Re: Looking for Meatbuns

[Terumi]

(OOT: Seems legit to me. As I will be joining as Rachel as well, it will become very full in here...)

"OH! Oh.... so one shitty side-character after another is joining in now, eh? STOP SHITTIN' ME!"
They did it. They totally managed to do one of the things that are taboo to do. Pissing the green serpent off. As he was enjoying his time with Ragna, a free kill jumped right into the frenzy confrontation. But with the appearance of Torakaka, the suicidal girl seemed out of reach. Damn! And now his little arch-enemy thought about going all out.
"Well, only more bystanders anyway! The instant the cat moves her tail, the little girl is dead. And so it is, when it even dares to move a finger as well! HYAHA! So... we will be having a little more fun?"
Terumi's average length of monologue was not met at that time. That was because he couldn't. A sign that he took the situation as serious as Ragna, which was dangerous.
"Restriction 666 released, Dimensional Interference Field Deployed! Code S.O.L., BlazBlue, Activate!"

A nightmarish green aura surrounded the antagonist almost instantly as his eyes glowed poisonous yellow. He readied himself for the first impact. How was Ragna not supposed to use the adventage of only a short delay between activations? That was the straightforward reckless beast he was. In fact, Terumi wouldn't be able to block the first charge entirely. A full block would mean losing an arm or two. Backing off while holding up a slight defense would cost him only a bit of flesh...
"I make you lose this Rock-Paper-Carnage Scissors!"

[Hakumen]

"Prepare yourself Terumi, the end is upon you! Empty Air Formation: Hurricane(Kokujin:Shippu)!" The cretin Terumi dared to activate his power? Then he would be slain without mercy, Hakumen's movements were fast even for him normally; without another moment of waiting the leader of the six heroes raised Ookami high as it lit with the great energy charging within the powerful Susano'o Unit flared through the Nox Nyctores. It was without a doubt a very powerful spectacle to see; but the silver knight knew better than to let it overpower him; he kept the focus on the creature that dared to threaten the lives of innocents nearby his person. He was doomed the moment he had made a move against the Beast in truth.

The attack came without warrant, the energy wave being whipped down over the hat wearing fiend's name; with the whorling splash of wind and energy coming down in an instant; straight from an overhead slice he brought it down upon Terumi's direction. While backcharging the release of his true power; there was no way that he could contend with the Azure Grimoire without the true force of the Susano'o Unit.

[Kageo-kaka]

The kaka's body flaired to life, as the blast of wind and sheer force from the silver knight's move had blown him back in place. The zone was now wrapped in battle, the worst fear of the kaka had come upon him and as his eyes had captured the images of both a girl he didn't know (Caelica) and his elder, Torakaka an urge to protect had erupted. But what was he to do? He did not hesitate and held his power instilled in him, burning with a fury of release as it were something that it seemed to be greater than himself. He silenced the confusion of his mind and went on the defense, raising the weapon infront of him as two wings of Caeruleus energy formed and folded down; the mode of Artifice Defense Core System was presently active.

Orders may have been orders, but survival was the highest priority as it seemed. His body demanded an action and quick. "I'm gonna protect what I'm gonna protect." he wouldn't engage Hakumen, it was clear that all direction pointed that Terumi would destroy anyone involved in this battle, he looked briefly to Majamu and then back to the fight, putting his best foot forward and preparing to act and dash...he was a trigger being pushed slowly; as soon as it called for the move...he was going to blaze...fast and hard. He wouldn't let anyone get hurt that he ared about; even defying his own ability to stay functional.

