Discaimer: That's a nice boat you have there, god! Touhou belongs to Zun.
A/N and now the time line has come for girls to meet up! A daring rescue, perhaps without the 'daring' part, of our favorite Tengu, Momi- I mean, Hata- Aya! I meant Aya! Honestly, who else could I mean, ehehe... On with the show!
Sunset, Moriya Shrine, Wriggle's PoV:
"I'm so glad you're fine!" Shouted the crying war god with great relief, even if it was brought about by a lie.
"H-how about you get started on dinner, 'Sanae?' You've... been out all day and I'm sure you are just as hungry as we are." Stated the curse god, who held her tears back. Constantly reminding herself of her missing descendant wasn't helping with this in the least. In fact, she would have to do her best to find a way to sneak Aya out, as she seemed to be on important business of the incident kind. At that moment, the smaller god's eyes locked with mine, and I froze in fear. Her eyes lit up with a plan, and undid all her binding mud that had hardened on Aya's mouth, and wings. While locking eyes with Aya, she motioned to me, with her head, while Kanako wasn't looking. Before Aya had a chance to look towards me, she was pulled away by Kanako, towards to kitchen.
"So what's the plan, bug?" Asked Mokou, who wasn't even looking around the corner. I guess here hair isn't particularly stealthy, so that makes sense. We could talk our way through this, but the gods seem to have gone mad... Why else would would they dress Aya up as a shrine maiden? Attacking not just one god, but two seemed out of the question... I guess stealth is our only option!
"I guess stealth is the only option, the gods have gone insane from the look of things. They dressed her up as a shrine maiden, and seem to be acting like they would with Sanae." I replied, in a hushed voice. However, it would seem that one of the gods might be on on our side.
"Hmm... alright, I'll wait here. You go." Stated the bored Mokou. If she wasn't going to knock heads together, she would only get in the way. I sighed, knowing that she had a point. Her hair was practically luminous in the light.
"What, why?" I asked, with a hint of panic in my eye. Mokou simply pointed to her long, and very noticeable hair.
I began to sneak into the house, while not flying, as that could alert them to the magical signature. First, I had to find where they're taking her, and she has to be alone. After that, we need to sneak out together. I heard foot steps approaching, so I scurried up the wall, and hoped nobody noticed me on the ceiling. No, I'm not a roach, stop thinking that. From the next room, the smaller god walked into the room, and immediatly noticed me. She stared at my horrible hiding spot, as well as not help but feel slightly impressed that I even could hide like that.
"...Did you actualy think that you could hide up there? Your cape is hanging down..." Stated the god, who was pinching the bridge of her nose. It would seem that I was lucky to have been found by the sane one!
"Err... ehehe... Y-yes?" I meekly responded, which was answered with a sigh.
"Anyway, hide in that closet over there. I'll sneak away Aya, who I assume is why you're here, when I see an opening, Alright?" Commanded the god, whose hat was looking at me hungrily. What a scary hat...
"A-alright." I said, before scurrying into the closet, still on the ceiling. The god simply stared at the show I was putting on, while trying her best not to laugh. Once she had regained her composure, Suwako walked back to the kitchen, and I heard a large metalic smack. Moments later, the door to the closet opened, and the goddess, along with Sana- I mean Aya, were looking at me. The goddess motioned to me that it was okay to exit, now.
Moments later, Mokou charged in, probobly thinking I had been captured due to the sound of Suwako hitting Kanako over the head with a wok. Fire was burning in her hands, but the lack of any struggle, or even angry looks, made her realise that nothing was wrong.
"...Why's the Immortal here?" Asked Aya and Suwako in unison, neither had expected to see the girl at all.
"People are missing. Looking for 'em, too." Stated Mokou, brushing off the question rather deftly.
"A-ahh... I met her in the bamboo forest, and she agreed to help look for the culprit." I explained, which cleared the confusion that still hung in the air like a white fog. Wait, what's with the white fog?
All across the land, a White fog was beginning to flow out. All the plants across gensokyo began to mutate into abstract parodies of their formor selfs. Grass turned to jagged blades, trees bent at odd angle and turned a random color, and even the dirt, which wasn't even a plant, took on a glassy color.
"What the hell?" Was asked by Mokou, while everyone else simply gaped at the sudden change in the land.
"What... What's going on?" I asked, to nobody at all, while looking about rather terrified.
"Well... it would seem you three have work to do!" Stated the god, before shooing us off. An awkward smile hung on her face.
"So... where next?" Asked the immortal, while looking to myself. How she stayed calm was beyond me, but she did.
"I guess... it would be a good time to check on my friends. We all normaly gather at about this time, so it would save time to not have to look for them indevidualy.
"So... Cirno's house?" Asked Aya, stateing the obvious to all but the albino in out midst, who actualy didn't know.
"Yeah, you think you could get us there quickly Aya?" I asked the Tengu, who was still dressed as Sanae. The bird simply grabbed us both by the arm, and took of with a grin. I hadn't even had to ask, realy. The whole way there I was screaming, but couldn't be heard, while Mokou looked bored, yet her cheeks flapped in the wind. We arrived in just under five minutes, to a smell that signified cooking, which came from the house. It would seem that my plan to find out if everyone is okay might pay off after all! ...Wait, is the house made of giant playing cards? ...This incident keeps getting stranger and str- Youkai mountain looks like it's made ice cream, now. I'm just going to stop looking at things now! ...Why is the scarlet devil mansion a giant gingerbread house? This day just keeps getting stranger and stranger still. I push open the door to Cirno's... card house, ready to greet everybody.
