Just in time for the show...
It's late in the afternoon as the sun begins to set beyond the horizon. A gentle breeze flows through the silent park as a crew begins setting up a stage. They busy themselves as a sign is planted firmly in front of the stage and a large line of seats. It seems a show will be beginning soon to break the silence within this park. A crowd of people slowly begins assembling to gather around. A few of them fill the seats while others set up blankets on the grass and sit with their families or loved one. It seems as if there’s finally some peace within this chaotic world as the sun continues going down replacing the blue sky with a vivid arrangement of red and yellow.
Multiple invitations were sent out for this event. The addresses they were sent to were oddly specific and the handwriting was oddly familiar to a few people but none of this is completely known to the receivers of such letters and they can only believe it is the work of some advertiser for this event. In the letter it is specifically mentioned that this event is free and thus does not require any kind of compensation.
A figure arrived, wearing what seemed to be a purple skirt and a black hoodie that covered their head and hid their face.
Receiving such an odd letter... It couldn't have been addressed to her personally, she thought. Regardless, if something big was happening, she should bear witness. Observe your surrounding, know the world you live in. That's what senpai would have wanted...
Danksuya receives a mysterious letter, reading over it it has directions to this show, curious enough he hops onto his bike and decides to check it out, once there he hops off and walks into the park
Lights flicker on throughout the area illuminating the stage. People in food service uniforms begin walking around the park selling an assortment of foods. Some even seem to be selling freshly bakes goods from the nearby bakery. The air seems to grow oddly cold but perhaps this is simply a breeze? Regardless a man in a suit walks up to the stage. He wears sunglasses regardless of it being evening and has a somewhat sleazy smile. The crowd grows silent as he begins speaking.
Manager: Good evening, ladies and gentlemen. Tonight, we have a very special performance just for you. Thanks to some funding from the community given through generous donations a free show was commissioned for your liking. We have a few performers today all of which are managed by myself. I sincerely hope…
The man goes on for quite a while longer as he begins rattling on about his own personal achievements. The audience seems somewhat bored as they quietly talk amongst themselves. Suddenly the air grows colder as if there was a sudden shift.
geno was confused when he go the invitation, but decided to go anyway. He wanted to learn more about the nexus. Feeling the chilly air, however, he felt something was off.
Hmm....
Hmm... a fetival, huh? I guess I can stay for a bit and see what's going on.
Danksuya takes a seat somewhere and attempts to wave over a vendor, trying to buy something to snack on, as the air grows colder he pulls on his uniform, keeping his arms crossed trying to keep warm as he listens to the manager
It's so cold, and it's only fall...
Hmph, you city people are spoiled if you think this is cold.
*Death wondered why he got an invitation but he went anyways in hopes to find any info to finding his brother, War. Also, he did not mind the cold at all*
Senri could feel the chill in the air. Another abnormality...?
Regardless, Senri drones out the speech. Noticing the people in the park sit so closely together, family, friends, lovers... Senri lowered her head as she sat in the grass, resting her forehead on knees. Suddenly, she hears a familiar voice...
Weird letter, right?
Senri quickly perked her head and looked to her side. She saw a small catlike entity, looking at her with a determined expression. Seeing him, Senri smiled, feeling relief, as if 1000 weights were lifted from her shoulders. She nodded
Yes... This large gathering of people is no coincidence. The speaker, whoever posted the letter, they intended for a group of people to come. Why, though?
The small figure responded with a nod.
Yeah. Something fishy is going on... Stay on your toes, alright? Don't get discouraged, Senri. Let's wrap up this mystery and head home! Don't worry, you're tough, and I won't let anything happen to you. We'll cook some good food, play games and get a nice nap in when we get home!
He smiled, making Senri tear up and smile back. She reached out and held the hand of the neko by her side.
...In actuality, Senri held only air. To someone else, she had been talking to herself this entire time. There was no one there. But Senri still nodded, touched by that unspoken speech, and stood up. The chill in the air intensified. Whatever was going on, Senri would get to the bottom of it, observe the situation, and if anything despicable was happening, act as a Phantom Thief would. She learned from the best, after all.
The manager begins shivering as he delivers his closing words. He quickly rushes off the stage and yelling can be heard backstage subtly.
Manager: Someone starts the heater! I didn’t know we’d need it this early on…
The air nearest the stage begins to be filled with some warmth as the first performers step onto the stage. The first performance is a band that begins playing songs that sound somewhat familiar. Such popular songs like Reach out to the T-Shirt, Battle for Everyone’s Socks, and, of course, Knights of the Holy Pants. Oddly enough, the band is also named Laundrysona and most of these songs seem to be ripped straight from other songs which is why they sound so familiar.
As the next performers take the stage after Laundrysona’s performance the grass farthest from the stage seems to start freezing. It begins rigid and almost uncomfortable to sit on. Several people can be heard complaining about it.
Hmm.... This cold air is mysterious.... The grass is also cold too.....
(edited by Geno)
*Death still does not care about the cold and he looked at the doll (Geno) before looking at the other people that had an interesting look that separate them from the other people here*
Danksuya turns to the women talking to him and shrugs, pulling a lighter out of his jacket and flicking it in order to heat up his hands as he responds
Just not used to it, that's all...
