Return of the Abyss
A hole in the sidewalk has opened once more. A spiral staircase leads down into the darkness, lit by only a few red ember-like lights. Something about it fills those present with dread...
Eito,remembdring his previous experience with the hole,swallows his dread and gkes down,his eyes turning yellow in wariness.
The staircase is long and seemingly endless. A few larger red lights reveal a tall city skyline down here. The bottom step leads to the black pavement of this dark and empty city. Only a gust of wind greets the newcomer.
OOC: Can i join?
ooc: Go right ahead.
Eito looked around,surprised at his situation.
"What the fuck...."
Eito started walking forward,shining his phone's flashlight in front of him.
"I bet this is that fucking snake's doing."
"What was his name again?H...H-Drys?Something like that."
A young girl can be seen leaping off the rooftops, she seems to be wearing some sort of blue armor with a white cape. She looks around the cityscape confused before descending back to the streets
Is it just me or is the city really different now... Surely the witch didn’t take that long...
She catches sight of Eito’s red as he descends into the hole and looks at a crescent-shaped gem around her neck
That can’t be good..... I don’t sense anything, but I’d better check up on him
with that, the girl begins to dash down the staircase, heedless of her own safety
A portal appears and Addalme falls from it
Eito?
Addalme runs and catchs Eito.
Hi, what are you doing here?
With the red lights illuminating those present, the trio meets up in the center of the main road. Eito's flashlight reveals... not much of anything. Just some buildings, yet not a car in sight. There's some streetlights, but none are on. The ground shakes ever so slightly...
An abandoned town?
Addalme looks the builds... the streetlights... something to see in what city were they
I don't know where we are, do you have an idea?
Eito looks at the two,now beside him.
"Oh,heya..."
Eito perks up at Addalme's question.
"I call it 'The Abyss',it's some kinda alternate dimension or something like that.Don't know too much about it since i've only been here once before,and it was completely different."
The young girl looks around at the others, glancing at their neck as though looking for something. With nothing found she breaths a sigh of relief
What are you two doing somewhere like this? Most people avoid obviously suspicious spots.
The girl looks around at the shaking city, and pulls out what seems to be a long katana with a saber-like hand guard
You two should probably get out of here, I don’t send anything, but that much rumbling can’t be good. Leave the dangerous stuff to the professionals.
She doesn’t seem like she can be much older than 13, so it’s a bit odd to hear her talking so confidently
"To Eito"
The abyss? Hm... this going to be fun, also I want to see how much have you improved Eito.
"To Sayaka"
Don't worry about me, I'm used to this kind of places. You just have to keep your guard and be ready for anything.

Almost as if on cue, one of the buildings suddenly collapses. What destroyed it keeps moving onward without a care. The creature's appearance is impossible to pinpoint due to the shadows, but it has the vague shape of a turtle. Its shell is pointed in spots, giving it a spiky appearance, and its feet are almost as wide as a small house. It lowers its gaze to the mere humans below and opens its beaked mouth...
"We're no strangers to love...
You know the rules, and so do I..."
A gigant tortoise? Again with weird places...
Alright, what do you want?
Addalme just in case wrote what the tortoise said.
Eito,for some reason,felt a spike of anger at the turtle's words.
"Hmm...."
Eito walked closer,his hand extended,intending to touch the giant's snout.
(edited by Eito)
Sayaka’s arms go down to her side as she looks at the turtle in confusion
Why do I feel like this is supposed to be a reference? And.... This might not feel like a witch...
Sayaka takes on a serious expression as she crouches, she takes her sword in both hands and points it upwards
That doesn’t mean I can just let it go free. What if it hurt people?
With inhuman speed, the girl leaps up, she gets about halfway to the turtle’s head before she stops ascending, at this point, a circle of musical notes appears beneath her, which she then proceeds to leap up
My name is Sayaka Miki, and as a Magical Girl it is my job to protect people from danger, even as lazy something as a giant turtle.
Her little speech over, Sayaka forms one more circle to leap off of and tried to land on top of the turtle’s head
OOC: Soul Gem, 25% dark
Unfortunately, Eito's attempt is unsuccessful, since the turtle lifts its head up to attempt to see the girl on top of it.
