"Hrrm...Maybe this one...?" Velvet crowe would ask, Using a single finger to poke at a random Key on the Keyboard before her. Velvet had wandered into one of Porky's many hundreds of computer rooms, Completely dazed and turned around from the plenitude of Technology well beyond her time, as she pecked the 'L' Key, and suddenly making a 'L' Appear on the long line on the screen. "...Oh. I see. So its like a Book?" She would say, Pecking at a 'P' Key, and Making a 'P' Appear as well.' "...Erm, Well, something like that." Velvet would mumble, before looking for a Key that said 'Open way home'...No such luck, It seemed, as Velvet ran a hand in her raven black hair in desperation for a solution. "Maybe its Enter..." She would simply state, before pressing the Enter key. And, on sheer accident, the Screen would blink off, and simply say

_{"LP Not found! Enter a different name of a person!"}

_{"________________"}

"...So, it finds people?" Velvet asked, staring at the keys, and sighing a little solemnly. "Laphicet would have this figured out in a few seconds...Hm..." Velvet would look at the screen, before pecking at the keys once more, curious. "L...A...P...H...I...C..E...T. Enter."

_{"Laphicet...Not Found! Enter a Different name!"}

"Tch..." Velvet would sigh...But, then, simply tryping in a new name. 'A R T O R I A S'...

_{"Artorias...Two Results!"}

_{"Sir Artorias - Location ; Life Sphere - Race: ? (check later for Result) - Age: ?"}

_{"Artorias Collbrande - Location ; Life Sphere - Race: Human - Age: 32"}

Velvet's eyes widened, slamming her fist on the console in anger, teeth baring. "Artorias...Your in this...Life Sphere place?! Fine...Good! Ill find you, and ill make you pay! Your days are numbered!" Velvet would scream at...Well, Nothing, particularly, Before suddenly turning to see two figures behind her.





"We found her...You, follow her trail, Ill report back to Artorias and his teams!" The Plumed helmet Exorcist would say, running away from Velvet, as the other followed, Drawing a blade to fight Velvet...

---

Standing outside of the North Gate, Quote, Jeremy, Curly, Satan and Taokaka would stand about in a circle, looking at the door. Quote would stare among the group....Satan was busy adjusting his hair to look extra dazzling, Jeremy was practicing his Pick up lines in a One-sided Window, Taokaka was trying to sneak up on Curly to Catch herself a boob, and Curly was sneaking up on Taokaka to Pet the Tao! "...Well, This seems like a group of winners. " Quote would say begrudgingly, Loading up his Polar Star. "Curly, Tao, stop circling one another and get ready to fight!" He would say, Right before Curly and Tao were ready to pounce on one another. "H-huh?? Oh, Right! C'mon Kitty, I'll pet those ears later~" Curly would say, as Tao giggles as the three ran into the north door...

"H-huh? H-hey, i wanted the Robot's with me!!" Satan would say, sighing sadly as he realized he'd be stuck with Mister Big in Boston, as Jeremy would stroll up to the Demon, using his hand to ruffle up her hair. "Ah, Don' Start with that, C'mon, It'll be fun meetin' a dame like that! Im gonna ask her for a Date, Ehehe~ Ladies like her just need a man to wine her and dine 'er~" Scout would say, strolling to the eastern door to cut Velvet off...Only for Satan to shake his head. "Well, Atleast i know i wont die first." Satan would say, Rolling his eyes and floating along to follow him...

Sitting at the Soulthern Entrance door, an Exorcist was awaiting Valorie and Witch, Holding a Spear in hand as he peered around to see the two, awaiting there arrival. However, Before the two could arrive, Artorias Collbrande would stroll onto the Exorcist, nodding. "Are you prepared with the seal?" He would ask, as the exorcist nodded. "Yeah...But, Artorias, sir, Why do we want to 'Catch' Her, exactly? Wouldnt it be much more expedient to simply kill her and be done with it, she is a Daemon after all..." The Exorcist would say, as Artorias thought for a moment.



