"We are sorry for the inconveniance, but due to some toxic gas in the subways, you will be unable to leave the city boundries for a while, It is leaking upwards from the subway in varies spots making leaving highly unsafe, again we are sorry for the inconveniance, but this is all for your own personal health." An armed officer was speaking to a large crowd through a microphone, "We will be providing food and sheklter while the situation is being dealt with, there is no cause for alarm, we have succured this area for your personal safety." he continued to speak for a long time.

"Sounds like he is just trying to reassure us of some tragic event that we are supposed to know." Will mumbled to himself aloud as he was playing with a comp that he bought earlier that day. The man he bought it from was kinda suspicious, but he managed to make the sale after telling William of how he would need it and how it would be able to predict his future, he wasn't normally suckered in by such lies, but for some reason he thought this one might work, or at the very least it would keep him entertained as he had to remain in the city. "This bites, I can't start it...piece of junk..." he slid it into his pocket. Even if it was broken, he thoguht it might be a useful object to bargin with in case of emergancy, or he could just bash people with it, after all, the area had more then a few cases of strange murders lately.

He walked a little bit and sat in the park on the bench, he took the thing out once more and thats when he first saw it. The Laplace mail.



(OoC: Well then, it begins, I hope this was an acceptable start. Effort and me ain't close, so me and quality ain't good friends either, lol.)

(OoC: Works for me. lol Don't hesitate to consult me if you get stuck. We are co-hosts after all.)

Riku was in his room when the announcement came but it was loud enough to hear. "Jeez, what's up with that?" he said aloud, although his parents were out of town so there was no one to hear him. "Oh well, not like I had any plans to leave. Wonder if this gas will leak into the city." He absent-mindedly pushed up on his glasses. "If that is the real story." He didn't trust very many people, least of all the government. They claimed they wanted to help the country but they're just in it for the money. He read a number of underground articles about it on the Internet. A lot were probably false but some had evidence to back up their claims.
While he was mulling the severity of the situation over, he turned and looked at his new COMP. He was very lucky to find something so valuable on the ground, even if it seemed broken. He had a charger for his old COMP so he plugged it in and it seemed to work fine. He noticed there was mail. "Probably nothing to care about. It is intended for someone else after all." The sender was amusing enough to warrant looking at it though. Laplace. He was familiar with the theory known as Laplace's demon and wondered if it was somehow related.

"The hell? Is that today's horoscope or something?" He set it aside for the time being and went back to surfing the Web.

"Ehhh?!" Asa blinked at the soldier, "Subway's close because of toxic GAS!?!?!" She gasped and dramatically took a step back, clapping her hands on her face in mock fear. "Well darn! Now I can't get those shoes I wanted." She whined, making fun of a very plastic looking girl standing a way off from her. Asa really wasn't the type of girl interested in looking good or possessing materialistic things. You only live once. She thought, You should enjoy the world around you, not what you can buy. Stupid girl. She huffed and put her hands on her hips, glancing down at the COMP she bought off of some weird old man. It reminded her of a hand-held gaming console her little brother used to play with. "How do i even turn this thing on...Err..." Asa held it up to her face, turning it this way and that. "Stupid Jiji, didn't even tell me how to turn it o-" *Ding* "AH HA!!" Asa held the COMP up triumphantly, "Take that technology!!!" She looked at the screen of the COMP, "Mail?"


"Today, they will come.
By hell fire and frozen fields
20 Men shall die 12 Women shall die.
It all begins now, the beginning of the end."

"Ah..ha..ha..." Asa re-read the ominous message. "K-kinda reminds me of one of those scary chain-mail letters you get on you're cellphone..." She looked at her COMP then closed it, stuffing it into her coat pocket. "Wonder what it means..." She said absentmindedly as her eyes wandered to a street vendor selling and assortment of chocolates.

Will was starting to dose off on the park bench, when he woke up to a blood curdling scream, "The hell was that?" he jumped off his seat only to look around and see a group of people running from his right, they were yelling, screaming, and crying. He managed to make out a few words, "Demon," "Hell," "Jack," and the one that he took to heart, "RUN". HE grabbed everything he had on him and took off, he was a fast runner, it was kinda suprising he never tried for a team, but most the people he had to run from where on the teams, so it didn't matter.

