Those gosh-darn guardians are up to no good again!

All around Genessia, the Guardians are up to their usual corruption. Thievery, explosives, arson, oh my! Who can we depend on when our very protectors endanger us so? If only someone had listened. But now it's too late. You sheeple have doomed us all.

Pidonus pretending to be Satsuki! (For Sun Wukong)

[personal profile] have_hat_will_travel 2014-11-22 03:25 am (UTC)(link)


A certain black-haired Guardian happened to be taking a nice, regal walk in Nova City. Her commanding stature commanded no questioning of her obviously determined path, as she moved with certainty towards her objective.

The walk was perfect enough that no one would dare question that it was the Guardian herself. The precise combination of research, planning, and a bit of magic of Pidonus' own to supplement a certain associate's tricks would see nicely to that long enough for her to commit her heinous deed and disappear.

... She wondered if it wouldn't have been easier to just dominate Satsuki herself into doing it - not that the mental dalliance showed on her face for even a second. And, to be honest, Pidonus did feel a little worse than she should have about how she was about to go and beat up someone for the sole reason of making a completely different someone look bad. Damn it, she was a demon, she wasn't supposed to have a conscience!

... Fortunately, she knew how to trick her strikes to make them hurt more than hurt - and be nice and flashy for the convenient cameras, too. Soothe her conscience and work on the important part of the goal, too!

Now, to just find that monkey-like fellow...

Sun just so happens to be in Nova City searching through the stores to see if they sold any really good surveillance equipment. He had a paid in hand which he was making notes on out potentially useful devices that he had seen in said stores. He planned on looking over everything before making his final decisions, though.

The monkey tailed Faunus stood there making marks on the piece of paper before tapping his pen against it. "Yeah..I'm thinking that third store had the better equipment and prices.."

One convenient little detail about the cameras Pidonus had arranged for this: They were silent. She didn't have to try and capture Satsuki's imperious mode of speech - so much as just walk up behind Sun and immediately attack.

"Unworthy," she shouted as she drew her copy of Satsuki's sword and immediately slashed at Sun. She'd heard that he had some tricks, so she needed to get a painful enough hit in to stop him from moving immediately. Then, several more good strikes, one simple direction to leave Nova City while he could still walk, then leaving. That'd do the job nicely.

Of course, if he managed to fight back, that could be leveraged too - to make the black-haired guardian seem weak instead. Which could cause her just as much trouble as a backup plan.

Pidonus so loved win-win situations.

Let it be known that you should never go at Sun and not expect to get a fight. He quickly rolled forward as she struck at his back. When he got up to his feet, he quickly spun around to face her, his guard up. A huntsmen should always keep their senses sharp. And as a Faunus, his senses were sharper than that of a human.

“What the heck, Satsuki?!” He was pretty sure he was on good terms with her. Or at least good enough h terms that she wouldn’t walk up behind him and do something like this.

“If you want to spar or something, you should probably say that and not just suddenly attack someone.” Really, that wasn’t becoming of someone that was a city guardian.

[personal profile] have_hat_will_travel 2014-11-25 09:06 pm (UTC)(link)

Good news, bad news. Good news: He was resisting, and he was good enough to avoid her. So seeming weak it would be. Not so good: That meant that she needed an escape.

The duplicate simply took more swings, stepping in quickly to keep him from getting on his guard, and not saying a single word. Keep him confused, don't clarify the situation. 'Satsuki' had no words for this 'scum'. Just brutal, efficient violence to scare the unworthy out of the society of Neon City.

The media could take over from there.

[personal profile] monkeystowaway 2014-11-26 03:37 am (UTC)(link)
No talking just straight to the point? It was a little odd in his opinion. The one thing he and everyone else probably knew about Satsuki was she loved to talk. Whether it was because she had a lot to say or because she likes hearing her own voice, he didn't know. But he was most certain that if you asked her to summarize something, you would end up hearing an hour long summary of whatever it is.

Sun jumped back quickly as she pressed the attack. He reached underneath the back of his shirt and pulled out his weapon. He unfurled it and it took the form of his staff. He takes it in both hands and holds it in a defensive position, ready to counter attack should she come in now.

"Alright. If you really want to do this, lady."

[personal profile] have_hat_will_travel 2014-11-26 04:20 am (UTC)(link)

Hrm. Quarterstaff. A rather effective weapon, for sure... And, of course, the mimicry of Satsuki didn't go so far as to include her special abilities.

That forced Pidonus to go straight to the point. "Leave Nova, unworthy scum," she stated firmly, keeping the sword pointed in Sun's direction, but not yet attacking. Pidonus knew how quick a staff could move - she needed to let him create his own opening if she was going to win this.

"I could have sworn we were on better terms than this, Satsuki." He keeps his guard up but he is moving closer to her.

