[Center][b]Ayano Wakahisa: [color=fff200]Warakuma Park
22/6/2015, Monday[/color][/b][/center]
Despite the fact that the park wasn't empty, it certainly felt like it was for Ayano. There were mothers with their children, middle-aged businessmen, old couples, and students from both Warakuma High and other schools but despite the abundance of people, the brunette felt the heavy silence between her and Kami. Needless to say, it was a very awkward situation. She even overheard two housewives thinking they were a couple going through something due to the distance and silence of the two teenagers, when she heard this, Ayano looked away from the boy and her she covered her face with her hands to hide the blush on her face. She groaned, people sure are quick to assume such things nowadays. She glanced a quick look at the boy, opening her mouth to say something but just as she was going to a familiar duo appeared out in the corner of her eye.

It was Rui and Kazuki, she wasn't sure how to feel. On one hand, she was thankful for them appearing and intercepting her conversation before it even started, who knows how embarrassing that would've ended, but on the other she felt shorthanded...

[i]"Am I interrupting something Kami?"[/i]

When the boy said that, the light blush that had subsided earlier had returned with full-effect. In a way he kind of did interrupt something...but that was something the girl didn't want to admit outright. After the initial shock, Kami began to unravel just what exactly kind of evidence and data he had discovered, if it was as urgent as that Kazuki guy had asked then surely it must be something eye-popping.

As the boy told the three of them what he had discovered so far, Ayano felt a chill run down her spine...It was one thing to read an enthralling murder-mystery novel, or play a visual novel with a similar genre or premise, but to actually be part of such a thing was decidedly leaning towards the [i]"scary"[/i] side of the spectrum rather than [i]"fun"[/i], or [i]"entertaining"[/i]. The whole concept of [i]"salvation"[/i] for the cultists reminds the girl of a series of games she had played before, the whole [i]"zealot's askew perceptions of paradise"[/i] concept was a little trite but nonetheless scary when one were to think deeply about it. Were this a RPG, Ayano would be confused on whether they're the [i][color=0072bc]Law[/color][/i] faction or the [i][color=ed1c24]Chaos[/color][/i] one. Kami continued with his report and Ayano earnestly listened, taking mental notes as best as she could.

Lady Asai...It was the name that one cultist said in Alexei's dungeon. She still couldn't believe her eyes when a shadow was summoned from that cultist, it was something out of a horror movie needless to say. Shaking her head, she returned her focus to the woman named Asai, who was apparently the cult leader's deceased wife and the Mirror World is their [i]"paradise"[/i], it sounds like something out of Silent Hill...Crazy cults, dead wives communicating through their husbands using otherworldly things, confronting the inner psyche and the monsters born from one's flaws, what next? Will Warakuma be covered in fog? Will they be entering a dungeon full of blood, rust and a certain entity with a shape for a head? And just when you think it'd be easy to just go ahead and kill the cult leader, he's sealed himself away deep in the Mirror World, just great. If that man didn't sound like an end-game boss, Ayano doesn't know what is. She's already calling dibs that he'll have two forms or something. And that concludes Kami's report, certainly a big chunk of data had been revealed to them, and if anything it did make understanding the cult an their motivation's a little easier. Eventually, Rui and Kazuki left, leaving Ayano and Kami alone once again...She breathed deeply and faced the boy, a small smile on her lips.

After all, he must be beat after all that investigating.

[Center][b]Ayano Wakahisa: [color=fff200]Mirror World - Crossroads
28/6/2015, Sunday[/color][/b][/center]

No rest for the wicked, that's what it seemed like for the Investigation Group. This time, they had three victims chosen to go this [i]"paradise"[/i] while the name's weren't exactly familiar to Ayano, she nonetheless felt a sense of justice that she just needed to save these three. When they had reached the crossroads, she glanced at the names of the three structures that they'd be facing...
[i]"Moritomi Home for the Disturbed"[/i], [i]"Hall of the Slain"[/i], and [i]"Super Magical Runway"[/i].
Seeing the name of the last almost made Ayano laugh, she hummed the tune of [i]"One of these is not like the others."[/i] to express her surprise at the dungeon, but then one remembers that life and death are on the line. The brunette steeled herself, no matter how many times she's done it, she still feels a sense of uneasiness and anxiety whenever she has to summon Dantalion.
