Wow, these chapters are getting progressively longer. Anyway, Hazama is going to start an incident along with the fairies! Not the usual 'things happen to whole Gensokyo' thing, but still something that a certain part of Internet would call true Touhou fan work :) And Tsubaki finally learns where Jin and Makoto disappeared to.

As always, please R&R!

- 129/05/15 Netherworld, Hakugyokurou -

Youmu didn't let us wait outside for too long. After half an hour, she came back and invited us to the shrine grounds. The first thing we saw was the astounding amount of cherry blossoms growing to the sides of both the stairs and the approach, creating a breathtaking view. The young gardener took pride of her work, telling us that sometimes she even had to use her swords to trim the trees. Not a very productive way... We also saw a massive, seemingly dead cherry blossom behind the shrine itself, but when we asked about it, Youmu only said that it's not a thing Outsiders should know about. We entered the shrine and sat by the table inside, while the young gardener went to get the mistress of Hakugyokurou.

So, what do you think of this place, Jin?" Makoto asked me when the gardener left.

"...Fitting for an afterlife." I said, taking a swig of water.

"Nothing more? Bummer." she said, cupping her face with her hands. "The cherry blossoms outside are just gorgeous... That's it. When me and my family finally get that house in Wadatsumi, I'm planting a cherry blossom there."

"...Whatever." I sighed. I just hope this Yuyuko woman won't try our patience...

Thankfully, we didn't have to wait too long this time as well - after just five minutes, Youmu came back with her mistress. Yuyuko Saigyouji looked much different than we imagined her - she was a fairly tall woman with shoulder-length wavy pink hair. She wore a light blue kimono with white trim and designs as well as a matching mob cap with a veil on the back side and a hitaikakushi with a red 'ghost wisp' insignia on the front.

"You must be those Outsiders Yukari mentioned. Please, make yourself at home." she greeted us.

"Thank you." I started. Making oneself at home in afterlife...No logic here either. "I believe you know already why are we here."

"You want to go back to your own world. Everybody would if they were forcibly pulled out of their normal life." she said, sipping the tea that Youmu brought.

"Exactly. We've heard that you're an acquaintance of Yukari's, so if you could convince her to let us out..." Makoto said.

"Hmm... Maybe I could, maybe I couldn't..." Yuyuko teased, putting her index finger to her lips. "It's not easy to figure out what Yukari's thinking, and even harder to convince her of something."

"Surely she would listen to a long-time friend." I said. The ghost princess smiled in response and took another sip of her tea.

"And why would I want to pester her?" she asked. "There's no hurry, you can simply enjoy your visit to Gensokyo."

"Tell me, do any of Netherworld's residents come from the Outside World?" I asked. Makoto looked at me for a moment, but seemed to figure out what I was going to say pretty fast and didn't object. Yuyuko seemed lost in thought for a moment.

"The Yama direct some of them here, but over the last hundred or so years very few have arrived, and even less were reincarnated." So reincarnation is a thing here...

"And why do you think it is so?" I continued.

"Well... either the number of humans in the Outside has been drastically lessened, or somebody is actively stealing souls. Possibly both." Yuyuko said. Me and Makoto looked at each other, while the ghost princess smiled awkwardly. "Am I right?"

"You've hit the nail right on the head, Yuyuko-san." Makoto sighed after a moment of silence. "The human population has been halved, their souls possibly devoured, and now even more people are being used as war resources, not as soldiers, but as fuel. We need to go back so we can stop it."

"So Yukari wasn't just messing around..." Yuyuko sighed. "How much time do you have?"

"Frankly, we don't know. The Embryo can go unstable at any moment." I said. "We need to get back as fast as possible."

"How unfortunate. Youmu, go to Mayohiga and see if you can find Chen. If you do, inform her that I need to talk to Yukari as fast as possible."

"Right away." the gardener said and rushed out of the shrine. Finally, somebody remotely normal in this place...

"Now that the formalities are out of the way, would you want to stay for dinner?" Yuyuko said.

"As long as we're not the ones served, then sure." Makoto said, to which Yuyuko lightly chuckled.

