(GS3) Field: Amusement Park
Cherry:
"This is the single stupidest thing I've ever experienced."
Yunos didn't know how to have any fun, clearly.
Neither did Yugure, considering she was taking this way too seriously.
Never mind Ezel having a blast.
Yugure rode the dragon coaster, fighting against Tachikaze's Ancient Dragons. Destructive, prehistoric beasts of the Empire who thirsted for blood and battle more than any other. Even Kagero looked tame compared to their violent mindsets. Jewel Knights took the lead, facing off against them. It was from then on the knights started... having too much fun. Though, they were serious wars against the enemy, the speaker and commenting made this enjoyable. Not only that, but everyone felt like they were fit in theme for the setting! The classic warriors facing off against mighty dragons. Tracie seemed the most excited, and came out more than anyone to fight. The entire time... Ashlei's voice did not come. The card itself was silent, cold, as if it were completely gone.
"Ashlei, oh, Ashlei..." Salome woefully whispered.
Their opponent needed some water, honestly. He was coughing really bad. Was he even okay? Magallanica was still recovering from a water drought, so how would the Paladins be able to assist? Though, the speaker stated don't worry about him, their inner knight morals just...
Yunos facepalmed.
Salome, knowing full well a Perfect Guard was waiting for her, implored Yugure to ride. That's what Yugure had - reckless courage. Even knowing the odds, they would still go forth. Heh... Gancelot and the Chosen Sword were rubbing off on her.
Though Salome's first strike didn't make it, and all of the Jewel Knights were scattered, she didn't falter. Terror of defeat made her tremble, but she didn't stop.
"To my friend", she declared. Tyrannolegend's tale... ended.
Ezel almost cried. Alfred facepalmed. Yunos reminded everyone that it wasn't dead.
The ninja! A ninja burst out of the nearby Dragon! Okay, not really, but the paladins started believing it was cool to have imaginations of their own carry this adventure! The Chosen Sword against Dragon Ninjas!
"How do Ninja Dragons work-"
Shhh. Ahmes, you're ruining it.
Revengers took the next wave against Nubatama. Kuroko - the forerunner of Nubatama - showed an impressive ability to drop units that were bound. Almost as if endless pitfalls ensued. Never mind a gigantic full-wield bind Limit Break from Kabukicongo. The black knights were actually greatly scattered about, and Yunos couldn't even show up! Mordred did his best, but couldn't land anything either. Raging Form was enjoying himself like others, but for an entirely different reason. This guy was a lunatic, only wanting to fight against Kabukicongo... He found their tactics amazing, their formations above par, their skill worthy of so much more praise. He was moved to tears by their strength, and summoned tissues to dry his eyes. Such worthy strength survived his Limit Break, but not the mess afterward that resulted in a victory for the Shadow Paladin.
Raging Form asked for his name.
"A ninja never reveals his identity."
Magnificent.
Yunos called him an idiot. Wasn't he angry before this happened?
The Dragon Coaster finally made its last lap, stopping at an entrance into the tower. This truly felt like a classic RPG, saving their damsel in distress from the tower of a wicked sorceress. Nay, a vile demon lord. Or perhaps... another evil dragon?! Honestly, Yugure didn't care, but Ezel sure did. That duo held the princess captive, but what could happen next? Alfred asked the Chosen Sword and the lion if they were prepared. Of course they were. Adjusting the Reality Bangle that has been giving off an extraordinary amount of power, they all steeled themselves.
Marron and Dorint pointed out one of the sights being a giant sandcastle, but Yunos threatened to throw them into one of the pitfalls left by the ninja again.
They shut up.
Yugure entered the princess' throne room. A twisted, creepy organ was played by no one in particular to give the knights the ominous feeling of terror this setting begged. Yes... this was the final boss. A being beyond a simple Koopa King. The Princess herself that had been taken by the power of evil - the might of Link Joker. Walking down the red carpet to her prize - her beloved family - the Chosen Sword approached. Fury and love rampaged as the two central emotions. Before them was practically a cage that contained Hana - Hana's own Reversed front. At the same time, she was to be commended for doing something so ridiculous for the sake of helping the resistance with information.
No matter what, however, Yugure rationalized it.
Hana should not be putting herself at risk like this. Yugure was the reckless older sister - that was her job.
Time to break this spell.
"Hana..." was called out to, despite knowing that girl was now slumbering. Sleeping in the bird cage.
Hope:
"Little" Fugue in G Minor
Hana's light was now shut and locked away. Only the darkness remained.
"Here it comes..." Nociel panicked and covered her ears.
The castle walls began to evaporate. The ceiling dissolved, revealing the night sky in it's full glimmer. Much more noticeable was the large black ring which levitated above their heads. Darkness which composed the castle began to ooze and flutter around the two, leaving only the ground beneath their feet in tact.
"Right then, now that I can let it all go! The finale!"
The reverse energy gathered behind her and stabilized, forming bar lines of a musical composition. Notes of all types danced along with the music that played, the song reverberating across the entire Amusement Park. The reversed fights responded, their energy wrapping around the Princess, as she commanded them like the conductor of a grand orchestra, weaving the void and forming it into her grand design.
