[Center][b][Color=skyblue]Scout Winters[/color], [color=fff200]Lily Lightning[/color], [color=aba000]Alexander Shields[/color] [s], [color=FF4F76]Anaya Hathaway[/color][/s][/b] ([@Majoras End][@Ariamis] [@Card Captor])[/center] [Color=skyblue]"Dont worry bout my ability, I always save some mana incase I gotta heal someone."[/color] Scout reasured Suwako, calling her familiar back to her shoulder. [Color=skyblue]"Anyways, you go on ahead. Ill see you later, Suwako. Maybe."[/color] She said, walking back to her motorcycle and driving back to the main road. [hr] The next day, Scout had chosen an apartment to stay in, and was driving to a nearby clothes store. [Color=crimson][i]Something's up.[/i][/color] Maura suddenly spoke up, suprising the young witch. [I][Color=skyblue]What now? I just got here and already I got caught up in a fight, so please tell me its just normal monsters..[/color][/i] She internally sighed, but perked up when the lesser force had explained about the train station attack going on. Revving up her vehicle, Scout went off course and through the quickest route set on the motorcycle's GPS. Unbeknownst to Scout, another magical girl was also driving through the city on a motorcycle; Lily Lightning, with Alexander Shields as a passenger behind her. She zoomed through a traffic jam with skill, slipping through the cracks with a couple of hops, and was soon off. [color=fff200]"Seems like a lot of people relied on public transport to get here,"[/color] Lily mused to herself. She saw a mysterious girl driving towards the train station too, a lot faster than was the speed limit; Lily smirked. "I'll show you who's the real speedster around these parts!" She shouted, and sped up, approaching her from the side. "[color=aba000]Please don't[/color]" Alexander groaned [color=fff200]"Hi there! Nice day to go all out, right?"[/color] She waved to the girl with both hands as the motorcycle turned and adjusted speed without her input; Ixion was fully capable of driving on his own. [Color=skyblue]"Huh- WHOA."[/color] Scout looked over at the duo to see their cycle driving it's self. [i][Color=skyblue]Yep. Definitely another magical girl.[/color][/i] she thought before looking over to Lily. [Color=skyblue]"Yeah! It's a lovely day to maybe take a train, per say?"[/color] Scout replied, tilting her head to the side in curiosity. Lily smirked; after she had encountered magical girls hidden in public, she began to develop an eye for unusual behavior common to them. Reckless driving was one of them, and she was guilty of it as well, not that she cared. [color=fff200]"I wouldn't go there unless you got magic powers or something with all the monsters running around! I know, cause I'm a magical girl! You wouldn't happen to be one?"[/color] She giggled, and made a hand sign to make a pit stop at a secluded point, like an alley. [Color=skyblue]"Haha, isnt that ironic, cause thats why im heading over there!"[/color] Scout chuckled as she slowed down to go behind Lily's motorcycle. [Color=skyblue]"But I digress, if ya wanna really know if I am a magical girl, then lead the way."[/color] [color=fff200]"Ok, but don't blame me for going too fast!"[/color] Lily shouted, and laughed as she accelerated. It didn't take long for them to reach the vicinity of the train station, where one magical girl was already engaging the bloodicorns; unicorns with flayed skins, crimson red with sharp horns and meaner attitudes. Lily made her motorcycle jump, and then leapt off it to land on a wall, running up it to a nearby rooftop; if she could follow her there in a fast time, she would know she meant business. "[color=aba000]Gah! Dammit woman, can you drive like a normal person!?[/color]" Alexander yelled "[color=aba000]try to keep your passengers in mind before pulling stunts like that! I could have just made a ramp up their with my magic![/color]" [Color=skyblue]"HA! Wouldnt count on it!"[/color] Scout could already tell she was gonna like the energetic magical girl, as she herself quickly floored the gas pump to catch up with the duo. [Color=skyblue]"Theresa, can you fly ahead to the train station? Ill catch up!"[/color] She asked the familiar flying beside her. She could tell that the owl nodded as they flew away and ahead of the witch. Once she arrived at the station, Scout mimicked Lily and slowed down beside the second motorcycle. [Color=skyblue]"Yo."[/color] She said, lightly waving till her atention was turned to the monsters. [Color=skyblue]"Would you look at that..edgy unicorns.."[/color] Lily waved and bounced in place, smiling widely. [color=fff200]"Wow, aren't you a slowpoke! Just kidding, you're actually quite good!"[/color] She looked towards where th girl pointed, and saw the monsters. [color=fff200]"Geez, those are gonna leave a big mess behind. Looks like it's up to us to clean up!"[/color] She flexed her skinny noodle arm, and placed her other arm over it. [color=fff200]"But before that, I'd like to introduce myself! Name's Lily Lightning! And that boy over there is Alex! We fight together."[/color] As if on cue, Theresa returned to Scout and landed on the girl's head. [Color=skyblue]"Neat. Call me Scout! The owl resting on my head is my familiar, Theresa."[/color] She said, with her familiar taking a bow. "[color=aba000]It's actually Alexander[/color]" Alexander corrected "[color=aba000]but Lily insists on just calling me Alex, and it'd be too much trouble to get her to stop, so I put up with it.