✧ JUST A DREAM AWAY ✧

Tokyo, The Dream World Festival, 7:00 pm.

It happened so suddenly. No one was really sure what 'it' was, but people were dropping like flies around you, the entire Dream World festival affected by this mysterious phenomenon. People were falling asleep and many found their quirks to be swapped with others in an erratic manner. The dreams people found themselves in were hellscapes, but the others didn't fare much better in the waking world.

Not that the waking world means much of anything to you anymore.

Whisked away into a dream, your real body remains in the waking world, but you have arrived somewhere entirely different. With or without your quirk, with or without loved ones, the situation is dire.

Will you ever find your way back home? Is there even such a thing as a way back, or has your life in purgatory just begun?

—---------------------------------------------------------------------------

A Forest in the Dream, ???, 7:00 pm??

The transportation into the dream is instantaneous. It is impossible for you to tell if, or how long any of you have been asleep. Looking around you're in a clearing of what appears to be a gloomy dark forest, trees stretching for unending miles no matter where you look. The blank, abyss black sky also offers little solace as it stares down at you expectantly.

You are not in Tokyo anymore.

The tension hung in the air for a moment as the dreamers got their bearings. Plunged into a dark dream with powers that may, or may not be their own. They couldn't be expected to adapt quickly, or even at all to their fate. However, before they could chat too long amongst themselves, before they could start to really figure out where they were... A cat appeared.

No ordinary cat, this creature was more akin to a tall, slender man, frolicking on the branches of nearby trees, like a weightless, elegant leaf in the stream of creation. He was several meters tall with long, spider-like limbs and a bushy tail. The only thing that made him vaguely resemble a cat was his ears, large, unblinking eyes and whiskers. ''Hello Alice.'' He said without looking at them, his fangs bared in his cartoonishly big smile. Sitting upright like a man with his spindly legs crossed he looked down at them and raised an eyebrow. ''One, two...'' Excitement rose in his voice. ''So there's more than one of you this time.'' His smile was just as constant as his stare, facial features locked in place as he kept talking unperturbed by his own situation. ''For a group of people you've done pretty well for yourselves so far, you have my respect.'' He looked to the side momentarily, gulping. ''Not that my respect means much when you're trapped in a dark forest and there's a horrible monster out to get you, but you know.'' He shrugged, ''what can you do?'' The dreamers clearly didn't seem as amused as him by this whole situation so he rolled his eyes in a bizarrely quick manner.

''You wanna make it out of here? My advice, you keep walking, don't stop for anything, find that golden key, grab it, get out. You don't have much time...'' He trailed off, as if he wanted to emphasize the time part. For the first time since he appeared he actually shut up, but only for a moment. ''Waiting around will just get you killed, torn to shreds, off with their heads, as they say!'' He chuckled. ''Anyway,'' he cleared his throat and looked at all of them. ''No time, keep moving, Golden. Key. You got it? Good? Good. Bye for now Alice!'' Just as suddenly as he appeared he had vanished again.

The forest, it wasn't just dark and scary, there was something else about it. It felt alive, but in all the wrong ways. The ground, the trees, it was equal parts normal forest and human flesh. A forest of flesh and arms, that was what this place was. The arms which had remained docile and out of view until now directed their attention towards the dreamers, some even breaking through the ground beneath them to try and grab them and pull them down. Presumably to hold them in place until the monster of the forest caught up with them.

Only a grizzly fate awaited those who had been whisked away into a dream, especially those who had entered...

The Forest of Many Arms

TL;DR:

You fell asleep after the Dream World attack and now find yourself in the Forest of Many Arms. A hellscape made of forest and human flesh. A tall cat-looking man appears and refers to all of you as Alice. He tells you that the only way to escape the forest and being murdered by the monster that is actively approaching their location from somewhere, is to keep moving and find the golden key.

