Magical Girls - Grey and Black - RP Thread

[AshK]

Erika heard the girl. She then quickly relieved herself somehow knowing she had to sit down. She then also washed her hands.

"Oh H-hi." Erik...no...Erika said. "I think my name is Erik--" she was about to finish the sentence with her last name but then looked down at what looked like a ridiculously abbreviated girls school uniform with bows and then corrected herself "Erika, Erika Aizawa, nice to meet you." Erika said as she felt a shiver go up her spine. "So do I. So shall we go see what's up?" Erika asked. "Something is telling me I need to go by another name in this form, I just can't think what." As Erika said that a strange symbol on her forehead that seemed to be glowing inside the jewel on her tiara shined. If Teresa remembered her planetary symbols right, she would know that it was the symbol of the Jovian Moon Ganymede.

Teresa's eyes continued to glow the eerie green color as she was introduced to Erika. "Pleased to meet you, Erika. We'd better go see what is going on. By the way, is that a planetary symbol on your outift?" Her eyes stop glowing, returning to their blue shade. "You can explain on the way. Come on!" The new healer/mage leads Erika out of the bathroom to the disturbance, with Teresa's eyes glowing green from time to time, as if she was a human compass towards the source of the danger. From time to time, Teresa would stop to get her bearings, sensing out the source of the disturbance. "Some one is in great danger. I can sense when someone is hurt or in pain."

U-ugh... *Paul slowly opened his eyes and crawled to his feet in reaction to the commotion around him has he tries to work out what just happened. The last thing he remembered was that weird, light blue flame - it kind of reminded him of the water at... Wait.* My... my legs... *Yes, it finally occurred to Paul that he was indeed standing. The thing from before had healed his legs, just like it promised! Something was still wrong, though. His legs looked strange, like they belonged to someone else...*

*Paul looked around, briefly spotting some other similarly confused-looking people (two of whom seemed to be running somewhere) before finding what he was searching for - a shop window, showcasing his reflection... or was it his? The girl looking back at Paul certainly didn't look like him, with her lightly curved figure, back-length hair, deep green eyes, and frilly blue dress. There was no one else here it could be, though... Before Paul could give this much thought, the voice from before spoke again.*

"It looks like you will have to take it from here. This will be your first test. I would rather it not be so soon, but this situation is hardly ideal."

W-what...? *Before Paul could ask the cat-like creature any of the questions running through his mind, his attention was called away by the cries of the girl fighting the monster behind him.* You said you wanted me to fight before... Is that what you meant?

[Kris_Roth]

Teresa saw the other confused girl (Paul) staring at a shop window. "There is no time to be window shopping. Someone is in need of our help!" Teresa was a young girl of Japanese ancestory, with long black hair, blue eyes framed with glasses, and wearing a strange blue-green robe with a hood over her head, along with matching boots and gloves.

[Shadowmaster]

"Wake up." Jimmy heard the voice, of course, as they all had. That didn't mean he had to listen to it. The things he had seen, heard, and experienced over the last few minutes made him wonder if even immortality was worth it all.

The pain he had felt after that...click. It was worse than anything he had ever experienced. Breaking his arm years back had nothing on it, at all. And then that flame, that odd, deep red flame appeared, and he was goaded into taking it by the same voice that was now beckoning him to wake up. The same voice that, he guessed, was behind all the pain and craziness he had just gone through.

Nope, no way. He had had just about enough of listening to this thing. He continued to lay on the ground, eyes tightly shot.

"Wake up, now!" he heard, the voice gaining urgency. He opened his mouth, about to yell for it to shut up, when he heard a loud crashing noise.

Jimmy's eyes snapped open, and he jumped to his feet. It was at this moment, that a few things struck him as really freaking weird. First, there was the giant, burning monster that was now standing in the middle of the town. He was pretty sure that that hadn't been there a few moments ago.

Secondly, there some girls all getting off the ground as he was. Had the voice made them the same offer? Were they in the same position he was? He didn't know, and the monster and Jimmy's third revelation pushed those thoughts to the side very quickly.

The third realization came from when he got to his feet, and his body felt...off. He felt stronger, but also smaller, and his body seemed to be moving differently. He saw one of the girls looking into the window of one of the shops, seemingly shocked by what she saw. He turned his head to look into the same window, and the image he saw reflected put him into the same state of shock.

