>Rufio: Make Him Pay (Open to Everyone)

[thebrick]

"Wh-What?!"

Quickly wrenching his fist free from the wizard's grasp the Orphnoch then glares angrily at him.

"You'd better have a good reason for keeping me from hurting that idiot who tried to attack my Friend!"

[Rain]

"Of course I do," the Dead Apostle Ancestor said, straightening to his full height and loosening his posture slightly. Suddenly, he didn't seem so much like a proud but weakening old man. Rather, he seemed like an old man that had skipped out on the infirmities of age. Not that he had, in full, he could no longer wield the Second Magic as extensively as he once had... but he could still certanily use it if it was needed.

[Mahou Moerin]

"Um... You're welcome!" The pinkette shouted at the woman as he ran off. It wasn't like they'd just saved her life and/or chastity from the hands of a bunch of creepy zombie pirates, after all. Of course she wouldn't show any grati-

"Hey!" the ball of light yelled at Moerin, as though it could tell just what she was thinking. "We've been sent to some kind of Pirate World. We need to figure out where exactly we a-"

"Yes, Navi, you told me earlier." Multiple times, in fact. "Think it might be Pirates of the Carribean. Shame I only saw one of those movies... Hurm."

She stood silently for a while, stroking her chin as she thought about what was going on. She'd been brought here for a reason, after all, just like every other world she'd ended up on. But wh-

"Hey! Look!"

"...God damn it Navi can't you just shu-" ...Oh right. The fairy was currently hovering around Rain and the two newcomers. Should probably say something to them. Better make it cool...

"Um... 'Sup?"

She was awful with first impressions, honestly.

[thebrick]

Mutsuki crossed his arms and looked even angrier in response.

"Well Oji-san?!"

[Vinestar]

"Sup... Is that a shortened term for supper?" Captain Grey asked hopefully, before scowling and shaking her head. "No... of course not..." Irately shaking out thoughts of repast, the dark knight looked at Moe. She looks rather well off for someone that strange looking, as evidenced by her attire. "Greetings, young miss." Kneeling down on one knee, the warrior gave her respect. "It is an honor to be greeted by someone of your rank."

[Addy]

"Hello," the genderbender answered with a smile. "By the sound of it, you are travellers just like us, nice to meet you. My name is... Olga, my friend here is Roy Mustang and by our map we're not in Carribean, but rather Neverland with Hook running around."

[Psyga315]

Nicholas was about to block the punch with his sword, when the Wizard blocked the punch. "Thanks!" Nicholas said, he then scanned the area, searching for that business man. Little did he know, a fairy went and picked up the man in the midst of the fight. He then noticed then net with the trapped kids. He tore open the net with his sword. "You are free now!" He said as the two kids ran away from the net and trying to run out of the ship. Some pirates tried to get in the way, but Nicholas threw his sluggers at them, slashing at them as they fell out of the way.

[Rain]

"That doesn't mean I'm going to tell you, you know," Zelretch said brightly, not giving Mutsuki any indication of what his reasons were. The whatever-he-was-at-this-point could take it on trust that Zelretch had his reasons or he could pretend it was pointless. Probably the same result either way, really: an old man had caught the punch and was getting between him and some sort of vengeance.

---

"Oh, Peter Pan, then," Rain said, leaning against the wall and thinking. Hmm... it didn't seem that the normal people knew who she was, but maybe if they ran into the Lost Boys or whoever... they might be able to accept the fact that there was a blue, jellyish female just sort of... hanging around. Then again, she'd never read Peter Pan and this likely diverged from that anyway. She was fairly certain that Barbossa had not been in that thing, ever.

And Captain Hook probably wasn't Brian Blessed in a panto, so it was automatically less fun than it would have been.

[thebrick]

"Grrr..."

Mutsuki's response was to stomp on the Wizard's toes.

"Oh I'm sorry! I don't know what came over me!"

