Chisato Madison (Star Ocean: The Second Story) |
|||
BtS's devoted madwoman is ready to crack some skulls and take down a puny Suikoden mage by the name of Bernadette Egan! A water rune is something that doesn't scare Chisato much - healing just means that she'll have more time than usual to pound her poor hapless opponent face-first into the dirt, through the dirt, past Morte's body, straight through Gilgamesh and right into Nate Nanjo, the brat. What makes it worse for the S5 mage is her ability to halve Bern's already pathetic water based offense, leaving her pretty much stuck with a Suikoden mage physical to attempt to match her refined Nedian martial arts. From Whirlwind to Tear Gas to Rising Dragon, Chisato's got all the attacks she needs to wipe those ugly eyebrows off of Bernadette's face -and prove all of her smug doubters wrong. Call her a pathetic light? After this season, there will be no more of that. |

The vice-captain of the Lino En Culdes flagship Bernadette Egan has successfully won her first RPGDL match; however, a much greater challenge awaits her now: Behind the Scenes' own Chisato Madison. Bernadette is used to keeping those with more unique personalities in line, but this is her first time dealing with someone as homicidal as Chisato. Luckily for Bernadette, her Flowing Rune provides all the healing she needs to handle any attempted murders by Chisato, and ice spells with which to cool down the journalist's fiery personality. Bernadette also has a seemingly limitless supply of throwing knives to use on the chance that she runs out of spell charges. All things considered, Bernadette should have little trouble moving on to the semifinals, although she may want to watch her back the next time she appears on Behind the Scenes. |
Taishyr -In the Arena- "Glad to see you made it out here!" Chisato catcalled, having changed into her fighting clothes and her cocky attitude. "Get up here so I can beat your sorry butt into tomorrow!" "Chisato..." Bernadette said. "Chisato! It was Nate that called me." "What?" Chisato said, slightly startled by this turn of events. "It was Nate on the line. He said that he's been trying to contact you, but all your phones have been off." Bernadette hesitated, a tear in her eye. "I'm sorry, Chisato. I'm really sorry." "What about? You haven't done anything wron..." Bernadette whispered, "You're fired, Chisato. Effective immediately. They're replacing you with Jogurt and Kuja." The silence was broken by tremors, slowly beginning to shake the Arena floor. Bernadette looked up at Chisato, white with rage. "THAT - LITTLE - HE - WHY I'M GONNNA...!" -Before the Match, waiting room- "Bernadette?" The young woman looked up from her book to see her opponent standing there, glowering a bit. "The match is about to start. We should get out there." "You're right, Chisato. Thanks." As she stood up, Chisato shifted uncomfortably. "Look... Bernadette..." "What is it?" Looking away, Chisato said quietly, "Don't let this go beyond these walls, but... I know this will be a good fight, and whoever wins, I..." She closed her eyes and clenched her fists, then said, "Good luck, Bernadette." Bernadette's eyes widened. "Ah... thank you, Chisato. Good luck to you, too!" Just then, Bern's cell phone rang. Chisato quirked an eyebrow. "Heh, turned my cell phones off while I was training. Didn't know you Suikoden people bothered with technology, though..." "Only Behind the Scenes." Bernadette quipped. Chisato chuckled. "Oh, Behind the Scenes, how I love you so. The only place I can legally and fully vent my holy fury in the Dueling League. Well, hurry out once you're done." Chisato left, and Bernadette answered the phone. "Plan Furious Rage is go, I take it?" the voice on the other end said. "Although I now have some regret, yes, the plan is go, but there is... one modification." "I dislike modifications. What are you suggesting?" "Only that... she will come to you in a rage. Deny any involvment of whatever she accuses you of. It should be easy, you'll be telling the truth." "...you were supposed to tell her that you had incriminating photos of her. What has changed, Bernadette?" A slight smirk. "I think I know how to push her buttons better than that." "...Just make sure the job gets done." A click, and Bernadette threw the phone on the floor. Not like it'd be ever used after this, she reflected. -After the Match, DL Hospital- Bernadette idly watched the telly's reports of having to rebuild the stadium - again. *Coming out of Chisato's pocket, too. And I didn't even have to say that Nate said Kuja's fashion sense was better...* She chuckled a bit to herself, then stopped as the door open. Nate stepped in, and Bernadette gave an audible sigh of relief. "Told you that plan would work better." "Heh." Nate took a seat by her, and pulled a mound of cash out of his pocket. "Here's three-fourths of the insurance money on that building. You earned it. Although..." Nate paused. "I never imagined her fury would nuke the entire stadium." "She loves BtS, as much as she's loath to admit it to any of you." Bernadette confessed. "I know. She's also good enough that I keep her on." Nate chuckled. "This really was a brilliant plan on your part - get her angry, get me to insure the building, I collect 1/4, you get 3/4 and a free pass to the next round, and best of all, we get to deal with an angry Chisato who's been gypped out of a month's pay." "Of course." Bernadette grinned. A pen finished writing this down, and the wielder smirked a bit. Stepping away from the hospital room's door, Chisato's shoes could be heard clicking with vengeance all the way down the hall... Chisato Madison: 29 DjinnandTonic
