[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.

The blood flow was thankfully light but it slowly leaked out while her body's natural defenses were working to plug up the holes.
no subject
"How bad?"
Despite being in as much pain as she was, blouse sticking to her wound, Akiha was more concerned about Sion's condition than her own. Mostly because her partner had never been injured in battle before...
no subject
So scientific. So...Sion. She leaned over and rested herself against Akiha and closed her eyes. Hopefully they weren't vulnerable but Sion needed this for a few moments. Just a few short moments of emotional support would be nice.
"Are you doing okay yourself?"
no subject
"So, you're bleeding." She could smell blood, but she was pretty sure it was her own, and it was making her acutely aware that she could taste blood. Hopefully that was her own from her lip and not the lingering blood from the man shed bitten.
"...my entire side feels like it's on fire."
no subject
Sion was certainly worried about Akiha and was in no position to help. Yes, they needed to find a healer somewhere and hope they weren't already bogged down. If they were, Sion and Akiha would probably find themselves lost in a triage system.
no subject
"...need to lay here for a bit more ." She closed her eyes and drew in a pained breath. "Sion, I... I'm sorry."
no subject
Since they were going to sit here for a few more moments, Sion would take the chance to rest too. No sense in standing up if she was going to just wait there.

Akiha just wanted to stay there, but knew they couldn't. Between both their injuries, they weren't going to be much more help in this mission and they needed to get to the medics. The prospect of getting over there just wasn't appealing at all.
Slowly, she sat up groaning as her shirt pulled free from the wound on her side. Once there, she leaned against Sion's back, resting her head against her partner.
"Can you navigate us to the medics? I... I can't remember where it's set up at."
no subject
She shared the weight with Akiha. Sion too needed the rest so she sat back with Akiha against her.
"A few more minutes may be required."
no subject
It was a stupid thing to say and an obvious one given that she probably wouldn't be able to stand without Sion's help. But still, she said it in some subconsciousness attempt at comfort.
no subject
"Come on."
She offered a hand to Akiha to help her stand up.
no subject
"...okay. Slowly."

"Mm. Which way? You lead."
