Kasumi

Shiina had it, sorta. Kasumi still needed to decipher that last little secret of her own. Into her inventory and producing another piece of fruit for it, of a drastically smaller size. Ouroboros was little, about the size of a noodle. He couldn't quite wrap his gullet around something so large. A raise sees it bear tiny fangs and pop them into the fruit. A tiny sucking noise sees it start to shrivel up. In its own creepy way, it was cute. Shiina was eyeing them both. "Man your's is weird. I like it." Shiina exhumes rather abruptly. hers was still so strapped to real food that it wasn't doing a whole lot. "All animals are weird." Kasumi responds to the child earnestly with a smile, it was the truth. There had been moments she'd find dogs that acted like cats. Cats that acted like parrots. They had their own personalities, and the Aincrad variants were no different.

"Just a lot of practice, we used to have animals back home." Kasumi remarks to little Shiina, offering the animal another strawberry given she had loads of them. They were her favorite. Rather healthy with a sweet but bitter tang. "No problem, here you try." Kasumi hands it to Shiina and ushers her to try and feed it to Sprinkles. The only way she'd get its full undivided attention is a soft voice and a few honest gestures. That was the trick that Shiina was picking up on, and the blossom had no qualms teaching Shiina how it worked. That is what she excelled at as well, showing people things that they'd never quite try otherwise. Life was about experiences and working toward understanding every living thing around you. That is why her and Setsuna didn't quite see eye to eye, given the girl was so focused on her tasks that she forgot to see the rest of it.

Shiina reaffirms the things name, and Kasumi produces another section of fruit for the thing as a reward for finally listening to Shiina. It looked like a tiny devil, rather aggressive in how it acted. It kind of suited Shiina completely, in its fuzzed and off kilter way of acting. As if it was wet and someone hit it with a towel rather rigorously, making all of its hair stand on end. It claims the fruit from her fingers and crams it into a row of teeth, making crunches and sloshes with little bits of it falling out. "Well it look like he understood you for a moment there, Shiina." Kasumi speaks to Shiina and is repaid with a nod from the girl. It seems she was pleased that it was finally responding to her, proving that a bit of honey works better then a whole bunch of vinegar. That is what Kasumi lived by.

There was a strange softness in Setsuna's tone, but it seemed almost devoid of any real emotion. A sudden feeling of her own, the need. She takes a step forward and wraps her arms around Setsuna. She can feel the girls body jerk and lock up. She was so damn cold, like everywhere. How she was like this was beyond Kasumi, but in this little shared moment she hardly cared. Keeping that embrace solid and then peeling her free, Kasumi searches for the girls eyes. "Thank you for all your help, I don't think I could do this without you." she admits a bit embarrassed by the sudden gesture toward the typically dangerous creature in the mist that just allowed it to transpire. Slinking out of the girls clutches, Setsuna had had her fill. It appeared as though she was equally as embarrassed by the exchange. What came was an awkward atmosphere where neither knew how to respond.

She listens intently to what Setsuna had to say, it stung and in a way Kasumi knew she was right. A soft apology bleeds out of her lips. "I'm sorry." she responds with a weakness as she bows her head slightly toward Setsuna to show it true. A soft but cold hand on the girls shoulder almost burned her skin. Setsuna was still so damn ice cold, despite everything her temperature always mirrored that of floor 4. Kasumi had only been their a few times, but even still she recognized it. "I will learn, I promise." came back her words in response as her attentions shift up to the slightly shorter girl that was lording over her. In a way Setsuna was her superior here, where she was the superior one when it came to combat. They were both messed up and were stronger as a unit. In a way they both knew that.

A few moments of waiting sees the NPC smith return, handing her a bundle of the armor she had asked for. A fold at her stomach as he gestures it out to her. "Thank you." Kasumi responds in a polite bow, as Setsuna at her side scoffs at the show of appreciation. Her attentions shift to Setsuna as the shopkeeper begins to trail away, holding a conversation with his wife. "I am trying Setsuna, I really am." The blossom spoke to her mirrored self, knowing full well that their methods were so damn similar, and yet their personalities were not. It was almost a plead to the girl, trying her damned to convince her that it was true on the tone. It was the hardest thing she'd ever had done up until now, trying to convince herself that killing something was the right thing to do wasn't easy. She knew that Setsuna wouldn't understand, that a vow was taken.

