Rednal Ak'ThiasThe Shade, as expected, was a monster. They pounded it, and pounded it, and still the creature attacked them, its light attacks ripping through the team and, in one instant, downing most of them. Indeed, once again the Shade's power had ripped at Rednal, the boy who simply refused to accept her words. Willpower shouldn't ever have been enough, not in the face of overwhelming power... and yet as the Shade screeched her anger at his words, Rednal's body twitched, and his gauntlets flashed brightly. The boy staggered to his feet again, blood dripping from his rapidly-closing wounds. By any reading of the odds, the boy should have been beaten already. He'd been pounded, blasted, subjected to the very personal hatred of the Shade's puppeteer, and twice been blasted senseless by the devastating power of light. Perhaps fate just had something different in mind for him, though, or perhaps it was merely chance playing some games. "...Minori. Finish her already, would you?" the boy grumbled.

Their combined attack wasn't enough to keep the Shade down and still was able to get back on it's feet. It was torn apart but still had the energy to attack them twice with the powerful light spell. The snowy haired girl felt powerless as she watched the majority of her friends fall one by one under the many talismans. Nix wasn't even sure how she was still standing after the barrage of spells but it was now down to Minori, Rednal, and herself. There was no time to try and bring back the others, plus she didn't have any spells to bring them back to begin with. So all the girl could do was keep on the offensive. So she forced herself back to her feet since the blow of the attacks knocked her down. "We can't lose.. Let's do what we can." The tarot card appeared only to be crushed in her hand, summoning her Persona to send a large bolt of lightening crashing towards the Shade once more. ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ♫ Quote: Zionga: (Target: Shade Minori) (Elec Boost) (Elec Amp) Anglachel the Elf Blade: Deals double damage against pure shadows and demons, but also if damage is reflected onto allies.

Amelia M. HeartillyYou would think that it was all over at this point, everyone ganging up onto the puppet to tear away the strings and put it out of its misery. But no, that was not the case, Amelia panting heavily and wiping at her mouth to whatever blood was leaking away from it. She was going out fast, she knew it, but to her dismay there was a scream that echoed throughout the area that snapped her attention to the other end of the strings. That scream...that voice! A look of fear went over Amelia's face and that was when the trees sparked and cracked intensely with electricity taking over them, the bolts going across the whole courtyard and nipping and slashing at their feet. From the violent, angry electricity so came a long black finger from the shadows of the trees. No, it was a claw! It was then that the moment the thing had spoke, the rapier falling to the ground as Amelia took shaky steps back with hands shaking with the horror of hearing her voice... her own voice simmering with hatred and promises of murder. The lightning continued to spark across them, the dark-haired girl covering her ears and lowering her head to try to mute out the voice but it was too much. "No!" she would cry out but the Shade, her shade, let out the most haunting thing that she has ever heard, letting out a loud and sadistic laugh with the lightning crackling once more and Amelia tightening her grip around her head and ears, her teeth and eyes clenched shut when the ear-piercing shriek erupted along with the explosion of power that thwarted the ground. Soon it was gone, but Amelia did not move. Her mind was a blur, she could not think clearly at this point. That came from inside me-- No! No, it couldn't have! It was just... A pain went across her head, a throbbing pain burning through before she opened her eyes, slowly, to look ahead. Then she saw her, the Shade of Minori, standing with a murderous glee as she raised both of her arms over her. Amelia's brows furrowed, anxiety coming over her the more she stared at the thing, but a heartbeat later all her eyes could see was just light... and all she could feel was pain sucking every last bit of energy she had left. Her will almost left her at that point, though... Because... Those strings. Those strings came from me... was I really controlling her? Did I give her that much pain? Am I responsible for those tears? Does she hate me? Does she, deep down inside...?! She felt herself weakening, her body giving in as she fell to the ashy, ruined ground, sight beginning to darken with the last thing she saw was the Shade in a disturbing glee for finally being free.

