Feel the city breakin' and everybody shakin'

[thepull_mods]

Who: OPEN + Some Mutation Monstrosities that have no business in the mall.
When: Saturday, June 23rd. 9pm onwards.
Where: Club Twins & Crest Theatre in the Underground Mall
Summary: Two more nightspots are hit by average clubgoers that transform into mutation. This time, their targets are NOT AGI-owned.
Warnings: Disco. Possible inappropriate behavior on the dance floor. Circulating club drugs. Monsters. Violence.


At approximately 9:27, just after a secure siren lockdown procedure and right as the city's underground nightlife is heating up, there will be two major mall incidents:

One is at Twins Night Club, which is hosting a 70's Retro Night of Beegees-go-Modern-Techno. Adults of all ages (and a few kids with sharp fake IDs) will be on the dance floor by nine, and the club is packed and busy tonight.

It'll happen right before your eyes: Five clubgoers, seemingly random, average people, will suddenly twitch and writhe as if going into seizures. Their bodies will transform into something ashen skinned and grotesque, monstrous, and they will go into an attacking frenzy. Four are Common Mutation (their powers are up to you), and one is a Woman of Terror (last entry on the humanoid monster page).

By 10 pm, the club will be evacuated and searched by mall security, eye witnesses may be interviewed by press and police.

(If you'd like your character's soundbyte on the event to appear in Sunday's newsfeed, pop 'em here)

The club will be given an all clear, re-opening at 11pm, and the party will continue safely on into the night, with the crowd significantly thinned out as some anxious clubgoers take their partying to other areas of the mall.



....Or maybe you were in the mood for a 'romantic date night' to catch the spine tingling thrills (or laughs at the cheesy-lame effects) of a double feature 50's monster flick down at the Crest Theatre. But wait a minute. It's rival the Millenium Theatre is the one shows films with 4-D technology! So...that's that nasty breath that doesn't reek like stale popcorn? And that slimy, prehensile tongue on your neck is not your boyfriend coming back from the bathroom for a little surprise action.

There are two mutation lurking the half-filled old movie theater with chameleon-skinned blending abilities and a 9-inch slimy tongue that likes a good long, languid taste of its prey. In fact, they will just as soon take a sneaky sampling from the necks or ears of just about everyone in the theater before deciding who it wants to eat. Licked skin will itch with a mild rash for the next 24 hours. Have fun with that kids, and hold onto your popcorn!

[Swiftly, Genesis follows suit. He might not be as good as Angeal is at hand-to-hand combat, but he's more than capable of taking down darkness monsters himself with his equal SOLDIER strength. Looking around, he notices that they're not the typical Darkness creature. They were humanoid-- and much more powerful.

And in their midst was what seemed to be a feminine figure. At the sight of her, Genesis felt a tremor of dread down his spine. He was more than certain that this one was bound to be the most dangerous among them.]

[not_the_dreck]

[Asch wasn't bad at hand to hand, but against darkness monster? Yeah, he'd be screwed. But just because he didn't have a weapon didn't mean that he was completely helpless. He pulled together Fifth Fonons, taking on a casting pose.]

Bring all to ash and ruin... Explosion!

[A ball of fire suddenly fell from the ceiling, dropping on some of the monsters. At least he could still cast spells, not that he particularly cared for it. Especially when there were monsters coming for him now that he made himself a target.]

Cover me!

[mentors]

[Even Angeal's strength might meet it's match in the Darkness monsters, but at the same time he can't just sit back and do nothing. There's a snarl from the monster as he puts himself between it and a clubgoer, ready to protect as nessesary, but he does get help in the form of intervention- the fireball falling on the Darkness monsters in front of him. Angeal steps back, arm out to push the people behind him away (those who hadn't had sense to run, yet.) before looking over his shoulder, hearing Asch's voice.

This wasn't good.]

Genesis, draw them away! [In the meantime, he knows what he has to do. A monster launches itself at him while the nearest one, female-ish in form, remains oddly in place, swaying as if with to the music. Angeal turns his attention from it to meet the other one, accepting claws and fangs gaining traction into his arm as he shoves his hand into the monsters face, sending power though it.

It hurts. Immediately, he can feel it- the shift of feathers deep underneath skin, the ripple of pain he knows is from using what he has. But there was no choice, and they needed allies.]

[Meanwhile in the midst of the explosion, Genesis moves to cast his own spell to draw away the monsters from Asch. Quickly, he summons out quick bursts of fire to home in on them and hurt them, drawing their attention to him.]

Come on now!

[There's nothing around he could pick up for a weapon, so he resorts to his bare fists, dealing with the monsters around him with punches and kicks. Not as good as Angeal, but still effective. Every once in a while, though, his eyes catch sight of the feminine monster in the midst of all the action, still not attacking.

Was it just him, or did he just see a flash of silver and a well-built body so reminiscent of one of their housemates?]

[not_the_dreck]

[Asch hated being relegated to mage. He was a fighter that learned some fonic artes so he could be more effective with his attacks on the battlefield; straight up magic was just not his style. Still, you gotta do what you gotta do, and in another moment, a blade of thunder comes crashing down on some enemies, making them jerk and writhe from the electric discharge, before Asch noticed something silvery in the corner of his vision.]

[Oh hell, Angeal.]

[mentors]

[Sorry Asch, but they had to do what they had to. Extracting his arm from the claws of the monster, there is only one left when he looks around, Genesis' and Asch's work doing quick to get rid of the monsters.

At least, he thought there had been only one- Where it had been in it's place is a friend of his, someone he know couldn't be standing there because he was right behind him as well.

Some sort of trick, but one easily felled because Angeal is never far from those he cares about.]

Go. [He mummers to the monster now wearing his face, and it bounds after the figure to tear it into pieces, the last monster left standing.]

[recitings]

[In the midst of all the action, Genesis is taken aback by how suddenly one of the monsters turned against the lone figure in the room who looked too much like Sephiroth to him. But that couldn't be the case. If it was truly him, then he would have made quick work of the monster after him.

Instead, the monster tore into him. And as he did, Genesis noticed how it wore Angeal's face.

Angeal was using his ability.]
