Persona

Infici

I have good news, some of you have been infected with a very special condition that I myself have created and now with the shard of wrath I can increase the effective of this infection. So I have a warning, be a=careful what you say and be careful what you do, for you never know what will speed the infection.

Migrant

I was wondering if you'd show up.

You killed Ira, didn't you? To take the Shard of Wrath.

Persona

Of course, that was my original intention.

Migrant

Original intention?

So what changed? Did Yuki's group do it for you?

Persona

They've been doing it from the start...every sin...

Persona

I would show up at the end and steal the shard, each and every time.

Migrant

Damn them... even after figuring it out they still killed Ira...

What of Lux then? And Kaz? Lux was talking about the void calling to him, and Kaz looked about ready to have a mental shutdown!

Persona

The artificial human still lacks what he once had, he is empty thus responds to the emptiness that resides within other. I believe that answers your question about the one you call Kaz, too.

Migrant

Emptiness....

No. They couldn't have killed Kaz's shadow, could they have?

Persona

They certainly killed something...Hahahaha...Do you really have the time to be worrying about such things though, infected?

Migrant

I always have time to worry about friends. Why else do you think I'm so worried about the path the Protectors are walking!?

And why would I fear your vague infection, Nyarlathotep? We can stop you, the Nexus can.

Persona

Yes, keep up that confidence, you'll make a fine pawn.

Ari3s

You fucking communist.

Persona

While thank you, my dear. It seems I don't even need to infect you.

Aergia

Don't listen to that doo doo head!

Migrant

I have reservations against killing the Sins, because they're apart of this place.

But you came from outside it. I have no qualms if we decide to make you our next target.

Persona

From outside...? You misunderstand, Migrant. I was reborn from the shadows of the residents here. At one point I may have been foreign but now I am as much a part of this world as anything else.

Aergia

Shut up you! You're nothing but a doo doo head meanie!!

Persona

I sense a shard of sin...

Aergia

Uh oh...

Persona

You there, girl...what are you?

Aergia

I'm a girl!

Persona

...Fine, then what is your name?

Aergia

Aergia you meanie!

Persona

I see then you are the sin of Sloth...I have no interest in you, not yet...

Migrant

Not yet? So, you were following their pattern.

Starwaddle

Touch her and die. *Obvious aura of death*

Aergia

You're spreading lies about my big brother! That's mean!

Persona

Big brother? What lies do you think I speak?

Aergia

About my big bro Wrath! He's alive!

Migrant

WHAT!?

Starwaddle

If you care hurt her feelings... *Death aura is insanely big now*

Starwaddle

Wait what!?

Persona

Alive? What are you-
*The shard of wrath comes out of the mass of shadows and begins to crumble to dust*
What! It wasn't supposed to run out of power! These shards are supposed to have an endless supply!

Aergia

You're gonna get it now meanie!!

Starwaddle

...oh shit...a bait and switch!? That means...did I save the day!?

Persona

What trickery is this!
*The eyes focus in on Aregia*

Migrant

*heh heh heh heh heh* But... how? Star said that Ira was killed.

Aergia

*She puffs up her cheeks.... threatening*

Persona

I must go back and think this over...
*The mass of shadows melts into sludge and fills the air with the infection*

Starwaddle

Wait...does this mean that I have it!?

Aergia

Get back here!

Akamoto_Shinji

*warps in*
Did I miss him?

Migrant

No, Aergia said that Wrath's still alive.

Meaning either Ira didn't actually die, or Ira never existed in the first place.

Well now there's no way Yuki could decide to kill Wrath!

*snaps in the air*

And now we know who the real villain is!

Starwaddle

Wait...did we just kill a man!? We just killed some bastard who we all assumed was wraith!

Aergia

None of you killed anyone!

Starwaddle

Then...what just happened?

Migrant

No, I was with Kaz.

He showed symptoms of someone messing with his heart. But it didn't seem like he had a change of heart, and clearly didn't have a mental shutdown.

For all I know, you killed a cognition of Ira.

Starwaddle

Then...he did a bait and switch?

Akamoto_Shinji

Hey, You two, What's going on?

Starwaddle

We didn't kill Ira...we killed a cognition of him...he pulled a bait and switch on us, Nar included!

