Elly Quest - Reaper in Red

[Raikaria]

>She holding up alright?

> She appears to be. She repeats what she seems to say before, but you can't hear.

[Hanzo K.]

>"I can't hear you, is everything set or something?"

[Raikaria]

>"I can't hear you, is everything set or something?"

> Sakuya nods, and looks satisfied. You hear her voice from inside the orb, as she speaks into her watch:

> "If I hadn't set it up right you'd have been able to hear me before. Sound doesn't usually transcend space-time anywhere similar to light."

[GuyYouMetOnline]

>"I see. Um, pun not intended."

[Raikaria]

>"I see. Um, pun not intended."

> Sakuya doesn't look bothered, looks into the distance and vanishes.

> You can make out some fighting over the Misty Lake.

[GuyYouMetOnline]

>Zoom in and watch.

[Raikaria]

>Zoom in and watch.

> You zoom in to see the Ice fairy you beat up earlier being beaten up by Reimu. She doesn't last five seconds. However, it appears she got in the way of Reimu and who she's actually fighting, Yoshika and Kogasa. She seems a little confused about the two of them working together, you guess this is due to the fact that Kogasa wanted Reimu's help to get rid of Yoshika during the Desire Incident.

[Hanzo K.]

>Alright, so everything's going as planned.
>"Okay, the scheme's going as planned. Reimu's fighting Kogasa and Yoshika right now. And she's pretty puzzled about them working together too."
>Let's keep watching!

[Raikaria]

>Alright, so everything's going as planned.
>"Okay, the scheme's going as planned. Reimu's fighting Kogasa and Yoshika right now. And she's pretty puzzled about them working together too."
>Let's keep watching!

> Well, everything except the Ice Fairy. That was a bonus.

> It doesn't take very long for Reimu to defeat Kogasa and Yoshika, and they don't seem able to really wear her down.

> However *Tenshi* [Actually being Mamizou, as you can tell from the small tanuki tail], floats down, making Reimu more confused, but she seems to be happy as well, deciding that *Tenshi* is the cause, and not Remi.

> The two start fighting. Mamizou seems to be holding back, according to what she told you while you headed to the mansion, she usually fights using animal-shaped danmaku, but you see none. You guess she has to hold back or else her cover is blown.

[Hanzo K.]

>"Okay, everything's going as planned so far, Reimu's just made contact with the Fake Tenshi, Mamizou. She's holding back to not give away the ruse."
>Let's keep watching the fun!

[Raikaria]

>"Okay, everything's going as planned so far, Reimu's just made contact with the Fake Tenshi, Mamizou. She's holding back to not give away the ruse."
>Let's keep watching the fun!

> The tree youkai nods.

> It doesn't take long for the fake Tenshi to lose, and Reimu looks confused by how easy the fight was. At this point, the Tenshi begins unleashing animal danmaku, shocking Reimu and landing a few hits before she can react.

[Hanzo K.]

>Laugh a bit. "Ooh, now it's gettin' good! She thinks she's beaten the fake, and is all confused about how easy it was, then blammo! Surprise attack!"
>Beat.
>"We really should've gotten some of this for you too kid."
>This is gettin' good!

[Raikaria]

>Laugh a bit. "Ooh, now it's gettin' good! She thinks she's beaten the fake, and is all confused about how easy it was, then blammo! Surprise attack!"
>Beat.
>"We really should've gotten some of this for you too kid."
>This is gettin' good!

[Fun fact; I just played Mission 4 of Fantasy Maiden Wars.

The main enemy is Elly. Guess what she does.

Summons and flings Floor Tiles as her trump card <_<]

> "I think the biology of a plant youkai is different enough it would be dangerous for me." the tree youkai says.

> It seems to be. Reimu manages to defeat Mamizou, easily brushes aside Meiling, and goes inside the Scarlet Mansion.

> You don't see anything for a while. Until you see two figures fly through a hole in the roof. A very angry and confused looking Reimu, and Nue, who is morphing from Remilia into her usual form.

> Nue explained before that her Seed of Non-Identification makes people see what they think an object or thing looks like. Nue used one on herself and waited where Reimu would expect Remilia to be, so she saw Nue as Remilia.

> You see, much closer to the shrine, the real Tenshi, Reimilia, and Eirin gather.

[Hanzo K.]

(Inorite?)

>Grin. "Oooh...Remilia's not gonna like that, Reimu and Nue just busted a hole in her roof. But, Reimu's angry and confused, so she's gettin' more and more frazzled by the moment. And the real Tenshi and Remilia are on the way here, Eirin too."
>Laugh it up! "This is gettin' rich!"
>Let's keep watching!

[Raikaria]

(Inorite?)

