ॐ Ninth Petal

[kuro_hasu]

[An ear-splitting screech that could bring the strongest to their knees, resounds through your gollem. It stops before the speakers within its mechanism are damaged beyond repair. By the time you compose yourself your gollem is broadcasting.

[His breathing is labored but his hold on Mugen is unwavering. An intake of breath is all Kanda does when he realizes that somehow communications were working. Yet, he doesn't turn his attention to the feed, trusting his gollem would be recording. He is mostly absorbed in the figure staring back at him with cold eyes much unlike Allen's.]

Komui.

[Should he say it? But first thing's first.]

We're trapped somehow and we found an accommodator.

[They needed help.]

[kuro_hasu]

Tell them to hurry up! There's women and children trapped in here, too.

[Kanda could not ensure the safety of the side-liners. He trusted Roland to be competent enough to protect them since he insisted he would stay with them. However, that's really something he shouldn't be worried about.

The samurai had enough of this fiasco.

There was only one way to fix it...]

[He's incredibly worn out. The young knight has been using a lot of magic to even keep up with the akuma, doing his damned best to protect the boy.

He dared to cast Restore on himself, after the strange man...absorbs the akuma and gotten over his surprise. The gradual healing spell gives him trivial relief, but it's not fast or stronge enough for his bigger injuries.]

Allen...?

[Roland stare with wide eyes, still aware that the boy need protections and his current state to join in.]

1/2 (14th) [Action]

[tothelastbreath]

[Cold eyes meet Kanda's in an even glare, unruffled by the blade so close to his throat and showing nothing but mild annoyance at the sudden interference. His face remains impassive, but there's a definite hint of challenge in the way his posture is just so relaxed despite circumstances, every bit the observer as though he isn't the one pinned and on display.

Your move, Exorcist.]

2/2 (Allen) [Action]

[tothelastbreath]

[Nothing reaches him now, not Roland's quiet question, not the Level Four right in his face, nor the sharp whistling of Mugen's edge when it thuds into the concrete by his ear. The world has narrowed down to the murky gray of a deep, soul-searing pain, and the resounding question of why?

He's struggling regardless, this feels too much like sinking and he refuses to go down without a fight. It's hard to find a foothold when he can't remember what he's supposed to be fighting for, though. He was... in the middle of something important. There are things to do, promises to keep. This notion feels awfully frail against the suffocating pain, but it's all he has of him now, so he clutches at it and tries to infuse it with more of himself, because then it might be easier to remember who he is.]

1/2 [Action]

[kuro_hasu]

[Kanda does not yield to the being in front of him. He is, however, not ignorant nor stupid. There is no doubt in his mind that this entity could tear him apart physically and, even worse, mentally if he so wished- if Kanda were to provoke enough. But, fucking hell, he still wore the idiot beansprout's face and at the same time it was not him at all.
Kanda's hold on Mugen tightened enough to make his knuckles white and the hilt protest. The only sound that broke the silence between them was the wet gasping and gurgling from the Level 4 that remained pinned by both Crown Clown and Mugen. It's blood already dripping down Mugen's hilt and creating pools at their feet.

Kanda wouldn't show weakness or break eye contact. His bravery and defiance easily mingled with impudence and contempt.

He had made his mind long ago- let Allen know it, too. When the time came, he would see to it himself that he was stopped. No matter the cost.]

A-- ALLEN!!!?!

[inyourf_ace]

KANDA WHAT THE FUCK DID YOU DO!??!

[Video]

[kuro_hasu]

[He really can't glare at you now. More pressing matters than retorting to a sea man. His tone is raspy and deep and it held no room for humour.]

What does it fucking look like?

[Video]

[inyourf_ace]

Like you just skewered him, that's what!

[Pause.] The fuck was that thing? It's not like the akuma you faced with us.

[mugiwaralufy]

[Luffy is still somewhat new to the WTF that is Akuma and how they are killed... not to mention the whole Allen turning slightly Noah.]

... whoooa... what happened?

[video]

[kuro_hasu]

Shit hit the fan, that's what happened.

[VIDEO]

[ragebeatfan]

[Ryuuichi is all adult, and he looks pale as hell.] A...ku...ma...?

[VIDEO]

[kuro_hasu]

[Glad the communications were up and going again. However Kanda hoped they were connected to someone more versed in their line of work.]

Don't tell me this is your first time seeing one. [Irritated. He really didn't have the time nor the mind to me explaining.]

[VIDEO]

[ragebeatfan]

And what if it was...? Is that my fault...?

[VIDEO]

[kuro_hasu]

[How long has this person been here? If he hasn't seen an akuma at all then this means he's not even chosen for combat.]

You gotta be kidding me.

[It would help if the newcomers were a bit more useful.]
