009: Hungry Ghosts [Private Action/Videos]

[Action, locked to Ishtar]

[Since the loud cracking sounds run through Everglade, Zelos' first response was to peer out the window to see what was going on.

It was then he saw the spirits descending.

His skin paled immediately. Whatever that was, he wanted absolutely nothing to do with it. Maybe if he skipped town, he'd be able to get out of this mess. First of all, though, he wanted to make sure Ishtar was safe.

So with that, he'll be running down the hall to knock on her door.]

Yo, Ishtar-hunny, we might wanna run.

[Video, locked to Fai]

[Regardless of how the talk with Ishtar goes, Zelos opens up a video call to Fai as he's running for the Archway.

If Fai was in a safe place, he could nag him for shelter until this mess got sorted. Otherwise, he'd try and protect the both of them. Like hell he was letting those two get hurt.]

Yo. Everglade's gone to Hell.

How're you holding up? Genessia safe?

[Video, locked to Tori, Colette, Flonne, Haruka, Mikasa, Muse, Pidonus, David, Weiss.]

[The most important people already warned, he figured he should at least check on the handful of people who were vaguely on his radar - at least, the ones who's deaths would leave a bad taste in his mouth.

Once he'd got well out the way to safety, he fired off a quick video.]

Guys, might want to avoid Everglade and Genessia city. Things've gone to Hell here.

[Well, he warned them. That made it no longer his problem.]

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

Wouldn't be doing my job if I avoided either place. If you or anyone else you know needs help, let me know.

Figured you'd say that.

Just thought I should give you the heads-up, anyway.

Thanks, though. I'm hoping I'll be able to get myself and a couple of others out without too much trouble, but if we run into trouble I'll call you.

Alright. Just stay safe and avoid doing anything stupid if you can. [In situations like this, that was easier said than done, though.]

Will do. Trust me, I'm not exactly the 'run in headfirst like an idiot' type.

You got a plan?

Genessia is the same as Everglade. I'm thinking of maybe heading to Nova City. Seems like that place isn't going to hell.

[He was wondering what the other was going to do.]

I hope you are staying safe.

Damn, Genessia too? You alright?

Nova City sounds like a great idea right now. Anywhere that avoids this whole mess.

[If Fai escaped to Nova City, that would at least put his mind at ease a bit.]

... I'm okay. Focusing on getting out.

[It'd be obvious from the way the feed was bouncing around that Zelos was running as he spoke.]

Thankfully, I know how to take care of myself at least.

[Even if that means avoiding the situation and just grabbing Sakura and headed to Nova City right off the bat. He had to make sure she was okay since she wasn't a fighter at all. He couldn't help but notice he was running and he figured he was still in Everglade.]

Do you need help? Don't want anything to happen to my favourite person after all.

Edited 2015-06-30 08:22 (UTC)

Good to know. You in Nova already?

[Zelos glanced behind him. At least he'd lost the worst of them. It would be quicker if he just used his angelic powers to help him get out of there of course, but he'd been far to careful about keeping that hidden until now, so he wasn't in any hurry to reveal it. Not yet.

'Favourite person', though? That was enough to make Zelos blush. He didn't entirely believe him, of course, especially now that Sakura had just arrived. Surely someone from his homeworld was more important, right?]

You're such a tease, Fai-hunny~ Are you really that worried about me?

[He chuckled, perhaps letting himself get a little hopeful. Maybe, just maybe, Fai really did worry about him.]

Lemme see how it goes. Near the Archway here, then just gotta get through Genessia. That's the worst bit. How bad's it there?

I know... There's more people at stake, too.

I'm going to try and help. I... I have to. I think.

To be honest, doubt there's much I can do to help, so I'm just getting out of this mess.

You gonna stick around?

[That was only half true. He probably could do more, but he wasn't about to try.]

For now. Be careful as you flee.

Edited 2015-07-02 03:41 (UTC)

Will do. Good luck out there.

Damnit... looks like I need to evacuate Jeb and Solaris, then. [She doesn't want Jeb to get involved with this, and Solaris losing consciousness at a time like this would be catastrophic.] So, what are you planning to do?

Solaris?

Well, Nova City's clear, so I'm pretty much gonna stick around here until this mess is sorted out.

Yeah, our... roommate. She's from our world, or at least a version of it.

[It's complicated, okay. All she knows is that she's never met Solaris, or heard of more than four ancient elementals, but Solaris knows her, Jeb, and the intimate details of their world. It could be a well-hidden secret and a timeline thing, or it could be an alternate universe. She doesn't want to think too much about it...!]

That's probably for the best, you know~? Maybe we'll do the same, once we get the hell out of here.

A...version of it? That sounds pretty weird.

Yeah, agreed. I wasn't planning on sticking around once I saw this mess. Evacuating me and Ishtar seemed like the pretty obvious choice, you know?

[She smiles a little. It's nice that Zelos is considerate enough to warn her. Still...]

Thank you for warning me, Zelos. But... I think I want to stay behind and help as much as I can.

[Awkward awkward awkward. Why did he think warning her was a good idea? It apparently never struck him that he'd have to actually talk to her after he left the message.

For probably the first time since coming here, she'd see Zelos' face over the camera - although he found directly looking at her a little difficult. A better view than his ceiling, anyway.]

You know, I should've expected that from you.

Edited 2015-07-02 00:04 (UTC)

[She actually smiles when she's greeted with his face instead of a ceiling, so hey!]

Heehee... I guess so! But I can't just make sure I'm okay when others are in trouble. I'll be careful, I promise!

Thanks for the update.

[ Weiss is clearly not happy about it and her crabbiness is coming out on full because of it. She seems to realize it after a moment and adds: ]

If you're looking for a safe place to stay, Schnee Company's Nova City branch is presently being used as a crisis camp for people fleeing the city.

My pleasure, my cute ice queen~

[Her grumpiness is clearly an excuse for him to ham up the flirting some more, right.]

Thanks. Think I've got somewhere to run, but I'll let you know.

Hey!

[ Congratulations, Zelos. You've used the magic nickname that makes her slightly pouty. WHich is quickly covered up with a healthy dose of grump. ]

If you don't need it then don't come. I'd rather use resources on someone who has better things to do than use uninformed nicknames.

[ Actually it's pretty informed. IT's definitely not the first time she's heard it. Or the 5th. Or more. It's a general-use nickname that sticks to her very well. ]

...Run?

[ The door was pulled open as she heard him call to her. ]

[ There's a quizzical look on Ishtar's face as he said that. Why were they ru-- oh. She saw what he was looking at and somewhat paled. ]

You're kidding right? I go MIA for a bit and this is what happens? Why can't there be any peace?!

Clearly they wanted to welcome you home in style?

[Zelos laughed, a little shakily. At least Ishtar was safe, for now.

Either way, they couldn't afford to stick around for too long.]

Come on, I'm thinking we need to get to another Archway as soon as we can.

Not the style I was looking for but seriously!

[ Don't laugh Zelos. It's not funny at all. She's been really on edge with most of this. Ah, hell, she's not really going to further complain about it. He was right, they needed to get the hell out of here right now! ]

Good idea. Let's make a break for it

[ She grabbed Sidia and whatever she could find including her little pets and she was going to follow Zelos. ]

Lead the way!
