Youki winced. Even watching the scene through a vaguely aetherial viewpoint some distance above the action, Natsumi's handling of the Moon Princess had just been vicious.

"Somethin' bad happen up there?" asked Yuugi.

"Natsumi has now given up even the pretense of playing by the spell card rules."

"What's makin' ya say that?"

"I'm fairly sure they don't allow you to manually remove your opponent's stomach."

"Eeeh. Stomachs grow back, 'm pretty sure."

"I would have said "That's only for Oni" except that in this case you're actually right, her stomach will grow back."

"Oh? Is Suika up there?"

"No, it's the Moon Princess."

"Who?"

"Kaguya Houraisan? Lives around here? About...shoulder-height on me, I'd guess? Impractically long hair? Completely unkillable by any method?"

"Not ringin' any bells."

"She asked us to try and kill the Fujiwara girl back in the day. Who was, I might add, also completely unkillable by any method, as we found out the hard way."

"Ah, her! So who else is up there, stealin' our well-deserved fight from us?"

"Most of the heavyweights. Things being what they are, friendly fire might be more of an issue that I had anticipated."

"I get it. Folks of that power tier ain't given to being bossed around, with the result bein' there's barely half a plan between 'em."

"Currently the plan seems to be 'Keeping hitting Natsumi until she goes down' which, while commendably simple and easy to remember, does not seem to be working that well so far."

"Well, more fight fer us when the time comes, eh?"

If the sting in her arms contiuned existance meant anything, it was that these bullets were much more powerful than what they were suposse to be, the youkai of ambition seemed to have dropped the pretense of following the spell card rules all together. While getting hit from danmaku was in no way a painless affair (as anyone here could confirm), the accumulative damage from each hit would quickly drain them of their strangth to fight back. Or, as Kaguya had shown, destroy them completely. She knew that the princess would be okay, but she still felt the symapthetic pain. Eirin watched as, like Mokou before she, Kaguya used her brief moment as a patch of nothing to flank around Natsumi then regernate to blast her in the back with a laser.

And watched Natsumi retaliate by ramming her gauntleted hand through the moon princess's stomach, and threw here away like a rag doll. Eirin simply stood their in silent shock, and in a breif moment the curse of rationality and intellegence was gone and in it's place took hold a rage very unbecoming of the lunarian.

She threw her hands forward and a focused magic into them, ignoring any incoming danmaku and the fire that was begining to consume the dimension. Four continuous beams of light shot from a singular point, two shooting to each side of the ambitous youkai, the outside of the beams littered with waves of magical bullets. It looked similar to her spell card Omoikane's brain, but rather than the beams circling around the point of origan instead they began to collapse inward to crush Natsumi. The power coursing through the attack was far greater than Eirin had ever used, but the twisted grin on her face told all that she cared not, so long as she put the power hungry youkai through as much pain as possible.

The battlefield was no longer safe for Aya as fire became rampant, or for anyone who wasn't invicible or insane, and followed after Senae as she moved closer to the portal back to the real world. Youkai may have been inhumanly tough, but they suffered from asphyxia just as badly. Thankfully the lack of anything actually burnable prevented smoke from blocking her view of the battle too much, which now looked more like a battle from the old days, though no one has broken out the melee weapons (yet). It was tempting to bring the wind in through the portal to bring in more air, but even with her lack of technical knowledge she knew that would feed the fire and would cook everyone inside.

"So you have a plan, or should we just let them duke it out more?" She asked the meko while keeping a close eye on Natsumi in case she gapped away again.

Natsumi's shields took the brunt of the danmaku hitting her. However, though Natsumi didn't notice it, they were beginning to get strained... The yokai of ambition set about avoiding the most intense areas of the flame, spraying individual danmaku patterns as she did. The was quick, but her dodging was simple, non-complex.

Kaguya lay on top of Utsuho, doing little more then bleeding on her for a few moments before the hole in her stomach regenerated. Her kimono had a tear in both the stomach and the back, and the garment was soaked with blood. Kaguya rolled over with a groan. There was plenty of residual pain to deal with.

Marisa had rapidly backed up to avoid her former mentor's fire and Mokou's far more literal fire. She fired off some danmaku herself, but was more focused on not getting burned.

She's distracted... now is the perfect time to fire off anything... large. How many do I have left? Two? That will have to do, Mima pondered, wings flaring up, This white-haired bitch is going to learn just how stupid it is to mess with children.