>Grin. "Oooh...Remilia's not gonna like that, Reimu and Nue just busted a hole in her roof. But, Reimu's angry and confused, so she's gettin' more and more frazzled by the moment. And the real Tenshi and Remilia are on the way here, Eirin too."
>Laugh it up! "This is gettin' rich!"
>Let's keep watching!

> Nue starts to fire a rain of arrow-like danmaku from hr wings, and Mamizou flies up to support her friend, launching what seems like a tidal wave of dog-like danmaku, as does Kogasa, who starts to spin her umbrella and fire lasers.

> Reimu forms seven orbs of rainbow light around herself, which eradicate the danmaku fired at her, and explode on contact with the trio, who fall to the ground. There's no doubt that was a bomb.

[Hanzo K.]

>Sigh, and doff our hat. "Brave guys, they took a bomb to the face to further the plan. But it was a spellcard bomb, so they'll be back on their feet soon enough."
>Keep watchin'!

[Raikaria]

>Sigh, and doff our hat. "Brave guys, they took a bomb to the face to further the plan. But it was a spellcard bomb, so they'll be back on their feet soon enough."
>Keep watchin'!

> Reimu flies down to them, and seems to talk, before heading towards the shrine.

> You see Tenshi and Remilia move to intercept, they meet halfway across the forest. Reimu looks frustrated that both are going to fight her at once, before she has to dodge a swing from Tenshi's sword, and a lance of red energy thrown by Remilia.

> You guess Eirin is going to pretend to be the mastermind first, as she goes inside the shrine.

[Hanzo K.]

>"Ooh, now it's heatin' up! You can see the fightin' from even here now, can't you?"

[Raikaria]

>"Ooh, now it's heatin' up! You can see the fightin' from even here now, can't you?"

> "Yeah." the tree youkai says.

> Reimu dodges the two attacks, before Tenshi slams her sword into the ground, causing it to splinter, almost as if there was a mini-earthquake. Reimu is forced into the air, where Remilia fires massive amounts of scarlet danmaku. Tenshi then pulls out a keystone, and fires red alsers from it, making a ground/air attack.

> It looks like this couple are pressing Reimu.

[Hanzo K.]

>Grin, and put our hat back on. "Hoo-wee, she's gonna be pretty worn-out by the time she gets to the real culprit, eh?"
>How's Malus reacting to all this fun and chaos?

[Raikaria]

>Grin, and put our hat back on. "Hoo-wee, she's gonna be pretty worn-out by the time she gets to the real culprit, eh?"
>How's Malus reacting to all this fun and chaos?

> "That's the whole idea, right?" the tree youkai says.

> Your scythe seems excited.

> Reimu unleashes what seems to be a spellcard, which forces Tenshi and Remilia on the defensive, she forms several orbs around herself, and starts letting out massive amounts of amulets.

[Hanzo K.]

>Nod. "Yep, that's the whole point. Malus here's pretty excited, I bet he can't wait to get to our turn at bat!"
>Grin. "I know I'm havin' a hard time keepin' myself restrained."
>Looks like she's using one of her strongest cards, doesn't it? All the better, since it'll be depleted when we come into play.

[Raikaria]

>Nod. "Yep, that's the whole point. Malus here's pretty excited, I bet he can't wait to get to our turn at bat!"
>Grin. "I know I'm havin' a hard time keepin' myself restrained."
>Looks like she's using one of her strongest cards, doesn't it? All the better, since it'll be depleted when we come into play.

> "Yes, I can imagine why, seeing this is even getting my blood boiling... although, I don't have blood."

> You're not sure if this is one of her strongest cards or not, you just know it's a strong-looking card.

> The three fight for quite a while longer, until Tenshi looks annoyed, and slashes Remilia, causing a Scarlet Mist from her, and herself, as well as gathering some crimson mist from the sky, making a patch of normal sky, before the Sword of Hisou glows, with the scarlet mists swirling around it.

> You actually hear Tenshi announce this attack, the power behind it: "Hisoutoken of all Humankind!" she cries, as he unleashes a massive blast of scarlet energy from her sword.

> You're not sure why you could hear that from inside the pocket dimension, maybe the power of the emotions Tenshi gathered is the reason.

[Hanzo K.]

>Grin. "That's the fun of it all. And apparently, while Danmaku hurts, the pain doesn't stick around too long. It'll definitely put you out of commission for a bit though if you take too many hits though. And from how I'm understanding it, you won't catch fire if you get hit by a fireball type Danmaku. It just looks like a fireball."

[Raikaria]

>Grin. "That's the fun of it all. And apparently, while Danmaku hurts, the pain doesn't stick around too long. It'll definitely put you out of commission for a bit though if you take too many hits though. And from how I'm understanding it, you won't catch fire if you get hit by a fireball type Danmaku. It just looks like a fireball."