Danksuya then listens to the music, somewhat intrigued by the strange remixes but simply ignores it, more interested in the fact that the stage is freezing
Hm?
Danksuya then would get up and move towards the stage, looking around and touching the frigid parts, confuzzled by the strange sudden change
Wow, this music is terrible! Say, couldn't you book that one idol? Risette or whatever?
*Is so unentranced with the music, she notices the odd grass frosting.* Hmm.... grass doesn't usually frost that fast.... did someone leave a snow machine on or something?
[A man with a strange style of clothes enters the area with an invitation in his hand, and takes a seat]
Why was I invited to this place anyway?
(edited by Joseph-Joestar)
Senri sat back down in response to the decreasing temperature, tightening her hood and wrapping her arms around an unseen shape in front of her. She watched the band intently. It wasn't bad, just... Very covery.
Heheh, you warm?
The prior entity smiles, making Senri hold it closer.
It's freezing... You make it warmer, though.
What can I say? I'm obviously too much of a gentleman to allow you to be cold. My fur is yours any day!
Senri smiled, seeming oddly relaxed as she held an invisible something close to her stomach. She observed the concert with a happy expression, in contrast to those around her.
The next performers walk up to the stage. There’s about 30 of them in total and they all carry classical instruments. It’s a symphony of some kind, they begin playing as a light hissing can be heard from somewhere. It’s hard to tell whether the hissing is an instrument or something else. The air begins growing colder as the grass become more frigid and wet. Strangely enough little white flakes begin falling in certain spots in the park. Crew members begin whispering to each other in secrecy though someone who’s attentive enough might hear them.
Crew Member A: This is freaky…Should we tell the manager?
Crew Member B: You kidding? You want to get fired? He’s already in a bad mood from the cold and he’d probably blame the one who told him.
Crew Member A: Shit, you’re right…I knew today was a bad day for this and all those sketchy dealings to organize this too, like that weirdo with the black hair and white coat.
Crew Member B: Shush, keep your voice down. That guy probably has some dealings with the Mafia or something. Who knows what’ll happen if he hears you calling him a weirdo…
The crew members quiet down as the show continues.
*Death hearing what two of the Crew members were saying and it was time to find out what is going on*
*Death got up and begins to walk to where the two Crew members are*
*Notices the crew talking in a hushed manner, though can't hear what they're saying. Either way, the sudden snow causes her to look up at the sky, checking for clouds obviously.*
Okay.... this is reaching levels of strange it shouldn't be reaching.
Danksuya seems suspicious of the sudden snowflakes and decides to take things into his own hands, there have been too many strange happenings for this to be normal, looking around for an entrance to the back of the stage
There has to be an answer for this...
As Danksu investigates he manages to steal a snippet of the conversation, raising his eyebrows at the mention of a black-haired man in white
(edited by Danksuya_Suou)
[The man notices the crew members talking to each other]
I wonder what those guys are talking about. Maybe they're talking about how horrible their show is.
[He chuckles to himself]
The show continues as the cold begins freezing more of the surrounding ground. Up in the sky, a large dark cloud is forming oddly close to the park.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
As Death approaches the crew members look a bit intimidated by his abnormal appearance. They freeze up and start backing up.
Crew Member A: Oh s-shit, are y-you with the mafia?
Crew Member B: Idiot! You can’t just ask people that stuff!
The crew members continue panicking as they slowly try to get away.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Danksuya begins trying to approach the stage to find a way to get into the backstage. There’s a staircase at the side of the stage that leads up into it but there appears to be a couple crewmembers guarding it.
(edited by Shadow_Yu)
Relius observes the show from a far off rooftop, looking down curiously at the rather strange things before him... For some reason he feels like this whole thing will be worth seeing. The man grins to himself and simply waits, certainly there's no reason to get involved now even if it goes where he believes it shall.
Senri quietly observes the cloud forming above the crowd.
Is no one else noticing this? Her intention is now wholly drawn to the atmosphere rather than the concert. She gripped something unseen under her hoodie, ready for anything.
*Is too busy looking at the cloud to notice death's actions. Which is good, she'd probably be angry otherwise.*
Yeah, something very strange is happening here. At a free concert no less. Feels like the start of a terrible dancing adventure.
*She decides to slip around the stage as stealthily as she can...*
[The man gets up and walks over to the two crew members]
Hey you two, I have a few questions about this show.
Who the hell is the mafia... Anyways tell me what the hell is going on and who the hell is this black hair, white clothes guy and do it before I cut both of your heads off
(edited by Darksiders_Death)
Danksuya begins to think about how to get past the guards, as he flicks his lighter an idea sparks in his head, he then takes a few nearby leaves and grass, ripping it up and lighting it on fire before throwing it into a bush near the guards, hopefully, to draw them away from the staircase
The cloud begins swirling around as more hissing can be heard from within. Snow begins falling at a higher frequency.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Haruko tries to walk around the stage to notice Danksuya as he lights a few pieces of grasses on fire before setting a bush aflame as well. Two crew members guarding a nearby stage entrance rush over to the bush and begin panicking before speaking into a radio.
Crew Member C: Arson! I think we have a case of Arson! A bush is on fire! W-what? Calm down! This is serio- Yes, I understand. Sorry, sir…Right.