Once more, the spirit's wings turned into a dark disc that eagerly swallowed the offered orbs of glass, quickly lighting to a blinding radiance that overwhelmed even the omnipresent flickering flames. Of course, the attack wasn't intended to be dangerous through blinding but instead through sheer overwhelming force. Who knew that ridiculously oversized lasers had their uses?

"Double Twilight Spark."

The lasers fired.

One immortal was vaporised by the edges of the blast, having strayed too close to Natsumi. Not that it particularly bothered her; Mokou reformed just outside of range and continued to turn the air before her into an incandescent mess of rolling flames.

"I think that we should just leave everyone else to it," Sanae said uncertainly, the common sense from her time before Gensokyo rearing its head, "They seem to have more than enough firepower to finish things... we'd just get in the way, right?"

Shujiko didn't immediately reply to Sanae. What she said made sense, after all. With so many of them fighting at once, it would be difficult not to get hurt by an ally.
"...But I didn't come here just to watch," The will youkai muttered. "I want to help. She needs to be stopped!"
Someone fired two huge laser beams at Natsumi while she spoke. "I know everyone else is stronger than me, but I refuse to be useless!"

Yuuka, meanwhile, checked her injured hand while others wailed on Natsumi. Her hand wouldn't be healing for a long while, even at full strength. Well, regeneration had never been one of her more impressive assets. Not that it mattered.

She briefly considered adding her Spark to Mima's attack, but that particular spell was getting stale right now. Nah, there had to be something both fresh and painful to endure. Like a good ol' whack to the head. Still plenty of obstacles though...

Aya nodded in agreement with Seane's common sense for once as she saw Mima pop off another high powered beam. It was certainly for the best to avoid getting in the way of these maniacs, further proof supporting that as she saw said high power beam vaporise Mokou in friendly fire. If threre was going to be such disregard for the safety of other then the reporter was happy to just a spectator for now. But she shared a similar feeling as Shujiko. She wanted to help stop this insane youkai and her plan, she wanted a piece of her just like everyone else. But the two didn't have to be seperate.

"You're not useless, Shuji" Aya encouraged the will youkai with a mischivious smile. A plan was forming in the crow tengu's head, the kind you'd expect from a clever creature like here "They might be more powerful, but that black wearing weasel is going to slip them up eventually, and we'll be ready to hit her when she does"

Eirin's attack did not stop as Nastumi be began dodging through the danmaku, instead they pivoted on the point of origin and followed after the youkai of ambition. While the spell card may not have the ummph of the Master Spark, it's ability to move ratehr than forcing the caster to stop and reaim had it much more uesful for trapping her target. Even so, the danmaku hitting the doctor was begining to build up, but her lapse into insanity was giving her the temporary toughness to tank through as she pumped more power into her attack, now white magical bullets shooting out in a swirl from her.

The mass laserfire and flames obscured Natsumi completely from view. It was hard to see what was going on... When a voice filled with pure unbridled rage rang out from the center.

"   Obliteration Sign "The Destruction of Reality"!   "

The wave of danmaku that fired from Natsumi's position was massive. It filled the entire room, patterns of red and black of all different sizes, all different shottypes. The wave was neigh-undodgable. This was added to by the fact that Natsumi had cheated. Loops formed around the limbs of each of her opponents, holding them all in place.

Marisa struggled, but to no avail as she was battered by danmaku. It hurt, immensely, and by the time the card ceased firing she was left panting, and weakened, held in the air by loops around her wrists and ankles.

Kaguya was in the same boat, unable to move. Etsuko had been rendered unconscious, and Kiriyoshi was barely clinging to consciousness.

"Grrr... you cheating bitch!" cried Marisa, raising her head.

Natsumi sighed. "I was getting impatient with all of you, besides, this was going to be the outcome anyway."

She laughed haughtily, flexing the bloodstained fingers of Kami no Te. "Now, shall we finish this so that I may complete the greatest of ambitions?"

In all her self-assuredness, Natsumi had not realized that the last set of attacks had weakened her magical shielding to a critical level...

Marisa hadn't let go of the mini-hakkero. It was still gripped in her hand, tightly. She could feel the warmth that radiated off of it, the internal magic.

... She wasn't going to give up.

She began charging magic in the mini-hakkero, more and more magical power radiating from it. If she could shatter the loop restraining her arm, she had one good shot left.

