Nemesis and Hurricane's Ideal World: Session 1

[idolpro]

[The sky above is a deep, unnatural crimson, filled with roiling clouds and creatures that are a sickly oil-slick black. They writhe and wriggle like something out of a Lovecraftian nightmare; they have entirely too many eyes, and entirely too many wings, and when they open their mouths, they have entirely too many teeth]

[Below them, the city of Tokyo is half-shattered; above the rooftops, mechanized suits the size of people hover in the air, darting in out of the chaos, laser blasts and explosions and wickedly sharp blades fighting tirelessly against the endless onslaught]

[Until finally, the last creature falls]

[All at once, civilians flood the streets of the city; the lights come on in all the buildings, which somehow have become whole again, safe and unharmed. A cheer goes up from the crowd. Overhead, a stunning fireworks display paints the night with light and color]

[And they all lived happily ever after]

[The end]

Wah—

Ehehe, all right, all right!

Re: THE RESCUE

[idolpro]

[The kids cheer over their victory!

The dogs are equally joyous.]

Yay, you're so good at playing! Let's do more! More!

[Eventually they let her up, though one of the smaller kids stay hugged around her leg]

[ to the small leg-hugger, who she is also going to pat on the head: ]

Ehe... how about you? Do you still want to play?

Re: THE RESCUE

[idolpro]

[The little boy hugs closer, shaking his head against her]

Wanna stay with you... You'll stay here with us forever, right, big sis?

Re: THE RESCUE

[proceedwithcautus]

Ah...

...you're not worried, are you? Hurricane and Nemesis are always going to be here, right?

Re: THE RESCUE

[idolpro]

But last time strangers came--

[The redhead from before comes back, harshly shushing the smaller boy--tugging him away from Eirene and into her own arms]

--That's enough. You gotta go to the party, right?

Re: THE RESCUE

[proceedwithcautus]

A little longer isn't too bad, I think...

...anyway, Hurricane and Nemesis care a lot about all of you, I know, so I'd like to help allay any fears. It's no trouble.

I'm sure... that if strangers are going to be here today, that they'll all be friends. I'm sure you'd like to meet Mr. Rye or Izanagi, if they come this way!

Re: THE RESCUE

[idolpro]

[The baby boy seems hopeful about this; the older girl less so. She hitches the kid up on her hip]

Maybe... Anyways, it's getting late. Time to put the little kids down.

[The boy whines, even as he lets out a wide yawn. The girl softens]

...Thanks for playing with us, though. It was really fun.

Re: THE RESCUE

[proceedwithcautus]

Hopefully... someday, I'll be able to come here properly. Until then.

[ she gives the little boy a pat on the head, and then heads back up the path toward the house. ]

Re: THE RESCUE

[idolpro]

[He waves, as the girl hefts him up again, starting towards the heavy darkness of the rescue building.]

[The house stays lit, even as the sky begins to darken as well]