[/color]" Quickly placing a forcefield on Scout (and Theresa too, for good measure) he put a bit of distence between him and the girl. Once he was far enough away, he made a five layer barrior around himself and summoned two clones. Since he had already put up forcefields on himself and Lily (because he knew how Lily drove), he was able to skip that step, and pump magic into his two clones so that they could boost Lily. [color=fff200]"What's wrong with Alex, Alex?!"[/color] Lily asked, a bit ditzy. She pouted when the magical boy ran off. [color=fff200]"Geez, he always does this! Oh well, I'll bop him for it later."[/color] She turned towards the other magical girl with a flick of her heel. [color=fff200]"Anyway, I'm glad you're here to help, Scout! Haven't seen you here before, so you must be from outside Penrose. Did all the drama here draw you in?"[/color] She summoned her bow in a flashy manner; catching a small bolt of lightning that struck from the blue sky, and made a pose with it. [color=fff200]"My Little Pony, you ain't a cutie!"[/color] She joked, and began shooting at them. [Color=skyblue]"In a way, yeah."[/color] Scout replied, walking to the edge of the rooftop in a crouching position. [Color=skyblue]"Things were settled back at North Dakoda, so I didnt have alot to do when it envolved monsters and such."[/color] She aimed at one of the bloodicorns and shot at it's head. [Color=skyblue]"Then one day, my patron, Maura Natalie, got info about a rogue magical girl and the abundance of monsters here. So I took a quick plane ride to a nearby town and rode the rest of the way here."[/color] Scout sighed as she reloaded her rifle. [Color=skyblue]"And she wasnt kidding. Five minutes here and I already got into a fight with..I dont know, six other magical girls and a demon gorilla?"[/color] She said, continuing to shoot at the monsters. "[color=aba000]Yep, sounds like Penrose alright.[/color]" Alexander snorted as his clones began boosting Lily "[color=aba000]I've never been magicly active anywhere else but here, but I've heard a lot of people talk about how things get crazy in Penrose. Hell, I'm not sure how magic is still secret anymore. Not to long ago, there was a fight on the roof of a hospital! A fucking hospital. At this point, it stops being impressive that people can cover this shit up, and gets into scary territory.[/color]" [Color=skyblue]"Wow, sounds risky."[/color] Scout said, looking over at Alex with concern. [Color=skyblue]"Please tell me it was an abandoned hopsital, more or less closed."[/color] "[color=aba000]It didn't [i]look[/i] abandoned. That whole fight was a mess; a crazy bitch tried to punch a hole in my chest, and some Beacon zelot tried to kill Lily, just because her berserk form gives her some monster looking traits[/color]" Alexander grumbled "[color=aba000]on second thought; maybe saying she was trying to [i]kill[/i] her is a bit much. She did, however, seem willing to let her die.[/color]" [color=fff200]"Yeah, it was terrible of them to do that!"[/color]Lily replied as she launched another barrage of arrows into the herd of bloodmares. [color=fff200]"The Beacon are bullies who pick on anyone who's not in their clique. They even hunt girls with fluffy ears! Can you believe that! Sorry, I'm still angry about that. But yeah, lots of crazy girls here. Try to watch your back here; they might come after you too."[/color] [Color=skyblue]"Noted. My patron doesnt trust Beacon anyways."[/color] Scout responded, activating her focused assault ability to shoot one of the bloodmares dead. [Color=skyblue]"Yes! Got one!"[/color] She exclaimed with a quick fist-pump. "[color=aba000]By the way; where did these things come from? Normally, monsters just seem to be wandering around aimlessly, attacking whatever they find. This however, seems far more organised. Not only is the train station a pretty important place, but they came with a shockingly large force.[/color]" Alexander shook his head "[color=aba000]This can't just be another random monster attack. Somebody planed this. But why?[/color]" [color=fff200]"It's just like at the hospital, so it must mean-AAAHH!"[/color] Lily ducked down as a red streak quickly swept past her. She looked up, and her eyes widened; it was a bloodmare, flying on bat wings. Soon, it was joined by others of its ilk, forming a murder of them. [color=fff200]"Hey, that's cheating!"[/color] She cried out, and and transformed her weapon into a staff. She then began casting magic, hurling lightning bolts at the evil equines. [Color=skyblue]"Wait what- OH SWEET NIGHTINGALE THEY'RE AIRBORNE!!"[/color] Scout yelled as she stepped back and started firing at the winged bloodmares, her tree like tentacles growing out of her back. [Color=skyblue]"Crap, I think killing one provoked the rest, my mistake!"[/color] "[color=aba000]Wonderful[/color]" Alexander snarked "[color=aba000]now there's [i]flying[/i] murder horses! I really wish my powers were more attack oriented. I [i]really[/i] want to punch one of those things in the face. But no, all I can do is stay safe inside my bubble, and make sure that everyone's shielded while strengthening Lily. Hey, Lily! You need to punch one of those things in the face for me![/color]" [hr] [i]Meanwhile, a young girl with a white umbrella was watching over the chaotic scene at the train station. [color=FF4F76]"Peculiar..."[/color] She said to herself. A spirit beside her asked what she meant. [color=FF4F76]"The monsters...They're controlled..."[/color] She told the spirit. [color=FF4F76]"This was planned from the begining..but what for...?"[/color] She asked before lightly sighing. [color=FF4F76]"Guess we'll have to see what happens..."[/color] She then sat down at the edge of the rooftop she perched onto, her legs dangling over the far down street.[/i]
