KAIJU FIGHT #2

KAIJU FIGHT #2


CONTENT WARNINGS: electrophobia, body horror, death/injury, gore, violence.

β–Ά 001. IT'S A SMALL WORLD AFTER ALL

On the 1st of April, Outsiders will be rudely awakened by the sudden voice of Captain Yamakawa:

"Angels of Lilith. I require your immediate attention. Through your efforts at extracting information from our captives, and intel collected by our intelligence team, we have located the culprits who have stolen our specimens and are conducting illegal experiments. Your mission briefing will arrive shortly. Take caution, however. The Neo Tokyo Meteorological Agency is reporting strange abnormalities in their readings. We will look further into this. For now, stay sharp and be prepared."


The alarm will sound in the base, urging all Outsiders to suit up, bring their weapons and get ready for the mission. A location pin will then be downloaded into their implant, along with an associated mission briefing. The location will lead to an abandoned amusement park that might be familiar to some - Tokyo Disneyland. The brief will report that according to intel, there is an unauthorized research facility hidden within the premises. Outsiders are to locate it, storm it, and seize any lab specimens they can find.

To get to the theme park, characters will be able to take trains to the edge of Neo Tokyo where they can then be transported by armored trucks through what remains of old roads. Eventually, when the terrain becomes too destroyed and overgrown with brush, they’ll have to travel by foot the rest of the way. However, they will have to be careful because it looks like someone has laid out traps. Some of them are designed to capture animals but others are clearly booby traps meant to deter intruders.

From the outside, nothing looks out of the ordinary in this old park - there are classic attractions such as Cinderella’s castle, the Haunted Mansion, Alice’s Teacup ride, the Western River Railroad, and many, many more. While most of the rides are weathered down and no longer functional, there are plenty of old gift shops and carnival game booths with prizes to take home for free (if you don’t mind a really old Minnie Mouse doll).

LILITH was not able to pinpoint exactly where this secret laboratory is hidden within the enormous park, and it’s now up to the Outsiders to find it. All implants will be fitted with a heat-seeking function to allow Outsiders to detect anomalies within the park.

The first part of the mission is simple: Scour the rides and attractions and find the entrance.

Outsiders may encounter more booby traps while searching the park. Traps will range from making parts of attractions and buildings collapse on intruders to more elaborate and high-tech ones like electric fields or explosive traps. Players are more than welcome to come up with their own traps so long as it fits the setting.


β–Ά 002. BOO WHO?

Eventually, Outsiders will find themselves drawn to the Haunted Mansion, where there appear to be several abnormal signs of life. While the mansion would hardly have been scary to anyone but children several hundred years ago, centuries without any sort of maintenance have turned the place into a real nightmare. Pitch darkness, decrepit fake graves that look like they could be real ones, and the mysterious chatter of – is that a ghost? There are flickers of life within the old animatronics, and ever so often you might see a skeleton or zombie twitch. They might even take a swing at an unsuspecting Outsider.

The deeper into the mansion you travel, the more power it appears to have, until the Outsiders reach a door that appears to be heavily guarded by a group of humans holding vicious chimeras on a leash.

Once LILITH receives this intel, the next order is given: Storm the lab immediately!


β–Ά 003. LET'S GECK-GO!

As the Outsiders infiltrate the lab, the air buzzes with electricity and everyone's hair begins to stand on end not from fear but from the sheer amount of energy generated. There may be a lot of machines generating a lot of power and some of it may be spilling excess electricity into the air but this feels different. It feels more potent.

Suddenly, the park comes to life. Old generators buzz to life, staticky music begins to play on the worn out speakers, and the lights begin to flash. From the overgrowth surrounding the park, trees begin to topple over. It is obvious that something is approaching and whatever it is seems to have a lot of energy. From the trees, a giant, gecko-like creature emerges. The air around it sparks and each step it takes generates a wave of electricity that follows the many wires and systems laid out underground.