"A full commitment's what I'm thinking of...
You wouldn't get this from any other guy..."
As it continues its lazy chant, it slams its whole body down onto the ground, causing cracks to form and approach those on the ground.
Addalme jumps to avoid one of the cracks.
Hmmm...
Addalme looks around and then casts kougaon on the turtoise.
(edited by Addalme)
Eito would briefly look up at Sayaka.
"Yo,I was doing something!"
His irritation would disappear as equal parts curiosity and slight fear came to him after seeing the cracks.
"Yeah,I don't think I wanna go there."
The teen attempts to start moving around nonsensically to avoid the cracks
With her positioning successful, Sayaka would begin wildly swinging her sword at the top of the turtle’s head, hoping her enhanced strength will help her deal with it
I don’t know what you think you’re doing, but you’re hurting people, so I can’t just let you be.
(edited by Sayaka_Miki)
A girl dressed in a grungy outfit notices the strange entrance from outside. How peculiar. Was this here before?
She smirks. Perhaps this was an opportunity. Treasure, perhaps? More secrets to this world?
She entered the stairwell into this new world. It was dark, but Senri could make out some things. If only she had her Black Samurai helmet...
Just then, she sees a building crumble. Looks like she's not alone.
She started to follow the destruction in the distance, before hearing a familiar tune...
No.
No. No way. Not him.
I'll kill it before it breeds.
Senri, oddly fired up about...something, chases the source. She wondered if she could use her will of rebellion here, or her speed...
She catches up to what seems to be a a group facing off against a... Giant tortoise?
That's... Not exactly what I expected. You really let yourself go, dude.
Senri is nearly knocked off her feet from the ground shaking. A crack forming under her feet, she keeps to the left to keep from sinking and draws a black katana from her jacket.
That song is offensive enough, but now it looks like I have to impose my will.
She rushes in, aiming to drive her katana into one of the turtles eyes.
"I just wanna tell you how I'm feeling...
Gotta make you understand..."
The turtle sounds rather annoyed at the girl slashing at its head. Black blood comes out of the wounds. With a huff, it retracts its head and legs into its shell, hoping to knock the girl off with the rim of its hard armor. The cracks in the ground continue to grow. Its eyes close in time to prevent the katana from piercing its eye completely, but it still sinks in deep enough to earn a pained growl.
(edited by Hundred-S)
Eito,while dodging the cracks in the ground,stares at the two girls.
"Girls,what the fuck?!Chill out!"
while dodging the cracks Addalme went to Eito.
Is something wrong? Why you tried to touch him?
Senri releases her katana and moves away. Leaving the blade in the wound she hoped would keep the wound antagonized. She shrugs at Eito.
Hey, self defense, yes? I came in here seeking treasure and was rudely assaulted.
Mania, come!
Senri summons a Persona dressed in black wearing a smile lacking of sanity. She casts Bufudyne, once again aiming for the turtles head.
Huh?
Somehow not expecting the turtle to retreat, Sayaka is knocked off its head and begins to fall. Her back seems to have a minor.... Nevermind, there’s nothing there. She falls roughly three stories before managing to conjure a circle of notes below her. She quickly gets to her feet and tries to jump back onto the turtle’s shell
You’re not getting away that easy. Come out and fight me you coward.
If she gets onto the shell, she would then begin swinging at the turtle’s armor, probably to no avail
Sayaka's efforts are comparable to trying to break a mountain with a wooden bat. The Bufudyne hits the turtle's beak, sparing everyone from the speech for a brief moment. With a sudden burst of strength, it shoots out its arms and legs, slamming them into the ground to literally shatter it within a 10-foot radius.
"Never gonna give you up...
Never gonna let you down...
Never gonna run around and desert you..."
(edited by Hundred-S)
"Other than spouting out an annoying yet weirdly familiar song,the thing didn't do anything!"
"Now look at it!You fucking provoked it!"
*Sigh*
"Whatever,might as well join in on the fun."
Eito's eyes turn red as he pulls out a pistol and shoots at the tortoise experimentally,aiming for the legs.
(edited by Eito)
I can say now he is annoying like an Adamantoise... let's kill it guys, I hope it doesn't takes a week.
