Scarlet Mist Incident: Scarlet Mist Crusaders [ROAD ROLLER EDITION]
You are at Patchouli's table, eating tea and drinking crumpets.
It is now approximately 9 pm. The sun is setting, and the mist is still expanding. You suddenly realize you don't actually have time to be sitting on your asses acting all british like. Patchouli thinks so too and shows you the wait out. You remember what she told you before.
"Remilia, the instigator of this incident, is on the roof, spreading the scarlet mist. If you want to stop here, that's where you'll have to go."
[ do you guys need a refresher on the rules and/or a test ? ]
OOC: I'm good to go whenever, though others may want a refresher
Ooc: I'm fine

Im good to go! We just gotta save the world right? No biggie!
ooc: I'm good, but if anyone else needs one, that's fine

ic: *Cait finally pulls a reverse Mona and wakes up, preparing to go to the roof*
OOC: I remember. Sorry about poofing yesterday. Something important came up.
*shrugs
don't worry hibki. it's not like we waited 20 minutes after every post for you ^^
OOC: again sorry. I couldn't control it.
I'm just kidding -w- don't sweat it.
*climbs through a window*
Is it another enemy? Who are you?

*Junpei pulls out his baseball bat
Oh hey, it's that Lightning gal! Hi there, nya!
*Gamma stands up and stretches, before starting to walk towards the roof*

Come on guys, we don't have all day. The sooner we get this situation worked out the better, right?
*stands up*

Hey. Sorry I disappeared. I stayed behind because I felt horrible. Something was wrong. I think I'm better now. I'll try not to slow you down.
Oh its you! I remember now! Well we dont have much left but its good you could join us!
It's alright, nya. At least you're here now! Onwards to the culprit!
* you walk out of the library, and into a short hallway that leads up to the entrance of the manor.

It's quiet.

No one in sight.
Let's be careful. *Hibki summons her sword*
*Koakuma flies by

By the by ! I know I'm not supposed to do this, but I want to help you guys ! I like you lot so if you're in a pinch feel free to call for me ! i'll come ! (If I'm not sleeping that is)
Creepy. *he sniffs the air as he steps forward*
*Lightning works her way up the stairs without falter, though still somewhat cautiously*

Indeed...where is the rest if the group..?
( ok, please gather the whole team. since I didn't find a map, I can't gm the two separate groups if they're not clearly indicated
It's just us! They kinda disappeared! We might find them later through!
*Gamma looks a little nervous as they wave at the passing Koakuma*

D... Don't worry about it.. We wouldn't want your boss to get mad at you. We'll get this mess sorted out and... Well... Maybe I'll see you a little after. Ok?
*Hibki is following Cait*
*wakes up*
*Sees Claire*
Onee-chan!
*waves*
Koakuma nods in agreement as she disappears through a door up ahead.

As stated before, you find yourselves in the main entrance hall. It is vast, grand, and luxurious. From this point on, there are several ways you can go. Obviously, you could take large oaken staircase that leads to the second floor. Alternately, you could stay on the first floor and look around.

behind you are the large doors that lead outside. In front of you, the large staircase. Left and right of the staircase are short passages that both lead to the giant library. This leaves two other doors. One on your left and one on your right. Koakuma went through the door on the left. The door on the right seems to be somewhat battered. Not so much through frequent use but more from what seems to be... violence ? it's hard to make sure of that kind of things since you're no carpenters.

What do you do ?
Well we need to go to the roof right? I say we gun it!
*Gamma sighs as Koakuma leaves, then turns to the grand staircase*

Patchouli said that the person causing he mist is on the roof, so obviously we'll want to start on the second floor.