The energy at the park seems to be drawing the unknown kaiju towards the park and more geckos appear from the forests behind it. They move quickly through the park and climb over the buildings and attractions. When they see a hybrid or a person nearby, they will stun them with their electric fields and try to eat them. As they begin to swarm the park, they go into a feeding frenzy that infects the air around them. Rides begin to spin faster, the music grows louder, lights explode, and the more electricity and power the geckos absorb, the bigger they become when they shed their skins.

One gecko in particular grows faster than the others. This one will keep growing with no apparent end in sight and begins climbing over the highest rides until they topple under its weight. Outsiders will have to avoid collapsing rubble and climb over ruined attractions to take down this kaiju while also stopping the other geckos from growing to the same size.

After dealing with the gecko kaiju for some time without any information, a report will finally come in:
β–ˆ β–ˆ β–ˆ MONSTER DEBRIEF SHEET
NAME: Yamadenki
HEIGHT: 3 metres- unknown (does not stop growing)
WEIGHT: 1,500-70,000 kg
CLASS: Dangerous
LOCATION: Kanto, Japan
ABILITIES: Stores electricity within its body. Uses static electricity to climb up and stick to objects. Can use electric shocks to stun and injure prey. The more energy they absorb, the bigger they grow. When close enough to a human, it kills them by biting into their flesh and absorbing the electrical currents within the cells, disrupting the heart rate and nervous system. It then eats the flesh.
WEAKNESS: Attacks to the head and body. Ice and extreme cold (they are cold blooded).
EXTRA NOTES: Can regrow appendages. Their severed appendages and bodies can retain electricity for an unknown amount of time so proceed with caution.

β–ˆ β–ˆ β–ˆ MISSION OBJECTIVE:
βœ– Cut off the supply of electricity at the park by disabling all generators
βœ– Bring back the Yamadenki (alive or dead) for research purposes
βœ– Bring back the hybrid specimens
βœ– Capture all suspicious persons for interrogation

β–ˆ β–ˆ β–ˆ ATTACHED PHOTO:

The Outsiders will have to cut off all energy supplies to stop feeding the newly named Yamadenki and then defeat them.


β–Ά 004. A RIFT IN SPACE-TIME

"MAYDAY, MAYDAY! Unknown energy signal detected! Reaching maximum output! Our sensors are detecting a breach in the inter-dimensional fabric!"

An hour into battle, Outsiders will receive a sudden warning signal, urging them to complete their mission and eliminate the Yamadenki before it’s too late. All that concentrated energy generated at the park is being corrupted by the Yamadenki, and it’s not long before a rift bursts through from beneath the Haunted Mansion, causing a huge explosion and a rain of rubble and mysterious energy. It’s the first of its kind. A rift has never opened this close to Neo Tokyo!

Energy from the rift seems to affect anyone standing too close to it, transforming any unprotected human into a snarling, groaning, human-reptilian hybrid. These hybrids have electrical qualities similar to the Yamadenki and are just as ferocious. The plugsuits issued by LILITH should protect characters against any nasty transformations (unless there is some damage to them or they have taken them off), but exposure to the rift can still result in increased headaches, vertigo, irritability and impulsiveness.

The rift is growing larger by the minute, and from the other side of it - the growling of a number of unknown beasts can be heard. Even the higher ups within LILITH are anxious about this. The only way to stop the rift is to cut off its power supply.

"Angels of LILITH! We must act fast! Disable all generators and subdue the Kaiju before it’s too late!"



β–Ά 005. AFTERMATH.

As the Outsiders shut down generators and take down the Yamadenki, the rift shrinks in size until finally it closes. Everything at the park goes still now that there is no more power to run things. Some of the corrupted humans and hybrids still linger and will have to be taken down or captured but they are in weakened states now that the rift has closed.

Outsiders will be tasked with capturing the Rift-infected humans who will then be transported to LILITH base for treatment... if they can be treated, that is. Outsiders will also need to report for treatment. Characters may experience the lingering effects of the rift such as the vertigo, headaches, shorter tempers, and impulsive behavior. The LILITH medics aren’t sure what to do other than prescribing bed rest and maybe offering some medication for their headaches. The worst cases may be prescribed sedatives.

