⇨ INVASION!

Who: Everyone! But especially HARBINGERS!
When: S2:D16-22
Where: All over Wismuth!
What: As the Harbingers reveal themselves, those among the carnival that Creation has chosen will start to discover new powers within themselves. It's because they're magical girls, yo.
Warnings: Harbingers being assholes.

HARBINGERS OF VOID

On Day 16, the Harbingers begin revealing their new selves... in the form of wreaking havoc on the city! CY-Ren isn't looking for mass panic or serious structural damage - instead she wants constant annoyances and distractions, of the sort that will keep those that might be on her tail distracted from her true plans. However, when Creation is faced with the threat of twelve new Harbingers, it will have to fight in kind...

HARBINGERS: Your job is to use your powers to create messes for other people to clean up! CY-Ren gives no specific instructions outside of a general framework... flex your powers! See what you can do. Don't destroy the city or anything, but give Creation a run for its money. She needs these civilians alive for her later plans.

STAR GUARDIANS: Twelve members of the carnival have been chosen by Creation to fight in its name, even if they don't realize it yet. When confronted by the Harbinger's chaos, their Sparks will make themselves known in whatever form is appropriate to the character - and they will be asked if they are willing to use the power of their soul to fight the darkness. How this scene plays out can be flexible, but essentially they will find themselves faced with the question: are they willing to fight for the preservation of life? If they say yes, their Spark will emerge, and they will be able to trigger a magical girl transformation, as you do.

CHARITY CONCERT: While everyone else is busy with the sudden rise of the Harbingers, CY-Ren's PR team is releasing a statement -- they will say that new information has revealed that there had been bomb threats made against the canceled concert, which are now being blamed for the damages. CY-Ren will make a personal statement, saying that in order to apologize for the failure of her previous performances, a new free to attend event is being planned for the near future - people who had tickets to the previous event and had to go home early get top priority!

[That scream! That was Yuya!

Yuzu quickly made her way to where Yuya was most likely and came to a horrified stop as she saw the two of the - Yuya injured and Yugo... What happened to him?! She’s quick to rush to Yuya’s side]


Yuya, what happened?! Are you okay?!
bananaspeedrider: (Hehhhhh)

[personal profile] bananaspeedrider 2018-02-14 08:43 pm (UTC)(link)
[Though Yugo scoffs at when Yuzu shows up, his dragon familiar is outright snarling with fury. They're hovering low enough that Yugo is able to rest his hand on their snout to keep them from charging at her right then and there. For now.]

Well look who's here! I think you oughta be careful though Yuzu, because I don't think Clear Wing here likes you.

[... Wasn't Clear Wing the cute and tiny summon that would follow Yugo around or sit on his shoulder? The giant corrupted monster next to him surely looks almost nothing like it.]

[Yuya hears Yuzu, but he doesn't respond at first... instead, when he feels her get close enough he swings his arm wide to swat her away. Obviously he's not fine, but he can handle himself!

He struggles up to his knees, sitting back on his feet as his claws dig into his shirt and skin and he glares daggers at Yugo.]
D... don't get so cocky, you haven't won yet!
fusionactuallysuitsher: (Huh?)

[personal profile] fusionactuallysuitsher 2018-02-14 08:57 pm (UTC)(link)
[Yuzu jumps back at the swatting. What the...? What's going on?]

Yuya, what's gotten into you?! This is not like you! Either of you! ALL OF YOU!
bananaspeedrider: (Oi...!!!)

[personal profile] bananaspeedrider 2018-02-14 09:07 pm (UTC)(link)
[She obviously doesn't know anything either. But neither could Yugo care less about Yuzu. His touch still holds back the growling dragon in their crouched stance, still making them wait.]

That's because the Void's shown me the way, the truth! We're bringing the end to everything in all the worlds!

I don't want to hear that from you! [Yuya spits venemously at Yugo, slowly removing his hand from the crystal. He doesn't realize, consciously, the influence Yugo's attack is having over him. It just seems natural so sudden feel so bitter and hateful to him, who's threatened a friend of his and the destruction of everything, like an idiot.

He manages to get to his feet, pulling the bubble wand back as he points at his counterpart.]
I won't let you!

[He wishes he knew better what the hell this thing was supposed to do. But his hand curls into a fist, and he at least knows what something else he has does.

So he rushes forward, straight for Yugo, to try and punch him with the punch ring.]
fusionactuallysuitsher: (Shocked)

[personal profile] fusionactuallysuitsher 2018-02-14 09:39 pm (UTC)(link)
YUYA, NO!