"Im afraid this matter is personal to me. All will be revealed in due time. Just tell Valorie and...Witch, To take the path i laid out for them. Team's C and B will corral Velvet into the main Planning Room of the West Wing. There, she cant escape." Artorias would say, as the Exorcist simply saluted, as Artorias walked inside...

"We're almost there." Valorie softly remarked. The normally tiny deerling was much bigger than usual, for the explicit purpose of carrying Witch on her back like a horse. It was hard work, but for some reasons she was slightly afraid to think too hard about, she really enjoyed it. It was... clearly just that they were close friends and she enjoyed the bonding! Yeah! That's what it was.  "...I can see the ruined factory from here. I hope I was a good ride~ Hehe" she bashfully remarked. Of course, she was a pretty gentle ride all things to consider, and with only one rider this time she'd been able to move a bit faster where the terrain was level. "I really enjoyed giving you a ride..." Valorie began, only to fluster herself with her train of thought as she struggled to find a way make that sentence sound less odd. "...It's nice to... be this close and bond like this." she shyly added, hoping Witch simply understood. "Once we're there, I wanna go back to being human. I feel comfortable when I'm with you, but ... I don't feel pretty, or confident like this. Y'know? It's nice to be myself around others--especially enemies." Valorie explained.  Once they arrived though, she allowed herself to slowly begin shrinking back down to size, hoping that Witch would simply put her feet on the ground and get up. Otherwise, she'd wind up getting squished under booty on accident before returning to her human form with a small gasp of relief.

"I see a... I'm not sure if that's a boy or a girl Something tells me white outfits like that don't stay white without regular washing, so they must be from the life sphere. In fact, he kind of resembles Artorias, don't you think? They look pretty pious all things considered."

[Coolshaymin]

Witch was relaxing on Valorie's back, the deerling being much roomier than last time with her being the only passenger. "Oh hey, there it is. Gotta say, these factories are pretty interesting. I never understood a thing of how any of the mechanicsms work, hopefully you'll be able to help a witch on that front," Witch said as she looked at the designated place to capture this Crowe girl. Not going to lie, she had a fair bit of skepticism in this mission and did not fully trust these holy knight type guys but she'll stay quiet and help for now. Besides, an excuse to ride such a soft girl's back was satisfying enough to make the trip. "Huh? Oh, yeah, it was a nice and relaxing trip. Much more comfortable than riding a broom. We should do this more often like on the way back~," she stated confidently. "What kind of girl would not love a small and beautiful deerling to ride into the field of battle~?" She added with a giggle. "I think you are pretty in both forms myself but suit yourself. Wouldn't want the Crowe Girl to try and hitch a ride anyway," Witch finished before grabbing her grip on her Potions bag and broomstick before stepping off. As much as she'd love to tease Valorie of the situation by staying in sitting position, they did have a job to do and people  watching... Probably on the way back if she let her.

"Is a bit hard to tell with that heavy armor, huh? You're right though, looks like the same stuff as that Artorias guy. This seems to be one of those exorcists guys. Wonder what kind of thing they pray to... Oh well, let's say hi!" Witch replied before stepping over to the "Hello! I am Witch and this is my girl friend, Valorie. I take it you are guarding the Southern entrance or did we miss it on the way?" she asked... intentionally phrasing her introduction in a teasing manner to fluster her in jest.

[PolarStarQuote]

"Valorie, Witch?" The Exorcist would say in reply to them, simply giving a solemn nod to Witch's introduction. "Right through here. Team B and C are already working on pushing Velvet through to you both, Your a key part to this plan." The Exorcist would say, before producing a Old looking piece of paper, ink written on it from top to bottom, as it seemed to be an entire Map of the West wing, A Blue Line detailing Team B's route, a Yellow line for Team C, and for Valorie and Witch, A Red Line leading up to the Head Meeting Room. "This is where Velvet will be lead to. Three Exorcists and Malak's are awaiting there to create a magic seal that will keep Velvet paralyzed. All you need to do is keep her in the room in the mean time." The Exorcist would dutifully explain, Nodding as he would give the Map to Witch, Thinking her the Map understanding type.