Normally, LILITH would order the Outsiders to retrieve specimens from the field but given the events that unfolded, they are told to standby until a special research unit can inspect the area for contamination and give the all clear.


β–Ά 006. AFTERWORD.

Welcome to our second Kaiju log! As before, all prompts are highly encouraged but OOCly optional. ICly, any characters suffering negative effects from the rift will recover within a week, though you are welcome to determine the severity of their symptoms during that time.

Feel free to NPC your characters' fights with the smaller kaijus. The main fight with the largest gecko will be determined via a HP-based system (See below).

All tags in this log count for 2 reward points each. Ask any further questions below!

I've got a fist with your name on it!

[He might've had something else in mind a while ago. Childish, but hey, he's not a man yet, despite what he thinks. Bakugo snarls when he misses and the cup takes him away. Gonna have to wait for it to swing back around again to try for a second swipe. Never mind he could just jump cups easily enough. The cup's going pretty damn quick, enough that he stops spinning the turntable because something groaned a little dangerously a second ago. But the ride's still going strong. They built this place tough.

But Yuji's not the only one miffed they won't go faster and Bakugo glances to some of the other cups, debating on giving them a try. Or joining Yuji in his and double teaming the the turntable. That'd definitely break the cup.]


It's not a G-force machine, Gari Head. You want more speed, we'd have to turn on the fucking roller coaster.

[personal profile] eyescar 2024-04-09 07:52 pm (UTC)(link)
That's mean!

[ If only he'd had any idea whatsoever...

Yuji looks around at all the other teacups and wonders if they can get more speed if they were to play with the electrics, but... Shaking his head, he grabs the wheel of his teacup and grips it, forcing it to slow down with an awkward, squeaking noise before he leans up and over at his friend.

This one is getting a little bit boring, so... ]


Does that mean we should go and get one of the rollercoasters working?

[ Excitement!! ]
blastedass: by blastedass @ dreamwidth (πŸ’₯ My own support department.)

[personal profile] blastedass 2024-04-09 08:05 pm (UTC)(link)
Bite me!

[Snooze you lose. Some future event will do those feelings dirty.

It's not the electrics that could speed this up, but the make of the teacups themselves. Enough centrifugal force and imbalanced weight and the cups will rip right off their moorings. They're not designed for speed, especially with just one person's weight. And lbr, both these guys are solid stacks of muscle.

HA! YUJI SLOWED HIS DOWN FIRST!! BAKUGO WINS!! ... He just let his coast.

Teacups are boring; he implied that earlier!]


Might as well. One of these things should lead to the main power.
eyescar: 🐾 manga (pic#16224283)

[personal profile] eyescar 2024-04-10 01:43 pm (UTC)(link)
No way, you'd taste bad!

[ Yuji's definitely bitten people in a fight before...

Pushing himself up and out of his teacup properly, he slides back over towards the electronics. That was a great reprieve, but at the same time... He wants to do more fun things. He wants to come back once the mission is over and enjoy it as much as he possibly can.

Stretching his arms up, he looks over at his friend and nods. ]


Yeah! Right, let's go. The sooner we do this, the sooner we can get on the real rides.
blastedass: by blastedass @ dreamwidth (πŸ’₯ Endured an all nighter...)

[personal profile] blastedass 2024-04-10 02:45 pm (UTC)(link)
NOT LITERALLY, DAMMIT!!

[Join the Bite My Enemies Club. Though Bakugo's only done it once or twice. Desperation/anger move.

He swings his legs out of the teacup in a vault rather than use the little door like a normal person. Then stalks through the cups on the floor as the entire thing slows down to a halt. All fun aside, this means the place is still running power. As he suspected, considering there's a fucking secret operation going on around here. They need to find a way in.

