╞══════════════════════════════BIZARRE SLIME══════════════════════════════╡ You begin to run over to the headmaster's office, twisting and turning corners and avoiding crowds of running monster girls. Why was Tia put under the Imperius curse? Who would've put it on her? What did they want with you, could they be the shadowmancers? All these questions sweep through your mind with ease. You turn a corner and catch site of the long, stone hall that leads to his office. You slow down your sprint and begin to lightly tread -- security in this hall is high. You reach the end of the long hall, where a large wooden door stands bordered by metal. Next to it is an old-styled security terminal with green text. You move your head down to it and gaze at it's screen.
PLEASE INPUT NAME You place your hands upon the old terminal's keyboard and input your name. These type of terminals must be rare -- they're just so old. You'd expect the headmaster of Promas to use fancy holograms or even some kind of magic entry system, but maybe this fits his personal style. After all, he is pretty mysterious. The doors in front of you suddenly swing open, causing you to quickly jump back to avoid it's swiftness.
"Come inside." his familiar old voice calls out. You gradually stride inside the office. The office has an overall 'old' feeling to it -- many magic artifacts are mounted up onto the wall and tables laid across the corners, the floor has a dark and light pattern with the reflection of a bright yellow light, which is a large crystal chandelier hanging onto the ceiling. Then you slowly approach his desk, a well-carved and glossed desk with sheets of parchment and pens scattered across it, as well as an old computer and an orange table lamp which shines brightly down on the parchment. You shift your eyes off the desk and up to his face, at his steel blue eyes and an almost emotionless expression. A smile finds his way onto his face as he moves his fingers up and through his long, grey beard. He gives his clear half-moon glasses a slight nudge before he removes his hand and looks up to you in acknowledgment.
"You called for me, sir?" you state, gazing down into his steel blue eyes. The old man waves his hand and shakes his head in disapproval.
"Simply refer to me as 'professor'." he insists as he adjusts his spectacles.
"Yes, professor." you meekly say. He leans down below his desk and pulls out an oaken drawer, moving his hand into it and rummaging around for something. He then pulls out a grey armband with a sword icon stitched onto it, which piques your interest. The old man lays it down on the desktop and slides it over.
"Well, welcome to the PST." he affirms with a smile. You tilt your head in a perplexed manner.
"The PST?" you question.
"The Promas Student Taskforce. I was hoping to recruit you after the Colors contest, but the need was great." he explains.
"Erm, why me, professor?" you ask.
"Several reasons. Mr. Knuckles has boasted to me about you being able to conjure a patronus at such a young age -- and not to mention that even I know that you are a formidable combatant," he says, motioning his hand in clarification as he does so.
"You're creative, pure of heart, easy to work with. Some of the other Colors may join as well, in fact, the contest may even need to be delayed because of the recent problems." he continues.
"Is there something that needs to be done -- against the shadowmancers?" you ask inquisitively.
"Yes, yes, quite so. In fact, I already have your first assignment ready. Would you be able to deploy in say -- tomorrow?" he asks.
"T- Tomorrow?" you stammer in surprise.
"I already have transportation arranged and everything. I assumed you won't mind, since you're such an excellent student -- top marks in class and everything," he says with a chuckle hidden beneath his breath.
"U-Uhm, what is my task..?" you ask with negative things crossing your mind. Crossing volcanoes in gusto to defeat evil magicians who seek to destroy the world, scrying the whole face of the Earth for a magical artifact -- escorting a VIP through deadly shadowmancer territory, fending against creatures of the highest might and ferocity-
"Quite simple, and doubly impo
rtantly as well. I wish for you to go on a research mission -- go to Death City. Recent intelligence reports that they have knowledge of advanced defensive magic. As you know, it's currently impossible to conjure a passive shield bubble around the school, but Death City seems to exhibit some sort of shield around itself. You will speak to the city's leader," he stops as a dreadful and truthful look stains his face.
",death himself." he continues. The direct manifestation of death -- the leader of Death City? It doesn't surprise you, a knockover city like Deathville doesn't have a leader like that.
"Well, I trust that is all. And of course, you will be assigned a partner which should be coming here an- Ah, there he is!" Aberthorn says as he jerks his head over to the door behind you, which creaks open as a figure steps through. The brown-haired boy with brown eyes steps through in a nervous fashion, twiddling his thumbs like he's done something wrong.
"L- Look, I swear I didn- Violet?" Johan stammers before turning his head to you in utter perplexity. Professor Abethorn meagerly chuckles as he shakes his head.
"This young man will be your partner." he simply states, observing Johan's now-flabbergasted face.

Aberthorn finishes discussing the mission plan with Johan, who meekly nods in approval. Johan turns his head over to you, his guitar case strapped on his back now shining in the chandelier's yellow light. A smile cracks on his face as he gives a thumbs up and turns back to the headmaster.
"Your escort will arrive at 7:00 AM sharp tomorrow outside school gates. Your destination is Death City, located in what used to be Nevada, USA. Keep wary about using magic in the city, however -- it caused them quite a bit of grief decades ago." he says. He stands up from his chair, his headmaster robes shown. He motions over to the door in dismissal.
"You are dismissed. The situation with the Imperius curse has been dealt with, but the suspect has not been caught." he says as the two of you exit his office. Johan shifts a glance over to you as the two of you walk side-by-side through the stone hallway, the wood door slamming behind you.
"So, you accept the offer?" he asks with a smirk.
"I thought about it, and... Yeah." you respond. Johan simply nods.
"I'm sure they have good restaurants in Death City." he remarks as you and him move out the dark, stone-walled hallway and into the now calm school commons area.
One hour left until you should head to bed.
The time is 8:00 PM.If needed, you could create a rune of imprisonment, but you believe that you won't be able to control any more runes after that unless you remove any you already have. Also, transfiguring a crystal prison may take too much energy. It may be a more viable option to instead transmute the prison, or find another method to binding an enemy. ◘Character Information◘ ----------------------------------
