Xombie wiped a bead of sweat from his head. Damn was it how down there, what was that demon thinking doing this? Man, he was close to ripping his clothes off. But then he was afraid someone would come and try to take his undies, and that was not okay! His thoughts were brought back to his current teammates, as the one who was giving him the most issues approached him. "Zombie works. What do you want?" The Terrorist looked at him with a raised brow, though it couldn't really be seen behind the skull mask. "Misjudged me? Not sure what you mean by that." The young man shrugged his shoulders and continued down the burning path. "I do what I want, when I want too. I just know demons aren't the problem with this city. Demons didn't cause the Eternal Divide, nor were they the cause of this city's turmoil. It was a woman with green hair and golden eyes of death. She was dangerous, and I just know she was the cause of everything back then. The world is this way because of her, but even then, I hold no ill intent towards her anymore. After all, if it weren't for the Eternal Divide, I wouldn't have these powers." He gave a smirk between his mask as he looked at his current attire and then to the scythe he summoned to hand. With this power, maybe it was worth those lives being lost back then. Cruel way of thinking, but Xombie was by far a saint. He wasn't entirely convinced he didn't cause some of that tragedy by sucking the luck out of the area.
"We can work together to survive this, but don't expect me to be your friend. I'm not interested in fucking around with people who go from naughty to nice." Xombie stuck a finger in his ear as his eyes scanned the walls to see if there were any switches of the sort. Seemed like nothing was here. What a pain! He sucked his teeth and picked up his pace into a light jog to continue searching the hot as satan's groin area. Whoever this Phantom was, it appeared he wanted them to have some sort of relationship with the demons. Xombie was honestly not against that whatsoever. Demons were awesome in his eyes. They lived the lives they wanted, and didn't let the chains of society keep them down. That's probably why the Government wanted them to keep them under control. What a damn shame to know the demons had some of the same problems as themselves. They probably were just looking to live here and fuck shit up too. What was so wrong with that!? Xombie made a mental note that once they were out of this burning place, he'd ask the Phantom if it were possible for the demons to assist them in whatever the hell they were doing here. After all, wouldn't the lantern demon owe them for lending them a hand? He damn better pay them somehow!
Movement and OoC:
I probably won't be here tonight so I'm posting now. In battle, I won't be posting first.
Xombie's moving ahead. Continuing 6 paces down the path, meaning i'll be at the last block before needing to turn right.
Bernard had continued to walk through the area, starting to slightly burn up. It seemed this was going to be more of a pain in the ass than she thought it would be at all. What with all this heat coming at her here and there, it just simply was not mean't to be with the owl being a simple snow owl, a creature that was rather sensitive to heat in the first place and could not handle high temperatures well. She would brush across her head as the sweat started to pour on. Did owls sweat, the rper did not know. Hmph. Shit,let's keep moving forward. If we stop now then this heat is gonna kill us off...The owl did not hesitate at all to move forward and maintain her strong and steady path. The rest of her team appeared to sustain damage however from this burning that threatened to consume them. To reduce them to nothing more than basic people at the mercy of flames.
Looking around for something that may be of worth and that could assist her. The owl would come up empty handed and on the rather would get annoyed at this sudden development. Her stubbornness kicking in, she simply continued to venture forth into the darkness and burning flames. Aiming to get rid of them. To simply give up now and turn back would render this entire venture fruitless and a waste of resources. After all what if the demon rewarded them for stopping the flames too?Is it hot in here?Or is it just me?The owl simply mused at the group as she continued to go through the burning area, well someone needed to lighten the mood. She was rather anti-social and could be hostile at times. However now was simply not the appropriate time to be "difficult". what with how she unintentionally diffused the early situation that was going on. Bernard simply cursed at herself on the inside for agreeing to this. Taking the burns stung like a bitch and frankly it was like one bad as hell sunburn stinging at her body right now.
The owl assumed that her companions felt it just as well, the flames threatened to overtake their bodies. Although she could describe the intensity of the flames so well it would be the equivalent of if she described edward cullens breath from twilight. As the odd woman in that book put it. Oh god she had to escape this heat before the hoo began to say fresh unoriginal lines from that book in a horrible uncreative way too! Like "I saw several things simultaneously". For an owl that did not have much deep understanding of the english language, even she knew something was wrong and amiss with that wordplay.

"Alright. I hope we can- wait." He said, the full brunt of Zombie's words suddenly becoming clear. "What woman with green hair and gold eyes? You're saying she caused the Eternal Divide? Tell me more." Takeru said, intrigued by what the boy said. Was the whole official explanation just some big cover-up? If so, why? He got the feeling that all of what he heard from the zombie boy, even with his cruel way of thinking, would be important. Information was power, after all. And here, he needed all the power he could get ahold of. "Careful." Twelve remarked. "That's the sort of mindset tyrants develop from. You fight monsters now... but don't become one." Twelve said. "I will." Takeru responded mentally. Twelve had his reasonable doubts to be had about it, but he kept silent for now.
"Yeah. It is getting hot. Man... I hope that switch shows up soon." He remarked in response to what the person who head butted him said. "I better not fall behind, though." Takeru thought. In this heat, if he passed out from it, and he was left behind, chances were he would probably be dead before the others found the switch, and realized he was gone. His outfit, as aesthetically cool as it was, was not the kind of cool he was hoping for in this situation.
"Gods... what kind of place is the phantom running? And why the blazes (pun not intended) did Pyro Jack set the basement on fire?!?! Wait. Have I mentioned that already?" Takeru said, thinking out loud. Then he got an idea. "Hey! You who head butted me earlier! Since it appears you can create ice, or at least manipulate moisture as such, can you use it to create some kind of cooling vapor cloud around us? It would really help deal with this heat!" He said. "I'd try and see if I could jumpstart the the sprinklers from here or something, myself, or rip up the earth around a water main here to generate water, but either of those actions could have severe consequences if they go wrong, particularly the first one!" He said. At this point, though, he really hoped the heat would let up soon. At this rate, he would be burned by the flames if he didn't find the switch soon, and if that happened, well... he didn't want to think about it.
"Man. I haven't sweated this much since... since... hmmm... I can't remember, honestly." He remarked mentally as he kept moving on as he followed the Zombie looking boy.
You're missing a Party member it seems. If Sosina does not post by her turn, you may bring someone from another cast in to take her place. I will leave that decision to you all.

