[F5-PP] The Devil with the Sands (Bloodstained Lands)

[Eruda 0]

Her level was increasing quickly, she would not stop till she felt she was high enough to finally fight along side Raidou. A shift of papers littered upon the table of the guild hall. She grips a paper. It was a quest that she had been avoiding for a while now. Today though felt right. Today was the day that she felt like she could handle the damage that this creature in the sands could do. Sending a message to Shiina, Sam, and Freya saying -Gear up, prepare for a fight and to meet her on floor 6-. Taking a deep breath, she was ready. She has become strong enough to take a hit and with Shiina there, even more... Placing all the papers back where she found them, she heads out of the guild hall with confidence. Shutting the door and looking out her eyes meet the midday sky. Another deep breath, closing her eyes and feeling the wind against her face. "I am ready," saying as she heads to floor 5.

Arriving there she takes the quest and waits...

[Shiina 0]

Getting the message from Eruda, she sends one back as she snaps awake. It was sort of legible, but Shiina had a habit of sleeping in. The message would read back: Duh Ok. Short and sweet, as Shiina begins to roll and fumbles to the floor with a groan. "Too early." She weasels around the floor like a worm, in her skivvies as she slithers into clothes from a pile. A few minutes later she manages to find all the parts of her plate armor and get them on. A sharp clap of both hands on her face, trying to get the sleepy out of her. "Right, Ok, we do the thing." Shiina exhumes to an empty chamber, before making for the door. Following direction and heading out of her shop into the city of Coral. Using the warp gate and dropping almost face first into the sand on floor 6. "I am here, I tired." she groans with a wobble.

[Freya 0]

Just getting done with a quest her and Sam sit across from each other having a conversation with giggle attached to some phrases. Sipping a cup of coffee, watches a message pop up on her HUD. "My sister don't rest for nothing does she. Well, I guess duty calls." Sam's HUD chimes soon after. "Wait you too?" Sam chuckles with a nod. "Okay then, let's go get some shit and get this show on the road." Both getting up from their chairs, they head to the guild hall first to pick up things that they might need for the quest that Eruda had taken. Eruda was a very busy person these days. 

Leaving the guild hall after grabbing a few buffs they both head to floor 6. Seeing Eruda and Sleepy Shiina, "So what is this dangerous quest you are needing help with." It couldn't be that bad if it was on floor 5 right. Accepting the party invite and quest share from Eruda. "Oh, this..." She remembers this one. She hoped that is would go the same way it did last time...

Arriving at floor 5 and getting the same invites as Freya does. Seeing droopy Shiina yawn Sam chuckle. "Here Shiina, have the rest of this. It's coffee, it tastes weird, but it does the trick." Sam hands the girl a half cup of coffee. She knew the effects that sugar had on her and she really looked like she needed it. Eruda explains the quest to Shiina knowing that Sam and Freya had done the research already. She also knew that Freya had already done it but explained that she needed the manpower to put this down quickly. Told Shiina to use ant de-buffs that she had because it was going to make a huge different. Sam clears her throat while she listens. Eruda was getting better and the pep talks at the beginning of the quests. Each one was very enlightening and very clear on what had to be done. The group starts to head out of the gates as Shiina starts sipping on the coffee.

Accepting the coffee from Sam sees her bouncing around like a phone set to vibrate receiving an incoming call. Her pupils dilate to the size of saucers, mostly black. "I can see the universe and everything in it." Her attention shifts to a random direction and she waves a hand in a greeting. "Hello Jack." She responds straight to the reader, able to see them past the barrier of their monitor. "Danger smanger!" Her attention quickly jerks back to Eruda in an instant before she rampages forward and plunks a single performance crystal into the sand. The sound comes back muffled before the beast emerges from the sand in anger. "Got it, get it, good!" Shiina exhumes with her hands flapping like flippers across the creatures butt like bongos, before she starts to sing. But the song seems like its on fast forward, something was broken. But at the same time the songstress was operating on overdrive.

The moment Shiina runs out and activates that crystal, making the thing pop out, Freya gets her Scythe out and charges full speed at the beast. Looking directly at her, she grins as she jumps over him doing a flip causing her Scythes point to dig into its back, tearing a chuck out of it. As she lands on the other side of him, she turns now seeing that she was forced to the ground by the shear pain that Freya had caused. It gets to its feet slowly making strange sounds that she didn't hear from it last time she fought it. At the corner of her eye she could see Sam's Axe. She was here now and using that opening Freya created. Grinning as she jumps back a bit not wanted to get tail swiped... They just got here and it was almost dead... They really have gotten stronger.

In the same instant that Freya takes a huge chuck of it health, Sam is right there carving her Battle Axe up the length of its side. The creature now screams out in pain. As it falls to the ground once more, it tries to make a quick escape. Starting to dig down to go under the sands again, Freya and Sam both grab the back legs of the creature and throw him toward Eruda. Tumbling to the ground with a slide. It quickly gets up looking around frantically. It was surrounded. There was not much it could do from here... Eruda approaches closer as Shiina was all up in its grill while still somehow singing in a crazy fast tone. The creature swipes its tail at Freya and Sam, they both jump back at the same time. Glancing to each other with a nod. They were ready to attack again.

