The Scarlet Mist Incident.
*you wake up from your slumber to find yourself in a forest. it's slightly misty here, but nothing too unusual for a cold morning. Well that is, until you realize the mist has a red glow.

You and your allies pack your things. What do you do ?
Nya... a weird dream. Time to find out where this mist comes from.
*Flies in and smacks into a tree*
GHA!
*Nacci's hair and eyes turn purple and black, and she begins to float up into the sky, attempting to locate anything poking above the mist.*
*he slowly gets up off the ground*
Red mist, waking up somewhere I DEFINITELY didn't fall asleep in. What is this, Silent Hill?
*I look around cautiously, shouldering my pack and holding my sword cautiously (Equilibrium Schema)*

Is everyone packed up? I don't like this mist
*As everyons makes sure they're ready to go, nacci flies high up in the air.
There, he notices a Mansion which seems to stand in the middle of the mist. it's likely to be the source of it.
*Nacci, reverts to her normal state and falls to the ground.*

I believe this is a good location to head to.

*She points to the direction of the mansion.*
*Stands up*
Oww... Can't see anything in this fog!

Who are you people!?
ooc: Phone at 7 percent, so may randomly vanish
*he sighs, and grabs his staff off the ground*

Yeah, I'm ready as I'll ever be. Mist is kinda lame though. Knowing this place we're probably going to have to hit something to clear it.
Come to think of it, wasn't there some kinda goddess who used fog?
Let's head there, then! ...Hopefully we don't trip over anything.
Also, here's a quick rule reminder.

Right now everything is in narrative so it doesn't really matter. but once an enemy shows, I'll write update and starting from there, no more actions will be taken into account. Once I send the update, you may all give your actions. Once everyone moved, I'll send another update. This is a narrative game, so try and do more then just
-megidolaon !
- I took a hit
- another megidolaon !
-another hit !
-Diarahan
-another hit
Megidolon !
Try and be creative !
Indeed.

*Is turn towards where Nacci was pointing and motion for her to lead, and the rest of us to follow suit*
ooc: gotta leave now, phone almost dead and parade starts soon
Well, I don't have any better ideas. Why not?

*casually follows Lightning towards the mansion, arms behind his head, still holding onto his staff*
Affirmative. Progression beginning.

*Nacci follows behind the others.*
Well..... Whoever you are! Its Obvious you are in dire need of MY help! I shall accompany you!
* as you walk down the bushy path, a voice yells to you
" WAIT !!"

* a small girl comes flying towards you. Her jade hair and opal skirt flutter along as she avoids the branches.

Y-You shouldn't go that way ! The Youkai over there are really really strong !
Strong opponent?

*I twirl my blade, smiling*

Then why not continue that way?
HA! Silly fairy! There are none Youkai stronger than I!.... Me?! Whatever, I'm strong, got it?
Youkai? What on earth is a Youkai? Didn't have them on my world, and it doesn't seem to have come up before.
*Gamma shrugs*
Well, sounds like we just have to fight them anyways. No big deal.
I suggest caution. The word Youkai can be used both the singular and plural of the word, meaning there may be more than one strong opponent ahead. As strong as you may think yourself, this is an unknown situation.
I'll take down whatever stands in my way. I'll drown them in Chaos.
But you don't get it ! They eat humans like you ! I warned you ok ?! * she flies off, heading back to where she came from.

What do you do ?
Ooc: need another person?
*he just stares at Lightning*
OK then.... You're SUPER aggro now. We should at least see what they do so we can beat them easier.
( yeah. you can join ace)
*Shrugs nonchalantly*

Well, an enemy is an enemy. There yokai sound like dangerous pests. We should deal with them, no?
I am not human, therefore I do not worry. I shall follow your lead.
Is no one going to bother explaining what just happened to me?
*sighs*

I don't even know what a Yokai is, maybe we could, you know, talk to them? And if they want a fight, we don't lose. Simple as that
Alright! Lets check this place out! Your not afraid of a little ghost right!
* I assume you all decide to go after the fairy, so you go after her.

After following the road for a short while, you arrive at a lake. Well, it should've been a lake since it's the middle of summer, but for some reason it's completely frozen up.
As you stand there, you notice something else too. The mist isn't limited to the forest, it's spreading everywhere. The skies themselves are already blood-red and if this continues, it may well take-over the whole Nexus ! But right now, we're still quite a ways away from that worst case scenario.

Thus, you all stand at the edge of the forest. In front of you a giant frozen lake, behind you the dark forest. What do you do ?
Hey! Someone went ahead and froze the lake for us!