[Rain]

Zelretch avoided this simple and ridiculously petty attempt at revenge by the mere process of Reinforcing his toes. Not only was his body extremely resilient due to no longer being human, Reinforcement was a simple magic--albeit hard to pull off on somebody else--and he had more than enough mana on hand to raise his foot's durability to the point Mutsuki was vastly more likely to shatter the bones in his foot than harm Zelretch. Of course, this attempt didn't endear him to the Wizard Marshall overly much, so whilst still having to deal with having at the least made his own foot sore, he'd also have to avoid the punch being thrown at his face.

At least he hadn't Reinforce that

[Mahou Moerin]

"Um... Okay, uh..." Confused at how the knight was treating her, Moerin could only stare at her blankly. "Um... Nice to meet you too, I guess."

Thankfully, Olga's explanation about where they were was enough to snap her out of her confusion, if only for a moment. "Hook, huh? Heh, always loved that movie... Oh right, um... Name's Moerin. The walking puddle is Rain, and..."

"Hey!"

"...That's Navi. Don't worry, you get used to her eventually. At least, that's what I'm hoping..."

[thebrick]

As expected, Mutsuki's attempt to stomp on the wizard's toes was a massive failure and only won the Orphnoch a sharp pain on his foot.

"OW!!!"

However, the punch would not be able to connect as Mutsuki saw it coming a split second before impact and instinctually smacked Zel's wrist to the side, managing to avoid getting decked and immediately afterwards; attempted to make a grab for the Wizard's collar with his other hand.

[Rain]

Zelretch allowed himself to be grabbed by the collar--his clothes were remarkably durable, if it was that collar, and if it was his bones then any injury would heal. This was an excellent opportunity to get rid of the person grabbing him, too, since the act of grabbing Zelretch like that would keep them close together for long enough to do one simple thing: get a gemstone out of his pocket and thrust it towards Mutsuki's chest. Who, after all, had taught the Tohsaka to infuse gems with prana? Unlike them, however, the vampire had no qualms about using them casually, since he could make them far quicker.

The end result, though, was that the gem thrust towards Mutsuki's chest detonated with enough force to tear through a Servant's body.

[Vinestar]

"Apologies... I've neglected tointroduce myself." Righting herself up, the dark knight snapped a crisp salute. "I am Grey Verdict, Captain of the Raven Guards." It was clear she held some pride in her position as those hungry and dulled eyes regained a spark of light. "As you were saying... This land is called Carrie Beahnn?"

[stratofarius]

"Something like that." Roy said, turning to Oleg. "I'm not that familiar with this Hook. Who exactly is he?"

-----------------------

"Mutsuki!"

Kios soon stepped through the grey wall, and after a quick analysis, he found his friend being attacke by the wizard. Using the agility of his lizard body, he charged towards the wizard, attempting to tackle him.

[thebrick]

The gem did explode on Mutsuki's body... But Zel would notice something very, very wrong; not only was there no cry of pain or angry, desperate cursing, but mocking, gurgling laughter from a... Bulky, heavily built Humanoid Mushroom monster that had seemingly taken the place of the skinny albino man that sported a slowly regenerating gaping hole on it's chest, the result of the prana-loaded gem. The fresh cavity showed no organs, blood or bone lying inside the beast and what was once a human hand on the Wizard's collar, was replaced by a crab-claw.

"Nice trick gramps, But I'm not that easily defeated!"

The mutant freak then slammed the Wizard to the ground with his crab-claw and then threw him aside like a rag-doll.

[Rain]

(Humiliation, GO. You DID give me permission.)

Not bothering to resist, the Wizard Marshall jumped back onto his feet as soon as he was tossed aside, having used the time to draw a short sword made of gemstones. He showed no trace of injury from the attack, having healed as a result of being a Dead Apostle: time itself was reversed around his body, not just healing but undoing the damage dealt. It was quite strange to behold.

The Old Man of the Jewels considered what the best method to continue was. He could outright vaporise the impudent brat with the sword... but that carried the obvious risk of sinking the ship he was on and it would be annoying to have to prevent drowning. So... once more, he applied Reinforcement to his body, drawing the mana to fuel it from other worlds and rapidly exceeding what even a prodigy like Rin could achieve, stacked atop a Dead Apostle's natural physical superiority to humanity.

