Thread Archives:http://suptg.thisisnotatrueending.com/archive.html?searchall=Mobile+x+DestinyIRC on rizon @ #mxdLast time on Mobile X Destiny, Anon-kun had an interesting morning with Miyuki, and Anon-kun was reminded by Chiyo that Anon-kun had school today. After freaking out, Anon-kun got dressed and was ready to go, only to then be told by Chiyo that school was cancelled due to a carbon monoxide leak in the math classroom. Making a phone call to Sayuri, Anon-kun invited her over, and asked Sayuri to call Roslyn and invite her over as Anon-kunll. Tonight is the night Anon-kun gets to share his cooking skills. Right?...Right?

You're lying on the couch relaxing. "I don't know how long it will take for the others to get here." You feel your stomach growl, and you grimace."Hungry?" Chiyo asks."A little bit," you say. "We went running this morning, so... yeah.""You should get something to eat," Chiyo points out. "At least some toast.""I suppose that's true," you say, "But... With all of you here..."[ ] Offer to make breakfast for everyone[ ] Make breakfast for yourself[ ] See what Miyuki is up to[ ] Stay on the couch

"I guess I should make breakfast, huh?" you ask. "I could make breakfast for everyone since I've got the time.""Really?" Chiyo asks. "I mean, I could do it. You said you were going to make dinner for us, so you don't have to make breakfast, too...""It's not a big deal," you say with a grin. You stand up and strech. "Breakfast is pretty simple to make a lot of, depending on what gets made."You hear footsteps on the stairs. You look up and see Miyuki coming down. "You've got some interesting books up there, Anon-kun."You shrug. "What can I say? I'm a man of varying tastes.""You can say that again," Miyuki says with a teasing glint in her eyes."Mhmm. Anyway, I'm going to go make breakfast." You head into the kitchen and start gathering things to make breakfast. As you're setting things out, you look up and see Chiyo and Miyuki watching you. "What is it?" you ask."Can we help?" they both ask.[ ] Sure[ ] No, go wait patiently in the living room[ ] Do what you want.
>>20094327[X] SureDinner can be an anon-kun only thing.

>>20094327[ ] No, go wait patiently in the living roomAnon-kun is a master of his art. They can sit back and be in awe of him, as they should.
"Sure. The more the merrier, right?" You move aside and you and the girls all start to prepare breakfast. "I'm thinking we can make some French toast," you say."That sounds amazing," Miyuki says."This is going to be different, though," you say with a small smile. "We're going to use croissants.""Eh?" Chiyo looks a little confused."Just trust me." As you're all working, you hear a knock at the door. "I guess they're here.""I'll get it," Miyuki says. She leaves briefly and then returns with Sayuri and Roslyn."Good morning~" Sayuri says happily."Hi everyone," Roslyn says. "Oh, are you making breakfast?" she asks."Yep. It's getting close to done, too. I'm making enough for everyone," you confirm."Onii-chan is the best!" Sayuri says, clapping her hands together.You make a plate for everyone, and once everyone is seated, you all dig in. "This is perfect," Roslyn says. "Thank you, Anon-kun."[ ] It's no problem.[ ] I can't take all the credit. I had help.[ ] Smile and nod silently.
>>20094666[X] I can't take all the credit. I had help.

[ ] Smile and nod silently.Smile that devilish half-smile that you've spent so long perfecting.
[x] I can't take all the credit. I had help.
"I can't take all the credit," you say with a shrug. "Miyuki and Chiyo both helped me."Roslyn looks at all three of you, smiles, and bows her head. "Well, thank you, all of you, for making breakfast. It's delicious.""You did great!~" Sayuri says, giving everyone a thumbs up.Everyone smiles and laughs, and you all enjoy your breakfast. Once everyone is done, you collect the dishes and wash them, then join the girls in the living room. "...go to the mall." You see Chiyo is talking to the girls, and you manage to piece together she's telling them what she told you."The mall sounds like fun," Roslyn says. "I haven't been to one in awhile. In fact, I haven't visited a Japanese mall before.""Ohh~ you're going to love it!" Sayuri exclaims. "It's so fun~""Well," Miyuki says, looking to you. "Are you up for this too, Anon-kun?"[ ] Sure, why not?[ ] Not really. I just sort of want to relax.[ ] I don't care one way or another.
>>20094913[ ] Sure, why not?Fuck yes shopping! We can get some new shirt and let the girls help us pick them out. New wardrobe engage.