Arguably down. Bakugo snorts at his cheer, but passes Yuji with a tilt his head head to follow.]


Aim for that one. [And points towards a large roller coaster arching over other attractions.] We can see more of the park from atop it.
eyescar: 🐾 manga (pic#16995542)

[personal profile] eyescar 2024-04-11 07:53 pm (UTC)(link)
Sure, sure.

[ Is he being obtuse on purpose, or is he genuinely this dumb? Who can tell.

Yuji looks around at the electrics before he sighs. As fun as this was, it was kind of a dead end, and now they've got more of the park to investigate and figure out. If they can find their way to the bigger rollercoasters, they can either figure out the electric links or find some sign of the scientists.

Annoying.

Following after Bakugo without hesitation, he nods his head with a little smile. ]


Great idea! Even if it doesn't work, we can totally climb up.
blastedass: by bokunoicons @ tumblr (πŸ’₯ 10 SECONDS TO MELTDOWN!)

[personal profile] blastedass 2024-04-11 08:07 pm (UTC)(link)
[Yuji gets A Look for that agreement, but Bakugo doesn't rag on him further. He's used to Dumbuji.

It was a dead end the moment they did it, but for the smile and laughter he got out of Yuji, the blonde bomber's willing to accept it. At least it answered the question of the park being operational, albeit mostly turned off. That leaves a far more promising result of locating the people who are squirreled away in the park.]


You can probably make it to the top in one jump.

[Given Yuji's strength. Bakugo wouldn't have any trouble either with his Quirk.]

If we get it on, we need to let it run tw-

[-CRACK!!

Bakugo practically vanishes straight down the second Yuji will feel a tug across one ankle. That soft "ting" of a tripwire sends clattering rocks and debris plunging to the bottom of the pit, with the hero's hand white-knuckling on the rim of the new hole.]


WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS?!
eyescar: 🐾 manga (pic#17045296)

[personal profile] eyescar 2024-04-11 08:35 pm (UTC)(link)
It doesn't seem all that high, so...

[ Yeah, he could definitely jump that high, without hesitation. It can't be higher than the twenty stories when he was trying to fight That Guy before, so...

It's a good thing to consider, and he's trying to make the judgement as he walks until, suddenly, there's a tug and a thump, a shift, and then there's a moment of utter whiplash before -

- oh. Oh!

Slipping over, he peers over the edge of the hole with wide eyes to stare at Bakugo, horrified but also... Trying not to laugh.

Sorry buddy. ]


Dandelion! Didn't you know about the traps!

[ C'mon, dude! Leaning down, he offers a hand awkwardly. ]
blastedass: by bokunoicons @ tumblr (πŸ’₯ SNAP!)

[personal profile] blastedass 2024-04-11 08:40 pm (UTC)(link)
[Screw the high jumps! He's looking down at the fucking (shoddy) spikes at the bottom of this shitty pit! Snarling at the very gall of these people to put a fucking trap under his feet, Bakugo slams his other hand onto the rim of the hole, looking like a furious beast for the insult.

Just in time to see Yuji up there, slashed between two obvious emotions.]


Laugh and you're dead.

[He gauges the distance, then pulls with one hand to heft himself and claps onto Yuji's hand with the other.]

I didn't trip shit!

[Right. Traps were an advertised part of the park.]
eyescar: 🐾 manga (pic#16986713)

[personal profile] eyescar 2024-04-11 09:25 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Yuji is really, really trying not to laugh, mostly because he knows Bakugo will bonk him around the head or shout at him if he does give into the urge. Instead of allowing it, he grabs his wrist with his hand and just... Stands up, dragging Bakugo up with him...

You don't weigh as much as a car does, Bakugo, so this is easy. ]


Oh, maybe it was me? I did feel something on my leg...

[ Oops... He puts Bakugo down gently. ]

Sorry?
blastedass: by bokunoicons @ tumblr (πŸ’₯ Just. Got out. Of the shower!)

