drank_the_milk | 12th Magic Bullet

[Despite all of Garviel's good intent to protect his daughters, Yuna is just too much of a creature of habit to get out of this event unscathed. The morning that the tainted milk goes out to the town courtesy of its new police chief, the compulsion kicks in and she drinks a whole bottle of Special Milk down before she even knows what's going on. Grinning, she wipes away the milk moustache with her forearm before rushing out the door in her pajamas. Once outside, her eyes widen in surprise.]

No way! I'm back?

[Drawing out her pactio card, Yuna loudly calls out 'ADEAT!' and transforms into her gunner costume, whipping out a stylized magical pistol and stalking off into the streets with a serious look on her face.]

There's more demons here than ever! What happened while I was out, anyway? I'd better be careful!

[Yuna's hallucinating pretty badly. She thinks she's in the Magic World again, and unfortunately she also thinks all of her fellow Mayfield captives are demons summoned by Cosmo Entelechia to kill her and her friends. If you come up to her, she will very likely try to shoot you down - and she's not half bad with a pistol, either. Be warned!]

I'm not lowering anything! You want me to stop shooting, you're gonna have to kill me!

OverDrive.

[That as all that Yuna had to say for him to take action. From muttering those words, time had begun to slow down dramatically until it all was frozen in place. The world and all of it's surroundings were still and only he had been granted access to move in a still-timed world.

And that's when he began his move to disarm her weapons and pin her down to the ground with blue glowing energy chains. Despite being a master of time magic, he wanted to use as least much power as he could for this. If it were anyone else he didn't care for, he wouldn't have hesitated on killing them. For her, he'll take the risk and at least bound her up with his magic rather than hurting her at all. It was this point when he allowed time to slip back to normal pace but felt greatly weakened by that.]

If you say stupid things like that again, there won't be a brain left to teach you with!

[Yuna blinks as time starts back up again and she sees Blue standing there with her weapon. Her first instinct is to struggle against her bonds for a few moments, but she also remembers that there's one other handy trick about her artifact that he probably doesn't know.]

Abeat!

[There's a flash of light, and Yuna's gun disappears from Blue's hand. It doesn't appear back in hers, however, as it's simply transformed back into card form, safely tucked into her pocket. Yuna herself is also enveloped in a momentary flash of light, and is now wearing her pajamas again.

And now that that's taken care of, she can start thrashing around trying to get loose.]

Let me go!

No. I won't until you stop this foolishness.

[The disappearance of her own weapons was what surprised him since he was more than sure she wasn't advanced enough to unsummon weaponry so early and especially when she's constricted. It seems that is another thing he'll learn about today.

But Blue does have cards up his sleeve. Three of them at least.]

Yuna. I will say this as your only warning. If you do not stand down, you will die. And I will be damned if I'll be killed by my own student that needs training.

[Yuna keeps struggling against her restraints, but eventually stops with a heavy sigh. She doesn't look any less indignant, though.]

Fine, then. Have it your way. Just take me to Makie-chan and the others.

You're going to need to direct me on where they are if you wish for me to take you there. Otherwise, I will have no ojections to this.

You mean you don't know?

This is the first time you've ever mentioned that name. The only name I do know about is a person named Negi and that was only mentioned on our first encounter with one another when you asked for assistance on using magic and I don't even know where he lives. You went out on your own to check on him when this whole town went drone when I've asked you to come to my house until the situation clears up.

So no, I don't know.

So Fate didn't tell you what he did with her, then...

That would be another name I am unfamiliar with.

So you're not working with him?

I work for no one but for myself and the Magic Kingdom. With the exception of putting a gun to my face, I have no reason to see you as an enemy or whatever threat you may think.

So you're a freelancer! Can you let me go, then? I'm only after the demons that kidnapped my friends.

... and what makes you think I'm a demon to begin with?

Well, uh... you look like all the other ones I've seen.

I don't know if that would be a compliment or an insult.

It isn't either.

... then you're mistaken. I am a human.

And you're just disguised like a demon to blend in?

... Yuna. Did you drink the milk this morning?

Not that it's got anything to do with you, but yes.

[Face and palm have now met each other in a hastily manner.]

Just like the other two... Fine. Here is a surprise quiz for you that I'm sure you'll pass and be greatly disappointed if you didn't. I had called you out by name several times, addressed you as my student twice, retold you of a past event that had occurred for the both of us, used my own signature magic to restrain you and talking to you in a casual manner. As well as being a human, not a demon. Now who would I be?
