[There is a gate on the Plane. It's a rather eerie-looking gate, lopsided and leaking odd shadows. Just from looking at it one would get a sense of fear and evil. This is a Demon Gate, and the creatures around it are clearly the ones that give it that name.]

[There are four of them. Two of them look like enormous koi fish, draped in ragged kimonos and soaring through the air on blade-like fins. A third looks like a huge flower bud, with four legs, a spiked tail and an oni mask. The fourth looks a bit like a decaying crane, and is also wearing an old and worn kimono, an umbrella wrapped in one wing. Surrounding the demons and the Demon Gate is a sickly red light, in which Japanese characters flicker like ghosts.]

[In the middle of it all is Amaterasu. She looks nothing like the sweet, even-tempered goddess everyone knows and loves; her expression is one of pure wrath, lips peeled back over vicious white teeth, hackles raised, fur on end. Her fur is spattered with blood, some of it red, the rest black and green. She's darting around inside the red shield almost faster than the eye can follow, a shining white light among the screeching demons. The mirror on her back is streaking out as if it has a mind of its own, tearing into the demons. There's a slash of ink and one of the fish lets out a shriek as it is cut clean in half, bursting into flowers as it disappears. Amaterasu has already moved onto the next fish, letting out a terrible roar as she leaps into the air and cuts its wings apart, bringing it to the Plane floor.]

[This is the other side of Amaterasu--the wolf, the hunter, the warrior.]

Mm... Well, I guess it goes to show that the nice and adorable ones are all ruthless killing machines underneath.
mercwamouth: (not listening)

Go figure. Everything I need to know I did learn in Kindergarten.
mercwamouth: (fighty time)

Kindergarten. A magical land filled with Raffy music and platitudes.

So how did you end up bringing the demon things here?
mercwamouth: (surprised oh shi-)

[personal profile] mercwamouth 2009-01-15 10:34 pm (UTC)(link)
I figured you had to try to bring things here. Good to know that it can happen by accident too.
mercwamouth: (that one)

Well you weren't touching all of those baddies, were you? And I'm sure you've popped over here during random encounters before, right?
mercwamouth: (migraine)

How do these gate things work, exactly?
mercwamouth: (it's simple really)

[personal profile] mercwamouth 2009-01-16 05:30 am (UTC)(link)
So basically you go there and you have to kill everything or you can't leave?
