Sana:
Karuisuwa, 10:30 AM, Day 2
Sanasan and Renko were strolling downtown, looking for a new restaurant to eat lunch at. After looking at what felt like hundreds of them, they finally decided to just give up and go to their usual cafe. After settling in a booth by the window, they sipped their drinks quietly.
"So, what's on the agenda today?" Sanasan asked.
"I think...it's time to go see Maribel." Renko replied.
"Maribel? Your friend who moved away?"
"Yeah. We used to try to cross the border together, but something came up and she had to change schools. She's only a few hours away by train, but tickets are expensive..."
"So, now that we've discovered that the other side really does exist, you're thinking you should tell her?" Sanasan asked. "Have you called her?"
"I called her last night, but she didn't pick up. Although, she could've just been studying." Renko explained.
"Well, I think we should tell her. Why don't we go and tell her in person? We've got all day after all. And now we actually have money to spare." Sanasan smirked.
"That's a good idea! I haven't seen her in far too long. I still remember she used to get mad because I couldn't pronounce her name right." Renko laughed.
"Well then, let's get going!"
After leaving the cafe, Renko and Sanasan raced to the train station, and were on a train within the hour. Renko was fidgeting in her seat, clearly excited to see her friend. Sanasan serenely watched the scenery go by....

"Alice... you know you will die if you wander too far away from Mitaka" Alexs says with worryed look on his face
Alice retorts "Its hopeless i'm dead weight we will be better off without me it would also ease the strain on him i must do it."
Alex slaps her across the face he hated to harm a women but Alice needs to be brought to some sort of sense he then said " Stop this Alice Please we need to stick together to have a chance."
Alice justs kicks him in the groin trained and skilled martial artist or not it still hurts like hell and brings Alex Down "OOOHHHHHH" Alex shouts in pain

Caber Knight Etch-A-Sketch:
In the hot springs, after the girls left...
Austin deactivated the OC device he borrowed from Nitori.
" That," he muttered to himself, " was the most terrifying bathe I've ever had." So much for relaxing.
he slowly made his way to the exit and placed his ear to the door. They were still there, talking about stuff. At least they were distracted.
He walked back to retrieve his laptop from one of the rocks which, thank god, no one noticed.
Now that that's done, it's time to deal with this nosebleed. Jeez, if Nitori of Momizi knew what happened, they would be so pissed off.
Going back to the door, quietly, he checked to see if they were still there. Nothing. Coast was clear.
All that was left to do was meet up Nitori and Momizi. They had to be close by, Austin thought, I can feel their presence.
He managed to home in on their location. Upon entering the room, he found Momizi and Nitori huddled together, sleeping.
" Well, it has been an exausting trip." Austin was about to sit down when a metallic glint caught his eye. It was a claymore.
Kojiremi:
*Hot spring of the abandoned shrine*
Koji: Hot Spring
Zei nods appropriately. Everyone was going into the respective changing rooms to get soaked and have some fun in the water and relax somewhat.
Koji: *sighs* I'd rather keep moving but i guess a little soak won't hurt... At least i hope not.
Minoriko and Koakuma were more than willing and ready to take a dip in the water. Patchouli followed soon afterwards after Koakuma managed to pursuade her to come along. Youmu felt more like being alert for the time being than to have some fun went to patrol the perimeter of Shrine. However Kojiro warned her that he wanted her to stay close instead since some of the girls were going in the spring and didnt' want to stretch the links.
Youmu: yes senpai I understand, however i think its rather prudent to keep a watchful eye out...We have pursuers lookin for us....
Kojiro: i know Youmu..I know, but everyone is desperate for even a moment of relief...hell me too *sits down next to Remi in the lounge who isn't in the hot spring. What about you Remi? don't feel like going into the spring?
Remi: No, I don't feel like going in.
Koji: *puts hand on her hat* you've been really quiet lately. is something the matter?
Remi: Nothing...just not feeling well is all.
Koji: Ah, I see I thought you'd be happier knowing that your sister is okay. Speakin of which she's in their
right now having some fun. I'm sure she would be happy to play with her older sister for once?
Remi:...*sigh*....
Youmu:.....senpai i'm gonna jump into the spring as well for a bit.
and with that she left
Koji: alright have fun I'll stay here for now and rest for a bit.
After watchin Youmu leave and head into the girls changing room, He found a couch to rest on and laid there.
Remilia followed and sat next to him.
However she suddenly found herself staring at him while he rested and ironically he ended up sleeping
Remilia: "He must be very tired keepign 5 links with us. I don't like it but if we are to survive we need him to be alive as well."
Koji:......*sleeping soundly*
As she watched him sleep she realized she was staring and turned away from his sleeping looking. However, she couldn't deny that she enjoyed looking at him sleep.
She got up from sittin next to him and approached him even closer. She was about to attempt somethign she had never done in her 505 years of living.
She approached his cheek and pressed her soft lips onto it.