The magical aura the mini-hakkero gave out began countering the loop around her arm, and quickly shattered it.

"Hmm... I believe I'll start with you, spirit," Natsumi said, turning towards Mima. "You contain a wealth of power..."

She pointed Kami no Te towards Mima, with a nasty grin. Marisa raised her hand, aiming the mini-hakkero at the white-haired destroyer. Three spell cards floated out to take their place in front of the magical reactor. Marisa gritted her teeth.

"Love-Colored Annihilation..."

Natsumi turned, perplexed, having not noticed Marisa's actions up until now. "Eh?"

"ARUTEIMETTO SUPAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAKU!"

Natsumi's eyes widened as the truly massive laser fired. It slammed into the yokai of ambition, carrying her backwards with a roar that blotted out all other sounds. Natsumi slammed into the wall of the reality sphere and still the huge laser continued to fire. Her focus broken as such, the loops around the wrists of the various allied beings disintegrated. Kaguya drifted upwards, as Kiriyoshi caught Etsuko before she could fall.

Marisa finally deactivated the massive laser, and Natsumi dropped like a rock to the bottom of the reality sphere.

Panting, Marisa drifted downwards, mini-hakkero still trained on Natsumi.

The white-haired destroyer rose.

"Hah... even with an attack like that... you won't defeat me!" she declared, raising Kami no Te. "You haven't even pierced my-"

Natsumi's eyes widened, and an expression of sheer horror came to her face, her previous smugness shattered. Her magical shielding was gone.

"Your magical shielding?" Marisa asked, with a tired but triumphant grin. "Looks like it couldn't stay up to everything you thought it could. Hey, everyone!"

Marisa briefly turned back to everyone. "Let's end this with a bang! All your most powerful spell cards!"

Natsumi took a step back, but found her flight crippled temporarily.

Marisa looked back to her, and took careful aim with the mini-hakkero.

"Love-Colored Annihilation..."

Kaguya took a clue from Marisa.

"Divine Treasure..."

Utsuho covered behind lunarian fron freaking laser beams: she is immortal, she can take it. When Natsumi's shield was broken, Yasora was too busy verbally berating Kaguya, so Utsuho came up with her oun plan. She kicked Kaguya from behind, kicked her hard, sending her to fly at Natsumi, and...

"Abyss Nova."


"It's done."

Reimu dropped her ofuda on the ground. She has little strength left: just enough to get into a bed before passing out.

Well, that wasn't exactly to plan. When Natsumi called out the next spell card Aya was about to go back into into dodging when she felt her arms and legs bound to the spot in the air. Damn it, this is the third time in two daysshe thought but was quickly reminded of the red and black danmaku comming her way. She pulled at the bindings as strongly as she could but to no avail, forced into slamming into the danmaku. Pain burned through her as she tried to struggle out. Eirin was not doing much better, the loops around his arms had broken her focus and her mind slipped back into it's usual state, and with it the pain she had held back until now. The lunarian was on the edge of consiousness from overtaxing her body and ready to pass out.

This was the end, Aya thought, this was the end. Everyone was restrained by Natsumi's spell and now there was nothing stopping her. The tengu kept fighting it, not about to give up until there was nothing left, but from where she stood it seemed like there was no more hope. She watch Natsumi move closer to the evil spirit... and her sight was filled with Marisa's insane master spark. Had she not hated the world destorying youkai she would have felt sorry for her getting hit with the equivilant of a mag train at full speed. The loops around her arms released, setting her free.

At Marisa request, Aya pulled out the spell card she had been planning too use. Admittedly her spell card were made for speed and not power, and there was certianly not enough room in here for Peerless Wind God, but she wasn't going to bass up the approtunity. "Wind God -Storm Day-" She spoke the name of the spell as leaf and rain danmaku circled her in a beasutiful pattern before firing everything at her target.

Jolted into coherence by being set free, Eirin looked hazily around as she tried to figure something out. She thought she heard someone say something, but it wasn't getting through. She forced heself to fighting shape as she drew another card. "Esoterica. Astronomica...Entombing" she forced out, and she summoned several famililars that shout out to trap Natsumi to the the wall. Her part in the spell card done, Eirin reduced her power to just enough to not crash to the floor.