Like all the others, Iphi's trip was instant. One moment, she was working at the Unity Festival and had, just moments prior to her transportation to the Dream World, heard the very first cases of quirks being swapped around, and then...nothing.[break][break]

From her spot in the clearing, she would open her eyes and sit up, taking in her new surroundings. It would be easy for someone with a galaxy-sized brain like hers to deal with this new reality. All she had to do was wait a minute. Why did she feel so slow? It felt like her thoughts were moving in slow motion, even when she tried to pull from her well of memories to try and find literally anything that could enlighten her. [break][break]

Then came a sharp pain in her skull that resulted in her briefly slumping over as the last vestiges of her enhanced intellect...the last remainder of her genius...the uh...the leftovers of her brain? No, no, that didn't seem right. Either way, she had changed, and without the world's weight on her shoulders, she felt free. The situation hadn't improved, but she had changed and felt lighter for the first time she could remember.

[break][break]
She had no more time to take all this in as she looked around and realized she wasn't alone. By chance, she ended up with a lot of familiar faces, except...why was Meika a rabbit? At the very least, she wasn't the only teacher here, and Kei wasn't exactly a new student. Together, she was certain they could figure out a plan to get back to the festival. The only thing was that they didn't need to go far, with the appearance of a freaky-looking cat who was 'kind' enough to give them some insight. Whether they could trust him or not wasn't what was on her mind; without the extra analytical part of her brain, she had one question: "Uh, who is Alice?" she'd look around and point at every one of them before she ended up back to herself "No one here is named Alice but- are you listening?" another first as her temper flared up, who the hell did this catman think he or it was?

[break][break]
Just as quickly as it appeared when the world needed him most, he vanished. Iphi's shoulders slumped as she sighed heavily. Things were never easy, were they? "Okay, game plan! Dunno what the heck is going on, but we can figure this out together. I definitely lost my quirk, so I'm pretty sure I can't even use my own gear." Why did she make her equipment so complicated? Big regrets at the moment. "Forest seems to be our only option even with those freaky hands. So we'll just go over the—!" As she pointed towards the forest, a neon pink tendril would extend from her finger and shoot towards one of the longer hands, which then pulled her towards it like a bungee cord. She had managed to avoid the hands coming from below, but there were much bigger problems at hand[break][break]

tl;dr Iphi has a moment when she comes to terms with her intelligence being gone, listens to but questions the cat creature, addresses the group since she's met all of them before, accidental quirk activation (Blackwhip) saves her from the hands from below but is now sending her flying towards one of the larger hands.

[lonewolf]

Mark had experienced hangovers in the past, and what he was currently feeling was something like it. One moment he was having a heated competition with that asshole Hasani, and the next he was suddenly here. Not only did he feel like hell, his right arm felt like some kind of spike in it. It was very unpleasant.

It was no better when the "cat" made it's appearance. He started to reach for The Carry in its holster, but something about his arm gave him the impression it was best to use his left hand instead. It was awkward, but once he got the gun in hand and in battery he felt a lot better. This forest, if you could call it that, gave him the creeps and even if he wasn't safe having something in hand made him feel safe.

The forest wasn't the only thing that was off, though. Two students, not to mention Recall, was here as well, the latter which was using diction and spacing that was unlike her. What was even more alarming was the fact she didn't have her quirk...and Meika was a rabbit. Was she always a rabbit? She had devil horns before, didn't she? "Questions for later," he says, beginning to scan their surroundings. "You kids keep close, there's no telling what that thing was talking about."

But that's when things immediately went off the rails. Right off the bat hands managed to reach out of the ground and take hold of his ankles, and with grit teeth he aimed down and fired. He had rock salt loaded, anticipating any problems during Dreamworld to be immediately solved with a small shotgun blast that'd sting like hell, and...oddly enough, it was good enough to stun the hands enough to get free. Though once Iphi started flying he'd reach out to try and grab her so she didn't get separated...only as he reached out he flexed something that wasn't there before. His hand went up, and before he knew it his jacket arm ripped as the barrel of some rifle burst through the fabric. For a moment he was stunned, looking at the piece that had made itself aware to him. My quirk's gone, too. And now I've got one of them transformation things...fuck, the timing of this couldn't be worse.

