destinystrings | And if I cannot do it on my own...[OPEN]

Who: Yukiko and anyone in the area
Where: Virgo Ward
Summary: Scorpions running around the city and one girl needs to get back into the swing of things. Might be stupid of her to face these things alone.
Warnings: Scorpions and fire. LOTS OF FIRE. /Beavis laugh

When she heard the post made earlier, Yukiko was heading back to her apartment from her job. Monsters attacking the city? This didn't sound good at all. While she was a fighter, she wasn't one to go looking for a battle so the best thing to do was to head back quickly as she could. If anyone needed help along the way, she and Amaterasu would put them first.

Too bad those critters had other plans: like try to attack the young woman from behind.

It was only by a split second but Yukiko jumped out of the way, tumbling into a wall. Without a second thought, she slipped on her TV World glasses and flipped open her fan.

"You're not getting away so easily...! Come forth!"

With a flash, Amaterasu appeared before the girl and sent out a good dosage of flames at the scorpions. But this was odd...why did she feel weaker from the last time she summoned her persona?

"Why leave? My new friend hasn't had a chance to say hi yet..."

The bluish energy rose from the ground forming a figure behind him.

"If I can't make you come to my apartment, I guess I'll just have to take you both by force!"

Wow, no. Minako didn't even want to think about all the things wrong with that last sentence. But the Persona was new...

"When a lady says no, it means no." She raised the Evoker again, but didn't fire, although mentally she'd already switched to Orpheus. If they could get away from this without fighting it would be better for everyone.

Uh oh, force meant a fight. It took everything Yukiko had mentally to keep Amaterasu in check because she did not want this creeper touching her human. It would be worse with dear old Dad if he were here.

"You should respect what we want. A woman doesn't want to be forced in any type of situation like that."

[Also if I could have two number groups: one that is 1 from 1-2 for a 50% chance, and the other 4 numbers from 1-10 for a 40% chance.]

The figure above him handed out a cigar to Eikichi who took it, the Persona lighting it up with a flick of his thumb. He let out a puff of smoke before speaking, the light wispy strings turning into skulls before disappearing.

"Babe, you have no idea what women want. I do. And they all want Michel. I can't blame them really, considering who he is."

My gods.

Orpheus was just as pissed off, but he was content to wait for Minako's instruction. She knew how to handle herself in a crisis. And right now...

"Whether that's the case or not-" it was not. "This isn't the time. People are being hurt by these monsters and we have to do something to stop them. You can see that too, right, Michel-kun?"

Stalling. But if she could stall enough, some scorpions could appear, and give her the opening she needed.

"She's right. There's people in the city that need help and that should be our priority above all else. Some of them are children after all and don't know any better."

She'll be helping you on the stalling bit...hope you know what you're doing.

[Status Effect Results: Minako: 2(1) - No Hit | 8(1,2,3,4) - No Hit
Yukiko: 2(2) - Hit (YUKIKO will now swear uncontrollably for the next 10 minutes) | 6(2,4,10,3) - No Hit]

"Children? CHILDREN?!" That seemed to have hit a sore spot and for a second he looked like he was about to cry before pushing the nearby wall. "Do you even know what my team went through? What it's liked to be part of a cosmic farce between good and evil? That the past ten year's worth of memories are going to be erased as soon as I return and that I'll forget everyone I know? Return to being a child and never known Tatsuya, Jun, Lisa, even big Sis I..."

The emotional outpour was even worse in this form. He took his cigar and squished it.

"How dare you make me think about that shit! You two bitches deserve a lesson. Baron Samedi? Debauchery."

The dark Persona advanced, eyes glowing, unleashing the mutation attack at them.

[(40% chance of inflicting Charm, Fear, Confusion on all enemies, and large amount of Dark Damage to all enemies (this is not like a Mudoon spell, it just deals dark damage). Targets also all find themselves with a cigar in their mouths and a 50% chance of uncontrolled swearing for the next ten minutes.) (Darkness damage is increased due to Mudo boost)]

The strength of the dark spell was higher than normal due to the Mudo boost, although thankfully it wasn't an instant KO spell, and a lit cigar appeared in their mouths, wither they wanted to or not. Thankfully the status effects hit neither of them...but Yukiko would find herself with a unusual potty mouth soon.

Eikichi stopped being angry to burst out laughing, uncaring that the dark spell was physically harming them.

It was definitely better than Mudo, but Minako flinched and tried not to cry out as the darkness enveloped her. Instinctively she fired the Evoker, and Orpheus raged to life, infuriated and ready to strike back. There was little he could do to protect Minako, but at least his Darkness resistance cut the power of Eikichi's assault.

The lyre strummed and a pillar of flames shot up beneath the enemy Persona. A Fire-Amped Agidyne. It was a logical move, considering her last encounter with Eikichi in the arena.

It was too bad his weaknesses had changed when the stakes were so much higher.

Edited (PAST TENSE WHY) 2012-10-25 02:25 (UTC)

Yukiko tried to shield herself as the darkness enveloped her as well and Amaterasu wasn't immune to the Darkness but tried her best to protect her human. When it settled, Yukiko found herself with a cigar in her mouth and it tasted flipping nasty but couldn't spit it out.

Then she realized something: this guy called both of them bitches didn't he? It wasn't her fault that all those terrible things occured! Hell, she didn't even know the guy and he started screeching about it?! It made her mad despite knowing that Scorpios were made worse due to whatever hit the city.

Right then, she stepped forward.

"You...dirty, stuck up, sadistic..."

Let's just say that whatever attack that was, it made her say this in one breath.

Right afterwards, she covered her mouth and went wide eyed: did THAT just come out of her mouth?! She looked at Minako with those eyes, mentally saying that they need to go RIGHT NOW.

The reasons just made Eikichi laugh even harder, as the fire spell reflected right back at Minako.

"You dumb broad! D'you seriously think that'd work against me this time?" He took a step and flipped the front part of the guitar case so it was pointing at them...as the top opened revealing the end of a machine gun. He fired a few warning shots, near their feet.

"Ha ha ha! YOU'LL BOTH BE DANCING before this night is done!"

Between the fire reflecting back (fortunately, Orpheus blocked the attack with no effort) and the bullets pinging off the cement at her feet, Minako had no problem interpreting Yukiko's unsaid suggestion even as she also agreed with most of what she actually did say.

But they needed to leave. Immediately. Fire wasn't working and she didn't have time to go the rounds and see what would - but they needed something to cover their backs. Orpheus vanished after shrugging off the flames and Lakshmi took his place.

"Run!" Minako called, taking off even as behind her, her Persona unleashed Bufudyne. She didn't wait to see its effect. She leapt over the corpse of a scorpion and ran, only glancing backwards to make sure Yukiko was following.

Yukiko nodded and proceeded to do so with Amaterasu following behind. This was getting extremely dangerous and the sooner they could get away from him, the better.

"I don't know what the fuck he did but it seriously pissed me off!"

Slapping hand over mouth now. Keeping quiet.
