Reimu Quest - A Paradise At Heart

[Sonae]

>Approach with caution. Don't show hostility, but be ready for anything should they attack.
>Examine Aya and Momiji

[Nekomata-chan]

>Approach with caution. Don't show hostility, but be ready for anything should they attack.
>Examine Aya and Momiji

>You approach them cautiously, but Aya walks over rather casually with a friendly smile. Momiji follows, looking rather perky.
"Hiya, Reimu! What brings you here?" Aya asks, more hyper and ecstatic than usual. Momiji walks to Aya's side. The pair of them look... too happy... and Aya's clothes are torn, like she's fresh from a fight.

>"Woah, what happened to you? You look like you've been through the wringer..."

[Raikaria]

> Consider the probobility that Hatate is responsiable for the tearing of clothing

[Darkoda]

>And you look more hyper than usual."

[Nekomata-chan]

>"Woah, what happened to you? You look like you've been through the wringer..."

> Consider the probobility that Hatate is responsiable for the tearing of clothing

>Aya laughs, almost manically, "Funny you should ask!! Just been in a fight with Hatate. Sent her plummeting unconscious onto the rocks at the foot of the mountain! Bitch put up a fight, but I think she's out of the way now! Ha-ha-haaaa~!!!"

>And you look more hyper than usual."

>"Just happy because I finally eliminated my arch rival, for good!!" Aya's voice echoes. Momiji nearly chokes on her own breath.
"You killed her?!" Momiji screeches, quietly. Aya shrugs.
"Not sure. Probably." Aya says a little too casually.

[Darkoda]

>"Don't you think that killing someone over a newspaper is a bit extreme?"

[Nekomata-chan]

>"Don't you think that killing someone over a newspaper is a bit extreme?"

>"Tch, I knew you'd kill Sanae, given the chance." Aya retorts, with a jokey grin.
>Momiji facepalms hard, "Aya..."
>Aya shrugs, "I kid, I kid, but this is more than just about the newspaper, Reimu! This is about the pride of being the superior tengu!!"
>Momiji shakes her head, "Aya, don't kill me, but I think you should check on whether Hatate is alive or not. A true proud person can overcome their enemies without mindless slaughter!"

[Darkoda]

>Momiji is right; all killing Hatate shows is that you're more heartless and cruel, and I don't think that's something to be proud of.

[Sonae]

>Aya's finally lost it! MUSOU TENSEI!
>"Momiji, you seem to be in a good mood, did something good happen?"
>Watch out for Aya. If she's lost her sanity, she could try to kill us for any reason, or none at all.

[Nekomata-chan]

>Momiji is right; all killing Hatate shows is that you're more heartless and cruel, and I don't think that's something to be proud of.

>Aya groans, "I told you she might NOT be dead!! Get your head in the damn game!!"

>Aya's finally lost it!
>"Momiji, you seem to be in a good mood, did something good happen?"
>Watch out for Aya. If she's lost her sanity, she could try to kill us for any reason, or none at all.

>Momiji blinks, "Hm?" she then leans forward, whispering, "All this fighting has sent Aya insane! I'm serious, just stay calm and happy. She's not in hyper-tengu-voyeur mode anymore, Reimu, she's in murder mode! I'm faking staying happy to not set her off again!"
>Aya giggles, before pulling out a wad of photographs and handing them to you, "Was going to wait until I published them, but I got some photographs of Hatate!!"
>The first photograph is from Aya's point of view, slamming her shoe into Hatate's face. The latter looks unconscious, and is on the floor. It's a monochrome photograph, but what you can tell is Hatate is bleeding profusely.

[Darkoda]

>"Those are some interesting photos indeed."
>Consider odds for knocking Aya out and dragging her to Eirin for a psych test.

>"Just where did you leave Hatate again?"
>First sign of Aya flipping out and attacking, Fantasy Seal to face.

[Nekomata-chan]

>"Those are some interesting photos indeed."
>Consider odds for knocking Aya out and dragging her to Eirin for a psych test.

>Aya jumps frantically, excited, "Aren't they?! Look through them!! DO IT!!!"
>She's probably beyond medical help at this stage!

