"Okay... So I guess I have somewhere to go and why now... Might as well." Shrugging casually, the exorcist steps off the pedestal they'd awoken atop of, taking one more stretch as they take their first steps on their journey.
'First I gotta find out who sent that holographic message fresh out the clone wars and why. As well as figure out where this goofy ass place even is. As well as whether or not I can get out of here through conventional means.
Well, step might be the wrong word. Seeing as instead of planting her feet, the exorcist's limbs dangled below as she hovered a few inches off the floor. 'That... That's gonna be quite useful.' She thought as she skimmed forward, accepting the new ability without much complaint.
Put in the "sex dungeon" as Vinaya so plainly put it, the woman found no need to question what her eyes were seeing. 'Look, this might be weird, but when ghosts casually give you nightmares so bad they can kill, I'll gladly take the new form and powers over that.' She reasoned with herself as she went towards the castle. Stopping at the edge of the bank, where land ended and water began.
"Hmm..." They questioned, reaching a foot forward as if testing the pool water to see if it's cold. "There's usually some bullshit limitations like 'you can't float over water' or some bullshit in these scenarios.'
Luckily enough, the purple haired woman's foot didn't sink into the water, prompting her to fully step over the water, confirming that she does indeed float over it. And while floating, she'd decided to look down. Checking herself out by using the surprisingly still water's surface as a mirror due to curiosity.
'DAMN! These are massive!' Was the first thought to run through the exorcist's head upon bearing witness to their own chest. The first thing to genuinely surprise the woman since she'd arrived within this dimension, was her chest size apparently. Breaking her whole "don't question it" mentality as she started questioning what was happening.
'What the hell, Vinaya?! By Lady Purple Heart I've got the body of a milf! Is everyone in here stacked as all hell or some shit?' Asking a pretty good question all things considered, the Urahara paused her self ogling for a second. Asking yet another good question.
'Why am I wearing a leotard like the Goddesses do..? Did that Lioness make me wear it? Or is it just the dress code? Not to mention are these detached Miko sleeves? And am I blindfolded? I mean, it explains why I can't see and am forced to use Equilibrium to even perceive the world at the moment. Actually, this is even better than that... Know what? I'll figure it out later, right now I need to continue moving before-'
In an attempt to change the scene before something unpleasant took place, Gynesis snapped herself out of her haze and started moving. Too bad she wasn't fast enough to get away from the combat encounter brewing from just below the surface.
"That pun was dogshit." Voiced the confused and now annoyed young lady, staring with a deadpan.
As if on cue, a pair of adult male skeletons rose above the water, rising to their feet as if awakened from their slumber. The moss covering their bodies signifying the lengthy period of time these creatures had spent under the water. With sediment slipping off of them like dust off an old painting.
"Are those two the welcoming committee?" She asked, remembering the hologram saying something about there being no negotiations with the residents of this dimension.
Bones rattling with every minute movement, the calcium coated cretins loosely held a rusted and rotting sword in their right hand each, already brandishing them in aggravation. Yeah, these things are not friendly in the slightest.
"Ah shit." Gynesis Almost shrugged as the duo appeared, looking around the immediate area for some kind of weapon. Her body moving on instinct.
Coming up empty handed, the woman decided her fists were good enough. 'They're skeletons, they can't be that bad.' She thought to herself as she made a dash for the two.
The skellingtons responded in kind, rushing toward her like a pair of hungry zombies, complete with their skulls contorting to form angry expressions as they charged forward. With one of them managing to get within melee range before his brother.
"Come and get me!" Yelled the woman, already winding up a kick, her foot pulled back and trained right for his bony shin.
*CRUNCH!*
With a satisfying crunch, the attack lands, turning the thing's tibia into splinters and snapping the fibula in two. Much to the skeleton's annoyance more than anything considering it went for an attack of its own as if it didn't just lose from the knee down. Swinging that rusted longsword down at his enemy's neck. 'That's gonna leave a mark...'
