[OPEN] Mission 157

Characters: Open to participants who signed up here.
Location: Nocturne Bazaar
Rating: Gen.
Time: April 5th.
Description: The battle to destroy the last of the three Madness Emitters is upon us.

It happens early in the morning: a strange and lingering air of disquiet, almost imperceptible even to those trained to recognize it for what it is, quickly rising to a mind-shattering crescendo. On the floating island above the city, black liquid bubbles up from the cracks in the cobblestone streets and materializes into tall, thin, clown-shaped creatures. Oversized carrion birds take wing from the rafters of buildings, trailing dust from their dirty wings. The screams of civilians are clearly heard even from Death City so far down below, waking its citizens up from fitful, nightmare-filled slumbers.

The Witches are here!

It doesn't take long for the defenders to rally: Kid sends out the call to arms and, after admonishing all but the most skilled pairs to stay off the island, instructs those attending Mission 157 to prepare to get on the gondolas which still remain the only way to and from the Bazaar.

The streets are not as packed as they were the past two days, but there is no less commotion. The carnival workers and residents, fleeing from the marauding monsters, clearly have no hand in this deception. In between trying to save their lives, striking down the Black Blood-formed clowns and avoiding the talons of swooping bird familiars, the pairs certainly have their hands full.

At the epicenter of the battle is the yellow-bricked fortune-telling building. Waves of Madness emanate from it with an almost physical force. If you aren't careful, you may run into the black-feathered Witch guarding it…

By the end of the conflict, the island is incapable of supporting its own weight. With the help of volunteers shuttling civilians and fighters alike from the Bazaar to the ground, everyone must race back to the gondolas before the entire rock crashes in the sands.

Being a kid, Clint can't say he expected much from Obito, but emergencies weren't good times to suddenly decide to be choosey. That he had pretty good natural aim and was getting steadily better with a bow would just have to be enough. Obito was small though, and could apparently creep and jump on par with a junior agent, so Clint tagged along as the Weapon part of the duo. Transformation and resonance was still uncomfortable, but he'd deal. Approval hummed through their tentative link, mildly impressed by his temporary partner's sense.

Yep. Just find something ugly enough to shoot at. And being a carnival, there was plenty of ugly, clashing colors and tacky things. Clint knew all about that. Could use some redecoration up here.

Is this thing ugly enough? It hauntingly floats along the carnival streets, causing many people to run away, screaming in terror. Some people pause and look at it before looking at themselves and mentally breaking, as they babble and scream about their melting flesh. It doesn't show any emotion, except some type of wicked glee as it continues to move around the carnival's vicinity.