He forced himself free of the hands, aiming the barrel down as he pointed the Carry at the feet of either Meika or Kei, whichever was struggling the most in the moment to unleash the rest of his magazine, beginning to move off where Iphi went. "Don't stand there, move! Full permission to use quirks, but we can't just stay here!"

tl;dr:
-Put a gun in his left hand
-Freed himself from the hands
-Learned of his new quirk in his attempt to keep Iphi with the group
-Helping get the group free so they can get back with Iphi

Kei Hada Meika Hijiri Fanthes Iphigenia Pavlina

Kei didn't like it here.

He woke up - woke up? when had he fallen asleep? - around the same time as the others. Familiar faces. Instructors he's either seen on campus or worked with personally. People he could latch on to while navigating some area that very much wasn't the festival that he should be in. That they should all be in, really. He would love to finish that cotton candy he was eating instead of lie in the dirt thinking about tearing that weird cat person in half and throwing the pieces so far no one would hear them hit the ground.

Wait.

That thought didn't come from him, did it?

Kei clutched his head, fingers digging in his hair. "Somethin's wrong." The thoughts didn't stop as a constant stream of danger assessment flowed through his mind. Teachers were safe - definitely don't kill them why was he reminding himself of this - he should listen to them. They were telling them to move; they shouldn't stay here. Frankly, he agreed, though it was taking longer than it should to sift through his thoughts to come to that conclusion. "Okay. Okay-"

As soon as he stood though, he couldn't take a step all of a sudden, as if his legs were rooted to the floor. It wasn't until Lone Wolf fired his gun close to his feet that he looked down at the... hands. Hands. Grasping his legs. He looked around, finally registering the limbs reaching out around them. His eyes grew wide. His breathing picked up. It bordered on hyperventilation as he screamed. "Oh my GO-"

KEI!

Shadows poured out of the support student and he was engulfed, the energy crushing the remaining hands around him with its weight. The dark mass carried him off the ground and forward, deeper into the forest as Recall instructed. It moved past her as if wholly unconcerned with her problem.

---

OOC: Kei wakes up to the weird forest with thoughts of violence that concern him. He tries to follow the heroes' orders despite them but the hands keep him in place. He panics, shadows surround him and he's carried away from the ground hands and deeper into the forest.

✧ JUST A DREAM AWAY ✧

Iphi effortlessly managed to get away from the smaller hands below, but the large hand she was headed towards would immediately attempt to grapple her. Like mindless zombies, more hands attacked Mark, Meika and Kei, but thanks to the combined efforts of their new powers they managed to repel them for now. Like wild animals fearing fire, they recoiled from Mark and Kei, watching and swaying from a distance.

Whether Iphi managed to fight her way out of the hand or got help, a deeper voice eventually spoke up.



''Alice? Does that mean...'' The voice came from behind Kei as two, gargantuan glowing eyeballs appeared in the hillside. The hill stared at them all for a moment, taking it all in as it uttered a foreboding sigh. ''Oh no, you're the next ones.'' Its eyes were so big that it made wet noises whenever it blinked. ''You can't let the creature of the forest see you here.'' The hill's voice was slow and booming, but there was a sense of urgency to it. ''Don't stop moving, don't stop for anything, okay? If at least one of you can make it out...'' Hurried footsteps, fast approaching from the side opposite of where the dreamers were headed urged them onward. The hill looked in their direction, fear washing over it. ''Please.. Go. We are not welcome here.''

The path heading out of the clearing was sloped, but there were far less hands to bother them, although that might be because they just hadn't woken up yet. The sounds of rapid water filled the air, alerting the dreamers to what came next, their path was blocked by a river. The water rushing through it looked otherworldly, changing colors on a whim with bubbles, some smaller than an eyeball and others bigger than a car, rising out of it. Within seconds of first laying eyes on it, the river distorted and changed shape in the blink of an eye. What was its true form and where was it safe to step? Was the water toxic, or completely harmless? The sound of distant footsteps closing in urged the dreamers to push on.

The Forest of Many Arms

TL;DR:
Everyone manages to escape the smaller hands, but the large hand attempts to grapple Iphi. The commotion wakes up a hill which might be a former victim of the forest. It urges them all to keep moving. The path ahead leads to a river with some funky colors which seems to distort and change shape in the blink of an eye, making it difficult to see where land ends and water begins. Will everyone cross safely?