The crew members wander off in search of something to put the fire out with.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The two crew members from before continue backing away as Joseph approaches. They seem a bit more at ease with the appearance of the young man.
Crew Member B: Q-Questions?
They then begins panicking again as they start to run away when Death threatens to cut their heads off.
*Death let them both go away then begins to climb up to look for the source of the noise*
(edited by Darksiders_Death)
*Sees the fires set, and sees two other crew members go running away....*
Man, the city is a terrible place to try heroing about...
*She pays the staircase no heed. There has to be some kind of trailer for the boss, or the acts, around somewhere. If something fishy was going on, that was likely where the mastermind was.*
Danksuya satisfied that he distracted the guards smiles a small smirk, putting away the lighter and sneaking over to the staircase and checking around him for anyone that noticed him before walking up the stairs
Snow...?
Sentimentally, Senri reached out and caught the snow in her hand. Between her legs, a small figure catches it with her
.
Snow already, huh? It's pretty, isn't it?
Very... I love snow... I never had it where I grew up...
Well, now we're sharing it together! Maybe we'll get a lot this winter and we'll build a Jack Frost out of snow!
That would be lovely... I can't wait.
Senri smiles, relaxing as she talks to the one that does not exist in reality. All of her tension was gone from this potentially dangerous situation.
Hey, come back!
[The man begins to chase them but then stops]
It's not even worth chasing them down anyway. I'd rather answer these questions by myself.
[He walks around the stage looking for anything suspicious]
Gamma finally walks into the area, letter in hand. Figures he'd be late. He can't help but notice the weather pattern as he finally makes it to the crowd, particularly all the snow
Oh, the place is freezing over, don't see that often, well, usually its my fault anyways. Probably not a good sign.
Gamma begins trying to push his way through the crowd, to get a better look at the events unfolding around him.
Death tries to find higher ground to investigate the cloud formation further. The only higher ground would be to climb onto the roof of the stage itself. Luckily, there’s a ladder that leads to the roof.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Haruko find nothing behind the stage itself besides a small trailer with a sign plastered outside of it. The sign cannot be made out from a distance though.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Danksuya begins climbing up the stage as he checks to make sure he isn’t seen; however, two people notice him, Haruko and another individual. As he enters the backstage it immediately seems much warmer. The backstage is a large area with several rooms with labels next to the doors. The labels are in the following order: “Performersâ€, “Special Guestsâ€, and finally “Managerâ€.
As Joseph examines the stage he sees a brown-haired kid enter the backstage via a staircase. The kid seems cautious as he looks around before climbing the staircase.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Gamma looks around the scene as he pushes through the crowds. The area seems cold even for him as he notices several things going on at once: A girl talking to a seemingly imaginary being, a girl walking behind the stage, a strange masked figure over on the right side of the stage, and a brown haired kid walking into the backstage as a young man watches him.
(edited by Shadow_Yu)
Hmm.... small. All the more sinister! *sneaks up to read the sign.... agility was not a stat she highly valued in her prior adventures.*
*Death uses the ladder to get to the roof and is ready to kill the person who is doing this*
[Joseph looks at the brown haired kid]
What's a kid like that doing back here? He looks like he's up to something.
[He starts walking towards the backstage door]
Danksuya thinks that the people that noticed him probably won't get in his way, and deciding the best way to figure this out is the start at the top and move down the chain of command moving towards the management room and trying the door
Time for some answers...
Gamma surveys the suspicious people, well, one's crazy, so she's out, which leaves the four messing around on-stage. Gamma tries to push his way to the masked figure.
Looks like we might have our source. All sorts of people cause trouble around here, why hide your face unless there's something to look at?
Haruko runs up to the trailer to get a closer look at the sign. The trailer itself is beat up and the sign faded but it reads “Employee Loungeâ€.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Death climbs up the ladder to the roof as the hissing grows louder from within the cloud he can see the outline of some massive creature with gleaming reptilian eyes. It begins moving around wildly within the cloud.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Joseph follows the kid inside as he sees the same set of doors that Danksuya saw before. He also sees Danksuya walking up to the last of the doors before attempting to open it.
Danksuya himself begins opening the door as he hears voices within. Fortunately for him it seems the figures inside haven’t noticed him yet.
Manager: Dammit, what’s going on? It’s fall, there shouldn’t be snowfall in fall! This show is a disaster.
Another voice begins speaking, it’s a young sounding voice, not much older than Danksuya. The young man speaks in a calm collected yet condescending tone almost as if he just told a joke knowing the someone else would understand.
???: You should learn to relax. Not like I want that money back anyway. Just enjoy the show while it lasts.
The young man seems to snicker to himself.
Manager: Alright…hey, how’d you know to bring a heater? Uh, I’d hate to accuse you but did you know abou-
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Just as Gamma arrives at the masked figure they begin climbing up a ladder on the side of the stage.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The sky begins rumbling fiercely. The cloud formation begins expanding and contorting strangely as a set of bright blue reptilian eyes gleam out. The entire park begins to shake and the snow from earlier begins to form into a blizzard. The cloud suddenly is blow apart as massive dragon like serpent bursts forth. Its body seems to be a melting mass of a dark blue substance and its wings made of a frozen variation of the substance. It quickly glances at death then fixates its attention on Gamma down below for a moment. It looks at Gamma with some sort of familiarity before it dives down towards the audience with the goal of ramming directly into the crowd.