"Don't worry. Only wild youkai eat people after the Spell Card Rules were established."

"Good to know..." I said, remembering the night encounter with Rumia.


- Hakurei Shrine -

As she always did when she had free time, Reimu was sitting on the steps of her shrine, right next to the donation box, and drinking her evening tea. Inspecting the Great Barrier didn't give any information about the unnatural breach Ran told her about this morning, so all she could do now was to prepare for a new incident. This made her a little grumpy - she'd rather spend time in a peaceful and simple way, like she was doing now

This being Gensokyo, somebody had to interrupt her.

"Reimuuu! I'm baaack!"

"Oh for love of..." the miko stood up, looking around for any sign of a high-velocity impact. Luckily, this time the eternal freeloader chose to mundanely run towards the shrine instead of falling from stratosphere levels. The girl jumped right at Reimu and pinned her to the ground with an aggressive hug.

"It's always good to be back home!" she said cheerfully.

"It would be better if you get off me." the red-white miko deadpanned. "How long you've been partying this time?" she continued when she could stand again.

"Let's see... since the strong liquors ran out two days ago... almost a fortnight!" the girl said, almost hitting Reimu with her large horns as she shook

her head. "Gotta extend it to three weeks next time!"

"Yeah, whatever..." the miko said, leading the perpetually drunk oni into the shrine's haiden.

"Oi, Reimu, why are you so grumpy today?" the small girl asked when the two sat by the table.

"The Barrier has been breached, pretty violently. I'm sure there will be an incident in a week or two."

"An Outsider causing an incident? This is going to be fun!"

"No, it's not going to be fun, Suika. Whatever that was, it was enough to harm the Barrier itself." Reimu said, laying her head on the table. "...Could you
pass the gourd, please?"

"One Ibuki Gourd, coming right up." Suika said with a grin.


- 129/05/16 Gensokyo, Scarlet Devil Mansion -

Hazama slowly started to regret teaming up with the three fairies. While they certainly aimed for the top with their incident plans, the...execution left much to desire. For instance, the scheme to unite all fairies by pranking the one widely considered (that is, by herself) to be the strongest one wasn't a shining example of logic, but he still enjoyed the tale. Their newest idea was to detonate the Scarlet Devil Mansion's clock tower. While a commendable and very fun idea, Hazama did enough research to know this was out of the fairies' league. He expected them to egg him on to join in the mayhem, but not this much. In the end, they formulated a pretty neat plan that actually made use of their capabilities.

Too bad that it left him as the diversion, but it wasn't his first time being one. Should shit hit the fan, he'd tear his way out.

Hazama looked at the sleeping gatekeeper. His Grimoire told him that she was a powerful youkai, capable of easily destroying him in one punch. Nevertheless, her mental faculties seemed to not be of the highest standard. With the analysis out of the way, he moved towards the gatekeeper and gently poked her on the shoulder.

"Excuse me..." he said, but the red-haired woman instantly woke up, catching his arm.

"Rule number 1. You do not. Interrupt. The nap." she said coldly, slightly scaring Hazama.

"O-okay. I didn't m-mean to offend, haha." he said, smiling sheepishly. "Neither did I want to enter without permission, though." he quickly added. The gatekeeper still glared at him, but after a long and awkward moment let go of his arm.

"Can't blame you for making me do my job, though." she said. "Name and purpose, for the formalities?"

"Hazama. I've heard that one of your residents is an expert magician, so I wondered if I could meet her." he said. It wasn't completely a lie - after all,
every opportunity to hone his skill in usage of actual magic was welcome.

"Patchouli-sama doesn't accept many visitors, but if magic is involved..." the gatekeeper mused, and then turned to one of the fairies working in the garden. "Could you go tell Koakuma that a guest is here to meet Patchouli-sama?"

"Right away, miss!" the fairy said, leaving her work and running to the mansion.

"Anyway, my name's Hong Meiling." the gatekeeper introduced herself after a moment, still looking questioningly at Hazama. He noticed the three fairies stealthily moving over the mansion's walls into the gardens, a fair distance away as to not alert the Chinese redhead. "You're not from Gensokyo, are you?"