>>20094913>[ ] Sure, why not?Plot hook senses tingling.
[X] Sure, why not?
[x] Sure, why not?
>>20094913[X] Sure, why not?There seems to be potential of them asking if they look good in one skimpy outfit or another, I'm down for that.
>>20094913[ ] Sure, why not?
"Sure, why not?" you reply. "It could be fun.""Ohh~! When should we leave?" Sayuri asks."Well it's almost 9:30," Chiyo observes, "So we could go whenever. We might even be able to catch a movie or something.""I'm all for that," Roslyn says."Me too," Miyuki says, standing up. "Let's go." The girls drag you out of your house and down to the mall. As you're weaving in and out of stores, Sayuri tugs on your shirt."Anon-kun?" she asks."What is it, Sayuri?""I just remembered that I need to buy some paints and stuff for the stall~" she says with a sad look on her face. "Do you think you could help me?~"Roslyn walks up to you both. "What's going on?" she asks."I was asking Anon-kun if he wanted to help me with something for our class's stall~" Sayuri tells her."Oh? I can help, too," Roslyn says."So is onii-chan going to help~?" Sayuri asks again.[ ] Yes yes... lead on.[ ] Where are the others?[ ] No, I think you two can handle it.
>>20095418[X] Yes yes... lead on.Although it would probably be wise to tell the others where we be going.
>>20095418[X] Where are the others?
>>20095418[ ] Where are the others?Make sure they know where you're going
[X] Yes yes... lead on.
[x] Where are the others?
[ ] Yes yes... lead on.Follow the loli, lest a chance for huggage should occur in our absence.
>>20095418[x] Where are the others?
"Well, uh... Where are the others?" you ask quickly."Miyuki took Chiyo to go look at swimsuits," Roslyn says. "They kind of vanished, so...""They can call us if they need us, right Anon-kun?~" Before you can respond, Sayuri takes your hand and leads you into a hobby shop. Without missing a beat, she starts making a list of things she needs and goes about grabbing it all.Roslyn looks at things, a bored look on her face. You watch her examine everything, and that's when she seems to freeze. You head over to her. "What's up?" you ask."Ever get that feeling like you're being watched?" she asks."Er... sometimes." You don't want to admit you were just watching her. "You have that feeling right now?"She nods. "Yeah..." You look around casually, and you see a man walk into the store. You notice two things about him immediately: he has silver hair and he's wearing an all-black set of clothing. You both briefly lock eyes, and before you can do anything, he vanishes behind a shelf. He pops out on the other side and appears to be glancing at Roslyn casually, so much so that you aren't entirely sure if he's actually looking that way or not.Roslyn looks over at him and notices him looking her way. She intertwines her arm with yours and clings to you. "Anon-kun," she whispers, "Can we get Sayuri and get out of here?"[ ] Get Sayuri and go.[ ] "It's okay, nothing is going to happen."[ ] Break free from her contact and approach the guy.
>>20095993[X] Get Sayuri and go.
[X] Get Sayuri and get the fuck outta there.

[X] Break free from her contact and approach the guy.Face that bastard
[x] Break free from her contact and approach the guy.
>>20095993[ ] Get Sayuri and go.If she has a bad feeling, its time to get gone
You nod. "Hey Sayuri," you say, heading over towards her. "Can you buy your stuff so we can go?""Why~?" she asks, confused. She sees Roslyn's face and tilts her head. "Is something wrong?""We can discuss this later," you tell her. "Come on.""Okay okay..." She makes her payments and you help her carry the stuff out of the store. The three of you keep walking and you eventually bump into Miyuki and Chiyo."Hey, there you guys are," Chiyo says. "We lost sight of you when you three earlier.""Yeah... Sayuri needed to buy some stuff," you say. You notice Roslyn is still clinging to your arm. "What's wrong?" you ask her."That guy... He really creeps me out," she says. "Something about him... I don't know.""Well he looked strange, I'll give you that," you say. "But I don't think it's that big of a deal.""Actually, it is," you hear from behind you.
>>20095993>[ ] Get Sayuri and go.Time for the white knight to evacuate the fair maidens.
