Event Six.

Your first choice should always be to run Otherwise you had better hope You have silver bullets in a gun. | |
Welcome to Awash's sixth event log, everyone! Further information on this event can be found here at the OOC post. | |
he full moon hangs brightly over the Town, hovering so low that it almost feels as though you could reach out and touch it. It should be comforting.[Really, at first she seems to have it all under control--at first. But then she's being chased, bolting onwards, and Minato rushes over as quickly as he can, breath coming in ragged pants as he does (it's been a long, long night).]
Heads up!
[He doesn't know what she's doing, but she seems to have some sort of plan (or at least, he's hoping she does), so hoping that she's too focused on running away from the wolf to really focus on him, Minato plants his gun-shaped Evoker to his temple and pulls the trigger.
The summon only lasts a brief moment, but it's long enough for Minato to cast a support spell--so Summer's going to feel a great deal lighter and more agile after a Sukukaja spell, and much faster.
Hopefully that'll be enough to help her enact her plan.]

[ Aqua's in the middle of fighting a few of the wolves when Percy, of all people, rides in on... a huge dog? She's visibly stunned, but she at least recovers quickly enough to nod. Her keyblade remains in her hand. ]
Yes-- Thank you, Percy, I'm alright.
Yes-- Thank you, Percy, I'm alright.
[The hiding is noted right away as Roxas makes his way through town, looking more than a little irritated. The bite had hurt, but he was good at ignoring the pain since people needed help. At the moment it seems he's not very wolf-y. That'll be for the later nights.]
..... You know they'll sniff you out if they get this far...
[Might want to keep running.]

i. the rescue option.
Back off!ii. the cure option.
[ That's to the wolves, who are about to close in on someone. Aqua's been fighting for some time, and she thanks the fact that she's recovered well enough from the last quest to be able to fight decently enough. Keyblade in hand, she slams it into one of the wolves, then leaps forward, barrier surrounding her.
The wolves go flying, and soon enough, they're running off. Aqua lets out a breath, then turns and kneels down. ]
You haven't been bitten, have you?
[ It's not long before Aqua sets out into the woods to look for her part of the cure. While it's hard work, Aqua knows it must be done, and before long she stumbles upon a small, white plant. ]iii. the network option.
There you are, [ she says to herself, kneeling down. She reaches out, then quickly pulls her hand back as a patch of angry red hives appear on it. Aqua grits her teeth, then heals herself. ]
Well, no wonder you're called a grumpy snowdrop...
I'm searching for Tangle Hops. Has anyone found them?
I don't know either...
[But it's probably better to be safe than sorry, isn't it? What if he hurts someone else? What if he--
Keith takes a breath and looks back to Hunk.]
I can't just stay here! When I could be a threat to everyone... to you!
[You're his friend, Hunk!]

[ Tenn looks extremely startled. It isn't more than a couple seconds before the expression is replaced with a frown, lips pressed together as he looks up at Crowley -- and then up a little further, because Crowley is a good bit taller. ]
I'm fine. [ Which is true, since now that Crowley has so efficiently completely incapacitated the wolf, there isn't much in the way of a threat. Well, not from the wolf, at least, which is all Tenn is concerned with. ]
... Thank you. [ It's very polite, really, and a little calmer than you might expect from someone who nearly got disemboweled by a wolf, but, well, there's no point in panicking. ]
Do you have the resources to take care of that? [ Tenn makes a small, casual gesture to the wound Crowley suffered when he put himself between Tenn and the wolf. Tenn doesn't know how bad it is, since Crowley seems awfully put together about it, but. ]