That was something you didn't see everyday. Mark didn't know much about Hada, but those shadows...those were familiar.

There was too much happening at once, and not enough time to execute everything at once. He brought his gun up to his lips, locking his teeth around the back of the slide best he could as he reached down and picked up some of the casings. God, all of this was hot! He didn't know where he was, but he really hoped that this wouldn't be permanent. Glancing up at the big hand he ripped part of his shirt and felt along his arm...and upon finding a strange crevice he shoved one of the casings into it. No damn clue if this will work, but something's gotta be done. He brought the barrel up, tilting his head over to try and get a sight picture...or as good of one as he could. He lined up on the hand, right as it started to close it's fingers around Iphi, and fired.

The casing flew at speed, but it wasn't what it could have been. All Mark saw was a chunk of the wrist vanish, and the hand beginning to fall to the side. He tried to speak, but his other weapon was doing a good job of making him unintelligible. Taking it in his left hand again he'd start to run, opening his jaw to get everything to work. "Ow! Hot! Let's get going before things really go sideways!"

Fanthes,Iphigenia Pavlina,lonewolf,Kei Hada,

tl;dr:
-Put gun in mouth and picked up casings
-Used the Rifle to shoot at the hand
-started to run to try and chase Kei

Iphi may have lacked her quirk for properly analyzing the situation, but she still had her instincts. What she had to learn to supplement her quirk was what remained even without High Spec as a crutch. Whatever this...thing coming out of her hand was, it was something she needed to learn how to control and fast. With the large hand coming up she came up with a thought. If this thing came out of her hands then what was stopping her from doing the same with her free hand? After all, she did need to get out of this before she got grabbed!

[break][break]
Clenching her free hand and focusing as hard as she could produce a tiny tendril as well, except this time, it was only a few inches from her finger. She would aim at a nearby tree and then, by concentrating further, it would extend towards another tree slowly with the pace of it not likely to save her from the giant hand at the rate it was moving.
[break][break]
Luckily, Lonewolf came to the rescue! As the hand recoiled, it gave her enough time to stop herself by using the other tendril. Landing on her feet finally she would head back towards Lonewolf. "Thanks for the assist buddy! We gotta go get Kei." she was still trying to figure out the fine tuning of her new quirk, but she did notice that when she felt the full concern over Kei getting lost the tendrils on each hand would flair up. Odd, could it be the quirk had to do with her emotions? She would dig deep and think try to think about something that made her really mad and...woah! The quirk seemed to respond to this as it flared up even more, this time coating her entire hands and extending a few feet from her body. As much as she wanted to sit around and figure this out they had more things to prioritize so she'd take off after Kei, ending up in the same area that he did in front of a river. Perhaps if she could take the time, she could use this new quirk to cross it.
[break][break]
tl;dr
Iphi is getting better with her quirk and uses it to stop herself from getting grabbed[break]
Lonewolf to the rescue![break]
She regoups with him and then heads off towards Kei, wracking her brain to figure out her new quirk as quickly as possible[break]
Potentially thinking about spidermanning over the river

[Kei Hada]

What was happening? One moment hands sprouted from the ground to sink their nails in his legs, and the next he was surrounded by a dark energy and whisked away. Kei should be panicking about that second part - it was an energy that took hold of him so suddenly and being suspended as he was meant it had the strength to at least carry him - but for some reason he wasn't. It felt familiar, if anything. It reminded him of-

Why were those eyes so big?

As the hill itself spoke, the shadows manifested into claws. But why? It was weird, sure, but it didn't do anything. If anything it was trying to help them with that warning. Granted it didn't give them any new information but it was doing its best. The shadows reached out towards the hill and Kei's own eyes went wide. "NO!"

They paused. Okay. Talking to the energy seemed to help? Kei shook his head, eyeing the direction the footsteps were coming from with concern. "This thing's just tellin' us to move. We gotta go! Please." Almost instantly, the shadows receded, returning to carrying the student away from whatever was chasing them. "Thank you! Thank you."

As he reached the iridescent river, he couldn't help but frown at its ever-changing form and the bubbles that rose from it. He didn't trust it. He didn't trust anything that was happening here. The shadows seemed to think the same, already launching a tendril to latch onto a tree on the other side. But he shook his head again. "Wait."

