TimeWeaver

*While Toki is still sitting, a phantom of Reimu appears, holding her remaining spell cards*

It's over. Divine Arts: Omnidirectional Demon-Binding Circle!! *using four spell cards, a stronger barrier surrounds Toki's body.* And finally, Fantasy Nature!! *7 orbs appear, all shining bright. They form a circle, as phantom Reimu returns to Toki, who finished her attack*

It's done. Hokuto Ujou Haganken!! *Fires a laser into the circle of orbs, which stays suspended in the air as Toki gets up, her other hand holding a laser as well* Fantasy Nature: Ultima Beam!!

*Firing her last attack, the two attacks become a large beam of concentrated energy, clashing with Lily's attack.*

*Toki was still meditating, talking to Reimu*

Reimu, I'll need you to use the rest of your spell cards. And your strongest ones too.

Combing the moves are we? It might work.

Let's finish this Lily.

*Time put his hands behind his head.* Yea that's fine. Considering the chaotic conditions, it would be best if we got to a safe distance rather than trade blows. We should bring Maribel along too.

Meanwhile with Reimu and Lily

*Toki looked around at the current battlefield.*

Quite the battlefield, my adversary. *points upward*

This battle will be decided by our next moves. I suggest you use your best move. *Toki sits down, preparing her strongest move*

*cracks his neck* So Yuuka, how are we going to handle this? Are you even looking for a fight anymore?

*Reimu brushes her cheek.* Oddly enough, I have to agree. However, I think I'll summon a spirit as well. *Reimu meditates for a moment, and opens her eyes. Possessed by Toki, she becomes Toki Hakurei. Her clothes change as well as her hair.*

So it is you. Very well, I shall not hold back. *with a fast kick, Toki sends Lily flying into a border. From there, Toki unleashes a barrage of attacks. Her final strike caused Lily to break through the border.* Is that all? Surely this isn't over?

*Time was watching the fight with Yuuka and Sasuke* There's something odd about Yuuka's movements

*Reimu stands up, looking at her healed injuries.* Thanks, Lily.

*stretches* Oh yea, remember when I said didn't prefer close combat? *appears underneath Lily* Sliding Ascension Kick!! *doing a backflip, she kicks Lily into the air* I'm not done yet! *teleports above Lily* Dimmensional Rift! *Kicks Lily back to the ground.*

Remaining Spell Cards: 9

*Reimu feels herself getting sucking in, trying to resist Lily's attack*

I might as well try something before I'm demolished. *stops resisting and allows herself to be pulled in, getting injured by miscellaneous items caught in the vacuum. Reimu regains control of her movement again for an instant, inches away from Lily's hand.*

I'll admit, I'm not any any condition to try this. *looks at herself, cuts and bruises all over her body.* However, I think it's clear you have impressed me. So, take this, Lily. *Uses 9 cards* Divine Arts: Omnidirectional Demon-Binding Circle!! *going further into the air, a barrier surrounds Reimu which is still sucked into the vacuum. Within the expanding barrier, Reimu activates another spell when she gets within range of Lily again* Divine Spirit: Fantasy Seal!! *a large amount of homing orbs appear around Reimu and Lily* Spell Combo: Divine Fantasy: Omnidirectional Hellzone!!

*Seconds before the explosion* Normally, I would be momentarily invincible with the binding circle....but in my current condition we both are going to take some damage. *smiles* You sure have gotten stronger, Li- *the orbs hit them, causing a giant explosion near the shrine*

Spell Cards left: 9

Gensokyo: Hakurei Shrine

"You're right. I don't know where you are..."

"But the wind does know!!"

With her powers, Lilly created a big whirlwind around herself. The boulders that were on the ground were drawn into it.

Then the wind should tell you, I'm right behind you, sitting on this casket of yours. Binding Border!! *Leaping into the air, Reimu casts a barrier that restricts Lily's movements*

*while falling towards Lily, Reimu holds two cards before placing her hand on Lily's head* Thanks for that whirlwind. Now, get sent to the ground. Spell Card: Treasure Sign: Yin-Yang orb! *From Reimu's hand appears a circular field, engulfing Lily. Reimu sends it hulking towards the earth, causing a dust cloud*

Did I get her? *Reimu touches her left arm, bloodied by one of Lily's arrows*

*Reimu looks up*

I figured you would try that Lily. * Lets the arrows hit her* So I planned for an aerial attack. Instant Dimensional Rift. *the double fades and a barrage of amulets shoot towards Lily*

Where am I now Lily? Heh heh

*Time easily dodges Yuuka's attacks*

Sasuke, tag me in when you're ready. I'll let you loosen up a bit

Gensokyo: Hakurei Shrine

 

BGM: 

 

"Time passed and I've gotten stronger. Somehow, on our first fights, your barriers were a problem to me."

