Daiyousei Quest - Greater Fairy; Part 7

[Evil_Nazgul0616]

>Dai 7: Systematically destroy the ship by taking out its components.

[Neovereign]

Dai Clone 7:

> Look around what we can see of the deck of the boat. Is anyone else on the boat visible from here?
> Are there any good hiding places visible from our current location?

> You look around. You can't see much from the end of the boat, but the deck seems empty anyways. You think someone, or two people, are at the front, along with a steering wheel.
> There's not many good hiding spots at all from what you see. There is the thing holding up the sail.
> The ship fully passes into the strange land, and you feel a little bit ill.
> "You sure you want to be dropped off anywhere?" Someone asks from the front.
> "Yeah..." Marisa's voice replies, and one of the two fly off of the ship.
> "Good luck!" The other yells, and starts to move the ship forwards, turning it slightly.

>Dai 7: Systematically destroy the ship by taking out its components.

//The fact that Dai has started to be able to absorb others and their powers really fits well...
> You start destroying the ship, until you're confronted by th-

Dai Clone 12:

> "Because Miss Marisa and Miss Alice are a match..."

> "Oh, a couple." Byakuren looks back for a second. Then sighs. "Well, it's nice to know that some humans and youkai can get along so well."

Mini-Dai 9:

> Scrabble down Reimu's head next to her ear and whisper again.
> "Don't worry, Dai Clone 7 is on the boat."

> "So you can tell what's happening?" Reimu asks.
> Hourai gets up after a while and flies over to Shanghai, taking her hand.
> "S-Shang? (Huh?)"
> "Rai Hourai Rai. Rai Rai Hourai Rai Rai. (We're going Shanghai. To help Alice get her new doll.)" The two leave Alice's house.
> "So Marisa's gonna be stronger?" Cirno asks in the thoughtscape.

Remaining Dai Clones at the Shrine:

> Reorganize our circle to cover for the fact that 7 is now gone. Put 15 on front porch duty this time.

> You reorganize the circle again, leaving #15 in charge. It's going to get difficult to cover the shrine efficiently if this keeps up. Thankfully, no one's around still.

[Evil_Nazgul0616]

>"Yeah, one of the people on the boat just asked Marisa if she was sure she wanted to be dropped off 'Anywhere'. And someone just took off. I couldn't see who it was though."

[Kilgamayan]

>"Yeah, one of the people on the boat just asked Marisa if she was sure she wanted to be dropped off 'Anywhere'. And someone just took off. I couldn't see who it was though."

> Make sure Mini-Dai 9 says this instead of anyone speaking out loud. Don't wanna blow our cover!

Dai Clone 7:

> Fly our way toward the front of the deck, to try to make out the figures.

Dai Clone 12:

> "Yep! They're a really good match. But if Miss Marisa leaves without Miss Alice, how will it work anymore?"

Dai Prime:

> I guess she's gonna try? A year is way too long a time, though!

[Neovereign]

>"Yeah, one of the people on the boat just asked Marisa if she was sure she wanted to be dropped off 'Anywhere'. And someone just took off. I couldn't see who it was though."

> Make sure Mini-Dai 9 says this instead of anyone speaking out loud. Don't wanna blow our cover!

> "Guess she did take it kinda hard then." Reimu says.

Dai Clone 7:

> Fly our way toward the front of the deck, to try to make out the figures.

> You fly close to the front of the deck. You can see Marisa flying off into the area, while there's this girl with short black hair, wearing a white shirt and skirt. She has an anchor on her back, as if it were a sword. She also has a white hat. She's apparently piloting the ship.
> You can spot another figure starting to follow Marisa from a distance. It doesn't seem like it came from the ship.

Dai Clone 12:

> "Yep! They're a really good match. But if Miss Marisa leaves without Miss Alice, how will it work anymore?"

> "Hm... Well, if it's love, it should be able to persist." Byakuren says.

Dai Prime:

> I guess she's gonna try? A year is way too long a time, though!

> "She's probably gonna be real powerful when she gets back too!" Cirno says.

[Evil_Nazgul0616]

>Dai-ble 0-7: Examine other figure.

>Dai Collective: Ponder the possibility of warping into this new world from the other world using the Mini Dai on the other side.

