Chapter 01:
Taiyou Shoujo
Part 1
This world where once a peaceful place...
Until out of nowhere, the Immortals arrived.
Lots of people died... lots of people lost their home... every one wishes for a savior.. and one day, those wishes were granted.
A vampire hunter carrying a weapon that can actually kill an Immortals arrived and purifies the immortal one by one...
They are called the 'Solar Children'
But the Solar Children wasn't enough.
Hundreds of years have pass and hundreds of Solar Children were born and died, the Immortals still rule this world.
And today's Solar child, Ringo, turned to a father of two children.
He named them Cressent and Sol.
Even if he had two children, only one of them can be the Solar Child.
It's because the mother of this children is the Moon Beauty.
But another unexpected thing happen...
Cressent were kidnapped by a vampire and Ringo were killed by that same vampire. The Moon Beauty suddenly disappeared, leaving a two years old Sol alone.
She was instead, raised by Ringo's friend, Steel Smith, and teach her the basic of using swords and the weapon that pass down from generation to generation: the Solar Gun, Gun Del Sol.
Unlike an ordinary weapon, the Gun Del Sol can only be used by the Solar Children and no one else. Being Sol is the last Solar Child for today, she must learn everything before she set out on this journey...
Part 2
9 years have pass on, a girl with a long blonde hair suddenly come down from the stairs of a certain house. She wears a black long sleeved shirt, a grey skirt and a pair of black metal plated boots. On her forehead, there is a grey colored headband like helmet that protect her face and doubles as her eyes sun protection. On her waist, there is a belt with the gun case containing the Gun Del Sol attached to it and on her neck, a long red scarf was tied. it was the crimson scarf... a scarf that was pass down from her father, Ringo.
"Smith!" she called out the man who was forging a sword downstairs. "I'm ready to leave!"
"Oh, already?" Smith questioned her before putting the sword he forged on the bucket of water. "I thought you will leave this afternoon."
"C'mon. If I actually leave that late, who knows what can happen to me during my journey."
"You're right. It will be bad if you fought Immortals during the night... especially the Gun Del Sol need sunlight to recharge its battery."
"Well, at least you realize that..." the blonde said, grabbing the apple in the table before taking a bite.
"and that's why I forged this for you."
"A sword?"
"Yes. So in case you need to continue your journey at night or the Gun Del Sol ran out of battery when you are still inside the dungeon, you still have some weapon to use." Smith continued and show her a sword.
It was a dual edged sword. But it's not too big for Sol to slash around. She walk over her adopted father with a curious face. She grab the sword with her free hand, while the other still hold the bitten apple, and toss it in the air before caching it again with her hands .
One...
Two...
Three...
And more before she looked at her reflection in the blade.
"Hey! Not bad! It's not that heavy to swing around at all! Thanks, Smith!"
"No problem. As long that I can help the last Solar Child then I'm fine." he commented.
Putting the sword on the sword case and wearing it on her back, the Solar Girl leave the house and give her goodbyes to the people she pass on.
But before she leave the front gates of the city, a voice suddenly stopped her in her tracks.
"Sol!" Called by a middle aged man.
Sol looked behind her and saw a man with blonde hair and deep blue eyes. He waves at the young Solar Girl while walking towards her direction with a smile. Instantly, Sol waved back.
"Keep!" She called.
Well, that man's name is not really Keep. He never reveal his true name to anyone. But since he ran the coffin shop in the town of San Miguel, people call him "The Coffin Shopkeeper". And that seems to be too long for the Solar Girl to say it specially while on the rush, so she calls him Keep. And it seems like he don't really mind being called like that.
"Why did you call me for, Keep?"
"Well..." Keep replied while scratching the back of his head. "... Father said that you will leave today and go to the City of Death to fight Immortals. But then something come up in my mind."
"What is it?" Sol asked curiously.
"If you defeat an Immortal... Where you should put it?"
"Good point..." She said to herself, scratching her chin and looking at her metal plated boots at the same time.