Kei turned to the heroes and student who were catching up. Why were they so slow? Why was he faulting them for delaying their escape, it's not like they were slowing them down on purpose? "They need help too. Could you get them across?" Seemingly resigned, dark energy would reach out to Recall, Lone Wolf and Meika in an attempt to grab all of them. If they let it happen, the shadows would pull them all across the river and deposit the three on the ground haphazardly as soon as they got to the other side.

---

OOC: The shadows aimed to maul the hill but Kei stopped them before that could happen. He had the shadows carry them all across the river instead should Iphi, Mark and Meika allow it. They're dropped on the floor as soon as they're across if they do.

✧ JUST A DREAM AWAY ✧

Through the combined efforts of the dreamers, Iphigenia managed to escape the clutches of the larger hand, but distant footsteps were still fast approaching. Between witnessing the terrifying powers of Mark and Iphi, the hill looked at Kei and his shadow claws with solemn eyes. ''Please, don't... You need to go.''

The river bubbled and shifted, uneasy and volatile, what might happen to those who dared touch it, or worse fell in? Whether the others accepted Kei's offer to help go across, found a way to cross on their own, or simply remained on the other side, the instant the first person crossed something started to happen.

A man emerged from the strong currents on the other side of the river next to Kei. To most of the dreamers he was just another unfamiliar face, but the unconscious woman he was dragging out of the waters wasn't. It was none other than Sadako Gotoh, the UAU student counselor. The man was gasping for air, almost about to collapse from exhaustion when he looked up and jumped at the sight of Kei. To Mark Browning, this man was the splitting image of his younger brother, Sean.

''Who are you?'' He asked Kei, still catching his breath. Looking around at the others his eyes settled on Mark. ''..Brother?'' He asked carefully, unable to believe what he was seeing. However, he quickly snapped out of it, looking to Iphi specifically. ''You have to help me, this woman- she's not breathing!''

The waters stirred once more as a figure wearing a diving suit, old school helmet and all walked onto the riverbank. They turned to face the group before unscrewing the helmet, revealing the hero Vox, or as Kei better knew him, Ryota Hada underneath. ''Kei, pull yourself together! Now's hardly the time to be standing around.'' He flashed a winning smile, tossing the helmet aside. ''I'm glad to see you're okay. This whole thing is a mess.'' He reached out to try and give his brother a pat on the shoulder.

It was them. There was no mistake these were people they knew, but how? Could they really be trusted?

The Forest of Many Arms

TL;DR:
Making it across the river one way or another the dreamers are greeted by an unexpected sight. Mark's long lost brother Sean is helping drag an unconscious Sadako out of the river in an attempt to save her, while Ryota Hada wearing a diving suit comes out of the water shortly after. Sean pleads for help to save Sadako while Ryota tries to cheer Kei up.

The river was an obstacle that Mark was not exactly fond of. While he had waded a stream or two in his time, those were always mostly clean. This one...yeah, even if there was a bridge going across he didn't want to risk it. Of course, before he had the opportunity to consider his options the dark energy wrapped around him and pulled him over. "Hey hey hey! Easy! That stuff looks bad, don't let go!" This really did feel like a really bad fever dream, and once they were all clear he'd adjust the Carry and finagle it back into its holster, seeing that it was going to be pretty useless.

That being said, with the people suddenly coming out of the water Mark couldn't help but bring his weapon up, preparing for the worst...and the worst was what he was going to have. Mark and Sean had always been confused as twins growing up, and while this man had shaggy hair and a partial beard there was an obvious connection. He had loaded another casing into his arm, the barrel swung out to take aim at him. "What the hell is this?" he says, his voice low and threatening as his eyes flicked towards the unconscious Sadako. "Get your hands up, Sean. Up! You so much as twitch a muscle, I swear to God!"

He glanced at the diving suit and with the hatch opened saw Vox. This was just as strange, and something about this whole situation didn't sit right. He remembered seeing Sadako and Vox at the festival, as well as everyone else here. Assuming these were all trapped in this world too then that meant that Sean was here in Tokyo...but they all more or less showed up in the same clothes they were already wearing. Why was Vox in a diving suit?

