[h2]Saber - Castle Tepes[/h2] Saber gave a nod in respect to the agreements with her rulings. She had hoped she properly judged the combat roles of her allies correctly, and as neither of them had said anything to contradict what she had assigned to them she felt that she had indeed made the appropriate judgements based on their capabilities. For herself, the answer was obvious. While it was unlikely she would use the full powered function of her Noble Phantasm, for fear of harming allies or causing extensive damage to the castle, she could fight without fear of damaging the building outdoors, in addition to utilizing the lower-powered capabilities of Excalibur. ... It was obvious even to her that Gintoki seemed displeased, but he did not protest, either. Perhaps he didn't like the position but agreed that he would be useful there? Or... Saber hesitated for a moment. "... I will be taking a position outside of the castle... Gintoki, if you believe you may be more useful in another location..." [h2]Castle Tepes[/h2] The vampiric Queen paused for a moment, only a moment, when she ran across some of the newcomers to her castle. It was... some guy with an enormous key, a cat-like woman, and... a... kitsune? No, kitsune normally used their human-like forms. Queen Tepes had been to their lands before and met several of the youkai(it was around the time she had hired her yuki-onna maid, Rei). So... it was some kind of fox creature. It didn't take a genius to guess that these were probably foreigners to her reality. Quite a few of the maids, of various kinds, were peering at them with no small amount of confusion. "... You seem to be lost, if you're in my castle without my consent," the child vampire began, slowly approaching, "I can hardly imagine what put you here without my awareness." [h2]Kirisame Marisa - Academy City[/h2] Marisa grumbled under her breath as she was reeled in and put into handcuffs. Jeez, she just wanted to dress the tiny girl up, what was the harm in that? It wasn't even a lie, this time she actually wasn't intending to steal anything... Immediately! ... Not that she lied anyway nope Kirisame Marisa was the straight edge of truth who never once lied to anyone and anyone who said otherwise was the liar, not Marisa! And now her broom was gone, too... how was she supposed to go looking like a witch if she couldn't even have a broom? Jeez... If she could fold her arms, she definitely could! But instead she went for pouting as she walked along. "... Why [i]does[/i] he wanna see me, anyway?" Marisa asked, inclining her head to the side. "Am I so awesome he knows about me too?" [h2]Black Rock Shooter - Pensee[/h2] The otherself straightened, shaking her head slightly. The sensation of travelling between the two worlds was disorienting, she felt off-balance for a few moments, and her vision swam. It was, in fact, more offputting then the first time she had traveled through a wormhole from her home to the desert. Soon the strange feelings abated, and she could clearly see her surroundings. It was a western medieval town, one not unlike something that could be seen in some form of light fantasy. There were native beings to this world surrounding them, humans who looked completely stunned and confused by their presence as Black Rock Shooter tested her legs on the cobblestone street. She glanced behind her, and was surprised to see that the portal appeared to have followed. Indeed, there was a similar structure to the one that had been in the desert, now standing in the square. The little blonde girl based through the portal with Mikoto, looking around in awe at her surroundings. She did not seem so adversely effected by the rapid transit, somehow. Instead, she quickly shot to her feet, tugging on Mikoto's hand. "This is so much better than that desert!" she declared, "There's no... weird idiots... Pensee seems great! I think I might actually be glad you woke me up now!" She turned to Mikoto, giving her a wide smile. It was about then that the image of the desert inside the portal faded away entirely. The lights on this version's console died, as well, flickering out. [h2]Dlanor A. Knox - The Museum World[/h2] Dlanor paused outside of the museum, a safe distance away. The fires were being quelled by this point, the fire team doing their best to save as many artifacts as they could. Some of the disaster systems had come online and saved some of the works inside of it, but others had sadly perished in the blaze. Thankfully, there were no causalities. The UMMA base was dispatching its guards. There was an individual in some kind of small mecha, completely obscured from view, a robed girl with a glittering staff, a man with an enormous sword crackling with electriciy, and several soldiers of varying appearance armed with various weapons. A chamber is rolled along with them, the interior fitted with various clamps. Clearly, it was intended for transport of a high-threat prisoner. [h2]Shadow Eternity Vessel [i]Foecrusher[/i][/h2] To be honest, this kind of thing wasn't exactly unexpected from an ork... still, the katana-wielding woman had hoped things would be a bit smoother then this. To be fair to him, he seemed to have thought this out more then she had initially expected. Still... it was a good opportunity, however, to open the plan up for further discussion. After all, the goal was no to minimal casualties and the capture of the Eye of the Serpent. Then they'd be well on their way to completing Nidhogg once they achieved it. The next step would be getting the control module and the control throne... "The previous attempts to take the Eye ended, well... there was no bloodshed, but let's just say our soldiers were a little bit embarrassed after being throne out of the castle by a bunch of maids," she explained, "They're a lot stronger then they appear, which is why we're going with a much larger force now. As for large exoskeletoned fellow, he seems quite effective, but... well, if something goes wrong, we can't rely on him, as was stated previously. I feel it's best to have multiple alternative plans rather then simply relying on a single one." [h2]The Leader - Shadow Eternity HQ[/h2] The Leader inclined her head to the side quietly for a moment. There was little else to do in the end, and therefore all that could be said was... "Take it. It's yours." As if on cue, the soul flared slightly, burning brighter for a moment before dying down.
