Log;

Yuffie grinned cheerfully. She didn't mind this curse day. The city had made her restless, somewhat tame. And the urge for violence had been rising lately.

Luckily, she had found Tayuya, who was also wanting to create some havoc. How fun. Walter, V, and Saeph, and Motoko had also offered to join in with them. Even better.

Aiming carefully, she cocked her arm back and then let loose the Conformer. It slashed several people, leaving deep gashes, before returning to her.

Catching it neatly, she checked her materia. Not a bad selection, really. Ice 3, Bolt 3, her Leviathan summon, and a few other high leveled materia, plus Cure for good measure.

Deciding against summoning, she cast Ice 2 , creating a large patch of ice near the carousel. Watching people slip on that should be fun indeed.

Tayuya stood beside the other girl, a wide smirk splitting across her lips. If she'd known this place would have been so fun she wouldb have offed herself earlier than this. Her flute, well, the flute was broken. Two neatly sliced pieces of well-used metal. Ah, what she wouldn't give to get that damn thing fixed. Genjutsu really was more her specialty.

"Nice." She murmured, rifling through the explosive tags she'd hastily prepared. She had kunai as well, but the most violent thing in her repoirtoire was her curse seal, which was pulsing with excitment.

Tayuya calmly strolled over to bench, slapped the explosive tag on it, and watched the black inked seal begin pulsing red in preparation for a small explosion.

"Not bad" Said a voice behind Yuffie.

Walter stood there. He was coated in blood from head to foot, and his long, black hair was loose from it's usual tie. His eyes were lit red with the unholy fire of the damned undead. Large parts of his left arm, right leg and the odd section of his body were leaking a disturbing swirling black substance where he hadn't regenerated properly from his fight with Marluxia.

"Not bad at all. I've brought a friend, by the way, hope you don't mind. Although I seem to have lost Alucard in the underworld." He looked to V who stood a short distance behind him, cape full of interesting lumps. "Shall we have a shot, old man?"

Then he drew the weights of his wires out in a long line, and took aim, and let fly...

"Not bad."
Yuffie looked behind her to see Walter, and grinned. "Why thank you. And no, I don't mind." She spotted V, and waved. "Hey Mister V."

She watched Walter's wires fly and Tayuya's seal spread everywhere, and smiled widely. This was definitely gonna be a memorable day.

Tayuya idly turned her head as the explosion took off, at the same time sidestepping a flying metal screw. She looked behind her, taking in the looks of this Walter character. She watched with interest at the swirling void-like masses of his limbs, mildly tempted to ask to touch them. But they looked a tad dangerous. Eh, well, fuck that.

"Nice to see you." She smiled, throwing a kunai across the street into the shoulder of a young man across the street was seemed to be drinking. She also took in the sight of V, who seemed... a character. The mask... a bit garish for her tastes, but the idea of what it did to those who ran into him in the middle of the night was exciting. And hell, he had explosives.

Motoko looked around and saw a couple getting far too friendly with each other. Why can't they keep it behind closed doors... She calmly unsheathed her sword and held it above her head. "God's Cry School: Rock Splitting Blade!" A shockwave was sent towards the couple, exploding at their feet and sending them flying. Just like Urashima and Naru-sempai...how disgusting.

Yuffie ducked a few bits of flying rubble, and then looked over at Tayuya. "Nicely done." she said approvingly.

Stepping back and looking upwards at someone who had poked their head out to investigate, she winked. "Enjoying the show?" She closed an eye in concentration, then used a low level bolt spell. It would shock him enough that he'd mind his own business, but wouldn't be able to move properly.

The man promptly ducked back inside, cursing.

"Keep that shit off the street." Tayuya shouted encouragingly to the girl with the sword. She looked like a bit of a nice-girl, this curse or whatever an exception. But right now she was being a bad girl. Tayuya approved.

"Why thank you." Tayuya picked out a small explosive tag and gently offered it. Jarring set these off. "Care to try one?"

V shifted the black canvas duffel bag slung over his shoulder in order to tip his hat at Yuffie.

"Hello, Miss.", then addressing Walter " By all means."