"No, I'm not. I went for a trip to Japan and somehow crossed over to this world." he said, smiling all the time. "I didn't expect such a beautiful yet deadly place, to be exact."

"You bumped into wild youkai?" Meiling asked.

"Thankfully no, but the gossips are enough proof."

"I wouldn't believe those gossips so much. True, we youkai might be a bloodthirsty bunch as a whole, but it's not like we see humans just as food."
the gatekeeper said, allowing herself to lean on the wall a bit. "The miko helped a lot. Back when there were no Spell Cards around, no human could feel safe outside the Village. And the battles between youkai or youkai and particularly strong humans could last for days, sometimes destroying the battlefield."

"I can see this happening." Hazama sighed, dropping his smile. "Seems even this world isn't safe from weapons of mass destruction."

"What do you mean?" Meiling asked curiously.

"Well, the outside technology progressed very far, to the point that a single hapless experiment running amok was capable of eradicating half the humanity."

"Wait, are you talking about the thing from Bunbunmaru?"

"Precisely." Hazama said. "And only by using the Beast's own power the humanity could defeat it."

"Sounds like Yuuka would have a field day with that monster."

"Excuse me, who?" he asked, a little unsettled. No man or beastkin was capable of fighting with the Beast on equal grounds even when using Nox-class weapons, so the very notion of a youkai strong enough not only to defeat the Black Beast on her own and unarmed to boot, but to actually have fun while doing it seemed preposterous.

"Kazami Yuuka. Trust me, you wouldn't want to meet her." Meiling said, and was about to continue, but noticed Patchouli's familiar, Koakuma, walking towards them.

"Mr. Hazama, yes?" the red-haired devil girl asked. "Master has agreed to meet with you. Please follow me."

"Of course." Hazama said, entering the gardens. Funny how a devil girl, a succubus he thought, was wearing a proper librarian suit, but it wasn't like he was one to argue. After all, he could describe himself as a handsome devil in very stylish human clothes.


- 2200/03/06 4th Hierarchical City [Naobi], NOL Branch -

"What were you thinking, sending them off in a situation like this?!"

Kokonoe once wondered how the ancient Greeks imagined the opening of Pandora's box. Now she could witness one of the possible results - nothing could compare in intensity to Tsubaki's wrath if Jin or one of her friends was in danger, which was the case today.

"Calm down, Yayoi. First of all, we needed Makoto's prowess in field analysis for this mission. Moreover, she needed an escort." Kokonoe explained, trying to keep her own voice level. "Tager was out at the moment since he had to help out with the reactor in Ōkoto. Noel had to search for Ragna in Ibukido. Shishigami is now a personal bodyguard for the Imperator. Jubei still hasn't got back on his legs after Doomsday. Your Immortal Breaker is way too important. Jin was the only one even remotely available for this job and possessing a Nox. So don't give me this 'what were you thinking' shit, because you know well that if it was possible at that moment, we'd have sent somebody else."

"What about that mercenary then? Was she too occupied at that time?" Tsubaki pressed.

"We already had to pull enough strings to make her go on the rescue mission. Did you think how much we'd have to do for her to agree to be an escort to a beastkin?"

Tsubaki wanted to continue, but she was out of arguments for this line of pursuit. She changed her approach, though. "Very well. What happened, happened. In that case, we need to extract them as soon as possible." she said.

"We've already got that covered. They'll be back in no more than a week."

"A week?!" Tsubaki sharply turned her head in Kokonoe's direction. "From what I heard, those... monsters can easily kill a grown man. If they meet any of them, Jin and Makoto won't stand a chance. We need to go now!"

"Calm down, dammit!" Kokonoe shouted, banging her fist on the table. "We can't risk making any hasty moves unless we want Izanami to catch on, so stop your bitching and wait! They'll be brought back soon, and even should anything happen, they're not kids. They can defend themselves."

"If we wait for even a moment, there might not even be anybody to bring back." Tsubaki said and stormed off.