Minori Koroko  Attack after attack, fists, knees, kicks, blades...everything was a blur of hits, the team taking the window of opportunity the moment the Shade collapsed. Each blow was meant to end the fight there, to cut the puppet’s lifeline, to finally be able to get some help for the fallen comrades…and for a moment, the blond felt lighter, despite the pitiful scene in front of them, only to have the hope of the nightmare of watching her horrible self ending crashed to the ground. The scream that broke into the air then froze her to the core, her naginata stopping in mid-swing as green eyes turned over to the source of the yell. It hadn't come from the broken puppet...and it had been a voice that reminded her so much of her dear friend. They hadn't been wrong after all...but that didn't ease Minori at all. Electricity crackled dangerously, warning them of the fury that was boiling somewhere in the shadows; of the monster they had managed to anger when they took its little doll away from it. And that monster had Amelia’s face. Her stomach churned at the thought of having to confront her as well… the team was tired, and even if she didn’t want to accept it…this night, they didn’t have the enough force…or time to fight two Shades. The presence disappeared not long after though… not before promising death, and leaving with a threatening demonstration of strength that made the blond a bit nervous. “It’s…it’s gone…” Minori let out a shaky breath, only to have it sucked back into her lungs when she noticed her dark haired friend’s reaction. “Ame…?” Her voice came out almost in unison with the broken doll’s, chilling and disturbing her to no end… Am I… The worried words for her friend died in the girl’s throat, her attention taken completely by the enemy that wasn’t quite gone yet…that was even more dangerous at the moment.
There was something different about it now, she could see it the way it giggled and wept, how it seemed to go completely wild and insane, not pulled back by no one anymore. The Shade displayed the power of all that bottled up anger and sorrow in the form of another set of powerful attacks that knocked out almost all the remaining team. “No! Guys!” A gasp escaped her lips as Amelia, Faust, Karu and Teddie collapsed to the ground, only leaving Rednal, Nix and herself standing. Desperation and anger at herself began to boil inside the blond, determined green eyes turning over to the dancing puppet, her weapon ready to strike, even before Rednal mentioned the obvious. The attacks coming from the remaining team members did nothing to the monster…and that is when she understood. It was up to her. And she would do what was needed to be done.

