Chapter 4: Birth of the Scarlet Devil
Bgm: Cornered!(Raidou Kuzunoha vs The Soulless Army)
When the three girls enter the balcony they see a young, short girl(14 years old) wearing a pink dress and a puffy red hat on top of her short, wavy, blue hair, she looked depressed while standing before a black seal, within it, a man wearing a black tuxedo and a top hat over his blood red hair was crucified.
Girl: H-hello? Wh-who are you?[She said nervously]
Sakuya: Are you the one behind this red fog?[She said in a menacing voice]
Girl: Eep! Y-yes I-I'm sorry but...[She was visibly startled]
Reimu: You're scaring her Sakuya-kun.[Reimu said while slightly annoyed]
Sakuya: Whoops, didn't mean to scare you.[She apologized]
Girl: W-well father is cursed, so I-I'm gathering human f-fear...[She is still nervous]
Marisa: That's it? No epic backstory or anything?[Marisa said disappointed]
Girl: T-t-tell... M-me... Your n-names.[The girl asked]
Reimu: Oh! Well I'm Hakurei Reimu guardian of the human capital.[Reimu said trying to be casual]
Marisa: Well, I'm Mizunagi Marisa a magician.[Marisa added in the same tone as Reimu]
Sakuya: And I am Izayoi Sakuya, now tell us your name.[Sakuya said in a confident tone]
Girl: U-umm well, I'm R-Remilia Scarlet a-are you here to k-k-kill m-me?[Remilia's voice started to tremble again]
Marisa: So yer a Scarlet, if ya want to we could kill ya quick and painless.[Marisa said with a relaxed voice]
Remilia: N-n-no! P-p-please! D-d-don't!
Marisa: If I'm not becoming senile then, ain't the Scarlet family one of the biggest sources of magic for demons so they always want to devour ya?[She asked]
Remilia: Y-y-y-yes we are...[She said nervously]
Sakuya: Marisa you're scaring her, leave the talking to me.[Sakuya tried to calm Remilia down]
Reimu: I think we should listen to what she has to say.[Reimu added calmly]
The four girls listened to Remilia's tale about her father's tragic fate. He was to forget who he was and to murder all of his loved ones for five years and then remember for eternity what he did. And how with contacts Remilia had acquired a way to dispel the curse. That means was to scare all humans in a realm to near death and use that fear as a makeshift sacrificial emotion.
Bgm: Irreversible Sadness (Diamond is Unbreakable)
Remilia: I-I didn't know what to do it was all so sudden and I couldn't handle the servants, they wouldn't listen to my orders and even made fun of me, some even tried to kill me...[Remilia said while she started to have tears in her eyes]
Marisa: Oh woe is you! If they didn't obey then make them obey by force! But you're such a wimpy master so it's obvious that they didn't see you as a worthy successor to the family house! So you ran from your problems and tried to make daddy solve them for you! Aren't cha a Scarlet!? Have some pride goddamit! You suck so much ass, I'm thinking of just murdering you and leave your corpse to rot away...[She said in a menacing and furious tone]
Remilia: I-I-I...*sniffle* waaaahhhh![Remilia started crying upon understanding her mistake]
Reimu: Marisa that's enough, she's had it badly too you know?[Reimu scolded Marisa]
Marisa: Shut it Reimu! You don't know what it feels to see all you thought was right be proven wrong! This girl is nothing but a wuss and I'll fix it![Marisa was visibly angry]
Remilia: *hic* s-stop it...please...*slap!* [Remilia got slapped by Marisa]
Marisa: Snap out if this! Or do you want to depend on daddy all your miserable life!?
Sakuya: Marisa stop, I think she gets it.[Sakuya tried to calm down the two]
Remilia: I-I want to bring father back and become independent.[Remilia started to calm down]
Marisa: That's more like it! Heheheh! You want respect? Then beat some respect into the servants' heads![Marisa seems to just want another fight]
Sakuya: Let's help Miss Scarlet, maybe we can get some reward![Sakuya was a bit greedy sounding]
Reimu: I think not, let's just help her and bring her father back to his senses.[Reimu shot down the ideas]
Remilia: Y-you all... Will you really help me?[Remilia said with hope in her voice]
Reimu: Sure! In exchange you will lift the red fog. Do you understando?[Reimu spoke in engrish]
Remilia: *Giggle* You're funny, it's understand no "o" in the word![Remilia had started to laugh in the middle of her tears]
Reimu: heheh.[Reimu said feeling awkward]
Bgm: You Better Treat Me Well!(Raidou Kuzunoha vs King Abaddon)
Sakuya: I have an idea! What if I sped up time in the curse to make it's effects last so little that Remilia's father couldn't forget his family or harm them?[Sakuya suggested]
Reimu: Why didn't you say so earlier!?[Reimu asked]
Sakuya: You never a-
Marisa: Don't. Say. You. Never. Asked.[Marisa interrupted]
Sakuya: W-well I forgot since I don't use it much... Heheheh... [Sakuya said while scratching the back of her head]
Remilia: Are you all really a team? Because you don't act like one...[Remilia asked innocently]
Reimu: Not really, we kinda met today.[Reimu said trying to hide her uncertainty]
Remilia: *giggle* You are really funny and cool too.[Remilia had cheered up after a while]
Sakuya: Well? Let's go! The World Speeds Up!
When the chanting was done the seal and curse around Remilia's father started to quickly crumble into dust and the man had fallen out of the seal. As promised Remilia lifted the spell that summoned the red fog. It all seemed like a happy ending but then...
