Jin could hear and even sense that something was coming. He looked towards the direction of the fireball that was hurtling towards this bloodied-looking newcomer. But to his continuing surprise, there was an explosion and the katana-wielding girl had a Persona. And the look she provided definitely wasn't something Jin would think as genuinely benign.
He sighed upon lighting his cigarette and leaving it in his mouth. Jin never wanted to get into a fight, at least not this soon. There was information to crave for, but he would never get his hands on it right now. Or maybe he'll never will. And that Shi girl just left and just called him a hobo. How rude. What an annoyance.
"Hashashin."
The cloaked Persona appeared right by Jin's side as he stood right in front of the path that Shi took to escape. Whatever she had planned, hopefully it'll be something good for their side and for him. With its eyes gazing on the girl, information would be transmitted to all of his participating allies. He wouldn't attack right now. Getting too ahead of himself would be bad, after all. The sound of cracking his knuckles could be heard as he clenched his fists together to make the noise.

When the fire ball appeared, Kogami couldnt necessarily track the thing in the air. He didnt see it coming, it all happened too fast and it was a response of something going *Bang*, which made Kogami covered one side of his ear for a bit as he gritted his teeth. That was pretty annoying, he didnt like that too much. However, He noticed that the person in question was Rita, not necessarily having time to interact with her because she could of took a bit of damage from being knocked out of the sky like that
OOC: Sorry if im voiding what you said a minute ago and stuff, you took damage and idk if you would still react the same or not. anyway...
Kogami brought out his Persona and sucked hie teeth, hoping he could get some leverage and attack first. "A coward seeking her master like an abandoned puppy and some chick covered in someone else blood approaching me, not having it today. Since Kogami naturally resisted garu, he was sure that the blasts wont do too much to hinder him, his positioning was important. With that being said, Raiza fired off a darkened missile covered with a strange air current at the girl that was 7 meters in width and 14 meters in length. From the positioning of kogami and the second king, he moved three meters back, and she traveled back about one to two meters, perhaps 1.5 if she was backing up slowly without a care in the world. This missile attack would definitely get her attention as kogami being the immediate threat while the others came up with a makeshift plan and gather their bearings. Raiza fired from somewhat of an elevated distance, with the persona and its outreached hand giving it a controlled precision to avoid hitting the others. "Scatter! Dont clutter!" Koga would shout out, trying his best to cooperate despite his foul mood.

Vera watched from afar silently from the backside of the crowd within the brush. She knew about Kogami's ability to hear, so instead of being loud she steadied her breath and simply watched without any necessary noise. He was more focused on the Second King, who had went to take their attention, not herself. In terms of combat, the Ice Princess was more of a silent assassin, and she was no different from the Second King. She knew the Second King had a crippling weakness which was why she was teamed up with her. It seemed perfect now, considering there was a sacrifice looking to run from the fight. Since they were all focused on the Second King, this was perfect.
With a chilling breath, a frozen aura would suddenly shoot outward across the area. Its massive range would cover the entire battlefield for 40 meters, causing a winter wonderland where the opposing party stood to battle the King, and any of them who were trying to escape this situation. Vera had performed this ability while still in hiding, but seeing how the ability stemmed from her it'd easily be possible to tell where she was. So, without hiding anymore, she'd remove herself from the brush to cut off the running female looking to take this opportunity to escape. The Sixth King wouldn't say a word as a number of daggers appeared between each of her fingers.
A flash of her Persona could be seen behind her before digging down within the snow. However, it would do this after giving a sudden boost to its owner's abilities. Vera would continue to block off this exit, not really attacking but still not allowing anyone to escape. It reminded her of what she did those years ago during the Limbo trials. Apparently some things never changed. One thing was for sure. If they kept trying to run towards her, she would reciprocate in violence. Death wasn't the agenda, but she was already a killer. One more death on her conscious wouldn't bother her too much. As long as Yatagarasu and Mikoto wouldn't have to die.
Vera would extend her arms and throw a series of throwing knives towards the running girl, who was about 9 feet infront of her. The knives were more warning shots, as only one of them were aimed directly at her chest while the other two flew by without issue.
Human Skill Name: Valentine's Wonderland Persona Name: Laverna, Lost in the boon of Chaos Tier: Tier 4 Cost: 50 SP Type of Damage: N/A Description: A powerful Bufu skill that can change the environment entirely to suit the user's benefit. Once performing this skill, Vera will release an immense freezing aura from her body that spreads across the battlefield at an amazing rate outward to 40 meters. The environment within this area will become suddenly flash frozen and turned into a winter esc area. Fires will be put out if their Tier is not high enough to withstand the harsh temperature. All ice skills will be 30% stronger and even single spell ice skills can be treated as AoAs, not to mention each will have a 20% chance of causing a Frost bite ailment. Skills involved with flames will be 30% weaker when used within this environment. This environment will last for 5 posts before fading, and needing a 5 post cooldown before being able to be used again. As this skill comes from Vera, her Persona can use the ice and snow created for its own Bufu attacks on the fly. Others will still need to go through the proper channels to do their own.