>"Just where did you leave Hatate again?"
>First sign of Aya flipping out and attacking, Fantasy Seal to face.

>Aya grins, "Right on the rocks!! I'll show you!!"
>She grabs not just your hand, but your whole arm, "LET'S GO!!"
>You are dragged to a cliff on Youkai Mountain.
>When you arrive at a lower ledge and can actually breathe again, Aya points down at Hatate's body.
>From what you can tell, Hatate is not dead. Just... close. Her hair is clotted with blood, her clothes are torn beyond recognition and virtually every bone in her body looks broken. She stirs, opening her eyes.
>"STAY DOWN, BITCH!!" Aya screams, fly-kicking Hatate and knocking her back into half-dead-ness. "Didn't I tell you it's awesome?! You agree, don't'cha, Reimu?"

[Darkoda]

>Hatate needs medical attention NOW
>"Wouldn't your victory be even better if you took her to Eirin and had her patched up? Not only would she live to remember your victory, but she'd be in your debt for saving her."

>Let's get Hatate to Eirin, then we can take down Aya and drop her off as well while we try to figure out why she jumped off the deep end.
>If she attacks us or Hatate, blast her and we'll get Momiji to help us drag both of them to Eientei.

>"Wouldn't your victory be even better if you took her to Eirin and had her patched up? Not only would she live to remember your victory, but she'd be in your debt for saving her."

>Aya stops, and sends you a shocked glance.
"That's BRILLIANT!!" she yells.

>Let's get Hatate to Eirin, then we can take down Aya and drop her off as well while we try to figure out why she jumped off the deep end.
>If she attacks us or Hatate, blast her and we'll get Momiji to help us drag both of them to Eientei.

>Aya jumps down and grabs Hatate, throwing her over her shoulder with enough confidence to rival Marisa.
>Momiji joining you with a puzzled look, you all fly to Eientei.
>"Trust you to come up with an epic idea like that, Reimu! You're so smart!!" Aya coos madly.

>Abilities

>ABILITIES:
-Manipulation Of Auras
-Shrine Maiden powers (summoning gods, etc.)
-Flight
-The ability to make armpits seem sexy.

[Sonae]

>Wonder if Age is finally getting to Aya.
>Arrive at Eientei?

[Nekomata-chan]

>Wonder if Age is finally getting to Aya.
>Arrive at Eientei?

>You've heard of tengu cracking like that before... usually it's repressed anger.
>You arrive at Eientei, where Reisen is outside and staring at Hatate's limp body in slight panic.

[Darkoda]

>Manipulation of auras? Elaborate

>"Hello Reisen, we'd like to get Hatate patched up."
>Preferably while she was still alive.
>We're behind Aya where she can't see us right? Mime injecting a needle into Aya for Reisen to see.
>"Aya, you should let Eirin give you a full check-up as well; the victor should be in perfect health for when Hatate awakes."
>Hope that Reisen picks up the hint so we don't need to deal with things the normal way.

>While we're at it, are we strong enough to knock out Aya if we hit her from behind?

[Raikaria]

> Wonder if there's any way to get Satori or Koishi close enough to Aya to mind-rape fix her head.

> Maybe ask Momiji what the Tengu society would do to Aya about this? The Tengu seem to be structured and have their own laws and everything. I mean, Aya tried to stop you in the Faith incident because the Lord Tenma basically said she had to.

[Nekomata-chan]

>Manipulation of auras? Elaborate

>You aren't too sure of it yourself. It has something to do with the extreme power of your paper amulets, as you can manipulate them to actually hurt.

>"Hello Reisen, we'd like to get Hatate patched up."
>Preferably while she was still alive.
>We're behind Aya where she can't see us right? Mime injecting a needle into Aya for Reisen to see.

>Reisen nods, with an understanding look. "Of course."
>She looks at Aya in a confused manner. It seems she picks up on Aya's insanity.

>"Aya, you should let Eirin give you a full check-up as well; the victor should be in perfect health for when Hatate awakes."
>Hope that Reisen picks up the hint so we don't need to deal with things the normal way.

