Combat Over - You May continue

Shuffle Time:

"Damnation... what were we talking about? Ah, right... Wizard of Oz, yes. It's a weird movie, but it's a classic. It's about a girl who ends up in a strange world after a hurricane strikes her home town, and she needs to visit the Wizard of this world, incidentally called Oz, in order to figure out how to get back home. Along the way, she finds some buddies, yadda yadda yadda, the most classic of friendship adventure stories. Kinda cheesy when you think about it. Though, my reference was that the girl has to follow a yellow brick road to get to the Wizard, and following that road would mean she wouldn't get lost on the way... damn, that was a mouthful." At least, Rita hoped Sharaku understood. It was a damn long speech, that was for sure. Regardless, after setting her whip aside once more, Rita brought out Hou-ou again, stretching for a split second before starting to run again... this time a bit slower since the entrance seemed to be fairly close. She just hoped there wasn't anything else before they could reach their destination.

Rita tapped her chin for just a moment, thinking. "Alright then. Once we're done with this mission, I'll go check up on the town myself. Though, probably only tomorrow or something... I'd like to make sure nothing else is going on before coming here." Sharaku had a point. If they had Personas, that meant they had at least a bit of resistance against the storm... she just hoped it was enough, that was all. After all, Rita noticed how just a bit of time immersed in this weather was starting to tire her out, with the only solution she found to it being Sharaku's healing capabilities. She also had her own, but nothing so widespread as his...

"Mostly, having it out just means I can react faster. Instead of taking that split second of time to summon Hou-ou, I can simply attack right away. Though, being able to call him out in a wink is beneficial too. Can't argue against a good surprise tactic." Her style wasn't inherently based off of the element of surprise, she was more apt to immediately getting the upper hand through her speed and power. In conclusion, Rita just chose to overwhelm the enemy more often than not. It suited her, so she did it, simple as that.

Movement:

He understood her, yes, but he couldn’t say he found the description alone entertaining. Not really. It was just the simple...something happens, and you have to get to point B to solve it. There we go. It would depend on how it was made, but he had a feeling he would find it mostly boring. Or at the very least, something he could get easily distracted from. And there isn’t much point to watching a move when you’re constantly paying attention to something else, is there? In any case, his brain wasn’t really tuned into movie discussions at the moment, so it was hard to tell. He’d have to consider once he had the mindset to think it over properly. Maybe. ‘’Seems rather linear to me. I’d probably get distracted by something else while watching that. A yellow brick road is a little out of place compared to the rest of it, though. It doesn’t really make sense to me. Then again…they don’t make movies to make sense…’’ And..he didn’t know what was he even getting at anyway. Whatever, let’s just move for now. He’d rather focus on the matter at hand than debate about movies. Not while they were in a dangerous place. And frankly, that storm was rather distracting. It’s hard to think when stuff is swirling around you, and attempting to cut you apart.

He would snort lightly. ‘’I’m pretty sure this won’t be an easy battle. You’re most likely going to be a bit too exhausted to go running back in tomorrow to deal with people. Assuming nothing else would have to get done before that.’’, he would state nonchalantly. ‘’I’d probably focus on not getting owned by the Angel here, and decide whether it is possible to come back soon after we’re done.’’ It wasn’t that he thought they would lose. No, he wasn’t planning on that. Still, he just liked to look at things from both sides. And loss was just as much of a possibility as a win. Nothing was ever certain. The storm was a new element already, when compared to what he had seen at Zela. For all they knew, this Angel would be far worse than what went on with Israfel. One can expect anything nowadays.

‘’You can. Assuming he is close enough to attack at the given moment. Both strategies can prove to be good, just as well as bad, I’d say.’’, he would smile thinly. ‘’So whatever works for you. Just be careful in cases where a big flaming bird can draw unnecessary attention. That could be the worst downside of having him out all the time.’’ Or so it seemed. But in the end, it was her call. He couldn’t deny that with the visibility right now, due to the storm and all, it wasn’t that big of a deal. But in a different situation, it just might end up being.

The path led them all the way to the top of the volcano, it opening to a large plain of dirt and steady rock covered in weird purple veins that pulsed a dense black liquid, and in the middle, a large crater, that emanated immense heat from it as the veins seemed to seep in and into the lava which was only a few meters or so from the edge. The storms were heavier, but even in them, one could see the strange bubbles of molten rock in a blackish color float near the top, like something beneath was bringing air to the top. It was probably normal for a volcano to have that feature, only odd sounds came from each bubble when they burst. It was a sound of grumbling from something indescribable. Was it a monster's growl, or a natural element making a noise? What could be done to set this right? More importantly, what was lurking around here? A clear presence of intensity was coming from the volcano. With each movement near it, the killing air became more and more thick. What could be beneath the molten depths of Malstu, a world that affected the island they themselves came from?

"Hmmm... well, now that we're here, I think we can save the talk for later." Rita stepped onto the dirt at the top, observing the scenery carefully... strange, to say the least. While she couldn't decide what to make of... anything, really, the silvernette's attention was brought to the center of the crater itself.