"Im simply staying here as last resort, encase Velvet escapes past you. But, im certain with all six of you, that shouldn't be a problem." The Exorcist would say, before opening the door...



Huh. Surprisingly clean hallway, as it seemed quite luckily for Valorie and Witch, it would be a straight shot to there goal of the center meeting room...

---

"Tch...Well, good to know im on the right path at least!" Velvet would say, Dragging the corpse of an Exorcist in her claw, looking around as she seemed fairly lost through the catacombs of Porky's factory, Angrily stomping along as she dragged the corpse of the exorcist, Only stopping upon hearing a rampant storm of footsteps, Leading to a sudden stop from Velvet, The Daemon suddenly diving behind a desk to hide as soon, A Duo of a Green-haired man and Red-dressed boy would come from the shadows. "Are you sure your readin' that thing right? This place dont look like the type to need a Map. Besides, my lady-sensin' skill are pretty top notch anyways!" Scout would say, Swinging his Aluminum bat around as Satan would duck to avoid a swing against his horns! "And that is exactly why im the leader! As soon as we find this Velvet, sooner we can trophify her and be done with it." Satan would say in response, To which Velvet would narrow her eyes.

"Trophify me...What the hell does that mean?" Velvet would ask under her breath, Narrowing her eyes, and gripping the exorcist's jacket tighter, Before suddenly rising up and chuckling the limp-bodied Exorcist at Satan, Knocking the Dark Prince away! "G-ghurk!" Satan would fly off with a sudden Slap, as Velvet stepped to Scout, Narrowing eyes as her Claw would emerge once more.

"W-woah-ho-ho, Hey there Baby, Before we get too far...If i said ya' had a nice bod, Would ya' hold it against me?" Scout would ask, Smiling as he adjusted his Bat over his shoulder, as Velvet simply stayed quiet, walking closer. "Tell me how to get out, and get out of the way. Or else..." Velvet threatened, narrowing eyes. "Or eeelse...?" Scout asked, Clearly uncaught up on what on earth he was actually hunting. "Or else, I'll swallow you whole!" Velvet would yell, Lunging forward and instead, Her Claw vanishing and she presented an open palm! "Shadow Flow!" She would unleash her Hidden Arte, as Scout was suddenly covered in a Bubble of Slowing magic, Pressing him down into the ground as he gasped in pain!

"Hey, Dirty trick throwing someone instead of fighting for real!!" Satan would say, Pushing the Limp exorcist off, and suddenly producing two Demonic Bladed wheels with his Demon Scythe tome, Throwing the bladed scepters forward, Only for Velvet to Duck and Roll away, Suddenly Bolting away, in just the way Satan had intended! "Haha! Come on Scout, The chase is on!"

"....U-uh, Little help?" Scout asked, still trapped in Shadow Flow's Bubble. "Ugh..." Satan would say, Begrudgingly moving to help.


Running down the hall, Velvet would find her way in a Cross Roads, Looking down several possible path's. "Which one's the exit..." Velvet would growl, looking around, to see the western path would lead to a red door, A Fire Escape! Velvet would start running in that direction, Before suddenly, A Giant bolt of Black Lightning would shoot from the Northern hall, Hitting the roof and causing a small collapse, blocking the path to the Fire exit! "Huh?! Magic...?" Velvet would ask, turning around to suddenly see--

"TAO'S GONNA SQUEEZE YER' BOOBS!"

"W-what?!" Velvet would ask, wide eyed and flushing red as suddenly, Tao would Lunge at Velvet full force, roping her arms around Velvet's waist and burying herself...Hey, Where on earth was she trying to stuff herself?! Velvet would turn a bright red, eye twitching as Quote aimed his Polar Star forward. "Tao, Get out of the way!!" Quote would say, as Curly would gasp. "W-was she trying to do that to me?! Eeewww...!" Curly would say, shaking her head, as Velvet would suddenly grab Taokaka's head, tearing her out of her busom and kicking her away. "You cant stop me, Tore-up Lady! Tao's gonna get them if its the last thing she does, Nya-ha~!" Taokaka would threaten, as Velvet would growl, Producing her  Consuming claw 0nce more! "Devour!" Velvet would shout, Suddenly slashing Taokaka across the chest with her Claw, Theriorizing with Beastman ability, and then leaping back. "Stay away! Blue Inferno!" Velvet would say, suddenly launching off two sets of Fire Magic, Whipping across the entrance, and Blocking Quote, Curly and Taokaka off with a wall of tall blue flames, Before Velvet turned to see Scout and Satan running down the Eastern hall she just came down. Growling, she would simply start fleeing down the soulthern hall...Right into the Meeting room, where Valorie and Witch were awaiting.