Jimmy approached the window briskly, watching the girl in it do the same, matching his movements perfectly. When he stood directly next to the window, he scowled, as did the girl, and sighed. "When I said I didn't want to be an old man..." he said, wincing a bit at his new voice, "I didn't really expect this to be your solution." Among the other changes, he noticed his new eyes, the same color as that damn flame he had taken.

"It looks like you will have to take it from here." he heard, recognizing the voice as the one that had been speaking to him this whole time. "This will be your first test. I would rather it not be so soon, but this situation is hardly ideal."

He turned away from the window, looking to the monster holding the girl who had been fighting it. He could smell her flesh as it held her, and his new face contorted a bit. Then, he turned his attention to the...owlcat.

"You want us to fight that?" he asks. "And I guess since I agreed to be a warrior for you, I don't have too much of a choice, huh? But, unless you brought enough of those magic guns for all of us, I don't think we have too much of a chance." he adds, walking toward the creature. "And you definitely owe some answers as to why I look like this now."

[AshK]

Teresa's eyes continued to glow the eerie green color as she was introduced to Erika. "Pleased to meet you, Erika. We'd better go see what is going on. By the way, is that a planetary symbol on your outift?" Her eyes stop glowing, returning to their blue shade. "You can explain on the way. Come on!" The new healer/mage leads Erika out of the bathroom to the disturbance, with Teresa's eyes glowing green from time to time, as if she was a human compass towards the source of the danger. From time to time, Teresa would stop to get her bearings, sensing out the source of the disturbance. "Some one is in great danger. I can sense when someone is hurt or in pain."

"I do feel a strange sensation on my forehead." Erika said as she pulled out a hand mirror. She saw the symbol and couldn't help but think of her deceased mother. "What do I look like exactly? Do you have something that I can use to see what I look like?"

(OOC: Erika looks like this) Teresa may notice the current outfit of Erika. Erika then remembers what her mother told her. "The way my mother stated this form was a name known as Sailor Ganymede, I guess you are going to have to call me Ganymede when I look like this. Ganymede accompanies Teresa to the sight of the disturbance.

[Kris_Roth]

Teresa nods, "I remember there was this Sailor Senshi known as Sailor Ganymede. You must be her descendant!" She then looks around for any signs of the disturbance. "I don't know what my powers are exactly, but that strange voice offered me the power to heal people."

[AshK]

"I am really not sure what my powers are either." Ganymede said as she tried to think of what her powers were.

[Gee-chan]

OOC: Gah! Sorry, I got busy and entirely forgot this thing existed....my bad.

A loud crack explodes through the air, followed by a howl of fury as the girl in the monster's grip almost literally wrenches her arm out of it's socket, grabbing what looks like a sawn-off shotgun and firing it into the beast's head. While drowned out by the sound of the firearm, those who notice it cannot help but mentally hear the sickening crunch as the gunner's arm snaps from the brutal recoil. The beast's head explodes as it releases it's grip on the magical girl, who drops to the ground painfully.
She does not waste a moment before leaping to her feet and turning to face her opponent again. As she does so, she notices the group as they regather their wits.

"HEY!" she yells, "You shits going to stand there like morons or are you going to actually do something useful!?"

A blast of fire surges out of where the monster's head was slowly starting to grow back, throwing the foul-mouthed girl into a shop window and killing another dozen bystanders. As they are killed, the beast seems to recover somewhat, its damaged head restoring itself faster and the flames around it growing slightly brighter.
Now recovered, the flame beast's arm gathers a noticeably more concentrated ball of flame which it points in the direction of the broken window.




Jimmy:
The owlcat (OOC: heh, that is now what I am going to call this thing.) looks at you with it's neutral expression.
"Your powers are your own." it says simply, "the guns you see are simply the way her powers manifest. The way your magic works is a reflection of your personality and should come naturally, like an instinct."

Ganymede:
"So your mother never explained how her magic worked to you?" the owlcat says as it stares at you. "Then I shall tell you the same thing I told her. Your magic is the manifestation of your essence. It is a part of you and will come to you as naturally as breathing. When you crave your magic, it will come to you on its own, but like any tool, you must learn how to use it to its full effect."