 Shade Minori, the Dancing Puppet "...I'm just a puppet, after all..." SHADE BATTLE THEMEDown the members of the Investigation Team fell, like puppets with their strings being severed by an unforgiving blade; the irony might have tickled something devious and amusing inside of her if the Shade had any such inclination towards those...if it was even capable of being amused, of observing irony, of feeling anything other than the all-consuming sadness and hatred and fear that possessed it, comprised it, making it the pitiable existence that it was. Some of them fell and remained on the ground, bleeding from this wound or that while the sheer concussive power of her light spells had rendered them immobile; some endured through some device or another, or maybe luck alone. It didn't matter how they endured, however, as their blond mistress...the deadly creature that held such sway over whether or not they lived or died through the night remained standing not far away from them, the unnatural threads circling around it, in and out of its various wounds, a black swirl not unlike a sandstorm about its limbs and its torso giving it an added strength, lift, the ability to move about and stand on its own two feet. Even if it could not see them, it could sense them...could aim its powerful spells and its two arms directly at them and in a flash so bright it could blind them they would be fallen, beaten, and that alone should have been enough to strike a deep and incomparable fear inside of their chests, goosebumps along their skin, the hairs along the back of their neck raising in protest. Here was a being that existed to bring them torment and death, and such a being somehow could be pitied...could wear that wide smile with black streams of tears pouring from an obsidian mat where eyes should have been. It was a contradiction in and of itself...a being of ironies. Yet there could be no mistake of intentions as it waded back and forth, dipping to either side as it placed one foot in front of the other and began a slow march forward, its empty gaze no longer focused on the team as a whole...but on a single person, the blond bearer of her very own face, unmarred by the threads and the scars and with clear green eyes that could see the impending danger before her. From between her lips that mix of laughter and sobbing emerged again, teasing, arms raised to either side almost as if welcoming an embrace...and it lumbered even closer to Minori as her teammates struggled to fight on.
"Hey...hey...why do...why do you...fight? Why do I...is it...isn't it to be..." her voice echoed sadly in the moonlit night sky, growing ever-closer as its feet drew it step-by-step closer to the girl it resembled in such a spooky fashion...yet even as it began this slow, almost gentle approach towards its 'true' self the remarkable power that had swirled about it began to grow immense, wild, a light shimmering around the arms that wished to encircle her, "Hey...aren't they...don't you think...they're just...baggage? They're like...strings...tying you t-t-o...binding you...aren't you...aren't you scared...? Can't...don't you think...it would be...it would be better if...if...they DIED?!" It was almost the same feeling as a light being flicked on in a dark room, the flash about the Shade's arms just then...and in an instant there were eight circles whirring about each of her two limbs, blindingly fast, and pausing for just a moment, the attacks brightened to a fever pitch and erupted from two arms...smashing through the chests of both Nix and Rednal with a remorseless, ruthless sort of power. Each attack was relentless, a barrage of weakness-crushing blows that sapped their health and concussed their bodies, the sheer impact enough to knock the wind out of each and bring them to their knees! ...Only fortune, or perhaps their own great endurance kept them from falling, but each would find themselves on their last legs as the last of the assault's strikes went through them. And no sooner had each attack ripped through Minori's teammates than it began its slow, wavering approach towards her. Its arms were still shimmering with light and the power flowed from its core into its hands, but with each attack the black threads that circled around her seemed to flow a little more slowly, as if this shuddering, thundering assault were draining it bit-by-bit, though...when you saw the damage that each attack wrought, the potential casualties, how tremendously it weakened its foes...did it even matter? "I want...them to die...I...want...Ame-...to...I want...to be...free...free from...ev-ery-thing...and...can't we...can't...I...?! If I just...KILL THEM...can't I...finally...make my own...?! Hey...aren't you...listening...?! I said I want...to KILL THEM!"
Another flash of light about the arms, another eight circles...in a moment they erupted from her hands, weakness-seeking missiles that slammed into the fallen forms of their knocked out friends, smashing their bodies over and over with a pummeling force that might have crushed them if it had not been for their own resilient nature. Their personae and their strength kept them hanging on, but the thread was growing thin...the power of the Shade erupted and the strings about its body whirred ever-slower, the light growing on its arms again...and forward it walked, until it was barely an arm's length away from the true form of her...the blond with the clear, green eyes and the horrified expression of helplessness in the face of her friends' utter defeat. About its arms there was a flash, eight circles on each arm once more...but rather than aiming at her friends this time, those power-encrusted arms remained wide, narrowing slightly to reach out for the frail-looking form of the blond senior before her.
"I can...be free...you can...you just...won't you...please let me free...?" the words pleaded slowly from her lips, arms closing as it reached out for her with a stitch-tearing smile of sadness and anger, the black whir of threads about its body still flowing, ominously...dangerously... "Won't you...just die...and finally...be free?"Quote: Mikaboshi Star Assault - An assault of Mikaboshi Stars! All team members HP reduced to 1! (Or remain 0 if already knocked out!)

Rednal Ak'ThiasI am surrounded by- This was not the time for girly slaps! This was the time for unleashing every last bit of power in a bit to overwhelm the enemy! As the puppet lurched for Yami, Rednal sent a burst of willpower into the ring on his hand, crafting light around his body to force it to move. Kind of ironic, really. He was fighting a puppet... and now he was puppet-ing himself. Before the Shade could reach Minori, Rednal grabbed its hands tightly, and magical power erupted out of his body. This was probably going to hurt a lot in about two seconds, but... "Hey, witch. Here's a present for you!" An incredible burst of light and heat erupted out of his mouth from point-blank range, and trying to keep holding onto the Shade probably wasn't the best idea. Which was why Rednal had let go, allowing himself to go shooting backwards, straight into a cushion made of green light. "NOW'S A REALLY GOOD TIME, MINORI!" The bruised, bloody, broken, ninety-seven-percent-of-the-way-towards-totally-unconscious boy called out, just barely managing to hang in there. It was mostly determination that had gotten him this far; really, it wouldn't have been strange if he'd already been beaten. Still, powerful as the creature was, that much light and noise ought to disorient it for at least a moment, long enough for Minori to try and land a proper blow on it. Him? He didn't really have much juice left, and if his suspicions were right, then Minori needed to kill this thing. Like, now.