*Proceeds to walk on the frozen lake*
*Nacci begins to walk around the lake, heading for their destination, the Mansion.*
*taps the ice with my sword, testing its stability*
I don't trust the lake, so I think I'll make sure its a bit more... Solid.
Shiranui, Ice Age if you would.
*his persona bursts into life around him, and he covers the lake in another layer of ice. Then follows Utsuho onto it*
Its just a bit of ice! Come on lets go people!

*Junpei starts to run over the Ice, however while moving, slips and falls flat on his face
OOC: can I hop in?
* the ice seems stable. that dumb bird can walk on it just fine. In fact, it seems quite thick. As though frozen with love and care.
( @HibkiKuze yup. feel free)
* you walk on the ice, heading towards the mansion when suddenly, a child's voice stops you.

HALT !!!
Don't run! Just walk carefully. *Hibki walks across the ice slowly and carefully losing his footing at one point, trips, and slides a few feet before getting back up and walking again*
This is my lake ! I froze it so it's mine ! You're not allowed here !
Apologies, young lady.

Comrades, I advise walking around the lake like a sensible person.
*sighs*
Let me guess, another magical child? Because nothing is allowed to be normal around here.
*he continues walking towards the mansion on the slightly thickened ice*
Sorry just let me go back. *Hibki starts running back but slips and slides the rest of the way back.* Ow ow ow.
Don't worry guys, you have Junpei here!

*Junpei walks up to Cirno and tries to charm her into letting them through
Uh huh...I doubt your logic child.

*summons my shield, and with a running flip, lands on it like a board, surfing across the slippery frozen surface*
I'm not a child ! I'm a fairy ! I'm Cirno the Ice fairy and I'm the strongest !
I'm not a child ! I'm a fairy ! I'm Cirno the Ice fairy and I'm the strongest !
You may have frozen it! But I can melt it!

*Puffs out her chest in pride*
( @Ace_Defective she's a child. She doesn't understand what you try to do and simply looks at you dumbfound)
D-Don't melt my lake ! I'll have to refreeze it if you do !
*skilfully surfs past Cirno, and shrugs*

You can't own something just because its frozen. Thats very childish thinking. Hence your label of "Child".
*Talking to @Ace_Defective* did you seriously try to flirt with a child. You're messed up.
*the look on his face reads "how am I stuck with these idiots"*
Look, don't pick a fight with a ch- I mean fairy. Its beneath you, and we have bigger things to worry about.
Ok, Cirno. Sorry for trespassing on your lake, we didn't know. But most of us are about halfway across so it would be just as easy for us to go through as to turn around. Is it fine if we just pass through?
Don't worry Fairy! I'm sure An all powerful fairy like yourself could Refreeze it in no time!
C-come on! I had good intentions!
* creates a giant ice wall right infront of Light

get back here !

I won't let you pass ! you've made me hangry ! ( mistakes are on purpose )
i'll show you the power of the storngest fairy ever !

*she blocks the path with giant ice walls. you are now in an icy arena

RUMIA !!! DAIYOUSEI !!! WE HAVE INTRUDERS !!!
*Nacci continues to walk around the lake, motioning for her comrades to continue.*
*sighs*
And now she's throwing a temper tantrum. Fantastic.
WOULD YOU AT LEAST TRY TALKING TO THE THING RATHER THAN TRYING TO KILL IT IMMEDIATELY?
Good thing I already "walked" away.
Tch...damn!

*sweeps blade and flips back off board*

Burn in hell!

*upon landing, I spin as a first red dress replaces NY armor, and my sword melds I to a staff*

I suppose I can just melt it.
*a large sphere of darkness floats up to Cirno* is that so?
* since Hibki and Em weren't on the lake, they are outside.
*Nacci, locked outside of the arena, turns into her Fire form and begins to heat the outside of part of an ice wall to make an opening in it.*
Yeah ! we have to show them the power of us fairies !!! ( even though rumia isn't a fairy )
*turns to Rumia*
And now there's another child. Let me guess, you're also some kinda fairy? We're JUST trying to figure out what's happening, could we maybe NOT fight?
C-come on now! There's no need to get violent! We just need to get to the mansion!
* turns before nacci can enter the arena : 3
A fight! OK!

Break sun!

*A small sun like orb burns in her hand and begins firing smaller suns in all directions*
Okay! We'll show them the power of team ⑨! *The sphere loses some of it's darkness. You can faintly see the outline of a girl insight*
A fight? Then fine. I'll show you the power of The Savior!