Migrant

Yuki and company apparently figured out a way to do what we couldn't.

Save Kaz without killing Ira.

Aergia

No... Ira did die, but Ira is not Kaz.

Akamoto_Shinji

Good, you two need to stay away from populated areas, Don't let the infection spread, Tell anyone else who was part of the fight against Nar. I don't know what it does, but DO NOT Let it spread.

Migrant

Then.... what....?

Starwaddle

... I'm so lost right now. We killed somebody, but we didn't, but we did?

Akamoto_Shinji

*pats Aergia on the head*
Sorry kid, I gotta disappear for a while... Mom will protect you, Ok?

Migrant

And nobody died?

Starwaddle

And I think I can't be infected as much as I am right now. Goddess status, plus Shadow-sona.

Starwaddle

...who wants to talk about murders...?

Akamoto_Shinji

Don't take the chance...

Starwaddle

I won't... I'm just so confused...can someone please explain what just happened?

Migrant

Psh, whatever that infection does we just have to kick Nyarlathotep's ass before he can start it.

He probably needs all the sins for that. So all we need to do is protect Ira and this won't get any worse.

Akamoto_Shinji

Don't be stupid like I was, Don't underestimate him, or you'll end up like me.

Starwaddle

I'm just going to...leave...yeah...*walks away confused as hell*

Migrant

Like you?

Persona

*Yes, stay naive children of man and let the infection fester within you, I never said all the sins were necessary*

Aergia

You can't hide from me meanie! *She yells out...*

Akamoto_Shinji

... Yea, I made the mistake of getting cocky, thought that I just had to ignore the voice, Had just finished.... a small fight, when shadows burst out of me and infected everyone around... It especially affected Ene...

If you hear the voice, Get as far away from people as you can.

Migrant

We should probably warn Yuki about this. Probably Yu and Tatsu as well...

Persona

OOC: Yu might be safe since they didn't actually participate in the battle, same with Yuki

Migrant

OOC: Yeah but logic is they're leaders in the Protectors and should probably know that A) Wrath survived, B) Nyarlathotep is up to no good, and C) Wrath needs to be protected from Nyarlathotep.

Akamoto_Shinji

Anyone who was part of that fight is infected, Along with anyone part of the other fight... Ask Star, she was there when it happened...

I need to disappear... After everything I've done....

*warps away*

Starwaddle

Ooc: at blue moon cafe right now.

Akamoto_Shinji

OOC, BTW, Shinji pulled the Infection out of Nanaka, Cuz their souls were connected.

Yu-Narukami

OOC: We'll continue talking here I guess.

George_Jackman

*runs to the scene, out of breath*

Phew.. Took me a little while to find this place.. Now come out, teleporting menace. I need to speak with you.

Akamoto_Shinji

*warps in, a fair distance from everyone*

Akamoto_Shinji

Ask your questions, Don't get close.

Starwaddle

Yeah, so...WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON!? Sorry, I'm just really fucking confused right now.

Migrant

Hang on Yu, you may want to listen to Shinji as well.

Yu-Narukami

To put it simply, Ira was not the real wrath.

Yu-Narukami

Oh, Shinji...

George_Jackman

First, I would hate to have the wrong man. Would you take out your scythe? It is a very unique weapon. If I were to see it I could confirm that you are indeed the villain I'm looking for.

Akamoto_Shinji

I don't know whats going on with wrath, I've been busy.

Starwaddle

So...someone died?

Akamoto_Shinji

*pulls out scythe and throws it, sticking in the ground next to George's feet*

Yu-Narukami

Yeah, someone died, but it wasn't wrath, it was another being.

Yu-Narukami

The plan wasn't for them to die in the first place though.

George_Jackman

*looks at the scythe for a moment to confirm*

Indeed, that is definitely the object I touched. You've killed many people, careless for their lives and those they would leave behind. So, I would like to ask. What drives you? What is it that brings you to do these things?

Starwaddle

Then...who died? Like, why did they do it? Who were they really?

Yu-Narukami

Ira was the one who died and the one possessing Kazuya.

Akamoto_Shinji

Do you want the absolute truth?

I derive some sort of sick emotional pleasure from taking lives, It's not something I'm proud of, nor do I like it. But it's the truth nonetheless.

