"So this is Eientei?"

Watatsuki no Yorihime tightened her grip on her sword. Casting a shadow over her was a Japanese-style mansion. It was completely dark, showing no sign of inhabitants. Whoever lived there wanted to give the impression that the abode had long been abandoned. However, it took much more than that to fool the Lunarians. Yorhime looked at her Mystic Moon Dial. The needle was fixed, pointing directly in front of her.

Watatsuki no Toyohime walked past her sister. "Kaguya-saan… Won't you show some respect for your guests? It's been a long journey, you know. Coming from the moon and all."

"Hm? Is Houraisan in there?"

"That was a guess," admitted Toyohime sheepishly. "But not a very bad one. It's the multiple sources on our Moon Dial… They must be Lunarians. And there are only so many Lunarians living on Earth, after all."

"In that case, if it's really her, we'll just take her back to the moon with us, along with the dragon."

The army of moon rabbits behind them had erupted into gossip, upon mention of Kaguya's name. When Yorihime looked over her shoulder to give an icy stare, and the place became silent again.

"They're coming," Toyohime said calmly.

Everyone's attention was brought back towards the dark mansion. For a moment, a soft breeze blew out from within. Then, all of a sudden…

Rabbits.

Hundreds of them, in humanoid form except for the ears. They poured out from all the entrances and windows, and before long, the Lunarians were surrounded. Unlike the moon rabbits, these do not have protective helmets. Aside from that, their overall appearance was no different.

"These are… earth rabbits?" asked Yorihime as she clasped her hands together, ready to cast a spell.

"Okay, now fire!" screamed a voice.

"Too late," said Yorihime smugly. "O spirit of Kiyohara no Iehara, I call upon thee! Show me your defensive might of the Gosannen War!(*)" She thrust her hand upwards in the air.

The hundreds of earth rabbits began showering danmaku of all types from every direction.

A figure of an armored warrior appeared above Yorihime. It slowly disintegrated, and a wooden stockade descended out of thin air. The rabbits' bullets struck the fence harmlessly. Yorihime then threw a sharp glance at her sister, who gave a quick nod.

"Hey, that's cheating!" complained a shrill voice. The sisters looked up to see a single humanoid earth rabbit, sitting on the roof. She seemed to be the commander, standing back, behind the army of earth rabbits.

"Cheating, you say," said Toyohime, twirling her paper fan. After opening the fan, she brought it behind her for a moment. "But what about this?" Then, she swiped the fan in a full circle. A gust of wind slowly expanded in all directions.

And then, it disappeared.

The entire area surrounding them. The patch of grass and shrubs outside of the wooden stockade spontaneously turned into a sizzling cloud glowing yellow. To the relief of the commander, the rabbits had sensed this and had leapt back just in time. Toyohime still stood holding her fan out, as if savoring the moment.

"Mana-infused dust," said Toyohime. A patch of barren dirt now surrounded the group. "A purification method directly imitating the powers of the Dragons. To turn everything into the building blocks of all matter. This power you've just seen can even dissolve souls. Good thing I held back, or else it would have gotten everyone in your mansion."

Some of the earth rabbits were shaking. "I don't want to die!" Some grabbed the earth commander. "Save me, Tewi!" "I'm getting out of here!" With a couple of shrieks and cries, all of the rabbits hurried back into the mansion in a matter of seconds.

"Oh no… This is bad!" the earth commander Tewi muttered in panic.

"Now, everyone," commanded Yorihime. "Attack that earth rabbit!"

There was a brief moment of hustle as the moon rabbits readied their rifles and took aim. Before long, burst after burst of giant bullets sailed in the direction of Tewi. But after a while, they stopped. The rabbit remained at the same place, untouched.

"What kind of aim was that?" Yorihime screamed in fury at her troops, who were now bowing and apologizing.

"It wasn't their fault," said Tewi. "I was just lucky."

Yorihime refocused her attention at her enemy, her eyebrow now twitching in annoyance.

"Well, O lucky one. Will you be so kind as to take us to your mistress?" asked Toyohime.

"If you're looking for Princess Kaguya, she's not here. You should look someplace else."

"Hm? You know… you've just made yourself look very suspicious," said Toyohime. "It wouldn't hurt to have a little look, would it?" She began to step forward menacingly. "Just what are you going to do to stop us?"

"Just wait till my master hears about this," Tewi said as she turned tail and disappeared into the mansion. However, Toyohime hesitated.

"Let's follow her," insisted Yorihime. "The mansion looks big. Maybe that earth rabbit can lead us to where we want."

"A wonderful idea…" Toyohime admitted. She frowned. "However, it seems more guests have arrived."

"Huh…?"

"It looks like Yukari sent her pets after us."

Sure enough, two figures could be seen quickly flying towards the group. One of them was a figure the Lunarians recognized as none other than the Hakurei Shrine maiden, while the other was a girl youkai with horns, undoubtedly an oni. They stopped abruptly upon reaching the front entrance of Eientei, face to face with the Lunarians.

"Ah, look at all these people," exclaimed Suika. "I knew it! It's going to be a fun party after all."

"Good, we're not too late." Reimu said as she landed on all fours, panting. "All right, are you ready to be taken down?"

"I'm sorry, Mistress, but please explain again why you've decided to stay!" demanded Eirin Yagokoro.

