Heh, Mir couldn't help but smile as she spoke of her sister. Being a... well, what one would usually define as a single daughter. No siblings... hell, not even a biological father. The smile faded with the talk of her mother, though, and the android just patted her shoulder. "Family problems are always tough, but hey, we have to keep going anyway, right? I'm sure your mom is proud of you, wherever or whoever she is. Heh, look at me being cheesy..." She let out a smirk and shook her head. This was unusual of her, that was for sure. Mir didn't usually like giving those... motivational things. She always thought they were bullshit made to make others feel better. But now? How could she say anything else to Rinne? Sure, that's what everyone said...
Jaqli thought for a moment about the description, closing her eyes. Well, that certainly matched the description of two people she met in her world... so Rinne was related to that Naito person. Figures. "Hmmm... I'm not quite sure. It isn't like it's completely strange, but at the same time, it doesn't quite do anything for me. I dunno, honestly, but I can keep trying." Mir scratched the back of her head, opening her eyes back up as her mouth twitched slightly in discomfort. When it came to lying, she was... probably one of the best. But hey, her memory was gone, something like this would just incite regret over not being able to remember anything, and that's exactly what it looked like.
The android would do a double take once Rinne opened the door, though, blinking at all that happened right in front of her. Well then... okay. "A-ah, yes... sorry for the intrusion, Tsurinai-san, I don't mean to be a bother to either of you. I hope we can get along as well." Fairly uncharacteristically, Mir bowed to the younger sister. She... certainly had an imposing air to her, and that reflected onto the android. Well... mostly, she just didn't want to get on her bad side out of respect for Rinne. Hell, this was the least she could do, right?

Needless to say Faith felt rather high and mighty with the newcomer bowing to her. The innocent looking princess would cross her arms and smile. "All is forgiven, Trini. Just be sure not to be a bother to my sister. She's very important, you know?" Faith was willing to go into a lecture on how important her older sister was, but Rinne would pat her on the head with a smile. "That's enough, Faith. I'm going to go prepare a bath for our guest. Can you keep her company for the time being?"
Rinne was cautious to leave the two young women alone at first, but she knew Faith was well behaved even if she had her moments. The older sister had no idea where her younger sibling got this fascination with her, but she couldn't help but be quite flattered at it. She had never been a role model to anyone else, so having someone look up to her felt sort of nice in its own way. She would leave to go prepare the bath with a thin smile on her face, leaving the two girls to their lonesome.
Faith went back to the table to take a seat before looking at the young woman. "So Trini, what brings you here as our guest? How long have you known my sister? Where did you meet her? How do you address her? Do you like my sister? Does she like you?" The younger sister had pulled out a notepad seemingly from nowhere, reading down a list of questions as if her she had prepared them a previous date just for this occasion.

The android would give a lopsided smile to the response... yay? She honestly didn't know how to feel, but she was fairly happy. "Of course she is, I can only imagine how important she must actually be to you. I'll do my best not to cause you any trouble, I promise." Surprisingly, this was... very uncharacteristic for Mir. Her smile was genuine, though, and her attitude too. She guessed it was just something about Faith that made her get like that... a feeling of authority? Maybe. Obligation to not cause Rinne any actual trouble? Yeah, most likely that. Aaah, the things she could say.
Mir just nodded to Rinne's comment, appreciating the sentiment. Really, there shouldn't be much to worry about... even if what happened next almost made Jaqli want to laugh. Instead, she smiled, though.
"Are you writing it down? Okay, in order, then... first off, I'm here because I have no other place to go, I... don't remember what exactly I was supposed to do before getting here. I've known her for about a day now? How long has it been? I haven't been keeping track of time, but I'd say around a full daytime cycle right now. Not 24 hours, though. I met her on a field of grass... for some reason. I just woke up there and she found me. I address her just as I address you, as Tsurinai-san. And now, finally... I refuse to answer the second to last question and I have no idea about the last one." She stuck her tongue out slightly. This was funny. Now this was actually something Mir found genuinely funny, that's why she entertained it like she did. Though, there was a reason she refused to answer one, she didn't particularly like Rinne more than anyone else, but if nothing else, she had some attachment to the girl. Eeeh, regardless. She was probably too young. Then again, with the body she had, Mir was most likely the one who looked younger... hah. If only that was the case. She wished she was fifteen again!

