A Valentine's Purpose [Natashi]

Posts : 168 Join date : 2013-08-09 Age : 30

Vera had been quite distant this entire time. With the appearance of the male that reminded her of Gabriela, the disappearance of the Users into the tower once again, and even the sounds of battle from a distance. What she did react too, though, was the return of Natashi and his group. She figured since she was alone, as Mir and Kogami had gone into the tower, she'd be able to do some investigating by herself. The young violet haired female would close her book and stand. Making her way from the tree, she'd come across Natashi with a look of indifference. "I apologize if I'm interrupting you, but I believe now would be the best time to have our talk." The Thief gave a thin smile before crossing her arms and giving some thought on the situation. "This tower used to be Yachiru's building, correct? Meaning it most likely holds some information on our current situation. My question is: Is there a chance that information is still available for us to obtain? My family trade is rather deplorable, but honorable. The Valentina Family is a family of thieves. We steal from those who can afford it, and I'm completely sure Yachiru can afford a few things missing from his archives." Vera pinched her chin in thought, as her eyes glossed towards the tower, pass Natashi. "So, is there any way for me to access different parts of the tower to retrieve this information? Or are they at the top with the rest of our adversaries? I'd like to leave before the others come back." It wasn't as if she didn't like the others being around. No, she just preferred to do this kind of work alone. Bringing others with her on something like this would cause nothing but issues in regards to her skills and talent. Plus she was much better working alone. She had always been alone as a child, so bringing others into her life was abit much at once. Vera needed to be sure she could do this, and with others with her she believed it would do nothing but backfire.

It wasn't as if they needed her anyway. Kogami was strong enough to fill her shoes two times as much. So if he were with them, she didn't worry they'd fall so easily. There was always the chance she could also fail this mission. If others were with her when she did, that'd take too many potential soldiers that was on their side. Meaning, she'd be hurting more than helping. But if she were to die, which she didn't plan on, but if she did she would just be one casualty. No matter, she looked back at Natashi and awaited any information he could share with her. "So, do you know anything, Natashi-san? I'd like to begin this mission as soon as possible, if you do not mind. The faster we can gain intel on our targets, the easier our jobs will become in the future. We cannot keep blindly tracking through the tower without any idea on what's to come."

When Natashi returned, he took a look at Vera and automatically knew she had some business to speak of. Anya and Kirito continued on their way and he would stop infront of the visitor with a look of indifference. Natashi hadn't conversed long with this young woman before, but he knew she was abit different from the others. Well, more distant if anything. She didn't really get involved with the plans the others made, nor did she seem to care much about them which was alittle offsetting. But, to be honest, he felt she was hiding her feelings from the others and she did truly care. When she started to explain her family trade, alot of things made sense. Someone who was a thief, who lived their entire life in the shadows, would have difficulty being vocal around others. She did have a good idea, and it was possible for her to get information from the tower using a different entrance than the front. She'd have to go through the back that lead down instead of upward towards the peak of the tower. But the problem was there was no guarantee she'd be able to make it back, or even if there was anything left down there that was of use. It'd be a risk to take, but if she really wanted to try it, she'd be throwing her life to the wolves. Supporting her down there was simply impossible because getting deep into the basement of the tower took alot of work. He would stroke his chin and give a sigh before finally speaking to the young woman who had such a look of determination on her face.

"Well, there is a back entrance that could lead you to the information you're searching for but that doesn't mean you'll be able to find anything down there. There's a chance that data was destroyed, and also a chance there's no exit when you go in. But, let me just say this. You shouldn't be taking the burden of everything alone. I've done that before, and it has some high consequences. Sometimes you have to put trust in others, you know?" Natashi wasn't the type of guy who could give great advice, but he had seen this before. Especially when he was just a student at Kizuna Academy himself. He only hoped she'd listen to his advice for once, for these were one of the few times Natashi was serious. He would give her a slight tap on the shoulder before walking pass to go back to the shop Anya had set up. "If you plan on changing your mind, come join us over here. I know you're hungry, you haven't eaten a thing since I've seen you. Come spend some time with us, we don't bite much." He was giving her a free initiation to join them in having fun. Anya already set up a table in the courtyard and started to pass some food around that she was keeping warm on the grill. After that fight with Souka, they needed to recharge their batteries anyway. Natashi sat on one side of the table with Kirito at his side. Anya sat on another with an open space for Vera to join if she wished.