"You want to tell me what this is really about or will fighting be the only thing that settles it?" He asks while studying her, noting her stance and any opening that she may have. His weapon wasn't just a simple Quarterstaff. It packed a much bigger punch than that.

[personal profile] have_hat_will_travel 2014-11-26 06:25 am (UTC)(link)

"This city does not need your ilk. Therefore, I will remove you from it. It is as simple as that."

'Satsuki' couldn't afford to step back in response to Sun's approach... However, her stance seemed a bit unsteady. Surely a strike that way would force her down so he could figure out what was going on, and wasn't a subtle feint to set him up for a strike!

Of course, if he did manage to strike her, she'd simply have to flee immediately and seem terribly weak in addition to horrifyingly racist. That'd definitely be useful later.

Yeah, that was pretty strange. He was sure Satsuki didn't have anything against his kind. So Sun focused and then quickly rushed forward. The thing about having a staff as a weapon mean you could maintain some distance when striking against shorter weapons.

His movement stopped when he felt she was in his range but also when he felt that he wasn't in her range for an attack. He struck out at her with a great deal of force with his staff.

[personal profile] have_hat_will_travel 2014-11-30 12:22 am (UTC)(link)

The show was on, now. Sun had a significant range advantage that Pidonus knew she wouldn't be able to match without completely dropping the illusion. On the other hand, that wasn't the only cheat she had. After all, this was close enough to a performance that she could bring her 'bardic music' abilities to bear...

As demonstrated when lightning began to course along "Satsuki"'s blade as she moved to block the strike and step in to try and swing at Sun. As far as the journalistic record would go, it was just another dirty trick from Nova's guardian, after all!

More importantly, it was the only way she was going to stand a chance against his speed and reach, especially if she didn't want to seriously hurt him, while he was not so withheld necessarily - he, for sure, knew something was up, but depending on his guess as to what was wrong...

[personal profile] monkeystowaway 2014-12-01 06:54 am (UTC)(link)
Sun’s hit recoiled some as she blocked it with her lightning infused blade. That was..shocking. Good thing his Aura does a good job of protecting him so that any lightning that might have traveled along his own weapon wouldn’t be too debilitating.

As she stepped in to swing at him, Sun quickly moved to drop down low to get under her swing, dropping down to the ground and spinning his staff all the while. As he comes to the ground, he slams his staff down upon it, and when he does it lets off a big shock wave of energy that could send even a grown man tumbling off of their feet and onto the ground.

[personal profile] have_hat_will_travel 2014-12-01 06:51 pm (UTC)(link)


The swing of the electrified blade indeed flew high as Sun ducked, forcing the doppelganger to take several quick hops to avoid the staff, followed by a bigger jump back as Sun struck the ground, knocked back but managing to roll back to her feet.

"You're a menace to this city. Leave," she directed, quickly stepping in and taking a series of rapid swings to punctuate her 'point'. This... Wasn't going well for Pidonus, and she'd have to make her exit soon.

She should've figured this would go something like this, now she thought about it...

Sun was up to his feet as fast as she could manage. “Yeah, I’ll get right on that, Lady.” As she came in again Sun dodged and parried the blows to the best of his abilities. He waited for the right moment in the flurry that she was sending his way before he made his next move.

He suddenly broken his staff down into a pair of two nunchaku, using the moment of his parry to get them both in motion. Though, they were hardly simple nunchaku, they were actually four shotguns, each pair linked by a chain. He started his counter attack, swinging them and simultaneously firing off shotgun blasts when the barrels were level to her or level to her sword just to throw off any sword strikes that she was sending his way.

[personal profile] have_hat_will_travel 2014-12-02 06:53 am (UTC)(link)


Well this was definitely not what Pidonus had signed up for with this scheme... Several rapid-fire blasts forced her back, and back, and back again, putting her on the defensive for several steps... Until she simply took off running around a corner.

She needed enough distance to not arouse suspicion if she disappeared with a teleportation spell, or released the illusion on her form to reveal her true self. The question was if she'd be able to get that...

monkeystowaway: (Default)

[personal profile] monkeystowaway 2014-12-02 07:05 am (UTC)(link)
Sun paused for a brief second as she took off around that corner because..was she really running away? She attacked him! She couldn't just run away without some kind of word. So he took off after her, snapping his weapon back together into its staff form.

Usually Sun was the one being chased, not the one doing the chasing. "Hey! Get back here!"

[personal profile] have_hat_will_travel 2014-12-03 06:58 am (UTC)(link)
The video would look good - or at least good enough. Now, she had to keep herself from getting revealed.... And that meant getting away.

Quickly, Pidonus turned a corner. She didn't know Nova City well, so teleporting beyond what she was not a thing she could pull, but she could quickly dart to the other end of the alleyway, giving her a bit of breathing room... Hopefully.