He stopped once he thought he was safe, he was separated from everyone else, so it was Will's hope that whatever was after the group would continue chasing the group. "Damn people bringing danger to me...I just wanted a nap in the park while I waited to go home." He let out a sigh.

Riku was fiddling with the COMP again when he net was cut off abruptly. "Huh?" He checked his router. Everything seemed to be fine "Weird. I'll just have to send him a text then." He put the COMP into his pocket without thinking and flipped open his phone and noticed there was no signal. "What?" A bit after that, all the power in his house went out. "You've got to be kidding me!" Riku stepped outside and heard a commotion coming from far away. "What's going on? Is it because of the gas?" A group of people ran down the street perpendicular to his. One person turned the corner onto his street and broke off from the group. He stopped to catch his breath. Riku ran over to see what was happening. "Hey! Are you okay? What's going on out here?"

OOC : THIS SHALL NOT DIE!!!! Also, speeding things on a bit
Also, speeding things up a bit.
"What the hell... gas leak? Oh great. 5 minutes outside today and it turns out we might die." Marakov said to himself, pessimistically. After being discharged from the army for 'assaulting a lieutenant on the front', then saving his regiment from a surprise assault from the terrorrist cell, he was dumped outside USA and suspended from going back, he took refuge in tokyo.
After walking outside, as the internet and phone went in his house, he looked for a phone box. Instead, he found a strange looking COMP lying on the ground. A devout follower of the 'finders keepers', he picked it up, and starting fiddling with it, remembering they can go talk to others. Strangely, though, something came out of it.
A huge bear, in a dark green fur, with a crown of red on its head matched Marakovs height. And then the creature boomed a low voice to Marakov.
"If I defeat you, I will be free! If you defeat me, I shall sign the contract. Let battle commence!" The bear shouted, then went to punch Marakov, hitting him in the stomach. Marakov took a step back, and stood surprised.
Luckily, the Americans forgot to confiscate his weapons as he was deported. Pulling out a pistol, marakov grunted. "my turn."

A shot rang out. Then another, then another. The bear staggered back. Three more shots rang through the air, and the bear fell onto the floor.
"Well met, human. I...I agree. Good luck, human. I am Gemneva, by the way."
"Agree to what? What the fuck is going on?"
The bear, Gemneva, then disappeared into the COMP in a flash of bright light. Stunned by this, Marakov pocketed the device. I'm going mad he thought to himself. That's it. That's all. A moment of imagination. He then walked on.

(OoC: Do not assume your gun will work so well on anything else. Also, I don't think it was close to dying )

Will turned to see a local run over to him, "I havn't the slightest idea whats going on..." he was trying to catch his breath, "...I...I was in the park, people screamed words...caught my attention, I ran." he flopped on his butt then continued to take deep breaths. "Why are you here?"

(OoC: It's more of a casual RP. lol)

"This is my house," Riku said and hooked a thumb over his shoulder. "The power's out but the drinks in my fridge should still be cold if you want something. You look tired." He noticed the COMP in the man's hand. "You into games too?" Riku asked. "I found a weird COMP recently." He took it out of his pocket. "I've been having some trouble getting this one to work. So far I've only been able to access the mail client. I got this odd message about how someone will be coming and some people will die." He shook his head in confusion. He wondered if the people were really running from the gas leak. Could the mail be real?

Asa was looking down at her COMP with wide eyes. It was doing something weird, numbers were scrolling down the screens at a rapid pace. "What's going on!?" She yelled as more and more people ran past her. Suddenly, a line of text appeared on the screen of the COMP

'Demon Summoning Program Start-up_'

"Wh-wha...?!" She stared closely at her COMP and after a few seconds, another line of text appeared on the screen. It read:

'Peaceful days are over_

Lets survive_'

"What the hell is going on he-AH!!" Asa jumped back as a winged humanoid creature appeared in front of her. When Asa got a good look at it, it looked much like a naked blond girl covered in belts with white feathery wings. She blinked up at the glowing figure.

"My name is Angel. If I defeat you in combat, I shall be free, but if you succeed, then I shall make a contract with you. Prepare yourself, human." The angel said in a soft, but clear voice. She flapped her wings and her hands began to glow a bright blue.