Strengths & Weaknesses:
—Strength Name: Pickpocket —Description: Vera, being a member of a family of thieves, has a natural ability of sleight of hands. She can pickpocket with extreme ease to the point people won't even know she has taken something from them until much later when she's gone. This can happen from many ways, including bumping into the person or even sneaking behind a person.
—Strength Name: Acupressure —Description: Vera has the distinct ability of pinpointing pressure points on the human body and using them against her opponent. This allows her to defend herself against opponents who tower over her, as when a kunai is jabbed into a pressure point, that specific limb becomes numb and useless until the blade is removed.
—Strength Name: Lockpicker —Description: If it has a lock, she can most likely crack it. It comes with the family trade, and no good thief makes their weight in gold without breaking into a few homes or safes.
—Strength Name: Elusive —Description: Hiding in the shadows, blending into crowds, wearing various disguises, whatever is needed she will do to take her prize. Lucky for her, she is actually good at not being seen or easily spotted.
—Strength Name: Dexterous —Description: To be a proper thief, you must be quick with your hands, and precise. Vera is capable of catching falling objects, or objects thrown at her (as long as the eye can follow) and can throw them back with extreme precision. It was a gift she was born with that needed little to no training.
—Weakness Name: Psychological Disorder —Description: Vera has a problem to where long term memories are lost over time. This causes her to need to record everything she experiences in her life in a journal, as she'd lack any memory of her past exploits without documentation.
—Weakness Name: Pessimistic —Description: Vera believes if something bad can happen, it will happen and will become even worse. She has blinded herself from seeing the bright side of things, and will always expect a worst case scenario no matter the situation.
—Weakness Name: Extremely Fickle —Description: To be fickle is to be changing frequently. This can be in regards to loyalties, interests, and/or affection. In some cases she may even become bored of her current personality.
—Weakness Name: Follower —Description: She is not the leader type, nor does not strive to lead. Infact she is too fickle and may lead her team into death if she's placed in charge of anything. This forces her to follow the whims of others if she needs to work in a team.
—Weakness Name: Complete Philistine —Description: She is a person who is guided by materialism and is usually disdainful of intellectual or artistic values. She believes physical well-being and worldly possessions constitute the greatest good and highest value in life, thus making her take what she wants, when she wants it. People who believe in higher callings would never see eye to eye with her, as she believes what she can touch and feel is the only reality worth noting or acknowledging.

Well, this was troublesome. Now they were being attacked from both sides while the field was getting a little cold. She couldn't fight much herself, but she decided to at least provide some kind of support. Ruo began to retreat to the side, at an angle from both the King and the mysterious woman who froze the area. Of course she meant business and she doubted she herself could run away if the woman from before couldn't, so she only retreated about 20 feet away if the woman let her. If not she would only go about fifteen feet to keep distance, while her Persona Maya appeared behind her at an angle towards Vera, large and lumbering. She pointed a finger at 2nd King and soon their agility would be lowered to a degree. She already seemed very fast so even with that debuff Ruo herself could not do much, but hopefully others could.