[Sorry, Yuya, Yuzu's going to have to grab you to stop you from doing something stupid. The Void... crap, CY-Ren did something to him, didn't she? And now this...]

Yuya, this isn't like you! This isn't you! Stop this now!

[personal profile] hippocarnival 2018-02-14 09:51 pm (UTC)(link)
[Yuya jerks forward as he's grabbed, before he stumbles a step back. He grumbles irritably as he turns to Yuzu, frowning. Why is she getting in his way?] It's...

[He purses his lips in a tight line.] Yuzu, you heard what he said. I have this power to stop him, so let me!

[It's irritating him that she's holding him back. She could get hurt--will get hurt by Yugo if he doesn't interfere. He has to protect her, doesn't he?

That's right, she's precious and he wants to protect her. His shoulders slump a little, even if his expression doesn't soften.]
fusionactuallysuitsher: (Get your act together Yuya!)

[personal profile] fusionactuallysuitsher 2018-02-14 09:56 pm (UTC)(link)
I heard you, but I'm not going to let you recklessly charge in there after him!

[She recognizes this sort of action. He's doing it for her and she's not happy at that.]

Yuya, if you have this so-called power to protect me, then you're acting selfishly!
bananaspeedrider: (eyyy)

[personal profile] bananaspeedrider 2018-02-14 09:58 pm (UTC)(link)
Besides it'll be two against one, Yuya... and this isn't a duel. Though we both know you're too damn scared to have one of those against me.

[What a low blow. You gonna take that, soft tomato? With his eyes mostly hidden by his helmet's visor, the smirk he has is more like their fusion double's than his own.]
hippocarnival: (✮ 114 ✮)

[personal profile] hippocarnival 2018-02-14 10:02 pm (UTC)(link)
[Yuya winces as he's lectured. Well, yeah, the power was to 'preserve life' and not 'save Yuzu', but Yuzu's a life and she's right here in front of him!

She just also knows him way too well. His chest is still throbbing, and absently he reaches to cover the wound under his shirt again]
Yuzu, I...

[He twitches irritably when Yugo baits him, looking over his shoulder again.]
fusionactuallysuitsher: (Get your act together Yuya!)

[personal profile] fusionactuallysuitsher 2018-02-14 10:06 pm (UTC)(link)
You stay out of this! [Sorry, Yugo, not dealing with this BS right now. Back to Yuya.]

You know better than this, Yuya. You always do! You're better than this. Besides, I'm not going to stand around and let people like him get away with this! I'm helping, too, like it or not!
bananaspeedrider: (Hehhhhh)

[personal profile] bananaspeedrider 2018-02-14 10:13 pm (UTC)(link)
Stay out of your talk over there? I can do that.

[And his hand slides off from the dragon's head, which is more than enough permission for the synchro spirit to suddenly roar before charging forward at Yuya and Yuzu.]

But Clear Wing's got something else to say about it...!
hippocarnival: (✮ 075 ✮)

[personal profile] hippocarnival 2018-02-14 10:20 pm (UTC)(link)
[Yuya turns back to Yuzu and small smile cracks his expression, although he can't hold back the obvious worry. She's right... this kind of hatred isn't like him, not anymore. He doesn't need to be driven by it--he has the love of his friends, his family to encourage him forward again.

He opens his mouth to speak... and then he hears that roar and his blood runs cold. There's only a moment that he looks back at Clear Wing rushing him again.

He sucks in a sharp breath and the shield domes around them, his shoulders stiff and bracing for the impact. He can slow Clear Wing down, probably... but he's not sure he can stop the dragon completely.

So he tries to grab for Yuzu, pulling her down so he can cover her body with his.]
fusionactuallysuitsher: (Shocked)

[personal profile] fusionactuallysuitsher 2018-02-14 10:28 pm (UTC)(link)
[No! Nononono.

Things were going wrong too fast! And there’s no way Yuya can handle such a thing! Sorry - she’s the one in Armor right now, so when he grabs for Yuzu, she’s going to try and spin around so that it’s she’s protecting him.

Sorry, Yuya, sometimes she needs to be the hero.]
bananaspeedrider: (Clear Wing)

[personal profile] bananaspeedrider 2018-02-14 10:33 pm (UTC)(link)
[Yugo doesn't care what they do in there, but the dragon snarls. They're going to hit that pathetic shield with everything they have to get at that piece of Ray! So undeterred by its appearance, Clear Wing crashes into Yuya's barrier with every bit of momentum they have.

How much does that shake him?]
hippocarnival: (✮ 109 ✮)

[personal profile] hippocarnival 2018-02-14 10:40 pm (UTC)(link)
[What does she think magical girl clothes he hasn't even explained is!