Nix barely caught what happened to herself and Rednal. Light hit her chest with such force, such power, it knocked all the wind from her body and left her in extreme pain. It was a miracle the girl was still conscious after all that, her body was screaming in pain but it was as if her mind wouldn't allow her to quit as she laid limp on the ground. The voices sounded muffled as she slowly started forcing herself in an upright position. Minori still could've needed help in some way and she couldn't assist if she was laying on the ground. Luckily it looked like Minori wasn't too badly hurt like the rest of them were and Rednal was strangely on the attack. So she summoned the glowing blue card to her hand to crush it in her hand. Her persona appeared behind her to restore a moderate amount of her energy, though she was still a far cry from being okay. The snowy haired girl was still tired and in pain from the attacks they all had to endure. Then she turned to look at Genji, realizing she was away from the injured boy after going to help the others in the group attack. 'Please.. let him still be alive..

Minori Koroko  “Stop it!” Minori watched as each of her teammates fell, listened to the giggles and sorrowful cries of the Shade, felt each consecutive attack thrown their way, even after they were down and beaten…and she couldn’t take it anymore. She was shaking, was it for fear or anger…the blond wasn’t even sure; perhaps it was just a combination of both and some other tangle of conflicting feelings, and her fingers instinctively curled around the seemingly hollow weapon, preparing herself to fight whatever was coming her way. The puppet’s words echoed inside of her mind, and despite the erratic steps coming her way, the blond couldn’t do more than to look in some kind of horrified shock at what the doll was saying. Being able to control her life, away from anybody telling her what to do, what to say, what to feel…it was true those kind of sentiments had crossed her mind more than once late at night when she could just let go of any conscience and forget about the shameful thoughts the next day…It was true she had wished more than once she could just break free of everything and start anew…To forget about Kazuma; about Motonari…about Duke… even about the whole supernatural powers and the fight against everything…It was true.
It was in that moment that the silver haired junior stood up once more, throwing out a powerful attack at the incoming Shade, only to see it washing over it as if nothing had happened…The same spell that just a few moments ago had managed to hurt it so much was having no effect this time. Yeah…she had felt the change in atmosphere back then…and she knew that it was up to her now…but it wasn’t until Rednal snapped those words at her that she reacted, green eyes turning dangerously over to the remaining member of the team standing, narrowing. “REDNAL! Just…just let me do this! I know what I have to do.” It was true she didn’t want anybody telling her what to do anymore… it was true she was going to start taking a grip over her life…it was true what the dancing puppet was saying…but…but she…
“I would never wish for my friends’ death. I wouldn’t rather be alone…” A step was taken forward then, determined green orbs returning over to her darker self. “The bonds I have with them…is what keeps me together! Even if I might think at times that there are strings pulling at me… Even if sometimes I feel I let them take the decisions for me, out of fear of making them myself… I don’t want to get rid of them! Because they pull me up when I fall…because I can count on them, I can trust them…and I know they can trust me…They make me stronger.” She was standing just in front of it now, almost as if she were in front of a mirror…a mirror that was showing her something she’d hate to become. Those stitched up arms were just barely out of reach, and that hollow, blackness that should be its eyes seemed to stare at her with a mixture of complete sorrow and fury…it surely would be a sight that would haunt her for some time. Another step was made towards the doll, the blond ignoring the slight scratch of knife like fingertips on soft skin, “But I will take my own path from now on. I will make my decisions and I won’t let anyone step over me. No one will call me a worthless puppet anymore… I WILL be free. But I don’t intend to die!” A blade pierced the tattered and stitched up chest of the creature then, the point of the spear ripping the doll’s back as the blond let out a shaky breath, feeling the tangled blond curls against her cheek…Hopefully, it will be the end of this nightmare.