[Neovereign]

>Dai-ble 0-7: Examine other figure.

>Dai Collective: Ponder the possibility of warping into this new world from the other world using the Mini Dai on the other side.

> You examine the other figure _{^{with your golden eye}}. It's someone that's not wearing any clothing, and it seems they also have wings of moderate size. Not too big or too small. They have long hair too. You can't really tell anything else from this distance, and they're only getting further from you and closer to Marisa.
> You think about how warping here would work. Can you even be able to warp between worlds? There'd be only one way to find out...
>_

[Kilgamayan]

Dai Clone 7:

> Warp ourselves so we're behind the mystery figure following Marisa. Be sure to be several yards back, so they don't immediately spot us.

Dai Clone 12:

> "But for a whole year??? Will it really??"

Mini-Dai 9:

> "Should we bring her back?"

Dai Prime:

> I guess...but I don't want Miss Marisa to be gone for a year...

[Neovereign]

Dai Clone 7:

> Warp ourselves so we're behind the mystery figure following Marisa. Be sure to be several yards back, so they don't immediately spot us.

> You warp behind the figure and get a better look. It's... Koakuma...

Dai Clone 12:

> "But for a whole year??? Will it really??"

> "Makai has this miasma which is very toxic, but on the other hand, it strengthens magic. It's the ideal place to develop spells, if you can survive, and even get there in the first place." Byakuren says.

Mini-Dai 9:

> "Should we bring her back?"

Dai Prime:

> I guess...but I don't want Miss Marisa to be gone for a year...

> "Maybe... Makai is very dangerous, especially for a human..." Reimu starts to think about it.
> "Oh yea... But we still have each other!" Cirno cheers back up.
>_

[Evil_Nazgul0616]

>What. It can't be her! She was in the library...
>Dai 7: Double check to make sure it's not someone who looks similar. Warp again if necessary.
>If it is her, WHY IS SHE NAKED!?!

[Neovereign]

>What. It can't be her! She was in the library...
>Dai 7: Double check to make sure it's not someone who looks similar. Warp again if necessary.
>If it is her, WHY IS SHE NAKED!?!

> Your little devil can't be this nude.
> That can't be Koakuma. You already visited her last night. If it is, why is she naked, and how'd she get here?
> You get a bit closer. There's the long red hair. The wings and head wings. Her tail as well. You are still following a bit behind them though, as to not get caught.
>_

[Evil_Nazgul0616]

>Whelp, there's only one way to know for sure.
>Have one of the mini Dais with Dai prime leave Alice's house.

>Dai (Number to be determined.): Fly up, use several large or max distance warps to quickly go to the SDM.
>>Descend to the front of the mansion. Greet Meiling if applicable. Are we able to grow? If so, grow to the same size as Dai Prime, or if we can't get that large, then grow as large as we can manage without threatening growth reserves or the other mini-dais before we greet.

>Dai 7: Keep following.

[Neovereign]

>Whelp, there's only one way to know for sure.
>Have one of the mini Dais with Dai prime leave Alice's house.

> You let one of the Mini-Dais leave your chest. You now only have 18 mini-Dais and 1 mini-Cirno with you. (I think...)

>Dai (Number to be determined.): Fly up, use several large or max distance warps to quickly go to the SDM.
>>Descend to the front of the mansion. Greet Meiling if applicable. Are we able to grow? If so, grow to the same size as Dai Prime, or if we can't get that large, then grow as large as we can manage without threatening growth reserves or the other mini-dais before we greet.

> The one that left starts to warp to the Scarlet Devil Mansion, getting there quickly. You pass by more fairies going in the other direction.
> You grow to Dai-Prime's size.
> You get down. Meiling and Orange are both sleeping in a bed with a roof over it. Where'd that come from...

>Dai 7: Keep following.

> You continue following the two. Koakuma(?) keeps her distance and only seems to follow Marisa.
> Marisa coughs a little. She starts to cover it with her hand and examines it, before wiping it on the side of her dress.
>_

[Evil_Nazgul0616]

>Dai 9: Whisper to Reimu: "^{_{Marisa just coughed, and apparently got something on her hand... Also, somebody who looks like Koa is following her, I'm not sure if it's her though, I just sent another me to the mansion to check...}}"

>Dai Collective: What time of day is it?