The Lunarian doctor, along with her moon rabbit servant, was standing in a hallway. Before them was a transparent sliding door, through which Kaguya could be seen.

"There's no use running forever," Kaguya replied curtly. "Gensokyo is a tiny, tiny world. There's no place to hide. But in any case, Eirin… Haven't we been preparing for this day?"

Reisen Udongein Inaba looked uneasy. "Hm, one of my scouts told me … It's the Watatsuki sisters we're dealing with. I used to be their… pet. There's this relationship between them and me. These people aren't simply just enemies."

Eirin's face quickly paled. "That's right," she agreed quickly. "Awful timing, really. I'm afraid we're not completely ready to face them yet. Maybe we can think this over…"

Eirin thought back to her last encounter with the Watatsuki, back at the Lunar Capital. Hundreds of years had passed, and memories were blurry. She had been their respected mentor, being the sage of the lunar capital. But everything changed on that fateful day, when she, along with Kaguya, committed the crime. Knowing the Watatsuki sisters, Eirin could very well guess that they were in no place to forgive them.

"Well, I don't think you have a choice," Kaguya said stubbornly. "Eirin?" She extended her hand through the transparent door.

"I really don't have a choice, do I?" sighed Eirin as she took it and stepped into the expanse of Kaguya's hidden realm. Then she looked back. "Udonge…"

The lunar rabbit jumped.

"Calm down, Udonge. You won't win. Look, now you don't have to worry about whether or not you're going to lose, right? The mistress and I need some time to prepare. Just stall them as much as you can."

"G-Got it!"

Watatsuki no Yorihime held her sword at the ready, protected by the moon rabbit army that had shrunken to about half its original size.

"Hey, hey! That was an awful insult!" cried Suika. "Just one of you is enough for us? You can't just decide like that."

Watatsuki no Toyohime had ended up marching into the mansion and had taken along her share of the moon rabbit army.

"My, is this the best Yukari can do?" smirked Yorihime. "But still, I better make this quick…" She raised her sword and pointed it at the two. "Attack them!"

"Yes, ma'am!" The rabbits fired their rifles, and giant bullets glided at their opponents.

Without hesitation, Reimu pulled out a spell card. "Light Spirit 'Divine Orbs!'" She raised her gohei. From it emerged balls glowing with multiple colors. They started to descend and accelerate towards the moon army.

"Gather Sign 'Throwing Mt. Togakushi!'"

"…Huh?" Reimu's bullets disappeared as Suika's spell aura swept across the battlefield.

Suika gathered energy in her palms and made a pushing motion at the Lunarian. "Let's… partyyy!" The bullets took the form of rocks, in all shapes and sizes. Hurled full speed at the Lunarians, the attack canceled out the moon rabbits' bullets.

Yorihime leapt into the air and, using her reflexes, weaved through the attack. The rabbits cowered and flinched as they were pelted by rocks and boulders. "I see. I'm going to have to do this myself," grumbled the Lunarian as she landed.

Reimu gave a cold stare to Suika. "Hey. Good of you to disrupt my spell," she seethed.

"Haha, oops!" said Suika. "I forgot. Only a certain amount of energy can be summoned at a given time." She happily pointed. "Look, she's coming!"

Yorihime was gliding at full speed, her sword drawn, drowning out their discussion with her battle-cry.

"Haah!" With a stamp, the oni sent a massive shockwave at the charging opponent. A few nearby trees were uprooted, and a large crack appeared on the ground.

The Lunarian paused and swung once.

The look on Suika's eyes spelled terror. "You… You can't do that!"

Yorihime gave a smirk in response. "Did you really expect to win through physical strength?" Then, she clasped her hands together, preparing a spell. "Fine, then. Let's see if you can match this. O god of lightning, Raijin (*)!"

Something emerged above Yorihime. It was big enough to cast a shadow over Suika.

"Show them the meaning of true strength!"

"Ooh, hey, you look like an oni!" Suika said excitedly, looking up. The god was indeed an oni, though he looked much brawnier than Suika. Before him was a traditional drum.

"Have you come to fight me? I'm ready when you are!" Without hesitating, Suika jumped up and launched herself at the god, her fists clenched.

The oni god noticed the figure coming at him. He raised one finger and pointed.

Reimu turned away and covered her ears for a second. When she looked back, Suika was lying at her feet, covered with burns, still twitching slightly in a fit of giggles. The shrine maiden sighed. "See? If you had listened carefully, you would have known it was a lightning god."

The sound of slow footsteps gradually became louder, and the next thing Reimu saw was a pair of feet in sandals, darkened by a shadow. Yorihime now stood directly in front of her, frowning. Her sword was inches from Reimu's face.

"Hai, hai. We surrender."

*Gosannen War was a 3-year war fought during the Heian period, between competing warrior clans in northern Japan. Kiyohara no Iehara, whose spirit was invoked by Yorihime, was known for defending a siege during that war. I know Yorihime's power was to summon the power of gods, but I guess spirits of people who once existed can be thought of as kami, right?

*Raijin is the god of lightning, obviously. He beats drums to create lightning, thank you Wikipedia. And whaddaya know? Sometimes, he's depicted as being an oni.

A/N: Sorry for the late update… Something came up over the New Year, regarding school. In any case, this entire chapter, or story for that matter, can definitely be written better. That's just my opinion.

Oh, and the Touhou Seimoe 2011 competition's drawing to a close! Semifinals happening right now. Get excited…