"A darkness was born from a curing light, from Angels whom have fallen from heaven. They ask to return, but are given no passage. So they decide to strike down the heavens themselves!" Hana chanted and grinned, "If there is no lord to follow, the angels are lost. What is justice? What is right? In the end, all are wrong and..."
Ramiel's image ascended from the gate, "...we will simply just put everything to an end."
The two spoke together, their voices as one. Both emotionless yet full of conviction, as if professing a creed. "This is love. We love everyone and so we will destroy them, and free them from this world that is nothing but suffering. We will cure all their wounds, and take away the pain by ending their lives all together. Earth and Cray... They are..."
The energy formed a score behind the Princess, slowly flowing into her as she prepared her deck for battle. Ramiel turned into a dark bolt which stuck her deck, causing four copies of her card to appear within it. A panel appeared and the Princess placed her deck down. She was prepared for the fight.
"Earth and Cray are... hell, we have to free everyone from it. That includes you, Yukinee. Give in to the void! Join all of those whom have been saved by giving themselves to the nothingness."
Cherry:
Yugure tossed off her gloves and jacket, removing any sort of restriction. "Before I even consider doing any of that, allow me to save you first."
The sisters found themselves in yet another duel for the other. The Chosen Sword was here to liberate Hana from the void that overtook her, and the Princess Maestro responded with trying to take her into Link Joker. Naturally, joining those disgusting invaders was going to be rejected with all might. Liberators, having a lion at their side, raised their heads proudly. Through the clash, Yugure managed to create a lead with taking no damage. However, with Grade Threes swarming her her as per usual, it was obvious this could be a struggle. Celestials had a trait that put them ahead in the Paladin's own game: the ability to take damage checked rearguards and call them. Not only that, but put Perfect Guards from damage to hand.
Undaunted, the queen pressed on with a lack of rearguard units anyway. The Reality Bangle did mostly what it was designed to do: force miracles. Combating the fallen angel of Reverse was easier like this, not relying on luck. Even so, the black winged divinity descended: Ramiel Reverse. Tearing away at Yugure's rearguards, Hana was clearly struggling with herself, despite the belief she was asleep in the void. Her Reversed self was speaking of ending everyone's suffering of the invaders out of "love". Tainting a golden heart with twisted nonsense helped keep the elder sister angry.
Gancelot Zenith appeared without a lot of allies, but did what he could. This ferocious battle that the Liberators were barely holding their ground in continued. Celestials of Angel Feather keep pressing them down, and blood was spilling for the knights.
"This is really how bad it is. That's why I had to come back like this", Ezel stated. He left because of the horrible wars the invaders gave them. Not with Link Joker, but with people they called friends. Those they cherished. Allies, lovers even. He returned to start big: saving the nation. Yes, the entire Sanctuary. Of course he wouldn't be doing it alone. He'd be doing it with his friends, comrades, and those who were released by the spell.
Yugure and Ahmes took lead with Zenith in a desperate turn. Yugure still didn't give up, nor did she give up on Hana's words either. The princess herself was suffering, she had to see that. Failure? The Chosen Sword was a living failure, and still considered it to be a milestone in moving forward. Hana believed she failed, so the queen shouted: "And this is how you succeed?!"
Not if they had anything to say about it.
Ahmes struck, and then Zenith would call him back to war with Alm's combo. However, Hana had two Perfect Guards. An unstoppable defense. Even so, the woman didn't care. As long as she could still breathe, she would fix everything. That included not being there to guide Hana away from such a destructive path.
That's when it happened.
Nociel had been speaking all game. Not only that, but she greatly interfered with a Twin Drive on Hana's end.
More than anyone, Nociel had been fighting with this. Star Rain stated that she was more than deserving of title "second best girl". The Liberator clearly still wanted to be the best, but Yugure was touched to hear the praise alone. That aside, the queen offered an apology. Playing the blame game, she took it all for herself. A full apology would have to come later, however. Nociel opened the way to victory at the command of Hana's heart. Nociels guarded Zenith, but both Perfect Guards got swapped into damage for Ramiel and Ramiel Reverse.
Taking this fight on together, a double critical arrived. Ahmes, who was unstoppable at that moment, took the features of Yugure as he always would. Her snowy white hair, bladed eyes, everything that signified the synchronization. With Blaster Blade shooting forth, Ezel managed to get behind Ramiel - behind Hana. The salvation scissors unlocked, chipping away at the Black Rings in rapid succession, snipping them apart.
The spell was breaking - the spell was broken.
Yugure didn't care in the slightest if Hana "failed". She failed too. All she wanted was her little sister back, and that is what has been returned. A lot of messes aside, the queen simply put gloves in her pocket, took her jacket, and walked up to the now slumbering princess. It had been a long time, and it was time for Hana to be properly tucked into bed. Wrapping her up in the black jacket, Yugure picked her up, carrying her princess-style.
"Good work, everyone."