He'd move to try and interpose himself between Kei and Vox, looking at the diver while keeping the barrel of Rifle pointed at Sean. "Recall, if there's something hunting us then we can't be sure any of these people are real. We need to keep moving." There was no evidence to support this, only hunches. Vox's attire and Sean's presence were the only two red flags Mark had, and priorities had to be made. He didn't like the idea of abandoning Sadako, but if she were really trapped in this dreamscape then shouldn't she have dropped in with the rest of them?

tl;dr:

-Gets dragged across the river
-Loads up and threatens Sean
-Tries to put himself between Kei and Vox
-Makes a short case on the importance of moving forward

A big side effect of losing her quirk was that Iphi no longer had her emotions filtered. Part of her journey up until now was fighting the effects of her quirk, which prioritized logic over emotion. Now, her emotions were overflowing as she had never, up until now, had to regulate in the opposite direction. It was overwhelming, and her attitude reflected that as Kei's new quirk grabbed her. "Hey, stop it! Don't use your quirk on us without asking first!" This spike of anger was reflected in her own new quirk as the energy from Blackwhip was no longer isolated in her fingers and now crept up her arms, pushing against the bounds of the shadows and flaring up further, breaking out of his grip just as they finished crossing. Once free, Blackwhip receded slightly but remained wrapped around Iphi's extremities.

[break][break]
Before she could properly reprimand Kei, her attention shifted towards the disturbance in the water. She moved into a defensive stance, unwillingly trusting anything in this forest, and was ready to strike out until...Sadako? "SADA!" she shouted, seeing her best friend unconscious. How did she end up in the river? Could it be...
[break][break]
"What in the hell did you do to Sada? GET AWAY FROM HER!" she'd shout, and as if it were a living being, Blackwhip would erupt. The pinkish-yellow tendrils would lash out in all directions but primarily focus on Sean, looking to throw him away from Sadako. Regardless of whether it worked or not, Iphi would rush forward, surrounded by her quirk going wild, and bend down to check on Sadako. "Sada, can you hear me?" CPR was her next course of action, focusing entirely on Sadako at the moment and not even noticing her quirk going wild, putting everyone around her in danger.
[break][break]
tl;dr
- Iphi isn't happy about being grabbed without warning and Blackwhip is also not happy (quintuple detention for Kei)[break]
- Sees Sadako come out of the water and gets very very angry at Sean (aka. Forever Alonewolf)[break]
- Blackwhip goes out of control and lashes out primarily at Sean but also out randomly, Iphi gets tunnel vision and rushes to Sadako's side and performs CPR.

[Kei Hada]

The conflicting orders between Lone Wolf and Recall have only succeeded in confusing the support student, who was let down gently once they were all on the other side compared to the way the instructors were dropped. "I'm sorry! I didn't know what else to do!" A shadow hand was emitted from him once again, but instead of reaching outward like Kei thought, it reached up to pat him on the head. Fingers carded through his hair in a soothing manner yet he couldn't help but feel put off, like someone had forgotten something important to him.

But what did they need to remember? That they had to keep moving? It didn't feel life-threatening though, he should be panicking if that were the case. He squinted hard at the shadow tendril still stroking his hair before his brows rose.

Oh.

"Oh," came his realization. "Oh you're here, I'm so sorry." He's so relieved she was here with him but god, how could he forget his own girlfriend's quirk? He flinched when a shadow fist knocked on his head lightly. "Yeah I deserved that. But if you're here, then where's-"

Before he could finish his question however, water splashed as several bodies rose from the river, causing him to step back. Gleipnir being unconscious was a concern and he didn't know who the other guy was. Then there was the man in a heavy diving suit of all things.

Kei then turned his attention to him, wariness quickly transforming into relief when he saw who was behind the mask. "Onii-san!" His brother was here too, thank god. He was glad he was okay even though they were all stuck in a weird forest. "It really is, Yaoyao's with me somehow? And the others have different Quirks? And you're in a diving suit instead of your armour? I don't know what's going on." It was a lot to take in for sure.

