Third Person POV

BGM: Gothic Storm - DRAGONS LAND

There was a land in Japan that was very desolate that was deserted and felt very isolated from the rest of the country. The only defining feature of the region was the enormous mountain, bamboo forest, and village in the region. There however, wasn't anything else which are the forests, rivers, and other flora in the region.

The only humans living in the village are one of the few inhabitants living in the region. However the village isn't well known outside of the land, and because of this, the place is remotely isolated from the rest of Japan. However they aren't the only residents living here...

For these other residents are the feared and supernatural creatures known as youkai. These beings originally used this area of Japan as a staging ground to terrorize the rest of the nation for a while. Now it is used as a safe haven for them so as to survive in a technological and advanced world.

Which brings us to where we're at now.

Everything is as normal as it can be in the region. The village of humans is trying its best to go about their normal routines, and defend against the wild youkai who are prowling the lands to eat and kill any humans they find.

Suddenly everyone heard a thunderous roar as they all turned their heads in awe to see something absolutely terrifying, but magnificent. A dragon that is 600 meters long was high above them, its royal blue scales shined brightly in the sunlight contrasting with the dark blue underbelly. Its gigantic wings were so big that it would be as big or even bigger than the tallest building in the world. Its blue eyes looked down upon both the humans and the youkai in the region.

[With a bit of my breath this land will become fertile.] The dragon then let out a huge breath as it literally breathed life into the desolate landscape. Grass, flowers, and other fauna started to sprout from the rough ground.

[With my scales water flows.] Several of the Dragon's scales detached themselves from it and started to head to the surface. Some of its scales landed into the soil of this fertile and from them water started to come out forming the rivers that flow throughout the land. Multiple scales gathered up in one spot and formed a lake that would later be Misty Lake. At the youkai mountain the tengu, kappa, and oni witnessed the formation of the large waterfalls that will be part of the mountain.

[With my strength rises the mountains, and hills.] The dragon's tail smacked the ground as multiple earthquakes started to occur and shake the ground throughout the land. Several small hills and large mountains rose up from the ground.

[And with a flap of my wings the weather is formed.] The gigantic wings flapped hugely and a huge gust of wind was formed and then clouds started to form throughout the land.

[And thus Gensokyo is born…] The dragon let out a huge roar that shaked the earth and everyone felt its power.

"Ara ara, Dragon-san you don't have to be so overdramatic." A voice said to it. The Dragon turned its head and saw four individuals.

The first individual was a woman with red eyes along with shoulder-length pink hair with Chinese-styled buns. Her right arm for whatever reason was wrapped up in bandages, and a shackle lays on her left wrist. She wore a green skirt, and a white top over which is a maroon tabard with a thorny vine motif and large rose-shaped ornament just below collar level.

The second individual was another woman with long, blonde hair and yellow eyes. She wears a yellow tabard adorned with a constellation pattern of stars representing the Big Dipper. She wears a green skirt and black boots, and on her head is a three-point hat. This woman was currently sitting on a throne, and behind, which are green, pink, blue, and orange colored flames emerging.

The third individual was yet another woman with long purple black hair, and pitch black eyes with white purple irises in the middle of them. She was wearing a dark purple cloak with a hood that has some runes on it. The cloak was opening revealing a lavender colored European styled tabard with some complex and intricate black hole motifs on also seems to be a lilac colored hair band on her head with an indigo colored bow on the right of the band. Four void-like wings jut from behind her.

The fourth and final individual was the speaker, who talked to the dragon. She has dark golden eyes and long blonde hair on top which is a pale pink mob cap with a thin red ribbon and smaller ribbons tied liberally on her accessories and the tips of her hair. She wears a purple Chinese-style tabard with various Trigrams over a pale pink Western-style dress. She was currently sitting on a gap with an uncountable amount of eyes peering through the tear while holding a pink lace parasol in one hand and a paper fan in the other.

"You all know what must be done?" The Dragon said to the four of them.

"Indeed, we do." The speaker said as she folded her fan and placed it on the gap that she was sitting. While this was going on the other three individuals were nodding their heads in agreement. "We all do."

"I, Kasen Ibaraki…"

"Okina Matara…"

"Kyomu Burakkuabisu…"

"And, Yukari Yakumo…"

"Swear on this day that WE, the Sages of Gensokyo that WE will keep balance in this land of illusions and pledge ourselves to eternal peace, with you almighty, DRAGON GOD!" Yukari, Okina, Kyomu, and Kasen shouted in unison as dark clouds started to form above them and thunder was heard above.

[Good…] The Dragon said as lightning struck the four sages. Despite being hit by multiple lightning from the sky, they were unharmed, because it was doing something else. A few seconds later it stopped revealing the aftermath of what happened. There on each of the necks of the sages is a small tattoo on them that resembles a dragon's eye.

[The sigil on your necks symbolize our oath between us. It isn't unseeable to everyone, but me and you girls.] The sigils on Yukari, Okina, Kyomu, and Kasen's neck disappeared.[But if any of you four decide to break this oath with me…]

The wind around them started to rapidly pick up speed, and the clouds overhead flashed thunder like crazy. An intense amount of killing intent was released from the Dragon God, but luckily was contained with a massive barrier surrounding Gensokyo. [I'LL HUNT YOU DOWN AND TEAR YOU LIMB FROM LIMB! DO YOU FOUR UNDERSTAND!]

