[Inner Residential District] [Midnight and a little after] [OPEN] Souji, Yosuke, and Kurt. socialinking March 29 2011, 05:42:31 UTC
[It was nice, hanging out with friends after he and Yosuke had dropped Nanako off back at the Dojima home. As much as things may have been awkward before, Souji was having a good time.

It was around midnight when things began to get a little odd. He couldn't figure out what it was, but when he checked his watch to see midnight on the dot, Souji felt like something just. Snap in him.

For a second he felt sick. And the next second, he didn't know anything.]

[ Things were going... well. They were going. Kurt was here at Yosuke's suggestion, after he'd broken it to him earlier that he was going to be trick-or-treating with John, Jade, and Dave and their friends. He was out of costume and sans ruby slippers, now, and they were having a decent time. Kurt was eating candy from his haul, mini Snickers and Kit-Kats and all kinds of stuff that he hadn't allowed himself to eat since he was a kid. He was going to get so fat, but who cared? Partaking in the sugar kept his mind away from the fact that Souji was a foot away from him, a nice polite distance.

The sugar also served to keep him awake this late. He was just about to make a sarcastic comment on the movie when he heard Souji shift a little in his seat beside him. Kurt crinkled up a candy wrapper and looked over... his expression seemed to change from one of pain or nausea or something to... something oddly blank. Kurt's eyebrows furrowed, and he extended an arm, concerned. ] Souji? Are you okay?

[Being on buffer duty that night turned out not to be as awkward as Yosuke imagined it to be, when he first asked Kurt to come out with them. What had started out sort of stilted eventually melted into a perfectly serviceable evening of pigging out on candy and watching cheesy horror movies. Yosuke had wanted them to try some pranks, maybe, which had been immediately shot down. All the better, honestly. Yosuke had never, uh, pranked before, anyway.

Besides, sitting on a couch made it easy to cram some forced distance between his friends. Not that they probably needed it at this point, but sitting between them felt like the right move, anyway. He was busy chewing on a particularly tough chunk of caramel candy when Kurt's arm reached across his chest. He followed it, face mimicking Kurt's (though perhaps with a bit more alarm than concern).]

Dude? [It came out thick and smacking of candy; damn caramel practically had his jaw wired shut. He chewed harder, in double time, working to swallow and be prepared to answer back when Souji ( ... )

[It was like wearing an odd pair of glasses. Like the funny looking glasses, the ones that Yukiko was always making people wear, and Souji grinned, wide and wicked like he never had before.

He shoved at them, shoving Kurt's arm away and pushing Yosuke into him, as hard as he could from where he was sitting. Getting up from the couch, he backed up until he hit the wall, eyes looking around the room before settling on the two of them again.

That was when the vector appeared.]

[To put it very simply, Souji had gone nuts. Nuts and with a vector, and after running from Kurt and Yosuke, he was running everywhere. It was like he couldn't get tired, slashing things left and right.

And people, if they got in his way.]

[A part of her hadn't really wanted to sleep. It was a pleasant night, cool and crisp and... to be entirely honest after that odd wave that had passed through the area and the strange, slightly violent thoughts that had bubbled up following it, Minako had felt the need to get outside and clear her head for a little bit. She wasn't... worried about what she'd felt. Perhaps a little unsettled though.

With a small sigh, she flopped onto a nearby bench. Force of habit had led her outside her work place - the Maid cafe - and really, it was as good a place as any to take a little break and have some quiet time.

Leaning back, she crossed her ankles and stretched out with a contented sigh - one hand reaching up to tug at the silly cat headband she was still wearing. She smiled. For her first major holiday in this city... it had been rather fun, even without the trick or treating.]

[Jumping slightly as the communicator sounded with a message, Minako sat up and flipped it open, eyes quickly scanning and taking it what Yosuke had just left on the SEES filter.

Snapping the communicator shut, Minako frowned. If something was wrong with Souji, and Yosuke had said that he was dangerous, she'd probably need some way to defend herself. At the same time though, she didn't want to do something to hurt him... but all that was sort of moot point really when she didn't have anything to attack or defend with in the first place ( ... )

[All he did was keep running. His mind was consumed with screams, with absolutely nothing, and it showed, the way he kept running, the way he had hurt people, and how he would continue to do so until stopped.

Next district, and the vector moved like a third arm, going anywhere he wanted it to go.]

[After his previous fights, Souji was more like an animal on the prowl, easily provoked, and ready for another fight.

And when he saw someone with yellow eyes, it set off another trigger in his head. Yellow eyes could only mean one thing. He ran towards the figure with yellow eyes, vector rising up and then slashing down.]

[Next district. Next district. Keep running from your friends and keep moving. Keep running from the people who were chasing after you, and keep moving.

And run into people you would normally never attack.]

[Lili hadn't returned home that night at all, instead choosing to hop from club to club until the chaos started. Which was the most interesting thing to have happened her entire time here, so excuse her for not going right home.]

[Souji skidded to a halt as he rounded the corner, vector hidden for now, seeing as he didn't need to use it right then. He wiped off some blood on his face with the back of his hand, heart pounding wild in his chest as he started moving to the first thing that moved in his view.]

[You don't get to be an excellent stalker without recognizing when you're being followed yourself. Lili turns around, but not with any hint of fear, just curiousity.]

Souji. What are you doing here?

[Shopping District] [2:30-3:00] [CLOSED] Souji and Yuna (Yosuke and Kurt) socialinking March 29 2011, 05:53:00 UTC
[He was unstoppable. He was unbeatable. He was injured, yes, but it didn't matter, adrenaline pumping through his veins, his mind a mess.

There were people he ran past, and there were people who he stopped for, if only briefly. There were so many people going crazy just like him, and it felt great.]

[Yuna was already tired. After the sirens had started blaring in the night, she and Vergil had split up in order to do their Watch duties, and the summoner had headed off into the Shopping District. Most of the last couple of hours had been spent trying to get any of the cities inhabitants out of harms way if possible; this attack couldn't have come at a worse time, as more people than usual were out late, due to the holiday.

Yuna had gotten her section of the area mostly cleared out by the middle of the second hour after the attack. The back of her mind buzzed, itching from the effects of the madness wavelength that had coursed through the city earlier, but the summoner had remained mostly unaffected.

She could hear footsteps of someone approaching, but she didn't realize how close they actually were until they were nearly upon her.]

Huh?

[He was a little bruised from the fights before, and wiping off some blood from his face, he took those extra last steps to grab at Yuna, to push her and trying to damage her.

He didn't know when he started laughing, and he didn't care, vector waving dangerously above him.]

[Yuna turned her head towards him just as his shadow seemed to bear down on her, the strange vector looking terrifying over his shoulder. Her eyes widened as the young man grabbed at her, and she stumbled as he pushed her away from him, barely managing to stay on her feet.

What she should have done was summon Yuuri before the fight had even begun, but instead she had hoped that he was with friends in a safe place. Yuna hadn't wanted to pull him into such an ugly fight, and she would gladly pay the price for that. She was foolish to think that she would have been able to avoid a fight.]

Stay back! [These guests with the vectors seemed to be possessed or something; she refused to believe that they had been betrayed by so many.]
