Kaida traveled around looking at some outfits, trying to get some yellow out of her color scheme. It wasn't that she hated being decked in one color as much, but she wanted a change and the all yellow reminded her too much of her homeworld for her to feel completely comfortable. Now she wasn't bound to one world, she was free, and while she wasn't thinking that intensely about it in the moment the blonde did eventually settle on an outfit she enjoyed. She kind of wanted to lose the full jacket it only because she found herself rolling up the sleeves uncomfortably more than she kept it fully down. But once everything was sorted she headed on back over to the auras. She stared at them for quite some time, but she found herself drawn towards the time aura and she stared at it for a while. She had no idea why, it didn't seem like something she had been completely interested in up until this point. But she felt naturally drawn that way, and she decided to go with that instinct this time and she touched the aura and absorbed it into her. She looked at the rest and immediately went towards speed if only because she knew she leaned on that strength a lot and she wanted to take advantage of it. The final aura she was thinking more about how much she found herself wanting to spellsling a little more. Not as much as a mage type or anything, but enough to feel like she was useful on tat front. She looked between thunder and fire, if only because she thought those two would be the easiest to manage. After long and careful thought, Kaida grabbed her last aura: thunder. The girl turned away with her hands her her new pockets afterwards, the buzz of becoming a master beginning to fade as the realization of the battle ahead began to take over. The girl began making her way towards the portal, she looked to the rest and said, "I'm all set, so I'm gonna head over now. I'll see you on the other side." Kaida gained Time, Speed, and Thunder auras, level 1
Takehiko looked curiously at the new badges they were given before he clipped it onto his zipper on his shirt. He thought it was interesting how this practical item was given time to take shape and have more of an aesthetic appeal. He figured maybe the stars could be sharped enough to quickly be used as a blade if the time was needd. But then the boy quickly distanced himself as the group began walking towards the tunnels. Take only stuck behind the two because he didn't wanna do that thing where three kids walked side by side down a street or something and blocked the entire sidewalk so he trailed behind them, looking back a couple of times just to make sure nothing was going to attempt to attack them from behind. As he did, the boy spoke up,"Why would they put a perfectly good tunnel subway system to waste? Unless the other one is further below ground, you would think this would be better for the weather. And with all the explosions going about you'd think it'd be better to keep something underground to avoid further infrastructure issues. Am I thinking too much about this?" The boy paused to look at the two older boys concerned before he continued, "Cause I feel like I am. Iunno... maybe they have a habit of cave-ins or something. But doesn't this seem a little..." Take walked trying to think of the word, waving his hands around as if somehow he could beckon the word to come to him with such a simple hand gesture before Take snapped his fingers and said, "Predictable if they were hiding underground? Like, you'd think they'd want somewhere we couldn't find them. Like a random apartment in a complex holding way too many kids. Or a retirement home. Iunno, the last place I'd look would be Tuesday night bingo."
I'm on a phone right now so I can't make a long post but they said school shooting. Not mass shooting. A school shooting is when a firearm is discharged within the range of a school vicinity. You started defining mass shootings which are a different bird. I'll respond later with something larger.
Take was glad that for once, he felt like one of the concerns he jumped in on was heard and was going to be addressed. That said, he was a little confused why she specifically had Torrin, Boreas, and himself going. He was a bit grateful though, cause that meant he'd be able to be actively helping out and not just sitting on the sidelines. Though he felt a bit for Aria, he could tell she really wanted to help out wherever she could and it killed her inside a bit to have to keep tabs on herself because she was a princess of heart. Take looked to Aria and Chrono and said, "Can't speak for these two, but I'll be careful. I look forward to your chocolate beverages." Take gave her a thumbs up and then looked over to Torrin and Boreas, from what he knew Boreas seemed to be a pretty stand up individual, and Torrin had kept an eye on Atmos when she was injured. Sure, the realm of darkness thing was something still on the table but he didn't know if that was necessarily bad. It was more of Tinarah's whole experience with the future that threw him off. He just hoped from the bottom of his heart that it was some kind of trick or trap that the Light Chaser planted and not an actual future. But maybe he'd get a chance to learn more about these two.