 Shade Minori, the Dancing Puppet "...I'm just a puppet, after all..." SHADE BATTLE THEMEIt was so close, fingertips near enough to the blond girl before her, that wore her mirrored face, to touch her if it so chose...but a brush on the shoulder wasn't in its plans, the arms of the Shade looking to engulf her, to consume her and bring her within her own little protective circle...where no one could touch her, no one could control her, nobody could jerk her around and tell her where to walk or who to love or who had to die because she wasn't strong enough. With no bonds, there could be no pain...right? And perhaps to this particular shade, viewed through the eyes of the Investigation Team as a manifestation of the pain and anger of Minori Koroko...maybe through whatever viewpoint it could observe her (though it had no eyes), it was Minori herself who was the one in pain? Or perhaps it was a monster born from the worst of her, meant to close its arms around her and kill her so that it could be liberated from the image of hope that still lingered in the emerald eyes of her 'true' self, freed from the bonds of friendship that she would never release, and free from the heartache of manipulation...by the Mori, by her friends who clung too tightly. There was no way to know. And nobody would want to. The mind of a Shade was not thought, but instinct and raw, painful emotion given form...the worst of you, the thoughts you discarded as impossible for you to think even as you thought them...it was nothing but a miserable pile of emotions given life through some sick design and loosed upon the world to shine a light upon the very darkest bits of your subconscious. It was a reflection of who you feared you might become, even unconsciously...and if you looked upon the face of the real Minori, you could see that she understood it...that she knew what she was seeing even if she couldn't put it into words. How hard was it to face the things you didn't want to admit...and how much worse was it to come face to face with the things that you couldn't because they were too real, too painful? It was so easy to simply close your eyes and accept it, to allow cruel, welcoming arms to wrap you tightly and bring you near, and it was so much harder to stand before it and remain who you were, the person that you wanted to be. That in and of itself was the real challenge of the Shades...more than the fight, more than the desperate struggle to cling to life...it was the struggle to hold onto who you were.
It was a struggle for your very soul.
A hand on its arm couldn't stop the Shade's movements, not even with the firm grip that the silver-haired Junior had used to try and stop its embrace; an explosion of light meant nothing to the eyeless creature, the noise a cacophonous and highly audible roar...but the sound was insignificant to the desperate thing. For in its ears were screams, the cries of those she had cared for calling out to her, binding them and tugging on her heartstrings, and the chilling words of a man who had nearly manipulated her into selling her life away to protect a man she loved. The resentment towards that man, towards the man she loved for putting her in that position and hurting her, they sounded louder than the most explosive percussion. Away the nuclear power washed, and with a wave of its arm far more powerful than the slight, wobbling frame of the Shade might have suggested it possessed it aided the explosion in tossing Rednal violently to the side. It's lip-splitting grin dimmed only slightly, its ears hearing the words of the girl in front of her only vaguely...it was too far gone for reason, too mad to ever hope to be turned away by mere words. Forward it lurched and its arms began to encircle the girl, its black threads humming lowly, its body shifting to one side as it leaned in towards the girl, bright lights surrounding either arm ready to deliver her unto the oblivion that she so desperately must have wanted...that she knew Minori wanted because she wanted to be free, too, didn't she? How could she not with all that she had seen? How could she not want to be free of all this after everything that she had lost?! All she had to do was put down her spear and accept the embrace of the Shade before her and it would all be...
"...O...ver..."
A broken expression crossed the Shade's features...its head dipped low and if it had eyes beneath that black plate over its face, it might have seen the sudden pain that had laced through its body...the source of that pain. Through its chest, through the cross-patterned stitching down the center of it, a spear had been jammed through and came out the other side, covered in the black 'blood' that filled it. It's arms slumped slowly, catching only at the girl's stomach to wrap about her form...shaking limbs embracing her weakly...and blond curls dipped and brushed against Minori's shoulder, the chin of the Shade bumping against the curve in her neck to come to rest...and upon its lips there stretched a small smile...not creepy or wild, but softer...sad..even as the stitches that held her together began to dissolve and loosen, little wisps of her body reducing to nothing more than shadow and dust...until at last there was a single splattering...a tiny wetness...and another, just so.
Black tears dripped upon the shoulder of the girl and within her mind there was an image of something, unclear, uneasy to put into words. There were flashes, and something seemed to be transferring from one body to another...an unexplainable vision...
And even as the last of it came to her the black body of the Shade reduced a little further, arms falling away from itself and dissipating...its smile splitting until it was gone...and the rest of the Shade along with it.
The battle was over...Minori had won!Quote: The M. Shade has been defeated! But its impression had been made upon the team, and most importantly, Minori in particular. What imprint has it left behind on her? What lasting effects of its final touch, what is the clear form of the images that were seen, and for what purpose did the Shade exist? All of these questions matter little now, but in the future they may yet play a vital role...