Man: Uhhhhh... Where, am I?[The man spoke in a sleepy voice[
Remilia: Father! You're awake![Remilia said in a cheerful tone]
Man: No! Stay away! I don't want to hurt you![Remilia's father said in a panic]
Remilia: Father, the curse is lifted the lady here, Izayoi- san, she sped up time to make the curse last much less than a minute![Remilia said feeling overjoyed about what had happened]
Man: Is that so? Then I must thank you. Wait what kind of gentleman would I be if I didn't introduce myself before a magnificent group of ladies. I am Mathias Acerola Branch Olive Scarlet Heart Under the Blade.[Mathias extended his name into an incomprehensible mess trying to reference something]
Remilia. Father you know it's just Mathias Scarlet.[Remilia said in an annoyed voice]
Mathias: I was just messing with them. Really I was![Mathias said awkwardly]
Reimu: Yeah, well I'm Hakurei Reimu guardian of The Human Capital. [Reimu replied just as awkwardly]
Marisa: I'm Mizunagi Marisa nice to meet cha'! [Marisa said in a friendly tone]
Sakuya: And last but not least, I am Izayoi Sakuya, it's a pleasure to meet you. [Sakuya said with a bit of pride in her voice]
Mathias: Sakuya? Like my head maid? That's weird.[Mathias replied almost knowing what had happened]
Sakuya: Oh! What a coincidence! Heheheh...(He saw through my lie) [Sakuya noticed]
Bgm: Breaking Through the Wall (Raidou Kuzunoha)
Suddenly a mysterious girl appears and tries to impale Remilia on a strange clock-hand sword. But then Mathias pushes his daughter away from the blade and is impaled himself.
Mathias: Uhhgg! R-run Remilia![Mathias was bleeding heavily]
Remilia: Father! Nooo![Remilia was devastated, she wouldn't stop looking at her father between her tears]
Girl: You fool! Why did you get in my way!?[She said in a furious tone]
Mathias: Because... I... Don't want... My daughters... Killing each... Other...[Mathias spoke while blood was coming out of 10 different places of his body]
Girl: Liar! You always loved her more than me! It matters not, you will be a good sacrifice for me.[The girl said with some grief in her voice]
The girl in a red dress with a yellow neckerchief and a ponytail on the left of her blonde hair took out a stone mask with fangs from the backside of the dress and puts it on her face and then removes the sword from Mathias' stomach touching the blood on it and paints the mask in said blood. Suddenly, the mask produces spines that impale the girl's head and the eyes start to glow. And somehow, a pair of mysterious, wing-like appendages with strange crystals hanging from them.
Bgm: Awaken(BattleTendency)
Girl: This power is so... AHAHAHAHAHA! I LOVE THIS, THE SCARLET FAMILY FORTUNE WILL NOT BE INHERITED BY YOU COWARD! I FLANDRE WILL BE THE HEIR! HAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHA![The girl had lost all reasoning while shouting]
Remilia: F-father...[Remilia was almost an empty husk, her eyes showed no emotion]
Reimu: Hey Freak show! Eat this! Dragon Fang![Reimu shouted trying to catch Flandre's attention]
Reimu then dashes and thrusts her bokuto into Flandre, but the latter just grabs the wooden blade that impaled her and snaps it.
Flandre: It's useless, useless, useless, useless, useless, useless, IT IS USELESS![Flandre shouted madly]
Sakuya: The World! Slow the time![Sakuya pressed a button in her watch to slow down time]
Marisa: Hey Dumbass! Suck on this! Blazing Star! [Marisa shot a Master Spark behind herself]
Marisa tries to tackle Flandre at a high speed using her Master Spark as a booster. But, Flandre just dodges and seems unaffected by the time slow effect on her.
Flandre: Playtime is over! Taboo: Laevatein! [Flandre summoned a red clock-hand-like sword from her left arm and turned it into a giant flame saber]
Remilia: Flandre stop this![Remilia tried to stop her sister by hugging her, but she was shaken off by Flandre]
Flandre's blazing sword struck the ground and caused a giant explosion that destroyed the entire balcony with everyone but, Marisa and Flandre falling to the grounds below. Sakuya grabbed Remilia and landed inside one of the rooms while Reimu fell to the entrance.
Flandre: Hmph! That was pathetic... Hey you! Witch! Who the hell are you!?[Flandre asked in an annoyed voice]
Marisa: I am the destroyer who burns all in her path, my name is feared even by the gods.[Marisa said with pride in her voice]
Flandre: And that is?[Flandre asked impatiently]
Marisa: I was getting there! My name is Mima, I may be evil but I won't throw a nuke while saying "Fuck you human!" or "In the name of God!" so yeah.[Mima spoke in a dignified voice, for a witch anyways]
Flandre: I frankly, don't care what you think of yourself but, you're the only one here who isn't just a piece of horse shit in the side of the road.[Flandre replied with sadness in her voice strangely]
Mima: Then it's a deal! Oi Hakurei! Don't you dare die before I can hear you scream for help while in the verge of death! KEEEEEKEKEKEKEKEKE![Mima started laughing maniacally as Flandre and herself were flying away from the mansion]
Reimu: Shit... I'm passing... Out... Ugh...
Flandre and Mima leave the now ruined balcony with Remilia, Sakuya and Reimu unconscious and Mathias dead. Reimu's spine broke on the fall, so in the end our heroine dies at the end of this story...
