EVENT: The Attack of the Clowns

[soul_mods]

Early in the morning, those who had brought one back would find the bird keychains they brought back from their trip to that skii resort doing something...strange. The small eyes on the things started pulsing with a faint light that might go unnoticed at first. It doesn't stop though, and keeps right on pulsing for the rest of the morning.

Shortly, before noon, the light stops pulsing and shines bright enough to be uncomfortable.

Two things happen at once when it does.

One of these things is this: within a 50 meter radius of every keychain, strange ripples appear in the ground. From these ripples, something that is barely humanoid in shape slowly ascend. Their colours range from red to silver to yellow to purple. When they've materialized all the way, the Clowns immediately spring into action, attacking anyone nearby and, if there is no one, move in whatever direction they were facing, seeking victims.

The other thing that happens is a voice, young, lilting and feminine, being projected through the keychains.

""Thank you for all that you have done: none of this would have been possible without your contributions. I would thank you all in person except I don't believe I am really welcome here. Which is a pity as I hadn't gotten to meet all of my lovely victims the first time around. Please accept these children as a token of my appreciation instead. They are a little, ah, crude, but I do hope you will all play nicely~."

You're here now. Think you can help me get to my feet? We have clowns to kill.

[computations]

Rather than fighting, I believe you require medical attention.

[ritsu_kouyou]

I'll be fine, Sion. I feel a lot better now that I've expelled a lot of that energy. Those things need to die. All of them.

[computations]

....you are still injured.

[ritsu_kouyou]

So? It happens. [A lot, because she's too stubborn.]

[computations]

And you should get treated before you exert yourself.

[ritsu_kouyou]

We don't have the time for that, Sion. Those things need to die. I'm fine.

[computations]

...hmph. Just note that I am going to do what you say but not without complaint.

[ritsu_kouyou]

You know I know that you'll stop me when it's absolutely necessary. This isn't that time.

I'm just glad you're with me now.

[computations]

I.....I am glad too.

[ritsu_kouyou]

[Hand on Sion's cheek, Akiha leaned forward to rest her head against her girlfriend's for a moment.]

Okay... let's go kill some clowns.

[computations]

F-Fine. But you will certainly hear from me later.

[ritsu_kouyou]

I'm certain I will, but this takes priority.