Teresa:
"Your magic is a reflection of who you are and what you desire." the owlcat states simply, "So long as your desire is to heal, that it how your magic will appear. All you need do, it want it to happen."

Paul:
"Indeed. While I would have preferred to allow you to work out the basics before throwing you into battle, the situation requires otherwise." While the owlcat's words should have sounded concerned, it still spoke in that same neutral manner, making its words a touch unnerving. "Your magic will manifest when you desire it to. For now, allow instinct to guide your hand."

[AshK]

Ganymede focuses her Mana and thinks her eyes glow Navy and Orange as she remembers all of a sudden what her mom told her about her powers. In order for her to inherit the powers from Mint, Erik had to be turned into Erika. Erik wasn't about to get a sex change just for the sake of power. However, when he needed to fight, he accepted the price. Now her powers that once belonged to her mother now belonged to her. She focused as she executed her most powerful attack some how. "Ganymede Rock Slide Wave Wallop!" Ganymede said. Then all of a sudden a tidal wave of Rocks followed by a Rock Slide out of seemingly nowhere headed straight toward the monster. She was surprised that she could easily control it, at least she thought she could.

[Kris_Roth]

Teresa focuses her Mana to heal the female gunner's arm. "This is my first time healing someone. Please make this work..." She then concentrates on the injured girl's arm, her eyes change to the green glow. "I sensed you were in danger, and brought some friends. I hope they will know what their powers are."

[Ookalf]

My instinct... *Paul winces as he sees and hears the damage caused by the rampaging monster. Closing his eyes, he begins to reflect on what the owlcat told him.* Just... Just have to desire it...

*Paul makes a slow sweeping rising with his arms, as the ground begins to lightly shake, before a surging torrent of water emerges from a nearby manhole and rushes toward the monster.*

[The HOD]

Struggling support herself, Evelyn awoke to her new body.

Looking down on herself, she found her form had been considerably altered, not to quite the degree as the others, she would later discover, but changes had still been made.
Her figure was nicely slim and petite with strong, noticeable chest. Her skin is as smooth and silky, utterly devoid of stains or flaws of any kind.
She now wore a short and simple yellow dress while around her neck was an amulet centred around a ruby that glittered like crystallized blood. Behind her was a flowing cape of regal crimson woven with intricate arcane designs that almost seemed to flow and change on their own accord.

She felt clumsy, awkward and embarrassed in this form, and yet there was a strange sense of grace to every movement she made that was somehow instinctual. She wanted her old body back, why had it been stolen? Why did the mysterious voice take her seriously? She was sure that she added enough obvious sarcasm in her voice.
She grips her arm, suddenly feeling the increased strength in her grip and finding it more than mildly disurbing.

“Give me back my body...give it back, you stupid voice...” her voice shaking in confusion and shock.

[Gee-chan]

Evelyn:
The owncat looks at you blankly. "The deal cannot be undone." it states, "You accepted the terms in return for power. Any alterations made to your form are either to facilitate the use of your magic or to increase your suitability to your purpose."

Teresa:
The restorative energy flows into the fallen gunner's arm, but you quickly find that all you can do is set the broken bones in place; you are currently not skilled enough to make them mend so quickly. Besides, you have more pressing matters. Half of the girl's skin is a mass of burns and many of her internal organs are cooked. Judging my the current of magic flowing through her body, it it only her own power that is keeping her alive right now.
You can only imagine the pain she must be in, which is why it surprises you when she stirs and weakly tries to get back up.

"Sod off." she growls, angrily but weakly, "I'm going to kill that prick!"

Ganymede and Paul:
The surge of water beats against the monster, evaporating on impact but making it howl in agony as the shards of rock shoot through its torso, causing massive damage. As the rocks tear it apart and the torrent of water bombards the increasing number of holes in it, the flame-beast is forced to the ground.
Suddenly, it vanishes with a rapidly dwindling flash of flames, however, the feeling of its' presence in still there. The area is almost saturated with its' malignant presence, its drive to kill, but you cannot discern where it is hiding.

[Kris_Roth]

Teresa stammers as her "patient" objects to her "treatment", "B-but you are in need of medical attention....My father's a doctor...he can find a specialist to treat your wounds....you are in no condition to fight!"