She put the spread on the table, being strips of seasoned grilled meat and some loafs of bread. She even had drinks that varied from the basic soda pop to sweet tea. Once the Satoshi set the table, she took a seat and waited for the violet haired girl to join them before digging in. Natashi did the same, while Kirito stared at her food with a bit of drool coming from her lips. Unlike the other civilized people, Kirito was pretty much an animal since birth.

A back entrance, huh? She was going to have to look into this. Half of her mind wanted to go there now, but the other half stayed and listened to the man. He spoke as if he had ever been in her shoes, which maybe he had been. Though could she really take the words of a criminal to heart? ... Who was she kidding? She was a murderer and a criminal, they were like peas in a pod. Trusting others really wasn't her strong point, but she did want to change. Vera wanted to be like others, but she didn't want her heart to be broken. Unlike the demeanor she put up, she was not strong at all. She was sensitive, and figured if she were cold to everyone they wouldn't be able to crack that frozen shell. If they couldn't do that, they couldn't hurt her to any degree. She didn't want another situation like Gabriela. But she was still fickle. Too fickle. Vera really wished to put her trust into something completely and become an average young woman. But with blood on her hands, could she really wish for something like that? Taking a life changed people.

She brushed her hair behind a ear while walking up to the table and taking a seat by Anya. Red came across her cheeks, as she was not used to participating in such a thing. Bowing her head, she would thank the group for allowing her to join them; hoping they wouldn't force her to use much words. "I.. um. Thank you. I'm sorry for being on my own all these times. I've never really had relationships with others around my age. I don't know how to talk to them without seeming intimidating or cruel. It's not as if I do not like them, it's just.." Vera couldn't find the words, as her eyes looked over to Anya. They were in the same class and were both on student council. If anything, Anya would know the most about her than anyone else out there this night. To be honest, Vera was relieved to see her, but at the same time scared. Scared that something would happen to her and the memories they made through the school year would be null and void. This was the first time they spent time together outside of school work, so it was strange.

Then you had Kirito and Natashi aswell. They were basically two strangers to her, but they were inviting her to have lunch with them while the others were away. Was this how true friendships were? Even in tough times, they were able to come together and put a smile on each other's faces? The young thief couldn't help but feeling herself smile for abit before covering her mouth and looking at the food. "You all are really close. I'm envious, really."

Anya gave a smile when Vera decided to join the small group. She was genuinely happy that her fellow classmate and member of student council joined her. They did only speak during school, but Anya was always interested in the people she worked with. The school girl gave a giggle at Vera's reaction to the food and spoke. "Valentine, I'm actually glad you came over to talk with us. It's been awhile since we've spoke to each other, so I was hoping we'd be able to catch up." The first time Anya had met Vera, it had been in their freshman class at Kizuna Academy. Vera was a transfer student just starting, but Anya never went to speak to her. Back then, Anya was pretty distant from everyone. She was depressed and didn't know how to cope with her feelings. That's when Natashi came into her life and brought her to a world of her dreams. One with little responsibilities and fun. Though, she lost herself in that world. It corrupted her and she completely lost herself to the world of bliss. When she returned, she felt relieved. Like all those negative thoughts and depression in her heart was purged after what he had done.

People hated Natashi for the chaos he put the city through, but she was thankful he came to help. She only wished to do the same for Vera. Anya wasn't sure if Vera was depressed, or if there was something else making her so distant, but the blonde haired student council president would smile. As she spoke to get to know her classmate and fellow club mate better, Natashi and Kirito were too busy playing around on the other side of the table. Natashi held up a plate of steak high over Kirito's head, and she was hopping from her seat trying to take it. Those two were playful together, almost like a couple.