"WHICH!" Keep suddenly said a bit proud of himself, making Sol stepped aback due to surprise of his sudden tone of voice. "Is the reason why I made you this!" And he toss a blue card in the air.
Sol's eyes followed the blue card in the air, waiting it to fall back down to the ground. But instead of falling down, when the card reached its highest point, it shone so bright, forcing her to cover her eyes. When she opens them again, she saw a yellow coffin complete with eyes, a mouth that shaped like a pipe, four feet under it, a chain on the front so you can drag it and a red sun logo on its cover.
Sol looked at it like she was staring at a ghoul about to split its liquid kloroforun on her direction.
"What's that?" She finally asked.
"It's my newest creation! The living Coffin, Elefan!" Keep introduced Elefan to her and kneel down to tap its cover. "It has magic, wont break easily even if you slash it with swords or shoot it with Gun Del Sol, it has feet so you can drag it easily, turns to a card when not in use so you can fit it in your pocket, and IT TALKS!"
"Pao!" The coffin Keep called Elefan, suddenly speak and closed its eyes.
"And this is made only for you, Sol!" He continued and the coffin suddenly returned to a blue card with a strange *POOF!* sound. Keep grab it and give it to Sol. "That's why I painted it yellow with Sun logo!"
Sol only stared at the Keep then the blue card and smiled rather weirdly.
"O-okay...? T-thank you very much for creating a coffin for me to use, Keep..." She said and took the card from his hand.
"No prob. Just visit me if Elefan start acting to weird. It still need for repair if you use it too much."
"Ahh... I'll remember that. Anyway, I have to get going."
"Yeah. Me too. There's no one in the shop right now. Who knows what may happen." And with that said, Keep turned around waving a goodbye at the young Solar Girl from behind. Sol only waved back before staring at the card once again.
"Living Coffin, huh?" She whispered to herself.
Part 3
-Istrakan - City of death-
Istrakan or also known as the city of death, is very big compared to other city. It is located on the western part of the country, not too far from San Miguel. It will only take you an hour to get there if you walk. Upon arriving in Istrakan, Sol were greeted by a strange white light in the front of her. The light was so strong that it even force her to use her arms as a shield to protect her eyes. When the light disappeared and a strange creature welcomed her. It was a sunflower but not an ordinary sunflower. it's a floating sunflower with eyes and mouth that shaped like nose. It faces Sol... or rather HE faces Sol.
"I've been waiting for you, Solar Girl."
"Huh?" Sol asked out of curiosity while staring at the talking sunflower in the front of her.
"My name is Otenko. I am the messenger of the Sun sent here on earth to guide the Solar Children and protect all living things. Also, your father, Ringo, is one of my greatest partner."
"Wow, really? You and father were partners before?"
"Yes. In fact, he was the strongest Solar Boy I've ever guided. I wanted to see if you can be as great as your father or even greater than him."
This statement of Otenko made Sol rub her nose using her index finger and wink at the messenger of the sun.
"Of course I'll be a greater Solar Child than my father! If I can't surpass him, then I will never kill the vampire that killed him or find my missing brother." She replied.
Yes. One of her goals on this journey is to find her missing brother. It will be difficult for her because, unlike the others, she was actually searching for someone she doesn't remember any longer. No sign where her brother is, no clue that can tell her who is he and no marks that can tell her where her brother was last seen.
All she know was the 4 years old appearance of Cressent she saw on a fading picture on her old house and nothing more. But its still not enough. What if Cressent's face change after 9 years of not seeing him?
This is going to be hard for Sol but still, she's very determined to find Cressent no matter what.
"Alright. I will look forward to it." Replied Otenko before staring at the north. Sol, being curious, she followed Otenko's gaze before turning all serious.
Up on the mountains of the north, there is a giant castle. They are not sure if someone actually still lives there but still, its pretty strange to find someone living in the City of Death itself.
Sol finally rise her head.
"Is that where we going?" She asked with a rather serious tone of voice.
"Yes. I sense a very strong vampire there."