George_Jackman

*looks at Shinji, with determination in his eyes*

Very well, I had thought to give you a chance after some recent discoveries I'd made. But it seems you truly are evil to the core. Now, everyone else ask what you will. Though I doubt you'd get an honest answer from someone like him.

Starwaddle

So...Ira was just a dick who we all assumed was Wraith?

Yu-Narukami

I have nothing more to say to you right now Shinji, just that I still think you can find redemption.

Yu-Narukami

@Starwaddle
That about sums it up.

Starwaddle

...so all of that was basically because he decided to be a dick? What. The. Fuck?

Akamoto_Shinji

I wish I could Narukami, I don't go a day wishing I could be different. I hate every last bit of myself. But this is what happens when you're born without a soul, without a conscience.

Makes me wish I never grew one in the first place...

Yu-Narukami

Well wrath might've had some influence over Ira as well.

Migrant

So... that explains that.

Now.... you said you knew about the whole Nyarlathotep thing?

Yu-Narukami

That's not true Shinji, anyone can change, I once new a madman named Adachi who killed people for fun, he was even a detective but he changed and realized that what he'd done was wrong. Labrys at one point was a heartless machine who killed without mercy but she changed herself and became the person you know now. I mean look at Lux, he tried to reduce the world to a void but we changed him as well. Everything we've seen so far has proven that anyone can do good if they just try.

Starwaddle

...fuck it. *I am thou, thou art I, the world is yours now go get shit faced or something* ...and that's the world social link found...fuck it, I'm out. *Walks back to the cafe*

Yu-Narukami

OOC: Who'd you get a social link with?

Starwaddle

Ooc: Yu...I mean, you do have the world arcana...

Yu-Narukami

OOC: Oh right, I do.

George_Jackman

To the contrary, my fellow hero. for some people deceit and villainy are second-nature. These monsters simply cannot understand what it is to do good. I know that, as a hero, I am supposed to protect anyone, but there are many villains who simply refuse to be saved. As much as this Shinji claims to seek redemption, it is likely merely an act, one that's all too common among evildoers.

Akamoto_Shinji

If that's the case Narukami, help me, please. I regret every life I've taken, I constantly have to keep myself in check, out of fear I'll kill someone.

I am the way I am, The joy of killing will never stop, It's the first emotion I ever felt, It's ingrained into my soul.

But now... Even if I enjoy the act... I immediately feel regret afterwards, I know its not right and I know its sick.

Akamoto_Shinji

Believe what you will Vigilante, I am nothing if not Honest though.

Yu-Narukami

I will help you Shinji, you just have to let me.

Akamoto_Shinji

I'll do what I can.

Tatsuya

*Walks in* So guys what's up? Heard about that Ira thing. Sorry I missed it. Anything else going on?

Yu-Narukami

Oh a dangerous infection spreading throughout are ranks is what.

Migrant

Nyarlathotep has a plan to kill us all, and it's decently far along.

Tatsuya

Huh that sounds bad... Hows it spread?

Starwaddle

*suddenly appears* basically, Ira was a dick, not Wraith...oh, and there's a shadow virus going around so don't act evil. *Suddenly disappears*

George_Jackman

*Notices Tatsuya*

Greetings citizen, but I am afraid this place is too dangerous for someone like you. My fellow hero and I

*gestures to Yu*

are negotiating with a villain. I would rather chase him off, but this seems very important to my ally.

Akamoto_Shinji

Sorry, That was my fault. I got cocky, I thought whatever he threw at me I could handle....

And now people are suffering from my mistakes...

Tatsuya

Hey pal I'm a hero as well. I fought against ole chaos himself back in the and I've been hunting demons ever since.

And that so called villain is my friend your talking about.

Akamoto_Shinji

Thanks Tats, but he's right, I'm a pretty evil person.

George_Jackman

He has admitted to being evil and enjoying it himself. Why would you want to count such a person as your friend?

Yu-Narukami

We all make mistakes Shinji, but we have to learn from them and use those failures to improve ourselves, both physically and mentally.

Tatsuya

Evil? Please idiot evil people aren't like you, evil doesn't give a shit who or what it hurts it just hurts. Evil people don't regret a damn thing they do.. Heh if you're evil then so am I.