If this damned hero wasn't fast enough for that, at least, she could easily get away clean with a few more uses of that...
monkeystowaway: (Untitled-4copy_zpsefdf77ad)

[personal profile] monkeystowaway 2014-12-09 04:40 am (UTC)(link)
Maybe if she hadn't suddenly attacked him she wouldn't have to worry about this damned hero and how fast he was. He cut down the alleyway, running at full speed doing his best to try to catch up to her.

"How in the world can you run so fast in heels?!"

[personal profile] have_hat_will_travel 2014-12-09 06:59 am (UTC)(link)
'Satsuki' didn't answer - turning another corner, then another, using another teleport to get to the far end of that alley and turn yet again.

Losing him was important at this point - she had to set Satsuki up as a coward, not actually get beaten up and found out. Question was, could she pull it...

[personal profile] monkeystowaway 2014-12-10 05:36 am (UTC)(link)
When he turned the corner into the alley, he doesn't see her in it. He pauses for a second and then quickly runs to the end of the alley and looks from left to right to see if he could see which way she had went.

[personal profile] have_hat_will_travel 2014-12-10 07:10 am (UTC)(link)

Pidonus, by this point, had decided to try a completely different tactic. Namely, hiding in a trash bin before he could catch up sufficiently. Of course, if he thought to look in the trash bin...

She released her illusion at this point, and winced a little, like she was in a fair bit of pain. If she could convince Sun that the duplicate had thrown her in the trash can while barreling past...

[personal profile] monkeystowaway 2014-12-11 03:43 am (UTC)(link)
Sun cautiously stepped out of the alleyway when he did see her anymore, but he didn't drop his guard. He knew that she could still be around. So he walked cautiously, listening for any slight sound.

[personal profile] have_hat_will_travel 2014-12-11 04:27 am (UTC)(link)
The sound would come from the dumpster, as Pidonus tried to move and failed, the trash beneath her shifting and dropping her in further. "Ow... Who the hell was that..."

The act begins... Hopefully. Worst case, she had to hope one of her spells would work.

Spirit was sitting in the park to get some fresh air--he's happy for the change of scenery since he's spent the bulk of November indoors, attempting to recover while also cleaning up the mess that was his apartment after his confrontation with Stein.

His eyes fall on Ejava, uncertain. She was cross the last time they'd spoken, sure, but honestly. Getting to his feet, Spirit approaches her, his good hand stuffed into his pocket and the other still in a sling. "Scaring children? That isn't like you."
notsoholyspirit: (Worried Glance)

Not convincing

[personal profile] notsoholyspirit 2014-11-24 07:09 am (UTC)(link)
"Healer's office? I was discharged earlier this week."

And even if he hadn't been, he would have left. Spirit has no shame in admitting that he's not fond of hospitals.

After a moment, his eyes narrow. He had been unconvinced earlier by her behavior and wad still wary of all the nonsense that has gone on courtesy of Everyman.

"To what do I owe the honor of my first name? I haven't been 'Spirit' since I stared working with you. Even though I've asked, even in casual conversation I've been Deputy Albarn."
notsoholyspirit: (Womp)

Suuuuuure

[personal profile] notsoholyspirit 2014-11-25 03:11 am (UTC)(link)
Ok. Spirit might be injured, but he's not going to let whoever this is--because he remains unconvinced that it's Guardian Tepet--put kids in harms way. So he is up off of the bench and approaching her with a frown.

"All right, enough."

The weapon looks calm enough but there's anger brewing. He's a parent after all. Don't screw with kids. "You're not crushing anything. This isn't what a guardian is supposed to be doing. Not that I'm completely convinced you actually are Guardian Tepet."
notsoholyspirit: (=|)

ffff

[personal profile] notsoholyspirit 2014-11-25 04:16 am (UTC)(link)
Heaven help him if he's wrong.

Spirit loosens his tie and tugs on a small chain. Until this moment he's seen no reason to do much with the amulet that he received upon arrival beyond keep it on his person as instructed. But he did remember that only those from other worlds had them. Between his fingers he's holding a small green pendant.

"If you're really Guardian Tepet...prove it."

He isn't looking for a fight--in fact his current goal is to just distract her from destroying the park. There's not even a glimmer of a chance that he could take her on anyway, certainly not like this.
notsoholyspirit: (=O)

Ew gross also honestly I tagged this and had noooo idea what I was going to do

[personal profile] notsoholyspirit 2014-11-26 03:25 am (UTC)(link)
Spirit doesn't recoil from her through either the spitting or the explosion. He shifts his weight on the destroyed ground to adjust his footing, but remains in place.

"Out of curiosity, what does our Guardian intend to do next?"

Though he's still not convinced that this is truly Guardian Tepet, she does have the what looks to be the right amulet. And truly, if this is the actual Guardian Tepet, how could he stand to work for someone who behaves like this? The trepidation shows in his expression, though he's attempting to keep it well hidden.