"Does that mean-"
"Yes." Otenko cut her sentence out. "The one who killed Ringo might be there."
Sol gulped and keep on staring at the castle from afar. The wind breeze brushed her long blonde hair back and fort and the two long part of her crimson scarf but it seems that she doesn't care at all. She took a deep breath and finally made her decision.
"Lets go." She said and ran inside the forest to reach the castle in the top of the mountain.
Otenko followed her from behind, making sure that he will guide the Last Solar Child on his best. After all, she was the final hope of the world...
Part 4
- Fog Castle-
- May 16, 10:40 AM-
- Time before sunset: 7 hours and 10 minutes -
Forty minutes have pass on, Sol finally reached the top of the mountains. The castle she saw from afar, below the mountains earlier was now in the front of her, letting her examine it clearly.
It was pretty old. Like no one lived there for hundred of years. The castle walls were filled with molds and crawling plants, and bats were flying around the top.
"This is it." Otenko said behind the Solar Girl. "We are now in the Fog Castle. Solar Girl, this is where your first mission will start. You have to purify the vampire lord sleeping inside that castle."
"Yeah. But... For my first mission, isn't that pretty... Harsh?"
"No. I'm very sure that Count haven't recover yet from the piercing shot of the Gun Del Sol your father have delivered. Vampires takes a lot of time to recover from it. Some take days, some take months and some even take years to fully recover their strength."
"Gun Del Sol sure is a powerful weapon." Sol commented, staring at the solar gun on her waist.
"Indeed. It's the only weapon that can kill Immortals. But the solar gun alone isn't enough to stop the Immortals from reviving."
"Huh? They can revive?"
"Yes. In order to completely kill them, you should use this." And with that said, Otenko glowed in a golden colored light. The earth began to shake and loud rumbling noise can be heard. "TAIYOU!" he shouted making the ground bellow them shine in white light.
Sol, under this new experience, start to panic and look at her surroundings. The ground is not cracking at all but its shaking non stop and not to mention, glowing too. She wanted to step out of it but her legs was too weak to do so. So instead, she just closed her eyes, waiting for the ground to finish shaking.
In less than 10 seconds, the ground stop shaking. Sol opened her eyes to see what happened and the first thing she saw made her gasp.
The ground suddenly flattened and there is a strange glowing mark below her feet. It looks like Crop Circles but with a coffin mark on the middle and a glowing emblem at the southern part of it.
"What...?"
"This is the Pile Driver." Replied the not glowing anymore Otenko. "It's the strongest weapon that ever invented by the Solar Children to fully kill an Immortal. It was blessed by Father Sun and Mother Earth and like the Gun Del Sol, only the Solar Child can use it." He explained.
"Oh." Sol said and kneel to the ground. She examine the Pile Driver by running down her fingers on the coffin mark which is right below her. The Pile Driver seems to react on her touch since it glowed for a second with its white colored light. The light all started from the coffin mark she touched and travel down to the other parts of it like a ripple.
"We better get going." Otenko's voice snapped her back to reality. Sol just nod and finally stood up from her kneeling position. When her fingers left the emblem below her, it stopped glowing and it now waiting for her to use it.
"Right."
Part 5
When they reach the front gates of the castle, something weird catch the attention of the two.
There are no undead anywhere. All they can see is the dusty ground and many giant crates covered with white cloth. There are no weird sounds either. Only the wind breeze and her metal plated boots hitting the ground can be heard and nothing more.
"Its too quiet..." Sol commented, still looking around the area like she was waiting for something to appear. Well, for an abandoned place like this, its pretty impossible that there are no single undead living on it.
"Be alert, Solar Girl." Warned the talking sunflower. "Undeads are not picky when it comes to location."
"I know that mast- WHOA!"she tried to reply but cut when she trip on something. Sol tried to stand up, but it feels like there are someone or something stopping her to do so. Annoyed, she looked behind and gasp.
