-[] SUPLEX THE TRAIN




Clenching your hand into a fist. The Witch came barreling towards you with pure fury in its form. You moved to meet it and gather strength in your hand. Thundering footsteps came close as the train witch howled while your red eyes glowed, leaving behind a trail of scarlet.

The two of you closed in on one another before you slammed your fist against the front of it. A shockwave of epic proportions struck the Witch barrier as the Witch itself was stopped dead on her tracks. That didn't mean you were left unaffected by the impact behind the Witch's crash.

You were left numb but you held on as the Witch was left Immobilized for a moment. You then used this chance to grab it by its front and utilize your inhuman strength. Lifting it up, it took much of your power to do so but the Witch soon found herself being raised.

Slowly but surely, you lifted it up as grief traveled through your arms like spiderwebs. Trailing over your flesh like corrupted veins, you held up the Witch as you narrowed your gaze from the strain.

You sensed movement to the side as Reika appeared in her costume.

"There you are! We've been looking... All... Oh..." Reika slowly faltered before Sai appeared alongside Madoka and Yue.

Sai took off her cowboy hat with raised eyebrow, "Oh... Oh wow."

"She vanished for a second, helps a girl turn into a magical girl and now suplexes a train," Madoka observed before glancing to the side, "Reika, don't get too excited now."

"What's the supposed to mean?!" Reika huffed as she turned red.

You then swung the Witch down in a perfectly performed German suplex. The train Witch groaned as you pushed yourself away from it as you watched it rise up.

You saw a trail of red jump in as you saw Yue spiral in with her weapon. She smashed her axe against the Witch's jaw and forced it to stagger.

She looked at you, "Let me help!"

"Understood," you nodded as your companions ran in.

"Honestly, we're going to have a talk later," Reika growled as she hopped to your side.

Sai took her position behind you, "Easy does it. Let's support the newbie in her first fight. Yukina, can you play Tank roles?"

"I'll gather enemy attention. Please do as much damage in the mean time," You replied as the Witch howled in rage.

Madoka summoned a sniper rifle and rested it over her shoulder, "Go."

You moved and ran past Yue, "Hit it when it's busy."

"Gotcha!" Yue replied as she ran behind you. The Witch unleashed missiles into the air but they were shot down by Madoka and Sai from the back.

The Witch turned to swing it's metal tail at you, forcing you to jump. It faced you and opened its maw just as you punched its face down. Yue slammed her axe against the Witch's jaw before you both broke formation as Madoka and Sai pummeled it with their weapons.

You drew aggro by hurtling a gear in the Witch's face before knocking it's head upwards. Yue spun down and knocked it down as you and Reika struck. Reika cut its face and sunk her blade through the Witch's metal hide before you weakened it further with a solid kick.

You moved and summoned a gear upwards to launch the Witch face into the air. Reika then performed an iai strike which blinded the beast enough for Sai and Madoka to land vital hits in its body.

You then jumped to hang on to its jaw and make it face the wrong away. This was before Yue was waiting to perform an upwards slash while you drove a gear down on its head. Reika cut, slashed and swung her sword to strike the Witch's back while Madoka and Sai worked to pick off pieces of its body.

The Witch unleashed steam from its body making you and Yue pull away. However before it could cover the battlefield, Reika sliced through the mist and split it. The Witch was gone.

A red spotlight came at Madoka's side before the Witch caught her in a charge.

"Madoka!" You cried out as the Gas Masked girl was driven into the dirt and into a solid wall.

"Sai! Support me!" Reika snapped as she rushed in however pink magic erupted from where the Witch was.

"Fake Out," Madoka breathed through her gas mask as she emitted a pulse which knocked the Witch back. Pink lightning was joined by green light as the Witch was sent staggering.

Sai summoned a cluster of dynamite and threw it past Reika. The dynamites were lit but Sai had another idea. Time seemed to slow for her as her vision turned orange. Holding out her revolver, her pupils turned into a slits.

"Dead Eye," She smirked as she pulled the trigger. The bullet grazed the Witch but had enough power to make jerk its face straight into the Dynamite's path.

A portion of the Witch's face was shattered, leaving it open as Reika prepared to cut. With her weapon sheathed, she waited for the moment the Witch would be open. As debris and fire flew past her, she kept her focus.

