OOC: Can I join?

Kalib walks through the halls of the building below the tower. He kept his head down as he walks towards the elevator leading to the observation decks. He just needed to clear his head so he could think clearly. Arriving at the elevator he calls the elevator. "I wonder how the skyline looks from up there? I've only ever seen it in a brochure..." Before he could think on it further, the elevator arrives and he steps in. Moments later he arrives on the first observation deck and steps out to see the city in all its glory. "W-Woah... that's pretty sweet!"

Magus jumps from the shadows, he lands near Kazuya who is looking through the window. are you looking the landscape from here? Magus looks at Kazuya and then through the window... when hebdid that he felt nostalgic... he was remembering another tower ...

.............. You can see the whole city from here.... Mei arrives through the elevator, mumbling something about "Magitek portals" and how they make your gut woozy

Actually yes. I've never actually came here and enjoy the view but..well, had to try. [He casually tells the stranger besides him. He was getting lost in the endless image of the city, It seemed massive, it made him feel so small too. He would then hear a familiar voice. Loud, a bit annoying and yet, friendly. Kazuya would turn around to greet Kalib.] Hey! Enjoying the view, Kalib?

Snapping back to reality at the familiar voice, Kalib finally notices Kaz standing at the window. With a grin and a wave he heads towards Kaz. "You bet! I've been meaning to come visit and see the sights. And with everything going on these days... I finally had an excuse." There was a sadness in his eyes that he tried to hide with a warm smile. "So what are you up to? Sightseeing?"

It reminds me to that place... but this view... is completelly different. Magus stopped talking the moment Kazuya left... he didn't felt annoyed he was just feeling nostalgic. I hate this feeling... Magus walked away from the window.

[Kazuya moves his head to the side as the bone makes a very loud cracking noise, he would then make circular movement with a a hand on the back of his neck.] Something like that, figured I should remind myself of my place in this world. I usually do that to think, you know? [Kazuya would chuckle before looking back at the city of Tokyo. His eyes trying to burn this image on his mind. He had some rather melancholic look in his eyes, and yet, his smile stood there without changing.] And man, have I been thinking a lot this past time. It's weird...but enough about me. Tell me about you, what have you been up to, big guy? [Kazuya gives Kalib a soft punch on the man's shoulder.]

The man laughs softly as Kaz connects with his shoulder. "Would it be melodramatic if I said I've been soul searching?" He shakes his head softly. "I've just had a lot on my mind. Granted us bringing Ene home was definitely a huge weight off my shoulders...but that's just one problem solved out of myriad issues." He tenses up briefly before calming his nerves. He looks back and stares Kaz in the eyes. "Do you ever question yourself, Kaz?"

OOC:I hope you don't mind I join A young man with a duffle bag walks to the site of the tower, looking like a first year student "Out of all places...This better not be boring."

Every single day. [Kazuya says as he turns back to face Kalib. He does it firmly, with a strange tone of voice filled with many conflicting emotions. He would then turn his gaze back at the city.] You are right, saving Ene is a single step. But there is still so much to do...however, I like to enjoy these victories. It was not a small one after all. [The young man would cover his face with his right hand, as if he was tired or stressed. Yet, his entire body would say the opposite.] For so long I stood alone against...what seemed like impossible odds. And then I get a little help and it immediatey gets better, turning the entire situation around. [Kazuya thinks deeply at the past events.] I've been able to keep teaching, you know? I finally moved on to demons...they all failed except for Takeno, you remember her, right? The girl managed to convince Shiki-Ouji into joining her. She's fun... [Kazuya would laugh loudly at this, of course it was nothing but a test, but it was truly remarkable. He would then uncover his face, having a melancholic smile on his face, still facing away from Kalib.] Yesterday we had a...time travel adventure even, an alternative future to ours where everything turned into chaos. Death all around, the sky was black and there was this...dead family. The mom had been dead for a long time and barely moments from the kid and father they...they just... The kid and the father commited suicide... [Kazuya then looks down as he lets out a loud sigh.] We then give a dying man his dying wish...I had to mess with his brain to change his perception of reality. He was smiling and...then we decide, "Hey, we should make the sky blue again". I yell some cheesy stuff for the people watching, Makoto, Aitome and Deneb all combine their powers into this...massive ball of light and we just... [Kazuya finally turns to Kalib and makes the gesture of an explosion with his hand, even the sound effect with his own voice.] The blast clears it. People were hopeful you know...? And then Makoto and Aitome just...they just thank me, like some kind of hero. [Kazuya would then point at his forehead.] Even if I fell unconscious right after, isn't it a bit dumb? [The young man looks away, his smile trembles, his right hand does too, although softly.] The first thing I saw was Makoto, and I just...I just call her "Mom". What kind of hero does that? Isn't it ridiculous, Kalib? She reminded me of her for some reason, maybe the hair but... [Kazuya would then stay quiet, looking down for a moment before looking back at the city again.]

