CAACAAAW! (The falcon takes flight once more, spreading its wings wide before diving down. Using the speed to drive it higher in a swooping action. He circles the skies of Cairo looking for something, with eyes narrowed and senses sharpened.)

*A dog runs through the streets, completely and utterly lost. His orange jacket stands out in the dull streets*

(The falcon catches sight of the dog and divebombs the ground, spreading its wings wide to slow itself before landing and to halt the dog.) KAAAAW! (The bird eyes the dog, something about it seems off, aside from the orange coat. He would proceed to walk around the dog, his sharp talons scratching the cobblestone road.) Caaaaw... (Upon returning to the front of the dog, the bird stands tall and waits for any sort of reaction.)

...Woof? *Koromaru eyes the bird cautiously, muscles tensed to move at any moment. Something about the bird creeps him out. Maybe it's just that he hasn't seen a falcon this close before. Most birds flew away when he dashed up to them*

(The bird notices the dog tense up, he licks his beak as he gives a smug grin.) Kawkawkawkaw! (Suddenly the air around the two seems to drop in temperature significantly, almost becoming a haze of frozen air. From behind the falcon appears a large frozen skeleton in the shape of a prehistoric falcon-like creature. The figure boasts six arms and green gem-like eyes. Though the creature should only be visible to Stand users or anything akin to that.) Caaaaw... (The falcon stands completely still, as if calling out the dog.)

*Koromaru's ears flatten* Grr... *He glares at what he can only assume is a Persona. And as far as he can tell, this bird and its "Persona" aren't friendly.*

KAAAAW! (Pleased with the reaction, the pair of birds screech loudly as the air grows colder. Before long a massive spear of ice appears above Koromaru, with a glint in Pet Shop's eye, it drops.)

*Koromaru tries to dodge, but the spear of ice grazes his side. He yelps a little, then glares at the "Persona"* AROOO! *His collar flashes with the sound of breaking glass, and a three-headed canine appears in a burst of blue flames. It casts Agidyne with a snarl, sending a blast of fire at the icy bird.*

*a light portal appeared and sora gets out of the portal, the portal disappeared, but sora feels tired a little because the weather in Egypt is hot* It is hot... Just like Aladdin's world, hopefully resist the weather here...

(Pet Shop grins at the incoming wave of fire and uses the sudden rise in heat to catch an updraft and dodge, Horus however is not so lucky and gets hit before he can disappear. The feedback from the burn causes Pet Shop's flight pattern to falter slightly.) SKREEEEE! (The bird glares at the mutt and his eyes narrow. He then closes his wings and divebombs Koromaru, flipping in the air to strike his neck with razor sharp talons, the burn still causing his movements to be worse than normal.)

*Koromaru whirls around and is rewarded with razor-sharp talons striking his head, although his collar gives his neck just enough protection.* Grr... Arf, arf! *He pulls out a knife from his coat, slashing at the falcon's stomach*

*notices koromaru and pet_shops fighting* Hmm.. Is that a dog? Fighting a penguin...? Well I'll go there to see what's going on. *goes to them to see the fighting*

KACH! (The bird is tossed back by the strike, his abdomen bloodied. However he corrects his trajectory and lands with ease. Noticing the gash across his body, he takes his left wing and wipes off some blood before bringing it to his beak. With a smirk, he licks the blood and glares at Koromaru.) CAAAW! (He spreads his wings and awaits the next move.)

*Koromaru pays no attention to Sora. The bird is the most important issue.* Awoo! *Cerberus appears once more, this time casting Maragidyne to send a wave of fire at the bird. Koromaru runs into the flames as they are sent out. As in, actually running right into the fire.*

(The bird again uses the fire to rise rapidly into the air, however he struggles to find his opponent in the sea of flames.) CAAAAW! (Clearly irritated, the bird summons Horus once more, which Sora should be able to see. Horus then launches a rain of icicles onto the sea of flames. The ice would melt prior to heating the flames in order to act as a sprinkler of sorts, the efficacy of course depending on the strength of the flames.)

(This is Horus cause I think I didn't do him justice...I mean skreeee!) https://vignette3.wikia.nocookie.net/jjba/images/d/d5/Horus_revealed.png/revision/latest?cb=20150411065105

*sees Horus* Is that the one who's responsible for making these things? *sees koromaru* I wonder if the dog can see the bird too... I have a bad feeling about this to him...

(That thing*, not bird)

*The ice and fire cancel each other out, and Koro is left standing where the falcon once was. He glares at the bird and summons Cerberus.* Grr... *Koromaru and Cerberus growl in unison. The latter's three sets of teeth gleam in the sunlight. The display is enough to strike fear into anyone watching, and is intended to leave the bird frozen with terror.*

ooc: Evil Smile, obviously

ooc: smol bump

(The bird feigns fear but then smiles devilishly. As a warrior of DIO he doesn't know fear.) KAAAKAW! (Suddenly a light shines from a satchel attached to Pet Shop and his eyes go wide before narrowing and darting around the environment.) Caaaw.... (Horus launches a flurry of icy wind at Koromaru to disorient him as the bird locks his sights on a golden glow some 100 meters away. He begins to fly towards the light.)