[Majamu]

Majamu was a bit off guard as a result of all those unknown persons converging in this place. Hakumen's manner of completely ignoring her didn't help about her mood. Terumi's activated Azure Grimoire alone was of far enough importance to keep the white knight's attention, making the facts completely understandable. Though, it wasn't like the samurai to stand by being completely ignored. Especially when a mission was involved in the question. As she thought, new orders from Kokonoe came up in Maju's mechanical inner-ear, and those were pretty simple: taking Terumi on (preferably out). In complete obedience to Kokonoe, she had her move decided. Putting her now-secondary objective on the line, the female agent built up her fighting intent, and flared through the crowd: not pushed back a single bit by Hakumen's Shippu wave attack, she instead followed the trail of energy, almost sliding on the ground to try and kick Terumi off his feet. Though, upon closing in, she already felt the strain of the nightmarish red aura. One more reason to do it fast!
She was there before Ragna, before Hakumen, charging in the danger, like back then when she fought alongside Jubei against Relius. That one time, it had ended up with Hazama and some cronies interfering... something that enraged her, and it was time for her part of the payback.

[Rachel Alucard]

Rachel Alucard was closing in to the battle scene, that was occuring fiercely between an overwhelming party of unnatural cooperatives and a single man known as Hazama. Yet the vampire lady didn't slow down to approach. Even with those many fighters the chances were dim. And as the amount of involved beings increased so did the chaos. Basically it was hard not to hit a charging ally, which gave the green haired serpent an adventage that could cost ones life when ignored.
//So many people on a rampage... this starts getting out of hand...//
The upcoming actions had to be chosen wisely. Otherwise a great number of people could lose their lives. Ragna was in great danger as he was the closest to his rival, with that the chances of getting hit unintentionally were the highest.
"I fear, I need to prevent some peasants from doing anything foolish. There is one man I see fit for this job..."
Other than that, most of the other people she could call upon were busy. Tsutomu was also one of the best suited. His brute strength was the real deal...

As Rachel jumped over the last roofs down into the street, where the fight took place, a massive rain of lightning poles found their way to somehow seperate the active fighting party from those being passive or willing to join in but are still too far away to do so.
"Tsutomu, quick. Come forth and calm down those hotblooded animals!"
A dimensional gate just opened in front of the lightning poles. A risky move from the vampire lady as it took her concentration and even if it was only brief seconds, she was without a cover...

[Tsutomu]

Tsutomu emerged from the void Rachel had just opened, taking place in front of her to parry any attack that could've tried to harm his savior. His impressive frame towered over every person here except Hakumen. Not even turning to Rachel (she knows that he could only talk to her anyway), he told her:

"Your wish is my command, milady. Please stand behind and cover your ears milady. This will not be a pleasant sound you would be hearing..." This said, he walked a step away from Rachel, and planted the big concrete slab that he called his weapon into the ground with a warcry, causing a relatively small and harmless but noisy explosion in front of him. At least it would draw the attention to him, and with this display of false power, he was sure that he seemed superior enough to calm the animals (as Rachel called them) down.

I haven't gotten into a fight for quite a long time... what a drag. This is not a place to fight in. When he was sure he had everyone's attention, he spoke loud: "This is just a glimpse of my power! Stop right there, or Lady Rachel's power shall have me stomp you."

[Noel Vermillion]

As always, Noel was not listened to. She noticed Rachel's poles falling from the sky and had instinctively come to where Ragna was, which was to say, the fighting scene. Just at the moment I decided to look for Makoto... Her impulses had not served her this time, as now she really was in danger, even more to her allies' attacks than to Hazama's. Not knowing what to do, she got hesitant again, not daring to attack yet, while still looking at Terumi, she took one step towards the figure that was the most likely to protect her, the newly arrived vampire... or at least she thought she would, but Rachel had called one of her servants that stood before her like a bodyguard, and clearly showed off, so the blonde girl stepped aside to avoid catching any unwanted attention.