After proceeding to walk to the tower and inside,the tan skinned person would look around of what may be the inside of the tower likes it's his first time visiting the tower

The large man lets out a sigh of relief as Kazuya recounts his stories. "Takeno? I remember her yes. She managed to sway a Shiki-Ouji? That's awesome! Looks like you've got quite the young up and comer!" His lips curl downwards upon hearing about the alternate future. "A world of death, darkness, and chaos...huh?" He ponders for a moment before speaking. "Regardless of the bleakness of that reality, you all fought so hard to give people a glimmer of hope! I don't know about all this hero business, but you did what you thought was right in that situation. That's respectable no matter which way you spin it!" He laughs softly. "I don't know about ridiculous..." He stares off at the city. "I'm glad that someone like you also feels that way sometimes... I just, nevermind. It's nothing!"

[Kazuya nods as he listens to Kalib's words wtih attention. All that "hero" talk still hit a strange place inside of his heart. However, he was now interested in something else.] I'm not offended but I am curious. What do you mean by "someone like me"? And not only that, but also what you were thinking about, you can just tell me. [Kazuya's trembling quickly subdues. Instead, his cheeks would get slight red tone.] But yeah...Takeno has been something else. Really aggressive and to the point, goes to show I'm still weak around girls really...

A blue haired teenage boy wearing his casual beaten up black blazer with his red and black Shujin Academy pants on looks down at the well lit city from the top of the tower. "Wow, I never thought that this tower would go this far up."

Kalib grins at Kazuya. "Oh? It sounds like she's swayed more than Shiki-Ouji." Kalib would then let out a soft sigh before answering the first question. "You have awesome power and you seem so confident! I would be lying if I said I wasn't a bit envious of you." He turns away shyly as he continues to speak. "Look. What if I said I'm not who I said I am this entire time? What if I said I lied to all of you since day one? Because that may in fact be truth."

[Kazuya quickly turns to see in Kalib's direction. What the man just told him was a bit worrying, given the place they were building back at his world, it was common regardless.] I would say...way too many people do that for too many reasons. What I would be interested in knowing would be the "Why".

Kalib looks down at his feet. "Not in the conventional way, Kaz. This isn't about wearing a mask on purpose to protect myself or achieve a goal. This is about me finally waking up memories of my past." He looks back up at the man with fear in his eyes. "I was okay with not knowing about my past, but things have been bubbling to the surface. And I'm not who I thought I was after all." He balls his hands into fists. "There's another me and he's hurting people. Only a few people have seen this doppelganger, but he's very real. I don't know anything about him other than he and I are the same being... well that's what he says at least."

I heard something about that, yeah. [Kazuya doesn't falter as he keeps looking at Kalib with confident eyes, contrasting to the melancholy he was showing barely minutes ago.] I don't know about your past, or what you did, what you were. If I learned something back home is that all you have is the present. [He would immediately give the man a comforting smile.] When it comes to me, I would only judge by...what you've done for everyone here, Ene especially. Nothing else, however...I understand, it will take a while for you to accept this new face you just discovered. [He would lean against the handrail next to the window.] And when it comes to Fakelib we'll find a way. We always do, you just gotta believe in everyone, especially Tatsuya.

The man blinks a few times before his eyes start to water. With embarrassment spreading across his face, he quickly wipes the moisture from his eyes. "Living in the present huh? I really am foolish after all..." He grins as he looks back to Kaz with a renewed vigor in his eyes. "I do believe in all of you. Especially Tatsuya! Even if he's a bit much sometimes, he hasn't let me down yet." He looks back out at the cityscape with a warm smile. "It isn't about being a hero at the end of the day. But those with power have the responsibility to protect those who can't. So if a part of me wants to wreak havoc, then we'll stop him. Together!"