Gamma looks at the shadowy serpent, all the way until it dives towards the crowd. He shakes off his stupor and runs over to begin climbing the ladder. He yells at the masked figure (Death)
Hey, get back here!!! If you've got nothing to hide, then there's no reason to run. What's going on here?
Senri took notice to a familiar face confronting a strange figure in a mask by the stage... What was going on here...?
It was then that the sky opened up, revealing... A dragon of all things? Or was it a snake? Regardless, this wasn't natural.
Switching gears, she had to think fast. Even with her Persona, she couldn't stop something that big. Did the audience even notice what was going on? This was going to be too big to contain.
She moved quickly, rushing forward and seeking the shelter of the stage to avoid the impact.
*Thankfully she didn't go into the trailer right away because THAT'S A DRAGON!*
Well, I was right about one thing, the snow wasn't normal. How the hell did a dragon get here? In the real world!?
That stuff normally stays in the other world!
Er, um.... is it Persona time? I think it's Persona time.
Danksuya stands in the doorway with his arms crossed as he stares down the two figures, letting them finish their sentences before making a clicking sound with his lighter, altering them to his presence
*Death took out his duel scythes as he run and jumps off of the roof and while falling he slash the dragon*
Gamma makes it to the top of the roof after the figure but just as he reaches the top the figure jumps off trying to fight the dragon.
Death slashes at the dragon as it falls. The blade goes straight through the creature almost too easily as it flies away. It seems the attack repelled it from attacking the crowd. An icy aura surrounds the dragon suddenly as the blizzard intensifies. It’s once melting flesh hardens into a crystal-like exterior similar to its wings. It once again tries to dive into the audience below. Panic begins spreading as the crowds of people begin to run around wildly.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Haruko runs back towards the stage just in time to notice the giant serpent flying straight towards the large crowd of people.
Meanwhile, Senri tries to hide away from the creature managing to get away from the rest of the crowds and the stage itself.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Danksuya flicking his lighter seems to startle the young man. He turns around with a sense of fear in his eyes. He has black hair with a white coat and his eyes gleam with a bright yellow glow. Upon noticing that the boy standing in front of him was not in his 30s or wearing a red coat tough he begins smiling sinisterly.
???: No way…What a marvelous gift to arrive on my doorstep. Hold on a sec, champ. Just gotta finish some business.
Suddenly a dark portal forms under the manager as shadowy hands latch onto him and slowly drag him into the darkness below.
Manager: Wha-! Aaaahhh! Help me! What the hell is this?!? Somebody please!!!
Danksuya seems taken back by the dark portal, taking a few steps back and falling down onto the ground, almost dropping his lighter, just who is this guy? Sure he wanted answers but nothing like this, he then simply stared in shock at the strange man
*Death took out the Redemption and begins to fire 10 round at the wing of the dragon's hoping it will destroy the wings and making it notable to fly*
Yeah, no, it's for SURE Persona time.
Come on, Chiyome!
*A female figure appears! Blocked in blue mist by the power of the OOC hasn't decided to reveal that yet! But what the OOC can reveal is there's this sizable jet of water rising up to meet the descending dragon!*
Gamma puts upon warm to shield his face from the pelting blizzard. They watch Death’s impressive acrobatics and sigh
Well..... Unless he was trying to pick a fight with a dragon god, I think it’s safe to say he’s not causing it.
Gamma takes a deep breath and focused before heading right back down the ladder, oh boy
There were a few other people earlier.... Crazy girl, someone backstage.... That’s it, those two by the stairs...
After climbing down the ladder, Gamma would make his way towards the staircase he saw the brown-haired kid approach
I don’t imagine masked guy can hold it off forever. Best to find the source, and fast.
As the manager screams out in agony he falls completely into the dark abyss as screaming can be heard along with moaning. The portal closes cutting off the sounds as the black-haired young man sighs.
???: You know what the worst part is? He won’t even make a decent pawn…Oh well, now that, that’s taken care of…
The young man turns around laughing to himself with a twisted smile.
???: …Why don’t we have some fun of our own?
The young man pulls out a katana with a black blade as he slowly approaches Danksuya.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Death fires off his weapon at the dragon’s wings causing them to crack but not break. The stream of water flies into it slowing its fall as it dives into the water and begins melting into a fluid state. The water begins slowly freezing into place as reptilian eyes gleam out of it. Suddenly the water reforms into the shape of the dragon but increased in size as the blue substance absorbs the water into its being. The dragon refreezes its body as it finally decides to focus on the real threats to its well-being. It shoots out a torrent of ice and snow that violently flies into Death and Haruko with high-speed winds.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Gamma walks over to the staircase as he climbs up it into the backstage. He sees three doors the farthest one being wide open as the shadow of two people can be seen and a familiar voice can be heard speaking in an oddly cheerful tone.
Tatsuya rides on the back of Lucifer, night air blowing in his face as the Persona flies straight towards the mangers office. Tatsu himself sighing as he wonders why exactly Philemon felt the need to tell him something outright, regardless time for thoughts will come later as the Persona darts itself straight through a wall behind Chaos, roaring with rage as dark tendrils with blade's lash out at the thing before them. Aiming to slice into it's back as Tatsu himself leaps down to Lucifer's side and glares. He spares Another Him a moment's glance and suddenly has a guess why Phil sent him here.