Yet he was surprised when Lone Wolf decided to step in between them, brows furrowing. "What?" Not real? Kei glanced at his brother before looking back at the hero teacher. "If they're not real, how are we sure you are?" He stepped back. Was there no one he could trust now? What if in reality he was the only one here and everyone else wasn't? He could feel his panic and confusion spike- right, Yaoyao was with him too. He could at least trust Yaoyao was real.

Because if he didn't he'd probably have a breakdown.

Which he was overdue for but he couldn't have one yet because Recall's tendrils decided to lash out at them all.

Kei didn't know who was real and who wasn't so he had to assume everyone was real, meaning everyone was in danger. Shadow tendrils erupted from him then, clashing at the whips as best as they could before they could get anyone. "Recall-san can you please get your shit together? We're not the bad guys here!" He was a student scolding his own teacher. What had his life come to?

---

OOC: Kei finally recognized Yaoyao's presence 🎉 he was relieved to see her and Ryota, but grew wary when Lone Wolf stated they may not be real, leading him to wonder if any of them were real. Instinct took over when Recall's quirk went out of control, with Yaoyao's own tendrils lashing out before they could get to anyone. His turn to admonish the teacher!

✧ JUST A DREAM AWAY ✧

Fear soon filled Sean's eyes, and as soon as Mark pointed his gun at him and made demands he raised his arms above his head. ''Hey, hey, hey easy! Calm down!'' His voice was trembling with fear, but that didn't stop him from airing his frustrations. ''Happy to see you too, 'bro'! Listen, I don't like this anymore than you do, but we're trapped in this shithole too!'' Sean's eyes scanned the other unfamiliar faces for a trace of sympathy. Unfortunately he couldn't have predicted the strong reaction Iphi had and was sent flying a few feet back when her Blackwhip lashed out against him. Groaning weakly in the side he slowly got back up to his knees. ''It wasn't me, I didn't do anything...'' When Iphigenia tried to get a response out of Sadako she was met with silence.

''That's wonderful Kei! I'm so glad you're okay. Yeah, I'm trying to help the others. There's a lot of people stuck in this river.'' Ryota smiled, side-eyeing Lone Wolf when he got inbetween him and his brother. ''Real? You don't trust me, Lone Wolf? We've worked together for years, of course I'm real. You're right to not trust these people, Kei.'' He crossed his arms and looked at his brother.

With a gasp Sadako finally woke up, coughing up bits of multi-colored river water onto the sand. ''Iphigenia... Everyone...'' She opened her eyes which were glowing an unnaturally vibrant shade of red. Sprouting out of her shoulder, a hand just like those from the forest lunged out at Iphi to try and grab her by the throat. At the same time, Sean's eyes began to glow the same shade of red. ''Should've killed me while you had the chance, Mark Browning.'' He hissed, holding out the palm of his hand to conjure up more disembodied hands that crawled along the sand like bloodthirsty spiders, little drones that were all beelining for Lone Wolf to try and overwhelm him.

''Kei!'' Ryota grabbed Kei by the shoulder and tugged. His eyes weren't red and he looked scared. ''We need to get out of here. The river is the only way!'' He urged Kei to follow him as he tried to drag him into the water.

''This really confirms it!'' Sadako cackled, staring at Iphi with an intense hatred. ''There isn't a single genius among you! You humans, you care so much about your own kind. Would you die for them? Then submit!!'' More flailing arms started to grow out of Sadako's body, all trying to grapple Iphi.

The Forest of Many Arms

TL;DR:
Sean fears for his life and sticks his hands up when Lone Wolf aims at him. He insists that he is real and just trying to help Sadako. Before he can, he is hit by Iphi's Black Whip and send flying a few feet. Ryota also insists that he is real and backs up Kei's suspicion of Lone Wolf and Iphigenia's identities. Sadako finally wakes up, her eyes glowing red and arms growing out of her body to try and strangle Iphi. Sean's eyes also glow red at this point as he summons hand-spiders from within himself and send an army of them after Lone Wolf trying to overwhelm him. While this is happening Ryota, with no red eyes, tugs on Kei's shoulder and insists they should run away and escape by going into the river.