"But now, things are different! I'll show the power that I grew in my heart!!"

 

Using her power, Lilly erected many big boulders from the ground and started to shoot them at Reimu. After that, her casket opened. She got inside and then, it closed. The ground started to swallow the casket, until it was completely gone.

Clever. Youkai Buster!!! *shoots rapid fire amulets that eventually destroy the rocks. Lily is nowhere to be found* Behind, in front or below? Permanent border!!! *creates a border at her feet* if that doesn't work, then I might have to use a spell.

Gensokyo: Hakurei Shrine

 

"Lilly...?"

 

Lilly stops her fighting and turns her attention to Maribel.

 

"... Go with Hikari. Somehow I have a little more of trust in her than the other one standing next to you."

 

She gave Meimu a cold scare and resumed her fight. Maribel nodded to Hikari, as an affirmation that she was willing to know why she wasn't supposed to be at Gensokyo.

*Reimu sees Lily unharmed by her last attack*

Heh, I can tell this will be an enjoyable battle...something I haven't experienced in a while. Show me what else you can do, Lily. If we indeed go far back, show me how much you have improved. *Reimu summons her Yin-Yang orbs.*

Hakurei Shrine

 

Sasuke Uchiha had stayed at the Hakurei Shrine. The question was, what was he to do next?

 

"The potential for a time paradox, the battle with Reimu against Lily and Yuuka, Hikari's agenda, and the arrival of these robots and Timeweaver... a lot's happening. Just like back then..."

 

"So, Reimu, should I get involved, or is this your fight only?"

*Time walks next to Sasuke.* I think she's got her fight with Lily covered, but we might need to preoccupy Yuuka. Why don't you take a crack at it?

Not so fast. *a portal made of dark energy appears, with TimeWeaver stepping out of it.* Huh, I finally got it. *sees familiar faces*

Oh hey Raina and Sasuke. Pretty cool right? One of my new powers. *brings his attention back to Maribel and Meimu* From the looks of it, you want a battle. I can provide with the challenge you seek. If you do want to fight me, I hope you're as strong as Assiette.

"Alright then. Let's move!!"

 

Lilly dashed at Reimu and swinged her casket at her. Knowing how Reimu is a good fighter, Lilly would let go of her weapon and set out to close-combat.

Hmm, close combat? Try me then. *Blocks Lily's attack with a Multi-layered barrier, with an explosive seal on the first layer about to detonate* I'm aware that close combat isn't my preferred choice of battle, but I have backup plans. *smiles as an explosion goes off* You told me not to hold back....

"So how's it going to be? A 2v2?"

"Are you planning to fight as well?!"

"Yes. I can't let myself get rusty..."

2v2 it is then. Alright Lily, let's do this old friend

"I don't think it's ironic. I think she's actually learning."

Leaning to be human? Hmm...Regardless, Maribel isn't going anywhere. Unless, you'd like to prove me wrong Meimu.

For a creation that's part youkai, you're acting quite human Meimu. Ironic isn't it?

"Just beat her and make her your friend through violence. That's how your current track record has worked anyway. With that said, I'll be taking Maribel now and escorting her back to the outside world."

You aren't taking her anywhere. I think she should stay for the moment.

*Turns to Lily* so do you have a personal vendetta with me? Perhaps we should settle this

*Hikari notices Lily and Maribel approaching*

 

 

"Good to see Maribel is in safe hands... but, it can't possibly be that time to fight now, can it?

Well, the way Lily is staring at me, I suppose it might be personal.....but I don't know why

*sees Lily and Maribel walking towards them*

Nice to see you two. I thought she had taken you away, but I guess you and Lily got familiar with each other.

*Looks at Lily*

Have we met at any point before Maribel showed up? You seem familiar, but I can't quite put my finger on it.

"Stay out of this, Hakurei.....and if you must know, Yukari created me."

Sorry, but I can't. I've known Yukari for a while so for better or worse, I think I'm entitled to have my say in the matter. *sighs* As for Maribel, Raina was watching her. I thought she was still with her.

"As for you, that claim that you're Yukari's cousin has put her in a foul mood. She's even asked me to personally deal with you once Maribel is safely back in the outside world."

I'll have to agree with Hikari. Let's not do anything too hasty...wait. How are you connected to Yukari, Meimu?

We did keep her busy. However we were attacked by someone who wanted to take her from us and now we're going to battle her soon.

*pouts*

Also, I left the tracking seal at the shrine to let me know when you returned. Anyway, we have some new people here as well.

*Cirian finally catches up*

 

"What did I miss? And don't ask about the company I brought with me."

Well nothing much. Me and Hikari are about to fight someone named Lily Toadstool, Sasuke just showed up here, and Meimu must have returned since I left a tracking seal there. That's about it for now
