BOSS: SHADOW OF A CRYING WOMAN
HP: 94%
Status: Frozen
Items: None

The Woman dodged only a couple of attacks that the trio had laid out for her. Unfortunately for her, she didn't dodge a lot of they're attacks and was hit face first in all of them. Some of them did hit parts of her body which caused bits of her body parts to fall off, only for her to regenerate new body parts that she lost.

Nana's attack was one of the attacks that the woman got hit with and she proceeded to freeze. Which prevented her from moving until the next turn where she can try to break out.

Until then the trio have a chance to launch another attack on her before she tries to break free.

Aran Ryan was in his element. Since this ghost was of the punch-able variety, he was able to dish out a large amount of damage, while only have to worry about potential counterattacks. Seeing his Eskimo friends get hit with the fire blasts was worrying, but they seemed to be hanging on. 'This is perfect.' He thought.

When Nana and Popo recovered, they couldn't do as much damage as he could, but they were able to unleash a blast of cold wind. This wasn't normal icy wind, either. It was cold enough to freeze the ghost on contact. 'Now this is perfect!' 

With the hilarity of an otherwise threatening pyrokinetic ghost frozen in place with an angry look on its face on his mind, Aran Ryan couldn't help but burst out laughing. 

"HAHAHAHA! Look at ya'! Ya' look like a cheap ghost-flavored popsicle! And an ugly one at that. I mean just LOOK at ya'!"

After he finished his flurry of punches, he decided to kick things up a notch. He leapt back an impressive distance, before sprinting forward, and leaping into the ghost. Head first.

“We got her!” Popo confirmed upon seeing the Woman freeze. He wrenched a little at the sight of her re-growing lost limbs but it did well to quell any doubt he had in easing up on her.

“That’s allota damage!” Nana giggled in delight at Aran’s taunting. He was doing good work on the front of the ghost, leaving her wide open for the Ice Climber’s mallets at the back. It was like wobbling with a third member.
Seeing Aran back up and prepare to head butt the Ghost Woman, Popo signalled Nana to back out of the way, so he had room to work.

As much as the shadow woman tried, it had failed to escape it's state that the Ice Climbers had put it in and since she is near death now thanks to the trio's attacks. The woman was desperate to stop them whatever it took and so started to fire out it's most powerful attacks that it had on her towards the trio in a last ditch effort to stop them.

Aran Ryan was determined to stay on the offensive. The ghost didn't seem any angrier at him than it already was, but that was alright. He was only angry about messing up the headbutt. Normally it didn't bother him, but in this case, it was rather embarrassing. He had had cases where he aimed at a bad spot, or accidentally hit with his nose instead of his forehead, but either of those mistakes were preferable to simply flopping onto the floor, with a painful thud. He was never going to live this down.

It didn't help matters that as soon as he got up, the ghost somehow managed to unleash another fire attack.

XnK2AI5Op_1d20+3(Just barely dodged)

Aran Ryan was quick on his feet, and managed to just barely avoid the flames. All that attempt did was make him angry. He was gonna finish this battle, before it could escape from its current condition. He unleashed a multitude of jabs, hoping that they would be enough to end the fight in short order.

The Shadow Woman, while managing to dodge most of the attacks, was still headbutted by Aran and got pierced by two of the Ice Climber's icicle. It knew it was going to die any second now, but she was not finished just yet. Wanting to finish off this fight with a bang, the woman shot out a large fire blast towards the trio in an attempt to finish them off!

Aran Ryan, being somewhat tired after his last flurry of punches, wouldn't be quick enough to dodge the ghost's most powerful fire attack. Instead, he decided to use his bubble shield for the second time. This turned out not to be enough, though. As his bubble shield finally shattered, Aran Ryan was hit with the remaining embers, which managed to singe him quite badly. This only slowed him down, somewhat, however. He knew he could survive it, and there was still a ghost in need of a pummeling.

The Shadow woman was destroyed, leaving nothing but black gunk which soon vanished. After a tough fight, the battle was over, and they managed to activate one of the generators. "Hello?" The trio would hear a familiar voice in there minds, two in fact, it was Mitsuru and Paula.

"We heard fighting up there. I suppose you all just finished fighting someone that was getting in the way of stopping the generators." Paula spoke through the minds of the trio.

"Hang in there you three, you still need to locate the second generator, which should be on the fifth floor at the back of the meeting room. The door should be unlocked but be careful if you run into anymore enemies...Or worse. Me and Polestar-chan are still locating the generator down here, I think were getting near it." Mitsuru told the trio.

