Seeing that the group was moving on and that Lapis still hasn't gotten out of her crystal dome, Red tried to gesture over to the crystallized dome, feeling as if they shouldn't leave the masked girl behind.

"Silly, this is no time to be sewing. Put that stuff back up," he said, basically saying what Naoya was saying in a slightly more mean way, I guess.
Master Aqua said:
Aqua began to head out with the group, knowing they probably would find little out there. Still, it was better than sitting around doing nothing while waiting in a dangerous location. She began to walk to the others, moving over by Shiki when he spoke to her. "She never told you? Well, we actually met during... a murder game," she said, glancing away for a moment. "She is a bit unapproachable, but murder games tend to have a way of making the survivors unite whether they want to or not." She paused before asking, "How did you meet Aoko?"
"How did I meet Sensei? Well... it was a long time ago, really," Shiki mused, looking up and putting a hand to his chin in deep thought, "I'm surprised I even remember it as well as I do. I must have been... like, eight or nine back then? Maybe seven years old? I was put in the hospital after a certain... incident gave me my Mystic Eyes, along with a nasty scar on my chest, and for a brief period, chronic anemia. One day, I decided to run off, sick of the cramped bedroom, and I was just sitting there, minding my own business, and then..."
"Hey, you. It's dangerous to be sitting there like that. You might get kicked."
"... Huh? Kicked? By who?"
"Isn't it obvious, stupid? Who else is here but me and you?"
It was a long time ago. An event that, perhaps for as long as Shiki would live, he would never forget.
"She taught me a bunch of valuable lessons, like how important life was, as well as treasured memories, places, and other stuff like that. Even if she didn't stay for long, only visiting for a few days before her job at the Association called for her, I never forgot the values she taught me. Life is something that often goes underappreciated pretty easily, wouldn't you agree?" He asked Aqua somewhat distantly, giving a small, almost sad smile out of nowhere.
"Sensei's really an amazing person... Makes me wonder how she got like that."
"... On another note, I'm surprised she lets you call her by her name. When I was little, she'd get kinda mad when I called her by her name, like she hated it or something. Now, I just call her Sensei because I'm used to it. And... it's fitting."

"Wait, when did she get in there?" Abel walked over to the dome that Lapis had trapped her in end, brought over by Red. How the hell do I ever get past this...? He knocked on the side of the dome to try and get the girl's attention, "Hey, Lapis, you okay?"

Ridley.. Still didn't seem impressed, intrigued, or.. Well.. Even remotely interested in these things. "Huh. Cool, cool. Or, should I say.. 'Hot'." You could practically hear the 'ba dun tss' signifying the bad pun. "As for fighting, well.. I'm not big on it, either, Blondie," she replied to Ace.

It reminded her of Silent Hill. It had to be the silence.
At the sounds of distress coming from inside of the building, Claire had quickly navigated inside to find she had missed the commotion. At the realization at what had happened, Claire found Aqua, smiling gratefully. "I'm glad your okay," she said, honestly clear in her voice. "Gave us quite the fright there. Try not to take another spill like that, all right?" No matter what Shiki or anyone else thought of her, Claire had an obligation to look out for some of the people. Some would die, but perhaps with her help, some would live.
As Aqua began conversing with Shiki, Claire found herself alone-- well, as alone one could be amidst a crowd of confused people. Like she'd been doing ever since she got here, she scanned the group for people she would recognise-- people that would recognise her-- and finally found what she had been dreading. It had been ten years ago for Claire, but she could not forget the face of the girl she had tried to kill. It helped (Well, not really) that she hadn't aged much at all. It was a shocking site, and one that froze the redhead to the spot. How was she here. Was it just another alternate version of her? Hell, hadn't her legs been broken?
Claire hadn't been recognised yet, but she couldn't turn away from the girl. Sophie, was it? A crowd of people stood between them, but Claire was transfixed, feeling hypnotically drawn. She couldn't look away.