*Gamma quickly walks up the staircase, looking about the room*
I have a feeling that battered door ain't a good one... we better get to the roof, nya. And the stairs are the only way up.
Wait! What if they want us to take the stairs? The second floor could be one big trap.
OOC: Present
How big is this mansion anyway? Isn't there an elevator some where?
An elevator? What kinda mansion has an elevator?
( nope. no elevators. )
*Gamma turns to the group who haven't taken the stairs*

Come on. These people aren't much for traps. And I think this place is too old for an elevator. Lets just keep moving.

*Gamma eagerly bounds up the stairs*
*Cait nods and runs after Gamma*
( wellp there goes my exploration idea)
*Hibki follows up the stairs*
@Cait_Sith

Mansions totally have elevators, right? That's normal.
Ooc: rip after everything that has happened everyone is pretty eager to get beat the boss

Alright! Lets go!

*Junpei runs up the stairs
*Nana follows Lightning*
* you walk up the stairs.
The floor here encircles the main hall below, allowing you to vieuw the gorgeous mosaic depicting a scarlet rose with thorny vines surrounding it.
There don't seem to be stairs here to lead you to the roof, but you know it's right up above you. Once again there's a door on the left and a door on the right. A breeze can be felt through the gaps of the left door.
I think the left door leads outside.
Let's go through the door that isn't totally suspicious.

*she opens the door on the right*
Maybe if we go left, we can get up to the roof? Our Personas should be able to lift us up outside, nya.
OOC: This couldn't have been that surprising to you Liam

*Gamma looks around, feeling the breeze from the left door*
Maybe we should go through the left one? I mean, the roof is outside, and that door seems to le-

*Gamma notices Amami opening the other door and walks towards them with a sigh*
Or not. Well then, no need to get two things after us I guess
They did say that we have to get on the roof right? Maybe the left is the roof?
At the very least Byakko can jump.
I agree with Ami Ami.
*goes right*
Well, if we're already opening that door... *sighs and goes right*
( actually it is surprising... I love exploration. I would definitely get the loot but oh well. you do you ^^ )
*Hibki goes to the door on the right.*
OOC: Yes... join the smart side!
To the right we go then!

*Junpei follows the rest of the party towards the right door
*Lightning looks around, investigating her surroundings carefully, debating where to go. Seeing Nanaka go right though, she follows suit, working to catch up*
Update
You decide to go through the right door. You enter in a hallway with many doors. There are nameplates on each and every door.

they read as follows:

Fairy guard dormitories Meiling's room Patchouli's room
Remilia's room
Fairy servant dormitories Koakuma's room Sakuya's room


What do you do ?
@Bgammax

Ooooooh, I know what room you wanna check out first.

*she gestures to Koakuma's room*
Remilia's room... maybe we should go in there? But we may get in trouble...
*Gamma reads the signs and thinks for a moment*
It might be worth checking out the mistress's room.... Actually... I... I think we should maybe check all of them to be safe?
*Gamma walks over to the door labeled Koakuma's room, and begins to open it*
Well, this is a dead end... let's go back to the other door.
I think we should check Sakuya's room. That's who we're fighting, right? We might find something to use to our advantage. But keep in mind it could also be trapped.
*gently holds Nanaka's shoulder*

Be vigilant everyone. I don't like the layout of this corridor. Its suboptimal for efficient combat...
@Akamoto_Nanaka

We might find something we can use against our enemies. Bear with us for a sec.
I have a bad feeling about this... this reminds me of that time in the hot springs...
True. Knives ain't the best thing to get hit by. Should I use Sukukaja and open Sakuya's door?
( also, did any of you meet sakuya outside of this event ? because it's definitely the same saku, so I'll personalize the dialogue if you've met her. )
OOC: Should've brought Izaya
( also make up your minds. who goes where. you can split up if you want to)
OOC: not that I remember.
I'm ready to breach Sakuya's room. Anyone got my back?
OOC: I don't think so. They might have been in the same mementos run once. But that also could have been me watching the thread and not participating.
ooc: Cait'll use Sukukaja in case of traps and check out Sakuya's room
Well I'm going with Gamma I guess! He seems to know what he's doing!