"Good luck!" Paula chimed in as the two girls stopped speaking to the trio, leaving them free to explore the other levels of the dormitory.

The next floor they went up on was the girl's dormitory and it had multiple rooms just like the floor below the group. If the group would look at the doors to the girl's room they would discover that one of the room's was Mitsuru's. As her name was hanging by one of the doors.

There was also another name at the door beside Mitsuru's old room that didn't look like it lost any words like the other rooms on this floor. The name was simply "Aigis" and the door was unlocked.

Meanwhile there were three other names, but there names were scratched out.

HAUKO ARI
YKARI TAK
FKA YAMA

The first door also appeared to have blood on it and signs that someone tried to break in there. But unlike the doors to the boy's dormitory, all of the doors were unlocked on this floor. The trio can explore this floor, or head on to the next floor where the next generator was.

Unlike the last two floors, the floor which only had two large wooden doors in front of the stairs was almost dark and hard to see due to the fact that there was no power on this floor and above until the group can find the next generator. Which is supposedly behind this door, which would lead into a meeting room that the members of SEES would go to before starting a mission.

If the trio opened the door they would find that the room was dark...And a hint that they weren't alone again. Because if they looked closer in the room, they would see another figure.

It looked like a child and he was standing by a window at the back of the room, looking out at the cave surrounding the dorms.

The Ghost was turned into a black paste, before disappearing. Aran Ryan was burnt, but didn't have too much to worry about aside from that. Shame he didn't have a burn heal, though. Looking to the parka-clad duo, he saw that they were pretty beat up after the last battle. He crouched next to them while inspecting their burns.

"You two gonna be alright?" He said, a bit surprised they managed to endure such an onslaught. "D'ya need me ta' get ya' some water?"

He didn't have any water on him currently, but figured there had to be a water fountain somewhere in the dorm. Otherwise, the both of them would just have to wait it out. Before he could move on, Mitsuru and Paula began speaking to them telepathically. At first it was surprising, but Aran Ryan found the advice that Mitsuru gave them fairly useful.

"Fifth floor, meeting room. Got it! Thanks, sword girl." Aran Ryan said aloud, hoping they could hear him.

Walking up the stairs to the fourth floor, which Aran Ryan found to be a nice change of pace, the trio saw that the girl's dorm was fairly similar to the boy's dorm. Aran Ryan figured there must be something useful on this floor.

"This looks interesting. Say, how 'bout you two go to Mitsuru's room, and I'll go into the room with the intact lettering? Remember though, we can't stay here forever. Let's just look around a bit, then leave. Let's do it quickly, too. Speed is key for this floor. Remember that."

Aran Ryan then began walking over to inspect Aigis' room. He was a bit uneasy about the fact that he would be searching through a girl's room, but he figured they wouldn't mind.

“We did it!” “We beat her!” The smoking Ice Climbers cheered in unison as they celebrated by hopping up and down together. It didn’t take much hopping for them to realize how sore they were. Stopping and looking at each other, each realized the other looked as bad as they felt.
“You’re all burnt!” Popo gasped at Nana.
“So are you!” She gasped back before they both turned to Aran. “You are too!”

“Some ice please.” Popo took Aran up on his offer of water.
“Ice ice baby.” Nana could only pant. A sudden voice in their heads would delay their refreshments.

“Who’s there?” Popo looked at Nana and then at Aran. Neither of their lips were moving.
Nana was checking if she had flicked the music player back on by accident.
Neither of their assumptions were correct; it was Paula speaking to them telepathically.
“There was fighting.” Popo confirmed with a deep breath.
“We kicked butt!” Nana flaunted in her head. They both listened carefully…as carefully as they can to her instructions.
“The meating room?” Popo asked out loud to make sure.
“But we’re vegetarian.” Nana protested, but before they could get another word in, Paula hung up.
“…Guess we’re going.” Popo shrugged as they were all alone with Aran once again.

“One generator down,” Nana counted
“Two to go!” Popo counted. They commenced their quest with a high five, from which they both reeled in pain.
Even they could admit they were in no shape to smash through the ceiling again, so they humbly followed Mr. Ryan up the stairs to the next floor.
Nana was the first to recognize it was the girl’s dormitory by the pink colors that matched her parka. The parts that weren’t burnt anyway.

“Hey look!” She jumped up and ran up to a specific door. “It’s Mitsuru’s room!”
“Let’s explore it.” Popo nodded, agreeing with Aran’s plan. “But first…” He lead on, reaching into this parka to pull out… an Apple?