---

The loud sounds of Loud Conflict and Screaming would emerge north of Valorie and Witch, as suddenly the doors would fling open, Velvet running into the room, turning around to see if any of the previous combatants she was fighting were following...Only to turn and see the two blondie's in her way, as Velvet narrowed her eyes.



"Out of the way!" Velvet quickly and bluntly said, Her Arm Blade appearing with a loud Schink! "Before you two get any bright ideas like that Cat Beastman..." Velvet would say, Shuddering a little...Today was way too weird. Regardless, Velvet's expression was mostly full of Rage, as well as a bit of confusion at her new situation, as she stood ready to fight if need be. "I wont hurt you unless you make me..." She would Warn to Witch and Valorie. "Just tell me where to leave!"

[Mari]

Valorie thought about Witch's response for a moment. ...How could she be cute in both forms? They shared nothing in common. ...Did they? It was a nice thing to be told to be sure, but it mostly just left her feeling weird and confused. She tried not to worry about it though. Entering, Valorie was surprised at how quickly they encountered someone else! It took Valorie three seconds of looking Velvet's outfit over to know everything she needed to know. As a dedicated fashionista, this girl... was clearly nuttier than the gourmet peanut butter she was hoarding in her room. "...Iiii don't think I've ever met a cat I would describe as bright..." Valorie began, only to wither under Velvet's gaze. She seemed like a bit of a coward judging by how easily intimidated she was. At an entire 4'9'', she really didn't seem like the type of person that you'd expect to see doing any fighting. You could confuse her for a kid if it weren't for her slightly more mature figure. "There's... an exit behind us." Valorie weakly relented. "B-But the air is toxic. Like, so toxic it even kills the ghosts. I don't even understand how that works, but it's actually really scary? If you leave without someone to guide you to safety, you could ... die. Possibly twice." Valorie explained, squirming a bit where she stood in discomfort. It was all fun and games until someone got stabbed, and she was not good at dealing with pain or fear.

[Coolshaymin]

Witch looked around at the room for a moment. Well, this was certainly the place to set up her plan... Whether or not it was the plan the employer wanted though was another matter entirely. That was when the woman showed up in her tattered clothes. Witch finished with setting up a potion, putting in a orange strand of hair that seemed to mix in instantly. "Yeah, there is an infection and there are guards out that way too. Don't worry though, I have a plan to get you out of here but you'll owe me for it, alright?" Witch stated as she walked over to the woman, brushing aside her concerns and handing her a potion in a flask. "It's a Potion that allows you to take someone else's form. You just have to not do anything that'll tell you otherwise... Oh yeah, fair warning, her essence is the only one I have on me right now so... You'll see if you take it," Witch elaborated as she then walked back.

Of course the essence she used for the Polymorph was Arle's Essence which... had some entertaining results in her mind. She knew that Velvet might hold more information and if she chose to co-operate then she could get some information on this group... Or that was what her intentions was anyway.

[PolarStarQuote]

"...." Velvet would soon sheathe her arm blade, glaring at Valorie and Witch with a raised brow. Were they...Trying to lead her out? To Safety? From what Velvet gathered she was the Witch in a Witch Hunt-- No Offense to the actual witch in the room, But what would inspire these two to help her? Granted, she did just bark a demand about where to find the exit, but providing a potion to help lead her out? That was something different.

