God Yet Lives

"Exactly. Come on, I can help you pick out an outfit."

*She puts an arm around Noctis's waist & steers them towards the closet.*
=================================
*A Garganta opens in front of Mortal. On the other side of it, she can see a Cero Oscuras. A second later, it fires at her. While Senthose is busy setting that up, Lilith Flash Steps to his side & waves a hand. Rods of light pin all of his tentacles to the ground. Lilith then flash steps back a ways, bites her hand, & begins charging a Gran Rey Cero.*

Noct goes along with her, "I'm not so sure about this..."

--

Sab teleports both of them away. Before Mortal can say thanks Sab punches her in the face and teleports back to the ground. Mortal furrows her brow and shoots an Aliento de Fuego at Senthose.

"It'll be great, don't worry."

*She rubs her hand up & down Noctis's side while opening the door to the closet & rummaging around in Noctis's clothes for anything that isn't black or white.*
=======================================
S"I do not appreciate this."

*Senthose is hit with Ceros. When the dust clears, his tentacles quickly regrow, forming a dome around his shredded torso.*

She finds nothing of the sort.

--

Mortal turns her attention to Lilith at this point, shooting an Aliento de Fuego at her. As she is doing this Sab teleported behind her, grabbed her, and teleported her into the stream of fire her dragon was shooting at Lilith. Mortal quickly got out of the way, and patted out the flames on her clothes, "I'm fire resistant."

"Oh yea, that's right... dammit."

Assuming Aroma was simply watching the fight at this point, she found herself suddenly punched in the side of the ribs with surprising ferocity, her attacker using Sonido to attack and disappear in a flash.
Astarte reappeared directly behind Sab and released a powerful blast of lightning from her hands. Knowing that Mortal would probably try and retaliate on Sabs behalf, she fired a blast of lightning at Mortal from each of her wings. After her attacks had been dealt out she disappeared again and reappeared a few dozen metres above everybody else.
She had realized when Senthose first attacked that fighting the others in her unreleased form would have been difficult for her- both because of her own feelings and lack of strength- and so she had released immediately and planned her attack. She hoped Sab and Aroma would be as fragile as she expected and would be now out of the fight.

Enkidu glared back at Aera and momentarily played with the thought of killing her, but decided against it.
"Ungrateful swine..." He muttered under his breath before raising his voice and smiling. "Also, that miasma will knock you around a bit. Physically I mean. You'll only survive and become stronger if you can withstand it."

L"Also, I can absorb and redirect energy."

*To illustrate the point, she draws her Zanpakuto, which releases as it is unsheathed. Aroma had expected to be attacked at some point. Unbeknownst to the others, she had secured a thin line of silk to the top of the mansion. Upon being hit, she instantly Spider-Manned up & began treating the wound. Senthose's tentacle-ball rolls off into the forest, disappearing from view.*
======================================
E"Hrm...how'd you like to wear one of my outfits?"

"I'm not sure I'd fit, actually, I'm positive I won't," Noct said, cupping her chest, "I can't fill out your shirts..."

--

Sab had teleported out of the way, but Mortal was distracted by Aroma spider-manning to avoid the lightning. Shaking it off, Mortal cocked back a fist, and launched it into the air. Her dragon's fist soon materialized and shot out towards Astarte. Before the fist could connect however, Sab appeared on the knuckles of the fist, used its momentum, then lunged at Astarte for a drop kick.

E"I might have something older back here that doesn't fit me anymore...how do you like blue?"
===================================
OOC: I am positive that would just get Sab punched with a giant dragon hand if I didn't think it sounded cool.

*Lightning is shot at Lilith from the trees. She swings Yggdrasil behind her back to absorb it. Once it does, she swings the Zanpakuto at Mortal, who feels a burning around her stomach.*

"Is it navy blue?"

--

Mortal put up a dome of scales, then launched a dragon punch at Lilith.

*Lilith blocks the dragon punch, flapping her wings to block Senthose's sudden back-stab. She swings around to attack him with fire, but he grabs her wrist and points the blaze at Mortal.*
======================================
"Looks like it's somewhere between that and sky blue."

"So... royal blue?"

--

Mortal "Fire resistant" Dulces tanks it, then reaches with an open dragon palm to grab Lilith, and squeeze the life out of her (in a sparring match kind of way).