> "Yes, but surely it feels like being hit by a fireball." the tree youkai says.

> You hear a loud crack, as Tenshi blast makes contact with the ground, splintering the ground. You gotta say... that's an impressive blast, although you wonder if she focused on one emotion instead of fusing conflicting ones, how strong it would be. Right now you'd put it on par with Marisa's Final Spark, maybe a bit stronger. You'd need to inspect the crater to be sure.

> You see Reimu emerge from the blast site. She looks like she was hit, but seemed to block the worst of it, she has a few tears in her arm...things, and her ribbon. She's holding a few talismans that are scorched, so you guess she made some kind of barrier.

> Remilia then floats above Reimu, spread as if she is on a cross.

> "Scarlet Sign: Red the Nightless Castle" you can make out viva lipreading, before Remilia is engulfed in a massive red cross of energy, which engulfs Reimu.

[Hanzo K.]

>"I wouldn't really know. It might. But the way I see it, it's just energy that looks like it. I used a spellcard version of my non-danmaku Tile Shots, They looked like the tiles, and hit about as hard, but weren't my tiles how I know 'em."
>Fistpalm. "Hey, remember that girl from before, Mokou? I bet that fireball she threw was actually Danmaku."
>Let out an impressed whistle. "That was on par with Final Spark almost, maybe even stronger. I'll have to look at the crater after all this."
>Then wince a bit. "Ooh, that one's definitely gonna leave a mark."
>Let's keep watching!

[Raikaria]

>"I wouldn't really know. It might. But the way I see it, it's just energy that looks like it. I used a spellcard version of my non-danmaku Tile Shots, They looked like the tiles, and hit about as hard, but weren't my tiles how I know 'em."

>Then wince a bit. "Ooh, that one's definitely gonna leave a mark."
>Let's keep watching!

> "Really? Well, the idea is not to get hit, so I hope I never have to find out how a fireball danmaku feels like."

> Just as you comment on Remilia's attack hurting, you see what seems to be a blue amulet rise from the ground, spinning, pushing back Remilia's attack, forcing her to fly away.

> Reimu is sweating a bit. She seems to have protected herself from Remilia's attack... at least the worst of it.

> Tenshi and Reimilia look at each other, and seem to talk.

> Tenshi and Remilia both raise a card.

> "Keystone Kaname Funnel" Tenshi delclares, hurling several keystones, which erupt into rings of firey danmaku, like a web.

> Remilia's wings reach out, as she glows with a scarlet aura, the mist thickens, and the moon in the auroura sky turns red. "Scarlet Gensokyo." Remilia announces, as she lets out a spiral of bubble danmaku, which leave behind small, crimson danmaku, before she flaps her wings, and they start to move, before she unleashes another wave.

> As Tenshi's keystones start to move as well.

> The walling potential of this combo is stupid.

[Hanzo K.]

>Let out another whistle. "Damn kid, when those two put aside their issues, they make one helluva team. This one's bound to leave a mark on just about everything. Even the terrain."

[Raikaria]

>Let out another whistle. "Damn kid, when those two put aside their issues, they make one helluva team. This one's bound to leave a mark on just about everything. Even the terrain."

> "Nah, these attacks are all airborne." the tree youkai says. "Terrain's safe."

> Reimu gets completely pelted by danmaku, but unleashes a burst of amulets which home in on Tenshi, and throws some talismans which hit some of the keystones, and cause them to stop making the fire.

> After a short while, where Reimu is forced to make defensive barriers which keep getting broken, she manages to stop Tenshi's attack, and Remilia's attack soon follows. The two stop, looking worn out, and flee towards the shrine.

> Reimu looks worn out, yet, something Tenshi said made her angry, especially as she's heading to the shrine.

> Reimu arrives, and you see Eirin step out. You see Sakuya arrive too, with her watch open, so you can hear.

> "What... are you doing here... *pant*... and why are you in charge of these guys working together?" Reimu says. She looks beaten up, and exhausted.

> "I'm not the mastermind. I am simply a mind, recruited by someone to help make an incident, specifically to defeat you. I don't have any real intention of fighting you anyway. Everything you've faced so far was a diversion to wear you down for her, mentally and physically." Eirin says, before Remilia nods to Sakuya.

> The pocket dimension dissolves, and Reimu looks... horrified.

> "Don't tell me YUUKA'S behind this?! I'm REALLY not in the state to fight her now."

[Hanzo K.]

>Grin. "Wouldn't you like to know?"
>Then give Malus a little twirl. "Look sharp now! I'm next up y'know! It's been a while since we last fought, so I'm lookin' forward to seein' the new tricks you've picked up!"