"Oh my... Yes! I've said this before! I'm OKAY! Just give me some personal space!" Lapis could be heard yelling this out from inside the crystal dome, but there were hints of... sniffling?
Red knew that they had to get going anyways, and since Pikachu was now awake, he silently gestured for the Pokemon to break that dome.
Jumping up at the dome, Pikachu had a bright aura surround his tail until it appeared as if his tail was now made out of steel. With that set, Pikachu whipped its Iron Tail at the crystal dome.
The attack was enough to shatter the crystal dome to tiny pieces, and then revealing that Lapis was curled up in a fetal position on the ground.
"... h-hey... didn't I just say..." Lapis looked up and was shocked to see that Red and Abel were around. She immediately stood up, trying to hide the fact that she possibly had a moment of emotional weakness.

'Better late than never right?'
After a long week of hunting, going to bars, finding the entry to hell. Dante son of Sparda had arrived at the ruined city of New York armed with his signature weapons and many others. He knew very little on what was going on but thanks to one lovely 'Lady' he had to go investigate. Guess those were the risks involved getting into debt with another Demon hunter. You end up doing their dirty work. Dropping the stand of his motorcycle Dante stood up of the bike and looked around. His blue eyes taking in the damage of the city.
"this place is making hell look inviting" he muttered to himself as he tapped his motorcycle, the black bike was officially out of fuel and since technically it was never the young demon hunters bike he wasn't to fussed dumping it. Though he had no idea what had happened here just that many new and strange people were rumoured to being around. Also a possible Demon or so could be involved. Running a hand through his white hair then adjusting his coat making sure his guns holsters were in place he then walked into the ruined city of New York.
"Time to look around"

Booker- Intro
A lone man wondered the streets of this alternate New York, the city being his home for more than twenty years. He was a rugged man, someone you would be smart to avoid if you pissed him. He was somewhat older, but could still his own in a scrap. In his right hand, a lone large revolver, one with a large enough caliber to take down a person in a single shot. Slung across was a .30 caliber carbine rifle, his weapon of choice when he went to a certain floating city in the sky.
The same city he sold his own daughter to. Annabelle passed away shortly after giving birth to her, and now, Anna was gone as well. The only thing that kept Booker going in this mad world.
Annabelle would've been ashamed of him.
But at the same time, he did the best he could to make things right with his grown daughter. He had embarked on an adventure with her a few months earlier and was eventually put down by her hand in order to stop the future that would've come if Comstock had his way.
Regardless, Booker was confused as to why he was here, and not....dead.
Booker plopped onto the ground and pulled out a cigarette and a lighter, smoking always calmed his nerves.

"Lapis... Listen, I know you don't want to go right now, but we need to move," Abel sighed as he took a few cautious steps towards her, not wanting to upset her. He couldn't risk her running off or attacking, "Trust me, I've been in places like this. Whatever caused all of this damage, it'll be back and probably angry. It's not safe here," He held a hand out to the girl to hold, "Come on, we can keep going together if you want..." Please let this gamble work, please let it work...

Master Aqua
Aqua listened to Shiki's story, her eyes suddenly lighting up. They shined with a golden admiration for her friend. "She really did all of that for you? How wonderful. She must be very important to you. Aoko is a good person. She's always been someone I could rely on personally as well. Back in the murder game I was forced into, I was forced to be a traitor," she began to explain. "It was mind control. I didn't want to kill people but I... had to." Aqua was ashamed to admit it even to this day, but it was the truth. "When I woke up from my trace, I felt sorry for myself." She smiled again. "But Aoko slapped me out of it literally. She took wouldn't let me give up. I owe her a lot for that."
When Claire approached, Aqua gave her a friendly nod. "Oh thank you! I'm pretty sturdy so even had I fell I probably would've been all right." She glanced down at her own hands, holding them up. She had cut them up pretty bad when she gripped onto the rubble and actually hadn't healed them. Aqua was trying to conserve her magic for others and more important matters. "I did get scraped up a little, but that's about it. You still doing okay?" she asked, curious as to why Claire was staring away. Making sure the others were okay was honestly more important to Aqua. Her own wounds didn't matter compared to them.