"AHHHH!!!" Asa screamed in terror and jumped to the side just in time as a blue magic missile flew past her head. She's really trying to kill me... She looked up at the floating demon with teary hazel eyes. She's really going to kill me.... Over and over again, she kept thinking the same thing, frozen in place. Then suddenly, something snapped. Asa's eyes narrowed and she gritted her teeth. No. She thought, I want to live! She looked around for anything she could use as a weapon. Anything would do. Frantic, Asa leaped at a nearby tire wrench and picked it up, ready to defend herself. Her small, pale hands clung tightly to the cold steel, her knuckles even whiter still. "I want to live." She mumbled, head down. "I want to live, I want to live I want to LIVE!" She shouted at the angel in front of her then ran head on at the demon, dashing from side to side in an attempt to dodge the magic shot and Hama spells from Angel. Once she was in range, Asa swung her tire wrench into the ribs of the demon, knocking it over and down onto the ground. Asa looked at Angel, panting. One wing was defiantly broken along with a few ribs. She caught her breath and wiped her forehead with the edge of her sleeve, still with a frantic and almost insane look on her face. "I'm sorry but..." Asa walked closer to the angel, letting the tire wrench tap the side of her boots as she slowly stepped forward. "I don't know where you came from, or why you're here....." She looked down at the bloody and broken angel, something clicked inside of her. Like an old movie projector, memories began to flash though her head. Terrible, painful memories. Bloody memories of when she resembled the poor, crumpled creature in front of her. The loud clanging of the steel tire wrench echoed off the concrete walls as it was dropped to the ground, followed by Asa falling to her knees and tears welling up in her eyes. "I-I'm s-so sorry...." She said between gasps for air.

"You've shown me that, not only do you have compassion for others but also that you have the will to survive." The angel looked up at Asa, although she couldn't see her eyes, she could tell that she was looking at her. "I have been defeated fairly, I shall make a contract with you." With those words, Angel disappeared in a bright flash of light leaving Asa kneeling on the ground with bits of blood on her jacket.

Asa stood up and looked around, not really sure of what had just happened, but had the intelligence to realize that she may not be the only one that had to fight for her life. "There's still other people out there." She said to herself then ran off after picking up the bloody tire wrench towards a random house on the street. "Hello? Is anyone here?!" She heard voices in the next room over and ran in to see two boys. "Hey, you two! Are you alright?" It was funny she ask such a question because she looked in way worse shape then any of the boys in the room.

OOC : The gun works well because of the COMP in range, doesn't it?

Marakov fiddled with the COMP and noticed there were no communications on it. Defeated, he stuck it into his pocket.

OK, survival 101, food, shelter, water.
Marakov went looting into some various houses, apologising to those with people in, explaining he was with the Tokyo police. His training helped conceal the lie he was just hungry.

After a few lucky hits, he went into a larger house, noticing a child run into it. Perfect, he thought, as he walked in and knocked on the door. I need some information

(OoC: Yeah, but it doesn't work as well as a gun normally would on things. Say if we fought, you couldn't kill me by just shooting me in the head because the Harmonizer puts us on equal terms.)

A young girl had approached them. "Oh, ah, we- we're fine," Riku said and turned to face the girl. "What happened to you?!" He noticed the blodd on her jacket and the tire wrench she held in her hands. "Please, sit on the couch," he said and motioned to it. "I'll be right back." He dashed into the bathroom to get his first aid kit and ran back. "I know basic first aid. Are you injured somewhere?" He realized he was leaning in too close to her and backed up a bit. He pushed up on his glasses nervously. "I-If you need anything, let me know. I have food and water here." He wanted today to be over. First the gas leak, then the blackout, now there are two strangers in his home. He wished he could go back to being a shut-in.

Asa blinked and did as she was told. She was kinda surprised as to why the boy was freaking out so much then looked down at herself. "Oh." She said with a dumbfounded look. She looked up at the boy as he came rushing back in, leaning too closely to her face however, she didn't flinch nor back away. She was in a state of shock, but was uninjured aside from a few bruises. "This blood.." She started to say, looking up at the boy, "Isn't mine. Sorry....I seem to have gotten it all over your couch." She didn't say anything about the offer of food and water. She had a feeling they would be leaving the house soon enough. "I...I'm sorry for bursting in like that." Asa forced a smile, "It's Hell outside." Pretty damn close anyways. She looked around the room, noticing the other boy, "So...uhm...what's your guy's names?" She asked, pulling at her fingers a bit.