*Readies stance and shifts into a shining set of silver Armor (Knight of Etro Schema), spinning my gunblade and summoning my shield forth*

Ever fight a God before?
( alright, fight time ! Update mode activate !
I guess it can't be helped now! Lets go Persona!

*Junpei drsws his envoker and summons Trismegetus which then flys at the fairies at light speeds cutting them up with his wings

Vorpal Blade!
( players, give your actions !)
A fight! OK! Who Needs to aim!

Break sun!

*A small sun like orb burns in her hand and begins firing smaller suns in all directions*
*Nacci continues to push her way through the Ice.*
*groans*
How am I the only one who isn't here to stab things? I don't even know what is happening.
Well, if its a fight you want, its a fight you'll get.
Shiranui!! Eigaon!!
*Gamma's persona, an eastern dragon made of blue fire appears, winding itself through the air around him*
*tendrils of darkness come from Gamma's right sleeve, he grabs onto these tendrils and swings them at Cirno like a whip*
UPDATE
*Lightning spins her blade and raises it to the sky*

For Valhalla! Wild Thunder!

*The air crackles and smells of ozone as a a bolt of lightning comes down, striking her sword, splitting it into a powerful storm that attacks both Cirno and Rumia! (Severe Elec Multi attack)*
Alright lets get some buffs going! Trismegetus!

*Junpei summons his persona and a blue light washes over all his allies

Marakuja!
OOC: Wait for the actual update post before doing more actions. You'll want to react to the enemy's actions
Ooc: just a bit confused on what was going on
( since there are two enemies, you'll have to wait for both me AND star to write our updates. Sorry for the annoyance. )

@light, N-No... But I'm sure I'm just as strong as one !

Trismegistus, flying faster then the eye can see slashes all over the arena. Cirno takes ends up with cuts all over her body.
Cirno focuses on the Sun-Spewing-bird and manages to graze most of the mini-suns, though she gets burned a little " Ow Ow Ow !! That burns !"

I won't let you burn my lake down ! Spell card ! Freeze Sign "Perfect Freeze" ( Severe ice damage to all enemies. Causes frostbite for three turns-> prevents users from using physical attacks. goes away if user uses a fire skill) * Cirno sends out a vast amount of ice balls, each one so cold they burn. After a while, the balls freeze in place, taking anyone moving by surprise. After a while, the temperature rises slightly again and the balls resume their course before fading away

As Cirno concentrates on her spell, she gets whipped by Gamma, without managing to notice how much it really hurts. it does hurt her though.

Cirno then gets severely shocked by Light's lightning. She's smoking and electrified, her hair standing straight.

" You're all really strong.. But I'm stronger !!!!

84% hp remaining
Don't worry Cirno! I'll show them the power of darkness! Darkness Sign "Demarcation"! *Rumia fires bullets of light in rows at everyone, oblivious to the fact she might hit Cirno*
ooc: Charging my phone, but will probably rejoin the party once the fight's over. I'll just say that Cait got lost on the way.
* so, after much debate,

*cirno gets hit by demarcation and gets hit by what are actually lasers (if I remember my spell cards correctly)
" R-Rumia ! You're firing at me ! The enemy's the other way !
( end of update)
*Nacci continues to work her way through the thick ice wall. 1 turn left.*
Alright lets get some buffs going! Trismegetus!

*Junpei summons his persona and a blue light washes over all his allies

Marakuja!
Whoops! Sorry! *Turns around to face the players*
*he tries to smack away some of the ice balls with his dark whip, but they simply pass through it and strike him anyways, causing the whip to dissapate. Gamma is winded, but not particularly hurt*

T.... That's cold.. Even for me. Well, the other girl seems to be helping us for some reason. Which means, sorry Cirno, don't like picking on a little girl, but you won't listen.
Shranui, Eigaon.
*once again he uses the dark tendrils to form a whip, which whistles through the air towards Cirno*
*Hibki casts an Agidyne at the part of the wall Nacci is working on* That should loosen it up!
*Takes an Ice hit*

Grr! Stupid little fairy!

Shooting sun!

*Utsuho flies up in the air and throws a MiniSun at Cirno*
Gah!

*braces and takes the ice attack, lowering to one knee.*

Shit...That's the one issue with having Crimson Bloom..Fuck...

*Weak to Ice, Turn Lost*
Update
* A loud detonation can be heard from outside the icy walls in which you are all trapped. A small portion of the wall breaks down, wide enough to let a person or two pass through

*cirno, having benn hit by her weakness, falls down, her stupidity delaying the reaction.
Gah !

