OOC: Hello and welcome to the long awaited finale to the Infected Mig arc. A few things before we get started. I reserve the right to not take a million people along (aiming probably 6-8), though joining will be more or less open if there's vacancies until near the very end. If you have to leave please just leave a post saying so so I can not wait for you and open a slot. We're going to be using the Narrative Update Battle System this time around, though I would like to request that especially for custom or physical attacks you do mention if they're light/med/heavy/severe/grave damage, and how many times they hit.
IC: Near the planetarium, there is a research institute. The sign outside normally reads Haven Institute. But today, that sign has changed. Someone took the E off the end and put it after the H, so now it reads Heaven Institut.
Mariko, the desk worker there, seems to have not noticed the change, typing away at a computer as a stack of waivers sits in front of her.
While on Televisions across the Nexus, an advertisement played out. Showing the new sign and asking for volunteers to be test subjects in the "future of combat training."
Migrant, for her part, stares at the sign outside before ultimately muttering, "It is time..."
Welcome to Phansite archive (beta)
You'll find here all archived threads from the Phansite forum.
OOC: I'm in, I'm gonna read now.

*Yu walks into the institute and walks up to the counter.*
So, more volunteer work? I'll help if I can. This place has me intrigued after all.

*Gamma walks by the institute, he laughs as the apparent joke on the sign before noticing Mig and the others. Gamma turns away for a moment, but ultimately walks up to the group*
Well this certainly looks exciting. I take it we're going to check this place out?

Oh, yes. We're putting the finishing touches on our simulations, so help from someone of your caliber would be greatly appreciated.
*She then looks at the others arriving, before stopping and staring at Mig*
Ah, a good sized group already. Please, just take a seat and we should be able to get started shortly... *she glances about, but her gaze always falls back on Mig...*

Oh, Em. *she seemed surprised to see him come along* And... Gamma too?
Geeze, you guys are as weird as Tatsu suddenly...

Hey, you see that someone messed with your sign outside...?

Is that so? Some local kids must have played a prank or something on us... it happens all the time.
*She then looks over at Yu as if to distract herself from Mig*
Questions? Very well.... what questions?

[Honoka steps inside, scribbling on a small, pocket-sized notebook. He looks up and observes his surroundings, and bites on the tip of his pen.]
This is where that weird broadcast said to go. Combat training, hm? I could use it, and this seems interesting.

*Gamma takes a seat and turns to Aitome*
And why would you care if I come along? You know I don't do group things very well... But, well... Not like I'm doing anything else.

Well, I'd like to know exactly where all the data for these tests are going. I understand that this is a battle simulator of sorts but who see's all this data? If I'm taking part in these tests than I have the right to know that, don't I?

I only commented on it Pinky, why are you getting so agitated? I thought you were the one who didnt like to make a noise.
I see... a prank, huh? Some kids changed your no doubt expensive sign to read Heaven instead of Haven... *gives Yu a nudge of encouragement and sits down by the thers*
It's fine that you come along. Just it's new, almost like you learned some big life lesson recently.
It's fine that you come along. Just it's new, almost like you learned some big life lesson recently.
As I told you, the results go to the Doctor in charge of this research. Dr. Oshiro.
You signed away your right to withhold the data already in your last waiver, anyway....

*Deflecting off the issue?*

I'm sure this is it. Let's just let Yu do what he does best, talk people into submission.

Hold on a second. We're expected to just do these trails without knowing the who the doctor in charge is? Don't we at least have the right to speak to him?

Well thats not suspicious, if you have nothing the hide why are you getting so flustered.

*Em takes a seat and begins creating different objects of light in his hand, before looking to Migrant.*
Can you tell what this place is, Mig? Like, outside the little blurb out front, I don't really know what I'm inside of right now. Doesn't have to be too fancy, just a little info s'all I need.

F-fine. I can arrange that now, then. Otherwise you could have met with him after but I'll ring for him...
*she hits a button on the desk and waits for a moment, before, as if getting some mental signal, she continues*
The Doctor will see you n---
*there's a loud bang, one that most people could probably guess the origin of right away.*
*A lengthy pause...*
*And Mariko slumps down onto her desk. Laying for a moment before bursting into nothing but shadows...*

I can't say I'm very comfortable with one, but I like to think I can carry my weight. I'll be fine. Let's go.

You sure? Because someone just got shot, and now magic's getting involved. But hey, not really my problem if you get hurt.
*Gamma leans back in his chair and looks at shadowMig*
So why do you look so vastly different from our Mig?

