12th Magic Bullet

[drank_the_milk]

[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!]

[He doesn't make a single movement. Not even something as a change in his facial expression, which really is quite normal for him. But yes.

This clearly isn't good.]

I believe you have me mistaken for something else.

Don't mess with me! What did you do with my friends?

[repeatsalvation.livejournal.com]

[A slow shake of his head.]

As I said. I believe you're quite mistaken and it would be best if-

Assuming that's my cue!

[gonnamarrydaddy.livejournal.com]

Shut up! Give them back!

[And BANG goes the gun. Yuna's not pulling any punches here - she's aiming right for Wilhelm's heart. Or rather, where she assumes a demon's heart to be, which is in the same place as it is on a human.]

[repeatsalvation.livejournal.com]

[It's quick. And at first, he isn't sure he can make it. Using his powers in this body is...strange. And he hasn't used them enough to get used to forcing them on a physical form. And without all his powers at his disposal, it's more difficult than he imagined it.

His telekinesis stops the bullet from penetrating his heart, but just barely. And the strain of having caught it is painful in its own way. But there's no fear there. Wilhelm had faced death twice already here, so fear was unnecessary. And his voice didn't change at all.]

Put the gun down.

[If she attempts to fire again, he'll try and use his telekinesis to cause her arm to twitch away to the side instead of aiming straight, but it's hardly impossible to break out of his control and he's somewhat tired already from exerting himself so suddenly.]

[gonnamarrydaddy.livejournal.com]

No way! Not until you give my friends back!

[Gritting her teeth, Yuna tries firing again, but her aim is thrown slightly off by the sudden telekinesis. She's a good shot, but still not used to dealing with magical interference just yet. Let's say she clips his shoulder.]

...Next time I won't miss! I'm serious!

[repeatsalvation.livejournal.com]

[When he formed his body, he had not meant for it to really be able to be hurt. It isn't frail, but he hardly saw the necessity to give it anything that could be endurance.

So the bullet, even clipping his shoulder, hurts. And he stumbles back a bit, putting a hand to the wound. And glaring now.]

As I said. I did not take your friends.

I'm giving you a warning to stop. Now.

[gonnamarrydaddy.livejournal.com]

Why, so you can kill me too? Not a chance!

[Yuna keeps her gun trained on him, watching for him to make a move. Maybe she can intercept whatever he did last time.]

[repeatsalvation.livejournal.com]

[Goddammit. If he had his actual form back, this wouldn't be a problem. But being restricted to a human form? Incredibly tiring. Still, he tries to keep himself as upright, and as proud, as possible.]

As I said before, I don't recognize, or understand, what you're talking about.

And if you continue? I will have to kill you.

[gonnamarrydaddy.livejournal.com]

I'm not gonna let that happen!

[This time Yuna takes off running, trying to strafe around Wilhelm as she opens fire again. Maybe if she's a moving target, he won't be able to hit her with whatever threw her aim last time.]

[repeatsalvation.livejournal.com]

[If this were back home, a moving target would still be no challenge for him with his command of space and time. Hell, if he had that power back, even in this body it would still be relatively easy.

But with only his telekinesis, and stuck in a now wounded human body? It was more difficult then he expected. The pain, and the feeling of exhaustion, clouded his mind, made it more difficult to concentrate.

She's strafing. All right.

He'll attempt to use his telekinesis not to move her arm, but to try and knock her off her feet and to the ground.]

[gonnamarrydaddy.livejournal.com]

Damn it!

[As Yuna feels her feet slipping out from under her, she shifts her weight in an attempt to take control of her own momentum. She's still falling, but she's managed to turn it into more of a dive - at least when she hits the ground, it won't hurt quite as badly as a faceplant.

And while she's in midair, she does her best to whip her pistol around to take a few shots at Wilhelm on the way down like something out of an action movie.]

[repeatsalvation.livejournal.com]

[Wilhelm feels his body go down as some of the shots hit him. On their own, no specific one is fatal, but it's unlikely he'll survive the shock and eventual bloodloss due to them. He feels his body collapse, and struggles to not let his mind go out under it.

He's alive, but just barely. And, with whatever power he has left, he tries to concentrate. To turn it on the girl. It's clear she's dangerous, and needs to be stopped.

And so, he attempts to will his telekinesis in order to quickly break her neck. Usually it would be simple, but Wilhelm's so hurt and his mind clouding so quickly that it wouldn't be hard to resist the attempt.]

Double KO

[gonnamarrydaddy.livejournal.com]

[The only reason Yuna was able to react quickly enough to keep up with this sort of combat in the Magic World was because she was under the effects of Ako's doping. She's a pretty good marksman, and her reflexes are nothing to sneeze at, but unfortunately her inexperience is her biggest weak point.

Those shots on the way down were intended to buy some time to recover - time she never got before Wilhelm's last strike hit her. It wasn't enough to snap her neck instantly, but there was indeed a sickening cracking sound. Yuna's body goes limp as her clothing and artifact transform back, and all she's able to vocalize are pained whimpering noises as she slowly and painfully expires on the streets of Mayfield.]
