>"Aww. Well, that one should still work right? Because I was thinking you could use Blazing Star, or that card, to zoom up the center path real fast and keep her busy while the rest of us catch up."
>Check the ribbon, just to be sure.
> "Well, I could ~ze... but the spellcards are just a restriction in danmaku fights. I can go that fast normally anyway..." Marisa said, adding, "My top speed is pretty bad compared to the Tengu or Youmu and a few others too..."
> "We also don't know if Rika's set any traps." Rikako said, before stateing, "I know how she thinks. I'll go ahead. Besides, she's my ex-coworker. I think I should try and give this one last chance to talk it out first."
> Rikako waited a few moments. "There is also something I must say. While I am a woman of science, I have powerful magic, although I lothe to admit or use it. I am a magical human who turned to science. Rika, however, has no magic. At all. She fully embraced science, as it was all she had. Her technology is probobly on a higher level than the Kappa and my own. My theory is that she didn't need the reactor itself... but the miniature sun Utusho created for it."
> Rikako pauses. "Her complete lack of magical ability should reveal an obvious danger, right, Miss Hakurei? Remember when you last fought her, the spellcard rules were not in effect?"
> "She has no magic... she's not limited by the spellcard rules, because she can't make danmaku..." Reimu said.
> "Exactly. She isn't limited in what she does. What Rika does... can be fatal, unlike the mere danmaku. While we would be shooting to stun, or at worst wound, Rika is likly to be shooting to
kill, if shooting at all." Rikako said.
> With that, and the deathly silence that followed, she started up her jetpack, and flew down the corridor.
> Mystcia has calmed down now.
> You reach to check your ribbon. Your hand is pushed away. You are not in life-threatening 'I would certainly die if I was sealed' danger right now, after all.
