[[Gen]] "Why do you say that?" Setsuna was suspicious. Why would he think this? Moreover, why would he come to her of all people? "I will admit that she did say she was going into some alleyway yesterday it is strange that she hasn't contacted anyone but for all we know, she could just be sick in bed and just too tired to contact anyone."

We can probably chalk that to Vixen being too far away. I wanted to have Nagi notice it when she was on the roof but...I wasn't sure if 300 feet was too far away…

I just wanted to get one pun in edgewise… *mopes*

"Vixen's comment"?

Let's see how long it take before it gets pulled up to the next level.

I'm good either way. I just wanted to make sure about it.

I do love me a good cargo ship. BTW, where is your character right now? It's kinda unclear...

Geez, it's only the third post of Chapter 1 and we've already got a pairing in the works.

Ruri was glad she decided to use those rolling suitcases that her family ended up keeping in the closet. She ended up packing a lot of stuff to the point where one would wonder where her priorities were set. As she stood staring at the large Hope Complex in awe, she held rested the two suitcases in her hand and clenched at the telescope case and backpack strap she had strapped over her shoulder. After receiving her ID lanyard, she placed it over the back of the black collar on her neck. Once the debriefing had ended, she had followed a couple of the girls to the elevator, while lagging quite a bit behind due to the amount of weight on her back. After both of the girls had made their way into the elevator, she immediately broke into a run. "DON'T CLOSE THE DOOR!" she shouted as she practically skidded into the elevator, worried that the doors would close on her. Seeing as she made it in, however, she sighed as she placed the two rolling bags in the corner against the wall, meticulously placed the telescope case on top of the bags, and rested her heavy backpack against the rolling bags. "Phew. Made it."

[[Anna/Gen]] "No, you don't need to do that. Thanks for the information, though." Setsuna simply thanked the teacher before she was suddenly faced by one of the other students asking to meet him on the rooftop in a rather sudden manner. Before she could reply, however, the boy was gone. Seeing as he probably needed to talk to her, she decided to head to the rooftop and opened the door as she entered.

Meh, everybody makes mistakes.

Did somebody say Card Games on Motorcycles?

I ain't no Eterna, mang… But, if we keep on predicting him, somebody is bound to be right. So, Eterna is my prediction.

In her moment of tunnel vision, Nagi had neglected to notice that there were other magic-users who had entered the alleyway. So, she picked up the rifle case from where she had left it and strapped it to her back before partially transforming her feet and doing a serial jump back into the alleyway. As she landed and disengaged her transformation, she heard Bark talking to the other party in a seemingly passive aggressive manner. She walked up to him and placed an arm to her side and out in front of him. "Easy there. No need to be so passive-aggressive. The last thing we need is to have some sort of confrontation between idiot magic-users in between multiple office buildings. So, why doesn't everyone simply disengage? It's not likely that the beast will be returning any time soon at this point."

Rated: 5 Chespins out of 5 Yep. It's YGO Arc-V. If you couldn't tell, I love the character designs for the three Yuzus who've been shown in the series so far.

It happened too quickly for her to notice. Jumping in while the others were barraging the beast with attacks was suicide for a close to mid-range combatant like Nagi. So, she simply decided to observe its behavior and strike once the current wave of attacks had subsided. While an ice attack that came from somewhere else entirely along with the other two combatants' attacks hit it, the thing not only seemed to remain near unscathed, but was also starting to release an attack. But, before she could react properly, the beast released a purple energy. The next thing she knew, the shockwaves of some explosion had thrown her about high in the air, especially compared to the others as a result of her small body size. As her body flew through the air, she could see the beast making its upward escape. "Oh no you don't." She muttered while forming another spear and jabbing it into the wall to allow her body to pivot into an upright position. At that moment, she let the spear dissipate gently as she created a platform to jump off of. "I am NOT letting you get away." With that, she sprung up to a height of a few meters above the roof of the building only to watch as the beast broke through a some sort of trapping net and flew off into the distance. She gritted her teeth in disgust as she landed gracefully and silently back on the roof she had left her rifle on. Even as she disengaged her transformation, an expression of disgust which would look out of place remained on her normal face. She lifted her right hand and held it out as if she were trying to grasp the space where she saw the beast fly off to. As soon as her hand clenched into a fist, she immediately slammed the side of it into the wall surrounding the elevator next to her. "DAMMIT!" The beast escaped. Even worse, that meant more denizens of the peaceful world would be dragged into the murky depths of the world that they should never have to even glance upon. It was as if some sadistic god was trying to mock everything she stood for through this simple failure.