Addalme casts mind charge.
The head right? Maybe...
Addalme casts megidolaon in tortoise's mouth.
(edited by Addalme)
Alright you coward, I see how it is
Sayaka would proceed to jump off the turtle’s shell and bring her sword down with all her might as she descends, attempting to slice straight through one of the turtle’s front legs
How do you like that? You won’t be able to threaten anyone ever again.
OOC: forgot the Soul Gem update last time, 30%
For a moment, Senri felt peace. Only a moment as it started again. The weight of a thousand rick rolls were once again put on her shoulders.
You are truly the most villainous creature I've encountered.
Battling the internet trauma buried into her psyche, she was caught off guard by the bosses impact destroying the ground under her. She was close enough to be able to grab the edge of the broken ground before falling into infinity.
Damnit...
She manages to catch her foot on a loose stone, thankfully the destruction was messy. She pulls herself back up and distances from the edge.
Well, I'm probably not getting my katana back...
Mania, thankfully Persona's are able to fly, moves in and attacks with Skewer, aiming for the shell at the entrance to where the turtles neck hides.
The turtle's limbs grab the edge of its hole, but the combined attacks from Sayaka and Eito causes one of its limbs to give out.
"Never gonna make you cry..."
The Megidolan hits its head, causing it to involuntarily come out.
"Never gonna say goodbye..."
Mania's attack hits it square between the eyes, and its grip loosens.
"Never gonna tell a lie and hurt you..."
The voice fades as the turtle falls into darkness...
Eito huffs.
"Well...That was a thing."
Alright, it's done.
Addalme goes to Eito, Sayaka and Senri
What now?
Sayaka continues to descend, when she sees the turtle fall into the pit below her
That can’t be good.
The girl spawns another circle of notes for a moment in order to leap back to safe ground. Once she lands near the others Sayaka points her sword into the abyss and stands, feet shoulder length apart, her cape billowing heroically in the wind
Just another day’s work for a magical girl. I told you guys it was no problem.
Sayaka grins widely, apparently proud of having conquered a turtle
Soul gem 32% dark
Senri takes a deep breath as Mania vanishes.
Well. This place is already full of surprises...
...
Yeah. That thing took my katana with it. You took from me in the end after all, Mister Astley...
She sighs. She liked that katana; it served her well in her debut days as the Black Samurai up to now. She turns to Addalme.
What now? I came here to look for whatever treasures and secrets this little world has. Though I'm a weapon down now.
I trust you were all together?
Addalme turns to Senri offers her his light saber
I always take two weapons, you can use this one if you want.
Eito looks at Sayaka,his eyes a cold blue.
"I formed my first impression of magical girls based on Homura.Today I learned that not all of them are that great."
He turns to the other fighters.
"As for what's next,I suppose we try to find a way down there."
The teen points at the pit.
Sayaka breaks her pose to look back at Senri with a wide smile
I was just passing by when I saw these two were having a tough time, so of course I made sure to jump in and help.
Sayaka looks around the area again, though it doesn’t seem like much is around best to be safe
Speaking of which, it’s kinda dangerous. Shouldn’t we go back up around now?
Sayaka’s expression darkens as soon as she hears the name “Homuraâ€
Oh I know all about selfish girls like her. But I won’t let her stop me, Magical Girls are supposed to protect people, not.... Whatever she’s trying to pull. Did you know some of them will let people die just so they can get more out of it? Ridiculous
(edited by Sayaka_Miki)
We don't know what we can find here... I still remember that gigant pig...
A-anyways, I leave it to you.
Eito's eyes turn red as he gives Sayaka a disapproving look.
"Haven't known her for long but she certainly doesn't seem like the type."
"You on the other hand are very easy to understand."
He walks closer to her.
"Overly eager to fight,quick to say that you saved the day and to accuse other people..."
"Well,okay,the last part is somewhat hypocritical on my end but the rest still apply."
(edited by Eito)
Hm? Really?
Senri smiles and takes it gratefully with a bow.
You have my gratitude. I'll return it once I find a proper replacement.
Senri looks to Sayaka with an interest.
Ahh. A sense of justice? Well, as long as you're certain of what your justice is, then your will should bring you great things.
