With that being said, she shifted back to her Weapon's first form.

He sighed and just silently shook his head. "Alright." Seems like she took him too literally, but in a way he was happy about it.

Picking up the gunblade, he realized that the confession had actually made it feel better for him. There was a lot less rejection coming from his side than before.

"Tell me when you need a break or if you see a way for us to get out and to a better place."

She takes everything too literally. Leo will gradually come to learn that.

Naoto's soul could resonate much better now that Leo had divulged a little more about himself and his thoughts. She still held a secret from him, but it wasn't a major negation from their connection. Perhaps she would tell him if he asked.

"I will." But for now, she was fine, her soul bringing in the surroundings sharply. Nothing to be wary of yet.

Maybe he'll ask one day, but this wasn't it. He doesn't think that there's any good reason for him to question stuff like that about her. Or, well, him as far as he is concerned. Expecting others not to ask him to just put his trust into them was a two-way street for him. He wouldn'T go digging until Naoto gave him a sign that it is alright.

Taking aim once more, he starts sniping at their enemies again, relying on her help to land good hits. "Thanks."

That was something Naoto was fine with. Handing out trust would be very unwise in certain situations. It was best to take precautions.

"You're welcome."