* she proceeds to get the crap beaten out of her by all who did so. Sadly, not many people seized this chance resulting in only Utsuho firing suns at the poor ice fairy while gamma whips her back into shape.

This time I'll hit them for sure! Night sign “Night bird” *Rumia fires bullets at everyone, doing six light hits of darkness*
Ooc: whoops. Forgot health.
Health: 92%
OOC: got hit by weakness last turn, so skip this one for me...
( gimme yo' moves playas)
*Nacci breaks through the Ice thanks to Hibki. She rolls onto the battlefield, and begins to shoot Fire Dust bullets at Cirno with one hand, and at Rumia with the other.*
*Hibki walks through the hole in the arena and gets into a battle stance ready to fight*
(show me you moves!)
(I regret nothing!)
*he laughs at Rumia's attack, taking the hit with a smile*
OK kid, nice try. But if you want to play too, I'll show you what a real attack can do.

Shiranui, Hassou Tobi.
*his Persona blazes into life around him, before slashing at both rumia and cirno for 8 light physical hits, slightly weakened by the frostbite*
*Stands up looking angrier than before*

Prick. I'll turn you to Ash!

*She spins, armor clanking as she slams her fist into the ground, causing it to shake and Fire explode around Cirno and Rumia*

(Maragilao, Med Fire Dmg, mutli)
Brrrr.... its c-c-cold....

*Junpei shivering summons his persona
Tri-tri-trismegetus!

*Then fire erupts from underneath Cirno blasting her with fire
*A certain cat enters through the hole* Finally found you guys... stupid mist made me get lost, nya.
update ?
Cirno, getting blasted one last time by almost the entirety of the team, finally stands back up.

" You're so annoying ! Rumia ! Show them your magic !!! And I'll show you the power of my ice !"

Spell card ! - Ice Sign "Icicle Fall" ( High ice damage to all. 2 hits)
* Cirno flighs high up in the sky, and freezes the air around her to make giant icicles that fall like .. well, an icicle.

Heheh ! Never forget the power of Cirno ! The strongest fairy in gensokyo !!! (even though she's not in gensokyo anymore)
( Frost bite wears off)
Ouch! Hot hot hot! I'm not food, you are! *Rolls around in the snow, putting herself out while she gets pummeled with attacks before floating back up to her previous spot* fine, if you want to play so rough, I'll play rough as well! Darkness Sign “ Dark side of the moon” (gives players the “ Dark Seal” status effect, prevents magic from being cast goes. Goes away with light) *Rumia expands her sphere of darkness, covering the arena. It looks like it's a dark night in the arena now. You can see Rumia a bit better though. Health: 75%*
( HP 51%)
*Hibki tried to cast Holy dance but it failed so he instead readied his left hand with a gauntlet on it and ran up attempting to punch Rumia in the face* Take this!
Mee-ow! *is hit twice* Not fun at all. Sukukaja! *nothing happens* ...Alright then. In that case... *runs over to Rumia to slash her*
*Grazes the attack*

HA! I dont even know HOW I did that!

*Flies High up in the sky and drops herself on cirno, concrete foot first*
*Gamma moves so the icicles mostly scrape him. He seems a little winded after that last attack*
I imagine this won't do much to the ice fairy, but I may as well hit you both.
Shiranui, Ice Age
*the ice can hardly be noticed spreading as the field is already frozen. At least, until it suddenly jumps up to form icicles aimed at Rumia and Cirno*
Im pretty badly hurt... ive gotten step up my game!

*Junpei pulls out a pack of instant ramen and starts to boil water

This will take a second...
*Nacci returns to her base form and does her best to dodge the icicles, using her metal feet to dig into the Ice. She manages to dodge the icicles.*

Hemera.

*A large mechanical spider appears under Nacci, putting her on top of it.*

One-Shot Kill.

*The spider points a leg towards Cirno, and a bullet flies out of it towards her.*
*Lightning attempts to dodge desperately, barely evading the attack*

Time to shift tactics i guess...

*with blinding speed, Lightning rushes forward and launches herself off of the wall, Blitzing Cirno*

(Blitz, Medium Physical Attack executed at blinding speeds, Medium Chance of Launching the target)
date this shaz up baby !
Ouch! That's my face, you-all *gets slashed* ahh! That hurts! I'll just have to reuse my spe-*Ice Age... gets bounced back*...reuse my spells! Darkness sign “demarcation” ( 3-5 medium darkness hits one enemy) *Rumia fires lasers at Nacci*
Ooc: god damnit autocorrect! You-! That's all I wanted to say! Just You-!
Health: 70%
Cirno, not noticing a frog, goes over and screams

YOU !!! HOW DARE YOU WALK ON MY ICE !!! PERFECT FREEZE !!!!!!!!!
*the frog is now a frozen bloc of ice.