"It's more of a sapphire, I think."
=========================
*Lililith paralyzes the arm with a couple Six Rod Light Prisons and wriggles out. When the fire clears up, Senthose is in front of the scale dome. He punches, also firing a Bala, to reach through it.*

"Do you have anything darker?"

--

Mortal punches his fist, firing a bala as well.

"I have lots of recently purchased red shirts."
=================================
*As the mighty brofist of light clashes, Senthose draws one of his swords with his other hands & swings it at Mortal's midsection.*

Noct let out a long sigh, "Why don't we just go shopping?"

--

Mortal throws up scales to deflect the sword, then shouts a Rugido at Senthose's face.

Astarte gritted her teeth and side-stepped the kick, bringing a lightning clad backhand slapping into Sab's face. At the same time her wings fired erratic streams of lightning at the roof Aroma was now healing herself on.

"That also sounds fun. Let's go!"
===================================
*Aroma gets behind the chimney. Senthose raises an eyebrow, confused at what shouting at him was supposed to accomplish. He then twists his weapon & slices upwards, towards Mortal's chest/shoulder/neck/face region. Lilith is flying towards Astarte.*

Iris: <That, umm... doesn't sound pleasant, but give it here!>

*Iris takes it back and quickly drinks the other half.*

Sab, still coming off the momentum of the dragon fist, sailed right past the backhand. Stopping herself somewhere behind Astarte, Sab gave the battle field a look over.

Mortal side steps the swing and cocked back her fist to punch Senthose in the face, but before she could she was teleported in front of Lilith, so the fist went sailing at the Soul Reaper's head instead.

--

Noct followed along.

*Lilith ducks & stabs her. Fully expecting to deal with this scale bullshit, she releases her Bankai so the roots bore through them, entangling her & shrouding her in thick vegitation. She is confident that Mortal's attempts to escape will be converted into electricity, but just in case, she also fires a Cero into it. As well, Senthose had immediately fired a Cero at her back, upon noticing that she had teleported.*
================================
*On the boardwalk, Euryale ducks into a clothing store, pulling Noctis with her.*

"I think you would look good in green. Or pink. Or maybe purple. Red has never failed me yet."

Noctis just nodded.

--

Mortal, not expecting to be teleported, gets stabbed, and hit with the ceros, "The fuck just happened?"Furrowing her brow, she swipes her dragon arms a few times to clear a path out of the forest she somehow found herself in.

*Mortal finds she has difficulty moving any part of her body, as there are branches wound around her limbs & torso. Also, she seems to be getting weaker as the forest grows thicker.*
-------------------------------------------
*Outside, Lilith quickly generates balls of flame that swirl around herself, hides them in an invisibility Kido, & begins gathering purple energy behind her. She just waits for someone to try & fuck with her.*
=========================
*Euryale starts pulling t-shirts of various colors off of their shelves and handing them to Noctis.*

"Tell me if you see anything that jumps out at you."

"Okay," Noct said over the steadily growing pile in her arms.

--

Mortal doesn't need to move HER body to move her dragon's, as was previously explained during the sequence when she used the dragon's eyes to scout out Hueco Mundo. That said, she uses dragon claws to cut her free from the branches.

OOC: I call bullshit.

*The branches prove very resistant to moving. For every tiny bit the claws move them, they grow new shoots. They do not scratch.*
----------------------------------------
*Senthose fires a Cero at Lilith, who quickly erects a shield in front of her. Her wings glow purple, signifying that they have taken over the purple Kido. She draws a circular Kido on her side of the shield, which should display Sab's current location.*
==========================
"Alright, that looks like a modest selection. Do you want anything with writing, or a design? Oh, what about new shoes? How much warm weather wear do you have? I bet it's hot in Hell."

"Sab," Mortal said, "You got me into this mess, get me out." Mortal could head a loud "No" from some distance away. With a small sigh Mortal tried an Aliento de Fuego to burn down the forest holding her in place.

--

"Yea, it is probably hot as Hell... in Hell," Noct said with a small smirk, "Anyway, this should be fine, I wear black a lot, in most weather, so heat doesn't really bother me all that much. That said, I wouldn't mind some new sneakers... no matter how many times I clean my old ones I can still see the blood stains."
