"Noble Phantasms ... No! Cosplayers!

SHUT ALREADY! NOBODY CARES! .. I'LL CALL THE COPS!"

Forget my mission and fall back to ingrained social responses: Troll the Asian cartoon cosplayers.
Edit: Angerly yell at these people and hope they stop pretending to be in an anime.

Clarify your action; also, they're not cosplayers :).

Nathan doesn't know that, so he is going to yell at them with all the fury someone who's spent the better part of a year stuck living with a roommate who watches loud anime late at night, and who is now lost and confused and would love to have something familiar to fall back on, like yelling at anime nerds.

But you don't remember your backstory!

Boxcar is excused from this because he gets a new 500 page backstory every three minutes or so. All of them are true.

Look around. I know  we're on a street, but what's around the street? And is there any cover nearby?

Turn 4

Quote from: vishdafish
Attempt to awaken
[2-1(Fatigue)= 2(Failguard)] You continue to soar the horizon.

Quote from: NRDL
Take a look at my surroundings.
[3] Facing the opposite direction of the, what you make out to be, battle cries, you only notice small buildings, houses, grocery stores, and a park down the opposite street.

Quote from: Dermonster
Μήδεια? Μια δίκαιη παρθενική! Πρέπει να συστηθώ. Awaken, and seek the maiden!
[2-2(Unconscious)= 2(Failguard)] You continue to mumble whatever comes to mind.

Quote from: Nirur Torir

[6] You've had enough of the yelling, the lights, the clashing. So. You take off into the light! [Speed: 11] You run so fast, Usain Bolt would be impressed! For some reason, you have this innate feeling of hatred towards anime-related things. You use this feeling to push yourself forwards. Faster, faster, faster! Your legs begin to cave, but you won't let them. You continue to push yourself until you can see another light. There! You finally reach the destination and fall to your knees, breathing heavily. But, whew, that was a long run. You turn back, and try to figure out where you are. No matters. You turn back around. It's a large parking lot. A shadow begins to creep past a column and you run behind a building. You move your head slightly into range to see who's coming. The first thing you notice is a blinding light. You put your hand over your eyes to focus. A man with white hair, wearing some sort of brass-colored armor made of a metal that you can't detect. A large red cape flows behind him. That's odd, the cape is moving, but there's no wind. You get the strange feeling the cape isn't any ordinary cape you'd get on Amazon. He grins, "My dear, Medea, you know best that you are no match for me." His grin immediately turns flat as the ground in front of him suddenly explodes. He jumps back a few inches and laughs. "You dare attack me?". Who is he talking about? What is he talking about? You try to focus right before the explosion. You do remember a faint purple light, but you just thought it was a glare. Could it have been something else?

[6] (There's really nothing much to this town; it's not like a warzone or anything.)
You look around and inspect every inch of the environment. The road is paved with concrete as the sidewalks. The houses look like regular ol' houses, windows and everything. You noticed Nathan heading left towards the loud noises.

Background: [5] Nathan notices another shadow, across from the man with the white hair. But...there's no one standing there.

((Well, I meant to stand and yell. If I can hear their yells, they can hear my yells.))

In between desperate gasps for breath, try to figure out what's with that weird shadow-invisibility thing and that flowing cape.

For those who are unconscious and who want to assist the unconscious, there is no need as the status of unconscious innately lasts for 2-3 turns.