And then Zelretch blurred into action. Excessively fast even from Mutsuki's viewpoint, the previously evenly-matched (or apparently evenly matched) abilities now wildly imbalanced due to what could be viewed as a form of cheating, draining power from as many universes as he felt like to power his magecraft. The end result? A blur too fast to have a chance to react to and a gleaming blade that sliced through fungus like butter. The slow regeneration wasn't much good against having the hole widened into a smiley face and limbs sliced off almost casually.

The vampire wasn't done, though: stowing the sword away, he kept up the pace long enough to do three things. The first was to toss the removed limbs away like the trash he considered them. The second was to buff the throwing capabilities of his arms and briefly increase the prana drain. The final action? Mutsuki's limbless trunk was scooped up and launched beyond escape velocity into the heavens. Unless something stopped him, he'd probably come to land elsewhere in the solar system.

[Psyga315]

Well, something did. A rather discoy song was played as a giant blue ball pushed Mutsuki back down to the ground. The ball hit the ship, and exploded in a blue flame. Emerging from the visual flames was a man encased in black spandex with many dots on it, like they were stars. There were tinges of blue as well, such as on the chest, where a strap of blue was on the armor. The figure's helmet was shaped like a meteor, with dark purple eyes underneath.

"Kamen Rider Meteor... I've decided your fate: Death." He said, pointing to the Brotherhood as he swiped where his nose would be with his other hand.

"The fuck is Meteor doing here?" Nicholas muttered as he saw the rider.

[EldritchMermaid]

"I don't know, but I doubt it's good."

[Rain]

"Oh, you recognise this man?" Zelretch asked, once again seeming to be a harmless old man as he ambled back over to stand by Nicholas. He was only mildly put out that the person in the sparkly costume had prevented the nuisance from being launched into the sky, possibly to end up in the sun, but wanted to know who it was that had decided he ought to die. Not that such a thing was easily achievable.

[Psyga315]

"Yeah. He's a good guy from a television show... A jerkass loner, maybe, but he had good intentions... Dunno why he's with Dai-Shocker... Unless..." Nicholas then remembered Lewis with his Diend Driver. "Fuck. It's someone else!" Nicholas said.

"You're quite the learner, Now... learn this!" Meteor said as he showed off a bracelet that was as long as his arm. Nicholas had to do a double take, because he was damn sure that the Meteor Galaxy, Meteor's weapon, wasn't three times as long. There were about nine switches on the bracelet as opposed to the three Nicholas was accustomed to. Meteor then pressed onto the very first switch.

MERCURY, ON! READY?

Nicholas' eyes widen as he heard the Meteor Galaxy say something that wasn't on it originally. Meteor then placed his finger on the touching section of the Galaxy.

OKAY! MERCURY!

Meteor's hand then changed into a miniature version of Mercury. The planet then shot bubbles at Nicholas. As he was confused by what the bubbles were doing, Meteor ran to Nicholas as the bubbles then surrounded him, trapping him in place. Meteor then hit Nicholas several times at a blurring fast speed, hitting directly at the bubbles, hurting Nicholas. Finally, he pulled off one final punch, knocking Nicholas far back and into the waters below. Meteor then turned to the others. "Who's next?" Meteor asked.

[Rain]

"Impudent brats... all so eager to attack the person I have a few questions for," Zelretch said, sighing and walking over to the ship's edge whilst muttering under his breath. It was, most likely, magecraft, and the result was that yet more bubbles floated Nicholas to the water's surface and suspended him there as the vampire turned around to look at the sparkly guy.

"So, do you think that you could beat this old man?"

[Krautman]

MOTHRA! DORATS! GOJIRASAUR!

As the medals swirled around John, a tremendous roar sounded as the Driver shouted in a panicked voice: MOOODOOOLAAA!

John threw back his head and replicated that roar before bringing up his hands in a Queensbury stance and facing Meteor.