[personal profile] blastedass 2024-04-11 09:43 pm (UTC)(link)
[That or blast him in the face. Bakugo plants a foot against the wall when he sees Yuji brace before that quick push up with his legs sends him hauling out of the pit and onto his own feet in a quick trot-like motion.

Yeah, Yuji's got some ridiculous strength. He tries to place a percentage of Midoriya's One for All with that power. Midoriya was around 30% when he lifted all those cars with Blackwhip... Damn.

Bakugo's got enough to slam a pretty huge person, but pitching a car without Explosion? Nope!

... currently just sort of dangling here in front of his friend. Glaring death at him.

Put. Him. Down.]


Leg.

[Mostly so he can take a look at Yuji's shin and shoe. But no luck. Any indention a tripwire made is gone.]
eyescar: 🐾 manga (pic#17110299)

[personal profile] eyescar 2024-04-12 04:26 am (UTC)(link)
[ Yuji lowers him oh so gently, lets him settle down on the ground before he shifts and looks down at his leg. Eventually, he lifts it up, to let Bakugo get whatever kind of look at it that he wants to get.

There's no mark, so...

Looking around, Yuji frowns. He doesn't really see anything around him that indicates a trap, other than... The obvious hole in the ground. ]


There's probably more, so we should keep an eye out.

[ Unfortunately, he's... Not doing a good job, lowering himself as low down as he can get, to stare at the spot where he just stepped. ]
blastedass: by bokunoicons @ tumblr (πŸ’₯ Ew. I think it's dead.)

[personal profile] blastedass 2024-04-12 04:33 am (UTC)(link)
[He's not made of glass, dammit! And it's not like he's dangling him by his fucking foot. But that's brushed to the side when Yuji hikes a leg and Bakugo catches him at the heel. A quick inspection and he clicks his tongue in annoyance. Yeah, nothing.

Shit, now he can only assume it was tripwire thanks to Yuji mentioning he felt something against his leg. He lets the guy's limb back down.]


Use your ocular's light to keep a beam at the ground.

[Bakugo arches a brow when he notices Yuji going down in a crouch and lower to look at the area. Seriously? What a goof.

Though the sorcerer will notice the trail end of a wire barely gleaming in the moonlight between the slats of wood. It's slack now thanks to being tripped, but definitely -- if followed -- connected to a mechanism to trigger the floor drop.]
eyescar: 🐾 manga (pic#17110297)

[personal profile] eyescar 2024-04-12 05:04 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Yuji does as he's told because, as always, he's a good boy.

Flopping his leg down, he kicks it out a little with a huff of a sigh.

He's looking around, but... The light must be blinding or something. ]


I really don't see anything. There must've been something... But we can keep looking as we go, right? I'd run us fast, but I don't want to set off another trap.
blastedass: by bokunoicons @ tumblr (πŸ’₯ Aw yeah. Was a fucking blast!)

[personal profile] blastedass 2024-04-12 05:16 pm (UTC)(link)
[Look, most people aren't used to having a light shining out of their eye! But if they can project shit from their oculars, then technically "flashlight beam" should be an option. At least it's a theory...]

Whatever. It's already sprung. [The tripwire could be anywhere once snapped. Bakugo looks up at the stalls and attractions.] Hmph. We'll just stay off the ground.

[Then grabs onto the nearest stall post and jumps+hauls himself up into a quick flip to land on the roof of it.] You said you jumped buildings before, right?
eyescar: 🐯 anime (pic#16062315)

[personal profile] eyescar 2024-04-14 04:32 pm (UTC)(link)
[ In theory... Yuji looks a little disappointed by his failure, and sighs, crossing his arms. He had a while of doing good at this kind of tracking stuff down sort of thing, but this isn't going well for him at all. ]

Yeah? Good idea.

[ Bakugo is full of them. Yuji nods, looking at the building before he bends down and leaps up to stand on top of it, without hesitation, looking as if it barely took any energy at all. ]

There'll be no traps up here?
blastedass: by blastedass @ dreamwidth (πŸ’₯ You and me.)

