Flandre! I see you decided to join us. I guess I won't need to reunite you with your old friend.

 

So you know her?

 

 

 

"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 saw you and the others attack the creature along side us. I immediately buffed you. It was obvious you were on our side.

 

That was some quick thinking.

 

I'm glad I could help. Is everyone ok?

 

 

 

"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...

The barrage of attacks all struck the creature at the same time. This appeared to be too much for the creature, as it was soon fell backwards and faded into a somewhat large puddle of purple goo. Shadows seemed to be visible around it, but it did not take the same shape as the creature's body. With the creature's defeat, the vortex soon close, leaving the goo that once made up the creature's body behind. 

 

 

 

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?"

Lilith then noticed the presence of Sasuke and Flandre.

 

"Oh, I didn't realize we had others that got dragged into this."

 

 

 

"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.

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.

 

 

 

On 12/5/2019 at 11:40 AM, A person said:

The creature simply held up its claw arm to protect itself from the projectiles coming its way, the hole in the claw absorbing any projectiles that managed to come at it. It was possibly left open by this.

 

 

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.

(It absorbed the projectiles...and it effectively reacted to all our attacks. Ok...)

 

Everyone! A frontal attack won't work! Some of us will need to distract him while the others attack from behind! I can also sense a dark aura coming from within. I would know...

 

 

 

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.

LightFlare fires a Light Burst at the beasts head. Inside the lobby, Melina hears the battle begin...

 

It sounds like a war zone! Penny! Stay inside! Lilith! Come with me!

 

Melina runs outside and is shocked by what her eyes see.

 

Light! I'm behind you!

"..."

 

 

"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.

On 11/28/2019 at 4:49 PM, LightFlare_Da_Realest said:

That sounds rough. And you've been stuck here...well...in Kalos, ever since. 

 

 

That's right. We still don't know why that happened. Even Raina fell victim to this occurrence. Maybe her story is similar to yours, Flandre. But it wouldn't explain yours, Penny. Once we all regroup we can maybe take some time to discuss this more.

 

 

 

"Where is Raina, anyway?" Flandre asked.

 

2 hours ago, A person said:

Penelope quietly watched him walk towards the elevator. Maybe he was right about all of that...maybe there was something within her. Maybe she really did need to practice, just like Lilith said. She quietly thought about all of this, until the next distraction came around. Outside, a loud commotion could be heard in the form of screams and roars of fear. Underneath this, a low hum that slowly grew in pitch could be heard, and the wind suddenly picked up into a violent gust. Penelope glanced around nervously. 

 

Penelope: Uhhh, am I the only one hearing that? Did the concert start getting wild again?

 

At least, that's what she felt like at first. However, she could feel that something was wrong; she was not in there for that long, and it looked like things were dying down when she decided to come back. There was no way they could start one up and gather that many people that quick.

 

 

"I hear it too."

10 hours ago, LightFlare_Da_Realest said:

That's unfortunate. How'd something like that happen?

 

As LightFlare spoke with Flandre, he couldn't help but feel a bit uneasy.

 

(Something's not right. Ever since I spoke with those guards in the street before....I've had this strange feeling that something is off.)

 

 

 

"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."

 

10 hours ago, LightFlare_Da_Realest said:

You ever get that feeling that something bad is about to happen?

 

You too, Walt? What are you guys talking about?

 

 

 

"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...

5 hours ago, LightFlare_Da_Realest said:

It was a fierce battle. So many unnamed heroes that all played a part. I'm glad to see someone from that day alive and well. Were you originally from Kalos?

 

 

"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.

12 hours ago, LightFlare_Da_Realest said:

Indeed....

 

LightFlare pauses...an image of Flandre flashed in his head...

 

That day...years ago. You were there, weren't you? At Ground Zero?

 

 

 

"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.

 

13 hours ago, LightFlare_Da_Realest said:

 

It was quite an exciting challenge. This place is everything I've heard about it and then some. I should sleep good tonight. That was some workout.

 

 

 

"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?

3 hours ago, LightFlare_Da_Realest said:

Hey girlfriend! You were awesome during the drill!

 

Agreed. Hope you're feeling ok.

 

Now it's time to pig out! Haha!

 

I've always said you were a pig...

 

I'm gonna reach over this table...and give you a love tap...on the cheek...with my fist!

 

Ha! Hold on! Let me finish this last bite. Hahaha!

 

 

 

"Thanks guys, the drill was a lot of fun," Raina replied.

