The Cursed Guitar! To Save Ui! Into Brane's World (Nodoka's Arc)
Chapter 45: The Very First Pet Show! (Feat. Azusa Nakano as The Pet)
(Takes place after the events from the end of Azusa's arc)
"Wonder what he's laughing about?" Mari pondered on it.
"Who knows. At least we delivered Brane's message. Or else we would've been punished." Silica said.
"Got that right sister." Sherry said and continued eating.
"Azusa is still going to starve yes?" Mari asked Aina.
"Right. She will have food tomorrow morning." Aina responded.
"And we will make it for her." Ui said and smirked. "With special ingredients." As the girls and minions laugh, Azusa was being cleaned by two minions. Azusa opened her eyes and saw them. They just finished cleaning her as Azusa spoke to them, asking for food.
"No. Brane said you will starve tonight. No food until tomorrow morning." Said the minion. Azusa begged it to give her something. "NO! No food!" The minion yelled and left with the other one. What would Azusa do now? The next day cam as the purple sun rose. It was about 11 in the morning, Mari, Silica, Sherry, Aina and Ui got to work on breakfast. Brane was still sleeping. The minions were cleaning the castle. One minion cleaned Brane's crown and throne chair.
"Good as new." The minion said and chuckled.
"Is breakfast going well?" A minion asked Ui.
"Yes. It sure is. We'll be making Azusa's after." Ui responded. It was bacon and eggs with sushi rolls and a curry sauce. Azusa was hungry and finally got her food at around 12 PM. Azusa ate it and enjoyed it.
"Glad you like it pet." Ui smiled and pets Azusa's head. Soon Azusa passed out due to the food and Ui removes the chains. Brane was outside and had minions and Mari's Occult Club set up a stage with magic.
"This is going to be great." Brane said and sipped his tea. He was sitting down on his throne he brought with him. "The first ever Pet Show." Brane then chuckles. "Why didn't I think of this sooner!?"
"Master, the stage is almost ready. Azusa has been put in a coma." Aina told him.
"Good. Don't want her to be awake for all of this." Brane said and pulled out a camera.
"And...when it's done...we send it to the Light Music Club." Aina chuckled.
"Yes Aina...yes." Brane smirked and hit record as Azusa was in a chair, locked in. A minion puts her on the stage and lights shine on her. Minions and Mari and her sisters got to their seats with popcorn. A minion solider came up to the stage.
"Welcome everyone, to the first ever Pet Show!" It said and the audience claps.
"Our first trick will be with Mari's Occult Club. Welcome them on stage." The audience clapped as Mari, Silica and Sherry went to the stage. Azusa was placed inside a box.
"Ladies and gentlemen! It is time for the cut in half trick!" Mari bellowed and the crowd cheers. Silica pulled out a saw and gave it to Mari. Mari began to saw Azusa in half. Unlike the original trick...Azusa was gonna be cut in half. Mari began to cut through the box. Blood started to drip down as Mari was laughing and going crazy as she sawed Azusa. Soon the saw went through. Silica and Sherry open the box and Azusa got cut in half from her stomach. She fell down, in a pool of her own blood as the audience clapped.
"Ta-Da!" Mari bowed and Silica and Sherry also bow. Soon Azusa was back to normal, sitting in her chair, locked inside it. Mari and her sisters leave the stage and Aina made her way to the stage. Aina touched Azusa's face and opened her mouth.
"Want to see a balloon go pop?" Aina asked the crowed. They cheered and Brane was chuckling. Aina giggled and placed her hands over Azusa's mouth and began to fire a smoke spell into her body. Soon Azusa's stomach started to expand. The crowd were in awe. Azusa's stomach began to get bigger and bigger. Mari took a picture of it. Soon Azusa's tummy started to bloat and get even bigger. Aina stopped the spell and took out a needle and was gonna pop Azusa's tummy like a balloon. Brane captured all of it on his camera. Aina leaned the needle to Azusa's giant belly. "Here we go." She said and poked Azusa's tummy. Soon it popped and her guts and blood go flying onto the crowd. They were in awe. Brane smile at this. Aina bowed as the minions and Mari's Occult Club clapped. Brane also claps. The lights got out and Azusa was back to normal soon after.
