What: Closing Arena Ceremonies, Part 2
Where: Aries Arena & Televised
Summary: 1/24/10AC
Warnings: This could get serious...but who knows.

Finally it was time for the mayor, Kazuki Sakahagi, to speak up. Not even an thirty minutes left to the celebrations, but seeing him go appeared to be lighting up a spark in the citizens. It wasn't too hard to see why; his enthusiastic grin and way of walking could easily melt anyone's worry away.

He walked to the center stage as cheering broke out, two men in black and Junko Tanako behind him.

"Fleeing the scene of the battle? I'm disappointed; I thought you were better than that!"

Meetra's flight is interrupted halfway by the sudden feeling of weightlessness. For a brief moment, she hovers in place in mid-air before a burst of speed sends her catapulting back towards the 'sorcerer'.

"Don't underestimate her because of her looks!" Says the eight year old goddess. "This one's strong. I'm going to do a scan to see if she's weak to anything, but I doubt it."

Garvi is getting messed up by the prime version of her a bit later, see that thread.

Loken snarls, as the stadium chunks fly at them he cleaves through them with the sparking tungsten teeth of his chainsword. He tries to clear his bolter to get a clear shot at the magus, but the storm of debris is fouling his aim.


"Meetra, kill it, I've got no shot!"

[hinoto_npcs]

(ooc: all the copies are herself coming back in time to help cause chaos, but the her that is local to this period of time is around helping Spades~ And sorry Viridi, her equipped persona has no weaknesses.)

Hitsuji fires two bolts of technicolored magic at the fastly approaching Jedi, raising herself up in the air to leave the path of travel. More rubble is sent flying at her, though none find their way towards Viridi-- the 'sorceress' seems as though she won't attack someone that doesn't come at her with aggression first. Another shot of magic is aimed for Lokens feet, hoping to smash the ground below him and send the heavy man stumbling.

There was something she hadn't felt before here. Some kind of...warping? Unlike the telekinesis, the feeling was unfamiliar, but it clearly had something to do with this agent's multiple copies.

She'd think about it when she wasn't flying through the air trying to intercept and cut the woman down. Meetra tossed a split-second thought of thanks at Viridi in between cutting through Hitsuji's projectiles and bulling her way closer. If she could just get her within her saber's reach...

[forceofnature]

((Viridi is Supporting a la Fuuka; she's not physically here.))

"Hm."

Viridi's Weakness Scan comes up blank, as she had assumed.

"Nope. Tough luck. Looks like you'll just have to take her down the old-fashioned way. I'll be here if you need healing or anything."

[greyerrant]

Loken stumbles, off balance as his chainsword chews across the arena floor as he clumsily flails with it, obviously wrong-footed by the magic blast.

"This isn't looking good."

He growls, before trying to get himself properly balanced again.

[hinoto_npcs]

Hitsuji reaches one hand out, stopping Meetra so close that her saber just barely can't reach the young girl in the express interest of being an annoying asshole, and promptly flicks her wrist to send her smashing down towards where Loken is to cause a collision.

[echo_of_a_jedi]

Meetra grunts as she's tossed through the air, using the wings Viridi gave her to inexpertly twist off course and avoid Garviel, though she still smashes into the ground hard.

She stands up, shaking herself off and glaring. "Alright, Garviel, get ready. PERSONA!"

Bowing her head and focusing, Meetra calls up Vima Sunrider, the image of the Jedi striking the same meditative pose. Meetra and Garviel would both feel invigorated, faster, and stronger through the power of the legendary Jedi's Battle Meditation, while the copy of Hitsuji before them would feel likewise disoriented and weakened.

"Pin her down, Cerberus. It's time for round three!" she shouts, and launches herself upward again.

[forceofnature]

"Remember - 5 minutes, Meetra! You have four minutes left. Each time it gets around to your turn again, it will be another minute gone! Use it to your advantage!"

A pause.

"I mean, um, I'm keeping track of the actual time passing with a... stopwatch. You just... focus on fighting."

Behind Meetra and Cerberus, the projected image of a nymph appears; Melia glances around the battlefield with a wary expression before she raises her hands to the heavens as if to beseech a higher power for protection.

yess luck is on my side today (quick input even though it's Lokens turn)

[hinoto_npcs]

★ ???? (Restore 15% of total HP & SP every turn, with a 30% chance of any stat decreases casted on user becoming a stat increase with a 2 turn extended duration.)

What should have weakened the other girl seems to have invigorated her further, and a large malevolent smile crosses over her face.

[greyerrant]

Loken looks annoyed, but raises and fires his bolter, hammering shots to disrupt her concentration and suppress the girl more than kill her. He'll leave that to Meetra.

[hinoto_npcs]

She wouldn't be sticking around for much longer, but she couldn't resist fucking around with them with this new power-up.

Hitsuji dodges the shots and fires blasts of magic back in return, even more powerful than they'd been before. Eyes glowing brightly, she rips giant chunks of rock out of the ground, flinging them hard towards the fighters before her. She appears to be trying hard to suppress a laugh, positively delighted at how invigorated she felt.

[echo_of_a_jedi]

Meetra was powered up herself, focused on the fight, the Force flowing around her...and she recognized there was something wrong here. Her opponent was co-opting the power herself...and throwing much larger ordnance at her than before.

One of the chunks of debris hits her head-on, stunning her and knocking her from the air, finally, from accumulated damage. She hits the ground with a whumph and immediately tries to stand back up with what feels like a concussion and probably a broken left arm.

"Something's not right here...," she mumbles, hopefully loud enough. "Not connected, but a copy? We need to fall back..."