Will had remained silent for the longest time, mostly due to him being frightened and then being in a strangers house with the electricity off. Why is this happening? whats going on? what was with the creepy message? I have a headache... His mind was racing, but like usual, a few choice words got his attention, and like before, they were the words he didn't want to hear.

"This blood..Isn't mine."

Will cringed, "You...you killed someone?" he jumped away from the others and looked at them both, panic clearly displayed in his eyes and his shaking legs, his back was against the wall as his hand was vainly searching for anything he could use as a weapon to comfort himself. "I-I-I-I'm William a-a-and I-I-I-I..." He fell on his knees, "I am scared shitless right now... he looked at the other two, "am I going to die?" defeat writen all over his face.

"Whoa!" Riku exclaimed when the boy calling himself William fell to his knees. "Hey, man. Just calm down. Just take a minute...and chill."
Feminine laughter began to echo through the room. Riku looked around, trying to locate the source. In all of the commotion, he had dropped the COMP and there were strange characters being displayed on it. Suddenly, a woman appeared in a blinding light. She had pale skin with long blue hair. She was wearing a white robe and there seemed to be snow swirling about her.
"I am Yuki Jyorou. Someone mentioned the cold? If I defeat you, I will be free!" She lunged at Riku, who fell backwards into the kitchen.
Weapon...Weapon...Anything! His mind was racing frantically. His eye fell on the expensive knife set his parents loved so much. Yuki saw what he was looking at and conjured ice spikes and threw them at him. He had to run away from the knives to dodge the spikes.
"Yuki Jyorou...a demonic woman with control over ice...I've read about you," Riku said, panting.
"Have you now?" Yuki flicked her hair over her shoulder and smiled playfully.
"Yeah, you take joy in freezing and killing humans. And you ask travelers to hold a baby that gets gradually heavier, killing them if they drop it." As he was talking, he was slowly circling back towards the knives. "But if they are able to hold it..." He grabbed a knife and flung it at her. "You'll give them your power!" She dodged the knife but he had already grabbed another and charged at her. He sliced and she dodged backwards, but not fast enough. The knife tore a long gash in her midsection.
"Impossible! How can a human be on equal terms with me?!" She went to summon more ice but found the knife lodged in her chest. "In-Inconceivable...." Riku stood from where he had thrown the knife and watched her. "As dictated by our laws, I will form a pact with you. Strong, smart, and now that I look at you....a little handsome." She smiled. "I could do worse than partner with you." She vanished into the COMP.
Riku picked up the COMP and walked back into the room. "Sorry about that. I'm Riku. Riku Shirogane." Truth be told, he was as scared as William was right now. But for some reason, he didn't know how to express that fear. He kept hoping this was all a dream and he would wake up soon.

Asa looked up at Riku and pointed at her while turning her gaze at Will. "I didn't kill anyone. I'm not a murderer. The same thing happened to me and I had to beat her with a tire wrench. Now, if you have one of these," Asa showed them her white COMP, "The same thing that happened to me and Riku here will most likely happen to you, so I suggest you grab something to whack it when it comes through." She huffed and sat back in the couch, letting the cushions swallow her.

"Makes sense to me," Riku said and looked at Will. "But I wonder..." He began fiddling with the COMP. It was then that his knees buckled and he fell to the ground. He was shaking all over. "Th-This d-d-d-emon business is kinda sc-sc-scary, huh?" He took few moment to regain a semblance of composure and rose to his feet. He pushed up on his glasses and looked at the COMP again. "We're partners now, Yuki." He accessed the Demon menu on the COMP and sure enough, her image was displayed. He clicked her image and there was a Summon option. "Here goes."
Yuki Jyorou appeared from the COMP in a flash. "I was wondering when you'd call me. Didn't think it'd be so soon," she said with a cold smile. "Did you miss me?"
"Something like that," he turned to William. "Be ready to defend yourself. If something does show up. We've got your back."

"...Crap..." After hearing their words Will pulled his comp from his pocket and looked at it anxiously, it lit up as expected. "Please don't be big, please don't be strong..." he was mumbling his current wish for a weakling. he closed his eyes, when he opened them he saw a Kobold, not exactly what he was imagining, but it was better then a giant fly of death he was fearing.

It grunted, looked at Will with hungry eyes then spoke, "If I eat you then I will be free." It lunged at Will swinging with its club like object.

