Who: Caster, Oichi, and many others who want to stop them
What: The atrocities begin. The Church will be the first to go.
Where: The Church
When: 1/18/12, during the first sermon
Warnings: Fair amount of violence and gore



The noise had fortunately died down in time for Sunday where drones would customarily flock fraction at a time for worship down at the Church. Without distraction and interruption, the drones and others are allowed to fill the pews and listen to nothing but the word of God interpreted by the drone pastor. Usually a male, he would incorporate his message to achieving prosperity in Mayfield and urge the other drones to be thankful for what they have. The doors closed and the drones sang their hymns along with the melody of the pipe organ an old woman played just at the corner of the room.

They seated themselves. But the organ did not stop. The old woman's hands were off the keys, yes, but from somewhere, the hymn continued. The drones didn't pay this any heed and continued on as if they heard nothing. It was exactly that, however. To them, there is nothing to respond to because there should be no organs playing at this time. The time for hymns has ended long past. This did not stop the song from outside, however. The organ played on, grew louder, and filled the room where the congregation sat.

The doors once closed for the sermon swung open. A robed man with dirty, messy hair and bulging, frog-like eyes barged into the room accompanied by a quiet, morose woman. Caster closed his eyes and stretched out his arms, basking in the warmth of light that filled the room. The drone pastor stopped and told the man to quickly be seated, but it was Caster's turn to ignore him.

"Now! Friends! Now, and forevermore, we stand together here once more in pursuit of salvation that has long since been snatched away by God Himself! The damned are forever damned and the lost and forgotten will forever be abandoned. Our suffering, our cries, do nothing but amuse Him even more!

Then, then what are we, the broken, to do...? If God insists on depriving us of Paradise, why, we shall take it back! We will create our own Paradise here on this world through pleasures and sin the likes of which He, that divine clown, could never have concocted during Genesis. Let us plant the seeds of our Paradise now, starting in one of His houses that He has blessed!

O Lord! Receive my praise! Receive my hate! With a heart filled with jubilation, I shall drag you, venerated God, down from your sanctum! There is beauty within blasphemies, decadence, and sin and it is through that beauty where we make our stand and create our new Eden!

Innocent lambs, feel with every fiber and cell of your being, the salvation that I offer you!"

As Gilles' speech rolled on, the drones found their body involuntarily convulsing. They all felt from within their stomachs something growing. It clawed out at every direction, ever organ, to break free, biting and screaming all the while. Teeth and tentacles ripped through the drones' skin and bodies without anybody spared. The demons cried out into the air, spitting blood and red mist, as if singing along with the hymn that Caster had been playing.

A pipe organ made from flesh sits outside, playing on its own. Its discordant melody spreads through the air, beckoning those near the Church to come. The invitation, of course, is not only limited to the townspeople. Its pierces through worlds and dimensions, drawing forth the creatures that God had hidden away from mortal eyes for being far too terrifying, too flawed. Drones around the Church were torn apart from the inside, leaving only Caster's sea demons to replace them. The Church itself began to turn to flesh as it was consumed little by little by the overwhelming number of monsters.

From within, Caster cackled and danced, spinning around, joyously, at the garden of sin he created.

"Come, come to me! There is none but I, Gilles de Rais, who stands so firmly at the center of Heaven and Hell! Come to me, and I shall lead you! I shall rule you! To those who are shackled, crippled, and forsaken, this is the day we indulge and drink deep from our sins!"

OOC: Feel free to divide into groups! There are people who should hold off the demons seeping out of the Church and those who should storm in and tear a new one into the Master and Servant

[There are very few people who can reason with Oichi in this state. It takes far too much patience. And the more upset she gets, the more lost she is in her delusions. The shadows still lash about violently, but begin to retreat into a tighter circle around Oichi. They are easy to avoid if one keeps their distance from her. She is watching Ciel sadly, tears in her eyes.]

Why...?

Why must everything end like this? Why is my fate always blood, flame, and tears?

[There isn't any flame this time, but it's not like she's checked into reality.]

[The blades strike the shield of flesh and indeed, they have a greater effect than an average sword would. Imbued with a special property to exorcise spiritual beings, the flesh is burnt through and just for a moment, Ciel could take a glimpse of Caster, whose face was contorted with a mixture of awe and horror. The flesh barrier immediately closes due to its regenerative properties. Caster watches the battle intently, especially Oichi, seeing how things may turn out.]

Oh... Oichi, my dear... You have fallen so far and you've realized the true form of despair... and yet, you still cling onto your chance for salvation even if it means you must walk through a path of decadence...

... Jeanne... Do you hear me, Jeanne? Is this the struggle that you were not able to survive, forgetting all that you have experienced in your life instead...?

[She can only narrow her eyes at the glimpse of Caster.

In the end, as futile an attempt it may be, she will fight that Servant. She doesn't know what he's done, but there's no doubt that whatever this woman's condition is, the Servant may only worsen it. The prospects are poor, but ultimately, this is the decision that she shall choose in trying to put an end to this blood-drenched madness.

The newly summoned set of Keys don't leave her hand.

His voice was loud and clear. Surprisingly so, despite his dubious physical appearance.

Jeanne.

Can it be?

But she's already aware. The Grail has been tainted since the 3rd Heaven's Feel, at which point summoning irregular heroes became possible. Sakura Matou confirmed it.

This...

She veers towards Caster, but keeps her distance.]


SERVANT! What is your name?

[A pointless question, perhaps. What's the significance of asking the name of someone you will be trying to kill? He may not even answer her, but given the importance of Joan of Arc not only to Catholicism but to France as well, she had to try.]
