Credinta raid

Characters: Mitsunari Ishida, Sora, Sagan Yōuji, Uzumaki Naruto, Link
When: Evening of Sept 16
Where: Starting by the river over into Credinta
Rating: T
Summary: Raiding Credinta, again.

The rain would make good cover for their raid. Mitsunari couldn't see the troops on the other side of the river clearly but he knew from many long stack outs of his own that by now they would be tired and a bit cranky and counting the time they could go back inside, in short they would not be thinking about their job.

He smiled, and absentmindedly pulled out a length of fuse to finish off the package he was having Naruto deliver. With the boy's flare for the dramatic he was sure that he could find just the place this would be most dramatic.

Leaning back under the awning, he settled down watching the rain, not much longer before this party would get started.

...

"What? Why? It hasn't been hostile. Have you already met?" Mitsunari turned to stare at Youji for half a second before realizing that that might be leaving his back exposed.

He noticed that Youji was moving behind him and taking the role of the non-combatant. That was fine; it left him in better control of the situation and at no point was that something he felt should be in the Bakeneko's possession.

And the fish person seemed to trying to reassure them more then anything.

He did pull out his Tessen and fanned it out next to himself, a bit more space between the other parties seemed like it would probably make everyone more comfortable.

"But it's groooss," he whined, glaring at it and nudging Mitsunari's back with the pads of his fingers. "Get rid of it. I don't like it." It was simple enough to his. Gross, annoying, or useless things should be gotten rid of, it was as simple as that.

Link's frantic waving stopped and he blinked once more in surprise. He was gross?

Link looked down at himself and saw only the Zora skin he currently existed in. It was the most comfortable thing to be in during a rainstorm. His clothes wouldn't get wet and his eyes didn't need to blink the water away.

But he supposed he could change if that would help...

Link reached behind him and pulled out a wooden mask. Placing it against his face, he held in a silent scream as his body changed to that of a Deku shrub and the Zora mask fell to the ground before him. Now the size of a small child at roughly one and a half to two feet tall, and covered with bark and leaves, Link picked up the mask and tucked in behind him. It disappeared and he was left with nothing but a flower in his hand and rather weepy looking eyes.

His petals and leaves becoming more soaked by the second, he held the small flower that had blossomed in the wake of his transformation out toward the two. At his feet, another bud was taking shape.

Gross? Mitsunari didn't really see what Youji was getting at... Sure he didn't want to suddenly be a fish person but he rather thought it was kind of pretty, in a thank god it isn't me sort of way.

"Youji; do you really want to..."

At this point Link changed and Mitsunari froze.

He very carefully didn't move. The situation seemed to be under control, the fish person wasn't a fish person any more but it didn't seem to any more hostile then it was a minute ago.

Somehow he didn't think that he had just missed the fish person in the river earlier.

He really hoped that the change wouldn't hurt when the rest of them caught them.

Youji's attitude seemed to change with the change, and he peered out from behind Mitsunari, lips curling into a soft smile. "Ohh, cuuute," he cooed, cheeks flushing. He wasn't particularly concerned with what it had been now that it was cute.

Happy at no longer being found gross by the pig-tailed girl, Link's pouty eyes didn't seem to change much, but he managed to blow a large bubble that floated across the space between them and up a few feet before going 'pop'.

The flower bud at his feet grew steadily.

Mitsunari started to relax with Youji's reassessment of Link.

Without worrying about irrational killing and the deeper but not less scary thought that boy might be right to so murderous, he pull himself off that razerwire share edge of 'need-to-act-now'.

The creature (was it one of them?) seemed to be harmless and Youji seemed like he was going to act it. So Mitsunari folded up his tessen and let himself relax a bit.

If they was going to turn into a fish/tree person he was and there was nothing that could be done about it right now.

If they weren't then it just might be a new 'guest' of the apartment that he hadn't met yet. A spirit, like the bakeneko.

He sighed, well there was nothing else to do really. He looked into the creatures deep sorrowful eye and them only making him feel guiltier as he asked "Do we know you?"

Youji laughed at the bubble, venturing out from behind Mitsunari and closer to the creature, hoping it would make more of them. "Why were you a fish thing when you could be this thing? This is much cuter," he said with a decisive nod."

Link looked up at Youji and then pointed at the sky, followed by pointing at the water. It was obvious to him that in wet conditions, being a Zora was far more practical. And truthfully a bit more fun. A small squeak escaped him, sounding almost like a dog's squeaky toy.

At Mitsunari's question, Link tilted his head and shrugged. He certainly didn't recognize either of the two fairies.

Mitsunari looked at Youji for a long moment after he asked his question.

Youji should not be treated as a good source of information. Ever. Like trusting Kunoichi.

....If the creature could change at will, he couldn't imagine a reason why it would want /not/ to be a fish in this weather. Well he could but he wouldn't choose to be a plant thing over it.

At the shrug Mitsunari sighed, it didn't seem to recognize them. It was more likely that this wasn't a new game for herself.

"Are you alright?"

Sora came running down to them, skidding to a halt and doubling over with his hands on his knees, taking a moment to catch his breath before straightening slowly and grinning at them, "Sorry I'm late." He'd been daydreaming again and lost track of time.