It seemed all were having a bit of a warm up, and rather flashy ones at that.
Well, not one to be shown up, He rummaged in one of the pockets in the flak jacket hidden by his cloak, and came up with the first of a set of remotes.

En route to this little gathering he had been placing charges of varying intensity and location here and there, and this particular beauty set off a smaller cache within the warehouse district.

After watching several other similar displays of destruction quite mildy, he flipped the cap and pressed the switch.

A delay of roughly 30 seconds later a rather artful fireball rose a few blocks over to be crowned with 3 mortar fireworks and his trade-mark red "V" painted in arcing mortar shells.

"Yes, rather." Walter agreed with Tayuya, smiling wryly. "Can't have that sort of thing. Won't do at all." He licked the length of one of his wires, savouring the taste of fresh blood. It would help him heal, help him grow stronger. His mouth was full of fangs, and his eyes full of hunger.

"Any particular plans for the direction of this sojourn of scourgery?" He asked.

A brave citizen took it upon himself to try and stop the destruction. As he charged forewards, Motoko turned and slashed again. "God's Cry School: Air Splitting Blade!" This time, a large gust of wind seemed to pick up and slice at the attacker. He was thrown back as well, though he seemed to be fairly unharmed. "Weaklings," she muttered under her breath.

"Wherever havoc calls your damn name, I say, Walter." Tayuya used her chakra to the soles of her feet, rapidly scaling a building nearby at the first sound of V's huge explosion.

"Yes, yes, yes..." She hissed happily, watching the fireworks and explosion. She returned to her ruined bench in one swift jump, throwing shuriken on her way down.

Shielding her eyes from the explosions, Yuffie nodded. "Sure." She gingerly took it from the redhead, and walking carefully, set it on a nearby building.

Yuffie gave V a thumbs up. "That was awesome, sir!"

Walter smiled at the fireworks. "You immense show-off." He said to V, grinning. He spun manically to face the others, hair flying.

"Shall I tell you what I hear calling my name, ladies and gentlemen? Nightclubs. Catcalling like vile whores, begging to be used, drained. Sweating, pulsating bodies, running with life. "Walter.. walter.... devour me..." That's what I hear."

Faust's normal outfit was replaced this evening by a green coat. He merely watched the destruction, breathing heavily.

"I've been here before, I think."

Tayuya watched the explosive tag Yuffie set begin pulsing. 10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1-bang bang. A small piece of rubble sliced a thin line across her cheek. She moved a hand, feeling the blood across her calloused fingers.

"Hmmm..." She whispered, licking the blood from her fingers. Bitter, tang, salt. It just wouldn't do to let her precious flute pieces be stained.

"Walter, that's sick. You're brilliant." Tayuya shuddered as she tried to control her curse seal.

Bowing with a flourish, he removed his hat.

" I have never laid claim to humility" V replied to Walter with a maniacal edge in his voice. " And bathing in the blood of the corrupt has it's appeal, my friend. The more corrupted and arrogant the better."

V idly removed a blade from it's sheath and began to play it through his fingers in contemplation.

"Perhaps the Underworld?"

"I try." Walter shrugged, his arm dislocating in weird fashions. "Splendid idea, V. Tell you what, I'll race you all to the Underworld. Last one there gets to pick up the corpses."

Like some sort of horrifying Cheshire Cat, all lines and definition on his body began to fade and dissolve, leaving only cold red eyes and a rapidly widening grin. The black mass held together for a few seconds before shattering into a cloud of shrieking, chittering bats and clattering into the sky...

Faust was intrigued by the banter between V and Walter, and approached them.

"Do words like corrupt have any meaning here? This is a lost place, where death has no meaning and power is an illusion. Your ideas are interesting, but I believe... misplaced." Faust said to V, ignoring for a moment the explosions and screaming.

"The Underworld, hmm?" Tayuya smirked. "Sounds fucked. I'm game..." Tayuya paused, lifting her head. "Wait." Her curse seal pulsed.

Thump. Thump. Thump. Thump.

She sense a curse seal activating. Sensed the heaven seal... or was it the earth seal... it was one of the two most powerful. Which meant it was either the Uchiha brat or Kimimaro. Oooh, the very thought made shivers run down her spine.

