Trouble in Paradise [Disney Event, Medium, NDE]

[Irina Davayte]

So killing Ursula wasn't what Irina wanted. But it was done, and there was no point in getting worked up about it now. Anyway, really, it was probably safer this way. In the Disney story of The Little Mermaid, she was pretty sure Ursula was under some sort of punishment, and clearly that hadn't held. So, she figured, what's done is done. Was it right? Maybe not. But were the Merpeople safer without her? Definitely probably. She understood Senshi's choice. She ruled in favor of protecting the innocent at a cost of the rights of the criminal. Was it the best choice? There was no sense in worrying about that now. Irina kept silent in regard to that development.

Her eyes widened as she felt the earth quake and saw the sky darken. She had never seen a storm like this before. This reminded her that she still had no idea where she was or why. But soon it didn't matter; it all faded into nothingness.
Then, the beach where she had started her day formed around her. Sand returned beneath her feet. Bleh. The salty smell filled the air. Bleh. Worst of all, the sticky heat came over her like a sweaty blanket. But at least she was home, or at least in the world where she belonged.

An alarming-looking figure arrived. His words sounded more like a proposition than a command, but Irina considered her response carefully. "I do appreciate the offer," she said cautiously, trying to keep her tone light. "But I don't plan on fighting any demons, so I don't think I'll be wanting any more power." She restrained herself from finding out any more information. Who was this? What kind of power was he tapping into? Was she in any danger? She hoped her plan to remain casual but respectful would keep the situation from escalating. She hoped she wouldn't have to choose what to do if the demon-like person wanted a fight. While maintaining eye contact with the demon, she muttered under her breath in response to Shizuka. "Who do you mean by 'Disney'?"

[Senshi Odayakama (Crimson.)]

With the appearance of a demon and the sudden change of weather, Senshi narrowed her eyes. However, surprisingly she did not narrow her eyes at the demon of all people. At least, not yet. She instead turned to Shizuka who voiced her displeasure and her aggressive statement towards Senshi. As a result, the Shinigami lifted her right hand and pointed a middle finger straight at the human from a distance. "Screw you and jump off a building! At least unlike you I fucking do things. If it wasn't for me, you'd be drowned in the middle of a Tsunami!" The redheaded reaper would then turn to the demon while remaining rather ruffled. She'd proceed to take her sword and take a long sigh after all of this...this bullshit going on. What...the fuck happened?

"YOU'RE NOT GETTING SHIT!" Senshi was at her breaking point after chasing, fighting, being called names. This was too fucking much even for her patience. She took all of those red crystals and proceeded to shove them into her robes before she took a deep breath and began to repeatedly jab her blade into the sand over and over. "Calm down...just calm down." She had to consider the fact she lost her temper and she was feeling way too exhausted to be making anymore fights with people. The redheaded reaper just considered the fact also that she had eaten at first what was good food but was in a room with dead fish. Oh...oh lord. She could feel something rising, and as she leaned forward, she vomited onto the sand a bile like formation, which so happened to be near the demon's feet.

"I'm going home. I'm confused. I'm tired. I just killed a witch that stole some of my power for her attempted vendetta. I'm done." She'd proceed to take those crystals, walk off, open the Senkaimon, and if allowed would leave two ladies and a demon to deal with their own shit. Squad 12 she was sure would be interested in these shards. These people could deal with their own little quest. She wasn't fitted for this job. She was an unseated officer and she just wanted to get this all over with so she could rest up from this exhaustion. On top of this, she had to now report that she had been confronted by a hell emissary. This was going to be a bad day. So, as she marched off with her limits broken and a new side to her revealed, she swallowed her growing ferocity and swallowed it like an oversized grandfather pill with no water. She knew her responsibility dictated she help these humans but...she was too exhausted to be of much help anymore anyways. For that reason, she'd return, fill out her form, and get someone like Kaen or Himitsu...or Taicho July to try dealing with these people.

Besides, the first two...maybe the third option were all better at socialization anyways. So, with Senshi leaving with all of this pent up aggression, she vanished. If they thought she was such a big fucking problem, she'd let them deal with their own problems. Good for them. All these crystals she earned? She'd keep them and have Squad 12 study them later. ERRRRGH!

Not having obtained the Rage crystal, the Hell Emissary simply snorted and left in a flash of red lightning. He left behind Shizuka and Irina to talk among themselves if they wished so Shizuka could catch the other woman up to speed on just what was going on. Kazura had not appropriately briefed Irina before sending her out, just letting her know that there would be conflict that she had to resolve. So, there were things that the Xcution Rifle could introduce to Irina before they went their separate ways. As for the shards they had, they weren't going to be helpful at the moment. There weren't enough red nor white shards to create a full Crystal. Would the shards go to Kazura or to Disney was the real question. Or would both men have a share of the shards?

1 Rage Crystal and 2 Rage shards added to Soul Society inventory. Senshi's work in this thread is completed, so only Shizuka and Irina need to finish up the interactions before rewards are finalized. 1 more post each should do it.

[Shizuka Sanamizu ✮]

Shizuka sighed heavily after realizing she and Irina were alone. She was relieved that both the Hell emissary and Senshi had left. She didn't appreciate the rude behavior from the Shinigami garbage, but she couldn't expect any more from her in terms of manners. She was just reassuring that Shizuka's judgment was right. That aside, Irina didn't know who Disney was. Did she never read those stories as a child? Walt Disney and his entire empire were famous! The blonde was shocked to hear that coming from another young woman. Well, she assumed she was young. Everyone aged slower who was involved in the spiritual world.

"Well, now that this is over... Disney. Like, Walt Disney. He recruited me and a few others who aren't here to collect these shards. See, that guy wanted to use the shards for evil but Disney wants to use them for good. They'll be able to help him achieve that. As a good person, myself, I felt obligated to work with him. You weren't originally involved in this meeting, so it's likely someone sent you to retrieve them. Whether you bring it directly to Disney or not, judging from the way you were trying to handle Ursula, I think they're in good hands. It's your choice. But the longer you stay involved, the more likely it is we'll meet again. So take care. If you ever need me, pulse your Reiatsu into this."

The Fullbringer handed Irina an Xcution business card. It was unlike the ones given to those Shizuka attempted to recruit into the organization, but it was similar in a way that it was linked to Shizuka. Irina would be able to get her attention by doing exactly what Shizuka said, so they would be able to communicate if need be. Since she felt her work here was done, though, whether she wanted it to end this way or not, Shizuka took the opportunity to wave to the woman and get herself back home. She needed to rest after being a part of a story like that. She had no idea the life of a Disney princess was so stressful. Before all of that, though, Shizuka was going to drop these shards off with Disney, himself.

[Irina Davayte]

Ah yes, that Disney. Last she'd heard, he was dead. So it was either the case that he wasn't actually dead, or Shizuka was crazy. Irina was open to believing either option at this point, although she didn't seem crazy. Of course, she could be lying, but Irina had a feeling that wasn't the case, either. She accepted Shizuka's card, putting it in her soggy backpack. She wasn't sure if she might need it, but was glad to have the option, and said "Thanks". It seemed like it was time to get back home. Interestingly, she noted that she had mentally referred to Karakura as her home. She supposed it really was, for at least as long as she'd be in school. Well, she was here on assignment from work, so she supposed she'd bring the shards back to Kazura, although the instructions she'd been given on what to do here had been quite vague.