[Ragna the Bloodedge]

Glaring daggers at his opponent, the Grim Reaper forced himself to remain mindful of the masked bitch also gunning for Terumi's head. The last thing Ragna needed was taking a stray shot from the Ookami. Gripping the Bloodscythe with both hands, Ragna began channeling his own supernatural abilities along it's length as the weapon started to shift and transform. As the metal blade slid back, a flaring crimson blade of seithr roared to life in its' place to finally give evidence to the weapon's name and his own title as the Reaper. The black and red shroud covering his own body soon spread to his weapon as the Azure's power stabilized in his body, augmenting all of his abilities to massive new levels. As Hakumen's blade came bearing down, Ragna made his move. Darting in with the scythe poised at his hip, Ragna intended to use Haku's energy wave as cover for his own attack, a horizontal sweep with his blade to bisect the fiend at the waist. If he could even manage a glancing blow, utilizing the fierce power of the Azure he cold essentially gut the knife user and press the attack even further to unleash the be all end all; The Black Onslaught.

[Terumi]

That was a surprisable amount of attacks flying Hazama's way. More and more contestants came into the middle of this fight as if it was a tournament... or more like a duck hunt. Everything was focusing the knife wielding villian, everyone a powerful and skillful fighter on their own.
"I thought this game included one-v-ones only!"
A bluffing taunt, but even someone like Terumi knew he wasn't able to lose his cool for only a split second.

Split seconds... the unbearable tension that built up over the last few minutes, it should be decided in the next few split seconds! Facing Hakumens devastating energy wave, together with some jump-in imbeciles, even the vampire made her appearance. Hazama's eyes widened. For the next moment the battle flield must've been shrouded in a time-consuming unspeakable phenomenon, as it appeared that everything went on in slow-motion. The swift greenhair charged forward, directly into the upcoming attacks, just as Rachel found her way down to the ground. The lightning poles were already falling down like a judge's hammer...
Suddenly, a young and foolish girl came his way almost jumping directly into Hakumen's attack to get herself into a surprising position. Not for Hazama. He jumped into midair as he intended to avoid the silver knight's attack like this from the beginning. The leg-sweep was therefore rendered useless. A sudden shot flew out of his sleeve, it was an Ouroboros-chain. Anchoring himself towards a further distance in the direction from were Hakumen's attack came flying, he saw himself confronted with an even bigger thread: Ragna the Bloodedge decided to play all-in. As he was already winding into the upcoming attack, there was less space of dodging. Good thing for the reckless villian to have another of these chains as he threw it right into a slightly different direction the same instant, just making it in time winding himself out of the danger.
Reeking havoc was a nice thing, but it wasn't his actual intention in this whole mess. As he had used used another chain to dart further away... right between the main actors of this stage, towards the red-eyed vampire.


...well yes, that was what would made his day. Having this inner pleasure of a not working plan... practial work was such a pain in the ass. That's why theory is more interesting.
"Well, time's up."
And with a backjump he did what everyone thought he could apparently do best: The uncanny ability of avoiding trouble, turning everything into a boring scenario, where the protagonists were screaming "Dammit! So close!"

Thus back to the batcave or more like the NOL HQ. Evil plans had to be forged.

(Exit ----------------->)

[Hakumen]

The Silver knight was troubled by the sudden factor with which Terumi's power had jumped, empowered by the Azure, the fiend managed to escape him once again. He cursed softly and looked briefly to the Grim Reaper, then to Rachel; had so many others who wished for Terumi's blood come to this same site so quickly? His senses were sharp as always, but the capacity for sensing so many others active had been preoccupied by his assault on Terumi. Even though it failed he wasn't going to stop here. "Hmph...to think that you escaped again, well that has nothing to do with it Terumi, you're life is over." he said with a stubborn turn of his attack; he turned to continue his hunt for the dastard who had once more escaped his clutches. "..." with nothing left to say, he turned to leave and headed off.

[Kageo-kaka]

The kaka's body was charged full of turbulent forces, his body had been prepped for action and the enemy had left...his last mission objective seemed to spark a level of excitement in him that he hadn't felt before. He was not wanting of the chance to pass...suddenly he wished to follow the orders; even with the orders streaming high off in his mind. He decided to make the first move. "Engaging subject, Hakumen...Artifice Core System conditions optimal, Seithr overcharge engaged...Seithr resonance engaged, Idea Engine engaged!" his body's swift move came with a single instant of what appeared to be halted time, as the trails of red seithr bled from his compounded aura; the awakened Kagennotsuki struck with tremendous force as he raced around Hakumen and paused for a moment.

