Return from Gemworld.
Date of Scene: 23 November 2018
Location: Manhattan, New York City
Synopsis: Summary needed
Cast of Characters: Amethyst, Josef Forster




Amethyst has posed:
Evening in Manhattan. The streets aren't as empty as they could be at this hour because of Black Friday. Shoppers with bags wander the sidewalks, hail taxis or Ubers and the general noise of the city masks the flickers of purple energy and occasional sound like the world is trying to tear a hole in itself.

Josef Forster has posed:
Josef Forster is casually strolling home after getting his much delayed lunch, so much so it became dinner, and stops as he catches the sight of purple distortions, groaning with a harsh sigh, "Oy vey, this is a loooong day....What now?....I swear, if this is another gang of weirdos starting a war in the streets, I'm moving." He grumbles out as he stops to watch the light show, scratching at his chin in contemplation.

Amethyst has posed:
The purple flashes grow more concise. In the middle of the road, just about a car a portal tears open. Creatures tumble out, their hides a mix of color and pattern in the most chaotic of ways. They bounce off the car and scramble to the street with hisses and spits. Tumbling after, Amethyst clad in magical armor with sword in hand falls through and rolls to the street with a huff as the air is knocked out of her.
    The creatures of chaos spot passer-bys and immediately give chase. Their kobold like forms chasing shoppers and clawing at them and their bags, or charging at cars with wild laughter and screeching.

Josef Forster has posed:
Josef Forster stares in blank annoyance, ".....Damn you, New York. You win this round...." He brushes past the practicedly panicking crowds as they begin their seagull-esque flight of terror, letting out a sharp whistle to the creatures as he gets a clear line of sight, "Hey! Uglies! Over here!" He loudly yells out, clearly trying to get their attention and call down the thunder. Amethyst herself goes unremarked, either ignored, forgotten, or simply not unnoticed in all the commotion.

Amethyst has posed:
Some of the chaos monsters rush Josef. One's hit by a car and hits the street becoming a shapeless pile of oil-like goo. The ones charging have their hands in front, hoping to claw their prey to ribbons.
     Rolling to her feet, Amethyst gives her blade a roll and hits her chest a few times before shaking off the fall and rushing in to protect some shoppers. The blade morphs to claws of amethyst covered magic as she rakes through some of the creatures. "You have no business here cretins!" Her voice carrying in whatever Josef's native tongue is, as well as the others on the street.

Josef Forster has posed:
Josef Forster takes a boxer stance, letting out a long breath as he focuses on the monsters rushing him. As the nearest one pounces and is just about to reach him, he suddenly moves like blur, ducking under it with a thunderous uppercut to it's chest and sending it sailing into the air....Likely resulting in an oily goo rain all over everyone in the vicinity. Without missing a beat, the blur continues, sharply kicking the next monster in the side and sending it slamming into a nearby parked car hard enough to rock the thing back on two tires for a moment, and likely kersploding the abberation. In a last burst, the blur that is Josef lunges down, catching the third in the pack with it's claws down with a right to the face hard enough to crack the cement behind it as it bursts like a balloon full of grenades. He then straightens up, leaning back and putting a hand to his head as he takes a few steadying breaths, apparently disoriented by this.

Amethyst has posed:
Chaos rains and bubbles in an ichor. Likewise, Amethyst wails on monsters and cuts them down with her claws with grunts of effort. "If everyone could get clear of the area!" She calls out and looks to a car as four of the chaos creatures scrabble to get into it. She gets jumped by a pair, one on each arm as she tries to wrangle them off her and into goo. The efforts of Josef don't go unnoticed and she looks for him as she hoists one monster overhead to slam into the pavement. "The car!" She calls out and gestures with a sweep of her hand before focusing on the last creature on her.

Josef Forster has posed:
Josef Forster shakes his head a few times, blinking the disorientation away before Amethyst calls out the car, "Huh? Wha-?" He shakes his head a few more times and manages to focus beasts attacking the car, charging over at least as fast as any olympic athlete ever charged anything ever, slowing only as he gets there to punt one monster into another, sending them both careening into a building a good sixty feet away, before leaping over the car to land on and crush the other two. Promptly ruining this heroic rescue by tripping on their goo as they dissolve, "Whoa, shit!" He exclaims panickedly as he falls flat on his face, quickly hopping up and dusting himself off, "Nobody saw that, right? What? Right."