Kokonoe sighed in exasperation and slumped in her chair. She could now understand Kagura's tendency to drink on the job. In a way, Tsubaki was right - Yukari's display of power was only a sample of how creative Gensokyo's residents could get with their abilities. However, should Izanami get the info about any third party being in play, things could quickly get very ugly, especially since she had Ragna under complete control. Earth wouldn't be able to handle another Black Beast, so acting recklessly was something they couldn't afford, and Tsubaki was being exactly that right now.
A telephone rang out, which the beastkin scientist hastily answered.

"What is it?" she spat out.

"I have a question for you, Kokonoe-hakase." the voice said.

"Aren't you Yukari's shikigami?"

"Indeed. Do you know of any technology that can interfere with spatial phenomena?" Ran asked.

"Just say what happened, I'm not in the best mood right now."

"There was a forceful breach in the Great Barrier yesterday. Do you know anybody who could do that?"

Kokonoe seriously needed a drink now. "I'll need to take a good look at this myself. And speaking of breaches, Jin's girlfriend got pissed and is hellbent on taking him back. Tell Yukari she can expect another guest."

"Of course." Ran said. "Good day to you then."

"Yeah, yeah." Kokonoe said, ending the connection and looking at her watch. It was about time she did another checkup on Lambda, so she informed her new assistant to direct any visitors to the medical center and went there herself.


- 129/05/16 Gensokyo, Scarlet Devil Mansion -

The three fairies proceeded with the plan flawlessly. Hazama told them to move as a group: Sunny would make them invisible, Luna would cancel out any noises they would emit (and only those), while Star would detect any movement and plan their route accordingly. This way, they avoided most of the fairy maids, and luckily for them, the head maid seemed to be absent. Soon, they reached the rooftop and went directly to the clock tower.

"Okay, so what now?" Star whispered.

"Now, we blast this thing to pieces! All of Gensokyo will know the Three Fairies of Light!" Sunny said enthusiastically.

"But how are we going to do this?" Luna asked. "Do you have anything flammable, Sunny?"

"Don't worry. I'm sure we can find some conveniently placed gunpowder in there." the redhead said. "And if we don't, there must be a barrel or two somewhere in the mansion."

"Are you thinking what I'm thinking, Luna?" Star asked her blond friend.

"That this is going to be messy? Of course."

In the other part of the mansion, Koakuma arrived at the library wit the sudden guest. Hazama looked around in awe. Even if the place wasn't placed under a space-expanding spell, the amount of books inside would be impressive. This, however, was positively the largest repository of grimoires and assorted books in existence, much larger than the repository at Ōkoto.

"Simply beautiful... A shame it isn't open to the public." he said.

"That's because not everybody can appreciate it." a sickly voice said from behind a stack of books.

"You must be Patchouli Knowledge, right?" Hazama said as he went to meet the library's de facto owner. The girl had long, ankle-length purple hair decorated with numerous small ribbons. She wore a pink, pajama-like dress and a matching night cap with a gold crescent moon decorating it.

"I am. You're here to discuss Outside World magic?" she said in a quiet, monotonous voice.

"In a sense. I'm more interested in a trade of information." he continued, sitting beside the magician. " I'll supply you with information about the Outside magic, technology and assorted things. In exchange, I simply want access to this library's records. Do we have a deal?"

"Depends on your information." Patchouli said.

"I expected no less." Hazama chuckled. "Maybe you've read the latest Bunbunmaru?"

"I don't read papers of such low standards."

"A pity. You can find a real gem even amongst the trash every once in a while." he said, producing the cut-out of the article and giving it to the magician, who immediately started reading.

"Curious. It wouldn't be the first time humanity almost eradicated itself." she said. "But to put whole Gensokyo into temporal stasis without disrupting
the Great Barrier..."

"Indeed. And it stayed the way it was for almost two hundred years. You might want to visit Kourindou in a few weeks." Hazama said.

"I'll pass." Patchouli said, giving the article back to the former captain. "I suppose you are capable of casting spells?"

