Sango Quest - Phwee Phwee Style, Phwee Phwee Grace!

[FinnKaenbyou]

>HEAVY MASHEEN GUN Let's see how effective our automatic bullets are on a shark, while they're still some distance away.

>You activate Automatic mode, firing pellets at the shark. You catch it in the face, and it flinches slightly, but it's still coming at you at almost full speed and its partner looks similarly unfazed!

OP: 1920/2500

[Hello Purvis]

>Turn and run!
>And hope we can charge up while doing so.

[FinnKaenbyou]

>Turn and run!
>And hope we can charge up while doing so.

>Turning around, you can barely outspeed these sharks. You gain a bit of ground on them, and meanwhile you're puffing for dear life. >_<
>How far do you want to charge? You know 80% is enough, and that'll take maybe 10 seconds.

>SELECT CHARGE AMOUNT:

[Kips McKipzerson]

>Get to 30% at the least. 80% knocked that shark right out of the water, right? A little less should be fine then.

[Hello Purvis]

>Sixty percent. We don't want to risk and underkill, given we're only going to have one chance good chance.
>If we think we can get away with it, go up to 100%.

[FinnKaenbyou]

>Sixty percent. We don't want to risk and underkill, given we're only going to have one chance good chance.
>If we think we can get away with it, go up to 100%.

>You puff and puff until you can puff no more. You twirl around on the spot, pressing RELEASE, and the bullet reaches its full size within a second. It's as least as large as you, and sends the shark sailing off into the distance. Its partner is still chasing after you, unfazed!
>Now you're looking backwards, you realise swimming away may have been a bad idea - Rin's exhausted herself, and she and Utsuho have sank beneath the water! She's still trying to lift them both to the surface, but she doesn't have it in her any more...!

OP: 1820/2500

[Kips McKipzerson]

>Forget the Shark, Get those two some air and to safety! If possible, Try to blow some air into the flutethingy again.

[FinnKaenbyou]

>Forget the Shark, Get those two some air and to safety! If possible, Try to blow some air into the flutethingy again.

>How do you forget the shark?! It's right in front of you, and it's going to attack if you try to dash past it. Among other things, you can't kill momentum that quickly. If you want to get around it, you'll have to circle around!
>You can definitely get some charging done, at least.
>SELECT CHARGE LEVEL:

[Kasu]

> Get to 50% and blast that jerk.
> Rush to help our friends!

[Kips McKipzerson]

Ehhh, Iunno. Maybe 40%? It's your call guys.
or 50% :V

edit: apparently purvis = all of you in my mind
>Get to 40~50% blast the jerk
>SAFE ORU FRAINDS

[FinnKaenbyou]

> Get to 50% and blast that jerk.
> Rush to help our friends!

>You take five seconds to bring your shot to half power, and release it upon the third shark. It's knocked back, reeling hard, and hangs limp in the water!
>You don't have time to stop and celebrate your victory, because Rin and Utsuho in a hell of a lot of trouble! With all your running away, though, it's a long trip to the pair, and you aren't sure if you're going to make it! Rin is losing air fast, and you don't think you can make it before she starts taking in water-
"Mgggbl!?"
Thankfully, you aren't the only one looking out for her safety. Utsuho grabs her head tightly, and pushes her lips against Rin's! Rin is blushing deeply, while Utsuho looks as emotionless as ever. The stream of bubbles coming out from both of them is weak, but it keeps them going for long enough that they're still around when you arrive!

>You see Rin turn to you, and her eyes widen. She must have thought you died in the cave-in...
"Mh...mmmmh..."
She groans, still trying to kick, but her legs just won't listen to her anymore. She's sinking, and even pooling her air with Utsuho will only last her a little longer...

>Harami's coming up from underneath. How long is she going to take, though...?

OP: 1750/2500

[Kasu]

> Grab Rin and try to drag her to the surface.  She's in the most trouble right now!

[FinnKaenbyou]

> Grab Rin and try to drag her to the surface.  She's in the most trouble right now!

>Rin refuses to let go of Utsuho, and it's slow work bringing them both up. Maybe too slow. You can keep pushing, but it's a hard call whether you'll get them to the surface in time!

[Sana]

>SWIM HARDER

[Hello Purvis]

>"LET GO SO I CAN GET YOU BOTH UP, DAMMIT!"

[FinnKaenbyou]

>"LET GO SO I CAN GET YOU BOTH UP, DAMMIT!"

>Rin shakes her head, tears in her eyes. Utsuho's in as much danger as her right now, and she's not letting her go!

>SWIM HARDER

>You're just not getting enough headway...dammit!
>The last few bubbles Rin and Utsuho were sharing drift away. You see Rin's grip growing tenser for a moment, her eyes widening, before she goes limp in your arms...

>"You're not fast enough!"
Harami finally catches up, giving you the boost you need to reach the surface. Utsuho gasps, spluttering for air, still holding onto Rin...who's looking dully upwards, eyes glazed over.
Harami grimaces.
"You don't have much time. I don't know human anatomy very well, but I assume inhaling water is as bad for you as it is for me."

