"Ha-ha-ha! She's finally finished, my master!" a tomogara in the form of a big grandfather clock chuckled. In front of them was a giant flask containing purple liquid-like fluid, it was boiling, to inspect more closely, a figure was inside the flask.
A fetus . . . A tube was connected to the fetus and a human sacrifice.
"Master, what exactly is your experiment? You said she'll be our comrade, right?"
An old man was staring closely at the flask, looks like he was on his fifties; he has a gray beard and a spiky white hair, wearing a lab coat, he was holding a notebook and binoculars, inspecting the flask time to time, from the looks of it he was a scientist. They were inside a laboratory, he and his assistant, Clockworks, piles of wires were jumbling at the side, and a supercomputer that beeps every time the flask boils, the rest of the room were empty. The laboratory was dark and only the computer was giving temporary light.
"I bet you have heard about the newly born Flame-haired, Fairy-eyed hunter, right?" the old man said. "After I saw you, Tomogara, you have completely defied my laws of physics, and I am grateful for that,"
"Of course, Master Albert, she is the successor of Alastor, the great Lord of the Crimson Realm, and now, you have been creating an embryo to copy his successor's abilities and powers, are you sure it will be accurate enough?"
"I am a genius, as stated by all existence in Earth, Clockwork, I have created Frankenstein, and turned out to be a failure, but when you appeared right before me and introduced the flame hazes, I have somewhat learned that Science can be defied, I learned how to create a man-made flame haze, just so you watch, Clockworks," he insisted. The flask boiled again, the fetus inside was starting to form, like a baby. His eyes feverishly narrowed.
"But you must hide her existence, Clockworks, once she is born; she will still be vulnerable until she opens her eyes,"
"Cert-"
"FUZETSU!"
The ground turned hollow, time had stopped, and all existence was immobilized. The flask stopped boiling, the fetus was wrinkling like dying, Albert hurriedly ran to it and tried to provide air for the fetus, the fuzetsu had stopped the flow of air for the fetus, and the air can only be obtained from a Torch, and only from torches, without the air, the fetus will become abnormal, and will rapidly grow but becomes an unexpected result.
"No! Clockworks! Stop them!" he pleaded, protecting the flask from being broken.
"He has been defeated, de arimasu" a pink-haired woman in a mask, she was wearing a maid outfit consisting of purplish dress with puffy sleeves, a white apron and a yellow ribbon tied on her neck.
"Y-You are Wilhelmina Carmel, the manipulator of objects!" he cried.
"Certainly, de arimasu," she wields her ribbon and it hit the roof, causing a giant fireball that exploded. Rocks began to fell down, the building was grumbling.
The scientist struggled to protect the flask from the falling rocks.
"Please, stop! I wish no harm!" he cried loudly, hugging the flask tightly, small rocks hitting on it, he connected the tube under the flask in him, the fetus eventually breathed air from the torch, the scientist.
"You had created a flame haze that is not part of the crimson world and has not contracted and no one to bound, de arimasu," she said as she fly off with ribbons under her feet.
"Manipulator of objects! Come out now!" shouted a blonde-haired woman, wearing a white dress and riding on a large green book.
"I have to destroy the flask, de arimasu," Wilhelmina said to the scientist.
"Please, this is a masterpiece, she will not cause any harm, she is just an artificial flame haze, and she cannot be compared to your strengths," he pleaded, but the building was greatly damaged now, at any minute, they will be buried alive.
"I am sorry, but it must be destroyed, she is not part of the outlaw and will be a disgrace if ever it lived, de arimasu," she wielded long piece of ribbon from her mask, and hit the flask, it shattered into pieces, throwing Albert away and knocking him down, a giant rock fell on him, Wilhelmina was too late to save him. The liquid inside the flask dried up and rocks grumbled more, thus the building collapsed.
"Did you destroy it?" the blond-haired woman asked.
Wilhelmina looked at the collapsed building, doubting if she really had destroyed the forbidden existence. Margery was eager for an answer and so Wilhelmina created a conclusion.
"Yes, it had been destroyed, de arimasu,"
"Hah, and I thought this would be fun, it hadn't last for even fifteen minutes, now go on with your life, manipulator of objects," Margery supposed and left the site. Wilhelmina stayed for almost half an hour, waiting for there might be some more to come, making sure that all are settled, when she noticed there is none, she left the place and flew away.
"Are you still having second thoughts?" asked Tiamat, who was in the form of a headband, the Crown-and-Sash of Fantasies.
"None, de arimasu," and with that, Wilhelmina was out of sight.
The rocks moved faintly . . . And a hand burst out from the rocks.