Right? That's the spirit. [Kazuya is facing away from the city with both eyes closed and a peaceful smile on his face.] Hey, this might be a bit of a strange question, but I hope you don't mind me asking. [Kazuya would then stay quiet, the sun was slowly disappearing and coloring the sky of a nice orange, casting a shadow in front of Kazuya, and behind of Kalib.] What do you think dying feels like?

*Kisaragi leans back against the elevator while clutching a flier for the tower against her chest. She was anticipating a magnificent view that would easily trump any experience she previously had. A voice at the back of her mind also kept saying that she was doing this to ignore her guilt. But Kisaragi did the noble thing of crushing that voice and tossing it in the nearest mental bin.* People looking like ants from up above. *The elevator doors opened and she took a step forward with her head held high. Only to trip and land directly on her face. A red bruise already forming on her forehead and stray tears of pain appearing at the eyes.* Ahhh why do I always trip! It's like fate hates me! *She sits on both her knees and begins to pat at her forehead to ease the pain*

The young man gets to the top of the tower and suddenly his cell phone rings and he responds to it "Who is it? Oh..I had no problems getting here....No nothing yet of Importance...And no one of note so far...Okay understood" The Call ends and he young man hangs up putting the cellphone into his pocket

"I don't know what you went through before entering the Heat Haze." The man shudders slightly. "But I can guarantee that when I died that time it was... odd. I don't know how to describe it other than a cold warmth. But I don't think that really counts, does it?" He leans against the rail with a thoughtful sigh. "I imagine it depends on if you're alone or not. Dying with the people you care about all around you... that's how I'd want to go. Seeing everyone I care about one last time would surely make the transition easier." Kalib turns his head towards Kaz. "Why do you ask?"

*Kisaragi peers up at the young man with a curious look. After listening in a bit on his call she begins to wonder if the kid could possibly be a secret agent. She was told that the people here were not what they appeared be so hey it could be possible.* Hi~ *She carefully stands up and waves at the young man before making her way over to a railing. Instead of looking down toward the street she pulls out a guide book and begins to read. Kisaragi knew she wasn't the studious sort, but she wanted to get this once in a lifetime view just right.*

[Kazuya would stay quiet for a long time as he contemplated his own shadow, created by the sun that was slowly hiding, making way for the night. Soon, he wouldn't be able to face his own shadow, lost in a sea of darkness. His melancholic expression soon shows up once again, as he opens his mouht to finally reply.] Kalib, do you remember some months ago... [However, Kisaragi suddenly shows up and fall on her face. She of course quickly stands up however, before he could even approach her. Kazuya would then keep looking at her before looking back at Kalib.] Ah, sorry for that~ [Kazuya would laugh loudly with both eyes closed.]

After Taking notice to the girl Possibly that heard my call.i take notice and look at her "Excuse me,Could you tell me about where I am. I'm from another country"

Jiyu leans on the rail while letting out a long sigh.. "Wow, staring at the city for about a few hours can sure get boring. Hopefully something happens before I get too bored."

"Months ago?" Kalib would also take note of Kisaragi's sudden appearance with a soft smile. "Graceful as always." He tries to hold back his laughter but it eventually proves too difficult for him. He doesn't let his eyes linger for too long before looking back to Kaz.

It's nothing Kalib, I was simply curious. [Kazuya would try to laugh his question away before looking back at him.] Say, you have experience with girls, right? What would you do if suddenly one of your students said she liked you? [Kazuya's face is facing Kalib, but his eyes move to anywhere else. He plays with his hair shyly and even blushes a bit.]

*Kisaragi looks up from her guide with a yawn and brilliantly smiles at Alito. Sh thinks for a second then begins to laugh.* Ah no i'm afraid I can't. *She bows in apology* I'm new here myself so I really don't know this place.

"Noted." Kalib squints at the man as he laughs, but doesn't push the issue. Instead he brings a hand to his chin and responds to the next question. "Well... how do you feel about her?" Kalib grins at Kazuya's words. "This wouldn't have anything to do with Takeno, does it? And I wouldn't call my experience terribly fruitful."

"It's alright. So can I ask what your name be exactly?" Alito looks at kisaragi while internally screaming in his mind

Well, yeah it's Takeno. She uh...actually said she "was taking a liking to me" [Kazuya would blush even more and his confident demeanor would slowly slip away.] It's not like I'm not interested either but...I-It was really sudden... And we decided to uh...get to know each other more before anything can happen. [Kazuya lets out a whimper as he covers his face with both hands.] A-And I dunno what to do now, I-I haven't even seen her and this was a few days ago. [The voice of the poor young man was now muffled.]