"Demons!" Takeru said, ready to fight, then remembered his own words earlier. "Oh, right. Maybe I can reason with them." Takeru thought. "Hey! Can we talk? We don't have to fight, you know!" He said to the demons.
"Eww, you're weak! Why would I want to talk to an Old Man like you?"

Feeling the heat in the area Trinity walked with the rest of the group it was really an interesting situation they found themselves in, on the one hand this could simply be another facet of the test that the phantom set up...in fact she was fairly certain it was, however there was the chance that the demon had in fact been trapped and had tried to get out and caused this fire. Though thinking of it, it was quite possible that the Phantom had gotten a few to help him with this test. That would mean that Demons could be cooperated with, lending more evidence that they were not simply mindless killing things.
If that's what the Phantom wanted them to realize while they were down here, then she had realized that rather quickly, but she needed to understand them more, she wanted to understand them more.
As they walked she could feel the heat of the flames and she was slowly finding out that a few of the group was apparently bad with fire if the the one called Zombie having stated as such, while Blance seemed to be much the same. Truth be told she didn't like the heat ether, but it was made all the worse by the fact that it seemed to be affecting her far more then she thought it would. Then again she had never really been inside a place that was basically engulfed in flames and a corner of her mind had to wonder what she was even thinking having headed in here, none of them were even equipped for this type of situation, but yet here they were....and not all that worse for ware. making her wonder if they had some form of protection from their Other selves.
As they continued their walk she could also hear the voice of her pawn in her head "I regret to inform you my Liege that me and my brethren are not the best when it comes to the heat or flame, Heavy armor such as what we wear not being the best in such situations". She nodded and replied in her head "That is okay, though it seems then we share our weaknesses....normally the heat doesn't bother us...however since we have been made aware of the rest of my siblings we have found that the heat seems to bother us more...Perhaps we share our strengths as well?" she thought to herself as they walked.
Eventually the group was set upon by Demons. Trinity's slight preoccupied thoughts having distracted her, though as she registered the situation it seemed the one that wanted to be called thirteen tried to talk with the demons though it seemed to fail and she sadly figured that battle may be the only option, raising her hand a barrier formed in front of her between the demons and herself.

"Come on, ya fool! You think we have time to talk in this hot box? Let's get this over with. Practice your talking with the demon back at the front." Xombie fanned his face (covered in the mask) and gave a sigh. Focusing his power around his body, he would reach for the chains that shackled his wrists. Biting into the chains with his teeth, he'd tear the chains and summon Raffles at his back. The bandaged Persona stabbed into the ground beside his body and scraped slowly pass him. A large smile was on the Persona's face as it licked its lips for the amount of luck it would surely devour here. To make things even better, Xombie gave into his artificial Persona and went into his overdose phase right off the back to alleviate some of the burns that would come his way.

—Weakness Name: Bad Luck Boy —Description: Jack unconsciously sucks the luck from his allies in combat, lowering their luck stat by 10% (the enemy is unaffected but all allies are.)
At that moment, the Hua Po chose the worst possible words to reject him with. "Weak? I'll show who's weak." He said, trembling with anger once again, it's influence still quite powerful after his last little outburst was put out. "WOULD A WEAKLING BE ABLE TO DO THIS?!?! SUFFER! LOOK UPON MY WORKS ALL YE MIGHTY... AND DESPAIR!" He yelled at them, laughing sadistically as a rather sizable bolt of black lightning began to charge up in his palm. Even Twelve seemed overwhelmed by the rage, subtly looking away as Takeru did what he did. He couldn't stop Takeru, at least, not here and now. It would kill him. The flames also seemed to make him scarier as well, as he began to walk up to them with that lightning, charged forward and let it loose with sadistic glee.
Action:
Using Mazionga. Damage is 33, as this is magic tier 2. Cost is 16 sp. Misses on a 1 or a 2 for all. (cause of the zombie, goddammit).

OoC:
You all have a latent 20% miss rate thanks to Xombie. Do not forgot to factor this in for this fight and any fights to come if he's on your team. Calculate this in next time Bernard. Also do remember, if you're not strong to fire you are currently burned.

Trinity wasn't liking the heat down here, she could feel it having a debilitating effect on her, and from looking at the others she could see the same happening to them as well.
The Attack from the demon also damaged her shield, causing cracks to form on it's surface but protecting her from the attack it launched her way.
Raising her hand a Pawn came into being and she pointed to Blance' "Aid her" she said simply as the Pawn Nodded and gave a salute "Yes my liege!!" before they ran over to Blance' and started to apply a simple bandage to their wounds from the flames, the bandages seeming to absorb into the owl headed one and their wounds magically healing.

Thank you!The owl would say in appreciation as her persona would launch again another dastardly attack.