[Eruda 0]

A shift of her shield to her chest. Her head moves slightly forward and then quickly back as her own conflicted battle roar as blues flames burst in every direction around her. Walking forward with the blues flames lighting within her eyes. "You will not touch them," she says in a very demanding voice. Right then the creature takes a swing at her as the large claw scrape against her and the shield with sparks flying and lighting it small blue flames. Right then she drags her sword across her shield causing large sparks to ignite like balls of blue flame against the creature scaled skin. "SHIINA," she says in almost a yell. So much rage, so much built up tension burning within her blood right now. She was furious... She stares the creature down as it begins to back away from Eruda... Behind him, Freya and Sam blocking his only way out...

Sharpness CD [1/2]

On Eruda's outcry, Shiina outcries with her signature jokes. "PRESENT!" before she raises her hands and forces a quick shift of the ground beneath all of their feet. The whole place swells as the sand starts to emanate out from here she stood. Extending one of her arms toward Eruda that ring turns violent for a moment. A sudden burst forces the field into a rich bluish circle as lines began to draw out in its circumference. A clasp of her fist causes Eruda's flames to swell. A violent yank down as if she was holding an invisible string on something and a yelp of the trigger: "Enduring Melody: Unyielding Barricade!" An outcry like a roaring army is heard from the furthest reach of the aura, and as a result Eruda's barrier detonates in a bubble. It was as if Shiina had slowed its attack and controlled the flames produced into a shield.

Sharpness fades after this attack

Freya and Sam's eyes widen as the see the colliding outburst of Shiina and Eruda... The creature is flung back about 50 feet from where Shiina circle that was place on the ground. They looks to each other as they think practically the same thing. The both turn and dart toward the creature that was still trying to get up from the exploding impact that was Shiina. The girls take to either side of him as they both slice and chop at the Sharks right and left sides till eventually it bursts into data. Looking to each other and then back at the group that was Shiina and Eruda, Freya raises her arms in excitement as they completed the quest. Latching arms with Sam now the both of them walk back to the group. "How about we go swimming. I know a place. you guys want to come. Ill bring snacks??" Looking to Shiina when she says snacks...

"SNACKS!" Shiina basically explodes, she was all about that noise. The boss was dead and they were done, so screw this desert and a beach seemed pretty damn cool right about now. No pun intended. A scampering toward the group rather quickly, she rushes up to each of them and offers a single pat. High fives all around. That was so dang easy. They really were getting super strong weren't they. It was as if Shiina knew them all so legit. Her skills were defined by them, and songs produced from what they accomplished. This quest would be no different once it was placed to a page. All those little memories would become music in the end, and Shiina was the first to begin quick strides back toward the dingy city that composed this floor. To get the heck out of here, and get her some snacks. Because life for the girl was simple.

[Sam 0]

Freya quickly gets to the front of the line. The beach was fine with her. She hadn't swam in forever. Not since the fishing trip with Haine and her boo. Eruda seemed to decline the offer for beach an snacks as she had something else to do. Not sure what but she was a very busy lady. They did it though, and as a team as it should be. Raidou's words stuck about the working together part. Eruda took the hit for all of us and Shiina healed her like a boss while she and Freya kicked the living shit out of it. I was a great feeling that made her insides all warm a fuzzy. 

Shiina and Sam go to the swinging area in the back yard practically of the guild hall while Freya produces snacks and junk. Sam takes off her robe, which she never did unless she was with Kat. She didn't want to get her robe wet though. She would go swimming in her tank top and shorts. 

[Shiina 0]

A clattering of various pieces of her armor in pieces clattering to the floor, as she stripped into her undies and yeeted toward the water. A rather sharp slap as she belly flops and begins to sink. Slowly floating back up belly side up, she was giggling. "Noice." Shiina expresses before seeking out Sam and nailing her with a blast of water in a spray. A giant playground where she could cause mischief, water was grand. An eye toward the other two girls, she waved her arms before a solid smack of the water coats Sam again. "You guy's comin' In or what?" Spoken as Sam finally paid her back by picking her tiny butt up and just dropping her in. She didn't even cling to the black haired string bean, just gets pawned. They were starting to get quite comfortable with one another, and one by one they were getting used to Shiina.

[Freya 0]

Coming back with a variety of colorful desserts for the group. Most of them she had already whipped in and in her fridge. Even she got a sweet tooth sometimes. Placing a blanket away from the water she smiles at Shiina and Sam messing around. Hearing foot step behind her, turning she sees Eruda. "Oh, here to join the party I see. About damn time you have some fun." Glance better at Eruda now she had a swimsuit on. "Well would you look at that," Eruda playfully nudged her. Freya takes a bite of a cupcakes and strips down to her under clothing. It was clear that Freya didn't really care, but Gaius had another thing coming if he were to show up here with her looking like this. "CANNON BALL" Freya calls out as she runs to the water with the other girls and jumps in with her knees to her chest. Splashing both Shiina and Sam. They were all laughing, having a great time... 