"I'm up then, I guess."

[Addy]

The names visibly surprised the book"man".
"Hold on.. Moe? Rain? But you were... How... Why..." she trailed off leaning onto the wall.
Though after a moment the shocked expression changed to a crazed grin and she pushed on her forehead with the base of her palm.
"Hah! This must be it... The world is even more insane!"

[Mahou Moerin]

"Nice to meet you too, Captain Grey," Moerin nodded at the knight, making a mental note of how cute she was. She tried not to show it, though; after all, she can't be having some people she just met thinking she's a perv. "Um... We're in Neverland, actually. Apparently."

She glared at Olga when she showed that she recognised her name. "Oi! I know what you're thinking, and no, I am not the same Moerin from the porn game! Geez, why does everyone think that? There has to be more than one girl called Moerin with magical powers and pink hair out there in the multiverse! And it's not like it's even natural, it's dyed! I'm not some weird pervert, so stop thinking I'm one! Ugh!" Sure, she'd jumped to the wrong conclusion, but... After having to put up with the same misconception in three worlds previously, she really didn't want to put up with it a fourth time.

[Rain]

"You would, however, fit right into one," Rain said, grinning and checking that she was not, in any way, shape, or form, melting. Those slime girls she'd seen at school and stuff occasionally... eugh, couldn't even bother to keep themselves solid, it was disgusting. Not that she paid them much attention, the catgirls and lamias had been far more interesting.

She didn't appear to give a damn that pirate-y woman recognised her name, having not responded in the slightest.

[Addy]

Olga immediately waved hands defensively.
"No, no, no, that's not what I mean!" she loudly proclaimed before dropping her voice to slightly lower than normal "Haven't even heard about that..."
She straightened.
"You see... I have met girls named Rain and Moerin, coming from my homeland and you are quite like them with a couple differences. At first I thought you WERE them, but by your reactions this didn't fit..."
He sighed.
"See how crazy it is? Did you know somebody by the name of Anno? Or Grey.. Star..."
At that last part she dumbfoundly looked at the Captain Grey.

[Krautman]

Etna's Palace

Anny blushed at her owner's touch, smiling and pulling her wings tight.

"Oh, thank you Mistress! I promise I'll make you some whenever you want! And... maybe I'll even make something good enough to earn another meal from you!"

[Deleted]

Western pirates. She'd read about pirates in some of the books she'd 'borrowed' from Patchouli in her mass 'borrowings'. Ever since she'd started her little trip out of Gensokyo and into the multiverse, she'd been trying to make a bit of a collection of interesting stuff. Her current spoils were stored inside her storage spell, a nifty little trick for theft to be sure. And now... well, pirates had treasure and all kinds of stuff, right? So, ideally...

Marisa grinned and pulled her hat on to keep it from blowing off in the breeze. Below her, there were docked ships. Pirate ships. Logically, pirates would be on pirate ships. And one those pirate ships, they would have pirate treasure. And Marisa would fly in and take all that treasure off their hands. And it'd be-

Was that an armored guy fighting a bunch other other people on one of those ships? Marisa didn't actually know what was going on, but... hey, she liked fighting. And it wasn't as is danmaku or spell cards would kill anyone, so it didn't matter if she decided to blast them all. But more importantly, she had to make her entrance sufficiently impressive. And possibly hit one of them in the process.

Marisa angled her broom, and cruised down before positioning herself at the front end of the ship, pulling out the mini-hakkero in the process. The hakkero ignited, magical energy causing it to outright glow.

"Comet 'Burajing Suta!'" she declared. Immediately she was surrounded in a vast, pulsing magical aura. She shot forward... and probably didn't actually hit anyone, though if she did that would be awesome. What she did definitely hit... was the masts of the ship. They toppled and fell, as the spell card deactivated and Marisa turned to face the people on the ship with a wide grin.

"Kirisame Marisa!" she introduced herself, "Badass incident resolver and the second best human in Gensokyo and the girl who's going to kick everyone's ass!"

[EldritchMermaid]

"...You're kidding me."