"I wonder what's next." Sherry said to Silica. She couldn't hold in her excitement. Ui was sitting next to Brane, not even smiling, nor clapping. Was this show getting her bit back to her normal self or was she playing it? Ui went up to the stage in her light brown cloak and hoodie. She opened Azusa's mouth had stuck her claw glove inside. She grabbed Azusa's tongue and pulled it out. The crowd cringe at the sound of flesh ripping. Ui threw Azusa's tongue on the floor and stomped on it. She then leaves and sat next to Brane.
"Can we spice things up a bit?" Ui asked angry.
"Sure." Brane smiled and snapped his fingers. Azusa was back to normal, and now awake. She looked around and a minion releases her from her chair. Azusa stood up and the minion gave her a plastic sword to fight with.
"What's going on?" Azusa asked the minion.
"We've been putting on a show." The minion said and formed a shard arm. "Now we must fight." Azusa ducked as the minion struck at her. The other minions were cheering and telling it to cut off Azusa's limbs, or bite her face. Brane looked at Ui.
"Is this better?" He asked her. Ui looked at Brane and smiled.
"Yes master. I want Azusa-chan to feel pain." Ui said with hate in her voice.
"So do I." Brane and Ui chuckle together as they watched the stage. Azusa tried to fight back against the minion. Her arm got sliced and she cried out in pain. The minions cheered as Azusa had gotten hurt. She smacks the figure with her plastic sword in the face. The minion chuckled and kicked Azusa in the gut and cuts her face. Mari and her sisters shouted at the minion to slice her up. Azusa tripped and this allowed the figure to cut up Azusa's back. She cried out in pain and bled out, defeated. Azusa stopped moving and was dead. The minion bowed down and the audience clapped for it. The show came to a close it was cleanup time. Azusa got up and was on the grass, looking at everyone. Mari's Occult Club make the stage disappears with a spell. Brane finished recording and takes the tape out of the camera. He then sends it to Pina.
"Make sure you get this to the Light Music Club." Ui said to Pina. It nodded and flew off. Azusa was gonna make a run for it, but a minion stopped her. Brane walked to Azusa and smirked at her. Brane took her left arm and slammed his elbow down right at her elbow, breaking her left arm again. Azusa cried out in pain and Brane punches her in the face. Azusa kept moaning in pain as Brane laughed at her. Pina laid the tape on the table as the widow was open. The tape came with a little note: Play Me. The girls were out for lunch. They decided after that, they go visit Jun Ishimine. They also found The Occult Club and Black Frill during lunch. They decided to travel together to Brane's Castle, once Ishimine was 100% cleared. The girls head back to the rent house with Black Frill and the Occult Club. Yui saw the video tape and read the note.
"What could this be?" She asked the girls.
"Why don't you play it then?" Tiffany said. Yui places the tape inside the tv.
"Who gave us this?" Mio asked.
"I don't know. The note didn't say." Yui shrugged.
"The video is starting." Ritsu said and got closer to the TV. The video began to play. The video went on and the girls were all shocked. They had no words to say as they watched Azusa be treated like a fun act for Brane's sick desires. They saw her tummy explode and when she got sawed in half. The video stopped playing. The girls were all disgusted by the who. The humiliation that Azusa went through, and she didn't even know this happened, since she was put into a coma like state from her breakfast. Azusa was placed back in her chamber. She was crying as Brane had told her about the Pet Show she starred in.
"You're a sick freak! You're a monster!" Azusa cried out at Brane. He simply laughed at her.
"Damn right I'm a monster! That guitar made me this way long ago! And I love it! You Azusa will be my pet forever! Your soul will be trapped here with me. I will force you to play that guitar and when you do...you'll be stuck here forever! Ahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!" Brane cackled and slammed the door and left Azusa in the dark. Brane went to go talk with Mari and her sisters.
"So...you're gonna want us to watch her clean everything tomorrow?" Mari asked Brane.
"Yes. I want her to help around the castle." Brane replied.
"Okay master! We'll make sure she behaves and gets chores done." Silica smiled. Brane chuckled and sat at his throne. He tells Ui about it and she smiled.
"Good idea master." Ui said with a smile.
"Yes. In the morning, she will begin by cleaning my throne and crown. I want you and Mari's sisters to watch her. I will be going on a small trip for a couple of days with Aina. So I want you Ui, in charge till I get back."
"Yes sir. I will make sure the Pet is good." Ui said and smirked. Time went on and Brane got up early for his trip with Aina and his minions. The group headed out right after they had breakfast made by Ui, Mari, Silica and Sherry.
