[Action: Amagi Inn]

[It's only been a week since the place sprung up from the ground and Yukiko has been hard at work trying to clean the place up. After the first contact, the city had mentioned a company that would send people over to become her new staff. Only problem is that they won't arrive until next week, without a doubt due to the Grand Prix coming up. At first Yukiko was fine with it and she could get things straightened around so it would be nice for the soon-to-be workers.

She didn't expect any kind of pest problem to occur. And not just any kind of pests like the normal bugs, rats, or others. These buggers were demons. Not just any demons...

Pyro Jacks.

Those little bastards who were half the reason why the holidays went crazy are relaxing in her hot spring and having a lovely time. Well, until Yukiko showed up.]

GET OUT OF HERE!!!

[That's the polite way to say it...]

[Video: Glasses Vision]

[When the video turns on, the first thing people will notice that it's dark with little spots of floating light popping up. And is that...laughter? Damn pumpkin thing!]

I have a pest problem right now: Pyro Jacks have somehow decided to invade this place and I need them out before any damage can get done!

[Wood and fire? Yeah, do not mix. Even with Amaterasu standing there for light purposes, it's not helping the situation.]

If anyone has ice powers, an ice persona, or can get rid of pests, I can use your help at the inn in Scorpio. I don't have much for payment but when it opens, I can at least give you a free night's stay.

[Now if you excuse her, she has some Pyro Jacks to boot out.]

[...You have got to teach her that someday, Riku. Just saying. Because that is awesome.]

I guess you won't have any problems keeping up, then.

[Grinning, she summons her Glider and takes off. Got a bead on that familiar heart there, so she'll lead the way~]

[Maybe he will someday. Maybe. ~~Especially if she teaches him how to use Gliders because really, those are just as awesome.~~

He rolls his eyes, but grins as he launches himself after her, glad she is taking the lead actually, he has to keep an eye open for fitting surfaces to take advantage off to keep Flow Motion going.]

[. . .]

I'll stop by.

See how many you can drive into the hotsprings and shit.

[She hid her copy in her underwear drawer.]

We'll need a lot to get these things out-

[There's another crash. Dammit you stupid pumpkin demons!]

But that was the first place they were at.

[Why do that?]

[Good plan. Never let her know you have a video copy she will flip.]

...A friend is coming with me. We'll be there in five minutes or less.

[Or your pumpkin demon freezing is free!]

Yeah.

But it'll easier to drive 'em out if a bunch of them are in one place. Though anywhere outside'll work, if they just won't leave after that.

Going to try to scare them off, so it's better that they're inside and around to wreck shit when they panic and give me room to work. If you're going to going to drive them out, y'need to give them an obvious place to scram to, not chase them around an inn like they're some sort of rat you can't catch worth a damn. Unless you want them to make your inn into a battleground.

I can help out, if you need any. Susano-o's only got wind attacks, but at least it's better than fire?

[Hmm...] Should we kill them? I mean, they're total jerks but they're not evil.

I just want them out. Not talking about killing them.

[Them being on ice won't kill them...just hurt them slightly. Maybe.]

[Settle for a free night instead?]

I'll see you then.

[Them panic? Nah, she seems to be the one doing that. The pyro jacks on the other hand are enjoying her going a little crazy. However, she's not going in blind by setting everything on fire: Amaterasu is out mainly for light purposes as well as a flashlight.]

Got any ideas on how to get them there? I doubt there's anything here that they want.

[It's pretty much empty and not much to steal.]

I have some frost skills, and I've some experience with pests in general...

[A pause.]

And these 'Pyro Jacks'.

[So using her Persona's out. Guess that's obvious, or she wouldn've been using it to kick their asses already.]

If you can't force them, you're gonna have to lure them.

[He hesitates, his footsteps leading him through Scorpio in the direction she had specified. He's getting close.]

Make them curious, maybe. Give the bastards a reason to follow you. They're demons, aren't they? If they ain't stirrin' up shit, they're out looking for it.

[He certainly watched the mischievous little assholes set a dog's tail on fire.]

Also helps that they're pretty stupid.

"I don't have ice skills, but perhaps a confrontational approach may not be the best? The Pyro Jacks I spoke to didn't seem to be the most stable individuals and could cause structural damage to whatever place you are trying to get them out of."

"I'm a demon myself and a leader of demons. If icing them fails, I could try to convince them to leave."

[NOT THE DOGS.]

So they have a short attention span then...

[So what else do these demons want more than...and she just had a thought.]

I think I have an idea.

[And she ends her line. Yes Shinji, she's going to start singing a certain song now. You might hear it when you get close enough.]

[Um....okay.

He lights as small a Holy spell as he can in his hand over his head, allowing for a circle of light-seemed like a better choice than a fire spell- and went into the Inn.

He followed the sounds further into the inn until one of those little creatures came barreling at his face. A mid-powered ice spell took care of it, but it made his concern go up a bit.]

Miss? You alright?

I think they're just doing this to annoy me, not to cause damage.

[Because they're assholes it seems.]

Did they do something to you before the holiday too?

You would do that?

[Where were they during the holidays???]

[She heard the voice...it sounded like the man she was just talking with a few minutes ago. And he got one of the pests!]

I'm alright!

[Well, she did just recently manage to call Skeith out...and Skeith does have that one ice spell. (The fact that Skeith is able to do that merits some research; after all, when you get frozen, you-)

But that will come later.]

Right, where's the inn then?

"Do you think they can see through a hologram?"

...I'll be right over, babe!

[OH GODS WHY.]

[WAIT WAT NO]

W-wait, you don't even know where I am in Scorpio!