"Well well seems like you've met someone interesting huh Chaos? But sorry I'm not about to let you play with him now... Instead let's begin the match shall we?"
The man draws Gram as flame dances upon the blade's surface, the color turning a piercing blue as he stands between his other self and Chaos. Gazing at the shadow with pure cold fury.
*Death knew he needed to end this quickly. He turned into his Reaper Form, Flew up to at the dragon, grabbing the wings and rips them off, he soon summon The Harvester and slash the dragon's head clean off*
(https://img00.deviantart.net/d5fd/i/2013/094/7/d/reaper_form_by_dragonfire1000-d60hivq.png
Gamma sighs upon hearing the familiar voice, and begins walking to the furthest door
Figures he’d Be involved. Always one for crowds, aren’t you? No ma.....
Gamma is near the doorway when Tatsuya crashes in on the party, loud as always, but perhaps it gives Gamma a chance. He approaches the nearest of the two shadows, the one remaining silent, and taps them on the shoulder
Well then kid, it might be best for us to leave this to the pros, eh? Come on, I’ll make sure nothing happens.
*Puts her arms up to block the ice and wind!* Oh come on, you think this is so bad!? I've had blizzards worse than--
*a sizable amount of snow blows right into her face as if to make a point.*
Okay maybe this is pretty bad! I guess we'll just have to deal with you the old fashioned way!
*The Persona vanishes for a moment, before reappearing below the dragon, slashing at it with.... something.... in the gut as it descends! Shame it has no glowing spot on its head.*
OOC: yeah... that dragon is dead... super dead now
OOC: That's not for you to decide.
OOC: I was just saying... im not saying thats what really happen
Danksuya is too stunned to move, simply breathing heavily as he closes his eyes, accepting his fate when a wall gets busted in, Danksuya opens his eyes and sees himself? What was going on? Well no matter now, there's a slight chance he might survive this now, he then gets tapped on the shoulder by the Pink Haired man, turning towards him and nodding, somewhat shaking as he gets up from the floor, ready to make a move
OOC: I mean the way you posted isn't exactly giving much room for something else to happen. It's kinda posting for the GM which is a little presumptuous.
OOC: im sorry that made you think that way
A dark portal opens as a giant hand covers Chaos. The darkness slices through the shadow hand reducing it to nothing. They turn around to face his old “friend†Tatsuya. No smile appears on Chaos’ face. Only rage spark up within him.
Tatsuya…of course you’re here to ruin my fun again. It’s been some month, huh. I imagine the final sin has already been taken care of. A shame that pride died out in such a way but probably better for me that his plan didn’t succeed. Would’ve been boring that way.
His face contorts in annoyance as a dark thought crosses his mind.
Perhaps a change of location would suit us well? Yomi…activate 60% of your power! Grydyne!
The air shifts around Chaos and Tatsuya as the stage itself begins crumbling apart. The foundation cracks as it’s blown away from a shift in gravity itself leaving Chaos and Tatsuya in a more open space.
Come! Kuraokami!
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The dragon sliced into pieces melts down into a fluid substance and soaks into the ground. It seems as though its been beaten but not killed though where it appears again is unknown…or would be if the puppet master wasn’t standing a few yards away on the other side of the stage. The icy dragon forms out of the ground and curls around Chaos.
Allow me to introduce you to my newest pet. I made it from someone you know. Interesting, isn’t it? How your bonds can betray you so easily…
Chaos seems to smirk now with his same old twisted smile.
Just like how a certain friend told you he wouldn’t go and get himself killed…
The dragon opens its maw to unleash a torrent of rigid icy shards at Tatsuya and Lucifer.
(edited by Shadow_Yu)
*Death turns back to his normal form*
(im going to go to sleep)
..... That's sixty percent!?
Who's this weirdo obsessed with his own power percentage? And why does he look like a bad color-inversion of an old guest of our's!?
Gamma sighs and motions for Danksuya to get next to him as the stage begins to crumble around them
Alright..... Sorry, do I know you? You seem.... Familiar... Anyways, you probably have a lot of questions. Just get next to me, I’ll keep us from getting hurt too badly, and will answer anything you might have afterwards, pk?
Gamma sighs and waits for Danksuya to get near him, still on the second floor, but outside of the room Chaos and Yu are fighting in. If he complies...
Shiranui, Ice Age
Gamma’s Persona bursts into life, weaving through the air around the pair and leaving a light chill in its wake. It would then begin to form a dome of ice around the two to protect them from debris
The flames of the blade rise up as Tatsu swings it towards the shards of ice, leaping straight off them and at the attack in an attempt to melt them mid air.
"So then, I guess that thing is... Lux, he's the one who said he wouldn't die. I'm gonna turn you into dust for this ya know? But... It wouldn't do for me to get too hasty here now would it, so maybe this is the part where you expect me to just rush in like an idiot? But nah I'm not pulling that here."
As the man's been speaking this whole time Apollo has replaced Lucifer and been charging... Something involving fire in it's hands, the summoner himself simply eyes Chaos and waits for a decent chance, shouting out to Haruko without even so much as taking an eye off his foe.