Well that was an emotionally challenging event that she probably wished others hadn't witnessed. At least the Shade was defeated now, and they were all safe from harm; Minori would receive his appreciation most of all, since it looked like she had been the real keystone in bringing the team this victory. The Kirijo stood, stretching as he let out a relaxed sigh,hopping down from the rock near the trees he'd been sitting on and heading on into the fray. "Heeey, good work team. Boy, we showed that thing, am I right? What was up with that other one though? Maaan, it sure hated you Rednal." Zeo said, laughing and jabbing the other I.Teamer in the arm with his fist as a joke, pretending to put up his dukes for a second before sliding an arm around his shoulder. "And hey, that whole 'saying exactly what the Shades were saying' thing? Don't woooorry about it, I'm sure practically nobody remembers that. I mean, you were treating Amelia like a frail princess, and I'm pretty sure she's like Mitsuru so that was probably incredibly insulting to her, and then you were all like 'Minori do this! Minori do that!' when her Shade was berating her on her control issues...so you know, good one there too. But really, I think that blast at the end, that thing was totally what took it down. I mean it was like 'voosh', and the Shade was like 'Blast!', and then I couldn't really see what was going on in all that light, but I bet you totally struck an epic finisher. You the MAN!" Zeo said with a forceful pat on Rednal's back, whistling innocently as he attempted to hide the face he'd been there the whole time...and uh, hadn't...really...raised a fist against the babe. I mean okay, the Shade wasn't exactly a babe, but he figured there were enough parts there, and if you squinted a little...and his code was involved somehow...anyhow, it probably would have gone out with him. And for that, he regretted the outcome, but somewhere inside he knew it was necessary. That babe was probably in a better place now, anyway~
"Nix, good work, I think you should come by my place later and we can work on our 'teamwork'."
"Crowley, nice save."
K...kar...chara....whatever your name is, good work. You were all like 'bam', and it was like 'thwack!', and I was like 'Awesome!'."
"Amelia~, nice dress. Oh, sorry that whole Shade thing got away though. I wonder if it would be interested in a threeso-I mean, I hope you can make up with Minori right away!...trust me. I'm a doctor." "Teddie, I can bear-ly believe it took you down in the middle of our fierce teamwork! Psh, you were probably going easy on it."
"Faust, up top! Just kidding, but if you could get Kusuri to meet my behind the Gym building in school, that'd be cool. I have an uh...letter to give her. It's kind of private. Anyways, yeah, we won! Awesomez."
"Man, and then there was the part where we were like 'Pow!', and that thing was like 'Eff man!', but then it had that trick up it's sleeve all along. Yup, I will be sore tomorrow, no question .at .all. But at least we can all give ourselves a pat on the back, for a job well done." Zeo was nodding, satisfied with the team's work as he passed around the camp like an energetic High School boy who hadn't been in a life and death fight just now, as he passed compliments(?) from one person to another,totally acting like he'd been helping the entire time. Well uh, I mean, sure he had! As he paced along though, he was beginning to think he was forgetting something...and then finally it hit him. "Oh snap! Genji! My bromigo! Dude, he needs treated like, ASAP dudettes!" Zeo slid in beside Genji (literally with a sweet running, knee slide that stopped right by his side), checking on the pink haired lady killer who'd be an excellent wing-man on group dates because he didn't particularly look like he had all the right lines up his sleeve like Zeo, but his appearance was stylish enough to attract the babes and get them to strike up a conversation in the first place. Truly, the type who "said very little, but also quite a lot". "Liiiive bro, LIIIIIIIIIIVEE!" Zeo shouted, lifting Amagaic carefully, intending to take him for treatment as soon as possible...'course, it was probably for the best, because no one else here was likely strong enough to carry someone around that far.

