WEEK 4 DAY 2: MISSION

[wonderful_mods]

Mission: Clear noise from all stations.
Time Limit: Long
Noise Plane: Duet
Wall Instructions: Place walls throughout the city. Seal off the school and the dorm.
Wall Rewards: Konohana Sakuya
Reaped Rewards: N/A. Due to the nature of today's mission, the Reapers have been ordered to keep their hands (and their noise) off the Players.
Mission Rewards: Purity Launcher

[Today's mission appears simple on the surface, but it's curious, isn't it? Clearing noise entirely from an area will require a lot of fighting, and just like the first day... pacts. Furthermore, what do they mean by "all stations?" Well, when the Players arrived in town, there was certainly a train station or two...]

Good morning, Grovyle. What's the good word?

[Sauntering up comes the cloaked woman with a friendly smile, and the very familiar accent.]

Yes, my new body is absurd.

[juuichi_yosamu]

Nothing a--

[Grovyle cuts himself off, thinking about that. If her entry fee was her species, that meant that of course she'd find her new form absurd, despite it being easier to actually play in the Game.

...and if that's her entry fee..]

You got your old fee back, then? Or'd they take a second one?

[Still, the fact that the higher ups were at least following SOME of the rules was good news.]

[zebrarhyme_everytime]

I recovered my old fee
But to play again, they took my body.

[Easier? How on earth? She's so much SLOWER on two legs.]

[juuichi_yosamu]

It's not without its benefits, at least.

[Okay, not more EFFICIENT. But at least you can HOLD your pins and use a phone. Which is an arguable improvement.]

...Want past this wall, I've gotta see that you can finish the mission. Wipe out some Noise where I can see it.

[Thankfully, there's plenty of noise flocking around the RGers of this city. Unthankfully, Grovyle knows full well there's something different about the Noise this week - Zecora's not going to be able to clear them out on her own.]

[zebrarhyme_everytime]

Ha, you know that my Pact
Will enable us to act.
You're just doing this to force
Me to use my phone, of course.

[Still chuckling, Zecora steps aside to pull out her phone. She'll admit it -- this IS a lot easier with fingers.]

[shinbunshinobi]

[After receiving Zecora's message, Sasuke arrives. This must be why he had trouble with the Noise Asakura sent at him earlier. Well, not this time.]

You called, Ms. Zebra?

[zebrarhyme_everytime]

[She greets him with a brilliant smile, gesturing to Grovyle's wall.]

"Defeat some Noise where I can see"
Were Grovyle's words to me.
So with my partner at my side
The Noise will find themselves defied.

[juuichi_yosamu]

[And sticking with her partner - or having him immediately on hand - is exactly what Grovyle was looking for. Seems they've learned and adapted to the new rules quite well.

So even before they start erasing, he silently takes down the wall.]

Whoops. Forgot to track this post. Sorry!

[shinbunshinobi]

Then let's get to work.

[Sasuke pulls out his pin Go 2 Hell.]

[zebrarhyme_everytime]

[Zecora hadn't been looking Grovyle's way, and walls are pretty invisible till touched, so... she brushes her cloak open, running a hand down the pins affixed to it with a smile.]

Bring on the noise, bring on the fight!
Out victory will set this right!