Ah, you weren't there the other day, were you? I know all about you, Truthseeker. I heard from my Other Half, and from Nyarlathotep.

Now, you all want to 'kick my ass' probably? Make me go back to poor little Princess there? Well, if you want to, then come into Heaven.

The group collectively attacks the shadows with whatever they had. Pale and White drop first, as the group may hear what sounds like a loudspeaker come on...*
"You struggle to be recognized. You fight to be great. I have seen your precious Dojos and Gyms, I have seen you destroy Palaces for no reason than you could. In your desire for conquest, you have become divided. And a house divided cannot stand against the coming darkness."
*then a pause...*
"Death is the ultimate fate of the Nexus. Even now you aspire to inflict death upon the Sin of Greed, and soon you will turn your blades to Envy, Emptiness, Pride, and Sloth. Two of your companions have fallen, you aspire to kill Gods innumerable. In your corruption, you will slay the Nexus itself, in its final act of satisfying your wishes."
*The attack doesn't end there, though. Red falls next before ultimately, barely, the final rider dies. Two more recordings play in response ot this...*
"You will eventually fight each other. Perhaps some of you already have. Your differences in opinions, in goals, and in methods will lead your noble group to fracture and war. If a house divided cannot stand, a house at war is no house at all. And the Gods of Darkness will delight in encouraging your conflict."
*Another pause...*
"All people will suffer equally when you fail. The growing tumor of darkness will consume the heart, and the Nexus will be consumed by Shadows. Any who have strength enough to resist, will be purged. The lost Goddess and the lost God will vanish, and the Nexus will once more belong to chaos."
*And then... silence.... well that and the gate creeking open to reveal the stairs that the Shadow Migrant took.*

Phew... did you really have to kill them all at once? I mean, I expected you to do so, or you wouldn't be worthy to be my Other. But still, that was a lot of talking.
Anyway, do you understand now? Do you see what I am? Why this place must exist? This Heaven is entirely digital, nothing here to be corrupted by Nyarlathotep and his Infection.
He is killing the Nexus, his infection and his minions are tearing you all apart! But you're all unable to face him. The Darkness grows more powerful every day, every tick of the clock, while the Light has become distracted with fighting Sins, with fighting the Lost God, and with fighting ITSELF.
That is why I created Haven Institute. I had seen Ene's fake worlds, and I had to harnass that power to make a safe place where you all could live in peace with me...
*The group begins to reach the top of the stairs, revealing a grand altar gazing out over a sea of clouds. At which stands Shadow Migrant, nowhere left to run...*

So, your answer is to run away rather than face the darkness head on?
What good will that do? Even if we could live in a digital world forever, would people really be happy with that?
It sounds more to me like you're scared than anything else.

Ill be honest, I have no idea what your talking about, however I do understand one thing, how would you prevent all the things that are "happening", you cant stop the endless fight between good and evil, it will always continue, I think Black Mask already understands that though, so lets stop mincing words and start clashing blades!

You all do not understand. The Nexus is already beyond saving.
*he looks Mig dead in the eyes*
Do you really intend to abandon everyone in need? When Nyarlathotep succeeds, the Nexus... no, all worlds, will be destroyed. Even if you can stop his army, there will be nothing left for you here. Just a Martyr to a cause no one will ever remember.

*And then, to ice the cake, the blue light slices through the Shadow, dispelling lies and creating.... nothing?*
Enough.... ENOUGH!
*The shadow swings it's arms outward as a massive shockwave ripples across the battlefield, sending the combatants to the very edge. Before reaching down and looking like he were trying to summon up some great magic....*

Well this sucks. Oh wait I can fly. Meh, I'm not going to attack anyway. This is a one on one fight now, and I have honor.
*Aitome is blasted back, his body his the wall hard, his thief clothing looking more tattered than usual, barely holding consciousness
Tch, you got this Black Mask..
*Aitome struggles to get up but simply fails and stays on the ground
You know what you have to do...

*Honoka lays flat on his face, and gives a simple thumbs up to Mig.*
*He flys back into the wall and groans in pain... then slowly stands up and casts Curega before letting out a sigh of relief* Tch that was fun. Now I just gotta get over there. *He examines the platforms for a way into the top*
*He looks over to Star in horror*
Honor? Honor doesn't mean a thing to me if people's lives are in danger. *He stares at her with conviction* In the end honor isn't something anyone should put before other people.

Gah....you can do this Mig! We believe in you! And we aren't going anywhere! We're friends aren't we? You're stuck with me whether you like it or not!!