Fortunately, Penelope would walk in the door right as Lightflare began his search for the girl. She had not known that he was even looking for her, and, had she decided to stay out a bit longer, probably would have caused a huge scene. Regardless, she led Flandre into the Warrior's Hangout happily, and turned towards the girl once they were inside.


Penelope: Here we are, the...umm..."Warrior's Hangout", I think is what it's called, yeah! Thank you for using Penelope's Taxi service! So, what's your name?

Even after all of that, she still wasn't aware of Lightflare.

 

 

"I'm Flandre! Flandre Scarlet!"

LightFlare smiles as he sees a familiar vibrant young lady in purple.

 

Penny! I see you're still awake! Were finished with the drill. I'm heading up to the infirmary to meet the others. Then we'll grab a bite to eat. I can grab you something if you like? 

 

 

"Who's you're friend?"

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.

 

 

Having paid for her food, Raina proceeds to sit near Melina and the others.

On 11/22/2019 at 1:03 AM, A person said:

Bingo. And she gets a new friend in the process! Now she definitely had to go back to the hangout; she just could not leave a new friend hanging!


Penelope: Yeah, that'd be really nice! C'mon, I'll show you where she is!

The girl started to make her way towards the hangout once again, now with a little more perk. At least, if she got yelled at, she was getting yelled at with another friend!

 

 

Flandre followed excitedly, a skip to her step.

I don't know about you guys, but I've worked up an appetite. Let's grab a bite to eat in the cafeteria.

 

All 4 went to the cafeteria to find food.

 

 

 

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.

"It doesn't seem like any of you have received any serious wounds. No broken bones either? If you have no adverse effects to light or holy magic, then a basic healing spell should be enough."

 

 

 

"That will be fine," Raina answered.

On 11/11/2019 at 8:08 PM, A person said:

Penelope: Oooooh, you know her? Ummm...aaaaare you looking for herrr, orrrrr...?

 

She probably would not be able to answer many questions about Raina, since she knew pretty much nothing about her other than the fact that she was probably from another world? Maybe? Did people here really shoot stuff out and make firework stuff with their hands? There was Lightflare with his fireball things...maybe she was the one who was out of place, now that she thought about it; everyone else could do crazy magic stuff with their hands! This girl looked kind of funny, too...maybe this was one of Raina's friends?

 

 

 

"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?"

6 hours ago, LightFlare_Da_Realest said:

 

Thanks! I'll be heading up. Raina? Guys? You coming?

 

 

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

 

 

 

49 minutes ago, Darkflare said:

Raph proceeded to interact with the console and begin shutting down the drill.

Soon after the enemies and the environment began to disappear.

 

"Sorry boys and girls but I'm afraid we'll have to end this one early due to technical difficulties and safety concerns. Head to the center so we can pull you out quickly."

 

 

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.

On 11/15/2019 at 6:02 PM, Darkflare said:

The remaining assassin had positioned itself in an area overlooking the group. Blade in hand, it waited for its moment. In an instant, the sound of both snipers firing about a second apart from each shot was heard, as the assassin proceeded to reflect those bullets toward Lucent and Raina.

 

'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.'

On 11/13/2019 at 11:23 PM, LightFlare_Da_Realest said:

 

Anwalt pulls back on his captured are, places his feet firmly on the ground, tightens his stance, blocks the palm strike with his forearm and tries to use the same arm to deliver an uppercut that could send the assassin airborne if it connects.

 

 

 

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 10/31/2019 at 8:04 PM, A person said:

The girl heard herself being called by someone. Oh no, was her nightmare coming true?! There was only one way to know for sure...she turned around to face the person that called out to her, put on her best smile, and- Oh, it actually wasn't a super creepy guy this time! That gave her even more of a reason to be as nice as possible.

 

Penelope: Oh, hi there! Are you talking to me?

 

It was safe to assume that she had most certainly gotten her attention.

 

 

 

"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!"

On 11/4/2019 at 3:31 PM, Darkflare said:

 

The assassin put its sword in front of it, holding on it with both hands. The assassin was attempting to reflect this attack back but was currently struggling on simply holding on. If one was careful not to be exposed to the snipers, a follow up attack was possible.

 

On 11/4/2019 at 9:46 PM, LightFlare_Da_Realest said:

Another one bites the dust.

 

Anwalt eyes suddenly open wide as he grabs a large piece of the floor near him, spins around and tosses it at the Assassin blocking Raina's attack like a shot puck. He uses rhe momentum from his spin to roll behind a box nearby. His hope is to damage the assassin enough for him to lose control of Raina's attack as well.

 

 

 

'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.