"Gwaaah!" From the blast, Mir got up slowly, her head spinning. What the hell even happened? "Oh lord, was I directed at you? I'm sorry! I swear to God I didn't mean aim it that way, I couldn't even aim at all!" The android slowly got up with an apologetic face as she turned towards the woman. Damn, it was natural to be aggressive in such an environment, but that stuff hurt!
"Okay, okay, don't be alarmed, I know I must have startled some people... wait, who the hell are you guys?" Mir turned her head around for a split second to observe everyone, and only Kogami and that other chick were familiar faces. Lord, alright, this was just great. "Nyx." With a quick wind, the tall Persona formed behind her and raised a hand, bringing a shining light above just herself that brought her back up to snuff. Though she was startled by the sudden winter wonderland and the knife that shot out at the running girl. Well... if she weren't caught by the same kind of knife throw before, Mir could never figure this out.
"I'm guessing some of you aren't here to be friendly..."
Mir frowned and sighed as a long spear appeared from the sky and fell down next to her, being pierced into the ground. Quickly, she took it in one hand and twirled it around, getting into a stance. "I hate fighting in these clothes... but a certain crow didn't shoot me off to where I could change. Guess I need to take care of someone before I can go back and help him..." The android took her spear and quickly drew a semi-circle in front of herself, lifting the spear up to kick up some snow and dust with some force. It was minor, but she wasn't intending on attacking right now, just test the waters and set up some precautions...
Casting Mediarama on myself to bring me back to full health (on Nyx, so 90% Mediarama), then using a Dex attack to kick up some snow.

Well... Things couldn't get much worse. People were dropping in from multiple directions all at once, and Kogami even went as far as attacking... Before he even knew the other's intentions... "What the hell?! She didn't even attack us yet!" Sure, he wasn't too trusting of their bloodstained visitor either, but since he didn't know who she was, as long as she didn't make herself out to be an enemy, he wouldn't have assaulted her first. Not without knowing her intentions first. "God damn it..." Things were looking bad, there was no denying it.
"Hm?" The sudden snowfall and ice covering the area made Caestus look around quickly... Someone was causing all this. And it didn't make his situation in all this... Damn snow... "Brace yourselves... she's not gonna take this lightly..." He kept a watchful eye on both of them, getting ready for combat himself. Beowulf grunted restlessly. He wasn't planning on dying now. Not until he had secured what was waiting for him inside that tower!
"Not planning on dying here anytime soon."
He would move from his current position closer to Ruo, within arms length of her. Neither of them were going to die here. If only this damn snow and ice wasn't in the way he could do something... Well, keeping her safe from harm was the best option for now. Gentlemanly, right? Heh... This wasn't gonna go well for anyone involved. Kogami was on his own. He poked the bear. Now, he had to suffer the consequences.
The young woman repeated again and again. She made no change in stance from the sudden Winter Wonderland that shot past her and stretched on for more than twenty meters. Infact, her Persona seemed more heated up than anything. The otherworldly figure began to punch the ground repeatedly as if out of anger. However, stemming from its fists, a number of explosions started to spread outwards towards the ground before her. One explosion after the other continued; causing ear popping "bangs" in the air around them. The explosions engulfed the entire area, even the King herself. Though seeing how she was immune to its effects, it did not bother her. However, those looking to escape would have issue with the speed of each explosion setting off like that of firecrackers. Though strangely enough, these explosions were only aimed at the Men in the area and not the women directly. On further inspection, these explosions would only follow the men... The women would be ignored completely.