For a moment, Lapis looked like she was going to attack in some way, a portion of her hair and her eyes now sky blue due to her mark, but then she calmed down, the strange blue color that was associated with her disappearing from her hair and eyes.
"Fine..." she grumbled as she simply walked past the two to catch up with the group, leaving Red absolutely confused as to why she was acting up like that moments earlier. Heck, even Pikachu was confused by this.

Ruby Rose
This demonstration produced another squeal of delight from Ruby, she seemed quite impressed, though, something seemed to be bothering her "Hey... Can you propell us? That's what I liked the most about the Crescent Rose ya know! It helps me move really really fast! I mean REALLY fast! And I don't have to use my semblance at all!" she exclaimed, sounding quite energetic about this prospect... Her words tumbled out of her mouth so fast that she had to take a deep breath afterwards. It seemed her enthusiasm with seeing, and even using new weapons became quite apparant in this particular moment of hers; she had almost completely forgotten they were supposed to be fighting an Arch-demon at some point...
Sophie
Sophie in the meantime, turned away from the conversation for a moment, a strange feeling washing over her, a feeling that she was being watched... Perhaps it was just her paranoia returning, but, she couldn't help but check anyways... And when she did, scanning the crowd around her, an all too familiar face cropped up amongst the crowd; the face of the last person she could remember seeing before the Silent Hill incident ended, and she had woken up from what seemed like an eternal slumber. She wasn't entirely sure of it, but, she could just faintly remember her name; Claire... Yes, that was it, the woman who had nearly killed her, the one who she had tried her best to reason with, though her efforts had been fruitless. For some reason, now, looking at her, she didn't instantly turn away, even if she felt fear welling up inside of her, it wasn't the only emotion she was feeling. She had a feeling what had happened in Silent Hill wasn't entirely Claire's fault... Or, anyone's really. What happened had happened, even if it would stay in her memories forever...

"We're here to kill the Arch-Demon. He's probably got a mountain of things between us and him, though." Frank paused. "A demon known as Akibahara has been using a series of twisted games for his own entertainment and gain. We're here to put a stop to it."

Abel was shocked by her sudden acceptance yet cold attitude towards both him and Red. For a moment, he simply stood there, staring at her back, unable to decide what to do. "What the hell crawled up her ass and died..." The blue-haired teen muttered as he went back to walking with Aqua.

Shiki gave Claire a small look when she had approached Aqua, but said nothing. If she wasn't the same Claire from the Crossed Incident, then technically, he shouldn't be so wary of her. But even still, something about her past and her sensitivity, as well as the supposed familiarity, to the situation and being treated as a Traitor, led Shiki to be naturally somewhat suspicious. Still, he did not act for now, as Claire seemed to be getting along with Aqua just fine, and Sensei wouldn't want him acting up on baseless assumption like that.
"You were... forced to be a Traitor? Well, as long as it was against your own will as you say," Shiki breathed, stretching his arms slightly. Speaking of Traitors... at least Aqua wasn't like the Claire he knew, who had supposedly murdered her own brother and fell in love with his worst enemy. How did that ever fly anyway? "But yeah... Sensei's a good person. I owe a lot to her. Heh... when I was little, she slapped me too. She's a very touchy-feely person in that regard, huh? Well, she slapped me because I cut a tree down to demonstrate my Mystic Eyes, 'cause what I did was pretty thoughtless, but then again, I was just a kid," he said nostalgically, almost laughing lightly, "She's very caring like that. Speaking of which, I wonder when we'll see her. She's not a part of the Coalition either, but she says she has plans that'll involve helping us find that Arch Demon. She's a pretty shrewd one, eh?"