*Kisaragi places both hands on her hips and cutely winks at Alito.* My name is Kisaragi! Momo Kisaragi! My agent technically told me to go by my stage name but you can just call me Kisaragi~ Since your kind of nice~ *She then holds out her hand to Alito and waits on a handshake.* What is your name young dude?

Kalib blinks a few times as the words reach his ears. He stifles a laugh while grinning happily. "All in all, I'd say you've already made some good progress. You want to get to know her better, right? Then find out what she likes to do and take her out. Go let her shine in her own element." He beams at Kaz. "And then you can show off when you go do something you enjoy! So long as you both have fun, it'll work out." His attitude deflates slightly as he leans against the rail once more. "But I'm in a similar situation. It's been so long since I've seen Ene... I don't know how to approach her after all of this. But that's fine...so long as she's safe then I'm happy!"

"My name is Alito. And I'm an international boxer." Alito Accepts the handshake looking at kisaragi giving a firm look at her

Ooc: okay if I join (Blu makes it to the top of the tower to see the entire city below)

*Kisaragi meets Alito's look with a cheeky red eyed gaze of her own and then turns to the window. What she sees stuns her leaving her mouth opened in a surprised smile. She knew from the guidebook that this city had a lot of people, but staring at them from above was something else. The people below were like ants from this towering view and she felt a strange sense of superiority just be thinking this.* Hey Alito you need to come see this! *She tugs at Alito's hand and pulls him over to the window.* Isn't the view amazing! All those tiny people going about their boring lives~ While we watch from above~ Hahaha~ *Kisaragi's smile stretches a bit at the thought and she begins to wonder what would happen if she made the people rally to her. Would people actually sense her from this high up? And just how many people would be smitten by her?*

Jiyu looks away from the window and notices Alito and Kisaragi, but focuses on Alito, not recognizing him from anywhere in the Nexus. "Hmm, he must be new. I'd might as well make a new friend for once." He then gets up from leaning on the rail and walks over to the two. "Hey, are you new to the Nexus?"

(Looks down at the city) I’ve explored every inch of this city and I still don’t know everything about what lies hidden in both the real and the cognitive world

That's true, thanks Kalib. [The young man would then sit on the floor and sigh.] But...you know, waiting so much does get me a bit anxious. [He scratches his right cheek.] But...I-I guess something can be done once she shows up. If she shows up somewhere anyway! [The young man laughs again, just as nervous as he was before.]

"The view is amazing I admit. And New to the Nexus? I admit that is new to learn." Alito Gives a response to kisaragi before responding to jiyu Giving a look to view of the city once again

(Notices the group) Guess I should take it off my mind for now (Walks towards the group to say hello)

A yellow light would shimmer near Blu for a moment as if calling out to him. Blu... A faint and deep voice can be heard by him only as if a distant presence is reaching out to him.

Kalib nods in agreement. "Waiting does suck. But it makes the moments you are together that much more worth it." He looks at the pedestrians below with in silence before speaking again. "And you've got the right idea. Do what you can, when you can. Maybe I should take that advice, and just do what I always do! Try and make her smile!" His cheeks grow a light shade of red as he smiles.

*Kisaragi places both her hands on the window and focuses her red eyes downward. She may hate using her abilities for the attention it gets her , but she did want to try something out. Something she was told she could now do. Something that could possibly get her the position she wants most.* The view is more then amazing Alito~ *A smile dawns on her face as people slowly gather around the tower and she attempts to reach out further among the populace. Her investment in this experiment now calls for it.* It's the stuff of dreams I say~

(Stops and readys his katana) Who’s there

"He doesn't know anything about the Nexus, so I guess he really is new..." Jiyu mumbles under his breath. "Well anyway, welcome to the Nexus, I'm Jiyu Hatanaka." He extends his right hand out towards Alito for a handshake.

The voice speaks once more as the air around Boi grows heavy with a golden light. "So, the rumors are true and you have in fact returned to the center of the town. With you this close to the entrance way between world's my power is finally able to reach you. I am Lvl 1 Izanagi but not just a Lvl 1 Izanagi. I am the original whom the Yuniverse has been stealing the energy from for centuries. Blu... It is finally time, the Yuniverse has been weakened and it is now possible to travel to their world to destroy it for once and for all. Only you, however, as one who has touch the Yuniverse before have the power to do so... Blu... Will you help me end this nightmare for once and for all?"