And so, the battle begins. He really didn't want to get into a conflict he knew nothing about, but it started regardless whether he wanted it or not. Clearly, this girl was deranged and dangerous. But perhaps this conflict could've been avoided. With a Persona that could cause explosions, that was worrisome. And now they were going to go after them with such a dangerous ability. Damn, this was really annoying.
A trail of explosions would be coming after them, Jin could see that and it was fast. They were around ten meters distance from each other. He had to get out of the way. Everyone else had to avoid the attack on their own, even Kogami who was now three meters behind him and the rest were even farther back. Hashashin was summoned once more as it grasped him by the hip before it jumped up in the sky taking him with it. A height of ten meters could be reached as the explosion was avoided just in the nick of time.
But at the same time, Jin breathed in, allowing the cigarette to be expended into a mere stub almost immediately. Then he enveloped the Second King in smoke that would be of fifteen meters in radii, but the King and the Persona would only be five meters from the edge of escaping it if they tried to exit from the front.
Hashashin would make another attack at the same time he was doing this as the smoke would cover Second King's visual perception. A single hand appeared from its cloak. With a single wave, long staves of 5 meters long would appear below the Persona and then shot towards the Second King and her Persona that were diagonally below Jin. Their numbers easily spanned 15 meters in diameter as each one shot towards the two together at the same time into the smoke that enveloped the King and her Persona.
Action:
Smoke | Through a special breathing technique with a cigarette, Jin can create a smokescreen to conceal himself away from enemy sight. Uses up one whole cigarette at a time. More widespread compared to Sukunda where this can be used to escape. Lasts three turns. Radius of 15 meters before dispersion. Clouds people's sight, especially Jin's. However hearing strength and other kinds of skills would be required to help maneuver around it. Physical skills cannot be used to disperse it. A Garu Skill can dismiss it easily. | 6 SP | Tier 2
Smoke on the Second King and the Persona only.
Akasha Arts. First attack to jump up to avoid explosions. Second attack to hit Second King and Her Persona.
184 Raw Damage with the Akasha Arts meant to hit her. 368 Raw Damage if it crits. 1 if it crits.

Shi was surprised by the sudden appearance of the woman, but didn't loose her footing, trying to think quickly about the situation in front of her. Of course there weren't that many options that seemed best, so she stopped running and stood a ways away from the actual battle, looking towards the girl. Even when she was faced with the weapons, she kept her emotionless eyes as the attack hit. She didn't feel the pain at all, but the attack was pretty damaging and she could feel herself getting a bit tired. "Ah, so the other child wants to play their hand in this absolute mess?" She'd speak at a tone that would only allow Vera to hear her because of the battle behind her. "I mean, you are the other child of Nyarlathotep that is playing her hand in this mess, correct? I honestly have to say I was hoping to meet you and all, but I'm disappointing it would have to be on such terms, considering you're blocking my exit." She'd cross her arms over her chest, not taking her eyes off the woman. "If you don't mind me asking, what do you plan on doing here? Because I don't want to stand in your way, I'm just curious is all." Of course attacking her would be a terrible idea, and trying to stop her was even worse. Right now all she can is sit and ask questions.