Surprised by the sheer amount of danmaku being fired, Shujiko was about to begin dodging when it turned out she couldn't move, having been shackled by some magic.
"Oh what the h-" Shujiko began, when the bullets began to slam into her. Defenceless, Shujiko was forced to endure, trying to outlast the assault. When Natsumi had finally ended, Shujiko was shaking from the effort of staying conscious. It seemed her normal threshold wasn't as high as most others, and her resolve was reaching her limit.

No... not yet... I won't go down... Not when she cheated... Shujiko told herself, trying to break free. Come on... just try harder...

At some point, a huge laser was fired at Natsumi, and the bindings came undone. At first, Shujiko collapsed to her knees, trying to stay awake.
Strongest spellcards? Shujiko heard the request. ...Yeah, can't go down without trying it out.

Staggering to her feet, Shujiko slowly ascended, taking out the spellcard. Her limbs were still shaking but she glared fiercely at her target, took a deep breathe, then...

"Dying Will ~ Arcobaleno Storm!"

Seven orbs, each corresponding to a colour of the rainbow, formed and began to circle Shujiko. One by one, the orbs would release a danmaku pattern before disappearing. Each one used a different pattern from before, but the more orbs that disappeared, the less obstructions there were to protect Shujiko from retaliation. Not that it seemed to be a problem...

Violet*

went first, then came indigo* , blue* following, green* , yellow* , orange* , and finally red* .

Yuuka was surprised when the binds were enough to prevent her from moving. She couldn't even break free! She hadn't noticed the amount of power Natsumi had gathered, but if it was enough to stop even herself...

She had endured the storm of danmaku, even forcing her to wince. That was new. And also unforgivable. Straining against the binds with her good hand, Yuuka tried to overpower the spell. Finally, she was freed, but by Marisa having Spark'd the hateful girl.

Well, time for a supreme beat down. "Guess I'll give this Spark Derivative business a try..." Yuuka muttered. He4r umbrella began to throb with power, glowing a pale pink.

Pointing the tip of her umbrella at Natsumi, Yuuka grinned sadistically. "Let's not hold back! I want to see her cry!"

Her umbrella was practically shaking now, as if ready to explode from the magic it contained.

"Supreme Master Spark!"

A bigger laser was fired, although not as flashy as something like a Double Twilight Spark. In fact, all she seemed to have done was make her Spark a little bigger. Oh well, it wasn't like there was a sun to take advantage of in here. 'Solar Spark' was totally her first choice.

Youki whistled softly. "That looks painful."

"Yeah, 'think I felt that from here. 's a Spark attack, like what Kazami uses, right?"

"Times about five or six. We've got something like three EX-tier or higher Spark users going all-out on Natsumi."

"Sheesh. Makes ya almost feel sorry for th' poor girl. 's almost like...bullyin' her, really."

"Seems that way. There isn't much that could survive that."

"Yep! Even I'd have trouble tankin' that much damage."

Youki and Yuugi looked at each other for a short while.

"The smoke's gonna clear an' she's gonna be perfectly fine, isn't she?"

"Probably. Switching to a different, more powerful form is also a possibility."

In a contest of magical shielding, Mima now had the most left of any single person present. After all, she'd only had to endure the brunt of one spell-card, not the most stupidly powerful variants of a Master Spark ever devised. Still, that left her with no highly powered attacks with which to punish the idiot youkai with; the evil spirit would have to go with something more symbolic and less person flattening.

"Experimental Interlude: Death of a Magician," Mima stated, producing the eternally bloodied knife from her sleeve and throwing it at the ambition youkai like some sort of lance. Sakuya was going to be annoyed that someone was stealing her trick; the weapon turned into a laser made of blades.

Mokou had much less of a problem when it came to picking a spell-card to use, going straight for the most explosive part of her arsenal, "Hourai 'Fujiyama Volcano!"

The explosions tended to be blinding.

"Great Miracle 'Yasaka's Divine Wind!'"

It was okay to risk hitting everyone else, right? Sanae wasn't sure that any of her spell-cards were particularly suitable for battles with allies... and people might be offended if she got a giant snake to consume the youkai.

"ARUTEIMETTO SUPAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAKU!"

"Hourai Jewel -Dreamlike Paradise-!"

The truly immense laser roared towards Natsumi, who, unable to fly, was struck by it and engulfed. Kaguya's danmaku battered Natsumi, and soon, every single spell card and struck the white-haired destroyer. The yokai of ambition was engulfed in a storm of magic. She was invisible, the sheer level of destructive power hurled at her completely obscuring her from view.

Needless to say, she had been hit.