"I am, but not as well as I would want to be." Hazama admitted. "However, I know a variety of Ars for practically any purpose. Identification, healing, warding, flight..."

"...Battling?" Patchouli asked.

"Those too, but fighting isn't my specialty." he said.

"I'll be the judge of that."

"W-wait, you're n-not serious, right?" Hazama stuttered with practiced ease. True, he didn't really want to fight here, but if somebody only wanted to 'test' him, maybe he loosen up for just a moment...

"Of course I am. Or is it you who isn't being serious with your request?" Patchouli asked, getting bored with the conversation.

"Well, if you put it that way..." he said, rising from his chair. "Spell Card or not?"

"No Cards for now." the magician responded and the two went to the small clearing inside the library. "First blood should be enough."

"Doesn't that put me, a human, at a disadvantage?" Hazama objected.

"I'm not a picture of health, as you can see. It will be adequate." Patchouli said, floating a few meters away from the green-haired man.

"If you insist..." he said, bowing before the duel.

BGM: Voile, the Magic Library

Patchouli rose up into the air, conjuring numerous rotating lasers and a few glyphs shooting danmaku in a spread out fashion. Hazama immediately started analyzing the bullet paths, noticing that a few of the glyphs also started shooting bullets directly at him. Since he wasn't sure if he could use the snake spirits after crossing to Gensokyo, and showing Ouroboros yet wasn't an option, he chose to improvise. Muttering the incantation for the flight Ars, Hazama rose up to Patchouli's level, steering himself to avoid danmaku and lasers as he did. When the incantation was complete, he started to facilitate usage of long-range paralyzing Ars using his [Azure Grimoire] set to a standard level instead of being on standby. For his opening attack, Hazama decided on a fast barrage of fireballs, but Patchouli reflexively created a wall of water to block them.

"A bit of advice: elemental magic won't help you." she said.

"As expected of the One-Week Wizard." Hazama chuckled. "No elemental magic, you say? Alright then..." he said and used his Grimoire to fire bursts of
snake-shaped bullets.

"Interesting... Have you visited Moriya Shrine?" the magician asked, deflecting the snakes with a spread shot of fireballs and dodging the rest.

"No, not yet. Why do you ask?" he responded, avoiding the stray fireballs and changing the form of his bullets to small knives for better piercing ability.

"One of their gods frequently uses snake curse gods." Patchouli said, maneuvering between the numerous knives and preparing the incantation for a larger spell. "Why the snakes then?"

"They are my favorite animals. Despite their usually small size and lack of limbs they can nevertheless achieve fits too demanding for any other species."

"Such as eating prey that is alive and much larger than them?"

"It wasn't what I had in mind, but yes, this too. They can, for example, move through the tiniest holes. Snakes even serve as pest disposal in more exotic countries." Hazama said as Patchouli prepared a large sun-shaped danmaku. Suddenly, she started coughing and dropped the spell.

"What's the matter?" Hazama asked. He almost thought he could drop the act for a moment, but as always fate had something else in store for him. It was infuriating, but he could do nothing short of playing along.

"Asthma." the magician said between coughs. "Back on the topic, I prefer cats in terms of pest control."

"They're nice, but no. I have an allergy to cat fur." he said. He could still remember that embarrassing moment from one of the timelines.

"A legitimate clash of opinions, then. I wonder who will win in this duel: cats or snakes?"

"There's but only one way to find out." Hazama said and resumed attacking when Patchouli got her asthma back under control.

Meanwhile, the three fairies entered one of the storehouses. A dozen of large barrels filled with gunpowder were standing in the corner of the room. Luckily, there were no employees inside, so the fairies could drop their disguise for a moment.

"See? I told you there would be some!" Sunny said, excited.

"Why would they store it here, though?" Star mused.

"Doesn't matter." Luna said, stuffing her pockets full with as much coffee beans and alcohol as it was physically possible. "How will we move it, though?"

"We'll just roll them all the way to the clock tower, shine a beam of very focused light, and BOOM!" Sunny shouted, gesturing wildly.