Senri hears what Eito said, Senri nods, prepared to delve deeper. She also heard something curious... Homura? Was that the same Homura that befriended her?
...She couldn't help but look at Sayaka oddly. That description didn't fit Homura at all... More magical girls, too?
...Senri's eyes gleamed, wondering what her transformation sequence looked like.
Homura? Nah, I shouldn't interfere.
My apologies, but I have to leave, good bye.
Addalme Leaves.
OOC: Going to bed, bye.
Sayaka sighs and crosses her arms, turning her head to the side as she does so
I’ll admit, I haven’t seen Homura doing that, but with how hard she tried to keep Madoka and I from making a contract, just so she’d have less competition, I wouldn’t put it past her.
sayaka turns back to look up and meet Eito’s eyes
You’re probably nothing to her, not a magical girl, can’t make a contract, she’d probably just ignore you. Upstanding prick.
At the very least I’m doing some good out here, so watch your accusations
"Excuse you?What gave you the idea that I was anything resembling upstanding?"
Eito's red eyes start glowing.
"And don't even try to claim the moral high ground here because I don't give a rat's ass if you save kittens from trees or puppies from being ran over."
"I don't even know what this 'contract' shit is,but i'll asume it's nothing good if Homura didn't want her girl...Her friend to make one with you!"
Nice group you got here.
Senri stands by and smirks.
I wonder if the Phantom Thieves faught like this... Well, if you'll be awhile, I'll just wait by the next floor.
Senri turns away, pulling something odd and a lighter out of her jacket as she waits for the commotion to end. Two dualling ideologies are bound to collide, after all. She still listened out of curiosity, though.
(Slithers in looking like a snake centipede hybrid) ayyyyy
Sayaka just stares at Eito for a while hearing that last part. Homura? Madoka? Friends?!?!?!? With that, she proceeds to grab the front of his shirt
You saw her with Madoka? Where? Tell me where Madoka is, if Homura’s after her it can’t be anything good. I’m going to protect my friend, whatever you may think about me.
So.....what's going on here?....
Eito grabs the girl's hands and attempts to push her off of him.
"After her?You really are a psycho!"
"They're friends,no,more than just friends,they're best friends!"
"I don't know what the fuck you're talking about but you're starting to weird me the fuck out!"
(Slithers closer to the 2 people) ayyyyy
Sayaka lets Eito take her hands off and steps away a little
No, you're right, you have no idea what's going on. Bottom line, Homura Akemi is a manipulative backstabber, and if she's with Madoka I don't have any more time to waste on people like you. Now I'm going to go save MY best friend, not Homura's.
With that Sayaka would leap away at inhuman speeds, back up the staircase and to the streets above.
Ooc: Is it too late to join?
Um...what's going on?
"WAIT YOU CRAZY BITCH!"
Eito would run back up the stairs far faster than any human should be able to in an attempt to catch up to Sayaka.
(Slithers up the stair s at normal speeds)
Sayaka looks over her shoulder at Eito, he's keeping up much better than she'd think
Oh what is it now? I'm not going to fight you, I at least have some standards. I protect people, what a Magical Girl should be doing.
With that, she leaps to the top of the staircase, conjures another circle of notes, and leaps off that circle onto a nearby rooftop. From her newfound height advantage, she looks down at Eito
If you have anything stupid left to say, get it over with. I'm not hanging around much longer
What....the....hell?
Eito looks up at Sayaka,his eyes leaving light trails in the air as he moves about.
"If you hurt Homura,or anyone else that has to do with this bullshit,then know that no matter how weak or useless I am,I will do my best to make sure that your life takes a sudden turn for the worst."
The teen flips the magical girl off.
(Slithers in middle between the 2 ppl) ALRIGHT, CALM THE FUCK DOWN
I don't plan on hurting anyone, that would make me no better than they are, but I'll do whatever I have to to make sure Madoka is safe. And you're most certainly not going to stop me.
With that final remark, Sayaka begins leaping across the rooftops, no longer caring about how unusual the city is, mostly just hoping to get lucky and stumble upon one of the two she's searching for.
ooc: It's cool m8, I just made the thread for the meme and left. This was actually a pretty interesting outcome.