Yu-Narukami

Because I want to have faith that anyone can face the truth and change who they are.

Akamoto_Shinji

Right, which is why I'm gonna keep my distance from now on.

Tatsuya

Keep your distance? You better not jackass I'll hunt ya down if you try it. *He smirks* I'll even make that damn vampire Zelretch help if I have to.

Starwaddle

*suddenly appears* I have a social link with you, so you can't! I'll make sure you can't keep your distance!

Akamoto_Shinji

I have to keep my distance, I'm Infected, you're Infected, Everyone who fought Nar is infected, and I learned the hard way today that when that infection spreads, It causes nothing but suffering.

If you hear a voice, get away from everyone.

Yu-Narukami

Who do you think is infected anyway?

Migrant

Supposedly anyone who was around Nyarlathotep the other day, or around Ene today.

Starwaddle

I am...but I know of a way to dispose of mine, so I'm okay... it's just going to take time...that, and finding her...

George_Jackman

*thinks for a moment before speaking with a smile*

Very well, if these great heroes are willing to vouch for you, I will at least give you your space. So long as you don't perform any great acts of horror, you may come and go as you please. As for this infection... It sounds like something I'll need to watch out for.

Ari3s

Wait, what exactly /are/ we infected with?

Yu-Narukami

I showed up in the end, do you think it got to me too?

Akamoto_Shinji

Star, Tats, Maya, Me, Mig, Reaper, Ene, Klib.
That's everyone off the top of my head, Shiza may be as well.

Nanaka was, but I took her infection and cut ties with her soul, She should be safe...

Yu-Narukami

This details on it were vague even when I looked into it, but's some kind of shadow disease that can have a variety of different effects base on how you act.

Migrant

So realistically it may be no different than having to fight our shadow again?

Starwaddle

Hmm...I wonder how it would effect everyone...maybe it turns us into our shadow selves?

Akamoto_Shinji

You may have been, Don't take any chances...
as for what, I'm not sure exactly, but whatever it is, it's important enough that he would sacrifice his form to infect us. That's all we need to know that its dangerous...

Tatsuya

*He looks crestfallen* Maya infected? I hope she's alright I haven't seen her in a few days...

Ari3s

And I take it thus behavior thing would be based off the sins thus far.

Suffice to say, I, and a lot of with this thing are fucked.

Ari3s

****a lot of the people

Migrant

If it's based on the sins he has access to, then keeping the remaining sins alive becomes priority one.

Akamoto_Shinji

Also, Narukami, Tats, During the incident with Ene, Lumina said something interesting.

Apparently Succoth thinks I'm their biggest threat.

Ari3s

Good point, M.

Speaking of the sins, once I do, uh, y'know, flip my lid and turn on you all because of that you-know-what, what sin do you think it'll be? If any at all, that is.

Starwaddle

Hmm...I don't think it is. I felt it grow when I was being cocky back at the arena.

Yu-Narukami

I have a feeling Succoth and Nar don't get along, so that could make sense. Nar might consider you their most valuable pawn.

Akamoto_Shinji

Why though? I don't plan on siding with either.
Lumina said it had to do with my teleporting.

George_Jackman

*deep in thought*

So this Shinji is being manipulated by a much greater evil? Very well, then it is my duty to get to the bottom of this mystery and slay the villain myself! Worry not poor victim, you shall be saved. Until then take care not to overexert yourself. It seems much grander things are afoot, perhaps Fate brought me here for a reason, to be a beacon of hope in this dark hour.

Ari3s

Wait, Shinji too? When did that happen?

Migrant

Your teleporting, plus infection,might be dangerous. Easier to spread the infection.

Akamoto_Shinji

Right, I plan on staying in the nexus,
Aqua, she was there too. Which means she was infected.
At least I don't have to avoid her...

Akamoto_Shinji

Well, if we're finished here, I'm heading back to the hotel...
I need some rest.

George_Jackman

Very well, safe travels citizen. I have some business of my own to take care of.

*walks off, as suddenly as he came*

Akamoto_Shinji

*warps away*

imtherealklib

*runs in*

Um...I heard something about me being infected...how bad is this?

Starwaddle

*pops out of nowhere* we're fucked. *Is now gone*
