Mass-Interaction in Desset

Who: Draftees.
What: FIGHT FOR YOUR LIVES... or wander around. idfk.
When: Anytime this week.
Where: Desset City
Summary: Mass-interaction post in the city for the poor souls who've been drafted.
Rating: Anywhere from PG to R.

[With permission from the mods, I've gone ahead and put up this... post... for everyone who was interested in actually threading in the city. You can either prose or write in first-person; totally up to you. Actually threading a fight with the Third Party is also optional. Just keep in mind that if you do you'll have to be the one controlling the enemy's actions and whatnot. If you're not sure how to go about that, just remember the information they've provided us with. They're not very tough, but if you still need an idea with how they fight, just read up on this a bit. Please do remember that the enemies we're fighting are weaker compared to the ones previously fought, though. |D;

But yeah. Mass-interaction, guys. YOU KNOW WHAT TO DO.]

[Albert pushed his satchel behind him as he followed after Ted, steadying himself as he ran into more cracked concrete. The roof ahead was still in one piece, and he pressed against the wall once they had made their way over to it.

Meanwhile, the lights had reached ground level. The cultists were now searching on foot.]

[The human in the metal-thing doesn't want to be torn apart, thanks very much. Fortunately for all concerned, the Freeze spell hits - he wasn't sure it would, really, but it was the best he'd had - and Chaos starts plunging from the sky.]

[Cid wheels the truck around again, keeping an eye on where the demon falls, then guns it in the direction that he went down. It only takes a brief time of searching to find him - and when he does, Cid swears once again.]

Fuck!

[Chaos is still moving. Not much, and there's not very many places he can go, but Cid knows this - take him down or no more Vince. Only one thing left he can do.]

[Biting on the cigarette in his teeth, he slams on the gas pedal again - he's only got about a hundred yards to the demon, as well.]

[Of course Chaos is still kicking around after that. He has a singular purpose to fulfill... but he can't do that so well from the ground. The demonic creature twitches and attempts to spread out his wings. One of them is still frozen, the damage not so easily shaken off... Nor can he dodge the incoming vehicle, either.]

[As the truck slams into Chaos, it adds to his injuries, and renders him unconscious in the process. Remarkably, he still lives after that. It would definitely take a LOT more power to kill him entirely, but fortunately for Cid that's not needed to get rid of him this time. Being knocked out as he is, his consciousness fades to the background. He de-transforms from monster to human.]

[He frowned, keeping silent as he watches the movements of lights, making sure not to be seen whenever they moved it towards their direction.

His hand went back to his arrow though, still not pulling it, but ready just in case.]

[Fortunately for Vincent, not Chaos, Cid also slams on the brakes. So while he goes smashing into the demon, it's not as fast as it could be, and Vincent doesn't get completely run over. Sent flying into a wall, but not run over.]

[Cid bails from the truck, still holding his spear, and runs over to his friend - and finally, finally Chaos is gone. Vince isn't doing too good, but he's got a fix for that, too: it takes most of the rest of his magic, but he casts Full-Cure on the ex-Turk and waits to see what effect it has. If they're ambushed, he can fight them off, but he'd rather Vincent just wake up really quickly.]

[Yes, thanks for not running him totally over, Cid. Although this is Vincent and he would accept trucks driving over him as PENANCE. No, really. :|]

[Anyway. Vincent lays there a moment as the spell takes effect, healing truck-induced damage that's carried over. His breathing steadies and he drifts back to consciousness. Although, frustratingly, the mental battle in his head isn't letting up. His mind is a very dangerous place right now and he knows it's still going to be a fight to contain Them.]

[But he finally has regained enough of his senses to realize where he is and what needs to happen now. Vincent half-sits up and looks to Cid with a subtle nod of thanks.]

...We cannot linger here.

Got that right. Come on, get up.

[And he's grabbing Vince's hand to pull the taller man to his feet, ready to act as a support until he can get his legs working properly. The truck's pretty dented now so he's not trusting it, but he does go over to get his explosives out of it first.]

Let's get ya back t'the hotel.

[Vincent accepts the hand and makes an effort to steady himself. At the moment he can't rely on being able to keep any of Them contained either, and it's taking all his effort to do that much. He's aware that their captors will likely force him back out to battle when he seems physically rested, but... Mentally is another thing entirely. He's not able to entirely regain himself in that regard and it troubles him.]

...They're too strong.

[He sounds even more detached than usual, as he's so mentally distracted. He waits for Cid to gather his things.]

[The lights are lingering at that same distance several yards away, as if the cultists are trying to decide where to do. They eventually split up, two of the lights growing larger as the cultists move closer.

Albert sinks back against the wall, trying to look around in the dark. They could duck down a nearby alleyway, but there was no telling how long they would be in the dark there and what was on the other side. For now, he just keeps low and watches the lights.]

[Ted frowns, annoyed at the fact that they came this way, since he had hoped to avoid battle. He didn't want to move too much in case they notice him shift in movement, but he was wary since he wasn't sure just how they fought. Hopefully they don't have some strange ability that makes them appear all over the place in one go.

The lights getting bigger was not making him feel better.]

[gg, Ted, you managed to puncture the cultist's wings. He's yells in pain staggering to his knees. This isn't over yet, however, and in a desperate attempt use a shift to... well. Throw some stone rubble at Ted. If that's how it works. ~~If that's wrong, he... well, just assume he does something to try and hurt Ted by using the rubble near them. Whether it's throwing it at him, or--yeah. /shot~~]

['Kay, so, MEANWHILE Noel's getting in the face of the other two. Or one, seeing as how the other one noticed their comrade in arms was in danger and is now heading for Ted ~~WATCH OUUUTTT~~. Her enemy tries to take a swing at her with his weapon, but she counters by blocking it with one gun and then proceeding to shoot him at point-blank range. While he tries to recover from the blow she activates Chain Revolver, which means ~~if Ted can even see it~~ she's now glowing black and is unleashing a shitload of combos on the poor Third Party member. Which, yes, involve more of that Armagus/Magic bullet shooting thing. Noel herself is being rather quiet during all this.]