When the spell cards finally ceased, the dark figure that was Natsumi was left standing, swaying in place. Slowly, awkwardly, she raised Kami no Te and weakly grasped at the air, falling to her knees. She took a step forward, stumbled, and then fell to her knees. Smoke was rising from her body, now.

Hairline cracks ran all across the Kami no Te. The gauntlet trembled, and Natsumi looked at it, in as much as she could barely move now. The artifact twitched, and then...

It shattered. Shards of the black and sharpened gauntlet were scattered apart, falling to the ground. Kami no Te was destroyed.

Back in the cavern underground, the fairies and yokai would begin to stir and awaken.

Natsumi toppled forward onto her stomach.

"Haha!" Marisa laughed. Smoke was rising from her, as well, and scorch marks marred her arm up to her elbow. The mini-hakkero looked as if it was glowing white-hot with magical power. Her sleeve had been shredded apart up to her shoulder by unleashing a second Ultimate Spark right after the first. "We... haaa... w-we got her."

Kaguya was in better shape, her eyes merely trained on Natsumi's body. "... Something's happening to her."

Indeed, Natsumi appeared to be growing... smaller? It was apparent that she was also completely missing a right arm up to her elbow... and the stump that was her elbow was bleeding.

Mima, clothing and hair returning to their normal shades rather than the uncanny darkness, had been in the process of retrieving her knife when Natsumi began to change. This gave her a very good view of the end result: one girl, not much older than seven or eight at the most, with a bleeding arm and in a black kimono far too large for her. The spirit, given her natural attitude towards children, through caution to the wind and gave the girl a hug whilst using her free hand to produce a normal knife and cut off some of the excess fabric for use as bandages.

The white-haired immortal wasn't too interested in whatever was happening to Natsumi, now that the gauntlet was broken, and instead sat by Kaguya and attempted to see how much clothing her most-definitely-not-a-proper-girlfriend had lost during the fighting. Unfairly, Mokou's clothing had escaped everything completely undamaged.

"I need a drink..." Sanae muttered, eyes still watering from the barrage of colour and noise. It was anyone's guess what was going on...

"Be careful! I cannot stop a reaction!"

It was finally over, it seemed. Shujiko wanted to remain vigilant, but her fatigue was catching up to her. Falling to the ground, the will youkai practically crumpled to the ground, wanting nothing more than to go to sleep for a month.
"...I feel so out of shape..." Shujiko mumbled faintly.


Yuuka approached the lolified Natsumi, no pity in her expression, surprisingly enough. Yuuka may love children, but she hated monsters. And unless Natsumi's actions could be explained in some incredibly ridiculous twist like Hanako controlling her, Yuuka wasn't about to shower her with sympathy. It certainly explained why she was glaring at Mima rather than joining the hug.
Instead, Yuuka turned to Utsuho, frowning. "You better not be planning on blowing up, that'll be annoying."

The shards of Kami no Te were bleeding as well. A foul, dark substance, staining the semi-existent ground they lay on. Anyone capable of sensing such things would sense that it was filled with a corruption, a grotesque and twisted presence.

Ad exhausted Marisa drifted down to the ground. "Mima-san, what the hell are you doing?"

Natsumi seemed drowsy, from both the excessive firepower that had hit her, and bloodloss through her arm. "... Mmmg... ehh?"

Kiriyoshi was still tending to an unconscious Etsuko, as Kaguya landed and mainly just looked perplexed.

Anyone who would be capable of sensing the corruption exuded from the shards of the Kami no Te would be able to note that Natsumi was empty of that corruption. Whereas her presence had felt dark before, that was completely and totally gone now. The ambition yokai had been twisted by the dark artifact, into something she was not. A monster.

Now, the small, weak girl in Mima's arms lacked even a strong magical presence, weaker in power then even the weakest fairy.

Carefully, Mima cut the girl's kimono short and tied it around the stump of her arm as an impromptu bandage. So weak, so utterly harmless... even more than the albino fairy, at this point. Somehow, the corrupted monster of minutes before had turned into this little girl in her arms. How... bizarre.

"What can you remember?" asked the spirit, standing up and looking around. This bubble wasn't going to last long with nothing to support it so... time to get out?

Mokou and Sanae had already had similar ideas, the former telling Kaguya to get out or have to resurrect from being crushed in an imploding reality and the latter wanting to head home and get some more sleep. After all, the incident was finished, right?