"I'll sum up fast kid! Guy calls himself Chaos and he's some reverse shadow version of Yu Narukami that killed the original and took his place! His Persona is some hell world that absorbs people he kills and also pretty damm strong, now quit wasting time talking and start shooting got it!?"
Danksuya stares at Gamma strangely, he definitely would have remembered someone as unique as him, unfortunately he doesn't and he shakes his head, noticing the immediate danger he sees no reason not to trust this person and quickly moves next to him
T-that power..!
Danksuya then seems to back up into the wall from the strange ice dragon Gamma summons, holding his head with one hand as he feels a wave of pain come over him
Gamma and Danksuya are protected from the debris by the dome of ice as the stage begins crumbling apart.
Chaos' smile widens at Tatsuya's words.
You act like I killed the stupid machine myself if you can even say that he was killed. Bet you're wondering how it happened too? Was it some heroic sacrifice or was it brutal and unexpected? Unfortunately, the truth is disappointing. He died from his own weakness. It burnt him right out. Useless to the very end. Sad isn't it? That just goes to show you that only those who can serve a purpose are those who survive in the end.
Chaos points outwards as the icy dragon uncoils to extend towards Tatsuya standing in the air to try and bite him directly with its jagged icy fangs. Meanwhile, Chaos pulls out the blade before holding it up. A shadowy aura surrounds the katana before solidifying it within a dark cocoon. The cacoon cracks off revealing the swords true form as four shadowy arms extend out of the ground and circle around him.
(edited by Shadow_Yu)
Tatsuya moves silently as the dragon darts at him, toying with something in his coat as he moves. Part of the dragon's attack still tears into his side as he moves straight for Chaos without even paying the icy beast heed beyond a partial dodge. Apollo follows suit as the energy in it's hands grows further.
"Oh I know you didn't kill him, I just don't care Chaos. You are my foe, therefore I will kill you. It's not a hard thing to figure out is it?"
His voice sounds cold and harsh as the man quickly tosses the frag grenade he'd prepared earlier at Chaos's arms, the thing blowing up as it crashes towards them. Tatsuya and Apollo making one final rush at their foe afterwards. The flames Apollo has gathered up finally bursting out around all three of them. A dome of blue flames about 10 feet wide and 8 feet high covering all of them. Tatsuya clearly trying to force this into an all out melee... Where time is on his side.
Oh, okay. Only those who can serve a purpose, huh? And who is it that gets to decide on that purpose, huh?
Some all-powerful know-it-all like you? Some big, fancy god?
I've heard just about enough, so let's get to the fighting part, huh?
The arms try to grab onto the grenade as they're blown away instead. They seem to deflate as they fall to the ground twitching occasionally. The flaming dome surrounding him as the dragons form begins melting into a fluid-like state as the flames around it burn brightly. Chaos looks around at the arms as they flop on the ground and at their pet who's now a melted mass of goo. Their face darkened they look up as a new light gleams in their eyes.
This is why you're never any fun. It's always just kill to you, isn't it? I tell you your friend's dead and you don't even bat an eye. It's like I've always said, we're really similar...and that's why...
The dark katana begins emanating a shadowy force as Chaos swiftly waves it in the air in a cross-like pattern. The aura solidifies into a black substance that flies through the air at the same speed with which Chaos swung the blade flying towards Tatsuya's chest directly.
Power 65%...Yomi, Hell's Grasp...
The shadowy force begins forming around Chaos like a swarm of insects.
Danksuya observes the fight from the sidelines in the dome as he turns to Haruko, giving her a strong gaze as to inspire her to fight with all of her might, it's clear that they can stop that... thing... Danksu then attempts to break out of the dome, maybe it was safer in here but he had to get out, someone was urging him to get closer, as he melts a bit of the ice with his lighter before slamming through the dome. After recovering Danksu inches closer to the fight, paying close attention to his other self
Tatsuya's blade burns brighter as he slams it in the path of the cross, still in spite of this he's not able to block it. The force is somewhat reduced but regardless Tatsu is sent back a ways and winces from the blow. In spite of that however he does get moving again and dart over to Chaos, sending a quick kick at the man's right knee to try and unbalance him. Apollo on the other hand smirks behind it's mask as a jet of flames rushes from behind Chaos, the wall growing just a bit smaller as it's power is turned towards attacking.
"Don't even bat an eye? On the contrary Chaos, were I not engaged in a fight for my life at the moment I'd be quite focused upon that. Regardless I can't afford to let myself make mistakes from grief."
His voice comes out clearly, his eyes seeming almost devoid of any emotion as Tatsu speaks.
Anyone else would likely call themself too cold for it... He'll just focus on what matters.
The kick is unable to actually inflict enough damage to Chaos as the dark force protects him but it still causes him to have to step back into the now spewing flames. He winces in pain as the flames burn his back. He looks up as his eyes are consumed with rage.
You're...You're no fun at all!!! Just a bug in the game! And like all bugs you need to be squashed! I'll kill you and make you into an even stronger shadow!!!
Yomi! 75% power!!!
The shadowy force becomes denser as strange tendrils seem to flow out of the stone affixed to the blade. They latch onto Chaos' arm as he rushes towards Tatsuya swinging the blade vertically at his neck. The force extends into an arm that tries to grab onto Tatsuya's leg in the process to hold him in place.
