[OPEN] Mission 155

Characters: Open to those who signed up here.
Location: An unmarked cavern system outside Death City.
Rating: Various.
Time: March 18th, sunrise.
Description: Shibusen agents brave underwater caverns to take out the first of three Madness emitters.

Missiongoers pile out of the mirrors early in the morning, just as the first hints of sun start to color the walls of the sandstone canyon red and purple; it'll be the last bits of real light they'll see for at least a few hours. The atmosphere is electric -- there're quite a few new (and old) arrivals who're eager to see some action, but just as many people who're feeling rather more apprehensive… And for good reason.

The only way to their destination is blocked by a few hundred yards of sunken tunnels. Luckily they've been provided with mouthpieces, breathing apparatuses with enough oxygen to last about ten minutes: more than enough time, provided that the guests don't lose their way in the dimly-lit, twisted caverns. It's as easy as following the person in front of them, right?

Upon emerging safely from the pool onto mostly-dry land, they'll find themselves in an immense cavern, illuminated by countless, blue fungi clinging to the walls and ceiling, looking like stars dotting a night sky. Already the first signs of the way Madness has been corrupting the wildlife are evident: the mushrooms exude strange spores that make some people's head pound the same way the increasingly noticeable Madness wavelength does.

As they travel further into the watery caves and explore its many branches, they'll begin to encounter creatures twisted by Madness: moles, snakes, beetles, centipedes, all grown to monstrous proportions, some with a venomous bite that quickly turns their victim feverish and delirious. The more daring fighters can easily dispatch those and delve even deeper, and it's near the source of the Madness, in the chamber housing the emitter itself, that they'll encounter the kishin eggs.

There're dozens of them-- eyeless, white, vaguely human-shaped things, but despite their blindness they have no problem finding their quarry, fighting with claws and exuding their own Madness wavelength. If the missiongoers can stand strong against the kishin eggs and the ever-present wavelength given off by the Madness emitter, Shibusen's specialists will have enough time to shut the machine down for good.

Still need to work on that confidence, Fuuka. Still, there was nothing wrong with what she was asking. However, in the corner of her eye she saw a group of meisters dragging their ways over to their tent. "Why don't we split up and tend to those new people coming in, and after that we'll see how things are going."
yamagishi: (That is their tragedy)

Fuuka's confidence will always be something she's working on. Darn that inferiority complex her parents gave her.

With that, she quickly got up and started to walk her way toward those meisters. However, before she does, she looks back at Aranea. "All right um...so I'll see you until then?"
consider8: (Oh why hello)

Aranea nodded, as her attention returned to the people resting on the cots. "I'll be waiting."

During those hours, Fuuka was trying her best to treat all the wounds and injuries from the others as soon as she can. The moment that she was done with one, another one seemed to be just as hurt. It seemed that no matter what, the list of people goes on and on. In the middle of doing this, she was starting to reconsider her career choice.

She wanted to go in the technology field and while she didn't like it, it was mostly because she felt no real sense of need for it. While using computers might help people here, she was starting to rethink what she wanted to do. Being a doctor here during war might be a bit more useful...

After those hours are over, Fuuka found herself sitting back down and trying to relax. She can sense that she might pass out soon but she can't just stop right there...
consider8: (I see what you did there)

Aranea had been working during those hours as well, though her business focused on more moderately injured individuals. She stitched up, splint up, and wrapped up more than a dozen people. On occasion, she looked up at Fuuka's progress and smiled. She was mostly right, but Aranea could also tell her insecurities caused some trouble especially on the few that got sent her way.

Still, she tried hard and she deserved the credit for all the hard work she did. Wrapping up her last patient (literally), she decided to walk over to Fuuka and gingerly place her hands on her shoulders to give her a massage.
yamagishi: (Looking at me looking at you)

[personal profile] yamagishi 2012-09-12 06:36 pm (UTC)(link)
Fuuka jumped a bit in surprise when she felt something on her shoulder. Once she turned around, she instantly relaxed and let out a sigh. "You scared me there, Arenea!" She let out a giggle before continuing on.

"You don't have to do that, I'm just fine!" Especially when she had to do so many stitches for those patients.

There are times when words would be an effective means of communication and expression of feelings. This was not one of them.

Enjoy your massage, Fuuka.
yamagishi: (One by one)

She was mumbling a bit, feeling a bit guilty but if this is what Aranea wants then...there was nothing Fuuka could do.

With that, she just didn't say anything and let her continue to massage her. "It seems like you've done this pretty often."