"Oh come on! they get killed if they lost, I get eaten?!" He ducked and saved himself from a direct head shot, How did I avoid that? While questioning this, he was distracted, he took a direct thrust to his sholder. He saw it coming but couldn't move, he closed his eyes waiting for the bitter sweet coldness of death.

"Ooof!" he was shoved back, did I just survive that? Both Will and the Kobold were very confused, however this near death experiance broke something in Will.

"I...I...I WANT TO LIVE!" Will lunged at the beast snatching its weapon from him and started bashing the poor beasts limbs, cracks and blood splattering was all that Will could hear. He finally stopped and looked at the crippled demon.

"You are as savage as us, you are now my master." Kobold vanished, and with him his weapon and the mess that Will made from him.

"I...I...I..." Tears filled his eyes as he feel to his knees, he started to bawl.

Asa sighed "Eaten, killed. You die either way." After poor Will had smashed the little Kobold to a bloody pulp Asa just looked at him. "I wonder if anything else will pop out of them?" She wondered out loud, indicating the COMPs. Suddenly she blinked at Will then turned and looked at Riku. "Oi, oi. Either I'm losing it...which you really can't blame me for....or you guys have a floating number above your heads..." She pointed to a 1 above Will's head. "Wussat?!"

Riku looked at Asa and gasped. "You have it too. Yours also says 1. What the hell? Yuki?" He turned to his partner in search of answers.
She shook her head. "You're supposed to be the smart one," she said with a laugh.
"Ugh, jeez," was all Riku could say. He had no idea what was going on. How did he suddenly become comfortable with a demon in his house? Were more going to pop out and attack? Then it dawned on him. Is this the real reason for the lockdown?! Will anywhere be safe in Tokyo anymore? "M-Maybe we should stick together for a bit," he said and pushed up on his glasses. "Maybe we can just stay here for awhile and nothing weird will happen."

"No-one? Hmmmm...." Marakov shot the door handle.

Asa looked up at Riku and nodded. "That might be a good idea. If anything, we can help each other stay alive." Suddenly it dawned on her that she hadn't told the boys her name. She stood up and bowed at Riku and Will, "By the way, my name is Asa Yukimura." She smiled sweetly at them, "And this is my contracted demon." She said as she used the demon summoning program on her COMP to summon Angel. The belt clad demon did something close to a floating courtsy, "Pleased to meet you all, my name is Angel. When you need me to, I am able to heal your wounds so feel free to ask."

Will looked over Asa's demon, "Why is the angel dressed like a whore?" It appeared that Will had all but gotten over the incident minuites earlier, and now the biggest issue he could think of was why the holy seeming demon was dressed the worse. He looked above the other two andoticed the number, "Uhh...ya thats kinda weird..." He got up and looked out the window, "Hey, Hey, Hey, that guy has a..." Will fell silent and his face grew pale as he watched a man with a zero above his head get frozen solid and then shatter. "I think I know what the numbers mean..." he fell on his butt again, "This sucks..."

(OoC: devex3, are you talking about my house you're busting into? Cause the door's been open if you are. Dirus didn't bother closing it when he rushed in.)

"Oh snap," Riku said at William's whore comment. "He got you." He noticed William looking at something outside the window then grow pale. He went to go look but didn't see anything out of the ordinary besides ice on the ground. "That's odd, snow isn't usually snow this time of year." He turned to William. "Anyways, what are those numbers for? Did you figure it out?"

Asa smirked, "You know, calling the only demon kind enough to offer healing powers a whore isn't the smartest thing you could have done."
"Jerk." Angel huffed and returned to Asa's COMP.
"What she said." Asa said when her demon had gone then walked over to the window where everyone seemed to be gathering. "Whatcha see?!" She asked, hopping up and down a bit.

OOC : OK then ignore the part of breaking in.

"Shit!" Marakov said out loud ; he noticed just before going into the house, someone attacked him from behind. Or would have, but he froze, and shattered inches away from marakov. Don't want to meet whatever did that... He said, and looked about for what done that, with a back to the wall, gun pulled out.

"I saw a guy, with a zero above his head...I think when the time runs out..." Will was starting to have a hard time talking, "...You die..." He looked back at the others, then gazed at the numbers above their heads, "We are all supposed to die when the number ticks down to zero, and we are only at one..." he let out a depressing sigh, "I hope it's fast." He sat down on the floor, his back against the wall under the window.