A Valentine's Purpose [Natashi] Tumblr_mzy8g5z1lO1s1nw76o3_250

Sometimes Anya got jealous how those two were, considering she couldn't say she had a best friend herself. Don't get her wrong, she had friends. She just didn't have a best friend because you could honestly not tell who was there for you, or your position in the student council. When she was a freshman, she hung out with the troublemakers, and even then they were not her true friends. With Natashi and Kirito, she truly felt like she had friends that cared about her. It made her happy, and wanted Vera to be just as happy. "So when did you first get your Persona, Vera? I'm sure you have one if you're able to operate out here, right? I never would have guessed, but there was a certain air around you."

"A certain 'air' of death, maybe." A black plume of smoke would come crashing down from the sky and onto the table with enough force to send those sitting at it flying. The table itself would be destroyed, as a flaming red headed teen would have broke through it with sheer force. Seeing these bastards having a fun time, eating together, like they hadn't just played a part in killing someone pissed him off to no ends. The teen had orders to lay low in the tower and keep an eye on them, but with the recent events, he couldn't see himself doing that. And anyway, if he killed them here and now, then the rest of the Kings would be safe. By that decree, killing these bastards for what they did to Four was doing everyone a damn favor. His first target after the surprise attack would be Anya, as he shot off and forcefully reached for her neck to pin her to a nearby tree in the courtyard. His Persona appeared behind him, blocking the others off just incase they came for a counterattack. With Four's recent demise, and the Third's training, Yatagarasu felt more than capable when it came to dealing with the lot of them. He may have been weak before, but something in his soul had ignited with the loss of a comrade. Was this what it meant to be a King? To grow stronger with the death of the others until one was left? It was cruel, but potentially necessary. Sora was quite vainglorious, but he knew before that he had no chance of defeating every single one of these bastards alone. Now, however?

"You all seem to be having fun down here taking lives. How about an eye for an eye?" There was a sinister smirk upon his face as his Persona seem to coat his forearm in what appeared to be a sharp daggers of flames. It appeared his plan was to sear through Satoshi's skull with his barehand. If the others stood around and allowed this, his plan would surely go through. However, he was banking on them making a move to save her. And he wasn't dumb either; he knew Satoshi most likely had strange abilities aswell since she was operation during this red laced night. But no matter what they did, he planned on killing them all before the rest got back. Atleast then, they'd know the same pain, right? It was a shame the ice princess was out here, though. Once upon a time he liked her, but now she was another body to add to the pile!

This small group surely did feel like a family. Who would have though two victims and a culprit from last years dilemma would be able to look past their differences and become so close? It gave some hope to Vera that anyone could change and understand one another if they gave some effort. It caused the usual ice princess to give a small smile before being asked how she gained her Persona. She would move a strand of hair behind her ear awhile looking sideways. "Well, it was in a dream, if I recall. It's sort of hazy, but I recall having to fight to survive with others. Those who survived was gifted a Persona to call their own. A few others actually awakened with me, but I have no idea where they are now. I know, for a fact, that one of them have died." The Thief spoke of death as easy as any other word. It never dawned on her how much death surrounded her recently, and how it was now second nature in her life.

She wished to continue further, but a sudden impact sent her suddenly flying back and to her backside on the grassy ground. Vera immediately rolled to her feet and summoned her daggers to hand. She had already become combat ready without assessing the situation. Another thing that had become second nature in her life, apparently. When Vera took notice of the culprit behind this sudden event, she raised a brow. This was the first time Yatagarasu was so violent in his approach towards them. And how he went for Satoshi; she could obviously tell he meant business. But what was he talking about in terms of an eye for an eye? Had they taken something from him? And down here taking lives? There was so much she didn't understand!

