TimeWeaver

 

"So, just how strong is she?"

I have no clue, but she broke through a half assed barrier cage with the swing of a coffin. That takes some amount of skill, and I'm not holding back this time.

"I am Lacus, Shadow of the fifth star, and today I am your liberator.

I too want whatever secret powers you hide inside. .. Luckily for you i'm not so ill mannered as to not let you have a chance to fight back."

She gets up and opens the closet.

"next time we meet, I will consume you. Please try to live that long."

She enters the closet closing the door behind her. Lightflare can feel her spiritual energies fade away as if she has left.

Or, she might go consume him.....I guess, but he seems like a specimen worth keeping alive in my opinion. One of you should stay by his side and monitor him. *A shadow returns to her, an unintelligible grunt is heard from the other, becoming a part of LightFlare's shadow*

Now in the meantime, where did Lacus run off to?

*Regin stands on a rooftop not too far from the hotel LightFlare is in*

*chuckles* Quite the addition you're trying to make. *shields her eyes from the sunlight* all right shadows, broadcast their conversation to me.

*the two shadows nod as they make their way towards the designated location: LightFlare's room. Getting through the a/c unit, one shadow is near the front door, the other under the bed, as a connection is made. Regin hears the word tourist.*

There goes her favorite word.

"So what's the situation?"

Well, Hikari and I have a battle with a particular person named Lily tomorrow. Uhh, we have someone who might eventually become Yukari.. I think that's it.

"Raina called me as backup in case things got chaotic.

 

They did, didn't they."

Well, not too bad, but it's near that point

Sasuke jumps up near Reimu before summoning a large bird.

 

 

"You must be the one Raina mentioned."

And you must be Raina's destructive friend, Sasuke. Reminds me of Marisa. *sighs, shaking her head* Good and bad times. So what brings you here?

*Back with Reimu*

Was that the sound of another gap opening? No, I need to focus on tomorrow's match. Hey Hikari, are there any special abilities you have that I might be able to enhance on the fly? For example, I can use my borders to teleport attacks and increase it's speed.

*TimeWeaver is seen fending off Assiette and Omega Zero, blindfolded, with his scythe. While all three are tired, only Time barely has any scratches compared to his two opponents.

Well done. You've made tremendous progress ever since you got your powers.

You never did tell us exactly what they were.

*Time laughs*

That's my secret for now

*sees Lily fly off*

Guess we should tell Raina about tomorrow's event.

*Hikari follows the sound of Reimu's voice, giving her a friendly smile*

 

"Thanks Reimu..."

No problem. Friends should help out friends, right?

Actions do speak louder than words, so if she wants to test our strength, I say why not. Besides, it'll be a good test to see how much I've improved. Also, a heads up for you Lily: don't expect the half-assed barrier you broke through when we battle. Speaking of which, is it a 2v1?

Need help?

*smirking, Reimu appears above Hikari and Lily, standing on a barrier* Border combo: Prison! *a border appears in front of Lily, which extends into a cube like structure, trapping her inside.* Hikari's right. It wouldn't make our current situation any better, since Maribel is a potential key to some of our questions.

Well Maribel, I have to admit this event has gotten me out of the shrine and is becoming quite the little adventure.

"A few of his fights have been pretty bad, yes. I, uh, don't wanna know what'd happen if he met Marisa Kirisame."

You and me both, Sis. By the way, do you mind if I occasionally call you "Sis"?

"Well..."

He's that bad huh? Is he as destructive as Marisa?

The American Miko turns toward Hikari.

 

"It's been a very complicated day. I thought it'd just be meeting Reimu, but... well, to keep things short, I met Maribel, your cousin, and another doppelganger."

 

Raina's cell phone rings.

 

"Hold on," Raina says, before picking up the phone.

 

"Aw geez, Sasuke, I was just going to Gensokyo for some important matters," Raina states.

 

"Gensokyo's one of those places that has severe incidents every so often," Sasuke replies.

 

"Whaddaya mean possible severe incidents, I'm not involved in those."

 

"I don't believe you."

 

"Honest."

 

"I'm still coming to that fight club you were at."

 

"Jeez, really?"

 

"I am qualified, you know."

 

"Alright, alright. Just don't pick a fight with anyone who thinks themselves a god."

 

"... it was one time, Raina."

 

The call ends. Raina puts her phone away.

A friend of yours? I hope they don't get into as much trouble as mine do

Hikari, are you somehow related to Yukari? Aside from the names being damn near the same, what got to me was the golden hair. But worry not, I don't have any reason to suspect you. I mean after all, there's only one youkai I know that actively visits my shrine, a place where you can "free food".

Hello Maribel. I'm sure you're pretty confused about what's going on. I'd love to give you an explanation, but I don't know if it might cause something to go wrong. However, I would like to ask about this dream you had.

"I have no idea who both of you are either, so don't be too scared."

*rolls her eyes* yea I'll try not to be too scared. Not sure if I can handle it tho.

*Cirian then starts walking towards Raina*

".....Hello."

*Reimu nudges Raina in the arm* do you know her?

I have no clue what the hell Yukari did, but she must have messed up real bad. I hope there's a way to fix this without any...difficult choices. If I see Yukari again....let's not talk about that.

Of course Yukari is found when I mention her name. *pinches Yukari's cheek* You have a lot of explaining to do about your lookalike standing outside this gap. Geez, at least the people who look like me aren't causing the world's demise by us being here.

"Hakurei, that girl becoming Yukari one day means the two must never meet. I'm not willing to discover which of the many time theories happens to be the right one and quite frankly I've grown to enjoy being able to exist."

Hmm that is true. However, where will she go, since Yukari likes to drop in at random times? Also, I'm surprised one of them hasn't been erased from existence. I'm not very knowledgable on the subject, but I've heard that in some cases two things can't exist in the same dimension. If that's even true.

*sighs* I'm getting a headache from this. But perhaps this is the reason we haven't found Yukari yet, with the arrival of our guest. Speaking of which, we don't know her name

I don't really have anything to say about that right now, but I'll definitely have an answer when we get to that point. For now, she might be able to help us.

*turns to see the person calling her* I'd ask how you got here, but I've seen weirder things. Is there something I can do for you? However, we were about to head out to take care of something.

*looks at Raina and Meimu*

Should we bring her along?

"Tempting, but I'm rather in a hurry. Actually, you should look for Yukari as well, this might end up becoming an incident you'll get involved in anyway."

Well then, I guess I'll have to have a nice chat with Yukari about that after she explains how she's going to repay me for all the food she's eaten.*cracks her knuckles*

Where should we start our search?