A glance toward Setsuna, shows upon her face a twist of emotions as she was trying her best to put it behind her. To convince herself that it was the correct thing to do, despite any reluctance to perform what must be done. A soft response to the silver haired girl who was doing her best to approve her actions. "I understand." Kasumi chokes out toward the girl, her voice weak as she begins to head back toward the floors center. She had to turn in the drop she had obtained from the elf to the NPC who beckoned for it to be obtained. Setsuna was ripe on her tail throughout. Dropping the hide on the counter, and confirming with the NPC that she indeed wanted a set of light armor as her reward. An uncomfortable silence between the two players as he set to work, easily minutes blur by in that muddied air. 

A rapid tear in from out of the black that surrounds them, in a way that would remind quite a few of them of Setsuna. A solid slide of her hand forward like a dagger sees her bury it up to her elbow within the things stomach. It recoils long enough for her to rip it clean and slam her palm of the left through the bridge of its nose. A stumble, the girl appears behind it with a parade of petals with a twirl. A slam with the flat of her foot causes its head to jerk, its HP to plummet. It was grim, as sparks flow from the pierced crater in its sternum. "Sam" Kasumi barks sliding on her foot and spring boarding off of the back of its neck, forcing it forward against its stature. Right toward the raven haired girl to lay into it, as it clutched at the damage she had wrought in a matter of seconds. She vanishes while airborne and appears next to Eruda, beginning to slide her heels in tandem with her arms. Raising her left hand sets her finger tips on fire, and with it a dark purple hue like kindling in her eye. Mugen Tenshin, was in effect.

A shotgun forward to attempt at the beast sees it pivot and take a swipe at her instead of Eruda, as if it was waiting for a misstep. This forces Kasumi back, a blink in dark purple shows her reappear further away. A shake of her head as she begins to move, kicking up a trail of dust as skill stasis draws away from her bar. "It's no use, I can't get close." she responds to the group, hoping that another can make due on the distraction. She had to wait out that art cooldown before she'd be able to fire again, dumping more and more of her available energy into her hands and feet as she stood by. Watching on as Simmone usher closer to the creature, the party closing in around it and blocking its ability to escape. The thing was on its last legs, and hopefully someone would finish it off before it would flee.

Sharpness Fades

That sudden shift from Shiina catches her off-guard, and the opportunity upon which she had to strike at Ugzeke was lost in that distraction. The swelling tremor beneath her feet. The almost horrific sound that played with the chorus of an angel that was Shiina. It was almost a strange mixture of two different compositions, yet oddly in tune. A forced leap away as the boss takes a shot at her and forces her to retreat. Her arms and legs swell with violet, the faint lines of light from her to Shiina's fingertips were notable. When the songstress had discovered such a force was beyond her, an ode to the fact that Shiina of all people was training secretly behind the scenes. That was both strange and unwavering in its own right, just how powerful had Shiina become in her misleading outward personality? A twist of her frame sees her vanish, Sam would have to make due without her for now.

A huge arc from Freya cutting deep right as the beast is drug ashore by the lot of them, Kasumi offers a momentary blink of pink. Appearing with a different shade of sword art, a black apparel clad to her frame. The girl rockets forward and lands a single airborne blade of her heel, connecting and falling. Then stemmed to bone crunching open palms and you can hear the fish get winded from the blows. It flails a bit and the tremors force the girl to spring back in two quick hops. There was a finesse to her cartwheeling and movements, as if gravity held no effect on her. "Not quite over." Kasumi responds to the group with her hands triggering in that same violet energy, before disappearing in a blink to the same hue. A small parading set of light purple petals, that drift gracefully from where she ceased to exist.

Sharpness Duration [1/2]

A lumbering giant eyeing Shiina as it approaches, raising a hammer like branch above its head before its cold clocked out of the blue by a woman in black armor and a flash of deep purplish blue energy. That violet flares as the beast stumbles, an fully extended heel still held aloft out in front of her with a glare to match it as that purple fades. A soft exhale brings it with a tap against her back side, sliding back down behind her with a slide. "I've got you Shiina." Kasumi eludes with a tinge of change on her tone, a high pitch smattering of sound and a flare of that same purple causing her hands to become engulfed like lanterns. Slinking her feet apart and drawing her hands above her head, they sweep in wide circles before finding a place near her face and waist. Palms open and out, she was waiting for it to make the next move.