"Yatagarasu, let her go! Whatever you're talking about, she had nothing to do with it. We've been here the entire time. Your violence is being misdirected. Don't hurt her or I'll have no choice but to see you as the enemy." Vera attempted to speak to him calmly as a sign of respect before going straight for the attack. However, she knew precaution had to be put in case. If Satoshi was truly in danger, this was becoming a sort of hostage situation. Perhaps she could escape herself? Regardless, the Thief was all too curious on why this turn of events came to past. Were the users successful in their previous mission within the tower? Did that success take the life of someone? She wished to be updated on the situation as soon as possible. Just to be safe, Laverna remained on standby. Thanks to being a Tainted Persona user for some time, Vera's ability to call her Persona forth wasn't as painful as it used to be. Although she still did have to go through the process of forcing it out, the sensation was rather dull now. The sharpness of it grating on her mind seemed to finally fade away with time.

Kogami was already on his way back, he was done with abruai and he figured that it would be a waste of time trying to get someone to talk that simply doesn’t want to talk. So with that being said, Kogami made it a point to keep it moving, even though he overheard the last few bits with his hearing. “Sssssssss-shit…so he’s summoning death? Well isn’t that funny…. Maybe Vera would laugh at my new death joke. “Suddenly, Kogami would hear something in the distance and tip his hat, there seemed to be an angry flame head in the distance.

“What the hell is going on now?” Kogami would say as he accessed his true self and game himself a quick burst of speed, heading on towards the area and catching a glimpse of Yata chocking the life out of Anaya. He proceeded to send out a dozen snakes (12) that made a Zig Zag pattern around the persona and strike at yata twice in unison, the last two ectoplasma snakes seemingly got a grip on Anaya’s clothing to tug her more towards Kogami for safety. if yata decided to do a little bit of evasive maneuvers of the sort if the attack didn’t manage to hit him or do anything decisive. It was a matter of misdirection, He had to keep his eyes on the green lizards.

The snakes wee sentiment, so precision was a whole other entity as kogami was able to define friend from foe, there would be no mistakes of Yata using a body shield. Either way, his attention should be brought more towards kogami now. “ Oh, so you’re back for revenge ehhh? I knew you was going to show up, but the murdering party is a little bit late. I’ll play with you instead.

The sudden impact sent the group flying in different directions. Natashi and Kirito to one, and Anya to another. However, before Anya could gather herself, she was grabbed and sent into a tree with considerable force. Once she got a gather of the situation, she saw a burning hand coming towards her face. On instinct, she activated her iron maiden skin and grasped onto the attacker's forearm (that was holding her) to hold him still.

In the meantime, Kirito had gracefully flipped to her feet and removed her blade. Unlike Natashi, who had to actually stand up, she was already on the assault back towards the child. It seemed like there was never a moment of peace within the group. Someone's life was always on the line, which she should have figured. After all, why would there be any peace in this situation? Death was abound! "Anya, hold him still. I'll slice through him and his Persona!" The swordswoman spoke in confidence as she narrowed the distance. However, it didn't seem to be just her going after the attacker's head. Another strange being made of snakes arrived and seemed to be after him aswell? Well whatever, he was outnumbered. There was no way this one boy could take everyone. Even though the smoke coming from the boy was a hindrance, she figured once she unleashed her blades of wind, it'd be gone within an instant.

Natashi, on the other hand, crossed his arms and watched the scene. His attention more fell along the lines of Yatagarasu and not the rest of his team. Did he fear for Anya's safety? Yes, but there was something peculiar about this boy. He was in none of the records presented to him about Yachiru's facility, so where did he come from? Was he another new user that sprouted up this night? No, that couldn't be it, seeing how he had this much power so soon. Maybe he was a new test subject created from Yachiru? Maybe he was even a Shadow? This was rather confusing, to be quite honest, but this was notable intel. Yachiru had more up his sleeve than he previously imagined.

