[Event Log] Mission #202 - San José

[soul_mods]

Characters: OPEN to those who signed up for the mission here, assigned to San José
Location: San José, Costa Rica
Rating: Varies
Time: May 29th
Description: It's an evacuation! Get people out of there and keep the kishin eggs off of them!



They arrive to sirens, frantic car horns, and shouting voices. The local police are frantically trying to maintain some sort of order: Between soul-eating monsters, panicked people and worse - people who step forward and swear they can take them on - they have their hands full. They're awfully glad to see you, and are happy to point you in the direction of where they'd last seen monsters.

But there's no need to be pointed, they're everywhere, both old and new as they're attracted by the fear and the promise of a feast of souls. Combined with spiking madness making them inconsolable and the shadows passing overhead - witches here to catch a damn good show and 'help things along' - the people here are in dire straits.

It's your turn, agents! Get the civilians out of there, and give the kishin eggs hell, but don't let a witch spot you!

"Yes... the Madness Manipulation Machine." She remembered that episode very well. A number of their friends had been affected by it and for a while, Raidou had avoided contact with many of them.

Naoto glanced back at the two civilians, watching as they ducked into a janitor's closet before turning ahead again. The Kishin egg were indeed waiting in the darkness, anticipating their arrival a few feet away from the landing...

"... What?" Naoto raised an eyebrow, but then the other shot up. "Oh. Yes, you did."

"Badass." Well, that was another one for the books. All he needed to do later was report his progress to Dr. Stein and fine-tune his practice. If he could perform the ability while under attack, he was well on his way.

But for now, a few kishin eggs were waiting for him, weren't they? Kanji rolled his shoulders and took off into the dark hallway. He'll just have to make himself bait for these last few, he could take 'em all on: That Soul Descent was channeled into the ground, trembling the wooden floors. But, more importantly, it released the signal of his soul. Hopefully, that wave was appetizing.

If there was one thing he could rely on, it was the mindless hunger of demons.

Kanji was making progress which was expected after all his work. If she didn't keep working, he would eventually surpass her.

Naoto remained silent, letting Kanji make the first move and effectively rattling the ground and the eggs. Her soul followed the wave, getting a better and much faster reading of the floor. Three figures regaining their footing and now scrambling towards the Meister who unveiled his powerful soul. Any soul that desired more strength faster would go after it.

Her eyes flickered and the next round of ammunition was prepared. Just in case, she set aside some energy to encase her blade if he drew it out. "Let's clean up."

Hook, line and sinker. He didn't need any senses to know that they'd taken the bait. Their footsteps were thunderous against the floor, and in the dark he could hear wooden doors being slashed open, and animalistic cries of unending bloodlust.

Kanji listened for that telltale click, and with a spark of energy through their link, more ammunition was prepared. His lips twitched into a grin.

"Yes, ma'am!"

With a whirl of the gunblade, bracing it in both hands afterward for balance, he saw no need to keep them waiting. He charged, and wasted no time in getting started.

These bastards had no idea what they were in for.