Her legs were glued to the ground by a sticky spider web. Finally, the sound she was waiting made its entrance. Scratching noise of something sharp being rubbed in the wood welcomed her ears and when she looked at the origin of the sound...
"Oh dear..."
She finally saw an undead.
It was a spider. But not the tiny little spider you can see on old houses or buildings. This black spider in the front of her is as big as a human itself. Its six eyes stared at her like she was nothing but a lunch for it to eat.
Sol hurriedly push herself up the ground using her arms until she was in a kneeling position and start shaking her legs to remove the spider web that glued her to the ground. However, she also notice that the black spider was charging at her direction as fast as it could.
"Come on... Let go already!" She cursed.
The spider was just a few feet away from her when reality finally hit her that it was impossible for her to escape this 'sticky situation'. So instead of trying to break free, she just grab the Gun Del Sol on the gun case clipped on her belt and quickly fired a Solar Shot on the spider's face.
The Sol powered bullet that the Gun Del Sol shoot out was enough to pierce on the spider's body and it didn't stop going until it finally hit one of the giant crates. The spider fall down instantly with green colored blood sipping out from its dead body.
Now that the spider was lying dead beside her, she can now focus on escaping the trap she was in. In less than a minute, she finally escaped and for some reason, the web that catches her turned liquid and evaporate.
'That's weird...' She thought and finally stood up from the ground. But once she took her first step and look in the front of her, she gasped once again.
"I'm starting to believe that bad luck does exist..." She said to herself.
In the front of her, she can see three more black giant spiders crawling out of the old crates. Her senses also told her that they are still more behind her. And it looks like all of the spiders were hungry and think of her as a food. She's nit making any moves yet. Rather, she just grip her Gun Del Sol more tighter and ready to pull its trigger any time now.
Finally, the long staring contest between her and the spiders ended. The first spider charged at her with its claws ready. Using her quick reflexes, Sol quickly grab the hilt of the sword behind her and use it to slash the three legs to the right of the spider. Its green blood painted the dusty ground but even with its three legs separated from its body, its still alive. So, before its body hit the ground, Sol used her Gun Del Sol to fire a Solar Shot directly on its face. Like the other spider, the Solar Shot pierced through its body and bore a hole from its head to its big stomach.
Still after seeing this, the other spider still attack her. The second one shoot out a spider web at her direction but she used the blade of her sword to shield it and fired a Solar Shot on its body. The third, fourth, fifth and sixth spider charged at her direction at the same time, trying to use their giant bodies to slam at her. Sol only stabbed her sword in the ground and point her Gun Del Sol on one of the spiders. However, instead of just clicking the trigger like what she does to fire a Solar Shot, she hold it down making the gun release its infamous Solar Spread. Without letting go of the trigger, she rotate the direction of the gun clockwise, making sure that it will hit all of the spiders before it hit her.
All the spiders fell on the ground with its legs curled on their body like they are wishing to lessen the pain they feel. But after some seconds, they stopped moving.
Sol finally averted her gaze from the dead spider and took her sword that was still stand on the ground.
"Gun Del Sol really ARE strong!" She said in a rather amazed tone and Otenko suddenly appeared behind her.
"Don't tell me you haven't use it yet!?"
"I did. But not on real undead. I thought it was weak since it can't even bore a small hole on the old wooden walls of our old house!"
This reply made Otenko sweat drop. "You use the Gun Del Sol to destroy your old house?"
"My trainer said I can since our old house was already destroyed after the undeadening."
"I can't believe I'm saying this but I'm glad that you didn't have all the lenses of that gun..."
"Wait! This gun have other lenses except this yellow one!?" She asked, tapping the yellow lens right on the top of the solar gun.
"Yes. 5 more I guess... And I believe one of them have the power to burn woods..."
"...Oh... Now I get it why you said that your glad I didn't have all of them!"
Part 6
Sol opened the old wooded door of the castle slightly and take a small peek. The room was a little dark and the sunlight that was escaping from the glassless window was the only light source in the area. Realizing that there are no undead at guard, she opened the door more widely and enter the room, making sure that she's not forgetting to close it behind. She looked around while walking slowly and carefully, not wanting any noise catch the attention of any enemies. But while she do so, something bothered her again.