Sora's golden hues flashed towards Vera when she spoke. She seemed to be hesitating on attacking him? Maybe because Anya was there? Regardless, his toothy grin remained intact. More so because he could see two figures coming on the offense. One being the female who sat at the table, and another being some mess of something coming towards him from Vera's side. In this time, Anya had grasped onto his forearm and turned into what appeared to be some kind of metallic woman. What an annoying situation this turned out to be. One that gave Yatagarasu a cackle. His Persona seemingly exploded with flames outward, creating a plume of fire that propelled itself and Yatagarasu towards the skies. This was not only an attack, as the flames spread outward from their launch, but also an evasive maneuver to gain distance from the attackers. They were idiots if they believed he was going to allow them to surround him. If Anya continued to hold on, she would have been taken into the flames aswell. If she let go, she would have simply been sent back thanks to the sudden explosion. Regardless, with so much heat in one area, would Kogami's snakes be able to see properly? Considering at night, they used infrared to hunt their prey, and with so much heat in one area they'd virtually be blind.

With the blast of flames spreading outward, it'd head towards Kogami, Vera, Kirito, Anya, and Natashi. As it spread, it burned the grass and the trees in the area. All that would be left would be the flames that would spread for a radius of 15 meters. With Four's Blessing, Yata's own prowess in fire, and the fire amps and boosts, this was nothing. To only add the icing to the cake, the teen continued to hover over head with his Persona, now floating more than 25 meters up in the sky. His hand was still covered in flames, seeing how he did not use the attack upon Anya's skull. With the daggers around he forearm, he'd fire a blast of fire downwards. However, this would not be aimed for them but instead behind them. He'd literally burn the trees and grass behind them so they were forced between two walls of fire, attempting to give them no escape options. The space between the two walls of flames would be a measly 5 meters with no entrance or exit points.

"Cowards usually flock together. But you rats better know your place! Don't snap at a crow that soars through the skies, you pieces of shit!" The Arsonist continued to use the plumes of smoke and flames to stay high above the rest of the group. From this vantage point, it seemed appropriate for him to start dropping bombs on the rest of the group. Little did they know this was his home field advantage. So many things to burn around them, so little time. And the more he burned, the less oxygen they'd have to breathe. They be smothered by smoke and sent to an early grave. He wondered if any of them had strong enough skills to put out his advanced flames. At this point, they'd be dead before his time limit was up. Haha! Yes! And with them dead, Four could finally rest in peace! Rest in peace while these bastards would be resting in pieces!

As Kogami came running back, Mir was surprised for a moment, but immediately ran, albeit not as fast as he could... though, what she found surely wasn't the expected outcome. What. The.

"What the fuck..?!" Those words that came out of Jaqli's mouth in a low tone just before her eyes turned blank, a pure pool of blue instead of their usual lively ones. She was pissed. She knew this was bullshit for her to try to do, but damn, if she could do something, she was going to try. In a flash, Nyx appeared behind her as she jumped by stomping the ground hard, her Persona forming an icicle under her as she landed on it, and immediately shooting it aiming right at Yatagarasu who was still in the air. The attack itself wouldn't do much, it may even get melted away, but it brought her close even if she had to jump (and she would, if needed) and, as soon as she was in close enough range, about one meter, which should only be a few seconds at most...

"That's enough, Yatagarasu!"

With a force potent enough to tear down a steel wall, Mir aimed and threw a quick punch right at his chest, that he should not see coming unless he was already focusing on her and her Persona as they came in, as the icicle was shot immediately after being made, and the faint light emitted from the Persona summoning would be obviously drowned out from the fire around them. Her Orgia Mode allowed her to do one thing and one thing only to the Wild Crow, knock him off the air. As long as she could get him away from the others, that was fine, because she didn't care about herself. Even with her smaller speed, her attack was certainly sudden and unexpected maybe to everyone but Kogami, and was covered by the flames, if nothing else, so the hit should go through regardless unless Yatagarasu's reaction speed was way faster than any regular human's or ASSW's.

Strength Used:

Wherever she landed, Nyx would immediately fly to cover her in her wings, even going through the fire and taking a hit if that's what it meant, but the Persona immediately jumped to rescue Mir. If Yatagarasu attempted to use his Persona or his soulbound weapon to block against the hit, then it would simply faze through as this wasn't Jaqli's Weapon, but her pure physical fists, unadulterated by nothing other than Orgia Mode.