 Ƞix Gallen XI call your name XBut it does not reach. XSo I will keep calling XUntil my love XReaches your heart X ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ Nix watched as Minori confronted the Shade, speaking her mind and accepting some of the feelings the strange shadow represented. The fight was finally over once it vanished, the blonde girl saved them all. Truth be told she was terrified of it attacking them once again to finish the job. After the hard and terrifying battle she felt like a connection of sorts was created between herself and some members of the team. While this battle was something they wish didn't happen it was also something that helped them grow closer together. "Everyone is alive right?" After glancing at everyone it was clear they were all still alive but all very hurt and some even unconscious. Though at least they would live to tell the tale about all this.
A familiar voice grabbed the snowy haired girl's attention. It was Zeo, if she recalled correctly. It sounded like he watched the entire fight but didn't help out in the least, though he might've stepped in if they were about to be killed.. right? The hyper blue haired boy hopped around, saying a little tidbit or two to the others before going to Genji. Nix seemed to have gotten somewhat of a second wind when she recalled how badly hurt he was. After forcing herself to her feet, the girl rushed over to Zeo. "You're right, we have to get him to the hospital as fast as we can! Please follow me to there, Zeo." The girl looked at Minori, a small frown coming to her face. "I'm sorry for taking off like this but someone needs to go with Zeo to make sure Genji gets some help. I'll text you when we get there so you know we're safe." With that said Nix nodded at Zeo and ran off, leading him towards the hospital. Time was still against them. ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ♫ Quote: Nix has forged a Social Link with: Faust - Moon: Level 4 Genji - Sun: Level 3 Minori - Temperance: Level 3 Amelia - Strength: Level 4 Kusuri - Chariot: Level 4 Teddie - Star: Level 3 Nix has left the area with Zeo and Genji!

"Huh? Wha-wait, babe, I have a private helicopter over here." Zeo said, pointing towards the tree line. It was Kirijo financed, so just like Mitsuru's motorcycle it had been prepared for emergencies, i.e. the Dark Hour. And though it was just far enough to have avoided the battle, it was kind of a lot closer than walking across town with a dead guy on your back. "Well, I can tell she cares at least. Maaan, I'm so lucky, to think she's so worried about me that she wants me to go to the hospital~ ah, Nix, I shall wait until you're ready to confess~" Zeo mumbled to himself with a thoughtful, perverted smile, carrying Genji over to the helicopter. Once he was loaded on, the sound filled the air with all sorts of awesome, kind of painful, helicopter blades spinning-y noises, taking off for the hospital. Should he have waited for the rest? Sure~. But he was too busy hearing voices in his head as he took off to do anything about that, because apparently some off-handed comments by Cerberus counted as a conversation. "Metal Cerberus says heelloooo~" Zeo said, waving out the helicopter. Yuuup, Schink, and all that.Quote: Zeo took Genji to the hospital in a helicopter! Also, leveled up with his Persona, or whatever.

Amelia M. Heartilly
It was all over at this point, Amelia stirring some with pain still going over her. A shaky breath escaped her with a hand holding a fistful of ash and dirt, the girl trying to bring herself back on her feet. She yelped, nearly falling back on the ground before she whispered 'Mizuchi' to summon a certain, icy water snake to curl upon her shoulders. Her mind was still buzzing, throbbing, and her body was refusing move at this point, but with some healing magic from the dear snake it will at least get her to stand on her own two legs. Amelia tried once more and finally stood up and held onto her arm, looking to see that Minori and the others are doing alright now... save for some terrible beatings in the process. "..." she couldn't muster up anything to say, nothing at all. The girl took a step back, lifting a bone whistle to her lips and blowing out a single sound to bring about the 8-legged steed by her side. With her weak body climbing onto the demon horse, Amelia tugged at its mane and soon rode off with the Shade's words burning into her mind.

 Kar u Raiku Karu gave a short groan trying to get on to his feet. He had the be slow with this or he'd most likely end up falling down again. One of his hands on the ground he managed to get to off his back to his knees. Unlike Amelia he didn't exactly have a quick method to get back to his place, he was going to hike back or well limp back. With a fair a bit more effort he managed to force him to his feet shakily. He wasn't exactly feeling the most stable at the moment, hopefully there was plenty of stuff he could support himself with while he was walking home, it was one of the times that he was wishing he had a sword or something that he could use as a walking stick or something. Even with how sore he was after the battle he still felt the need to make sure people were alright. "You guys, okay? Or at least something like okay?" He spoke up a bit shakily, being knocked out twice wasn't doing him very well he was sort of waiting to make sure more of the people managed to get on their feet. Perhaps he could get someone to walk with so the pain of the fight wouldn't seem as bad if he had someone with himQuote: Karu has forged New Social Link - Faust - Temperance raised to Level 1 Nix - Star raised to Level 1 Rednal - Hermit raised to Level 1 Minori - Temperance raised to Level 1 Amelia - Lovers raised to Level 1 - might another when I'm less tired-
