Gensokyo is now back. I should feel really happy. Reimu even agreed to go back living there. And we found some of the others too. Like Suika said, they had to be alive somewhere. Gensokyo really existed all along, this served as proof. And others will be probably make it back someday.
I should be really happy things turned out this good. But I'm not...
Alice... Where are you?
There are a lot of things I need to tell you... Our last conversation haunts me.
But then I'll never be able to see you again
But I managed to see others from Gensokyo... Why not you?
Should have I stayed with you back then?
Whatever you do, you can't seem to forget Reimu, huh?
I can't forget you either... That time, I felt something was really wrong and I needed to find Reimu. I thought I could come back for you after getting Reimu.
So you don't care what happens to me because Reimu is the important one?
No that's not true... You have absolutely no idea how much you mean to me
You have absolutely no idea how much you mean to me
Now, I have no more regrets.
But I do!
I never told you how I felt. I never told you I love you. And I made you suffer so many times too...
I do not know where you are right now, but I'm sure you're somewhere. No matter how long it takes, I will find you…
-I won! Now do as you promised Yukari!
-Alright, alright... I'll take you to Makai.
Yukari was one of the first Gensokyo resident to be found and to come back. She escaped to the outside world with the ghost princess to see if they would also disappear when Gensokyo would. But they didn't.
The gap demon was working hard for once, trying to locate the other youkais. But I needed her for something of the most importance.
Soon, the gate between Makai and Gensokyo will close and it will be impossible to come back again.
Makai and Gensokyo have always been separated. So even if Gensokyo would cease to exist, there is no reason why Makai should too. That must mean Alice must still be there.
-Now go. Don't worry; I won't leave without you... Besides if I did, a certain shrine maiden would never stop harassing me.
-Thanks ze!
-Alice!
-Marisa, is that you?
Alice calmly replied without moving.
-Yeah
-Impossible... Gensokyo is gone now...
-No it's not! It has been recreated. It looks and feels just like nothing ever happened!
We stayed silent for a while. With so much to tell her, I didn't know where to start.
-Marisa...
-Alice...
She slowly turned around to reveal her crying face. I slowly walked up to her and embracer her tightly
-Marisa! I thought I'd never see you again... I... I...
-Alice, I was so lonely without you…
-But you still had Reimu…
-I like Reimu a lot... as a friend… You are the only one that I love!
I buried my face deeper against Alice's chest out of embarrassment.
-Tell me that sooner…
-Will you come back with me?
-Of course. We will always stay together from now on, right?
-I promise to never let anything separate us ever again.
-I love you Marisa…