Velvet would walk to witch, Meeting her half way and taking the potion in the flask, before glaring at the two. "...Why help me? Didnt they tell you im a monster or something?"  Velvet would ask, Seeming to be understandably suspect of the two's attitude. However, Soon a rumbling from the back hall would come, A stampede of Five Footsteps would emerge, as Velvet sighed. "...If this hurts me in any way, I'll devour you." Velvet would threaten to Witch, Before quickly downing the contents of the flask, Slowly shifting and changing, becoming smaller, More brighter in color, Until eventually...

...



"Aha! Finally, We caught up to-- *SQUEEE~!* Arley~!" Satan would say, quickly running up to the new face in the room and, all too suddenly, Wrapping around his arms to her. "Oh, stay close to me my dear, There's a terrible monster afoot! I will protect you!" Satan would say, to which...




Velvet, would simply look...Uncomfortably at Satan. "...Let go of me right now." Velvet would demand, though through the voice of Arle, it sounded quite a bit less threatening, But, Instead of being let go, Velvet would find herself hugged tighter! "Oh, How could i ever let you go Arley, You poor thing, You must be frightened sick of--" Satan would say, only to spontaneously receive Varle, Jamming a Fist in his jaw. It seemed to be the same hand Velvet's Arm blade was on...But thankfully, due to Arle's Bracers, it was hidden as Varle just straight up Socked Satan!




"G-gah! Arley, Thats not the usual beating you give me..." Satan would softly say, Rubbing his jaw in shock, as soon, the rest of the gang would emerge.

"Huh? Since when was Arle Here?" Quote would ask, as Curly would just smile happily. "Hey Arle!~ Were Catching a monster!" She would say, to which Scout would just look around. "Dammit, Where da' hell could she'a gone..." Scout would say, turning over and running off in a different direction, as it seemed Taokaka was wandered off...



"...So my name is Arle, i take it?" Velvet would lean into Witch and Valorie, Whispering to them to keep somewhat under wraps about her identity. "Erm...I came here to Help. But, im feeling a bit under the weather..." Velvet would say, Trying to play a Voice that seemed more 'Natural' for Arle, as opposed to Natural for Velvet, as Quote and Curly shrugged. "Hmm...Maybe you should rest at home then, Arle, Starvia's no joke." Quote would say, as Curly would nod. "Mmhm! Here, Lets go looking for her down here!" Curly would say, running off down a hall, with Quote quickly behind. 



"Hmmm..." Satan would seem to be unconvinced, looking at Varle quite negatively. "...Witch, When did Arle show up?" He would ask the Witch, knowing her abilities quite well. "She certainly wasnt in the mission briefing. Quite odd for her to just jump out of nowhere." Satan would say, as Arle would just raise a brow.




"...*Cough Cough.*" Varle would cough audibly, hoping to play up the Sick aspect she felt, But staying a bit behind Witch and Valorie, hoping they would help defend her by some extent.

[Mari]

Valorie timidly held a hand to her heart, as if to physically still it. "Well--Yeah, ...they did. Buuut I stopped really understanding what a 'monster' is after monsters started talking and holding jobs and beating up bad guys for us and stuff. I'm never really sure what someone means when they say that anymore..." Valorie thoughtfully began. "...Plus, I really don't like fighting girls. I'd really just rather not." Valorie went on to explain.

...And then Witch transformed Velvet into--Arle?? Valorie did a double take. ...Why did Witch just happen to have a potion like that at the ready? She didn't remember ever seeing Witch around the Magical Girl's Society. Did she hang out with Arle a lot outside of it? Before she could figure that out thought, Satan started questioning things. "...That's because she's supposed to be resting. We tried to tell her not to come, but you know Arle. Always working too hard." Valorie lamented, shrugging helplessly at the situation. "--Normally that's okay because she likes what she does, but not when she's sick. I think that cough is getting worse!" Valorie remarked, feigning concerned frustration at 'Varle'. "Honestly, we should probably take her back to the Magical Girl's Society. We just have to convince her to let us. C'mon Arle... See how many heroes are already on this? You should rest." Valorie very gently chastised.