"I'd rather it not be at all," Riku said. "Are we just supposed to lie down and accept our deaths?" He took a moment and mustered up his courage before speaking again. "Not me. With our demons, we can fight this and survive. That should be our top priority." He heard a crash from the entrance room. He ran to find an older man with a gun standing against his wall. "Guys! There's someone here!" he called to the others. Yuki Jyorou joined him at his side.
"Who are you?" Riku asked. "What are you doing here? This is my house and if you're going to cause trouble, I'll be forced to stop you." Though he sounded tough, his knees were shaking. If that guy decided to use his gun, it'd be game over. But wait, his number is 1 right? Does that mean he won't die today no matter what? He wasn't sure. All he knew was he was still really scared.

"Why on earth did you just confront someone who has a gun like that, even if you have a demon..." Will was muttering to himself, although the ending was pretty loud. Demon...his demon...I have a demon? Will flipped open his comp and quickly wen throguh the options, he eventually found Kobold. If that guy with the gun tries anything, I press the button... Will watched anxiously to see how the next events would unfold, sweat glistening down his face.

Asa bounced into the room after Riku and looked at the man with the gun. "Just because no one answers the door doesn't mean no one is home and shooting it and waltzing in is an offence of breaking and entering." She placed her hands on her hips and leaned to one side, making a 'pff' sound as she blew her bangs out of her face, "And I dunno about you, but I'm not in the greatest mood at the moment. I don't give a damn if you have a gun." She huffed. Normally, Asa was a bright, cheery and well mannered girl but because of the events that have come to pass and with the premonition on the ones that have yet to come to pass, she was, by all means what a man would call pmsing.

OOC : pmsing?
btw, if this is going to follow on from the storyline but seperately, how is it going to pan out? I mean, if the hero of the game allies with naoya and kaido, things will go differently than with the non-jehovah witness girl. And if keisuke isn't stopped with the judge dredd bird, then that'll have an effect as well.
IC :

"OK, I don't really give a sh-- what the fuck are they?" Marakov started, then noticed the creatures floating about the rooms. He took a step back, and tried to get out of the building, not wanting to get involved with what was going on. At the moment he turned around, he last minute avoided a blow to the head from a club of a huge beige-ish creature, followed by a couple of red dogs.

"What the fuck is going on!?" Marakov shouted, backing into the crowd of kids and monsters, hoping that as they didnt attack straight away, he probably will have a better chance with them.

Asa blinked at the weird man as he left the house and started kicking and screaming like a little kid in a croud of people. She huffed and shut the door then turned around to the two boys behind her. "Well! That was interesting!" She laughed a bit then slumped against the door, holding her forehead. After a moment, Asa looked up at Riku, "Can I use your shower, please?" She asked.

"Uh, right," Riku said after a moment. "Head upstairs and it's the first door on the right." He thought of something. "Check to see if the water's still running first. They've already cut us off from the rest of the world and the electricity's down. Don't be surprised if water's out too." He turned back to the man in front of him. "As for you...Demons have invaded Tokyo it seems. But some have been kind enough to lend us their assistance. Do you have a COMP? If so, your life could be in danger."

Asa nodded and walked up the staircase leading to the bathroom on the second floor. She opened the bathroom door and entered then tried to turn on the tap for the shower. It works! She thought in excitement and proceeded to undress and take a shower.

Will let out a sigh as the events with the man holding a gun didn't escalade. "Well that was close..." he muttered aloud. He then stood just out the door and looked around, it had seemed like the terror for the day was coming to an end. He could no longer hear screaming in the distance, weither it was for the better or worse. "Uhm...Can we stay here for a while?" Will was being hesitant in asking Riku, "I mean, I don't want to be a burden or anything..."

"My parents are away on business," Riku said. "I don't mind you staying here for now as long as everyone stays cool." Yuki Jyorou laughed. "No pun intended," he said to her. "So for now we all have a 1, right? I think that means we're okay but we need to be ready for anything tomorrow. For now, make yourselves at home." He turned to leave. "My room with all my gear is on the second floor, last door on the left, if you need me." He went upstairs, followed by Yuki.
"Today's not over yet," he said more to himself than to her once they were in his room. "The mail on the COMP said 20 would die. We saw a couple out the window but that was just the beginning. We can't let our guard down."