You turn around and see that same man staring you down. "Eh?""I believe you have something that belongs to my boss," he says to you. "I'd like it back so I can return it.""What are you talking about?" You don't like this guy's tone, and whenever he talks, you feel Roslyn's grip on your arm tighten."The Gear," the man says calmly. "I'd you to hand it over without any trouble. If you do, we can walk away from each other. Nothing will happen, no one will be harmed. I promise you that. If, however, you decline..." He trails off and gestures to the people in the mall. Then he gestures to you and the girls. "Well... I can't guarantee everyone's safety if I have to secure the Gear."You look at Roslyn, and she's actually shivering. You look back at this man, and you consider your options.[ ] Play dumb[ ] Play the hero[ ] Act in your self-interest

You decide to stand up to this guy. You don't know who the hell he is, nor what he intends to do, but you know one thing for sure: you don't like it. "I don't know who the hell you think you are, but I'm not going to believe that you'd make this easy.""Oh, you're one of THOSE types of people, aren't you?" he asks with a sneer. "Well then, let me inform you of who I am. My name is Ramius Baldur. I'm one of those individuals that loves his job, you see. I'm thorough, much to my employer's enjoyment." He takes a relaxed stance. "As for making things easy or not, that falls on you. Just give me the Gear, and then you can be on your way.""No." You stand in front of Roslyn. "I'm not letting you take anyone or anything. Get the fuck away from us."He sighs. "I guess this is going to play out like it always does, isn't it?" he asks rheorically. "Fine. I'm game. I'll give you the chance to decide where this plays out, though." He seems very calm despite his threats. "Do you want to do this here? Or maybe outside? Or do you not care?" His eyes narrow as he examines you.You look to the girls who all appear to be apprehensive. You don't want to get them involved in this at all, and no matter what you tell this Ramius guy, you're going to get them out of here.[ ] Outside.[ ] Right here, right now[ ] I don't give a fuck, you bastard
[x] Right here, right now

[X] Right here, right now
OH, I remember this part. We've skipped several segments that would have made the upcoming clusterfuck pan out easier. Awesome.
>>20096758i don't think its about gaining an advantage, its more about avoiding involving people who are at the mall. we are at a significant disadvantage of having to avoid collateral if we fight inside.
>>20096707[X] Outside.
You turn to the girls. "Get out of here, all of you." You add that extra bit to Roslyn."Anon-kun...!" You see Chiyo's worried expression. "Why are you always doing this... You better not get hurt!""I'll be fine," you say, popping your knuckles. "All of you, go.""Anon-kun, was it?" Ramius asks with a sadistic grin. "I think you'll be seven kinds of things other than 'fine.'""Shut the fuck up," you growl. "We're going to throw down right here, right now.""Oh, I'm rather surprised. Most people would opt on avoiding a public area for their grave." He tilts his head as he examines you. "You seem average enough. I suppose I can take it easy on you.""Who the hell do you think I am!?" you shout. You glance back at the girls, who are fleeing. You see Roslyn is the last one away, and you both lock eyes. You nod, and she nods back. She turns and pulls the nearby fire alarm switch, sending the alarms blaring."Clever girl," Ramius says with a grin. "Very well." You feel a your heart make one beat, and he rushes you, firmly putting his fist into your gut. The force of the impact lifts you off the ground slightly, and you grunt in pain. He pulls his fist back and, taking a step back, swings his left leg out and connects with your right side. The impact sends you sprawling on to your back. "You went down much easier than I thought," he says mockingly. "I wonder..." He stops and tilts his head again. "Seems we have a straggler."
You turn your head to see Sayuri standing there, looking very upset. "Anon-kun!" She rushes over to you and kneels down. "Oh Anon-kun... Are you okay?""I'm...fine," you mutter, forcing yourself up. "What are you still doing here!? Get the fuck out of here, Sayuri!""N-no... Your hurt!" she says, tears in her eyes. "Your ribs are broken." Well, that would explain the pain. At this point, though, you're able to push the pain out of your mind. You feel a pair of small hands touch your ribs, and an icy sensation floods over your body. You turn to see Sayuri staring intently at your side, and her hands glowing."Oh? That's strange," Ramius says as he approaches the two of you. "It appears there was more than two Gears here." He reaches down and grabs Sayuri by the collar of her shirt and pulls her up. "I think I'd rather take you," he says, venom dripping from his words. "You look like you wouldn't put up much of a fight."You stand up, your ribs feeling better, and you launch yourself at Ramius. "Let go of her you fucking asshole!" He drops Sayuri and you manage to land a firm hit on Ramius' chin. He takes a few steps back then looks at you.
Shiiit.