[Zengar Zombolt]

>SAVE THE CAT WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU WAITING FOR
>Ponder if we could have used Release Mode for a speed boost.

[Hello Purvis]

>Did we bother to learn CPR?

[E-Nazrin]

We are learning/using above-water jump acrobatics at first possible opportunity because if we're going to be dolphin-girl we're going to fucking fight like one

[21:55] <E-Nazrin> Damnit Rou
[21:56] <E-Nazrin> I've spent the last few minutes fantasizing about the much better solution in Sango Quest of doing a massive above-water backflip over the sharks

>Get some air in our own lungs once Rin's safe, too!
>To Harumi, "Hold them off!"
>Where are the sharks right now?

[FinnKaenbyou]

>SAVE THE CAT WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU WAITING FOR
>Ponder if we could have used Release Mode for a speed boost.

>There is no cat here! There is a Rin, though.
>Releasing for momentum might have worked, but so would have cutting the middle man and offering air yourself. :V

>Did we bother to learn CPR?

>Yes, but she still has a pulse for now...

>You try to follow Utsuho's example, holding onto Rin's face and pulling her closer. You lock lips with her, pushing air into her chest, silently praying for her to come back.
!?
From nowhere, a great power begins to envelop you. Something warm, something powerful rises up inside you, travelling from you through to Rin. You see her body take on a faint glow for a moment, before fading back to normal.
Her eyes shoot open as she gasps for breath.
"Haaaaaanyaaaah!"

>New Ability: Breath of Life - Revive a recently drowned target with mouth-to-mouth. Must be performed above water, otherwise they'll immediately breathe and drown again. 500 OP

>Rin clings to you for dear life, clearly scared out of her wits.
"Sango, what's happening?! There's rocks, and sharks, and Utsuho was in trouble and I tried to help her and you have a fin and you just gave me mouth to mouth again and-aaaaaaaah!"
She's just about incoherent right now. Harami is holding onto Utsuho, who looks breathless but otherwise alright. If anything, her focus seems to be on the punctured innertube floating into the distance...
"I was hoping not to get more people involved," Harami says, looking at your two friends, "but I suppose it can't be avoided. Where do you live?"

OP: 1225/2500 (!?)

[Zengar Zombolt]

>Remember how to breathe.

[Hello Purvis]

>Swim over to join Harumi, and see how Okuu is doing.

[Sana]

>Calm Rin down before she flips out and hurts herself.

[Hello Purvis]

>Be sure to take Rin with us, of course. No use just leaving her to float out in the sea.
>Look down, how're those sharks doing?

[E-Nazrin]

>Get some air in our own lungs once Rin's safe, too!

>Where are the sharks now?
>How easy would it be to retrieve Okuu's innertube? If it'd be easy, go grab it. No need to make her sadder than she is already!
>"We live on the island, but I wanna know more first!"

[FinnKaenbyou]

>Remember how to breathe.

>You are breathing, but you don't actually feel like you have any more air than usual...strange.

>Calm Rin down before she flips out and hurts herself.

>You give Rin a hug to calm her down. She lowers her level of panic to a mild sniffle.
"Y-You'd better tell me what's going on. And who's your new friend...?"

>Swim over to join Harami, and see how Okuu is doing.

>You still hold onto Rin as you swim over. She's probably still not fit to keep herself afloat.
>Utsuho turns to you as you approach her. Her eyes widen, and immediately she breaks into a deluge of questions.
"Sango, what are you wearing? Where'd your old swimsuit go? What's that on your back? Why are you holding a whistle? What did you do to Orin?"
She doesn't sound shocked so much as interested. You aren't sure if you've ever heard Utsuho say so much at once.

>Look down, how're those sharks doing?

>Two of them are beneath the water, floating upside down and drifting along. They don't look set to get up any time soon.
>The third was the one you hit with a full-charge shot. You have a strange feeling it's not going to be in a better condition than its allies.

>How easy would it be to retrieve Okuu's innertube? If it'd be easy, go grab it. No need to make her sadder than she is already!
>"We live on the island, but I wanna know more first!"

>It's been drifting off for a couple of minutes now, and it's well out to sea. Holding onto Rin as you are, it'd probably be too hard.
>Harami sighs. "I'll give you the short version for now. The 13th War of the Waters has begun, your waters have become the Battlefield, and I've elected you as the Champion of Odonto. As a result, every minute we spend here is a minute we risk Selachi sending reinforcements to attack us again. These waters aren't safe any more, as your island will soon find out."

[Yukarin]

>...
>Wait what.

[Hello Purvis]

>"...So America is invading?"

[FinnKaenbyou]

>...
>Wait what.

>You are lost. Again.

>"...So America is invading?"

>"Not America," Harami says. "Selachi. The Nation of Sharks? Jeez, do you humans know anything about your aquatic geography?"
She grits her teeth, carrying Utsuho and swimming towards the shore.
"Just get out of the water already."

[Hello Purvis]

>Head for shore!
>Why that stupid jerk get to carry Okuu, anyways?