After a quick shower Asa walked out of the bathroom in nothing but a pink towel. Her still wet hair clung to her neck and shoulders, although the rest of her body was dry. She had always hated drying her hair in the bathroom as well as making one of those stupid looking towel hats to dry her hair like most girls do. The cold feeling of her wet hair on her soft skin had always cooled her off from a hot shower and relaxed her. Asa blinked at Riku who was just coming up the stairs. "This might be asking too much coming from a girl you just met but...Do you have any shirts I can borrow?" She asked politely.

"Oh yeah, no pr-" Riku stopped his sentence when he turned around and saw that Asa was only wearing a towel. He blushed a little and pushed up on his glasses nervously. "No problem. I don't know if I have anything your, uh, size." He mentally kicked himself. "But you're welcome to look at what I have." He opened the door to his room and went to his closet. "All my stuff is here. Unfortunately my parents took the majority of their wardrobe with them on their trip so hopefully you find something you can use here."

Asa followed Riku into his room to look in his closet. She found a big white dress shirt and took it off of it's hanger. "This should do." She said with a small smile. "Thanks!" With that, Asa left Riku's room and went back into the bathroom. Moments later, she came out wearing nothing but a pair of panties and Riku's dress shirt that acted more like a dress for her. Asa trotted down the stairs and sat down on the couch. Then after a few moments sighed. "Not much to do when the electricity isn't working..." Mumbling and grumbling it took her a moment to realize that Will was still in the room too. She looked at him, "Any suggestions? It'll be dark soon so we can't really see well enough to do anything."

OOC: Hm...Should I join up with you guys or just walk around until I run into you? BTW I've already signed up, unless I was too late for it?

(OoC:Post as you see fit, just don't go barging into peoples houses, lol. We are currently in Satou's characters house. Also I will post my post later today. I swear.)

((*Looks at Omnial skeptically.* Mmhmm. ))

(OoC: dangit, missed it by a few minuites...)

Will was sitting silently, on the floor, knees up, almost in the fedal position. "I don't want to do anything but wake up...this makes no sense...Where is the cops? where is the army? where is the other..." he stopped for a second then looked at his comp. Demons... The thought left a sicking after taste even in his mind. He slowly urched over till he was lying on his side, "I'm sorry...My mind is not meant to tolerate life, death, demons and chaos." his eyes had bags under them, all that had happened had deeply troubled him. How can they all just act like nothing has happened? This isn't normal! Why am I the only one scared? Are they humans even? He tilted his comp so as to let its light hit Asa, he looked her over for a bit trying to determine if she was human, then it hit him. She was a girl. Will blushed, closed his comp and turned the other way.

Asa continued to stare at Will after hugging a pillow to her chest . "Will...as much as I hate to say it, this isn't a dream It's actually happening." She lifted her bare feet up onto the couch and looked down at her toes. "I-I don't thi-ink any o-of us are m-meant to tolerate such t-things..." Tears had begun to fill her eyes and fall down her soft, pale cheeks. She inhaled sharply, making a quiet sqweeking noise. "I'm scared...I'm so scared....We could die at any time....That's enough to make anyone go crazy..." Asa clenched the sides of her pillow tightly, crushing it against her body. Her shoulders had begun to tremble as she cried quietly. "I don't know what to do...and I don't know what will happen to us...but," She looked up and glanced at Will with a teary eyed smile. "I do know that as long as I'm with you and Riku...I'm not going to be alone anymore....and if we do happen to die, we'll all be together in the end." Asa wiped a tear from her eye then flopped onto her side, letting her head rest on the couch cusion. "It's getting late...I guess we should go to sleep. Goodnight, Will."
The first day was finally over, but unfortunatly it was only the beginning. Realizing this, Asa closed her eyes and fell into yet another troubled slumber.

"Hm...Train station's closed...how am I supposed to get back home?" Mike said pulling out his phone "Great, the reception sucks too....It's all your fault..." Mike then looked at his Comp. Mike looked around and wondered how he was going get home. He then moved out of the subway and headed outside, "To the arcade!..." Mike said putting his phone away and hopping on his skateboard. After arriving at the arcade, Mike finds that the place is wrecked. What happened here? Mike then sighed and decided to just skate around for a bit and stay the night at a hotel.