He shifted, folding his hands behind his head and glancing around at them. His eyes went wide when he spotted the strange creature, running over and dropping to his knees, "Whoa! What's this?"

"It's a tree thing that blows bubbles," Youji supplied, as though it were obvious, "And before that it was a gross fish thing. This is much cuter than a fish thing, don't you think?"

Link nodded at Mitsunari's question, letting out another squeak, the only happy sound he could make as a Deku. At least to those who weren't Deku themselves.

His sad eyes moved back to Youji and something about how the girl spoke made him think he'd seen her before somewhere. He just couldn't place it.

Sora's entrance and subsequent barreling over to take a closer look startled Link and with a surprised bubble blown right in the Keyblade Wielder's face, he spun down into the large flower that opened and bloomed at his feet. It closed in around him, looking like a one foot bud that was hiccuping just a little. A few seconds later, it opened and Link shot out upward, two flowers in his hands spinning like heli-copper propellers as he began drift downward from the apex of the toss.

The little plant-man's feet wiggled as the wind and rain pushed him slowly over the river and across to the other bank. A pouty squeak at flying in the wrong direction could be heard as he disappeared into the darkness of the evening.

So the creature claimed to be alright.

Well then it probably wasn't another game, a new arrival maybe? Or an older one that had the sense to avoid the apartment perhaps?

At Sora's abrupt entrance Mitsunari straightened his stance; there was just a bit too much energy in the room, and he had not desire to be pulled over. All in all he was fairly relaxed given that the situation seemed ready to dissolve into chaos at any minute. As it did.

He tried not to think about how Link's departure worked to hard, given that he knew that it had to be pure magic.

He sighed "I think it was a new arrival."

A long look to the farther bank knowing that his plan probably was shot.

"We should probably rescue it.

"And Sora don't worry you weren't really late."

Sora took the bubble in the face, falling onto his back, too startled to move at first, rubbing at his face and sitting up quickly, gasping. "Ah! Hey! I didn't mean to scare you!"

He jumped to his feet, folding his hands behind his head and glancing at Youji, "You said it used to be a fish thing...? Huh." It was sort of like his clothes, changing from world to world. "So, it can change back then?"

He watched again, stunned as the creature took off into the sky and out of sight. He shifted, dropping his hands back to his sides, grinning at Mitsunari, "A rescue mission and a raid?"

Youji took a few steps after it, but stopped at the river bank. He wasn't supposed to play in rivers. It didn't look so dangerous, but Nagisa-sensei said so, and even here he was uncertain about disobeying.

"Come back," he said with a pout, tail twitching and ears pressing low against his head. He looked back when Sora addressed him, twisting a face. "But it's ugly when it's a fish thing."

It was just bad luck for Youji that the 'fish thing' was 'ugly' because that was really Link's only option for getting back across the river without drawing attention to himself from the people on the other bank.

He landed securely enough on the opposite bank and waited a few moments to make sure he hadn't been seen. No shouts or sounds of the odd weapons could be heard. So carefully... ever so carefully, he edged over to the bank and slipped the Zora mask on.

The 'cute' deku form slipped away and fell to the ground. He picked the mask up automatically and then dived back in the river.

It took him a few times swimming up and down in the dark, rain disturbed water before he finally spotted the trio once more. In silence, his body glided under the surface toward them.

{{let the Jaws music begin}}

Sora scratched his head, "Ugly?" He hadn't seen it so he couldn't really judge but for some reason he kept picturing the half-fish people from Atlantica.

He walked over to the edge of the river, squatting down and squinting through the rain, "There's something coming." He got to his feet quickly, jumping back and holding out his hand, ready to summon his Keyblade.

Mitsunari looked over at Sora, he couldn't see a thing but it very possible that his vision wasn't as good as the boy. Or Sora might be having a case battle nerves.

"It might be the creature, able to return on it's own." Or it might not, he fingered his tessen thoughtfully, but seeing no reason to add fuel to the trigger-happy state of his companions. "But we should still head over towards the bridge, that will be a better place to act if we need to."

Youji peered into the water, ears pricked as high as they could go with an extremely curious look on his face. "Can't we just play with the weird thing?"

Link slowed as he reached the bank once more, lifting his head from below and treading water just far enough from the edge to be in deep enough water. He had to fight the current, of course, but that was relatively simple for a guy with fins.

He tilted his head to the side and waved causiously at the group, hoping the pigtailed girl with cat ears wouldn't be too upset he was a Zora again. But it was kind of hard for him to swim otherwise....

Sora straightened slowly, glancing at Mitsunari and relaxing after a moment, looking towards the bridge, "Is it okay to go over now? Everyone's here?"

He shook his head quickly, sending droplets of water flying from his hair. He started in the direction of the bridge, noticing the movement in the water. "Ah! Hey! I think it's the fish-guy!" He waved back. He blinked, "You think it needs help?"

It looked like the creature had gotten back on it's own alright. And frankly going by actions it was probably friendlier then Youji.

"It doesn't look like we're going to need help it out; and Naruto is also going with us. He should be back in a minute. So we should probably wait a couple minutes for him to get back. Besides..." He looked up at the darkening sky. "This will probably go better after twilight has properly set in."