"Y-YES, DRAGON-SAN!" The four sages shouted out quickly in absolute fear, and shaking a bit from the enormous amounts of killing intent.

[Excellent…] The dark clouds overhead dissipated revealing the bright sunlight above. Just as quickly as it appeared the large amounts of killing intent disappeared. [My work here is finished, Gensokyo is created, it's time to take my leave…]

"Wait where are you going, Dragon-san?" Okina asked the Dragon God.

[My work here is done, all that is left is the barrier that will protect Gensokyo from the Outside World.] The Dragon God said. [Luckily the barrier I have created will be that barrier, but it is incomplete as of now…]

"That's where me and Hakurei come in." Yukari interjected confidently.

[As Yukari mentioned here, she and the Hakurei shrine maiden will help finalize and seal Gensokyo from the Outside World.] The Dragon stated. [I'll leave Gensokyo to you four to maintain the stability and balance of the land of illusions.]

The Dragon God then faced itself to the residents of Gensokyo, both youkai and humans. [Fear not residents of Gensokyo for while I may be gone, I'll still protect this land with my life, and I will return in the FUTURE!]

A humongous portal formed in the center of Gensokyo as the rest of the Dragon's body entered it first the head, next the torso, and finally the tail. Afterwards the portal collapsed in on itself, and made an explosion so large that it was seen by everyone.

The sages of Gensokyo looked at each other and had a silent conversation, then set off to uphold their responsibilities of maintaining the stability and peace of this untouched land.

For Yukari she used her gap to travel to the Hakurei Shrine to strengthen the barrier surrounding Gensokyo alongside Hakurei. The gap youkai and shrine maiden managed to succeed in finalizing the barrier that will seal off the land of illusions from the Outside World.

For Okina she traveled to her dimension the Land of the Backdoors by using a backdoor. She did so, because in her realm, she will be able to manage and guide the four seasons of Gensokyo: Spring, Summer, Fall, and Winter.

For Kasen she flew to Youkai Mountain to go and govern over the tengu, and kappa along with her fellow Devas of the mountain. They made sure that there were no conflicts between the youkai of the mountain and the occupied village of humans in Gensokyo

For Kyomu, she went outside of Gensokyo and started erasing prior information of the land of illusions off of the books and minds of those outside. The void god was absolutely relentless in her search to delete everything related to the land of illusions in the Outside World.

BGM: Touhou 15.5 - Shinkirou Theatrical (Human Village)

In Present Time...

"-And so in honor of the Dragon God's creation of Gensokyo. The humans in the Human Village built a statue dedicated to it here." The history teacher said to her class.

The history teacher has brown eyes and long silver hair with blue highlights. She wears a hat that resembles a building with a red ribbon on top and glyphs inscribed along its side. Her dress is dark blue with white short sleeves, and a red ribbon is tied to the bottom of the collar.

"So does anyone here have any questions?" The history teacher asked.

One of the students raised their hand. "Yes, Botan?"

"Um, Keine-sensei, do you know where the Dragon God could be at?" The student asked the teacher."

"Good question, Botan." Keine remarked to him. "But no I don't know where the Dragon might be, but I do know that it's still being active to this day."

Keine then looked at the clock in the room and saw what time it was. It was 2:40 p.m.

"Well, class looks like it's time for all you to go home, you're all dismissed." Keine said as the rest of the class cheerfully went out the door.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Fifteen minutes later…

Keine was seen strolling down the streets of the Human Village. She was going back to her home in the village.

"Hello, Keine-san." A voice said to the history teacher. She turned her head and saw a man.

This man has azure colored hair and blue eyes. Another thing to note about the man is that he's wearing a navy blue kimono as well. "Oh, hello Ryūjin."

"So, what have you been doing lately Keine?" Ryūjin with a smile on his face.

"Oh, nothing much, I was just teaching the children a history lesson." Keine responded.

"Oh, what were you teaching about?"

"Well, I was teaching them about the creation of Gensokyo." Keine said. "And also about the Dragon God as well."

"Oh…" Ryūjin said with a thoughtful look on his face. "Keine. Do you believe that the Dragon God will return to Gensokyo?"

'Why would he ask me that question.' Keine thought to herself. "Yes I do know it might return one day, but just not right now."

"Hmmm…" Ryūjin continued on before saying. "Good answer."

"Why would you ask me that question?" Keine said, voicing her curiosity.

"Oh, no reason, just wanted to ask you a simple question, that's all."

"Okay?"

"Anyways why are you here walking about Ryūjin?" Keine asked the man.

"Well, I was going to go get some for me and my wife, right now." Ryūjin answered.

"Oh, is that all." Keine said to him. "Well I'm going to go back home, now."

"See you later, Keine." The history teacher started to walk back to her home. If she were to turn her head back to Ryūjin she could have seen the satisfied smile on his face…


A/n: If you're wondering why I described Kyomu's appearance again, it is because I want to add a bit of drama to this story, since this is the creation of Gensokyo. I also did so, so as to remind everyone what Kyomu looked like (if they have forgotten that is).

Also can I point out this story is (arguably) the only Touhou story where Okina Matara actually appears physically without being mentioned. So there's also that.