>SDM Dai (Let's call her "Dai X" for now, since I'm not sure what numbered Dais were with Dai Prime.) :  Approach the gate, Meiling, and Orange.

>Dai 7: Continue following. Examine Marisa.
>>Does this "Koa" have a similar body to what we've seen of our Koa? That could distinguish things, right?


//AAAAAAGH! Too many Dais to manage!

[Neovereign]

//AAAAAAGH! Too many Dais to manage!

//Kirby Daiyousei mass attack*

>Dai 9: Whisper to Reimu: "^{_{Marisa just coughed, and apparently got something on her hand... Also, somebody who looks like Koa is following her, I'm not sure if it's her though, I just sent another me to the mansion to check...}}"

> "Hm. Let's go back to the shrine. Keep telling me anything that happens to her." Reimu starts to head for the door.

>Dai Collective: What time of day is it?

> It's still the early morning.

>SDM Dai (Let's call her "Dai X" for now, since I'm not sure what numbered Dais were with Dai Prime.) :  Approach the gate, Meiling, and Orange.

> You get to the gate. They're both sleeping together, and Orange is holding on to Meiling. It's cute... They're the only ones outside.

>Dai 7: Continue following. Examine Marisa.
>>Does this "Koa" have a similar body to what we've seen of our Koa? That could distinguish things, right?

> She is near the same height as you, as your Koakuma was. You can see the almost spot on wings, hair, and tail. You can sort of see her breasts from behind her and Marisa, but not too much. If only you were fused with Sunny, then you could cloak and check.
>_

[Evil_Nazgul0616]

>Dai X: It would be impolite to enter without being cleared by the gatekeeper. Gently nudge Miss Meiling.

>Dai Prime, 18 reserve Dais, and Mini-Cirno: Follow Dai 9 and Reimu.

>Dai Collective: Inventory of incorporated magic and magic we've incorporated into our being from fusions

>Dai 7: Continue following, report any findings. Monitor status of both Marisa and Koa(?).
>>How does the ambient magic here feel?
>>Look around.

>Shrine Dais: Status report.

>Dai 12: "If you can get here? Is it normally hard to do so? And what do you mean 'if you can survive'!? I-Is it possible that Miss Marisa could... _^...die...?"

[Neovereign]

>Dai X: It would be impolite to enter without being cleared by the gatekeeper. Gently nudge Miss Meiling.

> You nudge Meiling. She starts to open her eyes slowly, and yawns.
> "Mornin Sakuya-san." She opens her eyes. "Oh. Daiyousei. Hi." Meiling sits up. "Huh?" She starts to examine the bed she and Orange are in.

>Dai Prime, 18 reserve Dais, and Mini-Cirno: Follow Dai 9 and Reimu.

> You start to follow Reimu back to the shrine.

>Dai Collective: Inventory of incorporated magic and magic we've incorporated into our being from fusions

> Magic: You have Aya's, Koakuma's, Marisa's, and Alice's  magics within you currently. You are also fused with Cirno. However, the only ones with Koakuma's magic are Dai-30 and Dai-chan (Prime).

>Dai 7: Continue following, report any findings. Monitor status of both Marisa and Koa(?).
>>How does the ambient magic here feel?
>>Look around.

> Koakuma(?) seems to be looking to her sides cautiously as she follows Marisa.
> The magic feels very intense, but there's also a greater gross feeling than the Forest of Magic's
> You look around. The place is very dark. There's barely anything else here. There may be a few figures in the distance far, far away, which is where the three of you are apparently headed.

>Shrine Dais: Status report.

> There's no trouble around.

>Dai 12: "If you can get here? Is it normally hard to do so? And what do you mean 'if you can survive'!? I-Is it possible that Miss Marisa could... _^...die...?"

> "Yes and yes." Byakuren says. "I assume she is prepared to take such a risk, but she has gone there before and even fought most of the time there. She's much tougher than a regular human."
>_

[Evil_Nazgul0616]

>Dai X: "Good morning Miss Meiling!" smile. Speak that soft enough to not disturb Orange.

>GoldenDai 007: Keep following, watch Marisa's condition.