"Is this what real castle looks like? Pretty different from the one I read on the countless books in the Library..." She said to herself.
Its not look like it but when she was still young, Sol spend her day reading books in the Library. Well, that only happens when her 'trainer' give her a day off... But at least it happens. The stories she liked the most was something about kingdoms and royals and even the librarian was amazed of her after she borrowed that book more than ten times in three months. But unlike the description of the interior of a castle written in that book, this place is rather... Empty...
No colorful glass window, no red carpets, no curtains, no chandeliers, no suit of armor, as in nothing. Only the moldy brick walls and candle stand full of melted candles can be seen... Oh, and a small table full of more melted candles. Well at least it have candle stands... Still, even the castle of the main bad guy wasn't this empty. She can't even see a single mirror or even a broken mirror inside.
"Well this place is abandoned for countless of years." Otenko replied behind her. "And I believe that they don't understand the word 'decoration'."
"Maybe you were right..." She said before climbing the stairs. But once she reach the top, she quickly hide in the nearest wall.
A ghoul was guarding the door that leads to the next room.
'One Solar Shot should be enough...' She thought and grab the Gun Del Sol once more. Aiming for the ghoul, who haven't notice her yet, she pulled the trigger but something is wrong...
"What?" She whispered in a confused tone.
She pulled it again. And again... And again but nothing's happening. Only the clicking sounds resulted by pulling its trigger can be heard.
"No way!" She said in disbelief, still keeping her voice low so the ghoul wont notice her. She pulled the trigger more and still nothing's happening.
'I RAN OUT OF BATTERY!' Sol mentally shouted and start to panic. Because of this, Otenko curiously appeared beside her and look at the Gun Del Sol on her hands.
"Is something wrong?" He asked in a low voice.
"The Gun Del Sol ran out of battery!"
"What!? You can't be serious, right!?"
"Of course I am! If not, I'm not panicking here and shoot that ghoul out of the way!"
"Buku!" The signal was made. Because of Sol's sudden rise of voice, the ghoul suddenly notice them. She looked at the ghoul again and saw that it was walking on the hallway that leads to their location.
"Looks like I don't have any choice..." She said, slowly grabbing the hilt of her sword.
"Wait!" Otenko warned her still in a low voice. "Ghouls are undead type! You can't defeat it without the power of the Sun!"
"How am I suppose to do that now that the Gun Del Sol have its battery drained?"
"For now, we should sneak out of this place. Find any ray of sunlight so you can charge your gun back." It was Otenko's advice before he suddenly roled to a ball and disappeared in thin air.
Sol gave out a sigh and finally let go of her sword. She peeked behind the wall, trying to see what she can do to attract the ghoul's attention while she escape. Upon her investigating, something catches her attention.
Two large crates with a big gap in the middle not too far from her.
She was now confused on the fact that this castle had so many crates on it. Both inside and outside. Is this really a castle or a warehouse? But at the same time, she mentally thanked the one who put those crates. Seeing that the ghoul was still a little far from her and those crates, she quickly changes her location from behind the wall to the gap between the two crates. And the fastest way she know to do it is to roll.
Lucky for her, the ghoul haven't noticed her yet. Sol took another glance on the ghoul, who was still looking around for the source of the voice it heard earlier. She flattened against the wall and knock three times.
"Buku!" It was successful. She successfully get the attention of the ghoul.
When she heard this signal, Sol quickly hide right behind the crate so it wont see her. She waited for another signal. A signal that will tell her to stop hiding. She took several deep breath with her sapphire blue eyes closed, like she was preparing to run on a marathon.
"Buku?" Her signal arrived. She quickly left her hiding place and run pass the ghoul who was in the wall that she tapped earlier. As far as she knows, or she read in a certain monster guide in the library, ghouls move very slowly and will only speed up once a loud noise catches their attention. So way before the ghoul can turn around, Sol was already out of the room.