Ooc:I don't think so

*Junpei follows Gamma
I'm in, Amami! I'll take the lead. *Summons Puss in Boots and uses Sukukaja before opening the door to Sakuya's room*
*Amami follows Cait into Sakuya's room*
( still waiting on light nana and hibki
OOC: Yes once during a mementos run on the Discord.

*readies my shield in front if Nanaka and slowly works my way forward*
OOC* I can't remember where, but yes
( well it seems to be vague, but I'll work with it. now tell me where you go you two )
*Hibki goes with Cait*
Onee-chan, let's follow Ama Ama!
*follows Amami*
*Follows as well, Shield up in front of me and Nanaka*
(update)
Our team of intrepid heroes decides to split up. They don't seem to be aware that splitting up is the number one cause of death in horror movies.

Team 1: Gamma and Stupei

Team 2: the others ( too many people -w- )

Team 1 enters Koakuma's room. It's pretty warm in here. A light cherry fragrance wafts in the air. her bed, of simple western style, is done neatly and candles burn next to it. Rose petals are scattered on the ground. Next to her bed is a small chest of drawers.

Opposite to her bed is a door. and on the right side is a glass door that leads to a balcony.
Next to the door is a large dresser.


Team 2

You enter Sakuya's room. it's a somewhat empty room. Everything is sober and severely lacking in decoration. The furnishing is the same as in koakuma's room though so a dresser, a small chest of drawers, as well as two doors.

what do you do ?
I'm getting sick of all these doors. I say we pick one and stick to it.
Should we be here.... I have a feeling Mitsuru-Senpai is going to appear behind us and execute us all...
*Cait cautiously opens the leftmost door*
Well the door that's not the balcony is probably a closet. And I'm not digging trough drawers and closets.
*Hibki slightly opens the balcony door and peeks out*
Can we go back before she comes to kill us?
*Gamma takes a whiff of the room and smiles. They turn to Junpei as they walk over to the wooden door and begin to open it*

You could just go with the others man... I'm just... Looking around. For clues of course.. You're free to leave if you want, I'll just... Stay here a little longer.
( for science !!!! amirite gamma ? )
No way! I can't leave a bro behind! You know the code!

*Junpei looks for anything out of ordinary before following Gamma
*Lightning looks around*

Again...this is a suboptimal location for an encounter..I suggest a retreat and repositioning.
update
Team 2

Cait opens the leftmost door. As he opens it, the sweet scent of shower gel wafts out of what appears to be Sakuya's bathroom. On the side, next to the tub, hangs a spare uniform.

Hibki opens Sakuya's balcony, as he walks outside, he realizes the mansion, despite only having two floors, is absurdly high. It's mind boggling really. As he looks up, he an see the roof itself seems to be miles away even though from the inside, the roof room only seems 4 meters high.

Team 1

Gamma opens the door to Koakuma's bathroom. The tub is filled with water and clothes are strewn about. It seems like someone was here recently. Maybe you barely missed her ? it smells really good though.
*Sakuya doesn't seem to be around. Well, maybe she is. But he can't smell her with the shower gel. He gets out of that room and heads back to the hallway*
Okay! That's a bit far Gamma! I know you like her, but snooping in a girls room is not the way to their heart!
Can we climb out the balcony up to the roof?
Guys come look at this structure.
I'm going back to the first door, I don't want to die.

*Nana goes to the first hall and takes the left door*
It doesn't look like it.
That's probably smart. No point in sticking around.

*Amami follows Nana to the other door*
*Hibki goes to the other room as well.*

OOC: I might have to poof for a bit. Don't wait up for me if I do.
*He looks up at Nana before following her*
update
Team 1 decides to leave their room. They open the door and walk into the hallway. But... wait. This is weird. there's only one door left. The hallway is the same, but only one door is left, remilia's.

team 2 is discussing.
*Gamma lightly punches Junpei as he's dragged out*

Hey! I wasn't going to do anything bad..... A... Anyways.... Maybe we'll get to talk to this manor's mistress now?