A swing and a miss! No thanks to his inaccuracy, but rather Gynesis weaving the attack with a step back and following it up with a disgusting punish with another kick. This time right in the jaw, launching the the mandible right off the hinge. And the guy fell face first into the muddy water, dead as hell.
"Perish, mewer!" She commanded with that kick, holding the end lag of the attack and standing on one leg for no reason whatsoever.
And like that, the first skeleton was felled.
The second really didn't do much better. This one chose to try stabbing the exorcist, only to get his sword caught by a high heel right at the hilt.
"Where were you aiming that thing?" She asked with a cocky grin before twisting her foot and snapping the entire blade off. "Do you have any idea how expensive Tetanus shots are these days?"
*TINK!*
"They're free, but the point still stands..." The purple haired woman mumbled under her breath.
The sword's blade snapped off like a cold rubber band as she spoke, making a ting sound upon the lethal section being divorced from the hilt. The blade barely being reflective enough to show the woman's face and the castle behind her in its reflecting as it flew into the air and crashed into the water.
'Damn, didn't think that would actually work. The again that sword looks more useful as a toothpick than a melee weapon.' The exorcist mused before dispatching the adversary with a devastating kick to the sternum, shattering the skeleton's ribcage and rendering it immobile.
*SNAP*
And like that, the skeletons were no mo- nevermind another four just popped up. Each new enemy holding a different melee weapon, and every one of those weapons had seen better days.
"Oh, so it's like that, huh?" Gynesis asked nobody, cracking a grin before back-dashing.
As she jumped backwards, she casted a spell, waving her hand at the four before the very water they had risen from came up and swallowed them whole. 'Nice try, Vinaya, but you ain't distracting me that easily!' She thought to herself as she retreated towards Filler Castle. 'Try as you might, but it'll take more than ever respawning skeletons to get me!'
If she was being honest to herself, the exorcist was gunning for gold in mental gymnastics with that one. 'I wanna see you get put in a situation where a some jack off ghost tried making YOU fight infinite hobgoblins and get back to me.'
After all, she did kill two just to get four right after. Which is kinda weird how it doubled. Surely one can't blame her for a bit of paranoia, right?
Anyway, Gynesis kept up her tactical retreat, outspeeding the 4 skeletons by large margins, choosing to attempt speedrunning the adventure than wasting her time fighting a potentially infinite skeleton army on day one.
Unfortunately, she forgot to look where she was going while dashing away, for some fucking reason. Resulting in her not even realizing when she was spotted by a massive 5 headed beast in the surprisingly wide waters. No seriously, these waters went on for more than a kilometer and Gynesis was barely halfway across the damned thing.
Either way, the exorcist ended up running headlong into a Hydra. Yes, the legendary aquatic lizard from Greek mythology. She'd quite literally slam head first into the thing's stomach, bouncing off and landing a sick backflip to avoid losing aura. Something it didn't like one bit.
"Ah! damn it what the..." The feeling of slamming into those cold scales was not pleasant in the slightest for the purple haired entity. If anything, it felt like if a normal human ran full speed into a brick wall.
How'd it get here? Hard to tell. 'What wasn't was the fact that it involved Vinaya.' The scaly beast roared at the unarmed exorcist, using only one head to do it for some reason. As for the other four, they were basically just hanging around until the roar was over, then they suddenly remembered that there was indeed something they didn't like standing before them.
Not wanting to waste time, Gynesis already started making moves, dashing in zigzags at the legendary creature. 'I've fought worse... I think?' Thought the lady midway through running up on her newest opponent. Was there a plan? Kinda... 'My plan is to smack it till it dies.' She answered, jumping up to the lowest head and roundhouse kicking the thing.
*SMACK!*
The attack landed, sending the head reeling back. It would shake it off before narrowing its slitted eyes right at her, the attacked head specifically looking extra pissed.
In retaliation, the monster had that specific head spit out a spew of evil venom at its attacker.
