Crystalwatcher's Magical Girl Quest!

Wait so you can GET a 4 affinity?
Isn't something that you have to be born with?
It's fully possible to attain new Affinities alongside pre-existing Affinities. The only set thing is that regular magical practitioners start with one, demons two, and magical girls three.

Getting another Affinity somewhere down the line is seen as either a sign of a genius or a very experienced practitioner. Mostly because it requires either a massive level of understanding in relation to the Affinity or getting the mental bends on steroids and not going insane.

I ALREADY KNOW WHAT NEW AFFINITY WE'RE GOING TO GET.

"You care to say that again you bitch?"

You went to the base's airfield with the intent to make a visit to Carnage as you had promised two days ago. Once there you had found... this. Your state of mind can be summed up as confusion.

"What, didn't hear me the first time horny?"

"That's it-"

"Gha-!"

Carnage has Truth pinned to the tarmac. Straddling her struggling form, the smile on her face confuses you rather thoroughly. At least, that was until Truth leverages her arms enough to force a head-butt. Carnage goes cross-eyed, rears back, and loses her hold on Truth. Temporarily freed, the taller girl thrusts her hips forward, upending Carnage and flipping her to the side. Instantly she rolls atop her, grabbing an arm and bending it behind her back. Pressed against the tarmac, Carnage grins.

"Oh, if this is how you wanted it, all you had to do was ask~"

Truth's face goes a bright red. You have no idea what the fuck you had walked in on.

"I- That- WHAT?!"

At least you're not alone in your confusion. Loosening her hold as her brain tried to process what was just said, Truth is unprepared as Carnage bucks. Thrown forward, Truth face plants into the ground. Carnage then shows off her flexibility as she folds herself into a semi-backflip to land on Truth's back and wraps her arms beneath the other girl's and run her fingers through her hair. Your mind, still in mid reboot, freezes again. The nose bleed starts.

"But I do so prefer to be on top though... so much more fun for us both in my opinion."

"I- Y-" Truth seems to be choking on something. "How did we get to this? How are you doing this to me?"

"Maybe I want my own little sister~"

Truth's brain shuts down just as you collapse from lack of oxygen and blood loss, drawing Carnage's attention to where you crumpled.

"Huh. That worked far better then I had intended. Two for one maybe?"

The White Dragon ignores your fidgeting from where you rested on his neck. Truth was curled into as small a ball as she could manage right below you as Carnage ran the metal brush she had been using last time you had come by along the dragon's side. You kept trying to clear your mind of the mass of lewd images that were stuck there while Truth tried to finish her reboot.

"You have absolutely no shame. Do you?"

The question provides sufficient distraction from the... other distractions. Your face still feels like it's going to melt though.

"Not a smidgen. Have you seen my Magical Girl outfit?"

And there goes your hope for a distraction. As your new-found libido goes for another Carnage X Truth-fueled joyride, Truth nearly screams in frustration. Sounds more like a drowning cat but the point is given. Carnage simply laughs at the both of you.

"I'm lesbian, as you both probably guessed. My mother and father didn't take too kindly to learning that little fact. Mom tried to kill me and dad... Well. He though he could 'fix' my orientation with the right methods. According the psychiatrists the whole mess screwed me up for life. I've adapted reasonably well, but I've been left with some... interesting proclivities. Or so I'm told."

This leads to you blanching and having flashback to your 'mother' while Truth simply stares at Carnage in horror.

You already know what your dreams were going to be about that night.

"Ya damn brat! I work my tail off to put food on this damn table and this is how you thank me? You little shits need to learn some damned respect!"

"M-mom! Please, stop! Your hurting her!"

"Shut up you little bitch! Don't you dare think ya're off the hook either!"

"Gah!"

"Anastasia!"

On the fourth day at the base you wake not to Jessica's alarm clock.

You wake the wailing of sirens.

You're out of your bed almost simultaneously as the rest of your team leaps from theirs, everything tinged red by the alert and memory already gone.

"What's going on?" You follow your team at a dead sprint towards where the entire military compliment of the base seems to be funneling towards: the air fields. You hadn't bothered to get anything other then your skin suit on and transformed before your team began their rush to the helicopters. Once there James confronted the base commander, who was in an apparent argument with Rei. The leader of Truth's team is also there, also intending to find out where you were all needed.

Rei responds first. "New York and a small town in southern New Hampshire are under attack. Manhattan Island has already been taken, but the bridges out are holding. There's fighting along the rivers surrounding the island but..."