[Coolshaymin]

"The same people could consider Witches monsters too. As far as I'm concerned the one being called the monster is more trustworthy," Witch adds with a wink as she insisted. She didn't have much a choice really, she'd be cornered and outnumbered otherwise. "Devour me? Huh, funny how that's another similarity. Trust me," she finished, adding the last part in a whisper. She then stepped back and watched her potion do it's magic.

She had to do her best to stifle a laugh at Satan getting socked after trying to attach to the ruse. She was certainly getting some form of enjoyment out of this at least. The plan was working wonderfully too... Until she made the flaw of underestimating just how intelligent and perceptive Satan was. Fortunately Valorie knew Arle just about as well as they all did. "Yep, even a basic spell incantation can be a problem for her with that cough," she says looking back at Velvet with a pointed look. "I thought it'd be amusing at first but now it's gotten kind of concerning. Come on Arle, if you're contagious it'd just jeopardize us," she continued, turning around. Her plan did not really account for discovery which would make it undeniably harder so hopefully they could fool him a bit.

[PolarStarQuote]

Satan's inquisitive nature seemed to take from either Witch or Valorie's accounts with a visible grain of salt, as he looked to Arle with his gaze, staring into Velvet!Arle's aggresive eyes with a quiet ponder...Before Satan smiled. "Oh, well of course! Arle has been working so hard lately, i see no reason for her to put herself in a line of fire like this!" He said, stepping aside, as Velvet, without mising a step, started trying to walk right past Satan, Before Satan tried yet another of his antics, and moving his head to get a quick cheek kiss in...

"Searing--!" Velvet would angrily cast, Suddenly her arm unleashing an unusual looking fireball at Satan,  as if it came from some unseen blade from Arle's arm, making Satan gasp! "A-ah, it IS Arle! T-the fire, so familiar~!" Satan would yelp as he stumbled back with a sear on his chest, as Velvet looked to Valorie and Witch with a brow. 'Erm...Oh no. I insist, Please let me help, I can-- *Cough cough*..." Velvet would try to act up against valorie and Witch's wishes, Though still rather caught aback, her acting skills not quite up to par, Though with the sick excuse, Velvet seemed to be selling it, as Taokaka, Curly, Quote and the Scout seemed to be busy exploring elsewhere instead of interrogating Arle further.

"Erm-- Yes, that sounds good. Lets go to the Magical Girl Society. This cold is weighing on me..." Velvet Acted, Letting Valorie and Witch lead the way as they made it further from the group, and to an Exit...

"...Who IS That Creep?" Velvet asked once they were out of the earshot of Satan, Clearly very uncomfortable. "And does...'Arle' Have to deal with this every day? Sounds miserable..." Velvet would say with a huff as she walked...

"...Thanks." She would softly say to Witch. "Your alot better than the magician i usually adventure with...And the help is appreciated." She said, then looking to Valorie. "...Monsters are a label that horrible men use to lock others down, and submit them to there reign. The Real Monsters...Are the ones who betray friends...There own Family, For there own benefit..." Velvet said with a great deal of venom in her voice, very unbefitting of the Arle-ified mouth it came from. 


"...So if someones after me, i can only imagine its the Abbey, and...Artorius." Velvet would say, the hate in that last word physical in the air. "...Glad to see your not some sheep to them. I owe you." Velvet would say as they walked, before looking a bit more to Valorie... "...Whats the 'Magcal Girl Society?' So if anyone asks, i dont seem like im drawing a blank."

[Valorie Ryder]

Valorie chuckled at Velvet's distress at Satan's antics, leaning in to answer her quietly. “...Yeah~ She's really pretty and famous, so she attracts a lot of unwanted attention.” Valorie replied in a matter-o-fact tone. “Honestly, there are days when it just sucks to be a girl in general. Mostly because of creeps like that. There are kidnappers, pervs, and creepy otakus that steal your clothes for cosplays! We're basically underworld currency to some of those people.” she added, a bit too honest to be gentle about that fact. “No problem! ...The Magical Girl's Society is a sisterhood for girls to take care of and look out for each other. Technically you don't actually have to be magical to join. It's named that because they'll teach you magic if you want to learn.” Valorie thoughtfully explained.