Amethyst has posed:
Amethyst is busy wrestling a stone from one of the monster's hands before just blasting it with a flare of light off her claws and destroying the thing. Bending over to pick up a sapphire pendant, she cleans it off with a grimace and looks around. The piles of goo seem to be rolling together and towards the portal. "I'm not gonna make it." she breathes and starts running towards the portal. Most of the blob makes it through before it shuts with a fzzt. The remainder of the goop falls to the street and turns a greenish sort of gray. It bubbles with a foul scent and she slows to a walk, covering her mouth.

Josef Forster has posed:
Josef Forster gets once more tripped and falls right on his face as the goo yanks him off his feet to return to the portal. He once more hops right up and dusts himself off, "Yeah uh....Yeah, I cant lie about that one, can I?" He asks seemingly no one as he turns around to check on the family in the car, all of them huddled in fear away from him, "....Ohhh, that's gonna become a thing, isn't?" He once more remarks to himself as he strolls around the side of the car towards Amethyst, "Hey, pretty in purple, you ok? Also, whaaaaaaat?"

Amethyst has posed:
"Ugh. Stinks." Amethyst looks over at Josef and around. "Ok is...no, but this has to get cleansed." She says through the fluttering silk pressed over her nose and mouth. "It's pure chaos in this state. I need...." She looks around. "Oh, glass. That could do in a pinch." She says half talking to herself and walks briskly to a building with a broken window from the brawl. She glances at Josef. "You're quick, and strong. Glad you could throw in." She tells him with a brief smile.

Josef Forster has posed:
Josef Forster smirks at the compliment, "You're not half bad yourself. Also, whaaaaaaaaaaaat?" It seems he's still very confused about the sudden arrival of cthuloid horrors from beyond the veil. Must be new. He just stands there, staring with a look of dry confusion.

Amethyst has posed:
"Chaos-it's-it's under control." Amethyst says and comes back over. Holding a stack of glass out, she makes a disc of amethyst energy over it and shines it like a magnifying glass onto the bubbling pile of chaos as it begins to dry and shriek like a lobster in the pot. "It's raw, gibbering madness. Quarts would have been better mind you, but in a pinch." The princess shrugs faintly. "These creatures have been plaguing my world more and more lately." She explains quietly. "It's not an easy one to get to either. Which is cause for alarm in itself."

Josef Forster has posed:
Josef Forster blankly blinks a few times at Amethyst as she explains all this like it's normal, ".....Cool....I'm uh....I'm'a go home now....Take a shower...Not get attacked by horrific nightmare creatures the likes of which mortal men should not know to exist...You uh....You have fun...playin with...your....glass.....Yeah..........Bye." He snarks before turning on heel and starting to walk away, stopping after a few feet to look back, ".....I'm gonna regret asking, I just know it....But uh....You gonna be ok?.....Need a place to stay?" He clearly sounds worried the answers will be no and yes in that order, but at least he's asking.

Amethyst has posed:
Amethyst blinks at that and looks up from her work. She wets her lips, clearly considering her answer and his offer. "It's not my first time getting stuck on Earth. I'll be ok. Is the Justice League still a thing?" She asks and looks back down, adjusting the light a little with a hand gesture. "If there's still a Justice League I think I'll be ok."

Josef Forster has posed:
Josef Forster visibly and audibly sighs with relief, miming wiping sweat from his brow, "Oh thank Buddah. I think the League is still around....Assuming nothing cataclysmic happened in the last day or two. " He pauses for a moment before groaning, "Oh yeah....Hey, could ya do me a favor. If this gets media attention....And this being New York, I'm sure the livestreams are still going, and it's all over Youtube already. Could ya put in a good word for me? I'd like not to have my apartment bombed for doing my good deed for the day if I can help it."

Amethyst has posed:
Looking over, Amy gives the chaos a final zap and walks over. "Why yould your apartment be bombed? Are you in peril?" She asks and blinks before correcting herself. "I mean, trouble." The purple and gold clad princess propping her fists on her hips a moment. "You are a capable seeming individual-" She indicates the fallout around them from the fight. "But you did assist me. If you need the help returned sometime, just ask." She offers and looks about to get her bearings to stride off towards the Hall of Justice.