As soon as Eruda gestures toward the brush, Kasumi walks out with it wiggling in her hand. "I got it, it kind of ran into my lap." She chuckles with a sudden jerk making it stop struggling. It was a mercy the sudden jab she paid the thing, instead of leaving it to suffer as they traveled back. Passing the red lizard to Simmone as she reaches a hand out to claim it from the girl. It wasn't too awful difficult so far, but the true question would be in the tasks to come. This quest had quite a number of segments that they would have to undertake before they were finished. Kasumi was the first to begin the trip back down. She wanted to get into position before they would start fishing. If they could get it out of the waves then she'd lay into it with everything she had.

ID# 187393 results: Battle: 10 (GET OVER HERE), Craft: 8, Success! Red Salamander Caught!

The third into the fray, last to arrive from a clatter of her heels to the stone beneath their very feet. A raise of her still bare hand in a wave, while the three of them fiddled with the hound upon the floor. Raserei had certainly been growing, Kasumi could hardly compare the two now. A twist of her wrists in a wind as she applied her weapons to her hands, in preparation for whatever it was they may face. There was only one thing of true note on this floor: the ogre known as Ugzeke from what she read. The thing was prone to anger, and although did quite a bit of damage it was also a bit of a stupid one. There was opportunity in those moments of confusion, and Kasumi would be sure to make do on such an issue with haste. There was no longer any room for hesitation from any of them, and little by little Kasumi was curing herself of the ability.

Within moments, Kasumi found herself in the center of Coral. Where this quest was to begin, finding Eruda waiting patiently for everyone to arrive. "Hello Eruda." Kasumi beckons to her dear long time friend with a smile, waiting for an invite from her. "I came to assist you." The girl offers, looking down toward the wolf and gesturing her inventory open with a slide. Producing two long ribbons of white material and beginning to encase her open and splayed hands with them in rotating circles. "Who else is coming?" She asks of the tank, unsure of the accomplices to this little journey were to be. The motive on quest still remained a mystery as well, and more and more Kasumi was starting to sound like an agent of O&I. A sharp incline toward information and being prepared, they were the ears of the guild so it was always standard for them to try and hear as much as possible.

A slide of her feet back to neutral, to the roar of a crowd pleased with the kill. Retracting an outstretched hand to her side. "They are, but its not permanent." Kasumi responds as the skill triggered fades, restoring the white and red of her clothes. "I've been practicing with Setsuna a bit, and its made me aware to a few more things that I had yet to use." She pays Sam a smile and makes a move for the horn that dropped, picking the remaining piece off the floor as the creature explodes into data. "It will only be a matter of time before you find your special something, I am sure of it." Kasumi turns and deposits the horn away to deliver away to the guild vault, it wasn't of much use to the group but it may just prove useful in the future to someone else. That was reason enough alone to send it in.

Like a bullet, a trail in violet akin to that of Simmone's appears in at a blinding speed. A slammed heel into the side of the creatures carcass. "For the wrongs you have done, I must correct that course. Balance in all things." She extrudes as the creature stumbles, winding her arms in a sweeping circle in front of her frame. Her feet moves with them, like a geisha performing a dance with a fan. It burns trails behind the movement, that power still trapped within the ends of her appendages. A single defining blow that echoes outward to the rest of the chamber in its magnitude. Her right hand punches clean through like a chisel through stone, clean through and out the other side of Piasuhon. "A mercy, rest easy and find peace." A solid tug frees her arm, as the rhino falls to its side as the last of its remaining HP empties out completely.

In a cross shaped pattern came both girls in that opening, tearing across the creatures form with two powerful impacts that play out in unison. The creatures HP bar plummets in that instance, As Kasumi looks squarely at Sam with a smile in her new attire. The girl had found what she sought it seemed, and she recognized that book she had been using. It was her cousins, or at least a copy of it. A twist of her head toward Setsuna who was just sheathing her sword. They both nod and their attentions shift back to the rhino who was damn near in a grave already, a lunge toward each other sees them blink out of existence once again. The strength of their attacked twinned in such a way was truly gruesome, the creature couldn't even stand yet. Left where she had disappeared from was a small crystal that began to play a song.

