Dumanios

"Course I do!" "I... don't believe we do?" Raina hadn't ever met the kid in red who was talking to her, the kid with powers much like those of her home Fantasia. However, she clearly knew her. Did the incident that brought Raina to this world also take away memories? Was it possible that Flandre knew a Raina, but she wasn't that Raina? "Don't you remember everything we did?" "Maybe I'm not your Raina?" the shrinemaiden supplied, trying to make sense of the situation. "Hmm...," Flandre thought about it, "maybe what happened is that those gap ladies tried to bring you back but they messed up?" Speaking of a gap demon was unexpected - the idea of multiple even more so. Raina had only ever known one and believed her to be a one of a kind type of monster. If there were multiple... "I'm unharmed," Sasuke responded. He glanced over towards Raina and Flandre - the two appeared to be uninjured as well. 'Where have I seen them before?' he thought. He'd seen Raina in the lobby, but the other girl was by all means unknown, and yet...

Although the monster had been defeated, Raina didn't come down from her position in the air. Whatever those shadows were boded poorly. Sasuke seemed to have the same idea, though he was looking more towards the vortex that brought the monster to this place in the first place, wondering the exact nature of the portal. Flandre, on the other hand, didn't really pay attention, flying towards Raina. "Hey Raina! It's been a while!" "A... while?" Raina responded, confused. "Yeah, it's been so long! Don't tell me you forgot?" "I can't speak for that girl, but I knew that monster was a threat and simply acted." Sasuke had a feeling that that creature, like himself, was from outside this world. Perhaps learning more about that monster would help him learn about both the Otsutsuki clan and provide a path home... he had to consider how difficult it would be though for a ninja to face off against those monsters...

Raina prepared her next attack - several orbs that would target the monster from different, intending to keep him from absorbing all of the orbs. The temptation to go in close was there, but she held it back. Flandre, meanwhile, dashed toward the monster, intending to slam into the creature with a hard punch. https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/mugen/images/d/d5/RPFlandre2S2_1.gif Sasuke's chidori is charged and ready - he moves forward towards the monster, before using a substitution technique to switch places with one of Raina's orbs to instead pierce the monster's side rather than a frontal attack.

Flandre narrowly missed the creature, but she was in a good position to attack. Charging a bit of power into her fist, she punched the monster, intending to deal a strong blow. Raina moved upward to place herself directly above the monster, firing small orbs at the monster throughtout her aerial arc.

Raina saw what Lightflare was preparing. A seal of some sort... if it worked- no, it had to work. "Freedom Seal!" Sasuke, meanwhile, prepared his next attack. Adopting the patient approach Lilith possessed, he began charging a Chidori, intending to strike when the moment was right. Flandre's stream of projectiles came to an end, instead charging downward towards the monster. Perhaps close range attacks and bursts of bullets would be easier. Flan's charge would slam into the monster's arm.

Raina floated lower, preparing an attack at the monsters left side. "Flandre, now!" Raina said, firing an orb towards the monster. Flandre moved to the monster's right and fired a larger group of projectiles, both at and around the monster. 'No eye's then...,' Sasuke thought. He'd dealt with opponents who fought without eyes before. Sasuke charged his next attack, the Chidori Spear, aiming for the elbow joint on the hole-claw arm.

Sasuke gazed into the creature's eyes before casting a genjutsu against it. If the creature was affected by this technique, it'd be paralyzed for long enough that attacks would hit it. 'There they are,' Raina thought, seeing where Anwalt and the others were attacking from. Taking the new information into account, Raina took the original orb she'd previously charged and split it into smaller orbs, firing them towards the monster as well as his surroundings. While only a few were primed to hit the creature, the others were set to hit areas behind and in front of the monster, meaning whatever direction he went would lead to him being hit by either Raina or Lilith's attacks. Flandre, meanwhile, summoned a cross-shaped projectile, while firing more smaller projectiles in the general direction of the monster. With the wide arc she was firing, most of these would go around the monster as well.

Raina charged an orb, but seeing what Lilith was doing, didn't toss it yet. "Raina, what's going on?" "Lilith's trying something. Nothing I've done yet has worked, so maybe..." "What if we produce enough attacks that it can't avoid it all?" Flandre asked. Down on the ground, Sasuke shifted to behind Lightflare, considering using a genjutsu against the monster. Perhaps that'd stop the creature's movement, but he wouldn't put things into action yet.

With Anwalt and Melina behind the monster, Raina drifted behind the creature as well, shooting several smaller orbs towards the creatures back. Flandre flew to the creatures left, ready to attack, she summoned a giant energy sword and swung it towards the creature. It had absorbed projectiles, but maybe it would lose to this attack... Sasuke concluded that projectile ninjutsu would be useless until that hole thing in the monster's arm was dealt with somehow, but what of ranged weaponry, he wondered? Sasuke charged to the creature's left, throwing kunai towards the monster's left arm. These kunai held explosive tags on them that would explode on impact with their target.