"You don't know when to quit, do you?" He meets you back in the fight, each of you exchanging blows. His hits are far stronger than your own, and you're the only one that actually seems to be phased from being hit. "You're terribly weak," he says with a grin. "Get out of my sight, pleb." He turns and backhands you with enough force to send you sprawling yet again. As you try to get back up, you feel a boot connect with your shoulder blades. "Stay down and let your betters do as they will.""Fuck... you..." You don't understand where all your strength went. Every time you try to force yourself up, Ramius' boot digs into your back more and more."Now then," he says absentmindedly. "You, girl. Your name was Sayuri, wasn't it?" You don't hear her response, but you hear Ramius' reaction. "Hahaha... Struggle all you want, girl. You're going to come with me. No, I don't care how many times you say it, I won't put you down." You get up enough to see Ramius looking back at you. "I'll let you live for now, boy." The way he calls you boy doesn't even bother you. The fact he's handling Sayuri in that way, though... You feel your blood start to boil. "Just lay down and let things sink in. Thanks for bringing me a new Gear, though. You've been most helpful." You struggle to your feet, and you see Ramius pointing a gun at you. "I think you should rest." You take a step toward him and stumble, which somehow helps you dodge the bullet that gets fired from his gun.
"Seems your luck still hasn't run out. I'm impressed. Fine," he says with a shrug, putting his gun away. "I guess I'll kill you later... Once I've collected the other Gear, however, I will end you." You take a few more steps towards him, your hand balling into a fist. You're able to regain your senses and you rush him, unsure of what else to really do. You have no real advantage here. You just need to stop him. You need to save Sayuri. You can hear her crying, her struggling, against the fate that put her into this situation."Boy, you don't learn!" Ramius turns to you and sidesteps your charge. You feel pain in your neck, and then everything around you goes black.The last thing you hear is Sayuri crying your name before you hit the ground.
We'd better grab a crobar or a knife before we take this guy on again.
You wake up outside on the ground, and you see Roslyn towering over you, tears streaming down her face. Everything about you feels terrible. Suddenly, everything comes flooding back into your head as you recall what happened. "Where's Sayuri!?" you exclaim."He... Took her," Roslyn says through her sobs.You see Miyuki kneeling down next to Roslyn, pulling her into an embrace. "Shh, shh... We'll figure this out..." Surprisingly enough, Roslyn actually calms down a bit. "That's better..."You look up at Chiyo who is staring off into the distance. She looks... Absolutely livid. You've never seen that much anger in her eyes before. You stand up and sigh, trying to think of something.[ ] Let's regroup back at my house and come up with a plan.[ ] What are you thinking, Chiyo?[ ] What should we do?
[x] What are you thinking, Chiyo?

[X] What are you thinking, Chiyo?Then regroup at base
"What are you thinking, Chiyo?" you ask her.She turns to you with that same look of anger in her eyes. "I want to get Sayuri back," she says. "And I hate the bastard that took her.""I do, too," you say, keeping your tone even. "But that guy, Ramius... He just tossed me aside like it was nothing."Chiyo sighs explosively. "I don't even know what to do. Standing around doesn't accomplish anything, though, I know that much.""What about the police?" Miyuki asks."If he's with the Syndicate," Roslyn says slowly, "Then I doubt we can get anything done through legal channels... In the past, the police forces have looked the other way. I think something similar happened last time," she adds when she looks at you. That means the cafe..."Dammit," you mutter. "Let's head back to the house to think of something." The girls all agree, and you head back.[ ] "I think now is the right time to ask..."[ ] "What should we do now?"[ ] Look to the girls for some sort of guidance.
>>20097519[X] "I think now is the right time to ask..."
>>20097519>[ ] "I think now is the right time to ask..."we need to find out every resource available to us
>>20097519[X] "I think now is the right time to ask..."Okay, Mobile Gears. Who among you is or has one, tell me everything you know about them.
>>20097519[ ] "I think now is the right time to ask..."Get it all out in the open.
[X] "I think now is the right time to ask..."I guess it's time...
[x] "I think now is the right time to ask..."