>Dai 12: "But... If it's hard to get there... Is it hard to get back too?"

[Neovereign]

>Dai X: "Good morning Miss Meiling!" smile. Speak that soft enough to not disturb Orange.

> "Good morning. What brings you here today?" She smiles back at you.

>GoldenDai 007: Keep following, watch Marisa's condition.

> You continue. Marisa breathes in deeply, then out once. She starts to descend to the land below. Koakuma backs up some, and starts to descend too.

>Dai 12: "But... If it's hard to get there... Is it hard to get back too?"

> "Yes it is of course." Byakuren says.
> The ship starts to emerge from practically nowhere. That sailor girl is still piloting it.
>_

[Evil_Nazgul0616]

>Dai X: "I want to see Koa, but I thought it would be impolite to enter without clearance..."

>Dai 7: Follow.

>Dai 12: "But, if she used that ship to get in... And it's coming back... And it's very hard to get out... H-How is she going to get back out!?!"

[Neovereign]

>Dai X: "I want to see Koa, but I thought it would be impolite to enter without clearance..."

> "Oh. I guess I can call for-"
> Sakuya exits the mansion's doors.
> "Oh. Okay." Meiling says.
> "Good morning Daiyousei. Meiling." Sakuya says. "What have you come here for?"
> "Good morning Sakuya-san. How are you?" Meiling asks.
> "It seems today won't be going as hoped. There's a bit of a problem." Sakuya replies.

>Dai 7: Follow.

> You follow Marisa and Koakuma(?) until they reach the ground. You freeze and stop where you are before descending any further when Marisa turns and spots Koakuma(?)
> "You?" She asks, moving back some.
> "H-Hey, wait. I-I need help." Koakuma(?) covers herself up. "I just want to accompany you, because it's too dangerous for me alone."
> "Sorry, but I've got business. You stay by me, and It'll be worse for you than this place normally would." Marisa says, before turning back around.
> Koakuma(?) waits for a few seconds, before she starts to head away from Marisa.

>Dai 12: "But, if she used that ship to get in... And it's coming back... And it's very hard to get out... H-How is she going to get back out!?!"

> "We'll go back for her after a year." Byakuren says. "We'll wait for her as long as it takes when we get there. Even search for her if she's still gone."
>_

[Evil_Nazgul0616]

>Dai X: "I came to see Koa. What's going on?"

>Dai 7: Was that Koa's voice?
>>If so:"Koa? I-Is that you?"
>>>Attempt to warp one of the reserve Dais (Behind Koa, of course) in to keep following Marisa.

If successful
>Warped Dai: (Let's call her "Dai Y") follow Marisa.

[Neovereign]

>Dai X: "I came to see Koa? What's going on?"

> "It seems all of the fairies have left. Besides the Three Fairies of Light..." Sakuya says.
> "A-All of them?" Meiling whispers.
> "The one time we were all asleep. Though, I shouldn't have been asleep for this long. Maybe I need to rest more frequently or sooner." Sakuya says.

>Dai 7: Was that Koa's voice?
>>If so:"Koa? I-Is that you?"

> It was definitely Koakuma's voice.
> Koakuma(?) turns around and looks up to you.
> "D-Daiyousei!? H-How did you get here!?" She questions. "I-I don't care. I'm so glad you could get here. It's much too dangerous for me to travel alone." She flies up to hug you.

>>>Attempt to warp one of the reserve Dais (Behind Koa, of course) in to keep following Marisa.

If successful
>Warped Dai: (Let's call her "Dai Y") follow Marisa.

> You attempt to warp one of the Dais in to pursue Marisa silently, but try as they might, they cannot warp here.
> Marisa turns around at the sound of your name, and frowns, before starting to fly away quickly on her broom.

[Evil_Nazgul0616]

//Well shit, so much for a warp rescue. Or safely getting 7 back...

>Dai 7: Grow to normal size and return Koa huggles.
>>"I warped onto the ship that brought her here."
>>Point at Marisa.
>>"I didn't want her to hold a grudge against me... A-Anyway, why are YOU here!? ...And why are you naked?"
>>Blush slightly over the thought that a naked Koa is hugging us.
>>DO NOT lose sight of Marisa

>Dai X: Did any of the fairies we passed resemble any fairies we've seen working at the mansion?
>>"Well... At least you still have three, right?"