Take left his form, having a couple of deep breaths as he did so, only to find himself realizing how weak he felt. He thought maybe he'd gain back magic by this point. Though once the clown mentioned it being a magic inhibiting device, he had a good feeling why. He looked to all the others, not sure of their state at this point. And while Thalassa was already trying to find a place for them to rest he felt like it was a bad time to. And Aria just basically took the words out of his mouth. He walked close to Aria and said "I agree with Aria. Even if we're tired, we don't know the danger this could cause left unchecked. I say we try and take care of it before that can happen. Or at least make leads into finding out where the device is."
i'll take 2 ap boosts >>
What the **** **** ****ity **** is mcdelivery
Mora nodded at Cerdic when he offered to carry her again and let him. She kept wincing a bit when they moved and she smiled at them, "Okay. We can do this. I know we can." When they finally got back to the cave, the place seemed untouched. But the core kept sparking with energy slightly as they walked inside. Mora looked at the machine and said weakly, "Is... it's gonna take very long to put back together? Or is the hardest part going to be... going to be the..." Mora felt her body grow so weak there was no strength left for her to be able to move. The girl fell back off of Cerdic and onto the floor. Mora's eyes were open as she looked at all the others around her and managed out, "W-what's...." Upon falling to the ground, because she wasn't able to hide it anymore, it looked like darkness was seeping out of her wound and up towards the sky, there was a moment to ponder before she managed, "I-It's gotta be Ria... I-I guess my wound made him need more darkness... and he already had me marked..." she looked scared as she looked at the others, "J-Just try to get this done..."
When the heartless began popping up, Take made a run for it towards a couple of defenders. He ran down some escape stairs and jumped on back to ground level before running up towards the defenders. The boy held his hand out to summon his keyblade proper and felt almost a floaty feeling in his chest, like he was ready to activate his form Gero had just taught them to use. With a surge, he let it happen. Feeling his body sort of float a moment before a glowing shield formed in his hand and a glowing white aura appeared around him. He bashed the shield a bit to get the defenders attention as he yelled,"Hey, shield-headed freakshows! Come at me!" Take didn't have to wait long for them to steer their attention towards them and the boy used blitz on one before turning his attention towards the other one and stabbing at it to break it as well. Two Icy Cubes decided to make their way towards Take after that and he slashed at the two, taking a deep breath to keep himself from getting "too intense" while there was a crowd around. Take defeated 2 defenders Take defeated 2 icy cubes (blitz was used and he only need 14 ap to destroy defenders cause of paladin) No AP left. 4/6 defenders left 48/50 icy cubes left
Spoiler: i'm very tired I'm putting 30 of my crowns into AP I'll have 7 crowns left. AP- 31 Oh also I wanna equip Sweet Memories and Blessed Thief for Brawl Missions. Thank you for your time.
-claps hands together- This is gonna cause everyone to hate me and I'm bringing this baby back at the most lethal time to do so. Cause mmm this is a hot topic I've never been able to write about and I feel marginally safer with this crowd than my facebook feed. Heh... So I'm pro-gun. I think this isn't... news to anyone who knows me very well? I'm all about the right to protect yourself and the right to bare arms. No, this isn't just "strictly for hunting" like some people specify this is full on "yo i want to have a gun in case, iunno, something happens and I want to protect myself". I'm even for concealed carry, I know a lot of people say it's "dangerous for women" but it's not like concealed carry is a man-only law (if we had any of those oh my god could you imagine the screams?). There are points where I HAVE to draw my line though. I know gun laws are very state-by-state based and I... don't want that to change (I'm not exactly in love with the idea of the federal government having power over certain issues but that's a topic for another day) but it's undeniable at this point that some states it is VERY easy to get guns that are arguably not necessary? I don't think there's a reason for anyone to have a semi-automatic. If anyone has a good argument for it other than "military tho." I'll be very glad to listen but I'm not exactly about that. That said. For some reason people are spreading this common misconception that it's easy to buy a gun? Sure, in some states it's easier. But you can't just walk into a store and say "hey joe how are ya I want 10 of your finest handguns" and handshake it out as you walk out of there. It's a time consuming, money-consuming process that DOES involve a test. I do know that one of the great screams right now on pro-gun side of things is to say "ugh school shooting yet ANOTHER excuse people are going to try and take away our guns" and I'm definitely not on that end of the screams. I think it's an issue that needs to be talked about but unfortunately we are in a day and age where there are just two echo chambers of people screaming at each other and I'm in a weird spot where I can see both of these and I'm not sure how I feel about it yet. I'll say firsthand that the states I tend to have the most knowledge about gunlaws are massachusetts (cause i live here) and florida (cause um... florida's such an odd case). So if my knowledge is a bit... off compared to your state/country it's because of that.
