OOC: How do you have any idea where Mikoto is, may I ask~?
OOC: She was using the vending machine at the time the cannonball struck; the blast radius barely hit her followed by Fukashi pointing straight ahead before she fired her arrow. She thinks she may be running towards the big park where my Juraku goes out on a patrol to look for her.
=====================
Juraku mistakenly treated the cannonball as friendly damage, and yells at Usuki just as her shield is destroyed.
Juraku: "I am on YOUR side, you idiot!"
Juraku can hear Usuki a long ways from her position.
Usuki: "That wasn't me, but at least you found her. Deal with her, and if she's eliminated, her army's morale will surely go down."
Juraku: "It would be an honor, leader."
Juraku temporarily leaves the team behind to deal with Mikoto herself. As she already dodged the returned cannonball, she encounters the short brown haired student with brown eyes, she can feel the energy coming closer with dread, but she is ready to stand her ground.
====================
Turn 6
Team Usuki's progress against a clone army is not going fast enough and is taking a toll on their ammo, but not magic. Juraku left the group under Usuki's orders to deal with the main threat who is behind the control of the clones. Since Usuki's cannon are powerful enough yet still temporary to take out huge clusters, she has a better plan on her shoulders.
Usuki: "If I can take out the power grid somewhere, maybe that will cut off their connection and drop to the ground unconscious."
Fukashi: "Our technology is outdated, we don't have sufficient firepower and anything too advanced on them is nothing, they're living magnets."
Usuki: "We just have to do what we can at best."
Nagashino: "I guess my minigun's getting low, they may have a warehouse full of munitions we can try it out."
Usuki: "That might be, but then they'll use it too once we get there."
One of Usuki's cannonballs proved useless against Mikoto, it just won't work. Perhaps her lifting strength is too much. Usuki then turns her cannons towards another advancing wave of Sisters, instantly cratering them all before they even get into range. The amount of shade in the park is almost completely gone, exposing the team to the sun's rays. She relies on Fukashi to whittle her down until she finds a weakness. Nagashino skips a turn fearing she may not have enough ammo to last another turn.
Usuki: "See if you can hurl some more arrows until we can find a weak spot."
Fukashi: "You got it!"
Fukashi's longbow begins to charge up, she holds her breath and waits for the wind to change to straight ahead.
The charged arrow dealt splash damage with a small explosion on Mikoto, dealing 100 damage.
Fukashi might have found her mark and tells Usuki.
Fukashi: "She's weak to splash damage and charged shots dead-on."
Usuki: "Good, that means my cannon can do far more hurt per shot."
Fukashi: "Hold on, she's gaining some static charge around her! Standby."
Usuki: -_- "This is just pure insanity right there. Team, we must head for a hiding spot someplace, they won't find us for some time."
Nagashino: "Where?"
Usuki: "The little holes dotted around some streets, we can use that to buy some time to get away."
Fukashi: "Yeah, but when I first saw them, they have something on their foreheads, goggles I think."
Usuki: "Then if we remain quiet and slow as a snake, then their goggles won't even hear a single dot."
Team Usuki prepares to unsheathe their weapons, with the captain abandoning her cannon in a ditch, turning it into scrap. They are trying to look for more powerful armaments, but in the meanwhile they have to end a turn save for Juraku.
==============
Juraku is now face-to-face with Mikoto.
Juraku: "Today is the day you will die, piece of worthless trash."
Juraku's spear tightens her grip by buffing herself with defense, awaiting Mikoto's response by ending her turn.
Usuki dealt fatal damage to another wave of 100 Sisters, and Fukashi dealt 100 damage to Mikoto with splash damage.