>Aya has a small madness tic, before looking over her shoulder at you, "Yeahah! You're so smaaaaaart, Reimu~!"

>While we're at it, are we strong enough to knock out Aya if we hit her from behind?

>You could probably knock her out, though not for long.

> Wonder if there's any way to get Satori or Koishi close enough to Aya to mind-rape fix her head.
>Maybe ask Momiji what the Tengu society would do to Aya about this? The Tengu seem to be structured and have their own laws and everything. I mean, Aya tried to stop you in the Faith incident because the Lord Tenma basically said she had to.

>You can't remember there being a law about insanity... though Aya would probably get a harsh lecture about nearly killing another tengu, maybe even more than just that. Maybe she can plead insanity?

[Sonae]

>Consider the possibility Aya is beyond repair.
>Wonder if Aya has a cash stash at her home.
>"Reisen, can you tell Eirin that Hatate needs medical attention pronto?"
>Keep an eye on Aya. If she starts to catch on, blast her.

[Raikaria]

> [Whisper] Be sure to tell Eirin to leave the bill with Aya, or failing that the Tengu, I'm just bringing the injured here.

[Nekomata-chan]

>Consider the possibility Aya is beyond repair.
>Wonder if Aya has a cash stash at her home.

>Aya was beyond repair way before this. This is just the icing on the cake, proverbially.

>"Reisen, can you tell Eirin that Hatate needs medical attention pronto?"
>Keep an eye on Aya. If she starts to catch on, blast her.

>Reisen nods, "At once."
>She gestures for you to follow her, shouting into Eientei, "Master Eirin! We have Hatate Himekaidou here in need of medical attention!!"
>Aya seems blissfully unaware. It seems the peak of her mental instability has passed, and she's more docile now. Still unstable, but docile.

> [Whisper] Be sure to tell Eirin to leave the bill with Aya, or failing that the Tengu, I'm just bringing the injured here.

>Reisen nods, "Of course."
>Aya heard, and grins, "Yeeeaah! I'll pay! That'll mean Hatate will be ever grateful and will have to do as I say!!"
>She then throws her arm around Momiji in a friendly way, "Right, Momi-Momi-Momi~ji?"
>Momiji looks at you, mouths HELP! and nods to Aya, "S-sure! W-whatever you say!!"

[Darkoda]

>Try to make sure that we're walking behind Aya
>Do we happen to know any gods of insanity?
>Find Eirin pronto. She's smart enough to pick up on these things and ko Aya.

[Nekomata-chan]

>Try to make sure that we're walking behind Aya
>Do we happen to know any gods of insanity?

>You keep behind Aya, which isn't difficult as she seems fixated on walking ahead of everyone.
>You don't know any gods of insanity. The only person you know that is possibly even CLOSE to that is Reisen... and she's anything but a god.

>Find Eirin pronto. She's smart enough to pick up on these things and ko Aya.

>You don't have to find her, as she pokes her head out from one of the many, many doors of Eientei, "What is it?"
>Reisen points to Hatate, at which Eirin sighs, looks to Aya, raises an eyebrow and gestures for you all to go into the room with her.

[Darkoda]

>While Aya isn't watching us, point at Aya and mime knocking someone out for Eirin to see

[Raikaria]

> Consider if since Reisen can cause insanity, she can reverse it.

[Sonae]

>Wonder what the best method of eradication is in case Aya loses the rest of her screws.
>Whisper to Momiji, "Did you see the fight?"

[Nekomata-chan]

>While Aya isn't watching us, point at Aya and mime knocking someone out for Eirin to see

>Eirin sees your mime, and nods understandingly.

> Consider if since Reisen can cause insanity, she can reverse it.

>That's a good idea. Manipulation of insanity is the reversal as well as the infliction of it.

>Wonder what the best method of eradication is in case Aya loses the rest of her screws.
>Whisper to Momiji, "Did you see the fight?"

>It's possible to think Aya doesn't have any screws left.
>Momiji nods, whispering, "I saw it all."

[Raikaria]

> Ask for information, especially who actually started it. For all we know Hatate is more loony than Aya.
