[OPEN] Mission 156

Characters: Open to participants who signed up here.
Location: Lake Tahoe, CA
Rating: Various.
Time: March 27th, late morning.
Description: The second of the three Madness emitters outside Death City is the target for this mission. Bundle up, everyone -- it's gonna be a cold one.

The mission begins late in the morning, to allow the mission-goers as much sunlight as possible in the warmest part of the day. Not that it'll help much… Temperatures are well below freezing already -- unnatural even for early Spring in the mountains -- and a howling snowstorm threatens to blot out the sun, beginning up the mountain where the slope just begins to rise sharply.

The slopes themselves are fairly barren: a windswept-looking tree here, a cabin that may have once belonged to the snow patrol there, maybe a Madness-crazed bear or mountain lion. Those braving the storm are lucky enough to see five feet in front of their face in these conditions!

Those brave few who manage to make it to the top (enduring falling temperatures and defeating the corrupted fauna and hulking kishin yeti along the way) may come across their goal at the very summit of the half-mile-high mountain: the Madness emitter itself, in the eye of the storm… And one last obstacle: the Witch guarding it.

Zero decided to use his blade arm to blaze a mini trail in the snow to make it somewhat easier. Then he transformed his arm back so as not to tire himself out.

However, it looked like he wasn't alone.
motherofthesun: (White-Light Majesty)

[personal profile] motherofthesun 2012-10-01 12:43 am (UTC)(link)
No, he certainly wasn't alone.

"Ruf." She had to shake some snow from her fur to make the red markings stand out a little more.

This sound made him turn around. As the creature didn't seem hostile, neither was Zero. The red markings looked a bit like fire on the wolf.

"Are you trying to fight your way up this mountain too?"
motherofthesun: (Jubilant)

[personal profile] motherofthesun 2012-10-02 04:22 am (UTC)(link)
She grinned up at him, but tilted her head this way and that. She was, but wasn't. Ammy was just here to help lessen Madness down here since she was without a partner.

[personal profile] divide_by_zero 2012-10-03 01:30 am (UTC)(link)
That sort of looked like a "yes" to Zero. "Nice to meet you. I'm Zero. A Weapon. I don't have a partner so I'm trying to clear away some debris and monsters."
motherofthesun: (Jubilant)

[personal profile] motherofthesun 2012-10-03 03:02 am (UTC)(link)
She cocked her head. A Weapon huh? She gave him a nudge. She could lend him a paw... well, probably. If they didn't get along somehow, that was another story.
divide_by_zero: (stoic)

[personal profile] divide_by_zero 2012-10-04 01:47 am (UTC)(link)
What did the wolf want? "Did...did you want me to help you?"
motherofthesun: (Yes?)

[personal profile] motherofthesun 2012-10-04 03:28 am (UTC)(link)
She tossed her head with a huff and nudged him. Nope, not that. She was here to help him.
divide_by_zero: (hey!)

[personal profile] divide_by_zero 2012-10-05 01:35 am (UTC)(link)
It takes Zero a few moments for his systems to process what she wants. "You want to use me as a Weapon?"
motherofthesun: (Who are you again?)

[personal profile] motherofthesun 2012-10-05 07:52 am (UTC)(link)
Er, well, she nods; only if he wants to. Otherwise, she can just trot ahead.
divide_by_zero: (slash)

[personal profile] divide_by_zero 2012-10-07 01:27 am (UTC)(link)
"We can try it. Just give me a second."

Zero concentrated on changing form. First his arm, then his whole self into the glowing blue Beam Saber. The snow around him began to melt in the heat of the blade.
motherofthesun: (Thunder glaive)

[personal profile] motherofthesun 2012-10-07 07:36 am (UTC)(link)
Well, his form certainly reminded her of an aloof prophet. She approached and pawed, knocking him over, but then nudging him onto her back. She didn't move immedistely because... well, if they couldn't resonate before moving forward, that would be bad.
divide_by_zero: (attack)

[personal profile] divide_by_zero 2012-10-07 11:19 pm (UTC)(link)
This was different than trying to resonate with Six. There was something a bit...older?...majestic?...about the wolf. Zero had to really adjust how he resonated with the wolf.

A minute or two later, he felt something shift into place. There. I think we're okay. How do you swing me like this?
motherofthesun: (Jubilant)

[personal profile] motherofthesun 2012-10-08 07:53 am (UTC)(link)
Amaterasu waited, letting her soul remain steady as the resonation finally began to click.

Her ears flicked at his voice and her mouth opened as she grinned. "Ah, ah! A woman can't reveal her secrets that easily." Of course, she was only teasing.
divide_by_zero: (confident)

[personal profile] divide_by_zero 2012-10-09 01:41 am (UTC)(link)
Woah, the wolf had a voice. A kind of teasing voice, like a young human woman. Interesting.

Well however you can fight with me, let's do it!
motherofthesun: (Chasing the Rays)

[personal profile] motherofthesun 2012-10-09 06:13 am (UTC)(link)
'Young'. Hehe, such a compliment. She grinned and dashed off.

"Just get ready. Some people get a little dizzy."
divide_by_zero: (confident)

[personal profile] divide_by_zero 2012-10-10 01:28 am (UTC)(link)
Zero didn't even have to ask how that was possible when the wolf began to tear through the snow. He grinned and decided to enjoy the ride.
motherofthesun: Art From: http://gen-pekinduck.oops.jp/index2.html (Swift Beast)

[personal profile] motherofthesun 2012-10-10 07:04 am (UTC)(link)
Oh yes, enjoy the ride. You don't get much faster or fluffier than her in this weather. Not on the Guest side at least. The Madness is being diverted as well, unable (almost unwilling) to touch them.
divide_by_zero: (hey!)

[personal profile] divide_by_zero 2012-10-11 01:12 am (UTC)(link)
Are you pushing the Madness away? He only now noticed that they didn't seem to be affected at all.
motherofthesun: (What an odd scent)

[personal profile] motherofthesun 2012-10-11 02:22 am (UTC)(link)
"It's my ability. Calming wavelength reduces Madness and sometimes fully expels it."

She turned on a slope and darted into the trees. That way...
divide_by_zero: (hey!)

[personal profile] divide_by_zero 2012-10-12 12:43 am (UTC)(link)
That's a good talent to have. Invaluable more like it.

He felt the wolf change directions toward something in the trees. Was there a kishin egg lurking nearby?
motherofthesun: (The fight has only begun)

[personal profile] motherofthesun 2012-10-12 06:10 am (UTC)(link)
"Mhm. I thought so too, hehe."

Oh yes there was. A hulking on too. Attempting to use the forest as coverage to get down the mountain; that would not do.
divide_by_zero: (slash)

[personal profile] divide_by_zero 2012-10-13 11:53 pm (UTC)(link)
Zero lived for a good scrap. One could say he was built for it.

Let's take him!
motherofthesun: Art From: http://gen-pekinduck.oops.jp/index2.html (Thunderous Roar)

[personal profile] motherofthesun 2012-10-14 01:31 am (UTC)(link)
Amaterasu is already charging in at the yeti. It seemed to hear her, but it doesn't turn fast enough to catch her. She darted past, fur high and came around with a slide. Zero could probably feel himself whirling through the air.
divide_by_zero: (spin to win!)

[personal profile] divide_by_zero 2012-10-15 12:02 am (UTC)(link)
Wow, this really was a different way to fight! He felt a little disoriented until the wolf landed again. Let's try that again!
