The City looked different at night, that was for sure. It seemed to reflect the vapid emptiness she had come to know well in life as well as herself, how dark and unforgiving it all was with only a few lights piercing through. She meandered aimlessly through the empty place, the buildings towering over her when she could see them outside of the dimly lit alleys she traversed. She knew damn well this was a bad idea, but yet she didn't want to go back to her dorm, she didn't want to do anything right now except have some grasp on life right now and just escape all the nonsense for once, so she decided to leave her room and take a walk. Being in her room just disgusted her sometimes, it decorated by a clearly expensive style and decor that was almost gaudy to look at, being nearly identical to her room back home. Like was that supposed to be comforting to her? It reminded her that her own problems got her here, that she was abandoned and shipped off here because her parents didn't want to deal with her anymore.

She pushed these things down into herself more as she tried to cheer up a bit, leaning on the wall of one of the lit areas watching the lights as she reflected on other things. She'd smile wearily, her relief coming from little more than mental silence, her unable to think of things that could make her feel better. This should have scared her, but figured that she was just tired from the day.

The night persists, and continues to get colder. It would not take long before Beatrix would slowly get a strange dizzy spell and a heavy sensation. Even shorter than that as their eyes flickered, they almost could see their shadows moving...

From them spouted several shades that seemed to make the light they covered darker, appearing before her. From this point her mind would be assaulted by various images of debauchery, ranging from the perverse to the violent. She could tell the shades; the Demons were a result of this. If she failed to win over them with her mind, they would take over. What would soon happen?

Ai Walked through the dark Allyway with her kitten walking the streets with her by her side, the kitten wore a cute fancy collar as Ai held a few bags of cat toys and food, for her kitten. "Alrighty Cynthia, I need to sit..." She said as the girl sat down in an alleyway with her arms dropping the bags on the floor as she held the kitten happy in her arms. "Awww... Do you like your new Collar baby~?" She asked as she reached into the bag to open a box to take out a small can. "Ohhh chicken in gravy, doesn't that sound De-lish~?" She asked as she opened the can to put the food near the kitten as she tossed the lid into a nearby trash. "Late Night Shopping is fun, isn't it Cynthia?" She asked. "And you were a brave kitten, you took all your shots~" She giggled. "Mrow!" The kitten cried happily to her owner as the small animal ate the food happily.

"We'll Fight for you Cynthia... I will die for you as long you live happily.."

The night was young and daaaaamn was it dull. Like, it almost wasn't worth her time. Patricia could be at her dorm trying to smoke nutmeg or something than this shit. But that wasn't as good a high as she was looking for, not tonight. Pure. Unfiltered. Adrenaline. That was what she was after. It didn't matter where it came from but it came from almost the same place each and every time and that was a near-death experience. Well, sometimes for her and sometimes for others, depended on what happened. Usually for someone else. But she manage to get her buddy out and about so that was something. She just assumed he didn't stay out this late like she did, not a lot of people did. But that like didn't matter because they were doing stuff "for the cause" or whatever, at least that's how she spun it. Of course, she was already in full terrorist garb to mask her identity. It'd be kind of retarded of her not to be.

"See? This isn't so bad!" she beamed to the knight, resting her elbow on his shoulder, "Like, by patrolling and shit you're showing everyone you're not so bad and care about their welfare and junk. Freedom fighter shit! Besides, at least if you find anything you get to save people from Demons and shit right? That's what really counts right?" The delinquent would grin with her eyes beneath her shaded hat as she goaded the black knight as they walked together. Seriously it wasn't a bad idea to patrol the worse neighborhoods for trouble. No one was out this late anyway. Well.... no one but her and if she was out like this Patty wasn't sober enough to realize what was happening so it was cool right? People weren't gonna notice shit.

Of course she'd appeal to his I'm a good person side but Patty just wanted to fight shit and Demons posed the most challenge. They gave her carte blanche to just blow shit up and that was better than crack to be honest. Speaking of which the further they progressed the more she could sense it. It felt like... excitement.
"Yo wait hold up dude... do you feel that...?" she would halt him. "There's electricity in the air..." It felt like how she felt the other night, the sense of foreboding and threat. It was kinda thrilling. Wicked bounced on her toes a few time as she let the power surge through her. She was gonna fuck shit uuuuuuuup.
"Yo dude! Dude c'mon let's go this is it!" she'd taunt as she took off toward the feeling of foreboding. Yeah whatever it was it was gonna die. That was just how shit was gonna go.