"Bye master! Be safe!" Mari called out as Brane got on a shadow horse and Aina did as well. Brane waved goodbye and told Ui and Mari's Occult Club to be good and make Azusa do work. After they left, Ui took Azusa out of the chamber and into the castle. Mari had a bucket of water and Silica and soap and Sherry had the rag.
"You are to clean the entire castle under Brane's orders. Do you understand pet?" Ui crossed her arms and looked at Azusa. She nodded.
"Good kitty." Mari said and pets Azusa's head. "Now get to work." Azusa got the rag and puts in the soapy water and began to scrub Brane's throne.
"Make sure you get it nice and shiny too." Silica said and pushes the bucket closer to Azusa. Azusa cleans the entire throne chair and Ui inspects it.
"Good. Everything is cleaned here. Now to the crown." Ui smiled and grabbed Brane's crown and held it for Azusa. Azusa puts the rag in the bucket and wrings it first. She then began to wipe the crown of Brane.
"He wants this place spotless before he gets back." Said Sherry.
"Why can't you help?" Azusa asked her. Mari glared at her. Mari slapped her and pulled out a necklace with a red gem. Mari giggled and Azusa looked at the glowing red gem as Mari swung it around.
"You will clean this castle all by yourself. You will clean this castle all by yourself." Mari chanted and soon Azusa got hypnotized. Azusa eyes went red and goes back to cleaning.
"Good idea. Now we don't need to worry about her not doing her chores. Which means..." Silica smiled.
"We can relax." Sherry finished her sentence.
"Right you are my sisters. We can relax." Mari said and stretched her arms out. She summons a rug for her and the others to lay on. They watched Azusa walk around and clean the entire castle. But when she made it to the bathroom to clean, she got out of the hypnosis. It was hard to carry the bucket with one hand, therefore Brane restored her left arm...though he promised her, he would break it again when he returned from his trip. Azusa got an idea. She replaces the bucket water with burning hot water. She fills the bucket up and was gonna dump it on Mari and her sisters. She needed to create a scene.
"I finished the bathroom!" She called out.
"Ah. The Pet has finished Brane's throne room, let's go see her." Mari said and got up with her sisters and made their way to the bathroom. Azusa hid in a bathroom stall as the bathroom was big. Enough for five people.
"Where is the pet?" Sherry asked her sisters.
"I'm right here!" Azusa yelled and throws the water onto the three sisters. They scream as the water burns them. Azusa throws the empty bucket at the girls, knocking them down. Azusa ran out of the bathroom and got a cloak. She puts it on bu Ui stopped. Azusa gasped as Ui removed her cloak, revealing a large knife and a black shard shield in her back. Ui took out the knife and walked to Azusa. Azusa backs away.
"Naughty kitty." Ui smirked and smacks her down. Ui then stomped on Azusa's back. Azusa moaned in pain. Ui pulled Azusa's head back and placed her knife at her neck. Mari and her sisters leave the bathroom.
"THIS LITTLE PUSSY BURNED US!" Mari snapped.
"SHE SHOULD BE TORTURED!" Silica cried out.
"GIVE IT TO HER!" Sherry growled.
"Take her to the torture room!" Ui ordered Mari and her sisters. They nodded and grabbed Azusa and carry her to the basement. Ui giggled and followed them. Azusa got tied up and was going to get whipped again. Mari took a whip out and gave to Ui. "Thank you."
"Ui please! This is not you! Remember your friends!" Azusa pleaded.
"Shut up Azusa!" Ui shouted and whips Azusa's back. Azusa cried out as Ui made the first strike.
"Please! Remember who you are! Remember your sister!"
"I have no sister! Not anymore! I have no one but Brane!" Ui cried out and whips Azusa again and again and again.
"Remember Yui! She loves you and we are going to save you from Brane! This is not where you belong.." Azusa cried. Ui growled and raised her whip...only to hesitate.
"Ui? What are you waiting for?" Mari asked.
"WHIP HER NOW!" Silica roared. Ui's eyes regained their normal color.
"Yui? Big sis?" Ui moaned and held her head and moaned in pain.
"I'll do it then!" Mari said and pushed Ui down and whips Azusa a bunch of times. Ui got back up and stopped Mari.