This woman was polite. Alittle too polite. Faith had her suspicions of her intentions with her sister. It could have been some premonition or her siscon ways just going out of whack. Regardless, her clear blue eyes were like daggers as she stared Trini down. When it came to the questions being answered, Faith jotted down some notes while listening intently. Maybe this woman would mess up during her explanations she thought. However, hearing how they met and that romantic like scenario made the little girl bite the page with red cheeks. Then not getting the answer about if she liked her caused the smaller child to stand on her chair and point to Mir. "What do you mean you will not answer? As our guest staying here, I demand an answer! Or is it safe to assume you do, infact, like my sister? Well she's spoken for, you know!" As she said this the entire room began to shake which caused her to fall out the chair and onto her butt with a bounce.
Alarms started to sound within the entire building, including their room, warning them of an emergency. It didn't take long for Rinne to run from the bath into the main room. "Oh no, this is happening again? Another attack from the Crimson Flag. I have to get moving! The Captain will need me!" Without another word, Rinne rushed out the door and down the hallway. Faith stood to her feet and ran to the door after her, but by the time she made it to the hallway her sister was already out of sight. The small blonde, who previously looked so tough, would give a small sniffle as she sat at the door and waited.
Meanwhile, outside the building, a figure cloaked in red would be standing out in the courtyard. They seemed to make their home by the fountain as they began to draw a number of figures in the air. A summoning circle would soon form and begin to shatter as a number of tamed demons began to close in on their position. In a flash of light, the demons would be utterly killed and vanquished before the cloaked figure. It would appear their own demon was much stronger than any the Azure Flag could conjure. It was Captain class, of course.
Rinne would appear onto the scene with only seconds to spare. Meeting her at the doorway outside was her bike which would double as her summoning device. Jumping upon it, she would rev the engine and make her way to the courtyard. Almost immediately, Atsuki would begin to speak to her through the device.
"Rinne, it appears our visitor is back. Something seems quite odd. Their demon is much more powerful than before. I'd reckon to say it's even Captain class. Do you think you can handle it, or do I need to help you directly?" Make no mistake, the Captain was no coward and he was always willing to get his hands dirty. However, the Azure Flag had their own ways of handling situations than the Crimson Flag. The Captain only got involved when absolutely needed. Even if Atsuki wanted to drop all his duties and assist, he could not unless absolutely needed. This situation seemed close to one of those specific situations, but Rinne would shake her head. "No Captain, please just assist. I will be your sword as always." The man could only give a solemn nod as a response.
When the cloaked Demon Summoner saw the young female heading their way on her motorcycle, they'd place a hand on their chest. Even though one could not see beneath the cloak, they were surely smiling. "Could the Captain not come out and greet me? I've been dying to see him again, that Atsuki-chan. But Tsurinai-chan, you'll do nicely as a deep fried appetizer, hehe." As the figure said this, the demon would show itself in a blaze of fire and brimstone to cut off her path.

Mir was about to answer the question, actually, if the alarm hadn't sounded... "Sorry, Tsurinai-san. I'll give you a more definite answer later." As she saw Rinne come out, Mir too propped herself onto her feet, running into the hallway. She didn't need explanations, something was wrong and she at least had to give her assistance if Rinne was going as well... unfortunately for her, she couldn't exactly keep up that well. She'd follow behind, at least seeing where Rinne went, but the android paced behind several speeds as she took small breaks to catch her breath... damn this body, not being made for running.
Mir at least made it outside to see Rinne get onto her bike, hopefully, and the Captain speaking to her. "Damn it..." Muttering that, Jaqli continued running at her top speed, which wasn't that high, to at least reach the two, huffing. "Atsuki-san, sorry for the intrusion... I can try and help here, please allow me to assist!" With a twirl of her right hand, a large spear appeared next to her, held tightly by the android's grip. Hopefully she wasn't too too late, but it seemed Rinne was already next to the perpetrator... Mir followed suit if she was allowed... well, regardless of whether she was allowed or not, really, and simply continued on.
"This is an emergency... come, I need your help!"
For just a split second, a large figure would appear behind Mir as she ran and stab its sword into the ground, freezing the ground into a smooth path directly leading to where Rinne and the... demon, she guessed, were. Taking advantage of this, Mir simply slid on the ice, bringing a heel up and smashing it into the ground to stop herself as soon as she was there. Nyx would disappear just with that one motion, taking no more than a second to appear and disappear.
"What an ugly bastard... You little punk, what the hell are you doing?!" Her words weren't directed at Rinne as she spoke fearlessly at the demon in front of her and its summoner. Honestly, Mir didn't even care about showing her Persona or her soulbound anymore, Rinne was in danger and apparently, this called for definite help.
"Sorry to come so suddenly, Tsurinai-san. You have my help for this, I can at least do this to aid you." Trinni furrowed her brow, glaring at the beast with a face that could only be described as pissed. Now, then... she wanted to rock.