(Sorry! Life called! I mean KAAAAAW!)

ooc: It's cool- er, woof! ic: *Koromaru closes his eyes as the icy cold cuts into his fur. He shivers and looks up at the sky* Woof? *He looks up at the sky and attempts to follow the bird, although he has to run as fast as he can to even keep up with the speed of a flying falcon*

(The bird struggles to fly at top speed due to the lingering burn, and Koromaru does indeed catch up. Pet Shop attempts to use its aerial advantage to have Horus drop icicles into the ground, attempting to impede Koro's speed.) KAAAAW!!! (The icicles are probably only about 3-4 feet at most, and that's being generous as he is doing it on the FLY. Skreee...)

*Koromaru is forced to slow down to dodge the icicles, panting from running so fast. He skids to a halt to avoid another icicle before dashing after the falcon again, this time with a much larger gap between the two.*

*after pet shop's flying and when koromaru follows pet shop, sora was still here* I wonder what was all about, Maybe I should go now. *sora summons his keyblade and opens a light portal, he goes to the light portal and the light portal disappeared*

(The target is in sight, a bountiful tree in the middle of the desert. Pet Shop begins to glow brighter the closer he gets to the tree, and from the base of the tree there comes a bright golden glow.) Keeekaaaaw!

*Koromaru pants from both the heat and running, stopping a ways away from the tree to catch his breath. He shakes off some sand that got in his fur and braces himself for... whatever is happening.*

(Pet Shop skids to a halt as he dives towards the light.) Kaaaw!! (Suddenly, a golden wrapped arm rises from the ground and towards Pet Shop, he reaches out to it with a talon.)

Grr... *Koromaru watches, glaring at the arm. He has no idea what's going on, but he's also not sure what to do. In the end, all he does is let Cerberus form behind himself* ooc: food time, shall return soon

(Pet Shop takes the wrapped arm with a sly grin, putting it into his satchel, Koromaru could make out what would appear to be a smaller wrapping of what would be a pair of eyes.) KEKEKEKEKAAAAW! (The falcon turns around and sees Koromaru caught up to him more or less. He scoffs before summoning Horus.) Keh... (He glares at the dog and waits for him to make a move.) (Food time will be soon for me too, no worries my dude.)

Arf arf arf! *At Koromaru's command, Cerberus pounces, sending out a fiery Agidyne blast. Koromaru stays where he is. His Persona would be able to overpower the bird in a melee fight more easily, anyway.*

(The sudden attack catches Pet Shop off guard and he is forced to block the attack with a wall of ice. He crosses his wings in front of himself as another measure of defence, however the attack didn't give enough time for a proper barrier and the wall is shattered, tossing Pet Shop and Horus back a few meters.) CAAW?! (As he is tossed through the air, his satchel comes loose and the two corpse parts lay on the ground, glowing a brilliant gold. Meanwhile, Pet Shop rises from the ground with Horus, glaring at Koro.)

Arf, arf! *Koromaru leaps forward along with Cerberus, the latter attempting to send a close-range Agidyne out at Horus upon landing.* *With Cerberus fighting the birds, Koromaru makes a dash for the satchel*

(Pet Shop recalls Horus and uses the burst of flame to rise once more, granted the close range causes him to get hit as he rises.) KEH!? (Pet Shop glares at the "Stand" and summons Horus once more, launching a flurry of ice at Cerberus. None of the icicles too large, roughly about 4 inches long and lots of them.) KAKAAAAW! (Pet Shop is too focused on the "Stand" to notice Koro's advance.)

*Koromaru lunges for the satchel, but his jaws fall short when his body stiffens in pain. Cerberus howls as the icicles pierce it, nearly fading away from the sheer number of hits.*

(Pet Shop notices Cerberus begin to fade and goes in for the finisher. He recalls Horus and divebombs Cerberus, aiming for the center head's neck.) KYAAAAAH!!

*Cerberus vanishes from the final blow, but the distraction allows for Koromaru to grab the satchel. He huffs and slings it onto his back, then dashes away from the bird. All he has to do is avoid the birds until the Persona Break ends.*

(The dog makes off with the Holy Corpse parts. Pet Shop goes to give chase but the battle has left him unable to fly with any sort of speed and he is forced to the ground. He glares and screeches at the dog as he leaves.) KYAAAAA KAAAAAW!!

*Koromaru keeps running until he reaches the outskirts of the town. He collapses just outside it from the damage and exhaustion. His muzzle nudges the satchel open so he can sniff at the strange things inside.* Arf? Woof...

(Inside the satchel are two Holy Corpse parts: the eyes and the right arm. Koromaru can clearly sense an odd power from the wrapped body parts, as though they are calling him to find the rest of the corpse, the reason would remain unclear for the time being.)

*Koromaru closes the satchel after he commits the smells to memory. He gets to his paws again and heads into the shade of a nearby building, curling up to rest. He'll certainly be keeping a wary eye on the sky from now on...*
