4th Case - [Action]/[Voice]

[fortuneprince]

[Voice]

[The sound of clicking is heard, it's more than likely that Naoto has no idea her mic is on right now.  The clicking stops for a moment before a snap as if something metal just shut.

Right now, Naoto is loading bullets into her gun but unless you know what loading a revolver sounds like, you're not going to know what it is.  She starts to speak, obviously not to any one who may be listening through the journal]  Senpai, Rise-san?  I'm leaving to go train, I will be back shortly.

[She closes her journal, cutting the audio off]

[Action]

[Unless you're Rise or Souji, who obviously saw her leave the room, you may see Naoto walking towards the battle dome in the early afternoon.  You may have even heard that she was heading there if you caught her voice clip before she shut it off.

Naoto will be there for most of the day, kicking shadow hologram ass and naturally some of the harder to beat ones from her world.  She's pretty determined to get even stronger so, she needs the challenge. 

If you come across her room in the battle dome, be sure to make your presence known so she doesn't shoot you by accident, thinking you're a shadow]

[Someone was observing from the second floor. You get a lot of interesting people that come through the battle dome with unique abilities. Naoto wasn't one of them, at least at first. Alexei was quickly disinterested after seeing her fight with her revolver and demonstrate her physical abilities. It was nothing special until he notice she wasn't alone half the time.]

...[Was he seeing things?...Maybe he'll observe her for a little while longer]

[Action]

[fortuneprince]

[Of course Naoto has no idea she's being watched right now, she's more focused on the shadows around her. It brings back a sense of nostalgia for her.

For a while she fights like she's doing target practice, shooting each shadow hologram once in the head to make it disappear. But she decides its time to pull out her Persona. She stands still and aims the gun in front of her while a blue card is on the other side of it. She pulls the trigger]

Come, Yamato-Takeru! [And in front of her, a persona appears, jumping up into the air and coming back down as it stabs its sword into the ground, causing everything around Naoto get hit multiple times and disappear within a matter of seconds]

[Action]

[fallenambitions]

[...Now that's more like it. This child also had summoning capabilities then. Now he's more attentive on her other capabilities. She's not bad for someone her age. Wonder she'll be willing to tell him what that was she summoned.

After watching her fight a moment longer, he steps back and moves back down to the first floor. He won't actually interrupt her until she finishes her session.]

[Action]

[fortuneprince]

[This goes on for a bit longer. Target practice mixed along with several new abilities shown by her persona but she finds herself slowing down.

She summons her persona one more time but this time it holds its hand up to create a purple light and that light falls to the ground, exploding so all the shadows around her disappear once more.

Naoto falls on her knees once they all disappear. Damn that wore her out. She takes her hat off and rubs her forehead with her sleeve, just a 5 minute break, that's all she needs...5 minutes]

[Action] Space time continuum fuckup #21346531 coming right up. :D'

[tvorcrash.livejournal.com]

[That makes him perk up. Training...there was the draft that was brought up in the guide, so it probably wouldn't be such a bad idea to tag along. With that in mind, he'll be following you, Naoto.] Hey, hang on!

[Action] LOL

[fortuneprince]

[Oh look, Souji's following her. She stops and turns to look at him curiously]

Yes, Senpai?

[Action]

[tvorcrash.livejournal.com]

[He'll stop as well when he gets close enough.] You don't mind if I came with you, do you? I could use a little time getting back into shape.

[Naoto wasn't the only one with the idea of using the battle dome today. Especially since the last draft, Minato's been taking more time to train. When she decides to take a break from training she might notice him over by the vending machines in the second floor viewing area. He's carrying a gym bag with a sword handle sticking out.]

[action]

[fortuneprince]

[It's been a few hours since Naoto initially started her training and she's pretty worn out so she's going to take a break and make her way up to the second floor when she spots Minato. She walks over to the vending machines and presses a button for a bottle of water]

Good afternoon, Minato-san.

[action]

[emp3thy]

Naoto-kun.

[If he was surprised by her appearance he doesn't show it. He nods at her, holding a can of Mad Bull, himself.] Here training?

[Action]

[de_bel_survivor]

[Ever since the draft, Kouki have been making sure to put some time aside for training. At this point, some people already know he's not a 'normal guy', with the spells he used in the battle field.