"What's going on out there?" "..." "Sasaki, right? Let's see what's out there." "Raina! Sasuke! Where have you-" "Stay back. This is too intense for kids," Sasuke stated, creating a shadow clone to guard Flandre and Penelope. "Hey, I can fight too!" "Fine then." If the girl could fight, then Sasuke would see soon enough. She didn't carry herself like a fighter, but perhaps he'd misread her. She held a lot of raw power, but whether there was any training to back it up... The three of them exited the Warrior's Hangout, seeing the monster that had appeared. "He's pretty big..." "Let's go, Raina!" Flandre said, before taking off into the air, drifting to the monster's right. Raina went into the air as well, heading to the monster's left. She charged up an orb and fired it toward the monster's head. Sasuke, meanwhile, stayed off the ground, activating his Sharingan.

"Where is Raina, anyway?" Flandre asked. "I hear it too."

"While I was with my friends we got caught in the middle of gap youkai plots. Things happened and we got split from each other." "That's the feeling I'm getting too. One of my friends back home would call it 'Danger sense'... " Raina said. Closing her eyes, she turned her attention to people's spirits... aside from the people around her and the scythe guy, there were a few other strong people in the cafeteria. She looked towards the lobby, where Lightflare's energy was conversing with a surprisingly strong energy. She opened her eyes, she had a feeling that going to the lobby would help answer her questions. Elsewhere, Sasuke began heading towards the lobby, sensing the strange chakra that was there...

"Nope, I'm from another world but I got stuck here." Further inside the Warrior's Hangout Sasuke had a feeling that something was going to happen soon... he chalked it up to his ninja's intuition. He turned off his sharingan, having used it to read information on the phone he'd been given. The incident at Kalos City, this world's status as a 'link world' and what that entailed, hoping for some sort of clue to leaving this world. Gordeau hadn't heard of anyone being able to enter but not leave, and his searching on the internet yielded nothing either... "Thanks for the help," Sasuke said to the Warrior's Hangout aide who's phone he had, returning it to her.

"Yeah, I was there. It was..." Flandre trailed off. Flandre recalled the Battle for Kalos City - people from everywhere fighting left and right. She'd been involved with an adventure with two friends, people who'd come together despite bizarre circumstances to do battle. Sasuke who was prickly like Sakuya and sometimes stern like her sister but was a nice person under all that and Raina who felt nice and warm all the time. Something involving Yukari happened and she'd wound up separated from her friends who were in Gensokyo. This big city was a strange place that she'd never been in before, and there was also something really big in the sky. Flandre was never very good with directions, but with Sasuke and Raina it would've been fine. Without them though... "Where are you?" Flandre's focus was finding Raina and Sasuke. The clones were a distraction, but not much of a fight since Flandre could make her own clones. Then the huge thing in the sky disappeared. Flandre swore she saw Reimu during the incident, but Flandre seemed to blink and she was gone... "It was not fun," Flandre summarized. "I have a feeling I'll be sleeping well too," Raina replied. That said, there was a bit of a nagging feeling at the back of her head... there was something about to happen, right? But what?

"Thanks guys, the drill was a lot of fun," Raina replied. "It's good to meet you too! You're that famous Lightflare from TV, aren't you?"

"I'm Flandre! Flandre Scarlet!" "Who's you're friend?" Having paid for her food, Raina proceeds to sit near Melina and the others.

Flandre followed excitedly, a skip to her step. Raina followed suit, taking some time to examine the menu in the cafeteria before picking a pizza and some water. Afterward, Raina went to the nearest merchant to pay for her food - no need to repeat that mistake.

"That will be fine," Raina answered.

"Yeah, I'm looking for Raina! You're a friend of hers, right? I'm a friend of hers too, maybe we can both be friends?"

"Yeah I'm comin'," Raina replied, following Melina and the others into the elevator.

With the assassins and environment disappearing, Raina was shocked. Upon hearing the announcement, Raina began to head to the center. "So now what?" Raina asked Anwalt.

'You're kidding...' Raina slid towards cover to avoid the bullet. 'As long as he has that blade, any projectiles will have a hard time beating him. Maybe I should get close instead.'

Raina charged a large orb in her hands, preparing to fire it toward the assassin Anwalt was fighting once there was enough distance between the two of them.

"On it!' Raina shot backward and locked her sight on the mechanical spiders, preparing card-like bullets to fire towards the spiders. 'Gotcha.' "Hi there, I wanted to ask you some questions about Raina - she's about this tall," - Flandre punctuated this by holding her hand above her head - ",and kinda cool and blonde like me!"

'He can't hold out forever, can he?' Raina charged up an orb, preparing to fire toward the assassin. Hearing the rumbling sound, Raina looked to see Anwalt throw the floor at the Assassin. 'Since teamwork's the idea here, I have a plan.' Charging the orb's power, she launched to to ensure it fired in an arc that would land the orb on the opposite side from where the floor was incoming.