*Suddenly, Cirno finds herself lying face in the ice, okuu's foot resting on her T H I C C skull

Hey!! that hurtsh !!!

But then Gamma's ice approaches cirno, which her body automatically absorbs.
" Wow ! that's some pretty cold ice ! But it's nowhere near as cold as mine !

But as soon as she says so, she finds herself laying flat on the ground again, a bullet between her eyes. Once again though her thick stupid brain protects her. kinda.

Guys, do you need help?
( @Leo you can join as a support. Active roster is full. )
Leo
OOC: how can I support?
( well with support skills, like buffs, debuffs, heals. but nothing that would target the enemy. updates are long enough as is)
*Utsuho continues stomping on cirno*

Stupid fairy! Die!
( players, I'm waiting for your input)
Leo
OOC: I'll focus on health.
*Hibki then jumps away and punches Cirno in the face with his left hand* What goes around comes around!

(the left hand is the one with the gauntlet)
*looking at utsuho's.... Actions. He seems a little winded*
Alright, that seems like a bit much. *sighs* I could use some healing after this.
S.. Shiranui. Hassou Tobi

*his persona appears, performing 8 quick slashes in the air around Cirno and rumia. Considering how close Utsuho is to Cirno, she'll likely get caught in the crossfire*
( oh and, no full healing the whole party at every turn. it's no fun if there's no challenge. if your heal is a full heal, make it take three turns to charge. )
( 7 slashes for gamma)
*Junpei pours the boiling water into his cup noodles

Alright! Wont take long now!
Leo
OOC: i was thinking on fortify (mediarama) each 3-4 turns.
Nya... Puss in Boots, Double Fangs on the fairy! I ain't gettin' near that Hassou Tobi! *his Persona appears, trying to strike Cirno with medium phys damage twice*
( neato. I upvote that)
*Nacci is hit by 5 lasers of Darkness, and Hemera disappears. Nacci holds her weight up on her right leg.*

Health Status. ... ... ... Percent remaining: 52%.

She puts her hands up towards Cirno, and fires Electric Dust bullets towards her.*
( still waiting for the others.
Leo
Let me help you guys!

"Uses fortify to the group"
*cirno, being the childish impatient twat she is, decides it's time to update.
Ouch! Okay, it's time to...uhh...hey Cirno, what time is it? I'm getting hungry. For now...Night sign “Night bird”. ( 2 - 7 light dark dmg all enemies) *Rumia launches more bullets of darkness at everyone. Four dark hits!*
*cirno gets punched ( @Hibki touching cirno is like touching carbonic ice so your whole body freezes for a turn) , cut ( same for you. blame the dice) , bitten and electrified again. she's pissed.
(-[Passive] Freeze Touch Me ! ( any physical hit has a 35% chance of freezing the enemy) )
I am so mad at you all ! I'll freeze you all in place !!!

PERFECT FREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEZE!!!!
*this time, it's not a bunch of ice balls she throws your way, it's a bona fide hailstorm. -Freeze Sign "Perfect Freeze" ( Severe ice damage to all enemies. Causes frostbite for three turns-> prevents users from using physical attacks. goes away if user uses a fire skill)


( 39% hp)
*There's no way around it. Cait is freaking screwed. He bursts into shadow, vanishing from the fight. Yes, he's dead, but Hibki can just re-summon him after the fight. A Recarm can bring him back, too.*

Ooc: oh yeah anti magic is off.
*Even when Hibki unfreezes he's knocked out*
*Junpei uses the ramen cup to deflect the attacks

Hey! Cirno! Rumia! How would you like some of my Cup Ramen! Its beef flavored!

*Junpei puts seasoning on the ramen, and finishes it off with 2 pairs of chopsticks

Ill let you have some if you stop fighting and let us past!
*Nacci is unable to avoid the hailstorm, and freezes up.
Nacci is weak to Ice, and loses a turn.*
*after the heal, he seems more annoyed than injured*
OK brats, trying to teach you a lesson is getting kinda old.. And Cold.
Shiranui.....
Ok, what are you even trying to do Junpei?
*he guards, eying the girls warily*
*suddenly, the hailstorm stops and cirno flies as fast as she can towards the ramen bowl

Y-YOU'D GIVE IT TO ME ???
*kneels down, taking the damage*

Gah!