While Chaos is enraged the watery serpent sinks back into the ground to emerge before Haruko and Danksuya. Seeing its opportunity it hardens its body back into a frigid ice like shell before roaring in a way that sounds like two pieces of ice being scraped together.
Danksuya gets blown back by the giant serpent's roar and almost falls down, holding up his arms instinctively to guard as he steals one last look at his other self, he then turns to the giant serpent and stands his ground, taking deep breaths as a voice rings out
Don't be afraid, take my hand.
Danksuya then raises his hand into the air, breath quickening as he becomes enveloped by a flash of white, a latent power that was once forgotten was awakened yet again, as Danksuya calls upon it
Persona!
Then, the spirit fully materializes, a being with vents all over with fire spewing from its back, as it speaks to Danksuya
I am thou... thou art I...from the sea of thy soul I cometh... the bearer of the inferno that wipes away all impurities! Vulcanus!
Danksuya then closes his eyes again and puts his hands down, looking towards to serpant he knew what he had to do.
Tatsuya takes his left hand off his blade, certainly the arm is holding him in place... But not enough he can't reach down and quickly draw his Evoker to his head. The man utters a few words quickly before pressing the trigger.
"I'm just a bug huh? You know some games get canceled because of having too many bugs... I'LL MAKE SURE THIS DOES TOO! COME OUT HYPERION!"
The sound of glass shatter can be heard all around as a giant made from light appears behind Tatsuya, as soon as it does a wall of hard light forms behind Chaos, the burning blue flames of Tatsu's wall suddenly rushing downwards and merging into one small circle. Then just as suddenly the circle attempts to dart under Chaos, the heat of it likely burning the man's feet just from standing on it... Until the circle rushes upwards off the ground, a tower inferno rushing upwards off the ground in a stunning blaze as Tatsu flicks his lighter.
After managing to evacuate much of the audience, blindsided by the madness, a smirking Senri re-enters the scene, stepping ahead of Danksuya and Haruko, pulling her hood down as she looks at the serpent.
Now now, aren't you forgetting someone? It's rude to leave people out of the game, you know? Mindless beasts should really mind their manners...
Mania. Come.
Senri spread her arms, summoning forth a demented looking Persona. It looked a little different than when she was the Black Samurai, however. It seemed more elegant and wore an arrogant smile, like a new resolve had washed over it. The female Persona giggles miraculously and pulls out a sword, as if staying "en-garde" to the beast.
The circle forms under Chaos as he screams in pain. Smoke rises from beneath him before the flames envelop his figure. Within the flame, only his figure can be seen standing motionless and silent. The shadowy force can be seen moving through the area slightly but its still as it gently floats in the air.
This pain...Again, you force me to feel this pain. Are you not satisfied with just one time...? ARe you not content with inflicting this upon me twice? Can you not be happy just doing this three times? Is four finally the limit...?
The dragon glares viciously at Danksuya before it rushes in to bite into him with its frigid fangs.It darts in a straight line rushing at him as it's wings spread out.
Danksuya smiles a crooked smile as he summons his persona again with a flash of light, it felt good to use this power, as if an old friend had visited, he then would jump into the air as Vulcanus assists Danksuya in his jump, throwing him onto the back of the serpent as Danksuya tries to grab on
"I won't be happy till you give up and die, or stop trying to hurt people. Honestly Chaos if you'd just not harm anyone I'd be okay leaving you the hell alone... You don't get to cry and moan about the pain people inflict on you for trying to murder them."
Apollo moves to Tatsu's side and tosses a white blast of nuclear energy at their foe, opting for something simple this time after all the tough to use tricks. Hyperion on the other hand moves backwards to stand with it's summoner and other Persona. Raising it's hand a wall of hard light forms in front of all three, a small hole appearing in the center... Just big enough for a revolver that appears in Tatsuya's hands form nowhere. Glowing bullets infused with light magic flying wildly in the direction of Chaos.
You shall acknowledge me as your omega, shadow.
Senri swung her katana out in a motion. While she hit the air, the motion was more a symbolic call to arms. The Persona, Mania, rushed directly into its path, firing a strong Curse attack from its sword. The beast would run face first into it if not fast enough.

The nuclear energy surrounds Chaos as it fuses with the flames to burst outward into a massive burst of light.
I've had enough...Everyone always rejects me. It only makes sense right? I'm a shadow. The side of oneself they never wanted to see made complete. No matter what, I'll always be rejected. That's why I have to keep on fighting for my right to exist! Yomi! 90%! No more holding back!
Clouds begin forming in the sky as a singular red light flash down towards where Chaos stands. Through the clouds, the dark image of a city reverse that of Shibuya can be seen. The earth trembles as the battered Chaos stands within the light. The shadowy force suddenly darts to his side and begins to enshroud him more and more until only a shadowy figure stands before Tatsuya.
This pain...I'll make it my own!
Tatsuya's bullets of light hit the shadowy figure that was once Chaos causing pieces of the shadow to fly off before rejoining the misty figure. The figure lifts its arm up at Tatsuya as it contorts and twists unnaturally before extending outward and attempting to smash through the wall and grab onto him. If it touches him then he will be burned with a nameless element.