[A plume of red smoke appears next to Blu and swirls around him] "Bluuuuuuuuuuuuuuu..."

Guess I can’t rest can I? (Sigh) very well but if things go sideways between you and me I already have a plan B

[A plume of red smoke appears next to Blu and swirls around him] "Bluuuuuuuuuuuuuuu..." (Notices the smoke) you bring someone else with you izanagi?

Alito turns around to Take the handshake "Thank you I guess you know more then me I guess"

"Very well, when the appointed time has come to strike I shall call on you again, Blu. For now I mist gather my energy to prepare for the oncoming invasion..." The golden aura would fade away as the voice stopped speaking.

It's all so obvious, but the thoughts just...they disappear when I try to concentrate. Like...with demon it's mostly some kind of strategy, but... [The young man keeps playing with his own hair.] It just fails me. It's ridiculous, let me tell you. [Kazuya chuckles at his own pathetic self.]

Jiyu lets go of Alito's hand and puts his hand in his pocket. "You shouldn't say that, because I really don't know that much about this place."

"Logic matters little to the heart." Kalib adjusts his glasses as the pedestrians below begin to move oddly. He shrugs it off for the moment before kooking down to Kaz. "Try going in without a strategy. Don't mull over words in your head, just smile and have fun! You'll get the hang of it, without a doubt! I've got faith in ya!"

[The smoke stops in front of Blu and forms into the ultimate persona, Lvl 1 Arsene] "Blu, don't join that gay yellow retard and help me steal the entire Tokyo Tower. We could be the greatest thieves of the Nexus if we do this."

This is amazing~ *Kisaragi can't help but let out a jittery laugh as she notices even more people gathering around the tower. The growing mob outside easily surpasses any mob she attracted before and it fills her with an odd sense of joy. She never enjoyed attracting people before yet seeing the swarm like people outside makes her feel satisfied and twinge powerful.* So this is what it feels like to matter ... *She mutters to herself, as she studies the individuals on the ground as if studying insects.* Maybe I could use this somehow~

Basically... [Kazuya closes his eyes with a nice smile as he slowly stands up once more.] Relax and do what I feel is right, yeah...? I think I can do that, hahaha! [He opens his eyes and rubs the back of his head with his right arm.] I think I may have gotten too used to the "battlefield" mentality.

(Pulls out phone and contacts someone) hey it’s Blu I’ve got into contact with izanagi and decided to join him I need you to get plan B ready whenever I give the signal (Hangs up and leaves the tower)

"That smelly gay just ignored me!" [Arsene turns into a plume of red smoke again and follows Blu out of the tower]

[The smoke stops in front of Blu and forms into the ultimate persona, Lvl 1 Arsene] "Blu, don't join that gay yellow retard and help me steal the entire Tokyo Tower. We could be the greatest thieves of the Nexus if we do this." (Stops in front of arsene) why would I want to steal something I’m a shadow investigator

"Listen Blu, you're already the god of RP, and I'm giving you the chance to be the god of thieves. So, what do you say?"

Kalib watches the man stand back up with a smile. "Just a tad. Not that it hasn't helped in the past... But for something like this, just have fun! That's what living in the present is all about for youth, right?"

Sorry but I’ll have to decline I may know about the cognitive world but I’m no thief

"Hmm, I see. Well I shall be on my way if that's the case. Until we meet again, Blu." [The red plume of smoke fades away]

Something like that, I hate to complicate thing more they actually are. [Kazuya sighs and with a smile, he waves Kalib goodbye as he walks towards the elevator.] Well! See you Kalib, wish me luck in case we actually meet!

*A sharp voice in her head snaps her out of the moment and she blinks. Her eyes alter back to a lighter orange and the effect is lost as many people below the tower look around with confusion. Kisaragi can't help, but hiss at the lost of her power and her smile shifts to a deep frown.* Dangit just when things were getting good! *She shouts that out loud as she stomps over to the elevator. Looking back one last time she knows she will try her ability again the moment she can. The elevator then takes her down and and she wades through the confused crowd. Loosing herself in it.*

Kalib waves Kaz off with a smile. "You bet! Ciao!" He'd then turn back to the window, noticing the crowd disperse. "Never a dull moment, huh?" With that he heads down the elevator and into the coming night.

Alright then (Leaves the tower)
