[ 01 ]
The creatures at first are quiet as they come into the city. But as more and more of them flood the streets the louder and louder they get. And Homura is sleeping-- the door locked and barred, the windows closed-- inside the back room of a store across from the hospital. She quickly notices two things as she wakes up: the sound of the monsters and the fact that her surroundings have changed. Her first thought is that she walked to another store in her sleep, and her second thought is what on earth is that noise?

Homura approaches the window and peers outside. The moment she does that a lot of them seem to see the motion behind the curtains and so they start to approach. She's instantly awake and transformed; they come closer and closer and then one is trying to smash through the window. Homura backs up and pushes aside the dresser she'd put in front of the door. She moves away with the door shutting behind her just as there is the sound of shattering glass.

And out the front she goes. She has no rifle, the kind of gun she feels most comfortable with-- she's a small girl and the recoil is easier to handle-- but she has a handgun. A handgun and a limited amount of ammunition. Rushing through the changed store she presses her back against the wall and readies her weapon, firing carefully as the monster breaks down the store's door.

[ ooc: starter in prose, feel free to switch to action! ]

She's startled but not entirely surprised-- she's used to explosions. Homura says nothing but just nods. "You lead the way, then."

She nodded back, tersely, and moved to take point. It said a little that she assumed Homura would guard their backs, and if nothing else, Day had a firearm with her. They only needed to make it onto the main street and then down Mercy.

"The bells were ringing just now. Anyone say what that means?"

Day stayed in the middle, she wasn't stupid she knew fighters when she saw them. And these two, even the kid were fighters. Lightning especially, Day wondered if she was a mercenry back in her own world.

"No idea, maybe to tell the time?"

And Homura does take their back, keeping up with both Lightning and Day with little problem.

"It's not the right time to be ringing," she says. "But I don't know why it might be ringing either."

"One more thing to figure out." A monster - small, but brave - skidded out of the shop ahead, apparently having found it disappointingly empty. Lightning considered her rifle, lowered it again, and sent a cluster of Blizzard spells singing towards it instead. Waste not. The lack of recoil didn't exactly hurt, either.

Day's eyebrows raised at the magic but again she said nothing. After all Lightning had done her the favour of not judging or recinding their agreement to live together when she found out Day was a poisoner. So Day would give her the same benifit of the doubt.

And she had to admit it was useful. "It would of been nice of Lara and Oliver to warn us about these things." She grumbled.

"The child didn't warn us either," her voice is quiet, but not unheard. "So I don't think they knew."

A monster starts to trail after them-- and when it rushes towards them, Homura sends a burst of energy its way. It splits open with a sickening noise but does not die instantly; it takes a few unsteady steps forwards, and collapses. She doesn't like to hurt animals like this; it turns her stomach, really. But this is a necessary thing. And so her averting her eyes is only for a short moment, before she turns her attentions towards everything else.

She has too many things to conserve; her magic, and her ammo.

"They're just as confused as the rest of us," Lightning agreed. Looking around, the situation was far from ideal. Day obviously didn't know how to fight, and Homura was competent but looking more worried each time Light checked.

Fighting them was wasting time. She checked the road ahead - much clearer, since they weren't the only ones living in Mercy with the ability to fight - and changed her mind. "Hey. We're gonna make a run for it. Concentrate on getting to the building, I'll cover you."

Day nodded, it seemed even the child that had enough knowledge and power to drag them here was not omniscient. Day missed her blowpipe, she was definately going to make some poisons and a blowpipe, she was no use without it.

Caution first always, going against Cornelia would be worth it if she could defend herself. She glanced at Lightning and nodded, she trusted her to cover her and trusted that she wouldn't offer if she wasn't sure she could do it. The question of course was what she would want in return, but that question could wait. Day fixed her gaze on the building, "Come on kid," she said to Homura ready to grab her and drag her if she wasn't fast enough, and ran.

"Right," Homura says, and she runs-- she's able to keep up with what looks like ease, but it's just magic pumped through her muscles, her legs. It doesn't take very long to reach the building.