*Gamma walks over to the Remilia door and attempts to open it*
*He shudders* Trap. Definite trap. Let's just hurry before Sukukaja runs out.
Ow! Im just looking out for you, you know!
*still following Nanaka*
Well... someone is changing the layout of the mansion, they know we're here.
*looks for other places to go*
I guess we have to start searching for clues.

*she heads back into Sakuya's room and starts rummaging through the dressers*
( xD it's a bit late. the clues were there to indicate space distortions, but now it's painfully obvious. You could've done something about it had you not opened the door, but it's gone now. Sakuya's room no longer exists for you)
OOC: *Neru curls up in a ball and cries* 2hu is tu herd liam
うっぷでえと
(tl note: うっぷでえと means update)

Team 1:

Gamma and Junpei leave Koakuma's room and head to Remilia's room. Nothing seems out of the ordinary for them. It seems as though they're outside the space distortions
The enter the Mistress'room. It's larger then Koakuma's, the bed in a classic western style with an elegant canopy is neat and clean. There are no windows in the room but the candles prevent the darkness from setteling in. You hear a faint buzzing.

Team 2:

Mako tries to go back through the door to sakuya's room, but as she opens it, she is faced with a strange vieuw: she can see her teammates, as well as herself. Looking the other way, she notices the door to remilia's room is open, and gives acces to where she is standing.

Nana looks around desperately, but all she finds is a slight buzzing noise in the corner next to remilia's room. However, her investigations are cut short by a voice rising behind them.

[update continued in my next post. No actions please, you may however talk]
My brain hurts. This is too much.
This is like two mirrors together... nya...
Humans. I regret having to come to this, But my mistress leaves me no choice. I recognize some of you, and do know that I really enjoyed the time I spent with you. However, my oath to Lady Remilia is absolute. Nothing can alter the course of fate, not even my time manipulation can over-come her powers.

I am sorry, but I can't let you go to the roof. If you leave now, I will spare your lives. Please, accept it. I'd rather not harm you.
*In an obvious I'm not serious voice* Well that's it I guess we go.
I can understand having a contract. Heck, my species loves that stuff. But I can't just stand by and do nothing, ya know? Sorry bout this. *Draws his sword*
You'll spare our lives? Cool I'm out. Where's the exit?
*Hibki radies her sword* Time to test out my new power!
*Gamma looks around the room, as though in a daze. He walks towards the buzzing noise, paying little attention to the room itself*

That's weird... Oh well, the other rooms were gone. Lets see what that thing is.
( gamma and junpei ? are you there ? )
Im right behind you bro!

*Junpei follows Gamma
( gamma, you are in the normal world, the other rooms are not gone)
Hi Saky! Sorry, we kinda gotta, Remi-chan sounds super fun, but she's causing problems for others.....

Let'shave tea after this is over!
*smiles*
OOC: I remember Sakuya I went to her one day maid cafe.
*casually walks to the buzzing*
OOC THAT'S where Nana met her, thanks
OOC: Apparently there was a confusion with teams a while ago, now that that's sorted out... Well... Yeah. Gonna try making up for lost time..

*Gamma returns to Kaokoma's room. They quickly look around the bathroom, not opening any drawers. If nothing's there they would go back to the main room and open the dresser*
*Junpei follows Gamma and helps to search the room

This doesent feel right...
well in the bathroom, Gamma finds... Koakuma's panties laced underwear. There's also a sacrificial Jizo statue. it's a mystical artifact that grants a long life to it's bearer. It'll protect gamma from one fatal attack.

* to hibki,
Do not jest, that was merely a rethorical proposition. Even if you left now, you'd only come back to hunt down my mistress. I can not trust you. Not today.

* to cait

Then, how about you forge a contract with us ? If you join us, we'll make sure to make it worth it for you. All you need to do, is let the scarlet mist cover the nexus.

