[center][color=ff9815][b][h1]Nakano Nagi[/h1][/b][/color] [color=ff9815]Mentions: Munehisa[@Solace][/color][/center] That tore it. Nagi howled in fury, dashing forward to slam a brass-knuckled fist straight into the giant bee in lieu of being able to punch Okamoto herself. The first blow just glanced off. So did the second. But the third…Nagi’s third punch actually left somewhat of a mark on it. She glared up at Okamoto, her eyes bloodshot. [color=ff9815][b]“If I go to the slammer, it’ll be after I’ve buried you six feet under, you worthless fucking whore!”[/b][/color] She bellowed. [color=ff9815][b]“You think you can just do whatever the fuck you want, and everyone’s just gonna sit there and take it?! Go on, then! Try! I’ll bring you down with me if it’s the last thing I goddamn do!”[/b][/color] [center][color=ff9815][b][i]Has your bloodlust finally awakened?[/i][/b][/color][/center] Nagi doubled over, her entire body feeling as if it were set aflame. She started to scream again, a hand reaching up to her mouth. [center][color=ff9815][b][i]You, who have the strength to ensure that the worthless cannot enact their will upon you as they please… Have you finished hiding behind the skirts of reason and sanity? Will you continue to hold yourself back?[/i][/b][/color][/center] Nagi fell to one knee, heaving as she slammed a fist in the ground. The pain was still ever-present through her entire self, but the sensation of knuckles crashing against tile grounded her. The voice was right. No more of this shit. Not when she could still do something about it. Nagi forced herself back up to her feet, a [url=https://i.imgur.com/dyoSCg3.png]black-and-red spiked half-gas mask[/url] forming from her nose downward, leaving her baleful glare fully visible. [color=ff9815][b]“Per…so…na…”[/b][/color] [center][color=ff9815][b][i]Excellent, most excellent! Bring judgment down upon those who would bind us in chains! Let our pact be sealed! I am thou…thou art I… Rise up in madness and fury![/i][/b][/color][/center] Nagi reached up to the top half of her mask and violently ripped it downward, blood dripping from both sides of her mouth. Azure lightning crashed down upon her, and the pain stopped. When the flash cleared, she emerged. Gone were her blazer and skirt, to be replaced with [url=https://i.imgur.com/x2uq0Z9.png]a black waistcoat over a red dress shirt and black tie with dress slacks equally as dark.[/url] [url=https://i.imgur.com/aqxdIKo.png]A long white jacket hung over her shoulders like a cape, its collar decorated with fur trim.[/url] Brown snakeskin shoes clacked against the floor as Nagi stepped forward, her same brass knuckles still wrapped around her fists. [url=https://i.imgur.com/MwbkNhw.jpg]Floating behind her was a female figure, clad head-to-toe in gleaming armor. In her hands were a massive sword and an equally large shield,[/url] and an aura of palpable menace surrounded the specter in sharp contrast with its knightly appearance. [color=ff9815][b]“Alright, Okamoto.”[/b][/color] Nagi snarled as she slammed her left fist into her right palm. [color=ff9815][b]"Here’s what’s gonna happen: I’m going to kill your eyesore of a pet. Then I’m gonna drag you down here and make you hurt. We clear? Then let’s dance, bitch!”[/b][/color] A bloodthirsty grin crossed her face. [color=ff9815][b]“Seethe, Bellona!”[/b][/color] She dashed forward, and Bellona charged with her. The armored figure strode forward, and a single cleave of her sword severed the claw holding Munehisa, causing him to fall to the floor just in time for Nagi to catch him. She gently set him down as Bellona brought lightning crashing down on the giant wasp, causing it to screech in agony. [color=ff9815][b]“Where’s your pleasure now, dickhead?”[/b][/color] Nagi mocked the creature as she stepped forward. Bellona floated backwards, allowing her summoner to leap up and latch onto the wasp’s head, starting to pummel its head in with her right fist. [color=ff9815][b]“How’s it feel to have a fight when the other guy’s not completely gassed out, huh?”[/b][/color] Nagi bellowed in its face. The wasp’s remaining claw shot up to try to smack her off, but Nagi kicked off of its head and into the air, her brass knuckles fading away as an AK-47 materialized in her hands. She raised the rifle in midair, stared down the sights, and opened fire even as she kept falling to the ground. DAKKADAKKADAKKADAKKA Nagi landed on the ground on one knee, braced in a shooting position as she finished emptying the rest of the assault rifle’s magazine into the beast. As the wasp lay reeling, she stood back up, brandishing her rifle as she stalked forward. The black-haired girl loomed over the fallen insect, raising her gun before bringing it down, mercilessly beating it to death by bludgeoning it with the stock repeatedly. [color=ff9815][b]“One down,”[/b][/color] She hissed, adrenaline coursing through her veins as she checked the pockets in her waistcoat and jacket cape, eventually finding a fresh magazine. [color=ff9815][b]“One to go.”[/b][/color] Nagi quickly reloaded and whirled around, acquiring Okamoto in her sights as lightning crackled around Bellona. Both summoner and Persona opened fire, intent on, at the very least, knocking the woman from her perch. Okamoto screeched in disbelief and fury as the bee-like creature’s form disintegrated into a shadowy mist. Not only had the boy found out he had these strange supernatural powers, but the girl did, too?! In the middle of her shock, she saw Nagi aim her weapon at her. Grunting, Okamoto leaned against the back of her mount, which spurred it to fly out of the way of the bullets. “You’ll pay for this!” she howled. [b]“I swear to God, you’ll [i]rue[/i] this day! [i]Get them out, you useless maggots!! GET THEM OUT!![/i]”[/b] At her command, a storm of wingbeats sounded from further down the hallway. At least a half dozen more of the cryptids poured out of the corridor within seconds, their sights set on the two individuals that had caused so much chaos in their abode. In the midst of the flurry of wings and thrashing limbs, Okamoto had chosen to turn tail and head back down the corridor and left the angry soldiers to deal with the remnants of her mess. [color=ff9815][b]“What the-get back here, bitch!”[/b][/color] Nagi snarled, not bothering to waste any more ammunition against Okamoto as she flew out of her range. [color=ff9815][b]“Motherfucker!”[/b][/color] She shifted her aim towards the approaching bees, directing Bellona to electrocute as many as she could while Nagi moved to help her friend up. [color=ff9815][b]“Mune! Mune?”[/b][/color] Nagi shook him, but to no avail. Damn it, it looked like he wasn’t getting back up anytime soon. [color=ff9815][b]“Ah, crap…”[/b][/color] She groaned, feeling the drain of her Persona’s continued lightning attacks. As much as Nagi wanted to continue the fight, they couldn’t stay. Not like this. Coming to a decision, Nagi hefted her AK up with one hand while starting to drag Mune away with her other hand, allowing Bellona to fade away as her gas mask reappeared on her face. She fired wildly at what bees remained, hurriedly dragging Mune through the exit.