The simple fact that whoever was invading had come in through one of the major North American cities meant whoever was doing it was confident that they would be able to pull it off. Which said a lot because of the fact they were directly invading Earth.

When it came to the Local Dimensional Cluster, the Unified Darkness and Unified Light were divided along a roughly equidistant line. Relatively speaking anyway. The fact was the different 'dimensions' were lined up like a honeycomb structure. The tactics this lead to meant that the 'positioning' of those dimensions mattered when moving armies, despite some spells allowing the jumping of entire sections of the structure. Earth was positioned along the battle line between the two factions in such a way that to breach the Unified Light's line, one would have to either neutralize the Earth's ability to support the local dimensions or take Earth itself.

And that? That was a pretty tall order. Two Thirds of Earth's armies were spread thin across the nearly two dozen dimensions that made up the battle line in the war. But that didn't mean that last third that remained on Earth was a pushover. A single platoon of Human Infantry could smash most other opposition. A tank column tended to get entire groups of Arc Demons as responses. The fact that Earth's armies were spread so thin was so far the reason the war was in a stalemate. But attacking Earth meant you had to face that disparity in quality while focused.

Very few demon lords had the guts to try pulling that off. Especially after the Second Fall of Rome and the Oblivion Incident.

"So... what the problem?"

Your voice cuts off the arguing almost immediately as everyone remembers that your right there. The base commander sighs.

"The problem... is that the secondary attack is being made by Goddess Red."

And there was the clincher. That meant...

"Rei... will have to go to the location of the second attack. But... the number of Demons needed to take and hold Manhattan Island would..."

"It would require me to clear them out without significant casualties."

Rei's face is contorted in frustration and rage. It is obvious she wishes to be at both locations, but knows she can't. If she respond to the Manhattan crisis, it would leave Goddess Red free to do whatever it was that she was doing because there were no other Magical Girls capable of stopping her. But if she responded to Red, the forces fighting on Manhattan would take numerous casualties.

"Trust us." Rei starts and looks at you, while all the soldiers turn as well. You walk up to your 'owner'. "We can take care of New York. Trust us." She watches you for a moment before...

"Alright. I'll go find out what Goddess Red is after, and you all go purge Manhattan of it's little demon infestation." She's grinning. And you feel your spirits lift.

"Right!"

"Yes Ma'am!"

The soldiers are smiling now as well.

As you and Team GEAR run to your designated helicopters with Truth and Carnage ahead of you, you can't help but feel that everything was going to be ok.

Can you see me? Sega?

The sun is well into the sky by the time the relief forces arrive in the sky over Manhattan Island. Pillars of smoke stretch into the sky, screams echo through the air, and the smell of burnt flesh fills your nose.

And in the center of the city, five massive doorways. Each the size of a five story building, and marching out of them, massive columns of ten-foot tall demons. Your confidence is suddenly nowhere to be found.

"Five Hellgates. That many means more than one Duke is in on this." You're not entirely sure what Truth means, focused as you are on the seemingly endless ranks of demons, but her voice cuts through the sound of chopper blades easily, "If we're going to retake the island, those gates need to close. The tanks are ten minutes behind us, but I'm not sure if the barricades will hold."

"Then we go for the Gates. Plow through as quickly a we can and close them. One of us should seek to aid the barricades while the other seeks to close those gates." Carnage sounds slightly distracted as she gazes across the battlefield.

You can see demons trying to cross the water, but soldiers gun them down in droves. More try to rush the bridges but local defense vehicles use heavy machineguns to push them back. The whole thing is pure chaos. But you can tell with the number of demons coming through it won't last forever.

"Then I'll go help the barricades. This is your kind of battlefield Carnage, so I'll leave it to you to handle the Gates."

She nods, and they both turn to you. "Who're you going with Solid Core? Your choice."

You turn to James and your team: they all nod at you.

Your choice...

Because Dragons and death and destruction, also a huge amout of exp if we survive.
 
[X]Help Carnage with the Gates.

I'd rate our odds higher as an attacker picking the fight than as a defender who can't let someone slip close. Give the Gate attacking Carnage some ranged cover fire.

Any good XP allocations guys?
 
Loving her Truth and Carnage interest, would be nice to see Gear on top in the future should she becomes Goddess badass.

[x]Help Carnage with the Gates.

These different 'dimensions' thing interest me the most, perhaps crossovers like Hyperdimension Neptunia? Would be great if you could somehow connect to Hyperdimension Rising one day.

Our celestial severance will be very helpful in closing the Gates with its 'Unstoppable' ability.