>Dai 9: "Huh, what is Koa doing there?!"

>Collective: Wonder what would happen if a Mini-Dai got completely cut off from the rest of us.

>Dai 12: How far has the ship progressed?
>>Do we remember the layout of the back of the ship enough to warp a reserve Dai (Let's call this one Dai Y, like before) from Dai Prime's group onto it?
>>If so, do it.
>>If we are unable to do so, have Dai Y warp onto the deck, discreetly, as close to the ripple as possible, and have her swiftly and stealthily make her way to the rear of the ship.

//Okay guys, the Palanquin Ship seems to be our ONLY window right now if we want to extract people... So we either need to find some way to stop the ship halfway (Either by convincing Byakuren to stop it, or with a Mini-Dai distraction) or stall it (via the same methods), or extract Dai 7, Koa, and possibly Marisa before it crosses over fully

> You and Koakuma hug.
> Koakuma hastily breaks. Her face is outstandingly red.
> "I-I forgot I was... ^{_{B-But it's forgiven, for you...}}" Koakuma covers herself up. "T-This is Makai. I already told you before, that I go here when I die. Ah!" Koakuma seems to remember something. "The fairy maids were leaving the mansion, and I was awoken by that time. They saw me, and uh... there were too many... My clothes don't come with me when I die and come here or when Lady Patchouli summons me. At least, to and from Makai."
> Marisa is going pretty far away, but you manage to keep sight of her. You need to keep following or she'll get out of sight however.

>Dai X: Did any of the fairies we passed resemble any fairies we've seen working at the mansion?
>>"Well... At least you still have three, right?"

> You think they had on the maid outfits. Perhaps you should've paid attention to them...
> "I suppose..." Sakuya says.

>Dai 9: "Huh, what is Koa doing there?!"

> "Koakuma? Huh..." Reimu says.
> "She's there too?" Cirno questions.

>Collective: Wonder what would happen if a Mini-Dai got completely cut off from the rest of us.

> You seem to still be able to relay what you see. But what happens if she dies?

>Dai 12: How far has the ship progressed?

> The ship is starting to come back. It's not halfway through yet, as the pilot seems to be taking her time with being careful.
> You do, but you can't really tell exactly where it is right now, which seems to be required to warp there.
> Dai-Y warps onto a bit of the front of the deck, recalling where the ship was when the deck was last visible. She is right next to the ripple.

> Status report bcuz confusions:
> Dai 15's group at Reimu's shrine still hasn't sighted anything unordinary.
> Dai-chan (+ many mini-Dais), Dai-9, Mini-Cirno/Dai-1, Suika, and Reimu's group is only a bit away from the shrine.
> Dai-7 is in Makai with Koakuma.
> Dai 12 is talking to Byakuren a bit near the ship.
> Dai-X is at the Scarlet Devil Mansion's entrance with Orange, Meiling, and Sakuya.
> Dai-Y is on the ship, next to the ripple thingy to Makai.
>_

[Evil_Nazgul0616]

>Dai Y: Stealthily cross into Makai, remaining on the back of the ship. Stay unnoticed. Remain on standby.

>Dai 7: "S-So you died... Is Patchouli summoning you the only way for you to get back? Because right now we have a small window to go back to Gensokyo... What would happen if you went back without a summoning? And how long does a summoning take?"
>>"Also, Cirno-chan and I wanted to talk to you. But that can wait until you're back home safe."
>>Warp Marisa closer, but not too close. We aren't ready to keep following her yet. And we can't risk her leaving while we talk to Koa.
>>"Um... Koa... You know your power? I know it sounds a bit odd, but hi-per-thee-tick-ly...What would happen if the mini you got completely cut off from you and died? As in, say you had the other you go to another world, and that world was then sealed off..."

//Yes, Marisa may not like it, but we don't really have a choice... However, I won't do this to her repeatedly. If she doesn't wanna come back, then so be it. Koa and Dai 7's safety is our main concern.

>Dai 12: Continue to report the status of the ship.

>Dai X: "Well, I saw a bunch of fairies a while back, maybe that was some of them?"
>>Describe the distance we saw them and how fast they were going.