Ezel pat Ramiel on the back, welcoming her home. All of the injured paladins were in a happy frenzy over the mission's success.
OverDrive:
A coated figure descended near the gate of the Amusement Park, his main goal is to test a theory he has regarding that odd message he got from Haruto's apparent kidnapper. The note said "Can Diablo come out to play? I already have a table for three, haha", obviously there was no clear meaning but any clues would help, lately Tsubasa has been feeling quite unstable, reliving the moment when his parents died, realizing that Haruto could fall under the same situation truly hurt him.
As the young man unzipped his coat, put on his jacket and took off his mask, he walked through the gates of the Amusement Park, "..Wait for me brother, I won't let you down."
One thing was interesting for Tsubasa, mostly because during his last visit to this place there was an attraction that welcomed it's guests with the sign "Come out, Come out and Play!", it seemed far fetched but it also was his only clue as of yet, though something felt odd about that sign.
"..May I enter this attraction please?" he asked.
"Oh welcome, of course you can, may I have your name?" said the clerk.
"...............Diablo"
"...Oh, that name, I have a message for you, "Beat my high score in zone 5"."
"..Why's that?"
"A friend of yours came here and played a little here, he was one of the few who reached zone 5."
"....What did he look like?"
"Couldn't tell you he was wearing a mask, and having to much fun with it."
"..Thank you for the info." he said, as he walked in.
The nature of this game, was that you were given a timer and within that time you had to pop every balloon around you with a small BB gun, the more you progress through the game the lower the time becomes and the more balloons there are.
"...This is child's play..." he said, noticing that no one is playing this game aside from him. After approximately 10 minutes he had already cleared all 4 zones leading to zone 5, new record achieved.
As the 5th zone presented itself the situation was a bit more different this time around, after Tsubasa popped all the balloons something emerged from the area in front of him within the room, a speaker of some kind.
"Hahaha, I knew you would make it this far, you simply don't disappoint do you Diablo?"
"....It's him..." he thought, as he quickly put on the mask and coat before anything on the side caught his identity.
"Please don't think that this is the end of our little game, no it's just the start, I have an invitation for you but in order for you to get it you'd have to beat my little friend here."
Just then the area in front of him opened an underground door and from it rose a table and one of those amusement park robots that just say "Have fun, Have fun" all day long, except this one greeted him with this line, "Beginning Cardfight procedures."
"..You're honestly joking."
"Try to enjoy it, though there is something for you to keep in mind, no one really comes to this zone it takes a lot of speed for someone to handle it, which is why I had all the time I needed to prepare this little surprise, hahahaha."
"..Fine i'll get this over with quickly."
"Hold up, you should know that everything I will throw at you will not be this simple, you see this cardfight will also have a timer, but the twist is this timer does not mark how much time you have before you win, it marks how much time you before this little toys I put here self-destruct, HAHAHAHA, and if you want to disable all of this you have to get through my friend here, and after that you'll have to wires to choose from, your fate shall be decided after the next 10 minutes, have fun."
________________________________________________________________________________________________________
The cardfight between Diablo and the robot did not take that much time, Diablo opted to push his opponent from 2 to 5 using Dragruler's consecutive Limit Breaks, and powering up his lanes to deal the final blow. With the robot defeated a small hatch opened and revealed the wires that need to be disabled, but there was a different situation here.
"..Wait this is..."
"Hahahaha! Surprise surprise, 3 wires, yellow, blue and red, and you only have one try, poor poor Diablo, you only have two minutes to go, I told you to expect some twists."
For the next minute Diablo simply touched all of the three wires, his heart racing since he can't figure out a pattern from this situation, that was when he noticed something odd, the yellow wire was painted blue for some reason...what does that mean, was the thought that came to his mind.
"1 minute to go, and here I took the time to paint the sign for your happy day of arrival, well I guess you were not up to it, i'll be sure to give the kid the news, how his hero could not do anything to help him, hahahaha!"
"..Painted..."
That was the moment that Diablo figured it out, what seemed odd to him about the sign, was that it was painted red, last time he was here that sign was painted blue. This put him in a strange situation, while it is true that the red pain could signify that it was the right wire to remove, it also could be the blue wire that was painted on.
"...I'll take a chance for....you Haruto..." he said, a smile forming under his mask, as he pulled the wire he chose....
"Bingo! Not bad Diablo, this was fun, now we move onto the next stage, you've earned the invitation to my party for three, I expect you soon, mind you the boy is very impatient, hahaha."
With that all of the devices that were setup here went out of order, leaving Diablo with the task of cleaning up this place, but under the speaker, was a note that revealed itself after the timer was stopped, this one read. "Skyscraper, Lights, and a table for three, I expect to see you in Gotem City."
"...Tch, I'm coming Haruto.." he said, as he cleared the area tossing all of the new equipment into the recycling bin behind the park, and walking out of the attraction, after removing his coat and mask.
"Did you have fun?" said the clerk.
"...I guess..." he replied.
His next destination was set, Gotem City is where Haruto and this madman have went, and with that he has to do the same.