COMP in his pocket, with the mistletoe strap attached and dangling out in plain view, he'll be on the first floor.

Hm, which demons should he fight...]

[Action]

[fortuneprince]

[Since Naoto has been here for a while already, she's taking a little break. She had just gotten some water and is heading back to her room when she notices Kouki with a little mistletoe strap dangling out of his pocket]

Wakahisa-san?

[Action]

[de_bel_survivor]

[He's about to head over to set the scenario, when he heard Naoto's voice. He glance over.]

Shirogane-san?

[trueknight]

[Yuri practically lives in the battle dome, seeing as he's there just about daily. Normally, he minds his own business while people are doing their own thing there -- even if he knows the person -- but when he notices people he doesn't expect to see in there ... that gets his attention.

So, when he happens to pass by the room Naoto is using and notices her in there, he stops, hanging by the door to watch for the moment. He's got damn near zero knowledge of firearms, but he does know enough to know that he shouldn't just stroll in when someone's using one.]

[Action]

[fortuneprince]

[Since Naoto has no idea Yuri is watching her from the door, she continues to shoot the shadows like it's nothing. Okay, her skills with her gun haven't changed so it's time to see if her persona ability has.

She lets the shadows gather around her for a moment before holding the gun up at a glowing card] Come, Yamato-Takeru!

[She shoots it and the card shatters only to have her persona appear in front of her. It jumps up and quickly comes back down to the ground, only to show it had cut all the shadow holograms in half in less than a second. Moments after her persona disappears, Naoto collapses onto her knees, panting. That attack took a lot of her energy]

[Action]

[trueknight]

[And that right there was the second time he's seen any kind of summoning of any sort. He really can't help but stare when he sees that going on -- it's just ... different. And pretty awesome, really.

... When he sees Naoto fall to her knees, though, he makes his way into the room.]

Hey! You all right there?

[Cam... well. Cam isn't a fight, sie's a scholar, so hir interest in the dome was primarily to inspect the med center. After doing that though, sie's a bit at a loss for what to do. Clad today with a blouse, legging, and overcoat (so a bit in contract to the suit Naoto saw hir in at the party sie could just walk home but... sie came all the way out here and it's cold.

Sie thus has taken to getting a soda out of the vending machines and then considering fiddling with the controls. Sie can't help but wonder if sie can make a proper red sky using them... even if it's dangerous, this is an illusion or something, right? It might be worth it.

But it's still scary, so sie hasn't quite walked over to it, instead just lurking by one of the vending machines with a torn look on hir face]

[fortuneprince]

[Naoto is now taking a break from training, completely worn out but not quite ready to call it quits for the day. But she does need something to drink so she goes up to the second floor and heads over to the vending machine, only to see Cam. She does remember Cam from the party but is surprised to see hir here]

Is everything all right?

[kissdiet.livejournal.com]

Ah- [From the party, this is... Naoto, right? Cam nods and then puts on a little smile for a greeting] Hello. I actually came to inspect the med center here, but I got caught up in looking at the dome itself's features. My own World has nothing so sophisticated.

[...Which doesn't answer the question at all]

[analyzing]

[Rise's gathering her stuff out in the living room since she's about to be off to the Welcome Centre for her own shift. She'll look up when Naoto exits her room.]

Oh, there you are! Will you be going to that battle simulation place?

[fortuneprince]

[Stopping before she leaves the room, she turns to look at Rise]

Yes, I haven't trained in a long time so I thought perhaps now would be the best time.

[analyzing]

Oh? When's the last time you trained, Naoto-kun?

[forgiatura]

[ Spada actually doesn't know that much about firearms. He knows a lot about plenty of other war technology, and he certainly knows enough about swords, but he doesn't know much about guns — which is why he pauses by her room, and waits until she finishes shooting to call out to her.

Cupping his mouth in an attempt to make sure his voice carries, like he's not loud enough already. ]

Hey!

[fortuneprince]

[Naoto continues her shooting practice, unaware that Spada is watching her. After shooting the final hologram, she hears someone call to her, turning to see who it is. Certainly not someone she's met before.

But she responds though her voice isn't as loud as Spada's] Can I help you?

[forgiatura]

[ And as long as she's not firing that thing off (he has been way too close to dead plenty of times fighting alongside Iria) he takes a few steps into the room. ]

What kinda gun is that? [ It's a genuine question! ]