This went from bad to worse in just a couple of seconds. With the arrival of Kogami and the two other females going on the attack, it meant Yatagarasu would respond in kind. Vera immediately backed off and just in time, as torrents of flame shot from the hothead. She was suspectable to flames, and she knew this. Wasting no time, she'd push herself to her feet and fall back away from the flames coming their way. The dull pain of summoning a Persona would shoot through her skull, and Laverna would appear in a red mist immediately. The Tainted Persona danced above the young Thief, and a frost would begin to spread throughout the area, coating the people, flames and the surrounding courtyard. This frost was strong enough to even calm the flames from Yatagarasu and his spitfire Persona from above. However, she did not use this as an offensive strategy, more as a defensive one. They went on the complete offensive not considering the situation they were in. If her hypothesis about Yatagarasu was correct, even if they could have brought him down; they'd have to deal with Mikoto immediately after. She didn't wish to drag this battle on and attract any of Mikoto's allies in the tower either; such as the blonde young man.

Once the torrents of flames were doused, and the area surrounding them was covered in ice, the young Thief would yell upwards towards the Crow. "Yatagarasu, stop this already! We're not your enemy! You know what kind of people we are! Stop lashing out like you don't have a mouth to talk about what happened in there!" For once, the young woman had some emotion in her voice. She had been surrounded by death for too long, and this situation wasn't even orchestrated by them. Would they fight to the death over Yachiru's ambitions? Did that man have so much power over their lives to where they'd kill each other so easily? She couldn't accept that. Infact, he made her mad.

Vera's violet eyes caught notice of a object heading towards the airborne hothead, and she'd throw her knives on reaction. Using her abilities of remote control, she'd set them on the direct trajectory to reach the person before they'd reach Yatagarasu. When the knives reached them it'd stab through their clothes and forcefully pull them off to the side so their attack towards the flying Crow would miss completely and keep them safe from a counter attack. Hopefully she'd have a way of landing safely. This was getting way too hectic.

"Everyone, stand down. Don't return the hostility for now or this will only keep escalating. Look at the situation we're in. Read the environment; this isn't the time or place for a showdown." The Ice Princess would speak low so only they could hear her, and not Yatagarasu. However, her eyes never left him.

A Valentine's Purpose [Natashi] Tumblr_mpsliwswrD1qaoznho1_500

With that said, she'd step forward and cross her arms. "If you want an eye for an eye, that doesn't mean you attack everyone. Someone was taken from you, right? You want revenge? Then kill me and have it. Kill me, and promise you'll never harm any one of my friends here. Is that a deal?" Vera narrowed her eyes upwards towards the arsonist who was so willing to kill. She didn't wish to lay her life down for the others, but she was interested in his resolve to kill. "I will not defend myself. But I must also ask, would the person you lost really want you to go on a vendetta for their sake? Would they be happy to know you gave the remainder of your life murdering others as some act to try and help them in the after life? You're smarter than that, Yatagarasu! Atleast tell me what happened, and you have my word as a Valentina that I'll find a solution to your troubles. If I cannot, then you can kill me right then and there!" There, she gave him an offer. Surely he'd take it, right? Hopefully. If he didn't, then this courtyard would turn into a battlefield. If that happened, there was a chance the Kings would also arrive and get involved in the battle. Did they want to risk that? He was already an issue to begin with. Ugh, her pessimistic thoughts were coming out. She figured this wouldn't work, and they'd all be dead before the night was over...

Just like that soki chick, here you have some confident asshole looking down on Kogami once more. It seems that he isn’t spared of that. His snakes had a hard time of seeing and acting on their own, which kind of means that he would have to annually control them for the time being, due to the intense heat. Though, Vera’s actions towards someone that was trying to burn them up only pissed him off. Here he was, bound by a moral code to protect this girl, and yet she was caring about someone else who had no concern for her whatsoever?

