a warning to the prophet, the liar, the honest:

[sawthelockdown]

Characters: Asako Minegishi sawthelockdown, open to roommates in 2-15 and anyone who hears the screaming!
Setting: Room 2-15
Format: Action preferred, but I'll follow the replying party's lead on this. o7
Summary: Asako was one of the parties who requested that Jason be punched in the face. There is now a monster under her bed. Battle and panic ensue.
Warnings: Horrible misshapen monster oh god. Probably violence. A whole lot of "you tried" since the thing drains abilities on proximity.


[Asako has just recovered from the sleep paralysis, and she is staring blankly up at the ceiling. This is not good. This is all kinds of not good. That thing is still under her bed and if she leaves it'll probably go after her and-- if she doesn't get out of bed, she'll be miserable and-

She doesn't really have a choice. She has to rely on herself, after all, and when push comes to shove she has to face the monster by herself. No reason to get anyone else involved while she screams like a damsel in distress, really. She is a demon lord, she can handle this! ... She hopes.

So she swings out of bed and prepares to confront the monster.

...
...
...

Anyone near Room 2-15 can hear the sounds of a particularly violent, loud struggle, complete with screeches of "SOMEBODY HELP" and "OH CRAP I CAN'T USE MAGIC!" Anyone in Room 2-15 will be treated to the sight of a runt of a girl freaking out and trying to punch a misshapen thing into submission.]

[Thankfully, it doesn't take long for Hei to hear the noises coming from the room. Without even waiting, he breaks through the door, knife pulled out and thrown at the creature trying to kill the kid. Monsters inside of here though? Strange.]

[sawthelockdown]

[She nods at the knife-throwing stranger.] Don't get close! If you've got any powers, like - [PARRY] - magic, it'll drain them if you get too close!

[PUNCH. This thing just won't die!]

[donutsorgtfo]

[Aoi was still fast asleep when Asako awoke. If that... thing's presence was able to be sensed by the other roommates, this one certainly didn't notice a thing! Maybe she's a heavy sleeper...

...

Nope, not at all. As soon as the sound of a fight breaks out, she's up, and for one moment just stares in shock, still half-asleep mentally, before letting out a scream.]

W-W-What the hell is that?!

[sawthelockdown]

This is what happens - [BLOCK] - when you use the request box - [PUNCH] - to ask for Jason - [FUMBLE] - to be punched in the face!

[She's more than a little upset that she didn't See it coming. Looks like her ability to see the future really is on the fritz...to make it worse, her magic isn't working either! Well, at least she's used to punching things...]

[fusedstars]

[Close yes, and that knife had something attached: a wire. Knife inside the creature, his eyes glowed red, electricity suddenly being shocked into the creature. Surely that would do something, right?]

Move away, now!

[donutsorgtfo]

Th-That's really messed up!

[If this was any less of a serious moment Aoi would probably be laughing at the site of a girl that size beating up a monster with her bare hands. She only thought people like Sakura would try do to that! BUT NO, NOW IS NOT THE TIME TO DWELL ON THAT. MONSTER IN THE ROOM. BAD SITUATION. MUST FIGURE OUT A WAY TO MAKE SURE THIS DOESN'T END IN DEATH.]

Can you hang on for a little while longer!? I can see if I can go find someone to help!

[sawthelockdown]

[Asako does as requested, rolling away as the lightning strikes and...

...

It ate the electricity.] Crap!

[sawthelockdown]

Isn't it though?!

[When you're in the Tokyo Lockdown, you learn to do some pretty weird things. Besides, this can't be as bad as Beldr - at least she doesn't need to punch it with a piece of mistletoe! At Aoi's suggestion, she looks over and nods briefly before blocking another attack.]

All right, sounds good. I'll hold on for as long as I can!

[puppy_lancer]

[When something was screaming loud enough to be heard from the other end of the hall, it probably meant nothing good.]

Hey, what's with the screeching?

[He stomps over toward the sound.]

[sawthelockdown]

[The sound is Asako attempting to punch the daylights out of a...thing that is clearly made of WRONG and not friendly.]

[fusedstars]

[Of course this would happen. He didn't let that stop him, drawing out the two swords he had behind him, the staff splitting into the dangerous blades. He rushed at the creature, thrusting both blades right into it.]

[technologic]

[What the fuuuuuu-

Just gonna be heading towards the source of the screaming and barging into the room. No time for manners!]

[sawthelockdown]

[The thing is still not dying, and Asako resumes pummeling it with everything she's got. This...is not that much, but it's still better than fighting Beldr.]

[sawthelockdown]

[What th-- Oh, hey, you're the girl her brothercousin got swapped with. Cool, cool. However, Asako doesn't know if April can fight, so while blocking one of the thing's attacks with an arm, she looks over at April and yells:] Might want to run if you can't fight! You can't use any powers on this thing!

[Back to being a runt punching a weird misshapen horror.]

[puppy_lancer]

[He takes a second to stare at the creature.]

...Kid, we need to have a talk about your taste in pets.

[The next second, he's charging at the creature with a punch of his own.]

[sawthelockdown]

Hey, I didn't want this thing! I really prefer dogs or cats anyway!

[Being the bluehairs punching the critter, s'all good.]

[technologic]

Good thing I can fight, then! [And now said misshapen horror is going to get one strong punch aimed at it.]

[puppy_lancer]

Well, then your big brother and I really need to have a talk about his preference in pets! Especially on ones that are suitable to give to your sister as a present!

[More punching, but the monster isn't going down.]

[sawthelockdown]

Good to hear it. Thanks for the help - this thing just won't die!

[At least it isn't Beldr, though. If it were, the punches wouldn't even be doing anything.]

[sawthelockdown]

The goddamn Tower did it, Lancer! This is what happens when you ask for one of the admins to get hurt, I think!

[WHY ISN'T IT DYING OH CARP--]

[technologic]

No problem! And it's gotta go down sometime, I doubt the admins are so sadistic as to make an immortal monster.

[And this is when April is glad for all the training she's gotten in the tower, though her added strength doesn't seem to making this any easier.]

[puppy_lancer]

Next time, let's just request that they die.

[He generates his spear, blocking a strike from the monster.]

And they need better taste in pets.

[sawthelockdown]

I don't think it's meant to be a pet!

[She takes the opportunity to land some more punches and a kick to the monster.]

[sawthelockdown]

You sure about that?

[...It's kind of therapeutic beating this thing up though.]

[technologic]

[There's a pause in mid-punch as April seriously thinks about that.]

... To be honest, not really. But if all else fails, we could try picking it up and throwing it out a window.