The dragon continues rushing forward as the explosion of curse energy explodes within its head. The dragon's form begins becoming more liquid as it swings around wildly. All Danksuya can do is try to grasp onto its now gooey body. The dragon lets loose a blizzard from its mouth in an attempt to expel the curse energy as well.

Danksuya makes do with what be can as Vulcanus erupts beside him again, charging a ball of fire in Danksuya's free hand as he slams it into the serpent repeatedly, trying to burn the thing alive even though it's goey
Certainly the hand is able to smash Tatsu's wall, sadly for Chaos the time it takes gives Tatsuya ample time to dart backwards and take aim at said hand as well. A smirk appearing on his face as a pair of light walls appear on either side of the hand, Apollo and Hyperion both slamming them towards the other in an attempt to crush their target in a hardlight wall.
"You can cry all you want... But if you had bothered to try and be accepted before killing people I'd have been willing to give you a chance Chaos. I didn't turn on Teddie for being a Shadow, and what's in the past is in the fucking past... But you just had to do this instead of trying to be something better didn't you? Amazing how you try to take the moral high ground as you proceed to act just like Nyarlathotep built you to."
The man scoffs at Chaos utter bullshit as he quickly draws a flashbang from his coat, pulling the pin and tossing it where Chaos seems to be in the darkness to try and get a closer look at his foe.
Mania folds her arms and guards from the coming blizzard, Senri doing the same. She gritted her teeth from the ice reigning down on her, ice forming on her clothes... But Senri didn't feel alone. She could keep going. In her mind, "he" was by her side. She'll never be alone again.
Senri shook her head as her body tries to resist the cold. Mania pushes through and swings her rapier at the now gooey serpant.
The hand of the figure seems to fall off squirming around before being crushed and distorting. It then starts dissolving back into the shadowy force and flying back to chaos rejoining the rest of the mass surrounding him. The flashbang land near the figure but regardless of how brightly it flashes nothing can be seen in the dark cloud.
Nothing left...just keep moving forward...the moment I came into being it was already too late.
95%...
Two more arms from out of the shadowy force and begins contorting and extending, in the same way, aiming for Tatsuya as well.
Danksuya's fire begins to cause the dragon's exterior to dry up and crack. Senri finally rushes in for a swing with her rapier as the dragon begins cracking into pieces. It falls apart before dissolving into a shadowy mist and floating up into the sky towards the dark reverse city.
The clouds begin to part more and more as the red light begins spreading over the entirety of the park.
Tatsuya blasts away at one with his gun, bullets of light tearing it to bits in a blur as he... Focuses a bit too much to evade the other hand sadly. As the hand grabs onto him the man feels whatever the hell it's made of burning into him, no telling what that does so he's not playing anymore. A look of focus crosses Tatsuya's face in spite of the terrible pain from the attack.
"HEAVEN AND HELL! BRING ABOUT THE END OF TIMES!"
Apollo and Hyperion vanish, a blur of light appearing as where they were Lucifer and Satan float in the air. As suddenly as the two had appeared twin blasts of energy fly from their hands before merging into one horrible blade of vast Almighty magic.
"ARMAGEDDON V2!"
Both Persona grab hold of the blade, rushing into the darkness and slashing it about all around them as the fly through before coming out the other side. The beings flap up high into the air and finally toss it straight into the center of Chaos hiding spot, sword glowing brighter still before it explodes into a vast light that engulfs the whole thing and beyond. Tatsuya absently flicking his lighter as he stares at the could to see the result.
Mania smiles dementedly, licking the goo off of her rapier with the shadows fall. Senri nods to Danksuya with a smile.
You're not bad. Thanks for the assistance, comrade.
She curtsies, now turning her attention towards Chaos. She stepped forward and pointed.
You, shadow who imposes his will on this world... This world is not yours to reek havoc upon. Humans, shadows, demons all possess their own will to control their destiny. I am the Black Samurai, and I will take your distorted desires without fail.
Mania...! Wings of Hysteria!
For a brief moment, though only Chaos himself could see, it looked like a small figure stood aside Senri, and next to Mania was another, black wearing Persona. The delusion disappeared from sight quickly, and Mania releases a high power wind attack on Chaos. The attack had a high chance of inducing rebellious insanity, though he may be immune.
(edited by Senri_Suzuko)
In a flurry of energy and wind the shadowy figure is completely consumed. The shadowy force vanishes from the beaten and battered Chaos as he falls to the ground. With a single hand on his blade and half his consciousness remaining he slowly stands on his knees before sticking the blade into the ground. He smirks before beginning to laugh like a madman.
Your efforts...were always in vain. 100%...Yomi-no-Kuni...
Suddenly the red light that enshrouds the entire park turns to a vibrant yellow that grows more and more intense until all who are within it become unable to see anything. The only sensation left is the sound of dripping water.
The park has vanished and in its place, a crater remains. At the bottom of the crater rests a single well with water that takes on a shadowy haze. All who were in the park no longer find themselves within the Nexus but now reside within somewhere similar in structure to the Nexus. The buildings are ruined and the roads are broken. No animals reside here, no plants reside here, nobody resides here, there is nothing here but death. Welcome to the land of Yomi.