*Weak to Ice, looses turn*

Damn it...Come on come on come on...

(25% HP)
Beef!? Yes! I'll stop! Just give me meat!
Now hold on! You have to let us past and stop fighting!
Sure sure whatever you want master ! just gimme da food !
Sure! Just give it here! I'm hungry! *Is drooling slightly*
*he eyes the three, obviously confused*

I.... What? That worked? That seriousl... *sighs* Whatever. I told you guys we shouldn't just run into a fight. Nice to know that basically everyone here is weak to Shiranui though.
You better not be lying to me!

*Junpei puts the ramen cup down and gives it to both Cirno and Rumia, while pulling out a bowl of cup ramen for everyone

Whos da man! Cup Ramen for everyone!
Mine! *Starts eating the ramen with Cirno*
* the smell of good tasty ramen brings the unconscious back to life.
*he accepts a bowl of ramen*
What is even... Nevermind. We can eat as we walk. Lets get out of here before those two change their minds.
*Cait isn't back yet, although he can be summoned with the app.*
*Hibki is probably still frozen*
Victory achieved. I suggest we begin our journey into the Mansion proper.
*wakes up*
What was I doing?

Oh! Right!

*Takes off and flies away*
Aw come on! We might be able to score some ch- I mean get some information!
Wait a second
*he walks over to the frozen Hibki. taps him a few times with his staff, then Swings, Hard, to break the ice*
You're welcome kid.
* cirno, still eating, looks at the party

So, *slurp* why're you guysh heading over there ?
Leo
Good job guys.
*Hibki wakes up* Brrr.*He opens his phone and summons Cait Sith after reviving and healing him* that should work.
*he turns to Leo*
Thanks for the heal, never seen you before. Let me guess, new around here?

*answering cirno*
Honestly we're just going there because we're lost and there's not much else to direct us. Plus maybe we can do something about this red mist.
well, if I were * slurp gobble* you * burp* I wouldn't go there. there's a creepy vampire in there, and she's up to her old antics again. You're better of waiting for Reimooh to come and kick her ass. That's how it went down last time
*isn't listening, caring too much for the food*
*Appears in a cloud of red and black energy* Nya, what happened... Oh, right. I died. Thanks for bringing me back, nya.
Could you tell us about this Vampire?

*Junpei cracks open a cold soda while listening
*sighs*
Yeah, there are also a bunch of crazy fairies who enjoy attacking people for no reason. I think we'll be fine ok? Anything else you'd like to add?
Looks like it was a good choice to make that contract. *Hibki walks to the end of the lake to the end where the mansion was grabs some sticks and starts a fire with Agi*
Well I don't know much about her. She eats humans though. But the gate keeper is nice though ! she comes and plays with us sometimes !
*Runs* hey guys wait up! I was in that must too ya know! *Now out of breath, Bona makes it there*
Hey....guys....
*Kneels, casting Curaja on self and letting out a sigh*

This is all quite ridiculous..

*mumbles*

Such a child...
Huh? I'm not a fairy. I'm a Youkai!
Eats humans? Sounds like a demon, nya. Maybe I can have a demon-to-demon chat with her.
*frustrated at the repeated Yokai mentions*
NO ONE HAS TOLD ME WHAT THAT EVEN MEANS. So sure, I'll go with it. You're a Yokai. So what?
Anyway, i'm going to freeze some more frogs. Be careful humans !
Oh. A Yo-Kai or youkai is a spirit. Of a animal demon of something like that.
Uhh...some of us eat humans...we get called demons sometimes...uhh...
*thus, our valiant team probably procedes to leave the frozen lake and head towards the mansion. crossing the lake puts them halfway there and since it's now past noon, you all consider to take a break.
( also, the gm is hungry too so he's taking a break. I'll stay here to answer questions though)
Okay! Good thing we have that ramen! You know! I should set up a ramen stall here!
Hey guys I have a fire started we should warm up before we go further.
*above them, a strange woman in a gap watches them* hmm...this will be interesting...and most certainly entertaining...hmhmhm...
*apparently exhausted*
So basically. They're demons. You know, the things we fight all the time? And no one felt the need to tell me until after we fought to of them.
Cirno to gamma: I'm not a youkai ! I'm a fairy !
Come on man, shadows are way less tough!
*yelling at Cirno*
Sorry to break it to you, but last I checked, fairies were a group of demons. Demons = Youkai. You're a Youkai.
Cirno: OK YOU DON'T HAVE TO SHOUT AT ME !!!
*Nanaka happens to be sleeping where the others set up their rest point*