The desire to shoot Sean was high. It'd be quick, it'd be easy, and accomplish his goal. But something about this interaction didn't sit right...none of it did. They were being urged on and something was clearly hunting them. This was something to slow them down, and unfortunately Mark couldn't just treat it like a speed bump. "And if you were really Sean, then you'd know the last thing I said to you, before you fucking shot me," he says, remembering the promise he made to see him behind bars.

The mass of tendrils from Iphi forced Mark to duck, glancing over at the Hadas as he grit his teeth. "Yeah, big fan of your work, Vox. Kei, if your brother ever talks to you about work, then you should know we've never worked together." And, catching that little sound byte about who might be in Kei's head, began to formulate a strategy. Especially when things started to go sideways.

"Yeah, Kei, let's not trust the only person here who's so skeptical he's given three separate work orders to the support department! One which I gave you, and with specific directions to keep that twink-looking sonuvabitch from finding out about it! Yaoyao, if you're in there, keep Mr. Twenty Leagues from dragging your boyfriend into that water! It looks like a trip and a half, and I have no intention of ruining my jacket any more than I already have!" He knew just enough about Yaoyao to get under her skin, and the mere threat of absolving himself from any responsibility of Kei served a two-fold purpose. The first was placing Kei's safety squarely within the hands of Yaoyao, wherever she was in there. Not that he doubted her zealous nature, but sometimes you had remind people to do a particular thing. The second was something that he no-doubt knew was going to bite him in the ass later, but Mark was also aware that Yaoyao was not exactly the friendliest when it came to people. If this dream world was raising red flags for her, then any person that wasn't her or Kei should trigger that hyper-aggression he knew she had.

Which lead to the new problem of Sadako and Sean. The former there wasn't much he could do; Iphi was on top of her and apparently being strangled. He figured this was all a trap, but Iphi was acting strange...must be the tendrils. Speaking of, he wouldn't be able to get close enough to help even if he wanted to. He was not the best fighter, and he didn't have a clear shot. Sean, on the other hand, was now summoning hand-spiders. Haders? Spidands? Whatever, point was that was a threat. He aimed and fired the chambers shot at Sean before shifting to the side, intending to avoid the mass coming straight at him as he reloaded. "Hey Recall, hate to be critical here, but where's that badass can-do attitude that I fell in love with?" This was going to earn him a kick in the dick later, but they were all bogged down. He had to poke the bear just a little bit so they could all get going again.

Fanthes,Iphigenia Pavlina,lonewolf,Kei Hada, Meika Hijiri

tl;dr:
-Exchanging barbs with the 'brother'
-Throws massive shade at Kei before telling Yaoyao to do her job
-Shoots at totally-not-Sean
-Signs his own death warrant (by flirting with Iphi so she uses it as fuel to kick everyone's ass)

Iphi was entirely focused on the unconscious Sadako, effectively crippled by her loss of High Spec due to it being a mutation quirk that she relied on constantly. In her mind, it was just her and her best friend who were clearly hurt by the Blackwhip having gotten Sean out of the way, and for her, this meant that one of the other two could handle it. She'd shake her once again after she was nonresponsive.

[break][break]
She was so happy to see her open her eyes that, unlike the person she had always been, she didn't realize something was off at first, and when she did, it was too late. The hands extending from Sadako's body immediately had her in their grasp and her relief turned to shock. Her shock at the situation had completely stunned her, putting her entirely at the mercy of Fauxdako.

[break][break]
The shock would turn to frustration, and then anger as she came to grips with being duped so easily. Her original quirk may have been a burden, but it wouldn't have let her be caught off guard by this. Energy would shoot out of her at the highest peak possible this time instead of lashing out wildly it would shoot skywards, the cloud of energy tendrils casting a shadow over the rest of the forest. Energy would rip through the hands and Sadako as well with Iphi being doubled over. Whether it was emotionally or physical she was clearly in a lot of pain. Unable to cage her emotions as they were running wild.
[break][break]
tl;dr
- Iphi is grabbed by Sadako[break]
- Her Blackwhip goes out of control in response to her heightened emotions, shooting up into the sky instead of lashing out [break]randomly
- She remains stationary after "killing" her best friend and is clearly hurt somehow.
