Asch the Bloody ([personal profile] dissonates) wrote2011-05-13 03:35 pm

[Video]

[It's early afternoon. The journal flies open and turns on abruptly in mid-air, a blast of resonating energy having blown it away from where it had been placed. As it flies, a few flashes of red, white, and black are visible, and when it lands, Asch and Luke are in the distance, swords clashing, the rec center just beyond where they're fighting. Occasionally they'll exchange commentary, but none of it seems to filter in.

The resonating noise continues, though, and as their swords clash one more time, it seems to grow even louder than before, until finally one shout rings clear-]


Pull back you dre-

[And before he can even finish, an explosion of light flares between them, and two identical cries of alarm are the only sound that filters through that eerie resonance. The light spreads, flaring outwards and sending the journal flying backwards, cutting off the feed.

The light is probably visible to most of the village as a single beam of light flying up towards the barrier and disappearing from sight. And there is a nice big crater in the forest just south of the rec center, where pretty much anything in that location - trees, bushes, grass, whatever - has... pretty much been decimated. A journal bearing Asch's name on the cover is sitting in the grass just outside of the crater, looking pretty ripped up and charred. The scene overall probably looks pretty dooming, especially since neither of the redheads are anywhere to be found.


[ooc: most responses will come from Luke, though Asch will chime in as well when he can!]

[But it wasn't a lie! It was just... avoiding it a little...

He sighs. Okay, it was sort of a lie. But he hates talking about the destructive power of hyperresonance. He'd rather avoid it at all costs unless someone already knows the intricacies of it, like Jade. Still... the reason he told Xion about hyperresonace in the first place was to be honest with her.]


... Yeah. And I'm sorry.

... [His voice turns more subdued.]

That was an incomplete hyperresonance. It happens when two seventh fonists clash together... like me and Asch. I still don't really get it... so I don't like talking about it.

I'm sorry.
fabrecation: (DO NOT LIKE)

[Oh, that voice. Luke returns that with a quiet little snarl of his own. He's never been fond of Dist, and especially after what Ion told him regarding his death... Ugh. How can the rest of them live with that man?]

We're fine, so shut up already.

[For your information, Dist moved out the second the experiment ended. And he hasn't returned yet, either. 8| Though sensing such a level of hostility from the Luke replica is...definitely odd. Dist expected that from Asch, really, thus he raises a questioning brow. It doesn't last long, though, before he scoffs right back.]

Oh, what a pity... And here I was so ready to volunteer to write an obituary for you both.

[Oh goodness. Whatever is going on with this...this, it's kind owait a moment.

If Xion happens to look up at Mewtwo right about now, she'll see that he is watching her, head tilted, with an expression of vague curiosity.]

[ Right, right, okay, checking the map, and.... ]

Okay. I think I've got it. Should I bring anything? [ Written sloppily, as she is already distracted and going to get what supplies she can grab quickly ]

[Why was she worried about you again? B|]

You-- [Oh. Okay, fine. Miyabi accepts this challenge. She leers back at her journal, eyes narrowed.] ...At least I don't have lines on my face yet, or a receding hairline. How old are you again, Asch?

[ She does look at Mewtwo, sideways. Only briefly. Then she has to duck her head, trying to fight off tears. Her shoulders are shaking.

She agrees with Asch once again, admittedly ... though probably for different reasons. Rubbing ineffectually at her eyes, she tries again to speak, and this time her voice is thick. ]


Luke... just... [ A sniffle. Very gently ] Asch is right. You need to get to shore safely. We'll ... we'll talk then, okay?

[ She shuts the journal before he can get a word in edgewise, then sets it down, using both hands now to rub at her eyes. Jeez, don't cry... ]

Stupid...

[ Please. She already has them, and is quickly stuffing them in a large shoulder bag. She makes it back to the journal, only to shake her head and jot out a quick note ]

Got some - will be there soon

[ After which point she quickly makes her way back out. It'll take her a minute or two to settle on a starting location for the portal -- but outside their apartment building is the best spot she can think of on short notice. To save time, she portals her way there, then ... pauses, gathering herself. Then, with a deep breath, she shuts her eyes and opens a portal to the spot she remembers from the map -- the spot Asch described.

At that same moment, Asch will see an oval of swirling darkness appear about ten feet away. Xion will appear a few moments later, her bag over her shoulder. ]

[Hmm. Okay. Obviously she's upset. And it's because Luke didn't tell her that the explosion was caused by a hyperresonance.

Humans aren't that weird, so there has to be something else to it that he doesn't know. And...it's not his business to ask.

Mewtwo closes his eyes, sighing quietly. He doesn't know what to do with upset humans, especially ones that aren't his trainer. The best he can do is listen to whatever Xion wants or needs to say.]

[Ohoho, THE TABLES HAVE TURNED.]

And all that's happened already? Oh, wow, you're going to need help chewing your food in just another few years if this keeps up! Maybe Luke can help you with that.

I'm being stupid...

[ She sniffles again, and rubs at her eyes, then gives an abrupt, watery laugh ]

Sorry, Mewtwo. I just ... I don't know what I would have done if something had happened to him. To either of them.

[Awww, and here he was sure kick #20 would get it working!

Luke has, however, seen the portals before, since he and Xion had gone through them before. He's a little nervous, considering the last thing he heard from her, but once she appears...

He might feel terrible, and like he'd done something very wrong, but he still has to smile and take a few steps toward her.]


Xion...

[ As soon as she sees Luke, she falters a little. Not because of him precisely but ... after a moment, she gestures with one of her hands, and the portal behind her closes with a wisp of darkness. This might take a few minutes, and she doesn't want to scare anyone who might be going in or out of their building...

Once that's done, she just watches Luke for a long moment before she works up a weak smile. ]


Hey. [ A beat, then ] Um -- I brought towels. [ She takes her bag off her shoulder and sets it on the sand before her. ] ... Asch's journal is in there, too.
fabrecation: (Asch grow up)

[So, Luke shuts off their communication to talk to other people, and to reach the shore. It's about half an hour later when Luke's voice pops up again, very irritated.]

The teleporter's broken.
fabrecation: (Biggest derp award goes to:)

[Voice - THREADJACK]

[personal profile] fabrecation 2011-05-21 04:06 am (UTC)(link)
[For a brief moment, Luke stops whatever kind of abuse he's giving to the teleporter to stick his head out of the fort.]

Help with what? [He heard his name and "help with that", and that's about it.]
fabrecation: (A good day to do what has to be done)

[Voice]

[personal profile] fabrecation 2011-05-21 04:08 am (UTC)(link)
[... That's probably the best thing Luke heard all day. Thanks, Yuri. Luke has to smile and shut his eyes with relief.]

Good... I hope it does.
fabrecation: (Ha ha subject evasion!)

[Voice]

[personal profile] fabrecation 2011-05-21 04:11 am (UTC)(link)
Y-Yeah... [He... doesn't really want to get into details.] We're heading to shore now. ... Asch is, anyway.
fabrecation: (But I've had enough)

[Voice]

[personal profile] fabrecation 2011-05-21 04:12 am (UTC)(link)
[Why is he - rrgh. Luke's grip around Asch's shoulders tighten almost protectively as he replies.]

What, did you want us to die?!

[Voice]

[identity profile] chiisaichou.livejournal.com 2011-05-21 04:24 am (UTC)(link)
[Before Asch can interupt, Miyabi pipes up with the happiest, sing-song voice she can muster, sounding almost entirely honest as she chimes in.]

Asch is getting old and losing his teeth! You're going to have to chew his food for him, Luke.