"Slay All," Reika declared as her arm glowed with potent magic, "Severance!

A flash of blue erupted from her form and the Witch was left with her leg amputated. It lost its balance with a crash. But then it used it remaining limb to pounce on Reika recovering from her attack.

You got in front of her and caught the Witch as it fell. Lifting it up, grief charged your limbs as you endured the strain. Letting out a breath, you turned as Yue held her glowing axe.

"Suplex City!" You snarled as you swung the Witch overhead

Yue's axe burned as the back of its head emitted a surge of magma. The Witch fell on her as she ascended with a mighty cleave, "GAROU!"

The Witch was chopped on half. Yue's axe sank it's glowing blade into the Witch's metal hide and cutting like hot knife through butter. The Witch howled as Yue broke through the monster's body and emerged in the air. The Witch fell into the ground as pieces of burning metal clattered.

Yue had her descent and landed with her axe still burning brightly. Magma oozed from its blade as she dismissed it and fell down her knees as a result.

The Witch broke apart as the Barrier crumbled. What was left in the wake of the Witch was a single grief seed that clattered on the floor. Yue's hood fell as she picked up the seed and held it in her hand.

Your companions dismissed their transformations, save for Madoka, and walked up to the girl. Reika knelt by Yue's side to speak to her while Sai came up to you. You glanced her way as she pat your shoulder.

"Kyubey filled us in. But really, don't do that again," Sai reminded you with a worried look.

"No promises," you replied as you shook your head, "What of her friends?"

"They're safe. Madoka healed them when we found them. Yue met with us soon after and led us to you," Sai explained as she glanced at the girl, "Listen, she's a newbie. Don't tell her anything about where Witches come from and about Soul Gems. A lot of girls don't take it well so let's leave her with the Asunaro Admins to deal with."

"Understood," you replied but you didn't fully get it. You'll inquire about it later.

"I already called our contact. She'll be linking up with us here," Sai said as she glanced to the side, "In fact she's right here now."

A girl in a simple purple blouse and white skirt walked out of the shadows. She adjusted her glasses as Madoka and Reika turned their gaze her way.

"When you said that you brought troublesome companions, I never expected this," the girl said as she zeroed her gaze on you, "A GriefBorne... You know this violates our treaties, Miss Aoyama Sai."

"Miss Misaki Umika. Hello to you too," Sai breathed as she moved you behind her.

"We had an agreement. Between all cities throughout Japan," Umika coldly intoned while keeping her eyes on you.

Sai glanced at Reika but the latter simply rolled her eyes as if to say 'I fucking told you so'.

"What's your reason for bringing a GriefBorne to our doorstep?" Umika questioned as she glared at Sai.

-[] "Would you happen to have a stick up your rear, Miss?"
-[] What do you say?

I see an opportunity for Yukina to talk shit, and I'm going to take it.

Switching back, as fun as irreverence might be guys, this is a pretty serious diplomatic matter. 'Do you have a stick up your ass' is liable to cause serious problems not just for us but for our faction as a whole.

You do remember we're on the brink of an inevitable war right? We probably can't afford More enemies.
 
Sorry guys. Not feeling it tonight. I'll leave you to discuss your best course of action.

This is a pretty heavy vote. I'll get back to you in the morning for me. Have fun.
 
Was hoping to form a connection with kazumi over the whole Griefborne effect but the insult vote concerns me and her partners might be overprotective of their cinnamon bun if taken the wrong way.
 
Oh so we've got time, goodie, I'm going to make up a write-in then.

-[x] "The one who made me has already been punished for my creation in any case. Is it just to punish me for existing when I had no say in being brought into this world?"
-[x] If she pushes for details, ask to move to somewhere less public to talk.
 
Why are you voting for the stick option, it's stupid, it's literally going to start another war. She has legitimate reasons to be concerned and you're just 'hey fuck you'.

Why are any of you voting for this it's a shitty option that will have shitty consequences.
 
If a terrible idea would be funny, or have inyetesting consequences, I'll vote for it.

That joke isn't funny, and it's going to make our job that much harder for no good reason.

It's simply not worth it

Edit: thinking more, I actually don't want to present ourself as a simple tool, but a lost soul looking for guidance, the fact that we are, in fact, here on a job is less important
