Who: Pit. OPEN.
Where: Starting from the Libra apartments, but anywhere, really.
Summary: THIS. IS. WAR!!! Or: Pit goes clubbin'.
Warnings: Pit

Pit's pretty sure he doesn't have to go to work today.

Which means he's free to wear his tunic.

Which means he's free to go outside his apartment with a club and start clobbering some scorpions. Normally, this club wouldn't be his first choice; but he found out by accident that its strength had increased significantly, as had one of his claws. But claws aren't good against creepy crawly things on the ground, so club it is!

A bit unfortunate for the people who try to attack him, alas, though he tries to be generous with his ~~pixelated~~ shiny new persona, which, he has found, has a handy if not terribly accurate instant-KO skill.

But it's not terribly accurate.

Which means most zombies get clubbed.

"Right!" Rune called back to their support, eyeing the damage Pit was doing. Seriously, chicken wings, what the heck...? She switched both guns over to fire again, lighting the scorpions up as her persona drowned them.

"Pit, fall back!" she ordered. "We'll shoot and run, and get you healed up!"

"I'm fine!" he protests--but he has a feeling they aren't going to let him get away with that. So he reaches into his tunic, pulls out his small box o' powers, and presses a red shape.

SUDDENLY, GIANT DOME OF FIRE FROM NOWHERE.

Well, that was...wait, what?

"Uh...did that get them all?" Latooni asked, blinking. She had a feeling her Persona was supposed to be able to tell that, but the huge and sudden dome of fire made it hard to tell. "Are you both alright?"

Rune swore loudly and colorfully as the explosion went off, shielding her face as she stumbled back. Not cool, Pit; not cool at all! It was a moment before she trusted the fire to go down before she lowered her arms... and whirling a massive glare onto the little angel.

"Man, what the hell was that?!" she bellowed. "You could have gotten us killed!"

"It only hurts enemies!" he shouts back. "See?"

And indeed, the only scorpions that are in the area of the blast are ones who had just recently scurried in.

"Oh, it's like Cyflash. That's okay, then," Latooni said. Oh, wait, there were still more scorpions.

"Vasilisa!" she yelled, smashing a couple of them into the ground as the princess-y Persona crushed them under her heel with a Skull Cracker attack, revealing the bottom edge of a leg that was a lot more like a frog's than a woman's. Well, there were weird Personas out there.

"We should fall back to somewhere more defensible."

"I'm all for that, we're sitting ducks out in the open," Rune agreed, switching her guns back to normal fire, before shooting as quickly as she could pull the trigger, popping off scorpion after scorpion.

"Got any distractions in your pile of tricks, Pit?"

"I could throw another Explosive Flame, but I've only got two more of those left. It'd be a waste. I was hoping you two would've gotten the hint and bailed as soon as I threw it."

"Then why are we talking instead of running...?" Latooni asked, rhetorically. "The apartments are this way, I think!"

With that, she begins backpedaling and directing her Persona to smash more of the bugs. If nothing else, it tended to stun them.

"C'mon, chicken wings!" Rune shouted at Pit, reaching over and grabbing a fistful of feathers from said chicken wings as she tried to get him to retreat with them.

"Owowowowow!" he whines. But he's dragged away, anyway, even if he's in too much discomfort to ward the scorpions away with his persona.

This is like pulling his arm, only, like, a really thin arm!!!

Latooni, aside from finding this situation vaguely familiar somehow, leads the way, turning back occasionally to let Vasilisa cover the other two with curbstomps or fired icicles.

Not that she had any idea why it could shoot icicles, but when you have a weapon that works, worry about the current combat situation before questioning it.