Takehiko removed the cloth from in front of his mouth, breathing in the fresh air as he looked around. He heard Glyde's comment and looked around. As soon as he saw the plume of smoke from the roof of another building, the boy walked over worried and answered,"Yeah, and I think I know which direction she ran."Take kept his hood up and kept his cloth at the ready as he started running in that direction, jumping as carefully as he could from rooftop to rooftop as he scouted the area looking for them. By the time he'd gotten to a roof across the way, the smoke had cleared and... surprisingly there was minimal damage if soot could even count as damage. He looked around a bit worried before his eyes caught Aria, Qamar, and Torrin down below. The boy yelled from the rooftop, "Are you three alright?! We got everyone out! Looks like your chase went about as well as expected whenever we start these kinds of things!" The boy shifted around on the roof carefully as he gave everything a quick once over to make sure no one was going to jump him when he wasn't paying attention.
A soon as they were out, the boy was already running back in. He took the damage and tried shrugging it off as he ran for it. He made his way back up to the top floor to help the remaining people out. The boy stopped when a pillar was breaking down and the family there screamed. Takehiko pulled out his keyblade and used blizzard to keep it from falling over. Then he ran over and grabbed the rest of them telling them to stick with him and keep their heads low. Once they were down, Take sighed out a bit and said, "Floor 10 is clear!"
All y'all AMV editors comin' back who were curious: the video portal works again. Go nuts. But like, not too nuts. Follow rules and stuff.

At a moment where seemingly, Lea was going to end up in trouble, especially since it was clear that this place really truly did not end up being safe to stay at after all, Melus raised her hand up and in a quick gust of wind her harp reformed into her hand. She shifted it violently so it straightened out to be more like a bow and she positioned herself so she was clearly able to fire quickly. Considering how heavy her drawstrings were she wasn't going to pull back to threaten or she might accidentally let loose an arrow anyway. Melus raised an eyebrow at the spanish intruder and spoke up, "And what exactly makes you think we're willing to just sit here and let that happen, SeƱor? We've had enough trouble today and dealt with her fairly quickly. I don't take kindly to this underestimation." x

Pretending the training was acknowledged and Take was excited about this ability and whatnot, that feeling was cut short by the next world and the immediate danger. Take pulled a cloth out of his back and wrapped it around his face quickly. He zipped up his jacket and threw up his hood, leaving his bag outside as he quickly made his way in with a sprint. He was grateful at the very least, no matter how much Atmos tried Take was insisting he keep the jacket specifically because he was constantly thinking about "well what if I end up in a situation where a village is burning down" and he was ever so grateful today was the day for his resourcefulness to come into play. As he pulled down his sleeves, he ran towards the top floor to help out those on top. The boy seemed to be distressingly good at figuring out how to make his way and set his footing around the burning building but there wasn't much he could do about the natural smoke inhalation and burning since he was not as equipped as he would ideally like to be. The boy managed to help clear the path to be able to get the first three people out of there, and he was already ready to run for more. Takehiko went to Floor 10. 12/15 people left on floor 10