A glance to Setsuna paying the girl a nod, a flicker of pink as her skin took to a slight translucent glow. Her armor changes shade into a blackened and gold alter of the palette. The color begins to shift from pink to a darker violet. A leap left as Setsuna lunges right, both girls vanish in an instant on the same rhythm. A parade of small lilac colored petals within that mist of Setsuna's left behind. An oath to kill ripe in her head, there would be no room for hesitation. Concealed on the field were both girls, the yin & yang. Prepared for once Piaushaon would appear, eager to put it down quickly and stop it from dealing any damage to the whole of the group. Protection through aggression, a method that Setsuna excelled in and Kasumi was just getting a taste of as of currently. Just a little more, dear Kasumi.

Momentarily after Setsuna's arrival beckons Kasumi's. The girl had just finished up a couple of rings that needed produced, adding them to the vault once she received the message from Sam. Kasumi could not argue with the silver haired girl here, this quest from what she had read was quite the difficult one to undertake. There wasn't any room for error. Peeling out her hand wraps and beginning to slide them around her wrists in slow and honest pulls. They are tugged tightly and held against her skin, a ribbon in a bundle around her knuckles. Upon that very same skin were the words written pressed in, on the back and concealed on that slice of fabric. The decree to which she had undertaken since changed, the Mugen Tenshin style to which would see her through this endeavor. This was going to be a bloodbath if she hesitated even in the slightest.

Concentration Refreshed!

A harsh tug on his blade as Kasumi releases it, another lunge sees her displaced in a flash of pink light. Her heart sinks as he charges her again, taking another swipe of his steel toward her peach colored hide. "Stop!" Kasumi yelps toward the broker "Just take it." Trying her best to defuse the situation, to get him to end this assault. An attempt at a stab sees the girl disappear and end up behind him, grappling him around the collar. "Don't make me." The choked breathing coming from him, as his weapon still swung off to each side as he bellows "I'll kill you!". Clawing at her arms, trying to break her grasp. "I'm sorry." Kasumi couldn't help but feel the tears starting to flow as her face felt hot. A sudden jerk sees them both collapse, a crunch with it. It was over, but not in a way she wished it to end.

Left within the alley that the quest had started, was a girl that had just taken a life with the blood still on her hands. A burning of regret in her breast, matched by the chill of the stone and a small crystal still pulsing with energy. "I'm sorry." choked out with a river of tears. This puppy was actually poisoned.

A wander through the streets with a crystal of support in her hand, knowing full well that this needed to be delivered before the quest would be finished. Producing it and offering it toward the robed male NPC, who eyes it precariously in her grasp. "That it?" He asks her, a bit cautious in his delivery of the statement. "It is." Kasumi offers her signature smile, extending it out to him. A sudden rip of his blade toward her, She slides beneath the attack, on her face was almost a horrified look. "What are you doing?" The blossom asks of him in a plead. "Take it, you don't want this."

A moment of silence as the guy begins to eyeball his sword with a raise.

"Of course I do, you were trying to trick me weren't you?" Rushing toward Kasumi with fervor, another attempt on her life. A snap of her frame sees the blade stopped dead inbetween two hands. The crystal he sought clatters on the floor beneath her feet. "Stop..." Kasumi pleads of him, wishing for him to take a different course before she was forced...

Just like that, it was over. The heat of the floor came as a rush to the senses, as that adrenaline from battle began to fade. Sam had asked her something, and glance to her Kasumi could tell she was serious. "I don't know if I am quite a good teacher for that." Her mind raced against the fact that she was still dealing with her own inhibitions that was slowing down her progress. The best she could assume is she'd just end up slowing down Sam's growth. "I would ask Raidou, he would know better where you belong." the blossom laid it out rather carefully, yeah her cousin was busy. But she knew that if Sam were to ask him, he'd spare the time to help her. He was a much better teacher, and if he couldn't help her he'd see her to someone who could. With an adjust of her hand wraps, she kept a plain stare as a confirmation that she was heard.

The girl was already long past a conversation with the smith that was the main focus of this quest, asking of him to make a suit of light armor. Kasumi was unconvinced that he could produce anything that would outperform her current attire, as expected given hers was made by another crafter that made that NPC pale in capability. Even still she was trying to convince herself of her own volition to take this elves life. A harsh swallow that felt like daggers as it passed from her throat, singed the edges as it flowed down. A tighten of her fists, a shut of her eyes to affirm her stance and force herself to do what must be done. The guy begins to charge her down in her tranquil meditation, and a single tear met with a hand like a razor that slides through his ribcage like butter. He falls limp and slides off, plummeting to the floor. Another swallow followed by a deep inhale and exhale. He was dead. And it was her that had done it.