She wipe the sweat on her cheek and put her hands on her knees.
"I don't want to do that again!" She said, still catching her breath. But then, something catches her attention...
Above her... It feels... Hot. Not only that, she can also feel some energy entering her body. It was weak, but she can feel it. And there is only one thing that made her feel this way... This is...
"The Sun!" Sol happily shouted and look up above her. The shadow casted by her headband like helmet protect her eyes from the rays of sunshine above her. She was outside. A corridor in the second floor of the castle... Or warehouse? Whatever it is, she doesn't care anymore if this Fog Castle was really a castle. All that matters to her now is the sun was shining right above her.
Without having a second thought, she rise her right hand in the air, like she was grabbing the sun, while holding the Gun Del Sol in the left. She took another deep breath and yell out...
"TAIYOU!"
Out of nowhere, a burst of wind suddenly circled around her and the rays of sunshine suddenly focuses on right hand. it seems that her whole body also glowed in yellow color for a bit, but its hard to tell because of the strong sunlight .
In less than a minute, the wind and sunrays around her died down. This only means one thing.
"Yep. The battery is full once again!" She said rather cheerfully and walked to the next room.
Part 7
The next room wasn't really that big. Rather, it was just some stairs. Three stairs to be exact. Sol reached the room in the top of those stairs without even breaking a sweat. She stared in the wooden door in the front of her and didn't even move.
Something's not right on her. Beyond this room, it feels like there are darkness enveloping around it. She was like ten feet away from the door but she can still feel the darkness around it. It send chills on her spine and suddenly, she felt nervous.
"This is it." Otenko suddenly appeared behind her. "The Count was just beyond this room." He said again but then, he notice something.
Otenko stared at the Solar Girl and gasp. Her face was actually showing intense fear, her right hand was curled in to fist but it was trembling. He can hear every deep breath she took.
'I see... I guess its normal for her...' He thought to himself. For an eleven years old girl to face the vampire lord,who was, by the way, also killed her father, right on her very first battle, of course she will be nervous or scared.
"Don't worry, Solar Girl." Otenko's voice seems to snapped her back. "You are not alone. The Sun is watching over you. And I know Ringo will be there in your side to."
It doesn't do to much for her. But at least, her hand stop trembling. Using her left hand, she grabbed the part of her crimson scarf and closed her eyes. She was thinking of her long dead father even though she can't even remember what he looks like.
After a minute, she finally calmed down and her terrified face earlier were replaced by a determined smile.
"I'm fine now. Lets go, master Otenko!" And she opened the door without second thought.
Before she can even take a step on the brand new room she just opened, a large group of bats suddenly charged on her direction. Like the spiders i the front gates, they all looked hungry and try to bite her. But before a single bat can even land on her skin, she quickly grabbed her Gun Del Sol and use it to create a Solar Spread. The yellow burst of light from the gun was enough to kill the bats in just one hit.
Feeling that all the bats are dead, she let go of the trigger and put her gun back on the gun case beside her.
"A trap..." Sol said to herself.
"But that's not enough to bring you down, right?"
"Of course not. It will be a shame that after my 4 years of training on using the Gun Del Sol and a sword will be thrown away after little bats suddenly bit me!" She said in annoyance and walk to the center of the room.
There is a coffin on that room and for some reason, it had a chain attached on it.
"Is this..."
"The Count? Yes." Was Otenko's short reply. "He must be asleep so its your chance to defeat him."
Sol just nod at her master's words. But then she realize something. She searched on the pocket of her skirt and smiled awkwardly on the blue card Keep gave to her a while ago.
"Sorry, Elefan... But I think this vampire already got a coffin on his purifying package..."
"Pao..." She can hear Elefan's disappointed cry even though it was inside that blue card.
Part 8
A crow rested on the wood inside the room were Sol and Count's coffin is located. And for some odd reason, this crow doesn't have black feathers like any normal crow. Rather, it was chocolate brown.