He stirred for a bit and she blushed even more at the site. She was totally alone with him in the lobby and pressed another cheek kiss however...
Lily Black: ...GET DOWN OR TAKE COVER. SOMEONE IS WATCHING US. POSSBLY WITH THE INTENT TO HARM."
In response to the yell Koji snapped up in surprise and Remilia snapped back even more surprised and fell backwards on her bottom
Remilia: mukyu!
Koji: What?! When?! O_O What happened?! *is looking around rather amusingly*
Remilia: I-i-don't know! someone in the spring yelled.
Remilia was way more concerned with teh fact that she was so close to him without him knowing, but he simply scooped her up instead and went near the changing rooms.
Mitaka: There's a sniper on the area!
Zei: That perverted bastard I'll kill him!
Owlbear: I'm sure being perverted is the least of his priorities!
Zei: doesn't matter i'll still waste him! D<
Remilia: sniper? what's that? *floating next to him*
Koji: something very dangerous and sneaky...imagine danmaku that is very fast that comes from someplace you can't see...and it kills you suddenly
Remilia: ! danmaku that powerful is just wrong! how do you defend against something like that?!
Koji: you can't. its so fast and sudden you'll never know at all unless your expecting it and luckily for us someone must have seen him....Dammit i can't go out there because the girls are still in the spring!
Remilia: so..we're stuck here under threat and siege by one person? ...
Koji: yeah...this isn't good.
Soon after however Lily Black came running past them to see Alex in the men's side. Koji and Remi followed to get the news.
Alex: Lily is everyone ok what happened?
Lily Black: Lily White sent me a warning via a link i have with her has my ablity. and yes we are all fine just worryed about the person's intention and sis also said that her Partner will deal with the sniper...she even says that she'll make him talk. she also says we sould ignore any odd ticks or whirl noises unless we want to lose control and act silly... crazy but i trust my sis
Alex: very well we will stay put and hope for the best go back to the girls and tell them the situation is being handled and for them to stay in hiding as best as possable.
Lily Black: Yes Dear
she turned to leave and saw Remi and Koji standing behind her and they moved out the way so she can return. They sat in the lounge again near the stairs to stay away from any windows
However Youmu came from the upstairs and came down fully clothed.
Youmu: Senpai! I saw 2 people out there in the brush.
Koji: O_o dam! i thought you was out there with the other girls?!
youmu: I was going to go but i thought to patrol area from the windows upstairs. After the fairy screamed I took action to watch from the windows to see if i can spot anyone and i did! It was over the hill behind the spring area.
Koji: i see. Well we need not worry. Apparently Lily White has a partner who can deal with the sniper herself so we'll have to rely on her for now.
Youmu: Oh...that's who the other person was?
Koji:....you saw 2 people?
Youmu: affirmative i thought they were both enemies.
Koji: lol you have very good eyes. Good work Youmu *pats her head*
Youmu: geh...*embarrassed* thanks senpai but its all due to training at home
Remilia felt that sting again. She quietly held her chest with her hand and spoke up
Remilia: well we'll have to wait here until he is taken care of. After that we should move out as quickly as possible.
Youmu + Koji: Affirmative.
After the sniper has been subdued some members of Team FUBAR asked Koji to help move Taka-san who was injured.
Koji: There we go...Poor guy he's all tense and whatnot.
Myon: yeah the mana sharing is a huge strain its not easy
Koji: yeah...*sigh* I hope he'll be able to do it.
Myon: left to see hear the questioning
Reimu thanks them both for helping her husband and they soon left to hear the questioning as well. Youmu said she'll relay any important information through her ghost half so told Marisa to hang onto it.
Marisa: i thought you can't be far without this ze?
Youmu: i can't be we're just going outside since the man was dragged closer, it won't be too bad i think
The sniper was subjugated to Armarillo's Mind Trap and everyone was around to get information.
Youmu:..."I knew it was a bad idea to take a break here in the hot springs"
Koji: I knew it was a bad idea to stay here....
Minoriko: "I knew i shoulda enjoyed the hot spring sooner...."
Koakuma: " I knew M'lady was more buxom than she lets on!"
Patchouli: "I knew i shouldn't have gotten into the hot spring"
Remlila: "I knew i shoulda killed youmu when i had the chance...."
While everyone was having their questions (or lack of questions) the interrogation continued and ended.
Kojiro and his team went back to the shrine and gathered their things. Kojiro talked to Zei about heading to his place for REAL relaxation for a while and they agreed.
Hotspring Shrine 8am Day 2 (while the girls are drying off and getting clothed)
he went to the other teams and told them that he and Zei were gonna head to his estate in town
Owlbear: you live around here?
Koji: yeah i came here mostly to stay near the border and go to and fro from time to time.
Alex: sweet i didnt' know you lived near here, I have a dojo i was raised at that is nearby too.
Koji: oh really? sweet i didn't know you was a member of that dojo. I went there once but i got lazy and dropped out ^_^;
Alex: hahah well the training is rather difficult but its very rewarding.
