Assembly [Both Schools]

Characters: Everyone and all
Format: Whatever you like
This log is: Open
Location: Battle Arena
Summary: The final assembly and the start of the final week of Rakuen begins. Players are announced as normal yet something is not right.
Warnings:
Sunday dawns grey and raining with darker clouds on the horizon. Sudents and teachers alike will probably get a sense that something is wrong when they go to breakfast, the townspeople that work in the cafeterias look grim and work in complete silence as they hand out breakfast. All screens display the same message; Please may all students report to the Battle Arena at 12 Noon for assembly.

As you make your way from Campus to the Battle Arena you will notice stares from the townspeople. The same people who once went crazy cheering you in the tournament and smile at you kindly as you wander the shops on rest day look at you warily; some even pityingly.

Dunleavy looks as grim as you will ever see her. "I warned you last week, and I don't feel that I was serious enough... Perhaps I should have done more to explain to you the importance of what you do here, why you are here and for that I apologise." Dunleavy hated apologising but in this case she was heartfelt.

"I must stress to you how important it is that you keep fighting, no matter how hard it gets. Things may get a little weird this week but I have ever faith in you all. You can fix this. Fight as much as you can, make strong vows. Protect each other. Continue working towards your goal. You know by now we are limited in what help we can give you but we will do our best to help you if you come to us." She tried a smile, it failed a little.

"I am about to announce the Players of this week but first I want to give you something. Hopefully you will not need to use them but if you do... you will know when the time is right."

Day and Nanami move to the end of the rows to hand a box with what look like plain memory charms, touching them does nothing and they explain they are to be clipped to your charm bracelets.

Once they were handed out the screen appeared and flickered to life. "The Players for this round are, for Conquest: Ein, Cirno and Suzaku Kururugi. For Fortitude: Merlin, Nanami Asagi and Sora Himoto. Good luck and please heed my warning."

And after that ominous address that explained very little Dunleavy stepped back, she stuck around though in case anyone wished to speak to her.

Sora yawned. Apparently she'd been asleep for a couple weeks or so, so she wouldn't have thought she'd be at all tired, but somehow it still happened.

The situation was kind of worrying too, with the mayor sounding so serious... some of the people she knew seemed to be missing too. Were they asleep like she had been, or was it something else?

Well, there wasn't any point in worrying about it now. She'd heard her name called, but she'd been a Player at least a couple times recently, so it was probably her turn to be a Weapon. So who should she vow with?

Asagi... she didn't know him very well, but he seemed... a bit scary. She could work with people who were a bit scary, she'd certainly done so in the past, but... not this time, she thought.

Sora... they'd done well together in the past, but didn't the mayor say once they should form bonds with many different people? (If she hadn't, it still sounded like a good idea to her!)

So that left Merlin. His class left her incredibly confused most of the time, but she still liked him. Also, there were no other choices, but that wasn't as important.

"Hey, Merlin!" she shouted as she ran over to him. "Want to vow with me?"

Merlin flinched as his memory reset, something he had come to learn meant someone was saying his name and turned to smile at Sora. One of the Sora's was a Player; he wasn't sure how they knew which one but obviously they did. And apparently it was the other Sora, which meant the Sora approaching him was a Weapon.

"Of course," he smiled, "I promise to protect you whilst you are my Weapon."

Headaches; it was something he never got used to.

"Oh, sorry about that." She'd forgotten about that... she'd always been good at remembering names, so it was hard for her to believe that someone could actually not remember their own.

"Yes! Please take care... huh?" Sora broke off when she noticed that nothing had appeared on her hand.

...

"Ehehe." She rubbed the back of her head sheepishly. "I guess I'm a player again after all..."
secretlyuseful: (oh whats going on)

Merlin smiled at her, apparently she hadn't known after all. "I hope you find some Weapons then. Maybe you could ask the other Sora?"
