A/N: The final boss shows herself, but what of the rest of the team? What might have happened to them? And why does my arm know so much...? Also, expect a very strange one shot cross-over some day. On with the show!
Mid-day, Unknown location:
"To think, a pair of fairies were the ones to have survive this long! I don't know how you aren't with the rest, but I aim to fix that!" Wait, survived? Did that voice...
"What have you done with our friends!" Both myself Cirno and myself demanded at once.
"Ohh, wouldn't you like to know... Nothing much, a little stabby stabby, but they will be fine! ...That is, if you can defeat me!" The voice in the dark no longer had the once bored tone, and sounded truely malicious.
Without warning, A figure apeared before me, its green eyes blazing with energy. A flash of steel cut off into my stomach, before the unknown woman retreated back to the devouring darkness. Blood spilled from the deep knife wound, before it froze itself shut, but the internal damage remained. I fell into the darkness, hacking up blood. This wouldn't be the end for me, but I doubt I would be able to help Cirno in the fight, now.
"Bastard!" My master began to growl in anger, before charging at the last known location of the voice. With blade in hand, she swung wildly at the darkness. After her fifth swing, Cirno saw the glint of steel from the corner of her eye, and parried the blade.
"Ohh? Not as weak as that other fairy, are we? You've got a bit of muscle, for a fairy!" Once more her eyes began to cast an eerie glow, and a hardly visable grin was illuminated by her eyes. Her eyes flickered, and a candle lit with the same intense green flame, before one after another, candles across the room began to lit. The room was now cast in the dim flicker of the green fire. However, the green eyed creature was gone.
"Show yourself, monster!" Cirno looked about franticly, not liking that she had no idea where her foe was.
The room was huge, and nothing like the mansion we were just in, or the odd space-like expanse we had arived here from. On the walls were thousands, upon thousands of charms. the entire room was made of a glassy black material, and the ceiling was pointlessly high. I had fallen a bit of a ways, due to the fact that we were almost at the ceiling of the room, about a 20 meter drop.
Due to internal bleeding, my conciousness was beginning to ebb away, even if the wound looked healed on the outside.
"Hey..."I didn't respond.
"Wakie wakie!"The silence continued.
"Not waking up?"My eye lids twitched some, but still I did not move. Growing fed up, the smoky white hand began to move on its own, slapping my rear with more force than I would be able to muster normally.
"Hgaa!" I jumped up, and began to rub my bottom, which was now stinging like crazy. What kind of sadist wakes people up that way...?
"Good, you're awake! Now, lets go and expose the location of that nasty little spirit, shall we? You didn't have to wake me up in such a way... What was that? N-nothing!" The voice of the arm, which now actually had a voice, wasn't nearly as nice as before.
Listnening to my arm, I began to fly back up towards Cirno. The arm soon got fed up with my speed, and began to fly for me, at a still rather slow pace, but it was twice my speed.
"Usa, you're okay!" My master seemed glad to see me looking as well as I did, but I seriously doubted that I could stand a chance at helping her fight that creature.
"Y-yeah... Though my insides still hurt, but my arm seems to have a plan! Quite. Now, repeat after me:I need you to make the room as cold as you can, or else my plan wont work, got it, Cirno?" Cirno simply nodded, having been at a loss for what to do at this point. Cirno's wings began to glow dimly, and all around to room ice began to form on everything. The room had been rather hot, and humid, you see. One by one, the lightly water saturated seals on the walls began to freeze over, and crack. While having no way to directly touch a seal, a non-human could still destroy them indirectly. Once the final seal on the wall began to freeze over, my foggy arm began to turn to flesh.
"Ehh? Ahh, that's much better... Hey, I'm going to borrow your body for a bit.Wait, wha-" My eyes began to go from blue, to a violently burning red. My hair, from white, to green.
"Ahh, Free of that damn seal, at last! W-what? Why can't I move...?" We had traded places. What was once my body, was mine no more.
"...Usa...?" Cirno looked to me with a confused look, which I answered with a grin. Why was I grinning?
"She's in here, but I'm not her! Anyways, we have more pressing matters. Firstly, we need to locate said irritating evil spirit. Wh-what am I saying...? Shush, Usagi. Now, where, ohh where, has Mima gone..." I didn't want her to get away now did I? Not before I beat her incorporeal ass into the ground, for what she had done. ...Wait, what am I thinking?
"What did you do to U-!" Before Cirno could finish the question, I had placed a finger upon her lips. I didn't want any annoyances right now. What? Cirno isn't annoying! She's nice and I l-l... She's nice!
"Hush, child. Do you want to catch the one who hurt your friends, or don't you?" Cirno stopped trying to stop me, when this point was brought up. So easily manipulated... ...Could it be that I'm hearing the arm's thoughts?
I began to release some fog into the air, that I had chilled with this interesting power over ice. It wasn't much harder than making a flower bloom, honestly. ...
In the air, a small area in the fog began to frost over. Jackpot!
"Lets see how you like fighting me fair, and square!" I gathered what little energy the fairy had within her, and unleashed my signature spell, although modified to work with the fairy.
"Ice Spark!" It was far less impressive than my own master spark, but It would do the job. A laser that made not heat, but incredible levels of cold. For such a small creature, fairies sure did have some power in them, even if its wasted on them.
From my hands tore forth a thick laser, intent on hitting the suspicious ball of frosted over nothing. Just as I suspected, out popped the annoying spirit, just in time to dodge the laser.
"You... How did you get free!" The Evil spirit, who was dressed in a robe of fine blue silk, with a mustard yellow bow on the top of her substantial bust. On her shoulders, a blue cape with white trim, which was held on by the afore mentioned bow. Her long green hair wasn't shiny, and infact looked like what you would expect of a corpse, however, her blazing green eyes countered the look of her hair. In her left hand, a blue staff, with a golden moon mounted on the end. Her left was simply occupied by a knife that simply oozed with a sense of evil. From the bottom of her robe, was a ghostly tail, where her legs should have been. Resting on the top of her head, was a blue cone hat, a golden sun upon the front
"My, my, Wouldn't you like to know? I'd say I have a bone to pick with you, but you have none left... Let us see whatthere is left to rip out of you, shall we?" A twisted grin spread across my cheeks. I had been far too long since the last time we had fought. ...Just who was this person that had stolen my body? She sounds so cruel!
