[OPEN][TAURUS EVENT] DAICHI'S SUPER AMAZING FIRE TRUCK ADVENTURE
Who: Daichi Shijima, Yosuke Hanamura [OU], Yosuke Hanamura [AU], Eikichi Mishina, Junpei Iori, Miyabi Hanakouji, Rise Kujikawa, Sasha Fyer, Elaine Marley, and everyone else their merry band of vigilantes is bound to run into
Where: All around the city. On a Firetruck. April 26th, 13th Hour
Summary: In light of everyone going crazy in the 13th Hour, a few of your resident sidekicks have come up with a brilliant plan; hijack a fire truck, and use mobility and access to the fire hydrants to douse the enemies with super-effective watery attacks. Be the Heroes. Save the City.
Warnings: Remember, anyone actually coming along on the firetruck adventure is gonna get slapped with some community service from the government. Also firehose water pressure, also crazy zodiac folks and monsters and Taurus Taurus Taurus.
It was while they were trekking through the city to track down Miyabi that Daichi and Eikichi had gotten an idea; the water attacks from Hades were particularly effective it seemed (enough to bust down the wall, at least), and some of their own elemental attacks had all been restricted. The city had plenty of fire hydrants all over, which means there was water easily accessible if they had the tools. Unfortunately, none of them had the tools, so someone proposed clearly the most elegant solution--
Steal a firetruck from the department in Leo! They'd be able to access the water and be mobile enough to help the whole city. Clearly it was a brilliant plan.
If you're sane, you might guess this is not the most brilliant, or-- sane solution, but under horrible decision-making influence from the Zodiac problems, they deemed this is a perfectly good solution. Any concerns about the exact, er-- legality of it were quickly stowed, because they were of course, trying to save the city. It was the whole reason they were here, after all! And even if it wasn't brilliant, it would turn out to be effective.
Conveniently, Daichi knew his way around the emergency dispatch, and knew where they kept the keys. They'd essentially snuck into the fire station-- most of the people were already out and dispatched anyway, as the situation had only gotten worse since this morning. With a bloated sense of bravery, recklessness and impulsiveness, Daichi had grabbed the keys and hopped into the driver's seat, the others either piling into the back of the truck or joining him in the front seat.
And thus they were off. To fight crime.
Or mutated bull monsters, that worked too.
(OOC: This log is basically gonna go down like a mingle post! Basically, everyone who's riding along on the actual firetruck will be driving around the city, stopping every now and then to fight monsters and help people and what have you, leaving plenty of a chance to encounter your character if you don't want to come for the ride. Make a thread in the log and one or more of the idiots on board will come tag you! We can keep it to one thread, we can have multiple threads, we can have two-person threads or threadjacks, go nuts! Keep it open or request specific characters if you want-- make sure to mention your preferences in the header!
For those that are joining the crusade after the gaggle of sidekicks break out, you can make a thread where your character gets recruited/volunteers to join the firetruck crew, or we can just handwave it if you want. Regardless, you're free to jump all around the post at your leisure as well!Just don't piss off the driver or the captain.)

Unfortunately, it is not the response Rock wanted or hoped for. Rock does try to defend himself - albeit in purely defensive manners. Trying to block the blows and dodge them where he can. He might not want to fight, but he knows better than to let himself get hurt.
"Gah! Blues, I don't want to fight you! Can't we just talk this out?!"
BEEP BEEP
Daichi knew Rock-- he knew Blues too, sort of. And what he could gather on a dime was that was his friend there, getting beaten on and threatened by a guy who would probably some sort of insane and really violent.
He'd called out to the others without a second thought, and stopped the truck with a screech. They'd hopped out, connected the house to the nearest hydrant-hole, and here Daichi was, standing next to the side of the truck, with the house out and pointed at Blues.
"Hey--! Back off, you son of a bitch!"
He turned it on and let the water jet stream fly straight for the offending robot.
no subject
More so with calling Blues a son of a bitch than the whole... Spraying him with a fire hose, which does knock the red armored robot away from Rock. But Daichi's shout did sort of give Blues a good enough of a warning so that, even though he was knocked away, he wasn't knocked clear off his feet.
Which means that, once Blues quickly figures out who is being a complete idiot, he's going to roll out of the way of the hose's line of fire and...
Go right for Daichi, aiming to try and grab the hose from the teenager and possibly crush the nozzle while he's at it.
no subject
...and there goes Blues. Crap. "Blues, no!" Rock charges after his brother to try and stop him, and will try and tackle him if he has to!
no subject
"Rock-- be careful!"
He wasn't running away of course; his brain didn't run all the way to pulling out his phone and using his own magic, and his brain may have been working faster than he was are of. Because the next moment, Agni appeared above him, casting Poisma on Blues-- and boy howdy did he hope it worked, because he wasn't going to risk any direct attacks with Rock on the warpath.
no subject
Especially since he isn't saying anything himself, even after Daichi got out of the way and he stopped rushing at the teen. But that's because Blues is just going to step to the side, not by a lot but just enough so that when Rock comes at him he's able to grab his brother by the back of the younger robot's shirt and...
Promptly use Rock's own momentum to fling him at Daichi.
Oh, and the Poisma probably hit but, well. Blues does have a perma-status effect what with his core, so who knows what the two combined is gonna do to him!
no subject
Kids these days...
Rock shouts some more, but nothing in the vein of actual words, just a general scream of 'AHH I'M BEING THROWN THROUGH THE AIR THIS IS NOT WHAT I PLANNED'.