"I'll join you all in the Underworld soon. Don't kill everything before I get there."

She let the curse seal loose. The horns that sprouted from her head tore open the hard hat that held her long, wild hair. Her skin darkened to a brown, black englufing her eyes. She smirked and lept away, searching for the source of the seal's counterpart.

She'd join the fun in the Underworld after playing.

{ooc: as in, I have to commute home from work real quick, then give a little girl a horse-lesson. After that, I am so back on~}

Something inside of him just snapped. It wasn't a pretty sight to see the normally happy and sparkly man licking blood from his own lips, his usually colorful contacts replaced with something more sinister--white ones, with his pupils being the only colour. The group he was supposed to meet was up ahead. They better not leave him anything boring, or else someone else was going to get it.

"Hey," he started, allowing his legs to walk towards them. However, before he could even make it there, someone from the corner of his eye caught his attention. Some dumb bitch left her precious daughter cowering by a corner. Definitely not a good idea, eh~? With a snarl, Saeph approached the poor fuck and grabbed a handful of her hair, pulling her up to a stand. It didn't even bother him when the girl started crying.

"Oi-- here's your lullaby, little girl," and with that, the gun was pointed at her head, and bang, she was dead. Discarding the corpse, Saeph headed to where he was originally going. Once he made it, he only asked one thing: "So how many are dying today~?" He didn't think he was going to get answered soon, because everyone seemed to be going somewhere. The Underworld? Sounded like fun. But dammit, he had to wait for that other guy. Where was he anyway~?

[ooc; Cue Beautiful Mystery Man. 0:]

" Why you sly cheat!" V called happily after the fleeing bats, and was about to turn heel himself when Faust spoke.

"My bagheaded friend, this is no time for a philosophical discussion! However I will say this: The act of using or abusing those that are different is a common occurence. Even, or rather; especially here, and kindly do not attempt to lecture me about the illusion of power, for power and death are illusions in all worlds and all times. No matter is ever created or destroyed, it simply changes form."

A quick tip of the hat and V set off for the tube station after Walter.

He paused for a brief moment, taking in the body of a young girl and hoping that Saeph wasn't responsible, even if the evidence pointed to the contrary. The City was burning, screams filled the air, and Zelos Wilder had no idea how he'd convinced himself this was a good idea.

There was no time. Tearing his gaze away, Zelos strode purposefully down the blood-stained streets, slowing a little as the group up ahead. He'd told them he was on there side, they should leave him alone. He was only here for Saeph, he didn't have to hang around. Sword in hand and a smirk on his face, Zelos waved his free hand ina lazy greeting.

"Yo," He spotted Saeph immediately and headed towards him, looking around at the chaos with a shrug, "Looks like the show started without me."

[OOC: I'm sorry that took me so long, I had to eat and stuff. And now I have to go out for an hour, but then I'm here for the night. I'll be back, Charismatic Mystery Man~ ;~;]

Yuffie chased after V and Walter happily. "No fair, you guys got a head start!" she called laughingly.

Pausing for a minute, she spotted the body of the little girl in the corner. Hmmm. She didn't care much for children being killed or manipulated. She checked her materia, and nodded. Casting full-life, she watched the girl come back to life, bullet popping out of her head, and after looking around confusedly, she scampered off. Smart kid.

A couple making out in an alleyway caught her attention. They were half naked, and really going at it. Yuffie shook her head. People had no shame. She equipped her Steal materia (which had been leveled up to Mug) and grinned.

Launching herself at them, she cast haste on herself, and hit them hard, snagging both wallets and a subway ticket, plus leaving some nasty gashes on their stomachs and chests. The looks on their faces was hilarious.

Laughing, Yuffie took off after V and everyone else. She hadn't had so much fun in ages.

(ooc: Sorry so long. Had to go to work, and then stop at a friend's house. @___@ Back for good though.)

Tayuya's form appeared back over the rooftops, each jump sending her over buldings from her chakra use, empowered by her curse seal. The level two curse seal was so much more powerful, so much more vicious so much stronger. She made it a point to use her broken flute to break a head on her way to the Underground. Tutting, she wiped blood from the metal object, reminding herself to get the goddamned thing fixed, and soon.

