[color=ed1c24]"You humans are too predictable, it's [i]almost[/i] unfun to be paid to hunt down your kind."[/color] The Youkai assassin atop the building said, just as Vincent's caused the nearest of them all to explode as well. As of now, it seemed that the Executioner was at an advantage. However, things were about to change as unexpected circumstances presented themselves in the form of a midget dressed in a Lolita style dress, running around like a kindergartner on a sugar high before stumbling face first into Vincent.

[color=ed1c24]"The game's over!"[/color] Yelled the voice of yet one more of the Youkai assassins, who used the unwittingly distraction created by Alice to dash from the position he had been hiding himself for the whole duration of the combat and slash the |Executioner's weapon in half twice with his twin swords, before delivering a spinning kick that would send even a target as heavy as Vincent crashing against the nearby wall.

Luckily for the Executioner it wasn't as damaged as it seemed (For him, that is. A normal human would have been turned into a bloody paste by such force.), only serving to open a crater on the side of the nearest building and causing a few minor wounds. Alice however was defenseless before him, though the assassin ignored her in favor of Vincent for the time being, only ever sparing the time to try and kick Alice away, though if said kick connected, Alice would be sent flying a considerably greater distance when compared with Vincent.

[color=ed1c24]"Perhaps, you haven't heard about me yet, Executioner. However, that's not important, dead men need no answers... die like your sister did."[/color] The three remaining Youkai said in unison as the one nearest to Vincent threw his swords at him, using the flames to accelerate them to bullet like speed, certain that this would be able to penetrate Vincent's defenses if they managed to hit.

Turning around to shoot another shrapnel-filled fireball, this time at Alice's direction, the Youkai said, [color=ed1c24]"No matter how enjoyable this encounter is, I have more things to do. Just die, like the flies you are."[/color]

With the last wave of attacks, the ghost's outer shell finally crumbled, revealing the ragged bunny that Kazuki found at the theater floating inside one of the memory bubbles and still locked by Harumi's spiritual chains.

[color=cd5c5c]"So, that's its core, huh? That's so... unfair"[/color], Harumi said, looking like she was indignant with the ghost's true form, before softening her features and turning toward the Chasers to say, [color=cd5c5c]"I'll put this child to rest, now. To something like this to happen it's quite painful, to say the truth. You can stay and look if you wish, otherwise, I guess you can count your mission as complete, right?"[/color]

[color=cd5c5c]"Oh! Hmm... I haven't introduced myself yet, sorry."[/color] Harumi said putting one hand behind her head and laughing nervously like an idiot, [color=cd5c5c]"I'm Harumi Shizuka, the next in line to become the World's Strongest Mage. It was fun to work with you, so please, sent my regards to Miss Aria when you're back to the Dangeki. By the way..."[/color] Harumi flashed a grin to the Chasers, specially to Kat (because of her military-like attire) and finished her statement with, [color=cd5c5c]"If you see any UFOs or aliens out there, don't forget to tell me, ok?[/color]"

With that said, Harumi turned on her heels and began the exorcism ritual, that they could choose or not to watch. In case any one of them did, Harumi would be able to talk after it was complete, but it would take about 15 minutes to do so. Anyway, the mission at Amagumi park was complete, since they had found and dealt with the source of the turmoil at the park, all that was left now, was going back to the Dangeki.

[color=6ecff6]"Haha! You do love pointing what could go wrong with my plans, not? Some times I think you secretly want to see me fail."[/color] Haruka said to Kiara as they ran thorugh the desert track, though, it was clearly a joke, given the tone with which she said next, [color=6ecff6]"You're so cruel, Kiara..."[/color]

Anyway, since Rui-LIng was demonstrating the greatest in terms of unsportsmanship by intentionally halting his own progress just to make sure that Suzumebachi loses as well, Haruka and Kiara indeed crossed the finish line ages before the other two. When Rui-Ling and Suzumebachi arrived, they would find Haruka handing a can of an energy drink she got from a nearby machine to Kiara, before gulping on her own.

[color=6ecff6]"Sorry for intruding on your testosterone fueled fun, guys"[/color], Haruka said with more than a bit of mockery discernible in her voice, [color=6ecff6]"In fact, I think you two make a great couple. Obviously, I'm not one to hold prejudice, if you two ever decide to..."[/color]

[b]"Hey, Moeblob, control that mad bitch's tongue, unless you want my boys to give you a lesson!"[/b] Suzumebachi yelled to Kiara once Haruka's provocation finally got through him, [b]"If you want the information just take it and leave, I grew tired of playing with you. We're doing those robberies because some bigwig of Yotsuba paid us to, but I don't give a shit about what they're gonna do with all that!"[/b]

[color=6ecff6]"Well then, we have what we came here for. As Kiara said, we've been tracking those guys for weeks, but now is the first time YTC's name shows up. Have a good night, Ling-Ling and sorry again about your race~"[/color] Haruka said with a cheery tone before getting on her motorcycle and waiting for Kiara, so that they could goon an actual date now.

Once Alex and Isotta arrived, Orihime's situation wasn't really that good. Her doll's dress was tattered in many places and marking of deep cuts and bites covered the artificial being's body, despite the fact that not even a single drop of blood poured from her wounds. Orihime on the other hand was bleeding and breathing in a ragged way the effort of the continued assault being too much for her.

The carelessly thrown trash container was yet another problem as it would hit Orihime along with its original targets, were not for the fact that the doll almost teleported before it, slamming it with a backhanded chop that sent the metallic contraption flying toward a nearby wall, even if it costed her an arm, revealing the clockwork-like machinery under her skin.

[color=9966cc]"No!"[/color] Orihime cried as the attack of the beasts seemed to get ever so more intense, the arrival of the Chasers, seemingly only having been good to arouse them, even if a part of the pack turned their four eyes to Alex and Isotta, there were still more than enough to be threat to Orihime.

[b]"Wahahaha! That's the end of the line for you, descendant of the Marioneteers!"[/b] A voice came from over a nearby lamppost. It belonged to a [url=http://i.imgur.com/xkBBOS3.jpg]man[/url] dressed in dark trench coat and wearing a kitsune mask, who continued his speech in an even more exaggerated way, [b]"The Beastmasters will never allow the existence of such an evil force, perish in the flames of despair as I summon forth my own beast... MINOTAURUS!"[/b]

With those words, what looked like a blazing meteor crashed just behind Alex and Isotta, and from it rose a gigantic man/bull [url=http://i.imgur.com/yL1Hyk6.jpg]creature[/url] covered in flames, swinging his massive axe down as a wave of fire washed over the Crimson bathed streets. [b]"This is a farewell gift for you have done, Orihime Tokisada. Even your new found allies won't be able to help you now. Oh, Flaming Bull of the Heaven's, smite those pests, under the seal of command from the Beastmasters Clan!"[/b] The man said before walking away nonchalantly.

[color=000000]"RRRRR!"[/color] The beast roared.

The real battle was about to begin...