Taihou: So your leaving to go to your place?
Koji: Yeah I live nearby so and we have a big group here so I'm gonna take us to my estate as well. I have good amounts of space but its not like a hotel or anything. If you and your wife Sakuya wish to stay with the Mistress i definitely won't mind it at all. i know how dedicated Sakuya is for sure but its up to you guys
Taihou: Yeah i'll have to see, i don't want to give you any imposition or anything. And Mokou isn't exactly the friendliest of "guests"...
Zei: yeah THATS' fer sure >_>
Koji: hehe. Well its up to you guys. your all welcome to drop by anytime if you need food or something. Alex Zei and I could help train anyone in any sort of combat style they want i suppose. We have your dojo and i have a weapon stash at home. Anyway , its 17385 Snoover's Hill. Its the Blue/Red house you'll see. I painted it myself haha its basically the expensive part of town after the revolution many of the expensive homes were downsized to keep values the same and equal for everyone however, there was excess money so they built up lots of fancy houses there with even fancier names.
Mitaka: oh yeah? what is yours called
Koji: *sweatdrops* "The Opposite of a Lack of Common Sense"
All was silent as the room name was spoken
Yukari:....ara? *from the other room*
Koji: ^_^; Well later fellas lets stay safe, but i have to get these girls some food soon. I've been "feeding" them more and more mana to quiet their hunger and i'm NOW starting to get drained ^^ Abayo
They exit the changing rooms and go to theri respective teams.
Zei:.....wait, what? you guys haven't eaten in nearly 18 hours?
Koakuma: YEAH!! why aren't i hungry! i wanna eat!
Patchouli:..........
Minoriko: i can't even feel hunger but i knwo i'm hungrier than Yuyuko right now!
His team was startin to give him evil "+_+" glares because they didn't realize that he was doing that to himself and to them.
Koji: okay okay! i promise you we'll get food as soon as we get to my place i swear!!
after much bickering and climbing on him and generally playing around (even youmu got in on it) they left.
Those few moments of playing and teasing was enough to help them enjoy themselves and forget about the incidents that occurred even for a moment.
Karuisuwa 8:30am "The Opposite" mansion
Koji: finally home at last
What stood before them was a large red and blue mansion with lots of windows and decorated bushes. ((OOC just think the Tohno Mansion or something XD only red and blue))
The girls thought it looked odd but they wanted to satiate their unfelt hunger and hurried him to open the door. They entered alon with Zei and his team and he told them to make their way to the living room and relax there while he makes something to eat.
Remilia however followed him instead and went to the kitchen
Remilia: not too shaby in my opinion *yawns*...however this may be rude of me but my sister and i will need a place to sleep soon.
Koji: oh yeah that's right. But...*looks at her body which still doesn't have wings nor her red eyes* I don't think the sun will affect you at all in your current state. *continues to prepare food*
Remilia: yes i noticed too *is standin in the window with the sun beaming on her*
Flandre: sis..so it is true that we aren't affected by the sunlight? *stands in the sun with her* *no reaction*
Remi: yes it is true. Vampires don't exist in this world anymore so we have no such features here.
Flan: i miss my wings though.... *yawn* and i'm so very tired still....
Koji: it may take a while but it might be best to get used to bein up during the daytime now.....
Remi: yes i suppose so.
Flan: doesn't matter for me i suppose I'm normally up at random times when i lived at home.
They conversed for a bit until the thing he was baking was done.
Koji: hehe ever had a Pizza?
Remilia: never heard of it. I just hope its good
Zei: DOOOOOOD I SMELL PIZZA! HURRY THE FU-HELL UP!!
Koji: XD I'm comin man!
When he seated everyone and gave them all a personal pan pizza from the they prepared to eat
Then the front door opened.
??: *sigh* what a day the boss is being so picky and*sniff sniff* who's making pizza?
Koji: Pearl in here!
Pearl: Koja?
The woman named Pearl ran into the living room and was seeable to everyone. She had a long white dress with lavender eyes and white hair. She was beautiful and everyone knew it.
Zei: O_O DOOOD.
Remilia: Koji? this is Pearl? she is rather...pretty
Koakuma: Wow! who are you lady??
Pearl: Umm Hi everyone....I didn't know daddy had company...
Everyone: WHAT!?!?!? DAD?!
Remilia looked very betrayed at this and demanded an explanation.
Remilia: You never told me-us that you had a daughter!?
Patchouli: and a pure looking one at that.
Koakuma: so....
Minoriko: ...pretty
Koakuma: I'M CALLIN YOU BIG SISTER FROM NOW ON!
Pearl: eh? heheh oh wow Dad has a bunch of interesting friends
Koji: NOW NOW EVERYONE! its not what you think. *cough* this is Pearl my adoptive daughter.
Pearl: *bows* P-please to meet you all ^_^
The room was still very awkwardly silent.
