The Sound Of Approaching Feet--

Nov 03, 2011 22:00

And then, suddenly--

The elevator was open, lights in the Station Master's house warm and inviting. Suddenly there he was, grinning once more, offering rides once again. He says nothing of the situation, nothing except, with a grin-- "The rain is gone."

That means it's safe to go up.

The ride up is silent, swift, but once up--

[He reacts instantly, remembering what Saya taught him about guns and bullets, twisting out of the way and swinging a knife to deflect the bullet. His expression tightens then, but he offers a cheeky salute--]

I'm out of here, then!

[And he tries to bolt.]

Leaving so soon?

[He fires two more shots-at where Matthew is, and where he predicts Matthew will move.

Of course, he isn't the top gunman of his world for nothing, though. Don't ask how he does it, but both bullets will be reaching Matthew at the same time.]

[Matthew is good--

But he's not that good. He dodges one and twists away from the other--

But he's just not that fast. He's human, and nothing more. The bullet goes straight through his side, and Matthew flinches, stumbling and not managing to regain his balance. He crashes into the ground instead, breathing unsteady.]

H-hey.

If you wanted me to stay...

[He winces and his hand goes to his side in a pitiful effort to stop the bleeding.]

You could have just asked.

Somehow, I wasn't expecting a 'yes'.

[He takes a step forward-though he doesn't get too close, just in case Matthew might have something up his sleeve.]

Don't worry, I won't kill you. Huh, let's see...

[Knocking him out should be easy enough, but just to make sure that Matthew can't retaliate...

Aiming for his shoulder again-]

Shooting Matthew, huh? Wow. Somebody must be bored.

[Don't mind Crowley, he'll just be standing behind Train as if he's been there the whole time.]

A cat playing with a mouse, pretty much. Oh, yes, I know, you're just going to threaten him some more with your little gun and make some more snide remarks and you'll think you're all high and mighty, won't you?

[He leans in, smiling like the snake he is.]

How hilarious.

[ Surprisingly, Maya is right here with him. She heard the gunshots and her Persona led her here. A card is turned over in her hand, which turns out to be her changing Personas.

If that's the case, a shot resistant Persona would be the best option here, thus, she equips Suzaku. Any attempt at shooting her will be left with your bullets reflecting Train.

And while Crowley is busy distracting Train, she goes over to Matthew, standing in front of him. She turns to Train. ]

Somebody must be pretty bored, you're right. No need to go and be a dick about it, though, you COULD have just played a boardgame, but you had to go and shoot poor Matty when he didn't even do anything wrong. That's not okay. Persona!

[ Here, Train. Enjoy the Hieros Glupaine spell her Persona is casting at you. Should it hit, you'll be dealing with high level physical damage with a fifty percent chance of a pure knock out on the first hit. ]

[And suddenly, people.

Matthew blinks, a little startled, and his grin is a little strained, but it makes a reappearance nonetheless.]

Ah...ha! Who...would've thought...

[And then he tries to sit up, falling silent with a wince.]

Saving Matthew, huh? Wow. Somebody must be bored.

[If he's at all surprised at their appearances, he doesn't show it. Rather, he simply jumps back, flipping, and landing a good distance behind Crowley, before immediately jumping again to the side while firing the remaining three bullets in his round at him.

... So rather than Train, Crowley is the one who might want to dodge Maya's attack-]

[Oh. Maya. Huh. Didn't expect her here. Honestly, did she have to show up when he least expected it?]

Hello there, Maya.

[And in the blink of an eye (not Crowley's-Crowley almost never blinked), she's shooting some sort of attack at Train, and Train has suddenly jumped out of the way. And is shooting bullets at him. Don't forget the Persona attack too.]

[Well, bugger.]

[But luckily, Crowley is quick as well. With a loud whump, two large black and finely groomed wings expand out of his back, and he takes to the sky above them, all in the matter of a few seconds.]

[He grins.] Close one, huh? Now, now, who told you to play with guns? Shame on you.

[And he snaps his fingers, and now Train's gun is a water gun. HAVE FUN WITH THAT.]

[ Oh. Oh she's sorry, Crowley. Thank god you avoided it, that would have sucked. ]

Yikes! Sorry about that, Crowley. Nice save.

[ ahsdlfkhg Train. B( She'll be moving to Matthew, though, now. Quietly switching Personas quickly to Gaia to put a Tetrakarn spell over him. That should take care of any bullets Train considers firing at him from here on.

Hopefully a Diarahan will be enough for now to help him stand and stem the bloodloss. And she doesn't know if he has any bullets in his body or not... ]

Hey, Matty... I'm going to cover you, okay? We can deal with this Shadow fine, but I need to get you away from him... he might have back-up weapons.

[ So, can you stand? ]

[He's left watching the fighting, a littl too dazed to do anything but watch.

...ah. There is Maya. He grins up at her then, pain ebbing away with her spell.]

Sure...sure. Let's get out of here.

[The only thought, coherent or not, in his head, is to get back to Saya. So he slowly pushes himself up to his feet.]

What the-!?

[He stares at... what used to be Hades, before smirking mirthlessly at the others.]

Geez... three against one, and now I'm weaponless. This really isn't very fun at all anymore...

[And for all that Train's called an idiot, he knows better than to pointlessly fight a losing battle.]

CROWLEY IS THE BIGGEST JERK EVER BD scaresplants November 13 2011, 00:46:27 UTC
[Crowley lands neatly in front of Train, wings folding as he frowns at him.]

Of course not. Once we get out of here, I'll turn your weapon back. Then decide if you'll be foolish enough to chase after us.

[He takes out a cigarette from his pocket and lights it nonchalantly with a finger.] Cause if you do, expect a nice little ball of fire where your head is. [He puffs a few times and then blows the smoke in Train's face, the jerk.] And I'm sure you wouldn't want that, would you?

[He turns towards Maya and Matthew and waves at them, smirking.] C'mon, let's get that guy out of here. I'll be over- Oh. Wait. Forgot one thing.

[And he turns and PUNCHES TRAIN IN THE FACE. Hey, he wants to keep his jerk reputation exactly where it is. BD]

That's for trying to shoot at me, you moron.

[And with that, he'll walk over to where Matthew and Maya are, grinning triumphantly.]

DON'T BUY IT, NOPE dualpinkpistols November 13 2011, 01:26:49 UTC
[ That earns a small eyeroll. Uh-huh Crowley she knows better.

Anyway, she will be helping Matthew up now, and hey! He's on his feet. She looks at his side, and frowns lightly. ]

I've got bad news, Matty. I'm going to have to get that bullet out before I can fully heal you...

[ Switching back to her other Persona, she tucks the cards safely away, unconcerned. Train can't hurt he like he is now, so she'll be fine. May as will bring out Artemis. ]

PSHHAAAW. crowley is a big squishy redcloakedthief November 13 2011, 01:28:35 UTC
[He merely laughs at the display, quietly. And then he shakes his head.]

Alright, alright. Let's just get out of here.

Saya's going to worry otherwise...

too bad train won't remember this squishiness. >: sweepered November 13 2011, 01:36:18 UTC
[Fortunately for Train, the punch wasn't entirely unexpected, and so he manages to jump back at the last second. It still hits, but the damage is minimized so that he doesn't even have so much as a broken nose.

And now that that's done with, he smirks again.]

I happen to like Hades as a functioning gun, so... I'm outta here. Have fun with that guy.

[And with that, he jumps away again, until after a few moments, he's gone from sight.]