You bring the girls into the living room and sit them down. "Okay, if this is going to be a problem in the future, I'd like to take the time right now and ask. Gears. Mobile Gears." You look to Roslyn. "Do either of you have one? If Roslyn does and if Sayuri had one, I need to know if either of you have one as well. If you do, you are a potential target for the Destiny Syndicate, and I want to make sure he never finds out."Miyuki and Chiyo look at each other. Chiyo speaks up first. "I believe I have one," she says calmly. "I never really knew what it was called, but in the past, I've done something beyond strange. I've... changed before.""Into a car?" Roslyn asks."Yes... into a car," Chiyo says, deadpan. "Also... I can do this." She holds her hands up, and you see them start to glow, then... shift into a point. Like a blade. "I'm able to make my hands into blades," she says. Her blade hands slowly dim and turn back to normal."[ ] That would've come in handy against Ramius... no pun intended...[ ] How long have you known about this?[ ] Stay silent.

[x] That would've come in handy against Ramius... no pun intended...
[X] How long have you known about this?
"That would have come in handy against Ramius," you say to Chiyo. You realize the pun but leave it alone; it's not exactly the time to joke around."I didn't exactly know what to do," she says defensively. "I thought you would've had it taken care of, Anon-kun, since you seemed so sure of yourself. That and you tend to end most fights anyway. If I had known this could've happened, I would've attacked him with you."You narrow your eyes at Chiyo's tone. "Regardless... Miyuki?"She looks away from you. "I don't know exactly. I haven't changed into a car, but I have this uncanny ability to read someone's emotions, even if they're hiding it. I also can do stuff like this," she says. She stands up and walks over to you, touches you on the forehead, and says, "Sleep." Everything around you instantly becomes black, and you fall away into the cold embrace of slumber....Drip.Drip.You can't see anything. Everything is dark, and it feels like you're floating in nothingness, and you realize... you're dreaming. "The hell?" you mutter.
You focus on the image of Sayuri, and slowly, you see a scene unfold before you. It's a dark room, and you can see her standing in a pool of water, chained to the ceiling. Drip. You can hear water dripping down the chains and into the pool around her legs."Why...?" You see her staring down into the water, quietly talking to herself. "Why did this happen...?" You can see she's been crying lately, and more tears slowly start to fall from her eyes. "I... just wanted everyone to be safe..."You try to say something to her, but you can't seem to bring words out. You see a familiar face wade through the water up to her. "You say something, girl?" Ramius grins as he grabs her by the hair and makes her look at him. "Eh?""N-no... Please.. Let me go..." Her voice is weak. It's then you notice she looks like she's been beat recently, and it really pisses you off."Ha, as if I'd do that." He smacks her across the face with little effort, but it leaves a mark. "You like it when I beat you, don't you?""No...""Yes you do," he growls, and he smacks her across the face again. "Say it.""..No...""You don't learn, do you?" Ramius asks rhetorically. He puts his pale hand on her stomach, and she recoils from his touch. "You'll learn that you belong to us. It's a matter of time, that's all."You watch him as he moves in slow-motion, and you feel your bloodlust rising as he moves his hand down Sayuri's body.You force yourself to shout, to say something. "I WILL KILL YOU!" Your voice echos through the walls, and Sayur's eyes widen."...Anon-kun.."
She heard you. That's good. Ramius, however, apparently hasn't. He stops, though, and looks her in the eyes. "Who?" he hisses."..Anon-kun..." Her eyes look like they're devoid of life, like a doll's. "Anon..kun.." She latches on to your name like a mantra to stay sane. "Anon-kun...""Who the fuck is 'Anon?'" he asks forcefully. He puts his hand on her chin and makes her look him in the eyes. "Is it that punk I kicked the shit out of?""Anon... will kill you.." she whispers."The fuck you say?!" His voice is rising in anger now. "That little shit can't do anything to me!""Sayuri, I will find you, and this guy will pay for ever touching you," you say to the dark room. "I just need to know... where you are...""...The docks.." she whispers again. "Anon-kun will come," she says, fire coming to her eyes, and she looks up into Ramius'. "And he will do what I can't. He will stop you.""We'll see about that," Ramius cackles. "Until that happens, I've got you all to myself.."Your vision starts to fade, and you just hear a scream. "ANON-KUN!!"
