Thread: Magical Girl - Oblivion Seeds! ( Iridium248 x Major Mario )

Wha- Etoile's low gasp pulsed from her lips, her eyes going so very, very wide - the lovely redhead entirely aghast! Things were beginning to happen very quickly...If she hadn't seen her fair share of weirdness as a magical girl, she'd be pretty sure that she was dreaming. As the crimson fog swirled around them, tumorous growths pushing out from the area all around - the foul mist lending a particularly surreal cast to Etoile's surroundings - the Digital Angel had to admit... She hadn't seen this coming! Is that...? she had time to breathe - even as the old lecher she'd just been talking to swelled , his body warping out of all proportion! Even as he burst out of his ratty outfit, as the wave of change swept across him, Etoile had just enough time to flinch back, defensively, taking her first step forward- Her guess had been right - there was an Oblivion Seed here. But... -It's in him...? And the Oni wasn't alone, either - Etoile whirled, at the first screams...As the goblins came swarming out from the weird extrusions in the walls and floors! There were dozens of them, and more by the second - a seemingly endless horde, surging towards the stage- This could be bad. Stay back-! Her slim fingers went to the data-bracelet on her wrist - a chunky keyboard-esque device that'd simply looked like part of Etoile's costume before - keying in a frantic sequence! The air before the stage swarmed with blue hexagons, the hasty barrier flaring to life as the goblins rammed into it...Sparks flying in all directions, as Etoile winced - Her lissome legs buckling, as if she'd been punched! I - nnnnn!!! she managed, oh-so-aware that she'd only bought the other girls a few seconds...It wasn't that she couldn't fight her way free, but she couldn't take on these many goblins and protect them at the same time! There was, after all, only one of her- ...Wait. Inspiration dawned. Etoile's gaze flicked over the Chun-Li cosplayer, who'd gone all catatonic...Hilde, who was screaming in the way only a woman in the throes of mortal terror could manage - And Laughing Octopus, who looked like she at least had things together! At a time like this...No-one could blame Etoile if she deputized , right? EXECUPGRADE! Etoile intoned...Motes of light swirling around her lissome form - As with a flick of her wrist, she directed it at the lovely blonde! Neon lights jagged across Laughing Octopus's form...Taking form, like an engineer's schematics in fast-forward. Power ambled across the woman's luscious figure...Parts of her costume turning a shiny jet-black - Her startled hands curled around the grips of a very impressive Code Cannon It looked - and weighed as much as - a plastic prop, but hummed with virus-busting lethality and a Nova Carbine! . It works like a camera- she had time to gasp out, over the screams of the crowd and the jeers of the goblins - Just point and click ... And then Etoile had to drop the barrier, as dark spots hazed in her field of vision! Digital Blade! she called - Her slim fingers closing around the singular hilt of a long, straight sword ...the edge glowing with virtual light! As her shield fell, as the goblins came swarming forward, she swept her weapon across - the blade humming, carving through them in great, clean sweeps as if she was scything through grass! She had to give the other girls a chance to get clear...Maybe then she'd be able to take on the Oni, once she'd whittled down his forces!