Mmnnnmmmm
*cue facepalm*
How am I always stuck dealing with such idiots? WHAT DID I DO TO DESERVE THIS?
*a gap appears in front of everyone, and stepping out of it is me. The gap closes shortly after I step out* my, that was quite an entertaining fight to watch.
*purring and curled up next to the fire*
At least I was smart enough to start a campfire after that battle with the ice Youkai. It's going strong if you need to warm up
Oh damn! Who are you!
*taps Nanaka's shoulder*
*with yet another sigh, Gamma sounds noticably frustrated*
Hib, Ice is kinda my thing. I feel perfectly fine. In fact, I kinda like how cold it was. You may not have noticed, but neither of them could do much of anything effective.
Hmmmm....
*she stirs a bit, but stays asleep*
I needed it honestly. I've never been frozen solid before. It felt weird.
I am Yukari Yakumo, the Youkai of boundaries. I'm here to check up on you all after that fight. I'm curious how you all feel about storming the mansion.
( @Yukari_Yakumo don't plot >w< no reveals or anything ! ok ?
*opens an eye* I might die again, but I guess we have no choice but to explore it, nya...
Yukarichi huh? Can you use a bow?
*shakes Nanaka a bit more, sighing gently*
Oh for crying....
You know what, I don't even care anymore. I'm taking a break.
Shiranui, Ice age.
*Gamma forms a little tent out of ice, then walks inside, and creates more ice to close it*
Let's go. *Hibki sneezes and keeps shivering* *Somewhat nasally* I'm fine. We can keep going.
Hmm?

*Nana blinks a bit, the sees Claire and hugs her*

Onee-chan!
Whats that guys problem? He get mood swing too or something?
Why use a bow when I can manipulate the boundaries between say, oh, I don't know, life and death? And don't call me that.
OOC: Liam, our GM, is taking a break for a bit. So we can't really do much of anything for now. He'll probably post when he's ready.
You're shivering like crazy, nya. *makes the fire a little bigger with Maragi* Relax a bit.
( I'm cooking)
*Shaking even more* I'm fine but I do feel somewh- *He passes out*
H-hey! What's wrong? *runs over to Hibki, giving him a little shake* Are humans normally this temperature? ...I'd say he's sick, nya. *puts his cape over Hibki*
Hmm...this is boring...I thought you all would be more entertaining to talk to...
*Mumbling in his sleep* So cold. Why is it so cold?
Well, I can't exactly talk to ya when I'm busy with this guy! *another Maragi intensifies the campfire* ...I don't really know how to help sick humans, nya.
Aw come on Yuka-Tan! We have ramen!
Click to load youtube video you guys during this plot)
Don't call me that as well. And do you really think I want ramen? I came here to talk to you all, and now I'm bored.
Hi Purple Lady!

*Nana waves violently*
Alright then Yukarichtan! Come on! I know you'll like it!
Hello. My name is Yukari Yakumo, as I'm sure you didn't hear. And do I have to run you over with a train to get you to call me by my name and not something else with my name in it?
*hugs Nanaka gently*

Hi sis. What brings you here?
Ok Yaku-chan! Wanna play a game!
Well! See! This BIG mansion appeared! So I was gonna say Hi! But the lake was cold! So I lit a fire to get warm! Then I fell asleep!