Your eyes snap wide open, and you remember you're surrounded by Miyuki, Roslyn, and Chiyo. They're all looking frantically at you, unsure if they should do something. That's when you realize your eyes are wet, and you're trembling. Whether it's with rage or with grief, you aren't entirely sure at this point."The docks," you whisper. "They... are at the docks...""Are you alright, Anon-kun?" Roslyn's frantic words snap you out of your strange trance, and you growl."I'm going to kill him." You stand up and glance around the room, looking for what, you aren't sure. "I need to kill him."Chiyo nods."Ramius," you say with vile disdain. "If that... If that was real..."Before you can say anything, Miyuki walks up to you and stares you in the eyes. "...It's that bad, isn't it?" You don't even have to say anything. The look in your eyes says it all. Miyuki turns to Roslyn. "We may need all the help we can get..."Roslyn nods. "I'm calling Tadashi." She calls him and informs him of the situation. When she hangs up, she says, "He'll meet us here.""...Good." Your voice is ice cold when you say it, and Roslyn visibly flinches.
"How long will he be?" Chiyo asks."I don't know," Roslyn says sadly. "He'll be here as fast as he possibly can, though." Chiyo nods.Miyuki steps up to you. "You woke up and said 'the docks.' What did you see while you were sleeping?" she asks."Before I explain, this has been bothering me. For awhile now, I've been having dreams about cars lately. It's always surreal, and I remember bits and pieces from them. It's strange, but the cars always seem to react to me, as if they're sentient. For instance," you say, gesturing to Roslyn, "I've seen your car form before. My point is... this time... This time I saw Sayuri.""And what about her?" Miyuki asks.You feel your hand ball into a fist. "She was being interrogated by Ramius," you say through clenched teeth. "I kept yelling for her to tell me where she was... And she said something about the docks.""So she's at the docks?" Miyuki asks."I believe so," you say, nodding your head. You try and keep yourself steady as you recall the images flashing through your head.[ ] "I need some air."[ ] Sit down and wait for Tadashi.

>>20098380[X] Sit down and wait for Tadashi.Plan. Acquire knife and/or gun if possible. Roslyn knows more about Gears than the other two, see if she can explain to them how to reliably turn into a car. If we can get it we want two Mobile Gears for this.

[x] "I need some air."
>>20098380[ ] "I need some air."We need to take a deep breath and think before this goes down. Although anger is a useful tool, we need to harness and focus it; Ramius is a trained killer; raw berserker-mode will not stop him, but a decent plan might at least let us get Sayuri out of there.
I need some air.
"I need some air," you say. You stand up and walk out of the house and breath in some of the fresh air. "I can't believe this is happening," you say to yourself. You find yourself walking around, unsure of what exactly to think. Inside, you're panicking. You've never experienced anything like this before. "Dammit..."As you're walking, you hear something up ahead of you. It sounds... like a scream? "The hell?" You walk towards it and hear it again, directing you towards a nearby alley. When you turn the corner, you see three guys standing there, all of them surrounding a girl."Heh heh! This is gonna be great!" one of them says. "This slut looks just right, you know?""Hah! Yeah!" another says. One of them produces... a syringe? "Gonna hit this chick full of this stuff, and she'll be all over us!""N-no...! Someone... help!" the girl shouts.The guy injects whatever is in that syringe into the girl, and he cackles. "You'll open up just fine now," he says. "You'll be begging for it soon enough, don't you worry."[ ] Call out for them to stop[ ] Attack them any way possible[ ] Walk away, leaving her to her fate

You don't say a word. You can barely control your rage after seeing what you saw. You look to your right and see a pile of scrap metal among some of the trash. Metal pipe. You pick it up without hesitation and rush all three of them, unaware of the danger to your own life. You don't care. You can't let this go on.You swing the pipe, connecting with the lead guy's head immediately. You can feel something actually give after the hit connected. You turn and kick the next guy in the side, turning your entire body and then bringing your fist up in an uppercut. You twist your body and bring the pipe in your other hand up and hit the guy in the crotch, dropping him to the ground. You turn back to the last two standing guys: the leader and his other bitch."I hope you've made peace with your lives," you growl. "Because you're leaving this place in a fucking body bag.""The fuck? Who do you think you are, punk?" The leader produces a switchblade and laughs. "That hit you got on me really fucking hurt, but that's the last one you're gonna get. And then after I leave you bleeding, I'm going to make you watch as we fuck this bitch senseless."