*Yu drops to his knees and begins breathing heavily.*
It's all up to... you now, Migrant...
It's all up to... you now, Migrant...
*Stares down the Shadow....*
Yeah... just the two of us....
*After a pause, the two charge at each other! Locking blades once again. Pushing on each other's blade for a moment, they ultimately both jump back.*
"You think just because I'm some shadow that I have to be wrong!? You know that I'm right! You know everything around here is the truth! You even said so!"
*The shadow conjurs two swords made of shadow and attacks again, in a desperate flurry of hits that Mig can just barely handle.... it's almost like watching Em beat up on her again...*
*Mig just keeps trying to block.... even looking about ready to give up.... before a pause in the onslaught gives her a chance.*
Okuninushi! Garudyne!
*A whirlwind kicks up under both fighters, as their clash moves to the air for the brief moments they can be held aloft by the Persona's skill. For just a moment, Mig looks toward the group, before a kick from the Shadow sends her dropping back to the platform below...*

"Tch, see?"
*The Shadow lands on his feet next to Migrant, pointing a blade right at Mig's neck.*
"You really are nothing compared to them. Everything would have been so much better if you'd just tried defying fate with me. Now... well it looks like this fate won't even be happening. You'll die here, pinned to the very fate you so hated."
*But before the final blow could be struck, something... unusual happened. A crack, so miniscule that perhaps not even Roxas would notice it. A single chain split by the crack, as Mig started to speak.*
You're right, actually.... you really are my Shadow.... every time I've been faced with what seems impossible, and every time I've wanted to give up. Every time I questioned why I exist when I came from nowhere. And every time I feared the answer was simply nothing....
*With every instance rattled off, it seemed the crack was growing. Covering multiple chains now, clearly visible.*
But there is one thing you have wrong about me... I'm not empty. I'm not just a pawn to be used by Succoth, and left here in the aftermath...
*She closes her eyes and lays for a moment....*
This heart is FAKE!
*And as the word fake echoed in the darkness, the platform.... shattered, and the group plunges through the darkness.*

I understand where you're coming from, Roxas, but I'm sure Mig has this. And honor in a battle to the death is a pretty big thing, let me tell you. It shows the will to live and the true power of the fighters, as well as their resolve. As a goddess, I would know first hand about what honor truly means in a situation such as this. As such, I have full confidence in Mig that she can obtain the best outcome in this situation. *A holy aura surrounds Star* ah, I'm being a bit too much like a goddess now, how embarrassing.
*After what could have been seconds, but could have felt far longer, something catches the group... a new platform. Gone is the chained Migrant and the ruined city. This platform.... was the truth.

Heh, you stole the show Black Mask... and I thought my entire thing was abouta cracks and pain...
*Aitome slowly gets up, still heavily injured
*Aitome slowly gets up, still heavily injured
*He scoffs* Yay I believe in her too, but that doesn't mean I won't try ta make it easier! Gears of time give us speed! *He summons a clock above her that turns all around then vanishes massively raising her speed* I probably can't get involved but kick his ass!
*Honoka exhales, and turns around to sit up.*
Man, this was too much action for me. I just wanted some info, and all I got was an ass beating. Ah well, at least it was a good experience.

*Kalib lands on the new platform, dropping to his knees due to exhaustion.*
I thought so! Finish this! Dinner's on me tonight Mig! So let's go!
*Kalib struggles to shout but wears a confident smile.*

Hmm? What an odd platform. I wonder, what will happen now that we are here? And why am I not on the platform itself? I feel left out. I had this speech about how I believed in her from the bottom of my heart and how I wish to help her face the hardships of life. Whatever the case, I give her my true blessings as a goddess, and as a friend! *The holy aura around Star becomes stronger*
*As the group gets themselves situated on their new footing, Mig and the Shadow face off again. A charge, a blade lock, a prolonged one at that.... before Mig's blade is ultimately forced out of her hand and onto the platform....*
"A meaningless gesture... I am a Shadow... the true self. Though your heart may change, though you may defy fate, I am your fears personified.....
I am your downfall."
*And the shadow charges Migrant, but Mig.... just grabs the shadow's arm. It's a move she'd tried on Em, and failed, but with a little help from her friends.... well she twists the arm around, before taking a knee and forcibly dislodging one of the Shadow's own swords. She grabs it, and with a simple stand and turn... slices the Shadow down the middle...*

"All I ever wanted... all I was ever made for... was to protect their lives, to protect their wishes.... to make their new home.... home...."
*And then there's another flash of blinding light and the group is in the lobby of Haven Institute. Mig laying in the middle of the room.... breathless.*

OOC: If you weren't on discord. That's the last of the mega updates so you may now RP freely again. :P
*Aitome dragging his feet along the floor, in his regular clothes, now simply puts a hand in Migrants shoulder, and smiles
Nice one, Migrant, I think that's the only time I'm going to remember your name, so you better treasure it.