"Alright... should we see what's in the center or do we just wait for something to come out?" Rita entrusted Sharaku with this one. If he said that they should investigate, she'd move towards the center and peer into it for just a moment before backing off, flinching slightly so she wouldn't get pummeled with lava in her face should something actually come out of it while she was doing so. If Sharaku decided to wait, she'd do just that... wait. Nothing much else to do in this situation, after all.

''I suppose so.'' Sharaku would mutter absentmindedly, as he looked around. This place didn't look so good. It was a little different than what went on at Zela. Then again, this was a volcano. Rather different from a desert. He sure wouldn't want to fall into the lava for whatever reason.

He would blink, looking at Rita briefly. ''If you feel like risking it, go ahead.'' She was free to investigate the crater if she wanted to. Maybe there was something of importance to be seen. Though, his attention was more taken by the purple veins around. That was something he'd seen at Zela too. Back then, Israfel appeared after Sentinel attempted to cut those in half...Hmm. Would it be the same here? Or not? That was the question. The crater sure seemed like the more likely center of the problem, but one never knows. He would frown a little. ''Back at Zela, the Angel appeared after we tried to cut off those veins. But I have no idea whether it works the same way here.'', he'd state, nodding towards the purple stuff. This one was up to her. He didn't know whether she saw something in the crater or not.

When Rita came closer to the edge, the lava seemed to rise as though resonating with her presence. With the rise of lava,a certain aura wafted from within, emanating a sort of rage or passion of sorts. Whatever was inside, it seemed like a chaotic source was trying to break out of the lava itself. The veins continued to pump the liquid into the lava, as though nothing was amiss.

Okay... "So we have to break those veins, then? Fair enough. Hou-ou!" Rita moved to her right side, summoning her sword and slashing at whatever actual veins could be there, while Hou-ou did the same on the left side, only lashing at them with his talons instead. He couldn't exactly use his claws as anything useful for fighting just yet, but they had to at least be sharp enough to burst some little tubes, no? They better. Regardless, if not, Rita would simply go around cutting the veins herself... while being careful to keep away from the lava pit in the center. She didn't want to be immediately hit with whatever was coming out of there when she was done.

It was a dangerous move to cut them while being so close, for every time she sliced open a vein, she would be shot across her body with the black ooze, which stunk of a dark scent, and felt warm to the touch. It didn't seem dangerous at first, but when she cut, she noticed that the storms were starting to hurt her even more, along with her skin turning purple in various places. Had the ooze made her sensitive to the energies around her? This may make her future endeavors harder, but what she was doing was making an impact nonetheless, as every cut she made along with her Persona, the lava began to bubble more, and rise higher, until finally a quake sounded underneath the magma. Something was aggravated underneath...and soon, a large arm burst through the lava, it covered in molten rock and harden stone formed from the inside of the flames. Soon following, a monstrosity erupted from the lava up until part of its lower body was left, soaking within the heated rock.

It was....humongous, gargantuan, incredibly immense. The rest of its body was under the lava, but what did that make it when the upper body, arms and head of this beast towered over Rita and Sharaku? It reached over twenty feet tall, and its arms easily could grab a hold of the edges of the volcano. It eyed the two that disturbed it, and opened its mouth, letting out a low growl as hot and bright as the sun, drops of lava spitting from it passing the two, not hitting them, but the proximity of it being enough to singe their skin, and burn parts of their hair. In that mouth however, a golden liquid seemed to leak from inside, dropping into the heat below, quite unlike what may have been expected. Was something inside, waiting to burst out? They could in fact feel a strong light, unlike the harsh heat of the monster, it actually felt like the similar feeling they felt earlier, holding silent passion. Could whatever was inside be broken free like Sharaku did to free the Angel Israfel? Well, first they would have to survive the great beast, born of a corruption and soon to give a whole new meaning to the festival of the "Silent Mountain"...

PvS Combat Has begun - An Angel Has Been Corrupted, Press X to Not Die...

Primordial Storm:

Corrupted Angel:

Well... that was just awesome. If Rita was being shot with the liquid that corrupted things, shouldn't she be taking LESS damage from this storm? It wasn't like she cared, exactly, not when there was something else that needed to be done. Best to try and get rid of this... beast, as soon as possible.

"All right... I'll heal myself, Sharaku, go ahead and damage it." The silvernette backed up, running behind her partner. As she did so, she brought out a small jelly-like foodstuff, quickly putting it in her mouth and chewing on it. This'd at least help her get back into shape for the battle, even if she had to be continuously healing herself.

The Ice attacks did not seem to make the monster any happier, and to show it, lava began to leak out of its body, and soon, it would bellow over and then lift its head up, unleashing a torrent of flames upon the two. The flames scarred the earth around them, turning it all black and leaving ash behind. The attack seemed to sear the very air, making it a bit more painful to breathe up here. It eyed the two closely, looking down upon them as though it wanted to smash them as soon as possible.