It seems like it was eyeing on Sol ever since she enters the castle but she never really notice it. Which is, for it, was a great thing to happen. The crow watched Sol to drag the Counts coffin out of the room and it start to follow her again without her noticing. Much to its surprise, she was strong to actually drag an actual coffin with a vampire way bigger than her, out of the castle in less than 15 minutes.
When she reach the front gates where she fought those spiders earlier, the crow rested on one of the crates.
Part 9
Sol finally reached the place where Otenko summoned the Pile Driver a while ago. As the mark on the middle like to represent, she dragged the coffin to the it.
*CLANG!* *WHEEN!*
The Pile Driver let out a loud noise and it glow for a second. Much to the Solar Girl's surprise, four green machines with mirror like plates suddenly rose up from the four circles on the ground.
"Whoa..." She said in amazement. Otenko appeared behind her and examine the situation.
"This is your first Pile Driver experience so I will explain how this works." He said. "The green machine that you see there is called the Solar Generators. These are the machine that will purify the Immortals. But they are not activated yet."
"So how can I activate it then?"
"Simple. Just shoot them with your Gun Del Sol. The Pile Driver will react once you shoot down the last generator. And when it do, go to the southern emblem and do your Solar Charging. And of course, you need sunlight to start the Pile Driver."
Following Otenko's advice, Sol pulled out her Gun Del Sol once more and shoot the generators one at a time. Every time she shoot a generator, the Pile Driver glow in white color and spread in like a ripple.
*WHEEN, WHEEN, WHEEN*
The Pile Driver give out a loud noise when Sol shoot the last generator. She ran to the now glowing emblem in the south, aim for the sun using her right hand and yell...
"TAIYOU!"
Loud rumbling noise followed her words and the generator roared to life. Each generators shoot out a laser that was now hitting the coffin. The lid suddenly opened and a purple smoke come out from it.
"IT'S HOT!" a very unfamiliar voice shouted out. Sol looked behind and gasped. The purple smoke was actually trying to do something to the generator.
"Solar Girl!" Otenko's voice interrupt. "You can't let all the work to the Pile Driver! The Immortal will try to fight it using ectoplasm and they will shut down all four generators! Your mission is to stop it before they do!"
Her speed wont make it in time when she use her sword. So instead, she just use her gun to fire a Solar Shot at the ectoplasm. The ectoplasm moved away from the previous generator and landed to the next one. Annoyed, Sol quickly ran to it and fire another Solar Shot but this time, she calculate her attack's direction. The Solar Shot hit the ectoplasm so hard that it was pushed so far away. But the area where it land is not on the other generator. Rather it landed back to the coffin itself. Because that part was the most strongest point in the Pile Driver, the ectoplasm dissolved in the thin air way before it can escape again. The same unfamiliar voice roared in pain and the generators stopped shooting out lasers. In a flash of light, they returned down to the ground.
"Great job, Solar Girl!" Otenko appeared again in the front of her. "I congratulate because you just purify the Count."
"I... I did?"
"Yes. You did a very good job Solar Girl... Oh..."
"What's the matter?"
"Erm... Come to think of it, I don't even know your name..."
"Oh, right. It was a rush so I didn't had a time to introduce myself. I'm Sol."
"Sol? So Ringo named you after the father sun?"
"Well, lets say that Sol is-"
"So, you are the daughter of Ringo, eh?" The same unfamiliar voice cut out their conversation. Both Otenko and Sol looked around but saw no one else around them. Thick black clouds suddenly cover the Sun giving out their location a really dark atmosphere. "Do you think I will die that easily, Solana?" This sentence made Sol's eyes widen.
In all people of San Miguel, only four person know that name. She don't want to hear that name on someone that she doesn't even know but for some reason, this unfamiliar voice knew it.
"How... Just who are you!?"
"If you wanted to know who I am then give the mansion in the north a visit. I'll be waiting for you there... And so thus Mani... Mwuhahahaha!" The strange voice start to fade as well as the dark clouds that was covering the sun.
"Solana? Who-"