“Snack time!” Popo announced, pulling out a salad for Nana.
“For you too!” He announced, pulling out a watermelon for Aran to eat. How did he fit that in his parka?

((the Ice Climbers eat Food and share with Aran to restore their health.))
“So much better…” Nana sighed with satisfied pats to her tummy.
“Hup hup?” Popo summoned her to follow him into Mitsuru’s room.
“Yup yup!” Nana followed him in. “Later, Jacky-Boy~.”

With they're stomachs now full, the trio were ready to face any dangers in the SEES meeting room, but first it seems they have decided to stick around on the girls floor to investigate Mitsuru and Aigis room. The two rooms were very different from each other.

When Aran entered Aigis room, he would of almost trip over a wire lying out in front of him, in fact the entire room was filled with wires and cables that almost covered the floor. They're was machinery in the spot where a bed would be, instead, it was just a chair with the machinery attached to it. If Aran tried to turn it on he would find that the machines did not work anymore, in fact, judging by the large amount of dust in the room it hasn't been used recently. They're was nothing else to be found in this room, but it seems that this Aigis was a robot of some kind.

Maybe Mitsuru will have more information?

Speaking of Mitsuru, in the room the Ice Climbers went in, they would find that the room was very posh looking and elegant in style. Helped by the lights that were now shining in the room thanks to the first generator. Should they look into the closet next to them, they would find multiple dresses some normal looking clothes like a girl like Mitsuru would usually wear and some...Odd looking clothes that don't look appropriate.

Oh and theres a maids outfit...Other then that. They're was nothing else to be found in this room either.

Except for a diary...That is, if Popo and Nana want to look at it, however, should they do they would find that the diary is locked.

Aran Ryan walked toward Aigis' room, watermelon in hand. He appreciated the generosity, but wasn't expecting Popo to give him an entire watermelon. Still though, he wasn't going to complain about being given free food, and quickly finished off the Watermelon in record time.

5XqUc9BIp_1d3+1

Afterwards, he took a look inside Aigis' room, and was shocked at what he saw. It seemed like there wasn't anything in here that he would expect from a dorm room. Instead, there was a total mess of wires that Aran Ryan didn't even want to touch for fear of, somehow, being electrocuted.

He decided to simply close the door and move on. Looking at the various rooms in the dorm, there didn't seem to be any that caught his eye except for one. A blood-stained, partially broken door that didn't seem to have any lettering on it. He wasn't sure about going in there before, but since Aigis' room didn't seem to have anything useful, he was curious. Walking over to the battered, bloody door, he attempted to open it up, to see what could be inside. If something hostile was inside, he could fight it, but since he was still recovering from being burned, he would be at a disadvantage. Then again, he did like a challenge, so maybe getting into a fight wouldn't be too bad.

“Very posh looking…” Popo critiqued as he and Nana began to investigate Mitsuru’s room.
“Elegant in style~!” Nana commented, letting her wrist go limp in her flamboyant gesture. She was somehow drawn, either by sheer curiosity or girlish intuition, to Mitsuru’s closet.
“Jackpot!” She squealed at all the clothes. Wearing the same parka every day for as long as she has, any sort of new clothing came as an exciting find to Nana.

In what would be a modeling montage if this were a video instead of a roleplaying post, Nana tried on every outfit she could get her mittens on. Even the was odd looking clothes that didn’t look appropriate. None of it fit her, none the least because she didn’t bother to take her own parka off first.

On the opposite corner of the room, the Ice Climber far more cautious and hesitant about searching a girl’s room, Popo found what might actually be a clue: a book. Not just any book, a Diary.
“Nana! Look!” Popo called holding up the book for her to see. Nana herself was nowhere to be seen.
“…Nana?” And right on cue, bursting forth from the closet, draped in what was no doubt Misturu’s most fashionable wear, Nana strut down the runway toward her lesser dressed partner.
“You called, Popo~?” She casually answered, striking a stylishly aloof pose.

“Quit fooling around.” Popo retorted deadpan. “I’ve found something!” He eagerly showed her the book.
“What is it?” Nana asked showing much more interest this time.
“Maybe Mitsuru’s Diary!” Popo speculated, not completely sure from the cover. “But it’s locked.”
There was indeed a lock on the cover.
“Where’s the key?” Nana asked another important question, rotating the book in her hands looking for it.
“Maybe Mitsuru knows!” Popo once again deduced with a snap of his mitten. “Let’s ask her!” He urged her to go get Aran so they can go track her down.
“Wait’ll she sees~.” Nana giggled, confident Mitsuru’ll love her new look.