Kogami’s snakes came out , the sentient beings with their endless array stretched out like octopus extensions. It basically propelled Kogami like some sort of high rise elevator. Kogami wasn’t necessarily in the know of with his snakes were attempting to do first hand, the actions was completely based on the first rate assumptions that they met on his own. After extending to the side of about five meters in height and 6 meters diagonally, during hat small air time in order to dodge, two symbiotic snakes extended from kogami’s body in order to attack the second king. Even if a bit of the symbiotic snakes were a scuffed from the extensive push that Kogami used them for to get a little bit of air time until the end disperse of the second kings explosion barrage, they were of ectoplasma material and could easily regenerate, making them both expendable and extremely useful assets at the same time. Since no damage was done to the main body, Kogami would be safe from harm for the time being.
As for the snake attacks, he snakes would easily be able to attract the heat signature of the second king, as well as other forms to detect her in combination of koga’s hearing if the smoke was to hinder them in some way as well. However, that heat signature was only used for guidance as the real object to attack was the persona that the second king used, is humanoid sizeable frame as a reference and knowing that it wouldn’t be recalled since it had the same sort of protective instincts that kogami’s own snakes had. Two headed towards second king, one extension coming from the right and left side of the persona since Godai handled the front, as well as the barrage of staves could grab he immediate attention of a defensive stance due to how offensive It was. Kogami worked around it instead, as well as using his advantaged extending capabilities. Soon after descent, the landing point would have took about 9 meters away from Godai and 12 meters away from the second king diagonally. Starting to move around a circular motion to somewhat get behind her. “I don’t necessarily date weak girls, consider this our first date. “ Kogami would say with a sly smile, maybe his words could alter her mood. Kogami definitely seemed like the type if she could make a guess on him, without actually knowing for a longer period of time. A few of his snakes were prone around his back and waist, acting like an extra set of eyes combined with kogami’s hearing. He can’t see what they see, but trusted judgment was needed from everyone at his point, even himself. He didn’t know why he attacked,. And he didn’t know how to apologize. All he knew was to make it through this.
Raiza moved along, 6 meters ahead of koga, trying to circle around her early, both koga and raiza staying in that 12 range gap.
Double Fangs | Inflicts a small amount of Pierce damage twice to one enemy. | 8% HP | Tier 1 89 piercing damage twice *To persona*
Strengths
Spoiler:
—Strength Name: high-fidelity directional hearing —Description: Just like snakes, Kogami also contains a few of their traits. His jaw is linked directly to his inner ear, allowing Kagami to literally hear surface vibrations. His lower jawbones are separated into two halves in the inside, and the difference in timing between the vibrations received by the two sides informs Kagami of the direction of a person he's following, or keeping track of the movements of the people around him. This serves as a good combat combat ability, as well as an ability for survival. Its the only snake like ability Kagami manages to retain in and out of
—Strength Name:Snake style —Description: Kagami created his own style involvng his snakes and his soulbound weapon. They involve quick movements, and fighting in unison with his snakes. Even without his snakes, his knife tricks are par with even the best of fighters.
—Strength Name: The wolf in sheeps clothing —Description: Kagami generates this aura of goodwill and trustworthiness, giving off the imperession of innocence and using it to hide his true nature. One of the reasons why hes always smiling.
Strength Name: Symbiotic snakes —Description: In his true self form, the snakes contain all the abilities that a snake would have. Quick, Amazing jaw strength, ontop of the ability to extend, regenerate, and cover Kagami's blind spots if needed to. Sometimes they even act on their own, Forcing Kagami into his true self mode just to block an attack he didnt see coming.
The only difference here is that hes constantly surrounded by an endeless array of snakes. These strange snakes are completely green, and seen to sprout from from all around his body, even from his shadow, without messing up his clothes. They have a symbiotic presence to them, either following commands or acting on their own. The snakes also regenerate, due to their ectoplasma like qualities. Even though the outer appearence doesnt look like much besides the ectoplasma looking snakes, his insides are another story. Kagami contains characteristics as well, becoming the true embodiment without the monstorous appearence. Small quirks like a forked like tounge, still containing his teeth but with a pair fangs resembling a snake in his mouth, and a very lightly scaled skin thats slightly noticable.

There was nothing to be said to the female speaking to her, but she did keep note of her presence.
Vera watched the scene infront of her; analyzing all its data. The Second King was agitated and this gave Vera plenty to take advantage of. This explosive element she used was rather amazing, especially since it kicked up alot of snow during the explosions and caused a little storm within the area that would easily support the Ice Princess' own abilities. Her Persona was still under the snow, moving beneath it, so she did not need to worry about summoning it once again.
The smoke screen really was a strange thing to do here, considering the form of attack here were explosions with a Garu base, from what the young woman could guess. He basically blew down smoke that wound instantly be dispersed, simply because the woman who did the attack had even done the attack around herself. What was the point of that except to waste SP and resources? Did it make any sense?
Regardless, the target was still ahead. He had launched himself in the air and attempted to circle around the King once landing. He seemed to ignore the fact the climate changed around him and he was moving through snow and ice. Considering he didn't mention this (nor acknowledge it once in their post), Vera took this opportunity to put down her own wager. The very snow Kogami stood upon, plus the snow kicked into the air from the explosions, would suddenly encase around him. The Persona beneath the white winter wonderland would expertly control the frost created by its wielder to perform this feat so suddenly.
With Vera's control over ice, this snow would first freeze Kogami's legs, as he ran, to make sure he couldn't escape. This part was subtle, as he did not acknowledge the snow beneath him, or the frost, making him as an easy target. It wouldn't just stop at the legs, as the snow kicked up in the air would have been manipulated to stick upon his body aswell. In almost an instant of dancing snowflakes, there would be a flash freeze; encasing Kogami in a full body statue of ice that would freeze him in place in an attempt at capturing him. Once again, considering he ignored the sudden climate change and the winter wonderland, this was basically a surprise attack on her part. There was little leeway to know it was coming at all. And with how potent her ice abilities were now, he wouldn't find himself breaking out of it like last time. If successful, the statue would be pulled under the snow by the Persona.
This wasn't the end of her action, as multiple walls of ice that could be compared to towers would begin to shoot towards the sky (20 meters high). Their main objective was to block the Second King off from attacking the others. However, another ice wall (20 meters high) appeared behind them (yet infront of herself) so they couldn't easily escape either. These ice walls were about 20 feet in length, meaning to get around them would take some time. She was giving them a chance to formulate a plan now.
All ice skills will be 30% stronger and even single spell ice skills can be treated as AoAs, not to mention each will have a 20% chance of causing a Frost bite ailment.
OoC:
Considering the Winter Wonderland was not mentioned and completely ignored; I suppose it would be a surprise attack instead of one seen coming.