Acknowledging the knight's strength with a single stare before exploding forward with the same momentum, from his left the kaka's sweeping blade was but a heckling blur and to any lesser opponent the blade would have finished its target. But with a simple practiced hand, the silver knight caught the kaka's powerful attack and met him with a sightless glare. "I warn you kaka, this action will earn you only a crushing defeat. the words came without hesitation even if he was surprised by the force of the blow, his blade Ookami crying out for the blood of the kaka suddenly, reacting to the intense seithr aura and the strange syncronization it felt with the kaka's body (via the idea engine) it seemed to recognize something within his new opponent's body. "The Grimalkin sends a paltry kitten to bring me back to her, how pitiful she will find her actions a failure."

[Majamu]

Majamu didn't even see the time pass as Terumi just had flown away using his chains. God dammit! He's too fast. Though, there was no time to rest, not yet. It was time to engage Hakumen, who did just take Sector Seven a bit too lightly for her taste...
"Hakumen... This is not just a paltry kitten Kokonoe has sent to you. WE are your opponents!", she shouted as she made a big gesture with her cherished Rengoku. A blink of an eye later, she was close to Hakumen, having used her reactors to rush in again for a horizontal slash at his legs. Going all-out was what she was the best at: even against all odds, it was best to always attack, either to have one chance to show what you got, or to cut all attempts at retreating from the enemy...
I've got to bring him to the Professor... no matter what.

[Rachel Alucard]

"..."
Rachel stood there in silence. The situation turned swiftly after Terumi took his leave so suddenly. Hakumen wanted to chase the green haired snake, but was instantly cut off his pursuit by two underdogs of Kokonoe. The vampire couldn't care less. With an absent-minded stare she looked up into the sky. The lightning poles disappeared just as fast as they had been arranged. The place was still crowded with people. Rachel hated it. It was the reason why they weren't able to capture Terumi again. On the other hand, Rachel as well was too late to be considered one of the contestants that were just too much for the snake to gamble.
"Tsutomu. We are already finished here. Seeing you so energetic, it pains me to just sent you back again. You must have been full of joy for an upcoming barbaric brawl. The sight of guts and blood... seems like you need to wait for another chance to use that strength of yours. You may be satisfied with a little free time? There is not much to do for now..."
How unusually kind to give her servants a day off. Rachel remained silent after suggesting the unbelievable. Her bad mood was hidden well behind a neutral face. Observing the road with the many people all over the place - as she didn't quite adapt to all the free time, yet - the vampire lady waited a bit longer to see what would accur in the next few moments.

[Tsutomu]

Tsutomu was standing before Rachel, his adrenaline had pumped him with Terumi jumping over all these people in Rachel's direction, but he went away instead of trying to confront him. That was a relief for Tsutomu, because even if he could boast more than enough power to fight decently, fights like these weren't a thing he enjoyed that much.

Rachel told him their job was over, but considering the order she gave him, to calm the others, and the Sector Seven agents picking a fight with Hakumen, Tsutomu felt like it was not really over yet. "Free time?, he smirked at the mention. He had more than enough free time lately. Milady, it looks like people are not calming down as you wished. May I teach them a lesson?" Pointing at the scene, Tsutomu waited for the vampire lady's approval to enter the fight should it arise.

[Rachel Alucard]

"Do as you please."
Was the only answer Rachel gave. She didn't care how the outcome of situation was. Wherever Hakumen deflected Kokonoe's henchmen or not, wherever Tsutomu interfered or not. It was actually more interesting to see what the slab-swinging meat-head would do if he had to decide on his own. Servants tend to start thinking independent when they got used to permanently following orders. The same could be said about soldiers. It was always the best solution to shut down their communication with HQ or disposing of their leader. Most would start panicking.
"Slab whoever you want, for whatever cause you see fit. Hitting that kaka and the girl or hitting Hakumen... or hitting all of them, I do not mind."