"I'm fairly certain they'd be more inclined to believe we were out seeking victims, given our current portrayal. It would be fortunate indeed if they did not immediately call for the Cadets." Cecil...or he supposed, Revenant's clanking footsteps sounded out as he conversed with the girl that had coaxed him out on patrol. As much as he had little issue with the sentiment, walking out in the open in full PT gear was not what he considered smart. It was a damn good thing the night was so barren of people, or this would have turned bad very quickly. "I am already out with you. You do not have to keep attempting to convince me."
Especially since it was painfully clear that all she wanted to do was blow things up.

...hold on. That sensation was...
"I feel that as well. We need to move. now."
He took off with...'Wicked', towards the feeling, his every footstep ringing out across the streets. He didn't share the would-be witch's enthusiasm for the matter.
He just needed to make sure nobody got hurt.

She felt the rush of sudden images of all sorts, her dizziness making her fall to the floor shortly and suddenly, her eyes managing to stay open through it somehow. She'd always heard demons could do this, but she never thought it was true, at least to the extreme degree that most around her described. She breathed harder, a sense of dread setting in as she holds herself up against the wall, fighting back their influence. "Get out of me...I-I'm not yours to just use as you wish!"

She wasn't losing herself, no matter how flawed of a person she may be. Her own rush of fear and desperation combining with her dizziness making it harder for her to stand again, her leaning on the wall more to keep her balance. She fought with all the willpower she humanly had, steeled to not give in to the dark, insufferable things she was being subjected to witness.

It would take a little bit of time, perhaps it was due to others showing up, but Beatrix for a brief moment felt a bit of clarity. She could feel her mind almost set completely free, while something in her head spoke to her. Meanwhile, the shades began to meld together and begin to take shape. It was not complete but to the others who would arrive, it would appear to be a large half-bull creature. As the voices grew louder, she could feel something burning across her body as something appeared to protect her. Chains also grew from a strange azure flame to shackle her wrists and legs, though she could likely tell that were she willing, she could break them. She could actually resist this Demon. Would she do it however, or would she fall like many before her?

You may awaken at this point, as your Persona calls to you. Be sure that you post your beginning stat distribution as this will be your only chance to do so before the fight begins.

Beatrix felt the burning sensation following the clarity, her shackles forming on her as a voice, very elegant and young rings through her, something rising inside her like an impending storm "Shackles?" The voice laughed in a soft, innocent tone "I don't think that's a good look for you, sweetie. Why don't we get you into something more tasteful? You'd look adorable I'm sure~"

Beatrix started regaining her balance, her shackles breaking off as she steps away from the wall, the chain links snapping "I think that'd be nice, but I trust you to choose for me Helen." Beatrix responded, embracing whatever madness she was falling into. It felt good to her. Just then she felt azure flames wreath around her body.

"I art thou, thou art I." a white masquerade mask, with glowing gold lines flowing along it's black lacy patterns appears on her face from the azure flames. Golden flames flaring up on either side of it, vaguely in the shape of wings where the mask connects to the sides of her face. The rest of her outfit forming over her, it resembling a maid outfit with a feathery black rose extending out of the back of it, feathery details lining the shirt's collar. "Now that you're all dolled up, have fun~ But do make sure not to embarrass yourself."

Beatrix had no idea what to do in the face of the incoming danger. Somehow she knew her persona had no ability to fight on its own, though she couldn't place why. She soon discovered the white revolver strapped to her leg, a sword sheathed at her hip, having no idea how to use either. She would watch for now, to see what was about to unravel in front of her.

It wouldn't be long before Beatrix would hear the sound of metal-clad feet sprinting across the ground, Cecil's every step ringing out as it was made.
The knightly figure in armour of black and gold would come into view, looking across the area before his gaze came to rest on the unknown figure...and the half-bull creature that stood before her. It was an alarming sight, but what struck him most was the strange outfit and sheer lack of panic that the girl displayed.
Had...had she just...?
"Wicked...I believe somebody just got their persona." He shook his head. "Not that it'll do any good for her just standing there. We need to move."

