[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.

Whatever it was, he was already sick of it, its ugly face and that damn laugh. His sword was like a weight in his hands at this point (he barely noticed the ribbon coming undone from his arm), but he brought it back up again anyway, swinging at the clown's neck. He'd like to see it keep laughing when its head was cut off.

The ribbon remained curled on the sword, adding more weight as she tried to stay far away from the clown-looking thing. It really didn't look like any Kishin egg described to her before.

Right. So, it was like a Kishin Egg (or maybe it was a Kishin Egg?). He couldn't hurt it with his sword, he had to use a Weapon, which meant he had to hit it with Rosalia. His thought process was interrupted by what sounded a lot like people screaming in blood-curdling terror outside. He could only assume that the Madness this thing was producing was spreading even further now.
He tried to stand up, but noticed his sword hitting the ground, Rosalia's Weapon form almost sliding off of it entirely. He reached out for it to try and tie it more tightly around his sword again, but found he could barely lift it - it was heavy as a boulder. When it hit him what was happening, he couldn't help but shake his head.
"Shit. We gotta regroup, we're way the fuck out of sorts here." Their Resonance was totally shot right now to the point where they couldn't fight this guy, that much was obvious. One eye on the clown, he started backing up - when Rosalia took her normal form again, he was gonna take her and bolt out of this place. Once they put some distance between themselves and this thing, then they could regroup.

"I'm sorry!"
Regroup? Ah, she hadn't realized it, but there was yelling outside. And what of the clown's-- Ahhh, he was hurt too! She was doing a terrible job. Her fears were keeping her from assisting anyone. Hurriedly, she changed back into her normal form, glancing back at the clown. Had she effected it at all?
Curious, but Dirk said they had to flee...! He was fast!
