Fukuhara looks grave.
"That Terminal shouldn't be able to turn someone into a Hero, not normally. It was broken when its last user was decomissioned. Miss Akiyama, its last user and currently working down the hall, asked us to try to repair it and so we're doing so currently.

The reason we're trying to keep them out of other hands is that these Terminals have the potential to grant short-lived power onto people it hasn't accepted into the Hero System using their life energy instead of the power of the Shinju to power their attacks. At least, we believe it may be able to do that. As you might imagine, nobody has wanted to test it.

This is all theoretical, of course, but nonetheless, I request that you assist us in retrieving it for the safety of the thief as well as public concerns. We would not wish this to escalate, even if the Terminal simply doesn't work."


Hikari pales.
"No way. Sachi. Sachi asked you to protect Mio?

N-never mind. And what does it matter?! That hole can be crossed either way, can't it?! Agh, dammit! Where's Sora and where's Mio?"

The moment Alanis attempts to wall it, the gash emits a loud screeching noise before shattering it. Her magesight, the moment she stares upon it, just shuts off, followed with shooting pains into Alanis' head.

just offscreen

Hikari shakes her head, looking absolutely terrified.
"N-no. T-this is bad. V-very bad. If there's a hole in the barrier...t-this close to the centre...t-the Vertex have a hole straight t-to the Shinju-sama.

A-and then......t-that's it. W-we're all.....done for...."

Considering that the shrine is in fact an urban area surrounded by a road on the other side and two houses to the left, there's probably no point in looking for woods.

Not that that matters. Alanis checks her texts and, well....she can judge for herself.
From: Sachi H.
RE: My sister.

Alanis has but moments to ponder how Sachi's name got onto her contacts list before the message's body jumps out at her. The contents immediately surprise her.

The address is familiar, as is the name of Sachi's sister; the familiarity suddenly comes back to her. Alanis finally remembers who Sachi resembles as she reads the name once, then twice to confirm it. Suddenly, her insane guesses seem far less insane. Suddenly, it all clicks in Alanis' head.

Mio Honda.

The address maps specifically to Mio's house. The name, unmistakably, says Mio Honda. There is only one conclusion.

Before he can say anything to Mio, however, Hikari speaks up as the phones of the Hero Club members go off.
"F-Forestize Warning? What the-!"
"Everyone! Get read-"
Everyone at the shrine is consumed by a bright light and a whoosh, blinding them entirely to their surroundings.

Unknown Phase
The Jukai

When everyone stops being momentarily blinded, their vision slowly fades in to see that they stand in the Jukai, the barrier between the outside world and Kamogawa. If they look around, Mio and Sora are missing; only Hikari of the three is present, staring at something just out of vision for now.

The landscape is as psychedelic as always, almost entirely dominated by roots of all shapes, colours and sizes, with the giant Shinju tree behind the group. There is only one thing of notice, as everyone slowly looks towards where Hikari is staring.

A giant, jagged gash in the Jukai, directly in front of them, inches in the air off where Hikari is standing.

Beyond, a corridor of swirling flame leading into the distance can be seen, leading to some unknowable doom. Somehow, you feel something about this corridor, about this gash, is wrong.

It seems this isn't her first time sleeping on people's shoulders while walking. Don't ask how it works. Your mortal brain is too squishy to comprehend it.

15501

Hana thinks about the implications of this while checking out Lidia's butt having fallen asleep on Ray's shoulder.

15504
Suddenly, Alanis' phone starts vibrating! It's a message!

"Keep behind me and...."
Suddenly, all the doors swing open. Fukuhara reaches to his back, presumably for a weapon, when a man approaches them.
"Sir! The thief! They got away!"
"They did? What did they take?"
"A-A terminal, sir! They took one of the defective Hero terminals!"

15505

"It isn't? C-can you at least, like, I dunno, make it appear?" Hikari doesn't sound as enthusiastic as she was before.

15510
The presence is......unaffected and seemingly still ignoring It that Embraces.
"Is it the maiden? Oh god, I think we're actually seeing a real life ghost! S-Sora, take a picture!"
"Chizuru would go crazy seeing this!" Sora fumbles about in her satchel, looking for what is presumably a camera.

The presence doesn't react to mana. Huh.

Mio taps Eirika on the shoulder.
"Eirika?"