He rushes between the girl and the bull demon, summoning to his hands a blade just as big as he was as he took up a stance in front of her. "Greetings. Would you like some assistance?"

Wicked dashed through the alleyways, following her gut feeling on where whatever this presence was coming from until she could hear a panicked voice cut through the night. She summoned her staff to twirl between her fingers as she cackled gleefully as if playing a game of tag. The witch soaked in the energy of the twilight, letting it fill her spirit with anticipation, excitement, and power as the black knight strode by her side. The air was tinged with the subtle sense of wrongness, the calm before a storm, the feeling of impending disaster just waiting to happen. Patricia wanted to be at the epicenter of that disaster and ride the turbulence.

As the two rounded the corner they'd come to a pretty familiar sight, more familiar to the knight than it was to the witch but she'd been standing where the new girl in white stood. Except y'know, angels instead of whatever this minotaur-looking freak was. Patricia stuck her tongue out past her eager grin. This one looked strong. It was gonna be hella rad to blow it to fucking pieces.
"Aaaaw, she's gonna be fine! 'Cause we're gonna blow it up! Ahahahaheeeee! She'd slow down to let the knight run past her and do the knight thing of protecting those that can't protect themselves or some garbage, Patricia would approach from behind slowly spinning her staff in her fingertips.

The lanky chick would take an arm around the girl in white's shoulder, still twirling her shillelagh in her hand.
"So I see you're at that age where you start noticing changes about yourself, your appearance starts to change and you have Personas where you never had Personas before," she lectured, jokingly giving the new chick The Talk, "But it's okaaay! Any urges you have, y'know, like the urge to turn Demons into paste are totally natural, aheeheeha!" From the girl's other side another woman would appear, though a blonde one in a much skimpier outfit than Wicked's was.

"They'll want to kill you, so you should just kill them first... Fair is fair, right? You don't want to die or anything, do you? You want to protect people, don't you...?"

The two ladies would both separate from the new girl, Wicked pulling away from her and Bridgette Bishop fading back into the ether. Patricia pointed her staff toward the menacing bull, pulling out a pair of yellow-tint sunglasses from her longcoat and throwing them on to amplify the glow of her eyes.

"So uh, just do what comes natural. Think you can handle that, chica?"

Ai could hear something near, the girl looking at the kitten as she picked up the kitten, slowly she walked towards the sound, the girl soon seeing 3 people and one persona. "Others..." Ai said as she hid behind a dumpster. "Cynthia, Be careful..." She said putting the kitten on the floor, telling her to hide. "Selene I need you, let's go!" She said in a pink flame, her clothes turned into her baker outfit. her little moon persona looked at the girl. "This better be worth it... let's protect Cynthia.." The moon girl said as she vanished and the girl got onto her moon seat, rushing forwards to the group. "Hey, am I late?" She asked cheerfully as her long hair flowing behind her as she held her small umbrella soul weapon.

So like, Wicked was going to let the new girl try out her new power but she just kinda stood there. Not a big deal, but this thing kinda needed to die. Kinda really a lot. Maybe she just needed a little push. Like, this wasn't a big deal to Wicked, she could straight-up grill some hamburger pretty instantly but that wasn't going to be any fun. Well, it would, but she wanted everyone else to enjoy themselves too. She wasn't about to be a bitch about it.
"Like, so that was your cue to do something awesome but if you want us to just take care of it..." the witch taunted. The other witch from before appeared to the girl in white to whisper words of encouragement to her ears.

"Awww, don't be nervous, sweety. We're sure you can handle this. We believe in you!"

Her words would fill the girl in white with a supernatural feeling of resilience, as if nothing could harm her, as if she could ignore anything that hit her and kept going. Bridgette Bishop smiled dreamily and whisked herself away back to the ether.

He hadn't been expecting another persona user to appear. That was a boon. "I believe you are quite on time. Pleasure to make your acquaintance."
...well wasn't this familiar? A big scary monster threatening their death, only this one appeared to have more horns than the last one. He shot a disapproving look toward Wicked for her comment, but let it pass.
Still. It wasn't this girl's fault. Not all could likely adjust so quickly to a scenario like this.
"Let us see an end to this. ANKOU!" Spectral chains spring up and pull down on his form only to be shattered, calling forth a gaunt humanoid form with a whirling scythe.
