Cirno flew through the skies at record-breaking speeds. Arriving outside the Kirisame Household in moments.

She spotted Amelia wondering around outside. Amelia had been to the bathroom and now was wandering outside, while Marisa and Alice were chatting.

"Hey, Amelia!"

Amelia looked over and smiled as soon as her eyes locked onto Cirno. "Hi!" She said back - Walking over and standing in front of her.

As they stood there - Cirno had a distinct feeling she was being watched... But what was watching them?

Cirno started to float upwards into the sky.

Amelia Kirisame looked into the sky as Cirno floated up. Her eyes narrowing as Cirno was... Teasing her again.

"Ehehehe! Catch me! If you can..." Cirno grinned.

Amelia's eyes seemed to glaze over as she started to hover off the ground. "..."

Cirno gulped as she sensed a HUGE amount of magical power coming off of Amelia - She was a child born of a powerful magician but... Wait...

Cirno looked around rapidly. "Didn't they say you were born out of black-" She felt her neck get crushed almost as she felt a hand over it, "H-Hey! ACK!"

Amelia had crossed the gaps between them in record time and grabbed the ice fairy. Something was controlling her... But what was it?

Was it the Black Magic? Something else?

Cirno tried to get out of Amelia's hold but was struggling... Badly. "What... What in the whole of Gensokyo are you doing!?" Cirno managed to choke out.

Amelia had no control over her body as she kicked Cirno in the stomach and pushed her forwards - Winding the Ice Fairy and causing Cirno to go crashing to the ground beneath her.

Marisa Kirisame had no knowledge of what was going on outside, but, she yawned a few times.

Alice Margatroid tilted her head at her. "...Are you feeling okay, Mari?"

Marisa nodded. "Yeah, I 'unno why ye'd think of th-" She yawned again.

Alice put a hand to Marisa's forehead and blinked. "You're burning up!" She exclaimed as Marisa closed her eyes.

"Mmmmm..." was about all Marisa could get out as she struggled to stay up.

Alice then sensed an overwhelming amount of magical energy flowing from Marisa straight outside - She instantly got to the window and her eyes widened. "Marisa! You have to get outside! It's about Amelia!"

Marisa looked like she tried to move quickly, and honestly, she did. She tried to get up but fell to the floor in a crumpled heap. The amount of magical energy she was losing was considerable.

Alice looked between Marisa and Amelia. Then... She made the connection - Amelia's magical energy was solely coming from Marisa herself. Every movement Amelia did, Marisa would lose. Every time Marisa breathed in, Amelia breathed in. Every time Amelia breathed out, Marisa also did.

She looked to the door and raced to it. She had to find Reimu or Patchouli... AND FAST.

Amelia closed her eyes and magic was flowing to her. So much in fact that she nearly started to wobble in the air.

Cirno looked up from the floor and scrambled to her feet. "What the heck!?"

Daiyousei and Reimu had been talking a small amount before Reimu sensed the enormous amount of magical energy building near the Forest of Magic. "Daiyousei, get Patchouli or Remillia. We'll need her."

Daiyousei nodded and flew off at high speed after sensing the same thing Reimu had.

Reimu got out her staff and headed towards the sight of enormous energy...

Yukari Yakumo looked to the Kirisame household as she had arrived a few hundred meters away. Spotting Alice leaving the household and heading for the Scarlet Devil Mansion.

"Hmmm..." Yukari hummed and headed to the sight of the magical presence that was building. It was like Marisa's magic mixing with someone else's... Perhaps the Black Magic Child?

Marisa lifted her head and managed to get to a seating position. "Owwww... Da'Ze." She moaned as she felt a huge headache hit her. "Owww..." She slowly got to her feet and then had to grab the side to prevent herself from falling again.

'Why is my magic doing this...' She thought to herself as she barely managed to stay standing.

Little did she know, Yukari and Cirno were about to witness extremely powerful magic...