"Rinne, after this is over..." The young man spoke a few words to this "sword" before another voice came across the transmission. He recognized it as the newcomer. "You're... I forgot your name, I apologize. You see, I command all of the Azure Flag here at this base camp, and give them all various orders. I have no time to command those who are not of the Azure Flag. Thus meaning, I have no control over you. If you wish, you can do as you like. I cannot stop you if you want to protect your friend." In layman's terms, the Captain gave the female free reign to do whatever she wished. He had only hoped it only came to assisting Rinne and not doing anything reckless that could endanger her life. How he wished he could charge in headstrong like that. In moments like these, he envied the reckless antics of the Crimson Flag's Captain. But if it weren't for him, then there would be no conflict between the two groups. These attacks from Azame were more odd if anything. He was a man that would come himself, not send mere assassins in the night to do the job for him. Why the sudden change?
Rinne was surprised to see Trini had followed her out on the battlefield. The young summoner would wave her hands. "Trini, I didn't know you had a similar power to my Mother and Father! But regardless, it's too dangerous here. If you were hurt, I wouldn't know how to forgive myself." The young female attempted to plea with her guest to turn back. For some reason, she felt self sacrificing for anyone who would have the title as a "guest" to her. Little did Rinne know this was a trait she acquired from her biological Mother.
The cloaked individual watched the two while laying on their side on the fountain base. "Well, if the Captain isn't coming out then I guess I'll have to deal with you two first. Though..." The cloaked individual looked towards Trini as their demeanor seemed to stiffen quite abit. "What is one of your types doing here? Don't you belong on the frontlines of war if you have access to a Persona? Are you hiding from your responsibilities..? No matter, I'll turn you to mulch here. Have fun being demon chow~!" The cloaked figure laughed as they rolled off the fountain and ran from the scene.
"Son of Man, I am Tenkaii. I will return all back to the Crimson Flame as my Master so desires. Do give us a show!"
-------------------------
Rinne sighed to herself. It seemed no matter the situation, Trini was surely dragged into this battle. She looked towards her partner and would give a nod as if telling her to prepare herself. On the intercom of her bike, Atsuki began to speak once more. "Okay you two, this may be a Captain class Demon, but I have every hope that you two will succeed here. Well, not just hope. Statistically speaking, the odds of numbers favors us. Newcomer, you're new to this I presume, so let me explain some things to you. Rinne, I'm counting on you to do as well as always."
OoC Combat:
Combat is abit different in this reality. Unlike the Persona style combat in our side plot, this reality is more inclined with the roots of SMT, which inturn, will have a SMT type battle style.
Turn = your post*
This means both sides get four attacks during each of their turns. These four attacks are seen as separate actions within a single post. If you crit or hit a weakness, you gain an extra attack allowing you to post once again with another attack before the enemy can have their turn. If you miss an attack you lose two actions. If the enemy absorbs or blocks your method of attack, you lose all of your actions that turn.
For example, let's say you're posting your turn. You have four actions you can take that single turn.
You attack first, then use an item, then attack for your third and fourth action. Let's say you crit your last two actions. You can now post again right after, performing two more actions because of the turns you crit on. The same goes for if you hit their weakness. Keep in mind the enemy also gets this same advantage.
When you do crit someone and you're allowed a second turn immediately after, it does not act the same as the first. This meaning if you crit again, it does not give you a third turn. Your turn ends there and the enemy or another NPC will be allowed to go.
If you're confused, PM and I will go into more detail and give examples.
After each of your turns, Rinne will also take a turn to assist you with her demons. You do not have control of her, and her actions will be completely randomnized. Once Rinne's turn is over, then the Tenkaii will make its own turn.

"Understood. For now, consider me an assistant, Atsuki-san." The android twirled her spear around for a moment or two before grasping it with her other hand and taking a stance, the same Persona from before appearing behind her. "Nyx, let's turn this thing into an ice cube." Mir's eyes glowed a dim purple from the summoning and her head in general shone blue. When Rinne addressed her, though, she smirked.
"So this is what a chosen one is? Alright then. Don't worry about me, I can handle something like this." Just as she spoke, Nyx lifted her long sword up into the air, swinging it in a fan shape in front of them to hit the demon. Honestly, Mir wasn't even sure of what the front lines really were. The man apparently knew of Personas, though. Interesting. "Are you daft? I don't even know what my responsibilities are. I've never been to the front lines, at least not from what I remember." She flicked her hair back, resuming her stance right away as she watched the guy escape... hah, coward.
"I'll go first now if you don't mind." After the attack from her Persona, Mir used her arm most at her back to make use of the spear's full reach and stab it into the demon twice, Nyx using this chance to also stab her sword into the thing again. She wasn't as strong with physical combat, but she had a greater opportunity to show off at the moment. After this was over, the Persona lifted her free hand up, showering the Weapon, and Rinne too, albeit she didn't think she needed it yet, with a warm green light, restoring their fatigue if they had any.
First action, using Cleave for 64 Slash damage if it hits.
Second action, using my Human Skill for 64 Pierce Damage twice if it hits.
Third action, another Cleave for 64 Slash damage, bla bla bla.
Fourth action, using Mediarama to heal back up to full. Just to make sure, my skills are costing one third more than they would because of a weakness. Apologies for forgetting it until now, hopefully this will keep it fresh in my mind from now on.