"Help.. me..." The words from the girl are quiet and husky.You feel the muscles in your face twitch. "You die first," you say as you lock eyes with the leader. You rush him, pushing your feet against the ground with all your might, and you bring the pipe up and use it to stab him in the stomach. It misses, however, as he steps to the left and brings an elbow down on your back. The attack connects, and you drop to your knees, only to be grabbed by the scruff of your shirt and lifted up to the guy's face."You feeling lucky?" he asks. "'Cause you're in for a world of hurt, motherfucker." He goes to stab you with his knife, but you actually manage to grab his wrist at the last second, diverting the attack. You don't say anything, you just bring your knee up and connect with his chin, forcing him to drop you. You land smoothly and pick the pipe back up. As you rise, you bring the pipe up and connect with his crotch, forcing him to the ground, gasping in pain.You take a step back and hit him in the face with the pipe, dropping him to the ground. You can't control yourself. You bring the pipe up and down on him again and again. You can roughly see blood pooling on the ground around his head, but you don't stop. You also briefly notice him twitching. It matters not. Out of the corner of your eye, however, you notice movement. You sidestep to your left as the other guy lunges at you, and you use the pipe to trip him.
He falls straight to the ground, but you lose your grip on the pipe in the process. You don't care. You rush to that guy and flip him over on to his back. You drive your knee into his sternum and begin to punch the ever-living shit out of his face. Each punch is met with a wet THWACK. You grab him by the hair and punch, punch punch. You start to grin as you bloody his face. The idea of them hurting a girl like this, or worse... the thought of Sayuri comes flooding back into your head.You stand up and pick the guy up by the shirt, dragging him to his feet. You put your knee into his kidney, then slam him into the brick wall behind you, head first, dropping him. You pick up another bit of metal and hit him again and again until he stops moving. Blood starts to pool around the guy's body.You turn around, blood smearing your face, a feral look in your eyes. The first guy you dropped was standing, holding the girl around the neck, one of his hands down her pants. "Hey fucker, back off, or I'll break this hottie's neck." You take a shakey step forward, a grin growing on your face. "H-hey, wait a second..." He takes a step back, bringing her with him. "Stop!""Let... her... go.""The fuck you just say to me?""I SAID LET HER GO!""Like hell!" He pulls the girl against him and grinds against her. "She likes it where she is.""Ahhh!..Ah...Mmm..."You drop the pipe in your hand. You don't need it.
You twitch. "Let her go," you say again, your voice much calmer. You are actually surprised how calm you are, but you realize you've gone full circle. You're so thoroughly lost in this rage that you are, for all intents and purposes, serene. You take another step, causing the guy to take another step back. "This is the last chance you'll ever get."The guy pulls a knife of his own and brings it to the girl's neck. "Fuck your shit! I ain't taking orders from you, you little fucker! Get lost!""That's a shame," you say, almost mechanically. "I would've let you live, too." Something inside you snaps again, and you find yourself mentally detached from the situation. It's almost as if you're having an out-of-body experience. You see/feel yourself as you rush forward, your body low to the ground, your legs moving faster than they ever have before. You slide up to him in almost an instant, your hand reaching for his face, and gripping it with enough force to probbaly break the pipe. You aren't entirely sure. You wrench the poor girl free without hurting her and get her to stand behind you. "You're dead."You push him down to the ground with only your arm strength, and he falls to his knees. With your other arm, you grab the arm with the knife and bring it up and down -- on to your raised knee, shattering the bone, and ultimately forcing him to drop the knife.
He screams out in pain, and when he does, you bring your knee around and up into his jaw, closing his teeth over his tongue, severing it. Blood spews from his mouth, soaking your shirt. You force him to his feet and kick in his left knee, shattering the joint with one hit. He sags to his left, and you then give his right knee equal treatment. "You should have listened," you say in a dark voice. He drops to the ground again, and you stand over him. "I'll see you in hell." You pull your arm back and bring your fist down and you force your body with the punch, delivering it straight into the guy's face. You angle it at such a way that you actually hit him under his nose, shoving the cartlidge up into his brain, killing him instantly. "A quick death you did not deserve."You glance around, seeing the carnage you wrought. You slowly come down from the bloodlust high, and you start to tremble. You see the girl standing there, a foggy look in her eyes. "Mister... Please..." You try to calm yourself down, and you can't. You feel like you're about to lose it, albeit a completely different way. You want to cry. Three men, dead or dying, at your hands. You aren't entirely sure what to do. This poor girl can't think straight, that much you can tell, and you focus on that. You need to get her away. That sole thought propels you forward."Alright, come on," you say, grabbing her by the shoulders. "Let's.. Let's go... You need to get out of here..."