"But we can't move more than one of them!" Star said. "What if they find them midway through?"

"Let's make sure they won't, then. We'll roll them to the clock tower one at a time and hide them as we do."

"Nice idea, Luna. Okay, let's do this!" the hyperactive leader of the group said enthusiastically and the fairies started to move the first barrel.


A few hours later, the duel in the library became somewhat slower - both Hazama and Patchouli were tired by now, the latter especially because of her illnesses - but still required large amounts of focus from both combatants.

"Gotcha!" Hazama shouted when she landed on the ground for a moment to catch her breath after a truly chaotic, yet also somewhat elegant display of danmaku and by the green-haired man. He quickly fired off a binding Ars with his Grimoire and threw a single knife, enough to draw blood from Patchouli's left index finger.

"Immobilizing an enemy would be considered cheating in a Spell Card battle, but this was a simple magic duel. Congratulations, you outwitted me." the magician said, accepting defeat with grace.

"Thank you. You're no slouch either, Miss Knowledge." he said, landing on the ground. "It's been far too long I've battled somebody of your caliber."

"So you did fight with strong foes before?" she asked, looking into his perpetually closed eyes.

"I said that fighting isn't my specialty, not that I'm a lousy fighter." he shrugged.

"So you have." Patchouli said to herself, and then noticed her lifelong friend has been watching the hours-long battle. "How long you've been here, Remi?"

"From the moment you almost hit him with the quicksilver shower." the girl replied.

"I'm sorry, you are?" Hazama asked after he dusted off his coat and fedora. The girl had shoulder-length light blue hair and a pair of large bat wings. She wore a light pink dress with a small red ribbon on each sleeve and a large one behind her waist, as well as a matching mob cap. A caduceus pendant was hanging from her neck, a little detail that he found very charming in its own way. He hoped she was different from that shitty vampire.

"My, my, you enter a building without knowing the name of its owner?" she said, lifting her hand towards her lips in a ladylike manner. "I'm Remilia Scarlet, the mistress of the Scarlet Devil Mansion. Surely you've heard of me?"

"Well, that's a surprise..." Hazama said, smiling sheepishly. "I didn't expect you to look so youthful." Another brat, then. Looks like you can't have everything, he thought.

"You're not the first and certainly not the last." she said, outwardly pleased with the comment yet noticing the slight insult behind it. "So, the Barrier
still absorbs Outsiders?" she asked as Patchouli lead all three towards the table where she was reading before the duel.

"More than that." the magician said. "Gensokyo was frozen in time for almost two hundred years when humans in the Outside used an unspecified device."

"Curious." Remilia said, sitting by the table. She then turned to Hazama. "And you three have entered by mistake, am I right?"

"Yes, but I've entered independently of those two." he said, giving the vampire his Bunbunmaru cutout. "Since magic was rediscovered somewhere around 2025, a few academies dedicated themselves to studying this art. A small amount of humans is capable of using it, though."

"An academy?" Patchouli asked as Remilia started reading.

"Well, more like a guild, but after the Dark War pure magic users grew even more scarce. Ars Magus is much simpler in use, though less powerful."

Suddenly, a powerful explosion shook the entire mansion. Looks like the fairies did it, Hazama thought.

Outside, the prankster trio were flying away from the Scarlet Devil Mansion as fast as they could. The clock tower was obliterated by the combined blast of a few dozens of large gunpowder barrels.

"We did it! Yes! Finally the whole Gensokyo will acknowledge our cunning!" Sunny shouted happily.

"What about Hazama?" Star asked. The explosion has been a little too much for her nerves, so she still shook like a leaf.

"Don't worry. He said he'll find a way out." Luna calmed her friend.

"Okay, last home takes care of the bottles!" Sunny said, speeding up.

"Hey, wait for us!" Luna said as she and Star sped up as well. "I don't want to spill the whiskey!"

"Good point. All right, first the four of us drink like the oni, and then we'll worry about the bottles." the redhead said. "We'll make the first page of
Bunbunmaru!" she shouted happily.

"I hope the vampire doesn't catch us..." Star whispered.