"..." What? "Okaaay..." Mir put a hand up to her face as she held her spear to the side in a resting position. Nyx vanished as Scathach appeared instead behind her, and as the android extended her hand, a number of spikes formed behind the Second King as she moved, right behind her, right after the explosions... exploded. With her focus so set on the men, Mir at least had the chance to trap her here, even with such speed. Two spikes would appear from her sides, anticipating the movement, and shoot forward towards each other to catch her torso in a wall of ice that'd cover most of her front. At the same time, another spike extended from behind her and ran upwards and sideways, connecting to the other sheets at the front, coming down from the top. It wouldn't be particularly fast, due to the Second King's speed, but since her focus wasn't on Mir or the attack, maybe this would give her the opening. If nothing else, the attack could at least slow her down. Its positioning was odd, though, as the two sheets to the side appeared two or three meters away from the King, in her blind spot, while the third one came up just behind her like a snow wave.
"Hell, I dunno if this is gonna do a difference but..." The android raised her voice towards the Second King, albeit not in a commanding tone. "Err, look! I don't think anyone meant to attack you, honestly, can you just tell us why you came here? Jesus Christ, what a mess..." Why did someone just have to up and attack like that? Wasn't it enough that her entrance was already somewhat threatening? Yeesh...
Switching to Scathach, using Mabufula to attempt to trap the Second King... ah, not like it'll do much, but still.

Ice walls...? This was something new. What was this woman's agenda? She had erected a barrier between them and whoever was attacking them in the first place, and yet, she made it difficult for them to take this opportunity and run away with another wall... Well, at least it gave them some breathing room to formulate a stratergy... Not much of one, but it was better than nothing. How long those Ice walls would last was anyone's guess, so there was no wasting time. Every second was precious. Sadly Jin and Kogami had ended up on the other side of the first wall, which meant they were completely exposed to the explosive blasts... Not that he understood much of what was going on here... "Alright, now before we do anything else, can someone please explain what the hell is going on? Who's that?" He asked in a very irritated tone, looking at the others. He wasn't going to run away, that much was certain, but at least, he wanted some sort of clue as to who or what he was up against... As to formulate plans of surviving this... They had to think of something, and fast!
"Anyone got any bright ideas?"
Caestus himself was drawing a blank... If it wasn't for this ice covering every inch of the ground, he might be able to do something... At least restraining her manuverability to some extent using his mines, but... that was it. And for him to be able to do that efficiently, others needed to distract whoever this psycho was, which in itself was risky enough as is, but what else could he do? Sit in a corner, waiting for his death? No. He had to fight. He had a job to do... And he wasn't going to run away like a yellow-bellied coward! At least the two Ice users seemed to get a grasp of the situation rather well, and even Ruo did her part. He couldn't just sit on his ass doing nothing... But with the current circumstances, what could he do? Punch her? It was a suicide mission, going in, attempting to knock her out with his bare fists. Never had he found himself in a situation this dire. But that wouldn't stop him from trying, now would it? And this woman, although helpful right now... something felt off... Why did she block off their escape route? Did she want something from them? Caestus took a defensive stance, keeping an eye on both the wall, and it's creator... Aside from that, all he could really do right now was trying to communicate with his allies, trying to get a plan rolling...