"What... What's wrong..?" She doesn't even realize what just transpired. You're glad she doesn't, actually. "Mister..." She presses her body into yours. "Come on.. Let me help you..""No." Your voice is steel, completely unrelenting. "Home. To my home." You don't care about the obvious blood all over yourself, but somewhere in the back of your mind, you know that you're going to attract the attention of others. "No, we need to just get out of here."As you're walking back, you bump into Tadashi of all people. "What the HELL happened to you!?" he asks surprised. "Holy shit."[ ] I did some things.[ ] I did what I had to do.[ ] Oh nothing, just getting covered in blood.
>>20098896[ ] I did what I had to do.Tadashi will understand to leave it at that.

"I... I did what I had to do," you say coldly."I can tell," he says, getting a grip on everything. "Miss?" he says, looking the girl in the face. She jumps when Tadashi addresses her. "Sorry... Are you okay?""I think they drugged her," you point out. She starts to shiver a little bit, and you hear a small gasp escape her lips."Mm I think I'm okay," she says. "I feel so hot, though..." She starts to take her clothes off right there in the middle of the street, and Tadashi snaps into action."No no no, just wait. Come on, we need to have you rest." He nods for you to help get her moving, and the two of you move back to your house. When you get there, Tadashi looks at you. "GIve me a minute... I need to explain this." He goes inside for a few minutes, then comes out. "Okay, come on."You and the girl both enter the house, and Miyuki immediately goes to the girl."Sleep," she says immediately, touching the girl on the forehead. The girl falls into Miyuki's arms, and Miyuki carries the girl over to the couch and puts her down."Explain yourself," Miyuki says sternly to you.[ ] Walking... see girl in trouble... stopped them.[ ] Really? Do I have to explain this?[ ] Stay silent.

>>20099217[ ] Walking... see girl in trouble... stopped them.Fits with our mindset atm, and how we were thinking at the time
"Was walking... saw girl in trouble... stopped trouble," you manage to say, somewhat fragmented. "Snapped," you add.Miyuki sighs and walks up to you. "Anon-kun... You need to snap out of it," she says. "As glad as I am that you saved someone, you need to focus. We need to find Sayuri."At hearing her name, you feel that fire from earlier return. "You're right," you say quietly. "We need to try and find her.""I'm thinking the docks might be the best place to go," Chiyo says as she approaches you. "There are enough buildings that he could find one that's unoccupied.""Then I guess it's to the docks," you say. You look over and see Roslyn looking at you, a strange look in her eyes.[ ] Approach her[ ] Get changed[ ] "Let's go."
[X] Approach her
>>20099419[X] Approach herRoslyn, can you teach Miyuki or Chiyo how to turn into a car? From what I can tell they can't pull it off consistently like you can.
[x] Approach her
>>20099419[ ] Approach herIf the person best acquainted with these guys seems antsy, probably a good idea to get her info
You approach Roslyn. "What is it?" you ask."...You do the strangest things, Anon-kun," she says quietly."What do you mean?"She stands up and looks at you. "You save me from Magnus when he could have killed you... You take on Ramius when he could have killed you... You jump into a fight to save a complete stranger when you could have been hurt or worse..." She looks away from you and stares at the ground. "What happens when you do something like that and you don't walk away?"It's true, you realize. You've been jumping into danger after danger whenever the situation presents itself. You know you don't do this for the sake of being a hero or anything... You're doing this sort of thing because no one else does. Since you were younger, you were always standing up to bullies, getting into fights, trying to make it so that everyone was happy. You were always trying to protect your friends. Even people you didn't know. The idea of not somehow walking away never crossed your mind."To be honest, Roslyn," you say, getting her attention, "I don't know. I don't think about that sort of thing. I focus on doing something; I don't focus on what might happen to me. If I do, I might fail, and I can't afford to fail. I failed with Sayuri, and right now, I'm trying my best to hold it together for her sake." You take a breath. "If I don't put myself on the line, who will?"
"What about us, though?" she asks. "What about me? I don't want you to..." She looks away and blushes."Roslyn, just believe that things will work out," you say simply. She doesn't look at you, so you move down to her level and look her in the eyes. Her eyes are slightly teary. "It sucks not knowing everything, so sometimes you just have to have faith that things will work out. I saved you once against all odds, and together we're all going to save Sayuri. Then tonight, we are going to have a dinner together, and I'm going to make sure it's the best dinner ever.""Do you promise?" she asks quietly."I do." When you say that, she looks up to you, and her expression softens. She leans up and gives you a small kiss on the lips, then pulls back."...Thank you, Anon-kun."