[personal profile] blastedass 2024-04-14 04:55 pm (UTC)(link)
[Get over it. Failures happen. Get up, learn from it, and move forward, crushing anything else that wants to repeat the failure from the past. Bakugo doesn't want to risk them landing on more traps when they could be going above them.

Yeah. Yuji takes the jump like someone popping up the steps of a building. Ridiculous strength. Bakugo scans around the tops of the stalls and attractions, letting the beam of light from his eye sweep across them. Nothing gleams or stands out up here...]
You ever seen someone booby trap a roof?
eyescar: 🐯 anime (Default)

[personal profile] eyescar 2024-04-14 05:18 pm (UTC)(link)
If I was trying to hide a super secret scientist base, then I'd probably put traps everywhere.

[ That's just how it is, isn't it? He's sure that's the sort of thing that curse users would do, if they needed to. ]
blastedass: by blastedass @ dreamwidth (πŸ’₯ Hmph. No sweat.)

[personal profile] blastedass 2024-04-14 05:30 pm (UTC)(link)
Then watch your step.

[Bakugo doubts there would be as many traps up here, since more people would go running along the tops of stalls and attractions, but Yuji makes a good point.

Also they have to mind their footing, since stalls and vendor stands usually have... tarpy? coverings. Hit the rails and rims, boys.]
eyescar: 🐾 manga (pic#16016001)

[personal profile] eyescar 2024-04-14 06:32 pm (UTC)(link)
I am, I am!

[ Yuji walks forward carefully, head tilted as he peers along the rooftops. There don't seem to be any wires, and it's not like they could build a pit up here, so... ]

If anything happens, we'll be able to handle it.
blastedass: by blastedass @ dreamwidth (πŸ’₯ Come on!! Seriously?!)

[personal profile] blastedass 2024-04-14 06:54 pm (UTC)(link)
[Honestly the main risk here is a misstep and falling through the roof into an attraction or tearing into a vendor stall. Bakugo isn't using his explosions because he doesn't want to alert any scout who might be on patrol.]

Duh. We can take out whatever these assholes throw at us.
eyescar: 🐾 manga (pic#16886655)

[personal profile] eyescar 2024-04-14 06:57 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Look at dandelion go, being all confident... Yuji grins, looking like he might go for a fist bump if they're not careful. ]

Yeah! And that last trap was barely anything anyway!
blastedass: by bokunoicons @ tumblr (πŸ’₯ Ready the grenades.)

[personal profile] blastedass 2024-04-14 07:05 pm (UTC)(link)
[You think this is the first time he's jumped building tops? Ha! He trained on this shit even as a kid, walking branches and logs in the forest (only slipping and falling a few times, to one disastrous result...) and then further training at U.A. and the obstacle courses.]

Cliche pitfall.

[The coaster's closer now and Bakugo leaps from the last line of buildings before catching onto a lamp post and perching there, anchored by one arm and his feet. Gives him space to lean out and scan around without hitting the ground yet.]

Don't these places have a damn kiosk...
eyescar: 🐯 anime (pic#16062315)

[personal profile] eyescar 2024-04-15 05:08 pm (UTC)(link)
Says the guy that fell into it.

[ Because of Yuji, but that ain't the point! He totally deserves the bonk that's coming. ]

There must be something nearby the main portion of the ride... There's where people line up, so the main workspace must be over to the side.
blastedass: by bokunoicons @ tumblr (πŸ’₯ Don't go spouting that shit at me.)

[personal profile] blastedass 2024-04-15 09:37 pm (UTC)(link)
I CAUGHT THE LEDGE!!

[Rawr! Bakugo jumps off the lamp post and lands near the front of the ride. No line, obviously, so they can walk right up. But like Yuji said, the main workspace is to the side, so he heads there, looking for the power breaker or the electric box like the teacup ride before.]

Over here.

[The controls are over where the cars leave the "station" but the electrics are away out of sight.]
