Kari-Chan seemed to have calmed down a lot now that she was found, and the girls had a hard time keeping up with her on the way to Bigg Forest. "You guys are really gonna like Gari-Chan!" she exclaimed. "She's so cool and mature and she takes care of us and..."

"It sounds like the Sharisharis really love each other..." Susumu mumbled. She wondered if her friends were worried about her too. "I wonder how everyone else is feeling... I wonder if they're thinking about me too..."

Konade seemed concerned. "Susumu? Who... Are you talking to?"

Before Susumu could answer, however, Kari-Chan spoke up again. "Hey, hey! We're here!" she announced. "Gari-Chan's in here somewhere! We gotta go save big sister! Don't be afraid, okay? I'll be right by you!"

But Kari-Chan yelped when she heard what sounded like a voice. "D-do you all hear that?! I-It's gotta be a monster!"

Konade listened a bit closer. "...No... No, it... It sounds like a person! Like... Someone singing?"

Susumu listened as closely as she could, and now she could hear the singing as well: "Ra ra ra ra..."

"That sounds... Like Ariel?! But... What's she doing out here?" Susumu began to move forward on her own, following the song.

"Who is... Ariel?" Konade and Kari-Chan were confused by Susumu's behavior, and followed her further into the forest.

Susumu and the girls followed the sounds to some sort of clearing in the forest. "Hey, look!" she called out to the others. "There's someone here, and she's singing!"

In the middle of the clearing stood what seemed to be a very tall girl, wearing a long gown and tiara. She was singing to a group of Lureshrooms, and yet, they didn't seem hostile towards her at all. "Ra ra ra... Ra ra ra ra..."

"That was wonderful!" Konade suddenly blurted, causing the girl to turn around. The girls were shocked to see that she wasn't human at all! In fact, she was some sort of tall metal creature, with odd, glassy, square-shaped eyes.

The girl flashed a sharp-toothed smile. "Thanking of you muchly!" she thanked Konade. "To be certain, Bowyetta was not knowing anyone had been listening of her... But she is much glad you were enjoying! ...Who you are being anyway?"

"Oh! My name is Susumu, and this is Konade," Susumu introduced the girls. "And you must be Bowyetta, right?"

"Um, I'm Kari-Chan!" Kari-Chan spoke up. "We're looking for big sister Gari-Chan! She came here but she isn't back yet!"

"Oh! Bowyetta is knowing what you are meaning!" Bowyetta announced. "She is thinking she is having seen Miss Gari-Chan around here somewhere..."

"Can you take us to her, Bowyetta?" Konade asked. "Shari-Chan and Kari-Chan are very worried about her!"

Bowyetta nodded. "Yes! Bowyetta is knowing just where Miss Gari-Chan is!" Bowyetta answered. Before she led the girls off, however, she turned back to the group of Lureshrooms. "Bowyetta is being finished with singing now! Thanking of you all muchly for coming!" Once all the Lureshrooms had left, Bowyetta began to lead the girls to where she last saw Gari-Chan.

The girls walked through the forest for what felt like forever, until they came to another clearing. Sure enough, Gari-Chan was standing there. "B-Big sister Gari-Chan!" Kari-Chan called out to her. "Shari-Chan and I have been- Uwaah!"

Gari-Chan then turned around to warn her sister, revealing that her face had been stolen as well. "Gari-Chan, your face!" Susumu exclaimed. "Where is it? What has it?!"

Gari-Chan motioned for the others to follow her, and pointed to some sort of large bird, complete with Gari-Chan's face stuck to it. "Gari-Chan's face!" Konade got ready to attack. "Get ready everyone! We're going to have to fight it out!"

Bowyetta looked terrified as soon as she said that. "B-But... Bowyetta is not much liking to be fighting..." she squeaked. She changed her mind, however, as soon as she saw the look on Kari-Chan's face. It was for the sake of Gari-Chan, wasn't it? She took out her fan and swung it in the air, sending a wave to attack the bird.

That single hit alone seemed to do a serious amount of damage to the bird, but now it was preparing for an attack. It reared back its head and... Lightly tapped Susumu on her forehead.

"...Was... That seriously it?" Susumu was surprised at how... Weak the bird ended up being. She swung her microphone at the bird again, finishing it off with just another hit.

The girls could only stare in disbelief as Gari-Chan's face was restored. "I thought that thing would be a lot stronger..." Konade mumbled.

"B-big sister?" Kari-Chan seemed concered for her sister.

"...GARADEN, I LOVE BEIN' AN OWL!" Gari-Chan turned to face the stunned crowd. "...Eh? Oh, I'm terribly sorry about that, dears."

"B-Big sister!" Kari-Chan began crying again. "I-I was so scared!"

"Oh, Kari-Chan, come here, dear," Gari-Chan said softly, taking her sister into her arms, before looking up at the girls. "I must thank you all for looking after Kari-Chan for me. But, where is Shari-Chan?"

"She's waiting for you two back at the village," Susumu explained. "And, the three of us... We need to go stop that Dark Lord! He has my friends!"

"Oh, is that so?" Gari-Chan stopped to think for a moment. "Well, dears, you just might be in luck! My sisters and I can help you, but... We need all three of us to be together for this. Kari-Chan, let's get Shari-Chan and go to the east end of town. I know just how we can help our new friends!"

Kari-Chan nodded, and followed her sister back to town. The girls looked at each other before heading back themselves, deciding it would be best not to comment on the situation.