*To ama

If you truly wish to leave, I'll have to ask you to accept being locked up for a while. At least until the scarlet magic spell is complete.

* to Nana

I apologize for the inconvenience, my the mistress won't change her mind about this. tea does sound nice however. I recently bought a new blend that goes perfectly with british scones.

Sadly, it'll have to wait until the spell is completed. I will stall you for as long as it takes !
What is this mist anyways? If we're not leaving what does it do?
@Sakuya_Izayoi

Tch. What a pain. I thought you wanted to avoid fighting.

*she takes her God Arc off her shoulder and it's weight slams on the ground as she gets in a combat stance*
*Hibki pulls out a mini figurine of a dragons head* You really don't want to mess with me. This thing will destroy the whole mansion if need be.
The mist is of no concern to you. it is solely for the benefit of my master.

I do want to avoid it. If you stay still for three hours, all will be over and dealt with.
*Gamma blushes visibly upon seeing the panties. But they still think to grab the obvious magical artifact (the Jizo statue, for anyone confused) and run out*

Oh... OH god... I went too far didn't I?....
I must look like such a creep.... I shouldn't have taken the statue... Now they'll know.... I....... Lets just get to Remilia... W... We know where the room is.

*Gamma runs back to Remilia's room and looks for the source of the mysterious ticking noise*
Go ahead and use it. The mansion can be rebuilt.
Uh huh, I mean im not judging! Were pals right? All the way to the end!

*Junpei hold out his hand for a fist bump before going to Remilias room
It's more for the sake of the others. *She puts it away before focusing intently*
Sorry, one contract per demon. We gotta fight you, so let's get on with it! *Puss in Boots appears behind him, rapier ready to strike*
if you insist.

* she takes out the knives in her knife-holding thing attached to her thigh and enters a battle stance but doesn't attack.
*Gamma shakes his head. He doesn't oblige Junpei until They're almost at Remilia's room*

You know what... Whatever man. You want to see me as a friend... I really don't mind.
You know I liked you better as a maid.
I still am a maid. But this time, I'm not on your side. ( you can keep talking all you want, she's waiting for you guys to make the first move. As stated before, she only wants to stall for time)
That's more like it. Puss in Boots, Sukukaja me!


ooc: gotta eat so support sukukaja gooo
*Junpei seems a bit disappointed but still smiles back

No worries! We are in this together!
*A dragon shaped energy stream seems to be gathering around Hibki* Let's try this new power.
( I'm sorry guys but I have to go. ask star to take over for me when you see her)
OOC: Sorry man, I'll make sure to let them know kinda what's happening.
OOC: sorry I disappeared.
(okay, I'm here to kick your asses now. Attack when ready.)
Ooc: im here!

Hey Gamma? Do you know where are the others?
ooc: Back!

*is using Sukukaja on himself*
Remember, you asked for this.

++Action++

*she unleashes a fiery barrage of her blaze rounds into Sakuya*

[single target, colossal Fire damage]
*Gamma sighs as he looks for the source of the ticking noise*

How on earth would I know that? You've been with me the entire time. If anything you've probably been paying more attention to what they were doing.
I look forward to tea later!

++Action++
Runs away from the other's and Fires a field of electricity around herself
Welp it was worth a shot! I guess we will enter Rumias room was it?
(I guess Hibki isn't going to show up, so...yeah, to be perfectly honest, I was pulled from watching a stream, and it was a damn good stream. So yeah... prepare for Rumia EX because i have no idea how to do Sakuya other than make her silent.)
OOC: Im peacing out Star, if you really want to, put Ami and auto attack, but dont worry about it
OOC: back sorry.

*The energy seems to be flowing faster into Hibki*
*you all hear a strange noise. It sounds like...the JJBA ending? You don't know why, but you feel like this is a TO BE CONTINUED moment.*