“Shut the fuck up Vera, nobody’s going to die today! Nobody but him, and especially not you! You………..grrrrrr!!!” Kogami kept hating himself, hating everyone, as it continued to be a resource of fuel for him somewhat. The pain generated from his anger, being vera’s unlikely protector that she didn’t ask for, needed, and neglected. “ Your full of shit, willing to throw your life away for nothing, just get lost, I’ll do this alone.”

He decided to take it out on Sora instead. When it came to dodging, his sentiment snakes were quick to take up the initiative as he used them to travel around the field, sending a few of them to latch on to some trees to the left of him and tug him out of the way with their retraction. The snakes were up on the uptake, keeping kogami moving. Though, while his snakes were busing handling the dodging portion, Koga summoned Chaos Raiza while Yatagaratsu was still airborne, Raiza firing off a massive array of missile like spikes at the airborne area of Yata, which could clear up the pumes and smoke while serving as an attack, however risky it may seem. Atleast it would eliminate a bit of his cover of somewhat, and it should be considered as a double edged sword if he himself cant see through the pumes of smoke and aren’t hindered by it. Good thing Vera was nice enough to clash anyway, he didn’t have to pick up Mir’s slack. "Yo Sora, i'm the one who killed her. 4 right? That king we fought, it was me, don't be a pussy and beat up other people when the guy you want is right in front of your face.

"Alright Alright, children, that is enough." Natashi would dust off his suit from the mixture of smoke and ice that came from the clashing of elements. Kirito had regained her footing from the earlier explosion of flames, and Anya was currently laying on the ground in slight pain from the flames that came her way. It appeared this was retribution for something that had happened in the tower. Most likely involved with defeating the King that was on the Third Floor. Well, even though he did not know who this flaming child was, he could tell he was acting out all for a friend. Natashi would place a gloved hand on his jaw and give a slight smile at the circumstance. This was the same situation he found himself in the past. Though in his case, the friend was Souka. This case, the friend being some other King for this young boy.

The Older man watched Vera walk out and try to reason with the hothead, which he was surprised to see. Especially since she seemed so distant compared to everyone else. What connection did these two have with one another? They seemed to be complete opposites: one born from flames and the other of ice. Yet, she attempted to understand where his hate came from? Haha, that was very surprising of a young woman who was aligned with the God of Discord. Atleast, some would call him. Natashi was interested in seeing where this would go. Would this boy, seemingly named Yatagarasu, attempt to take her life? This was an answer the older man wished to see. Though, it appeared her friends didn't wish to see that. The rowdy one was already on another assault towards Yatagarasu. This caused Natashi to sigh and press his glasses upward upon his face. He hadn't planned on using this new power of his until he fought Souka with Aburai, but it seemed he couldn't wait any longer. He really wished to see that answer..

"Persona..!"

The tarot card of the tower would float before Natashi before shattering and revealing a ghost like figure that resembled the Smiling Mask. If any of the older Personas users were near, they'd see a familiar skill they hadn't seen since their own encounter with the "Smiling Mask", that year ago. To be frank, he was an asshole. Some of that was Natashi, but not all of it. He did learn, however; that some of the Mask's ability stayed with him. Perhaps because he wore it for so long, it helped him unlock his own potential over time. Regardless, a massive clock would appear above the battlefield and all would seem to be still. Suddenly a large explosion would erupt in the center of the battlefield between the group and Yatagarasu, sending both parties a distance away from each other from sheer force.

"Calm yourself, Kid. Allow him to answer her plee. I'm interested to see where this goes." The Persona had already subsided as Natashi placed a hand on his side and spoke with a calm tone. It wasn't fully revealed what it was exactly, but it was to be known that Natashi did have the abilities he had that year ago. Perhaps even stronger than before. "Everyone has their moments of rage, but that doesn't mean that's who they really are. I'm speaking from experience here, after all. That year ago I wanted to kill you all, now here I am working with you. Same with Aburai. Things change, and time heals." The Man would give a carefree smile before shrugging his shoulders and looking to the side. "Anyway, let's see where this goes before you get your panties in a bunch, okay?"