Shit — !
[You know what happens when you're flying along at a regular rate of speed commensurate with your mass and then all of a sudden something happens to render you a whole hell of a lot lighter right in the middle of it? Yeah, that's definitely something that'll throw off your balance and reflexes, as Summer learns firsthand as all of a sudden she wobbles and nearly tumbles head over heels from the sudden jolt in her rate of speed.
Fortunately, though, she's adaptable in a pinch, and quickly gets the hang of this newfound boon to her existing abilities, and the wheels are already turning in her head as she looks around for the source of the assistance and her sights land on Minato.]
Hey!
[The trick is, to get her message across to him without luring the wolves over to where he is.
Fortunately, he's seen her throw sound around before, so she hurls a burst at him before zipping the other way, and as she leads the pursuing wolf off for another circuit of chase, her voice seems to burst into being over in the air near Minato's ear.]
Wouldn't happen to have some kind of barrier spell up your sleeve, would you?

[ Going out at night is awfully treacherous, so Tenn, who has all the fighting skill of a newborn kitten, has been doing his best to avoid it. Going out in the daytime seems considerably safer, so that's when he makes his way out to explore, to gather what resources he can.
He's a little startled when he's spoken to, but he puts his foot back down where it had been previously, erring on the side of caution. He shouldn't immediately assume that this person is crazy, probably. ]
What are you looking for?
[ Tenn glances down at the forest floor where he'd been about to step, but he doesn't see anything particularly riveting. ]

[Aqua won't be fighting alone at least. Roxas was right there with here to defend against the wolves, though unlike the older woman, he was a far more close combat. Meaning by the time the wolves run off...
Roxas was breathing hard, healing his wound, pant leg somewhat shredded.]
I'll be fine...

[ Oh, no.
Aqua rushes over and kneels down next to him. Gently, she places a hand on his shoulder, and adds her own healing magic. ]
Did it bite you, Roxas?

Yeah, but I'll be fine. Really.
[Werewolf legends are not something that this guy has grown up with.]
It's just a bite.
[Werewolf legends are not something that this guy has grown up with.]
It's just a bite.
[ She's relieved, at least. But there's an inexplicable sense of dread when she looks at the bite. ]
Can you stand?
Can you stand?
Yusuke-kun!
[ Maya goes from looking slightly tired and also slightly manic to beaming. ]
Fancy seeing you here!

[ that’s a question that dextera doesn’t want to answer. he likes to clean up with water, making sure that his face and skin are all clear of anything that his purification might have missed—though it’s really more likely to be the other way around, the feeling of trying is more than the results—but an actual bath?
a while. ]
…
[ he wiggles his hand, not at all a sign. the last time he took a bath was [REDACTED] and that should be okay. ]

[He tries it and finds that other than being sore, he can stand just fine. Even if where the bite happened there's a strange warm feeling.]
Yeah... Aqua, what were those things?
Yeah... Aqua, what were those things?
Oh! Per-- cy?!
[ wait what is that giant dog
uh
Hold on, she's processing. ]

Wolves. But they hardly seem like normal wolves.
[DEXTERA... BUDDY... more than just staying clean, aren't they a point of relaxation? Anyway, Guren is definitely making a face.]
You're kidding. You seriously haven't...?
[SINCE WHEN... He's been wanting to smooch this nasty boy, he can't believe.] Alright, change of plans. You're taking a bath while I stand guard.

They looked like they'd fit into Halloween Town.
Halloween Town? Is that a world you've visited?
[He nods at that, glancing around to see if more of those things would attack.]
Jack Skellington is the Pumpkin King there, and everything is dead or undead.

[ Not only is that a familiar man, but that's also a familiar goose?
Actually, it's kind of hard to tell from this angle when Lupin's salivating over it, but this one looks a little squintier (or maybe it's just pissed off), so it's probably-- ]
Baofu!!
[ she comes running up to scoop up the hissing monstrosity (who, understandably, lovingly tries to bite her, so it instead gets bundled under her arm like a football). ]
Lupin, I-- I get that we all get that craving for meat every now and then, but you really had it in for the geese that much??
[ She knows that's not it. But she doesn't really want it to be something else. ]

I see... It definitely sounds interesting. Did you enjoy it?