[Shiina 0]

Another splash as the rest of the girls began to join them all in the waves, even Eruda. Who was smart enough to bring a swimsuit. Shiina wasn't, and was swimming around in her pinkies. A clambering from the side sees Shiina take shelter behind Sam as Freya coats them both with a sudden jarring splash. Shiina begins to vanish beneath the water with her eyes open, glancing at the bottom of the pool and finding all kinds of strange objects on its bed. Coin's bits of metal, tiny sparkles and discarded shellfish homes. Clamming on to one and turning it over in her hand, a pure white back and running her index down it. It was smooth like butter, and a soft snicker is heard muffled. It was pretty and she'd be keeping it as a memorabilia. Popping back out, she'd show the thing to Sam first. "Look, I found a thing"

[Eruda 0]

Eruda walks to the walks just stepping in joining the others. Sam uses her skills to identify something that Shiina found. Freya was underwater diving. Eruda could see that everyone was having a great time. It was a pretty rough day but it ended very eventful. Eruda dives under water with her sister and opens her eyes. It was beautiful down here. She had never taken the time to see these waters close up and now that she did she fell in love with it. Sports were never her thing, but she liked swimming. She never really took the time outside of this game either to swim, but she loved it when she did. She sort of forgot about it with them being in the game. She had other things to worry about. Freya pulls Eruda up with her and gives her a huge hug. Hugging her back as her hair drips to her face.

Beach Episode! Shiina begins to swoon as Sam's eyes flare in gold, attempting identify what she had found. It was a regular ass seashell, but that didn't bother Shiina any. The thing was pretty and that was good enough, it didn't need to be magic. She contemplated what she'd do with it. Maybe use it as a paper weight on her composing desk in her shop. That seemed like a fair thing to do, either that or an ashtray and Shiina wasn't quite a smoker. A lift of her hand once Sam was finished sees the object stored into her inventory. That was probably what she'd end up doing with it, looking down in the crystal blue water and slinking into it. Remembering the battle and the skills she had used, along with others prior. They bounced around in her dome, as well as the thought of her next composition. What kind of melody would suit the battle of the terra firma?

[Sam 0]

Sam gives a small huff as it seemed to be nothing or worth really. A shine at the bottom was shown again. She wondered if that was anything of value. She did find her familiar in the waters so there had to be something good right. Sam takes a deep breath as she dive underwater. It took her a minute to get to the bottom because to be honest she forgot how to swim for a moment before making long arm strides to the bottom. Picking up the shard at the bottom as she began to lose breath being under too long. A huge puff gasp of air saying "Look Shiina I found a... Shiina..." she was gone. Where the hell did she go. Sam knew she was quick but damn. Glancing around further she was no where to be seen. "U guys Shiina is gone. She was here and then she wasn't..." Sam looks around highly confused. 

[Freya 0]

Pulling away from the hug she hears Sam say that Shiina was missing. Glancing around, she looks to Sam with a brow raised. "You lost her, she was right there." Sam gives her a look like duh... Eruda and Freya get out of the water now. Looking around for Shiina. "Where the hell did she go, SHIINA," Freya and Eruda start calling out for her. Sam dive back under water to look for her, but nothing. Eruda and Freya look at each other as Sam gets out of the water now. "Guys what if something bad happened to her." Sam says "Shiina is strong, she can handle herself." Freya: but what if this time she can't. I mean she just vanished. She could be anywhere and I have heard really bad stories." They all start to gather their things and clean up the mess in a hurry. They spent the rest of the day watching around for her in all her favorite places.

[Shiina 0]

Disappearing rather abruptly sees the girl off from the rest of the group, in her clothes but her armor left behind. "That was almost close during that quest, I really got to thank you for all you've given me." Shiina speaks toward the forest of memories. Another voice begins a reply toward the girl. "How much little songstress has grown. That voice of yours carries leagues now, does it not?" Shiina offers a nod. "Let me see, young songstress. Your heart." Shiina begins to sing, and a trigger of a single solitary skill that she had never used before. A flare of a gemini bestowed activation, paints her eyes in a beautiful gold. Her hair twists into a platinum blonde. A spoken phrase from the girl draws a rumble that causes the very ground to shatter under its influence, as multiple rings begin to take every bit of ground. A pair of faint wings that quickly disperse. "Phantasmal Chorus: Cry of the Ancients." her voice seemed different, focused. "Quite the effect, a gift worth its weight yes? Anna would be proud, small Shiina. That you hold it all, and effect the world with your grace." A nod from Shiina "I almost had to get serious, and I am waiting until that day finally happens."