When his flames began to die down, the flying anarchist would give an annoyed growl. Of course the person strong enough to counter him would be her of all people. She seemed proactive into stopping the situation here. His eyes followed her motion, throwing her daggers outwards to catch one of the more foolish losers who was flying into the air towards him. She spouted nonsense about how they weren't his enemies and how they should be talking about this. The hell did she want to talk about? They WERE enemies, right? They were the ones to force them to become enemies! He saved their asses in that alt reality, and now they repaid his kindness by killing Four? The thought made him even madder, and it showed this by how his Persona began to burn even brighter. What pissed him off from this the most was his own talent of reading body language. She was being sincere. She was fucking serious!

What came next confused him even more. Take her life in exchange for Four's? That was a proposition he was not expecting. Would killing Ms. Violent make him feel better about Four's death? No, she obviously had nothing to do with it so killing her wouldn't help. But thinking about it, the others seemed to revolve around her to a certain extent. Killing her would most likely depress them to say the least. That's the kind of pain he wanted them to feel, so taking her up on the offer could be beneficial! ..Until she continued on to say how she'd assist him to the best of her abilities in regards to Four. Could Vera somehow revive her? Four was a machine, and her plume of dusk was still with him. Could she really be brought back? Souka may have not been able too, but maybe she knew someway? Was he that gullible? Not really, but he was rather hopeful.

He was ready to give his answer before he saw Kogami begin to spout some nonsense regarding Vera to shut the fuck up. The skater narrowed his eyes at this and watched the man. He was becoming more intune to how this freak could move.

Sora made sure to remain well aware of the others below him, but his attention was mostly on Kogami at this point. Instead of staying stationary, he'd begin to shoot off in a random pattern to make it hard for the other to lock onto him. With his own strengths, zipping through the skies was next to nothing for him, and it'd take a special person to fight him on his own terrain.

He'd split from his Persona, sending Sol Invictus to the right in the sky while steering himself more left, creating an acute angle with Kogami in the dead center. The spear attack that Kogami attempted to fire at him was a nice try, however; with Sora's adaption to the battlefield, plus his own speed, he'd have to try abit harder to land a solid blow. Especially since he was firing upward towards an opponent who's main strength was in the sky.

The teen would attempt to perform his own move before a sudden explosion would send him flying suddenly into the sky and towards the tower, out of view. "Guah-..!" Would be the only thing he could say when being sent flying at such force suddenly into the night sky. His Persona shattered by the sudden explosion aswell, returning to him almost immediately. Yatagarasu hit the wall of the tower and bounce upward into the sky. At this point, he knew he was in over his head unless he decided to play his trump card. Atleast now he knew Kogami was the one who killed Four. So, in time, he'd be the one to kill Kogami. It was that simple. Fighting everyone else right now? He'd pass. More trouble than it was worth..!-

Or was that just his excuse not to take Vera's life? Regardless, Yatagarasu immediately re-entered the tower to join back up with his fellow Kings. Atleast he had a face and a name to give them for the death of Four. Three would be extremely happy to hear this. He'd be the one to kill Kogami, but he'd accept help if it came to capturing the bastard.

-Exit unless one of you try to stop me. Then feel free.

This would be the time where she would fall behind. Very irritating indeed. As she approached the front, she would see a familiar red-haired kid leaving, along with everyone else approaching the front, including Natashi and the gang. She looked up to see the man leaving, before looking at the team. “Are you hurt?!” She said, looking upon the Misfits to check on them, before running to Kogami, Vera and Mir who were clearly the ones just fighting with them, seeing as how ice now coated the nearby area, and much of the actual land was damaged from an explosion which wasn’t at all hard to hear when on the way to the tower. This upset her. She should have been here to help them. Again, she failed. This could not be going on. Buckling down was in order, but the time for insecurities was not now. She put on a serious face as she looked at them. “Did he attack you? That man….we saw him inside our world before…” this raised so many questions. What just transpired here? An answer would be lovely right about now, but the more important matter was whether they were alright or not. She made sure to watch the sky and the tower itself to see if anything was coming down for another round. She didn't want to have more to deal with.
