Yuu/N: Jeez... I'm getting a bit restless, so maybe... maybe I should make a new friend!
A/N: ...What sort of 'friend'?
Yuu/N: Ahh, You'll do! Right this way, little one...
A/N: A-ahh, I'd rather n-
Yuu/N: Ohh, but I insist. I do treat my friends well, if only so that I needn't find another.
Late night, Hakurei Shrine, Reimu's PoV:
After the troublesome flight home,with my stomach full of something other than fear for once, I began to get ready for bed.
Wait, I just realised, I'm hardly tired at all... Must be 'cause I'm a Shrine Maiden! I mean, why else might that be?
"Welcome home, Reimu." Yukari had been watching me through a gap, wondering if I'd ever notice her.
"Ugh... What do you want?" I glared at her, and reached for my gohei; Yukari only ever seems to leave if I use eccessive force, so it's good to have it handy.
"Hmm, hmm, hmm... It seems like only yesterday you came of age, and now you're... exactly the same as before, actually." Well, yeah! It's all that holy power, I'm sure!
"Yeah, and?" I wish she would get to the point, as I knew she had one.
"Hmm... Havn't you... ever wondered why you havn't aged a day since you were sixteen?" That's easy!
"It's because I'm full of so much holy energy, isn't it?" I puffed out my chest, proud of my reasoning skills.
"...Is that your final answer?" Yukari looked at me from behind her fan with amused eyes; had I been able to see through said fan, I'd know that she was biting her lip rather hard, so as to keep from laughing at how stupid of a reason I had come up with.
"Obviously." I continued my usual grumpy glare with my arms now crossed under my slight chest.
"And, tell me, where have you been getting your food for the last year or so?" 'Last year or so'? That's another easy answer!
"I've been chasing down Youkai shouting that I'll exorcise them, as their fear is quite filling, save for the times I can get my hands on real food." I began to grin, drolling just a bit due to being reminded of the feast I was given tonight.
"...And you think nothing odd of that? Just chock it up to your great deal of holy energies...?" Yukari sighed, knowing my answer already.
"Yeah, of course!" I smiled at the reminder of there being few stronger than me.
"And what of that restless feel in your heart, on this full moon?" Ohh? It's a full moon? I wasn't aware...
"Well, that's... I'm not sure..." Why is that?
"Would you like the answer? You may wish to sit down if you wish to hear it." Yukari gave a smile, one that seemed without alterior motives for once. I sat down on my futon, not giving an answer.
"I'll take that as a 'Yes Yukari, I've gone mute, so please tell me!" Yukari giggled to herself a moment, before continuing. "You are my daughter, Reimu." I rose a brow at that.
"Well, yeah, you already told me you raised me, a few years back..." Yukari chuckled for a moment, before composing herself.
"No, I mean you are my actual daughter, Reimu." Yukari gave me time to absorb this.
...What? She's joking, right? I'm... I'm a related to Yukari? I'm closely related to the person I was molested by years ago? !
"And you did those... th-things to me, anyways? !" I had other reasons to be angry, but this was the most pressing of matters.
"Ahh... Yes, that was a mistake. You are the spitting image of your... father? I don't really know how to call that, as it's a she, I believe. Anyways, I found myself pregnant one day, out of the blue, after the last of the Hakurei died out... Normally there would have been cracking skies, as there was when the last of the Hakurei died out for the first time, 117 years ago, but divine intervention once more kicked in." Yukari's expression was that of sadness, remembering that horrible scene. The Hakurei shrine was covered in blood, as the acting Shrine Maiden, her husband, and their daughter, had all been mutilated by a cowardly Youkai.
"...I was born of a god? !" Answer one thing, and a far more pressing question arises from the answer.
"Yes, I do think so. ...That, or I somehow bent reality with my border manipulation, but I would be able to tell if I did that, unless I bent that, too." Yukari smiled, obviously happy to finally get these secrets out in the open.
"...Why do we look nothing alike?" If what she said was true, and my gut was saying that it was, why is that?
"Ahh, that was easy enough; I simply manipulated the border between Holy and Youki, and turned what was a holy power filled Youkai, into a very holy power filled human." Wait, so I... am human?
"But..." Yukari put a finger to my lip, showing that she would answer that question.
"The manipulation is simply wearing off, and once it has, you will truely be a Youkai... I actually came by to watch over you, as it should be about to happen!" Yukari grinned, and looked through a gap so that she could see the one, and only, clock tower in all of Gensokyo. "Now." Both hands struck 12, signifying midnight, and with it, the loss of my humanity.
"Ugh...!" I doubled over, suddenly in a great deal of pain. The conversion of Youki to Holy was a rather simple one, but... the reverse was quite excruciating.
While I was crying out in pain, Yukari was sitting on one of her gaps, busy watching the show with great interest, while pushing her motherly instints to the back of her head, just as she had for all these years. She had never seen the Border of Holy and Youki switch in this direction in all of her many years, and she had been around the block a few hundred times, so that's saying something.
While Youkai may have a few oddities to them, they still feel love for their children just as much as humans do, so she could only take so much before having to put an end to the pain her child was in.
"Quit being such a cry-baby, and I'll fix you..." Yukari masked her love with rather cruel words, before flipping the Border of Pleasure and Pain in Reimu. Needless to say, the results were quite interesting.
"Ahh... ahhh...! Mmm...!" Reimu's howls of pain quickly turned into ecstacy filled writing, and a great deal of moaning.
"Now, lets wait for the change to finish~! I'm sure it'll only take around an hour or so..." Yukari giggled to herself, while a bag of popcorn was produced from a gap, and a video camera from another; it's good to catch these sorts of embarassing moments, so that you can bring back those memories at another date, right?
Plus, one can never have enough blackmail material.
Ahh, these next few millenia would be grand, Yukari could tell this from the past 15 years alone!
