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

[gigglesnortpriestess]

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?

Hey, look who else had been heading back from his own incredibly stressful job today, to head home and get a nice nap! Yosuke! Unfortunately for him, however, these scorpions had far different ideas in mind for how Yosuke should be spending his time off of work...

For every one scorpion swarming a typical innocent bystander, Yosuke was being swarmed with ten, and they were all terribly vicious and big for bugs. When he hears Yukiko's voice, he's stupidly grateful to have found another teammate on the streets fighting these things with him, because he's not sure if he could take all of these alone...

"Yukiko, over here!!" Yosuke shouts loudly as Susano-o sweeps away a whole hoard of scorpions with a strong gust of Magarula. "I could use some help! I have no idea where these things came from!!"

Minako has a whole host of concerns today, ranging from some of her senpai losing themselves to paranoia, to her brother staking out a crazy Velvet Attendant, to her friend being stalked by another crazy Visual Kei weirdo. But on top of that is that there are scorpions everywhere and being clear-headed and not especially attracted to them, she can't just leave the city to be overrun without helping.

A barrage of ice slams into the scorpions following Amaterasu's fire as a woman hovers over Minako, then disappears. Minako then runs closer to Yukiko.

"Are you all right?" The girl seems well able to handle her Persona, but it's polite to ask. Minako herself looks like a weird contrast of normal person and battle-hardened fighter, the regular street clothes not matching with the naginata she carries, or the Evoker holstered at her waist. There's also the SEES armband, for old times' sake.

"Comin' through!" is the only warning she gets before there's a thud that sends a bunch of the little scorpions flying. If she turns in the direction of the sounds, she will see a young angel wielding a club.

Yu, of course, was on help everyone possible mode as soon as the call came in after work. He was more concerned with getting home and making sure Nanako was well protected at the moment, but that didn't mean he wasn't going to stop for a friend in trouble.

A massive sparkling blast joined the flames, and whatever scorpions weren't burned were electrically fried by Izanagi as Yu casually strode up to stand beside Yukiko.

"Are you all right?"

"...Come, Shikome."

That was the only warning before an undead priestess came to life, menacing and rotting grin hidden well behind the veil as the Persona lifted a hand. Black, shadow-like hands came from the darkness, dragging and crushing the scorpions as they reached out and then disappeared into the very shadows they had come from. Most of those they touched found themselves lying there dead, even as the user of this Yomotsu Shikome walked forward.

"I would be a little more careful if I were you." She smiled faintly, undaunted even though she knew her Persona's weakness well. "There is safety in numbers, after all..."