Shujiko remained where she was, finding the idea of falling into unconsciousness right there to be a very good idea with absolutely no repercussions whatsoever.

Meanwhile, Yuuka glanced over the destroyed gauntlet. It had dissolved, and emanated from it the dark energy that had gripped Natsumi.
"Well, that's a nice explanation and all," Yuuka muttered, "But now I feel I feel like a bitch. Oh well."

Yuuka crouched next to the harmless girl, looking at the stump with a frown. Apparently, that gauntlet had replaced her arm. Yuuka would very much like to know where she had obtained it, but that could wait until she was slightly less traumatised. For now, time to leave.

Kaguya fled after Mokou. She wanted to put on a different kimono, now, since this one was bloody, torn up, and various other uncomfortable things. Not after picking up Shujiko and awkwardly carrying her out, of course.

Marisa lifted off the ground a bit. Flight was pretty much all she could muster up the magical energy to do at the moment. "Mima-san, come on, this place is... I don't even know what the hell it's doing!"

The ceiling was warping bizarrely, as were the walls and floor. The phantasmagoria of colors and images reached a point where it almost seemed like it was a strobe light.

Natsumi twitched, weakly, in Mima's arms. "Remember...?"

The girl blinked.

"... I... I feel sick..."

Kiriyoshi, carrying Etsuko, waved frantically to Yuuka. It was a desperate bid to get her going so they could escape.

"That's alright, I imagine a lot of people would be feeling sick right about now," Mima said, looking at the edges of the bubble as it began to lose cohesion and sanity. Then, without warning, she accelerated to full speed and left. It was kind of nice, to have gotten through that battle without really being hurt...

Shujiko, in her state of waning consciousness, was vaguely aware of being carried away. Instead of being embarrassed, she simply snuggled closer, a content smile on her face.


No time to waste, unfortunately. Mima had the 'escape with Natsumi' plan covered, so Yuuka merely followed, reaching Kiriyoshi, Yuuka guided the two girls outside the rapidly collapsing space. She was careful not to make her injured too obvious. she didn't want Kiriyoshi to start feeling guilty at this stage.

"Chop chop, everyone! Last one to leave gets to stay inside!" Yuuka called out to the rest, perhaps or perhaps not motivating them to leave.

Good thing Utsuho tried her best to back out from her former allies who for some reason chose to ignore her warning. Still, she was horrified by the a possibility. She wasn't so cruel inside.

"What have I done... I'm gonna be grounded for sure."

"That's why I told you to listen to me. Hey, do you hear me?

Utsuho cried and rushed to the exit, and then back to the former hell. She was going to confess to lady Satori, appologie, and resive her punishment.

Utsuho can no longer accept commands. Even from Yasora. And if I didn't make it clear yet, Reimu can no longer accept commands too.

Aya panted heavily after her spell card was over, watching as the smoke drifted away from the point of impart of all the spell cards fired at Nasumi. The ambitious youkai stumbled out of the crater looking seriously hurt, and the powerful gauntlet on her shattered. The tengu shot her fist into the air and let out a victory cheer "Victory! The Tengu hero and friends win the day!" feeling triumphant after defeating their foe and saving the universe from destruction. But that wasn't the full story, as it seemed. After the gauntlet's destruction, she saw that natsumi no long at a arm where the gauntlet once was, and was now shrinking into the shape of a mere 8 year old. Aya was confused as to why this happened, but before she could question her Mima swooped in and started nursing her.

Seeing what's left of the Kami no Te bleed something foul made the reporter wonder just how evil Natsumi actually was and if the artifact was corrupted instead. It certianly made an interesting twist in her story. Though not everything about this reveal was good for the tengu "Now I feel bad about this" She said as she pulled out one of the photo she took with the second camera (a polaroid), anyone who looked at it saw that Aya had at some point gotten under the youkai of ambition and got a shot of bloomers with red ribbon. But the pocket dimension's collapse was something more worrysome and Aya made a quick flight out behind everyone else.

As Mokou moved towards the exit of the reality bubble she felt a weight on her back as Eirin wrapped her arms around the phoenix possessed girl to support herself. The doctor had used the strength she had left to move over to the white haired immortal and barely had enough to get out on eher own. Hearing Senae's need for a drink, Eirin could not agree more. She felt weak, yet satisifed, a cup (or two or many) of sake would do her wonderers.

Sometimes I even amaze myself. Currently: Nice and sneaky like