Hopefully Daichi is light on his feet, or can handle a robot being thrown at him.
no subject
Daichi was probably fast enough to get out of the way, actually; but he's not quite used to fighting robots, and Rock looked pretty damn human, and was also his friend. So instead of doing the smart thing and getting out of the way, he braced himself for impact instead, ending with him lying flat on the ground with a broken rib or two and Rock on top of him.
"Ow..."
Yeah hang on, he's gonna need a minute to make sure his head didn't snap off.
no subject
Blues might just be laughing once Daichi goes down from having a Rock thrown at him. Which might be really weird to see, since being hosed down earlier finally got Blues' ridiculous hair to actually go flat. So there is a slight... resemblance between Blues and the robot currently crushing Daichi.
"That's what you get for interrupting a family meeting, kid." Blues finally said, while he started to wring the water out of his scarf.
no subject
Whatever the case may be, Daichi's hurt, Blues did it, and it needs to be stopped from going further. Once he carefully removes himself from atop Daichi, Rock steps between the boy and Blues, and in a flash, dons his armor. "I don't want to fight you, Blues. I don't know what's gotten into you, and I was willing to listen and let you get whatever frustrations you had out, but attacking a human is going too far!"
And with that said, Rock charges forward to try and tackle Blues.
no subject
He collects most of his bearings quickly, thankfully-- enough to catch Blues' flatter hair, and Rock putting his armor on, and-- wait what did Blues say exactly--
"Wait-- you guys are related?!"
Er. That, probably wasn't the time for this.
no subject
You're really not helping in making it so Blues doesn't think you're an idiot. And thankfully Blues is a bit too focused on Rock to comment on Daichi's surprise about his relation to the blue robot trying to tackle him. Which Rock, that didn't work once what made you think it'd work again? Especially since Blues is going to try and intercept the tackle.
With a boot to Rock's head.
"I could've done a lot worse to him, you know." Is Blues' response to Rock's words, as he side steps after his kick and then adds louder, more for Daichi to hear than for any other reason. "Of course we are! Are you really that dense to not be able to tell?"
And maybe, just maybe, he mutters under his breath. "Even Noelle's wimpy little robot could see that."
no subject
The boot to the head knocks Rock backward, sending him for a tumble that he recovers from fairly well. He's having a bit of emotional whiplash - anger at Blues, and exasperation at Daichi's reaction.
"Yes, we are, but this isn't the time to worry about that, Mister Daichi!" He stands up, moving to keep himself between Daichi and Blues - if he can't actually lay a hand on the red robot, he'll be a wall. "But why, Blues? We're not supposed to hurt humans! Our programming isn't supposed to allow that!"
no subject
He could've yelled back at Blues, but he figured Rock is nicer and Rock is also probably more right-- they certainly didn't have time for it. "R-Right..."
(Though he did make a mental note to ask about the "what do you mean you're not supposed to be able to do what now" thing later.)
Nevertheless, at the moment, Daichi dug into his pocket and pulled out his cellphone, holding it up to summon Taown to his side, which dashed around Rock to swipe it's paws at Blues.
no subject
But not really one Blues can control, as his body has started to spark up. Only it seems, different? The electricity coming from him is a shade of purple. Looks Daichi isn't that much of an idiot, the Poisma from earlier actually helped.
"This is a waste of my time," he spits out those words as he winces, glaring at both Rock and Daichi.
no subject
no subject
"Taown--!" Daichi called to the demon and tapped his cellphone again, the beast bounding to a stop as it backed up closer towards its Tamer-- though it was clearly ready to pounce again if needed.
Come on Blues, please listen to Rock...
no subject
That's unlikely, even if it wasn't for the craziness going on right now.
"I'm fine," he growled, as Sniper Joe appeared once more and... Agi is cast once more, at Rock this time. And it's more to be a distraction since, even in his sparking state and feeling like he's going to collapse from lack of power at any moment now, he's going to try to get away.
And fast, and quite possibly by jumping over the fire truck that's in the way too. Stupid fire truck.
no subject
Rock recoils both in pain and from overheating - his systems register the spike of heat, momentarily making him lose focus. The distraction is successful, as he reaches for Blues and stumbles, clutching his head.
"Blues, wait a minute...!"
no subject
"Let it go-- I don't think he's gonna listen to us any time soon..."
no subject
He frowns, and his shoulders slump a bit, obviously distraught about failing to convince Blues to be cooperative once again. "That's not anything new, unfortunately," he answers, then looks up at Daichi. "I'm sorry that you got caught up in this, Mister Daichi."
no subject
He smiled softly in returned, setting a hand on Rock's shoulder for support. "Don't worry about it-- It's my pleasure to help out. Even, if we all just kind of made a mess."
Nevertheless, his smile never wavered as he gave a laugh. "Though next time, it might be nice to have a warning when your brother's partially homicidal."
no subject
As he sputters this out, he gestures about with his hands vaguely, as if he's shuffling around the different things he's explaining, until he peters out and his arms fall and shoulders slump.
"It just doesn't make sense..."
no subject
"Huh? Three Laws?" He feels like he's heard something like that before, but he can't quite remember. Though hey, at least he seems to have the confidence to ask instead of stumbling around feeling bad about it?
"Maybe it's a glitch because of the Zodiac stuff?" He offered, crossing his arms and looking like he was in thought a bit. "It has all sorts of weird effects on people-- if a robot can have a Persona, I don't see why this zodiac stuff couldn't affect them in a weird way too."
no subject
"Maybe..." Rock sighs, rubbing his head. "I hope that's the case, anyway, and this will go away soon, 'cause I doubt Blues would let me try to fix whatever's wrong..."