Why Is the air all red?
I've had enough experience with trains Yukamomo...
...if anyone calls me by anything that isn't Yukari next time, I'm them over with a train. But sure, what game?
*It is just now noticed that Hibki's fingertips have gotten frost bite along with the tip of his nose*
*muffled groaning can be heard from inside the ice tent*
I wanna dodge a bunch of trains!
Nya... this is bad... *manages to get Hibki closer to the fire and runs off to get some sticks*
...sure. why not? *A train runs straight into @Akamoto_Nanaka from point-blank...from above her. The train disappears into a gap, the same way it appeared*
*Is laying on the ground, dazed*
too too twain.... tooo tooooo....
Hmhmhm! That was amusing.
*As the train blows by the wind blows Hibki's thermos out of his bag. Somehow the hot chocolate is still very hot*
( Suprise mothafucka)
( I'm done munching on spaghettos)
*throws some sticks onto the fire and picks up the thermos* What's this, nya... hot chocolate? Dunno how it stayed warm during that attack but... Ah, there's an idea! Hey, can you hear me? *shakes Hibki a little*
ooc: spaghettos are good for the hungrios
*Hinki groans mumbling what almost sounds like a yes*
*shortly after the crash occurs, the ice tent's door opens. Gamma quickly walks out*
Ok. What did you idiots do this time?
*Stands up still a little dizzy*
I entertained our guest for a bit!
Why, I only did what was asked of me.
*noticing Yukari*
PLEASE say you're not going to randomly try killing people like everyone else around here seems to want to do.
*opens the thermos* Drink this, okay? Dunno if it'll help, but it's warm, nya.
( wrap things up and decide to move out. )
Why, I have no idea what you're talking about. I'm simply here because I was bored and curious about how you all felt about that battle.
*Hibki wakes up and almost collapses again Taking the thermos in his hands letting them warm up before drinking the hot chocolate.* Much better. What happened the last thing I remember was I ran up to punch a ice fairy and then everything else seems to have stopped.
*now seriously confused*
Ok first, why would you care how we felt about the fight?
Second, you SERIOUSLY just watched? Is people randomly trying to kill each other normal around here?
Well, she kinda froze both of us. Ya seemed fine once ya summoned me again, but suddenly collapsed. You okay to get moving soon? Everyone seems ready to investigate the mansion.
*Junpei starts to pack up his ramen supplies

I know! Ill be a wandering Ramen Vendor when this is over!
Because I'm curious. And we don't kill. Sure, we'll beat each other senseless for meaningless reasons, but we won't kill.
( let's not forget, this is still the nexus, not actually gensokyo. The scarlet devil mansion and it's immediate environments were sent here that's all.
Yeah let's go they might have heat. *Hibki puts the lid back on and puts the thermos in his bag before trying to walk to the mansion but he doesn't have enough strength to walk at a normal pace and almost collapses again.*
So basically you're saying we're going to get attacked again out of nowhere and we should just expect it at this point.
*sarcastically*
Fantastic. LOVING this place more by the minute
*raises paw* I got killed, but it didn't really do much. Demon stuff and all.
Hey, take it easy, nya. You can walk a bit slower if ya need to. There's no rush for you to join a potential fight.
Don't worry Hibki I got you. *Uses Psiodyne to lift them up gently and carry*
( mental attacks to carry people. seems legit.)
Your right. I just need to get out of this cold. *Hibki falls again but gets back up* I'm goona need some help.
Ooc: oh sorry u probs don't know much about my RP character but he practiced Psi skills enough to be able to lift people up without hurting them and move them around.
This place is from Gensokyo Gammy, What do you expect? A high tension battle is a GREETING!
Ive got you!

*Junpei lends Hibiki his shoulder

Lets get going!
I didn't say that. Oh, look at the time. I must be going now. Bye! *Gaps away*
I mean; Psi isn't psy. psi is literally a mental attack. as in, i send a virus in your brain and you suffer brain damage. At least I'm pretty sure that's what it is.
You never denied it either.
*sighs*
Let's just get to the mansion and get this mess over with.
*moves towards the mansion once again*
ooc: Maybe give Bona a few Garu skills as a retcon? If needed.
( can I assume you're all following gamma ?)
*Being lifted* This feels kinda cool. Let's keep going then.
*Follows Lightning*
Nya ha! Let's go! *raises sword*
* you all decide to leave the lake. If you turn back, you can see a smiling Cirno flying around, freezing frogs while Rumia's just floating around enjoying the dankness.

Finally, after some more walking, the mansion is finally in sight. It's pretty large, and surrounded by impenetrable and insanely high walls. at the center is what seems to be a gate with a person standing in front of it. From this far away, you can't quite make out the details.
OK, before anyone does anything stupid can we please try talking to the person instead of trying to make them mad? It's at least worth a shot.
*Still in the air* So how do we do this?
No worries, you've got Jumpei! Ill just use my charm!
*Walks up to gate*
HI!!! My name's Nanaka! Whats yours!?

*Holds out hand*

I came to say HI! And welcome to the Nexus!
Is that the gatekeeper, nya? Should I go talk to them? I heard they're a demon like me...

ooc: inb4 cait gets punted out
*Welcome you all to the Nexus*
*facepaw* ...Or that
*Gamma glares at Junpei*
I'd rather freeze you here and move on than give you that chance. The Ramen only worked because they were carefree children. At best I expect you to offend them.
Jumpei no! Bad Jumpei!
*snores. moans

nmnmnmmmnng not the knives.... nmngmnmgn
* she's seems to be asleep. the gate behind her is closed
*whispers* You think we can sneak past, nya?