"Hnn, soft spot for brats?" She asked Yuffie as she ran abreast, albeit it five stories higher. She herself didn't care less, young or old, who died at this point, but she knew others had there... morals.

{ooc: also back for the night~}

Glancing upwards, Yuffie spotted Tayuya running above her, jumping from building to building.

"Hnn, soft spot for brats?"

"You could say that. Long story behind it." She ran up a building and flipped neatly to the one Tayuya was on. Keeping pace with her, she asked, "Did you have fun going off to play?"

"Uchiha Sasuke is here." Tayuya practically purred. "Oh, this will be so much fucking fun!" She tightened her grip on the two broken pieces of her flute. She owed the Uchiha a lot of payback, though it wasn't he who killed her, it was the mission to retrieve his "dream container" ass. She'd have some fun.

"I think, is this the Underground?" Tayuya lept from the last in a row of buildings, coming to a stop in front of what looked to her as a very forboding place.

The cloud of bats that was Walter swept across the city and poured, shrieking into the underground, then shot along the tunnels, seeking out the noise and the smell of warm bodies in the dark that marked the underworld. He was a being of pure destruction, the night incarnate, he was black freedom itself. The bats coalesced into his form. Sated with blood, he was able to keep his shape better now, but the lust wasn't over by any means.

He slid among the moving bodies, like a shadow, the smell of drink and sweat rank in his nostrils.

They were all ripe for the plucking, and those behind him would have the leftovers if they didn't make it soon. Something smelling of warmth and womanhood moved close to him, and he stood stock still, waiting for the opportunity to catch her eyes in hypnotic chains, and bite.

[ooc: FYI, the gig was passable. Lotte needs to work on her drumming timing, and the bass kept coming unplugged. Otherwise good. How was the horse-riding lesson? :P]]

Tayuya caught sight of Walter forming, watching the swirling mass of bats coalesce. Quite an interesting jutsu really.

{ooc: the little girl and her mom didn't show. I was secretly hoping that would happen, as I was really tired. Took a nap instead.}

Landing beside the redhead, Yuffie nodded. "Never been here before though." She studied the entrance.

"Oh!" She dug around in her pocket and pulled out a green orb. 'Gravity. Good.'
Holding it out to Tayuya, she smiled. "Wanna learn how to use materia?"

Out of the corner of her eyes, she saw Walter head into a nightclub. 'Happy hunting.' she thought.

Yuffie was planning to hit a different spot though. Earlier, she had slid the poison materia into an empty slot on the Conformer. Only level one, but it would do.

Moving through the tunnels was now second nature to V, and though he caught glimpses of the swarm of bats, he was unable to catch up properly. His leg was still uncooperative when forced to a flat-out run after all, but soon enough he was back in the underworld.

The shadow of the candy-coated city above, this place fit his mood more today.

Humming happily to himself he removed a wine bottle that was decidedly not filled with wine, stuff a bit of rag into the neck, lit the end, and with a flourish of cloak chucked it into the first glass and neon window he passed.

Sharp eyes scanned the street, but even with enhanced senses he nearly missed Walter entering a night club.

In his own time he strolled down to the open club doors and rummaged for a detonator cap. Nothing fancy, just a bit of smoke and noise to get the crowds panicking.

Familiar scents. Enemies? Rivals? The parts of his brain not currently occupied on the kill pointed out that he recognised the scent of Miss Yuffie. He shrugged and reoccupied himself with what was pumping under the surface of skin all around him.

[[ooc: Nap? Ah, sleep. I remember sleep...sometimes I miss it. ]]

Tayuya eyed the green orb carefully. She had never seen anything like it, but it watching Yuffie use them was any indication, they were powerful. Tayuya liked that.

"Sure. How do I use these?" Tayuya took the orb and rolled it slowly in her palm, feeling the surface as if searching for it's hidden mysteries. The curse seal was still pulsing in time, right behind the beat of her dead heart.