"STOP IT!" She yelled out at her. Ui's eyes turned back to red and she frees Azusa. Azusa was panting and in tears. "We've done enough." Ui said quietly and walked away. Mari and her Occult Club kick Azusa and walk out. Ui held her head and fell to one knee.
"Ui!? You ok?" Silica cried out and helped her up.
"I don't know." Ui said and Mari and Silica helped her to her bed. They placed her down and Ui had gotten a fever.
"She's very sick. What did that pet do?" Sherry asked as she felt Ui's head.
"She tried to free Ui from Brane's control grip. It obviously work for a bit. But it's too strong." Mari answered and folded her arms. "How dare she. How dare Azusa...no...how dare the pet. How dare this pet do this to Ui. Brane will be informed about this once he returns."
"And what about Ui?" Sherry asked Mari.
"You two take care of her. I will handle Azusa." Mari said and went to go get Azusa out of the basement and back into her chamber. Silica and Sherry watched Ui as she was moaning her sister's name and Brane's name also.
"She's having a battle inside her mind." Silica said to Sherry.
"Indeed she is." Sherry nodded. Was this the key that Ui needed to be free of Brane's grip. Only one way to find out. Ui was fighting against a figure version of herself inside her head. Mari drags Azusa outside and was going to place her back in the chamber. Azusa had a small dagger, or better yet, Ui's dagger she dropped once Mari pushed her down. Azusa stabs Mari in her side. Mari moans in pain and fell to her knees. Azusa stood up and tries to stab Mari again, Mari blocked it though. She stood up and pushes Azusa off of her. Mari was small compared to Azusa. Mari held her side and fights with her right arm. She lands a punch to Azusa who doges it. She cuts her face and kicks her down. Pina cried out and flew to Azusa and snatched the knife out. Azusa looked at Pina who flew away, this allowed Mari to land a punch. Azusa went down and groaned in pain. Mari got on top of her and placed her hands on Azusa's mouth and did the same spell that Aina did to her at the first ever Pet Show. Azusa gags and squirmed. Mari snickered.
"Gotcha now." Mari smirked. Azusa bites her fingers to counter her spell. Azusa stood up and smacks Mari down.
"I won't lose to you." Azusa said and panted. Mari got back up and fell to her knee again. She was loosing a lot of blood and was becoming weak. Mari fell down and panted. "But I don't want to hurt you." Azusa said and dragged Mari to the chamber. She found some medical stuff and decided to help Mari. Unknown to her that she needed to die in order for her soul to be saved, likewise Silica and Sherry, Azusa treats Mari's wounds up and Mari still hated her.
"Don't think that we're friends after this."
"I know." Azusa told her. She looked into Mari's eyes and Mari snatches her medical kit away.
"I don't need you to help me pet. You've done enough today." Mari said and stood up, shoving Azusa away from her.
"I'm trying to help you!" Azusa cried at Mari.
"I don't need it!" Mari said and stumbled out the door, holding her side. Silica and Sherry gasped and saw her.
"What happened!?" Sherry cried out.
"The pet happened." Mari growled and panted.
"Come on, we'll get you patched up." Silica said and helped Mari back to the castle. Azusa followed them, staying undetected. Mari told her sisters about what she did to her.
"We will tell Brane about this! She's in big trouble!" Silica exclaimed.
"No Silica!...we don't need to tell him anything." Mari said which caused Silica, Sherry and even Azusa to be shocked by Mari's words.
"Why not?" Sherry asked and pouted.
"Let's just tell him she was a good pet..that is all." Mari said and took a sigh. Was she opening up to her real self? Ui was still in a battle.
"I will kill you here and now!" Ui called out to her figure version.
"No Ui! I will be the one to end you. And I will be in control forever!" Dark Ui said and cackled. The real Ui and Dark Ui both summoned a shard arm and began to clash. Who would win? Dark Ui lands a huge blow to Ui's left arm. She cried out and turned in her sleep. Dark Ui cackled and kicks Ui in the face. Ui goes down. "You are weak!"
"No I'm not!" Ui yelled out and tackled her Dark Figure self and slashed her face. Dark Ui screeched in pain and then took a slice to the leg. Dark Ui then summoned teeth and bites down on Ui's leg. Dark Ui then punches Ui down. The fight was only just beginning. The fight would end right when Brane returned. This was only day 1 of 3 days of fighting.