He doesn't anticipate Yuzu using his hold to twist them around, and the momentum makes him dizzy for a moment as he bends off-balance. But then he realizes what's happened and his eyes widen as his grip tightens.]
No, Yuzu!

[Unfortunately, Clear Wing is a huge, massive, powerful dragon and slamming into the barrier all at once is really more than Yuya can hold up against when his focus is split between the pain in his chest and his panic over Yuzu.

It holds for a couple seconds before giving under the pressure, too fast for Yuya to act.]
Yuzu!
fusionactuallysuitsher: (Huh?)

[personal profile] fusionactuallysuitsher 2018-02-14 10:52 pm (UTC)(link)
[If she realized it, she would have acted differently, but as it stands, she's in trouble, the shields shattering and Clear Wing ready to tear her to ribbons...

...or at least would be had, in the usual kinds of things that happen to magical girls, a shiny new power kicks in, protecting Yuzu and Yuya as a pulse is unleashed to knock away Yugo and Clear Wing.]


Wha... what in the...?

[And Yuzu sits up to find herself holding a light, a figure that seems familiar and unfamiliar to her]

...Who... who are you?
bananaspeedrider: (indignant)

[personal profile] bananaspeedrider 2018-02-14 11:07 pm (UTC)(link)
[The dragon gets unceremoniously tossed into the wall of a building and Yugo gets floored himself by the power of that transformation pulse.]

Hhhgrrr... another Star Guardian now? You guys are just full of surprises, huh?

[Clear Wing is still pissed overall, what else is new.]
hippocarnival: (✮ 139 ✮)

[personal profile] hippocarnival 2018-02-14 11:11 pm (UTC)(link)
[Yuya flinches at the pulse reflexively, even though it doesn't touch him. His hold around Yuzu loosens as he opens his eyes, blinking rapidly when he's faced not with Yuzu being horribly injured, but Clear Wing out of view and a bright light in front of their faces.]

Yuzu...? [He says it breathlessly, stunned at the sudden turn of events. Is she also...?

Well, Ray was the one who defended the world the first time. Of course Yuzu would share that same conviction.]
fusionactuallysuitsher: (Huh?)

[personal profile] fusionactuallysuitsher 2018-02-14 11:24 pm (UTC)(link)
Yuzu Hiiragi. Your power, your strength is needed to protect this world. Will you accept this power?

I... yes. Yes, I will!

[And there’s another bright light as Yuzu begins her transformation, her armor and clothes disappearing as they are replaced with bands of light wrapping around her body and changing into a brand new outfit, easily resembling something like from one of her cards, her hair growing longer and taking a yellow color along with the usual red.

As everything ends and the light disappears, Yuzu now stands clad in her own Star Guardian outfit.]


Wow... I... I transformed...!
bananaspeedrider: (straight face)

[personal profile] bananaspeedrider 2018-02-14 11:37 pm (UTC)(link)
[Well if one counts the familiar, then the odds are now evened out. Yugo stands back up and he gestures for the dragon back to his side.]

And we're enemies, the both of you are...! You don't scare me!
hippocarnival: (✮ 023 ✮)

[personal profile] hippocarnival 2018-02-14 11:43 pm (UTC)(link)
[Yuya just kind of stares dumbly at Yuzu, basically getting smacked in the face with a transformation. Somehow, he knows when he sees her that she's like him now. A Guardian, someone who's going to be strong enough to protect this world and save their friends.

He shakes back to awareness, pushing himself to his feet and adjusting the grip on his bubble wand.]


Yeah, you... [He looks back at Yugo, now clearly defensive. There's less anger in his heart when he looks at him now--but he's still trying to hurt them, so they can't ease their guard.] Yuzu, he's really not himself right now. CY-Ren did something.
fusionactuallysuitsher: (Determined)

[personal profile] fusionactuallysuitsher 2018-02-15 03:46 pm (UTC)(link)
CY-Ren... figured something was wrong about her...

[And she looks up at Yugo]

And you! If you don't stand down, I'm going to smack the evil out of you!

[And she's going to brandish her fan.]
bananaspeedrider: (OKAY THAT'S IT!)

[personal profile] bananaspeedrider 2018-02-15 05:56 pm (UTC)(link)
[Oh the fan. He remembers the fan. Yugo actually flinches a bit when Yuzu does that, but then steels himself again by making a furious snarl not unlike the sound Clear Wing can make because of course he's that ridiculously stubborn.]

You can't make me do anything!

[Both he and Clear Wing suck in a breath and let loose their plasma blasts with a doubled-]

*PWING-FWOOOOOSH*