{ooc: sleep, I like it. I stay on this place all night, lol, and then at work I'm like '-_-'. Polychromatic is good for the soul, detrimental to my body, lol}

Motoko shook her head, trying to fight the curse. "No, this isn't right, this isn't me. I will depart with you all here." She sheathed her blade and began to wander the town.

[ooc: sorry for lateish post, she didn't go to the underworld with y'all, just staying in town.]

"Simple enough. This is a gravity materia. It'll flatten anything in your way. When you use it, well, you get the idea."

How did Cloud explain it...ah, right. "Focus your energy into the orb. It'll respond, and you'll have power at your disposal. At first, it'll feel like someone's whispering in your head. Say the name of the spell, which is Demi, and you'll see what happens. Try it. Some people like to equip them to their weapons, but using them plain works just as well."

She stepped back, not wanting to get hit with Tayuya's first try.

"A mind thing... I see..." Tayuya laughed as Yuffie described it like a whisper in your head. That was exactly like her curse seal, this constant little pulse in the back of her brain. A pulse of power and whispers of secrets and deals with the devil.

"Demi..." She murmured, eyes narrowing in the direction of a middle aged man trying to flee the scene. Flattened... was a very good word to describe his new condition... yes.

"... Fuck..." Tayuya was in awe, rolling the orb about her palm in fascination.

"Is that witchery?" Yumiko asked Tayuya and Yuffie. The girl had told Yumiko to come if she wanted, and Yumiko did, so she had. Death's minion had been reserved since her arrival, sword gathering dust save a brief meeting with the kraken. It was currently dripping. She felt whole.

Yuffie looked over to Yumiko. "Hiya. And no, it's not witchery. Where I come from, it's magic, just one of many types. There's several kinds out there. I'll explain them later."

She spotted another nightclub. "Care to see what happens when you equip materia with a weapon?" Without waiting for a response, she took off.

Entering the club, she spotted people starting to clear a space for two dancers in the middle, who were practically grinding against each other.

Yuffie launced the Conformer with all her might. It went into a wide circle. The sharp edges were laced with Bio, courtesy of the poison materia. Yells of pain reached her ears.

Smirking, she caught it neatly and turned back to Tayuya and Yumiko. "See? Equally effective no matter how you use it."

"I think I like this shit... Materia..." Tayuya gave a laugh that could be described as a cackle. She watched how the materia worked in Yuffie's weapon, eyeing her own broken flute. Maybe when she had the goddamn thing fixed she would ask Yuffie about the whole thing. As it was, she didn't like the music in this nightclub.

Putting the end of the flute with the mouthpiece to her lips, Tayuya blasted out a harsh, quick, melody using the notes available in the first three fingerholes. The man controlling the music dropped to the ground clutching his head and screaming. Right about now her illusory centipedes should be eating out his eyes.

She took in the arrival of another woman bent on destruction and smiled sadistically.

Yuffie watched the man fall to the ground clutching his head when Tayuya played her flute.

"Nifty." She flashed the other girl a thumbs up.

Walter was probably having the time of his life, and so was V, most likely. She briefly wondered where Saeph and Zelos went.

The curse seal was straining now. She rarely used it for so long, but it had been so much, so much power, so much violence, so much fun that she'd been ignoring the signs of fatigue and exhaustion that would hit her the minute she let her grip on the curse seal's second level go.

"I'll be taking my leave. Gotta get some fucking rest." Tayuya nodded to everyone she saw, a wild smirk on her face.

"See you later, bastards."

And with that, she was gone.

{ooc: as in, goodnight, I have work tomorrow~ s'been fun.}

Yumiko was heartily impressed at both the demonstrations. "There was more than one kind in my world, too," she said to Yuffie. "My father had magic. Very few of the rest of us were taught. And hi," she directed the greeting at Tayuya as well, then added, "bye."

Without packing any special powers, she was out of her league, but didn't dwell on it. The shindig wasn't exclusive.

Yuffie waved bye to Tayuya absently, focusing on the girl next to her. "Yumiko, was it? I'm Yuffie."

She tossed a few shuriken at some of the people who hadn't got hit with the Conformer earlier.

"Care to go somewhere else? These people are boring."

"That's right. Pleased to meet you." She looked at the pathetic lot and grinned. "They are, and I'd love to."