>Dai 9: "Yeah, ok... so apparently almost all the fairy maids in the mansion just left, and apparently they killed Koa on the way out... She said she goes to Makai whenever she dies..."

>Thoughtscape Dai Prime: Yeah... You heard what happened... But we can ask her our question once I get her safe and sound!

//The plan is to use Dai Y as our way to bring Dai 7, Koa, and possibly Marisa back... Under no circumstances have her leave the ship unless absolutely necessary. And I'm turning in soon, so hopefully you guys can handle this for the next 8-9ish hours.

...whoa.......

Miniking... wtf ?

Dai-chan 12:

>"B-But Miss Alice won't handle one year ! And i don't want her to spend an entire year like that ! It's all my fault ! If i had never suggested the duel she would have been still here !"
>Hug Miss Byakuren.
>"I can't even keep my friends happy....."

[Neovereign]

...whoa.......

Miniking... wtf ?

>Dai Y: Stealthily cross into Makai, remaining on the back of the ship. Stay unnoticed. Remain on standby.

> You cross over into Makai. You can barely make out a few tiny figures, which must Dai-7.

>Dai 7: "S-So you died... Is Patchouli summoning you the only way for you to get back? Because right now we have a small window to go back to Gensokyo... What would happen if you went back without a summoning? And how long does a summoning take?"

> "It's normally the way I use. Makai is so hard to get by in, especially when there's others around, then you can't get by at all..." Koakuma trembles a bit.
> "I guess I would lose that magic, but I think it'd still come back through me eventually."
> You warp Marisa closer as she tries to fly away.

>Dai 12: Continue to report the status of the ship.

Dai-chan 12:

>"B-But Miss Alice won't handle one year ! And i don't want her to spend an entire year like that ! It's all my fault ! If i had never suggested the duel she would have been still here !"
>Hug Miss Byakuren.
>"I can't even keep my friends happy....."

> The ship is about halfway through now.
> Byakuren hugs you back.
> "It's okay, Daiyousei." She starts to stroke your hair. It feels nice, and caring. "Marisa is strong, so she should be able to hold out for a year."

>Dai X: "Well, I saw a bunch of fairies a while back, maybe that was some of them?"
>>Describe the distance we saw them and how fast they were going.

> "Hm. It could be them leaving." Sakuya says. "They're allowed to leave anytime, but I didn't expect them all to just go all at once... Mistress will be slightly upset about this..."

>Dai 9: "Yeah, ok... so apparently almost all the fairy maids in the mansion just left, and apparently they killed Koa on the way out... She said she goes to Makai whenever she dies..."

> "Huh... That sounds rough." Reimu says.
> You and your group reach Reimu's shrine.

>Thoughtscape Dai Prime: Yeah... You heard what happened... But we can ask her our question once I get her safe and sound!

//The plan is to use Dai Y as our way to bring Dai 7, Koa, and possibly Marisa back... Under no circumstances have her leave the ship unless absolutely necessary. And I'm turning in soon, so hopefully you guys can handle this for the next 8-9ish hours.

> "Okay." Cirno says.

[Kilgamayan]

//Proposal: Once we drag Marisa (and Koa) back from Makai, we get permission for Dai Prime to fuse with Flan and borrow her power, then combine Koa cloning with Four of a Kind and temporarily recreate mansion staff with 120 Dai Clones while Dai Prime goes off and investigates other things.

[Suwako Moriya]

> Retroactively make Dai Clone "X" Dai Clone 16.
> Retroactively make Dai Clone "Y" Dai Clone 25.

(Here's the list of who stayed behind to guard the Shrine.)

Dai Clone 16:

> "Oh no, that's bad...hmm..."
> Put on a thinky face.

Dai Clone 7:

> "C'mon, we gotta catch up to Miss Marisa and tell her what happened!"
> Fly after Marisa.

Dai Clones guarding the Shrine:

> Gather back around the returning group.
> Dai Clone 30: Give Reimu and Dai Prime a salute. "Status report! 7 is talking to a naked Koa, 12 is talking to Miss Byakuren, and 25 is hanging out on the ship! No other problems, Miss Reimu!"

Dai Prime:

> Where's Suika, and how's she doing?