*Yu stands up and regains his composure.*
I knew you could do it, Migrant. I believed in you from the very start. The truth can never be concealed for long.

*Kalib struggles to stand but shuffles over to Mig before taking a knee.*
Hey....Hey....come one! Wake up!
*He tries to shake her.*
Thermopylae's Vigor!
*Leo appears with a roar and covers Mig in healing light.*
Wake up!

*Yu looks over Migrant.*
Hey, Migrant? You okay?
*He checks her pulse and his eyes show panic.*
She's not breathing!

Mig? Migrant?!

*Aitome's smile immediately turns to a frown
I know your stronger than this, get up! Your not leaving us now!

*Yu regains his composure once again.*
You passed out, are you alright?
You passed out, are you alright?
I believe she has obtained the best outcome, but I can't be sure. Only time will tell if this is the outcome we are all happy with. For now, let us head to LeBlanc. I will make us all a nice dessert for all our hard work today! *The holy aura is really strong now*
Yeah.... actually, I feel better than I have.... ever....
I feel whole. I feel whole!
I feel whole. I feel whole!
*He laughs and throws his hands behind his head* Geez you had us worried there, well I'm glad you're alright. *He smiles at her* So anyways where to next guys?
Ah! Damn you!
*Aitome lighty taps Black Mask with his fist before getting up and storming off a bit
Idiot! I said your name and you didn't even hear it! I'm never saying it again if your going to pretend to die!
*Aitome lighty taps Black Mask with his fist before getting up and storming off a bit

Oh, thank the gods...
*He flicks Mig on the forehead before standing back up.*
You need to work on not pretending to die, miss. You almost gave us a heart attack...
And... wow. You actually used the thing you tried on me! Congrats, I suppose.

*Honoka walks over to his discarded gun, picks it up and uses a handkerchief to polish the scratches it received during the fight. He finishes, and puts it back in it's holster at his side.*
Man, this was a pain in the ass.
*He claps his hands together to dust them off.*
Welp, that about wraps this up, I guess.

*He looks down with a smile and teary eyes.*

Well, I think I'll skip out on Leblanc. There's still something I need to check up on right now...
*Yu puts his hand to his chin.*
There are still some things that don't add up about everything that's going on.
*Yu put's his hands down and begins walking out the door.*

*Yep, she's back to normal for sure.*
*Yep, she's back to normal for sure.*
Fine, yeah, never again.... besides, aren't I immune to this shadow stuff now?

Something that doesn't add up?

Alright I'll see you Gray hair! But honestly, I try to be nice, but every single time! I should stop being nice to you guys!
*he frowns at Yu* Aw come on man relax, I mean I don't really know most you guys cept Mig, Ai too sorta but not real well. *He grins as his Keyblades vanish* But come on we just won shouldn't you take a break?
Just a few things I need to check on, it's nothing to worry about. I've got it handled.
*Yu smiles at Migrant as he leaves the Institute.*

Oh right! I gotta go do some grocery shopping! I'm making curry for dinner! Ciao!
*Kalib limps out of the building.*

Don't worry about him Blondie, he's a mysterious guy that works in strange ways, he'll come by later! At any rate, we should celebrate! Why don't we go back to that beach? We had a lot of fun last time!
*suddenly isn't a succubus anymore, and is now wearing a very nice dress, something a goddess would wear* ah, it appears I'm no longer a succubus. My goddess aura must have changed me back to normal. I shall head to LeBlanc and start preparing dessert. And Yu is most certainly right about things not adding up. For now, I believe we should relax and enjoy the rest of the day. *Walks out of the building with that aura of hers getting stronger and stronger*
*He shakes his head, and tugs on the cuffs of his shirt.*
Man, what a waste of my time this turned out to be. Still no info on that weird case, nor any clues as to who I am. What a shame. At least I got to help someone out. Whatever, I'll be seeing you guys.
*He waves and walks out of the building.*

*He calls after Kalib* Hey pal I think you should take it easy! We can't all be made of nothing and that limp looks kinda bad.
I think I'm just gonna take it easy for now.... I promised Joker to go someplace different tomorrow, anyway.