[Gosh darn you stupid Third Parties and your weird as heck magic! Ted quickly dodges that, one of the rubble flying past his head and leaving a cut on his cheek, a rather deep one at that. He didn't even give himself room to think as he started shooting arrows at both his assailants, his aim practiced to perfection from years of running from enemies.

He doesn't even spare a glance for Noel, not now, though he does notice the glowing from his peripheral vision. He'll have to take note and ask Noel about that afterward.]

[And since the poor guy you shot earlier was already in agonizing pain due to the wings getting punctured, that arrow will prooobably do him in. Meaning he won't have the strength to retaliate now, so he's just going to lay there and die in slow, agonizing pain. Right-o. The other one, though? The other one is in much better shape than his friend laying there, so the moment she sees you knocking that arrow, she's going to roll forward; narrowly avoiding getting hit by it. She gets to her feet, using the shift attack herself ~~again, using stone~~ in an attempt to divert the attention from herself, if only for a second or two as she moves in to try and smack Ted upside the head with the blunt end of her weapon. That is, only if the shift managed to distract him long enough.]

[With the other fight, the enemy person managed to find a good moment to strike Noel; after she finished that combo. This entails slashing at her mid-section. She sees this and backs away quickly enough to avoid getting a fatal wound, but not fast enough to avoid getting cut entirely. It hurts, but Noel's... gonna have to ignore it for now. Or try to, ow. Instead she'll be using those legs to kick the cultist in the face. And once he falls over because of that kick? She's shooting him. While he's down. Good thing it's just magic bullets, though!!!1]

That one catches him off guard all right, and he lets out a yelp in pain as he falls to the ground, head pounding from the impact. Damn, that was stupid. He could feel the rune reacting to that hit, considering it as a threat, and Ted growled to himself as he willed the rune not to take over. Noel will get involved if it decides to activate on it's own, after all.

Damn, that made him dizzy.]

[WATCH OUT, TED. She's wasting no time as she raises that weapon over her head, ready to land the finishing blow. HURRY. DO SOMETHING. /screme]

[Noel's too busy in her own little world to notice what's happening with the other fight; the only thing she can focus on now is her enemy as he gets up, using the shift to throw... BROKEN GLASS!!!!1 ~~dear god why~~ She's putting up that handy green barrier to block most of it, though some do manage to get past and, indeed, cut her up a little more. Gd Third Party and their witchc--shifting.]

[No time to pull an arrow. No time to even try to defend himself.

Damn it, he wasn't going to die here! Not when Noel is around.

Ted doesn't even try to think, cursing himself for this decision almost immediately as he pulls off his glove, spinning around and chanting quickly, releasing the spell almost immediately.]

Deadly Fingertips.

[Noel may notice the lack of one Third Party once the fight is done.]

[She doesn't even have time to react; she's incinerated in an instant. ... Ouch. ;_;

Of course, Noel doesn't see this just yet, as she's still focused on the final enemy who, taking the opportunity while Noel still has her barrier up, gets in and swings as hard as he can against it. This shatters her guard and leaves her defenseless for a few moments. Using this to his advantage the soldier kicks her down with surprising force, readying his weapon and preparing to end this once and for all. Noel looks up at him, showing no fear or anger or... any emotion, really.]

[BUT SUDDENLY!!!!1 A bolt of light erupts from her and slams into the man with exceeding force. This... hurts him. Badly. He's screaming in pain and stumbling back, but this doesn't deter Noel. Nope. She gets right back up, giving the guy another round of Chain Revolver ~~the one that entails glowing black and... combos, yes ifailatdescriptions~~, ending with--]

[NEMESIS STABILIZER!!!!! (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=riEycJWXRZQ) aka one of her distortions.

... Yeah. He ends up flying back and onto the ground in a bloody heap. O-kay, then. Noel's just gonna... stand there now, saying nothing and not moving an inch.]

[... Ted stares at that corpse for a moment, looking away almost immediately in disgust. Damn, he didn't expect Noel to actually be that... thorough.

He doesn't say anything for the moment, his stomach queasy with the sight, as well as the thought that he was careless enough that he had to use the rune, albeit at it's weakest level, just to finish an enemy off. On top of that, Noel...

He doesn't even realize that he himself might look like a bloody mess at the moment, bleeding at the side of his face due to the deep cut on his cheek and a bit of the hit on the head. The atmosphere pretty much reeked of what he had been trying to avoid this whole time.

Death.

He decided not to think about it too much. Not to think of the fact that the souls of these, particularly the one he attacked, were now part of the rune, although as supplements rather than actual power. Damn it.]

[She stands there quietly for a few more moments before dropping to her knees, shuddering.]

... Huh? [And now she's looking around, looking pretty... confused. As if she wasn't aware she was just in an epic fight. Ahaha. Haha.

... Ha.]

[... That was a strange reaction.]

You okay there?

... Ted?

[Oh. Hello, dead/unconcious Third Party member near Ted.]

D-Did we just...?

... [He doesn't answer that, standing up instead of trying to wipe the blood from his face, wincing a bit at the fact that it definitely hurt, and some of the blood that crusted was opening a bit.]

Are you injured?
