After a horrifying night of camping and tomatoes, it was nice to have a moment of peace. As the group walked through the Lotus Lake, they couldn't help but stare in awe, and event Raya was silenced by the sight. "Much beautiful is being..."

"Be careful not to get distracted now," Konade cautioned them. "We still have to keep an eye out for Shari-Chan's face."

"Eep!" Susumu suddenly bumped into something while she was looking around. "S-sorry!" She apologized. "I didn't mean to- AHHH!"

And then she screamed when she saw what she had bumped into. Laying right in front of Susumu's face was some sort of giant blue frog creature. It looked like it could easily swallow her up, and considering the Mii Traps earlier, it probably would.

"Hey, it's alright, Susumu," Raya tried to comfort her. "Look, that thing doesn't have a face stuck to it. It's not gonna attack us!"

No sooner had he said that, however, than Shari-Chan's face did appear and stuck itself to the frog.

"...I may have just jinxed us."

Konade rolled her eyes, and swung her cherry branch at the frog. "Well, it looks like we'll have to fight it out now!"

Raya fired a few shots from his cannon, and Bowyetta flung another gust of air at the frog. "Urgh..." They hadn't been fighting for very long, and Raya was already starting to look tired.

Susumu noticed this, and quickly made her way to Raya's side. "Come on, Raya!" she cheered him on. "We've gotta keep fighting!"

"Whoa!" Suddenly, Raya felt a lot less tired! "Thanks, Susumu!" This time, he began charging up a laser attack and firing at the frog.

As the frog rolled up to attack Bowyetta, she let out a scream. At the sound of her scream, however, something flew out of her hair. Two things, in fact. It looked like a pair of hovering arrows, except... They had dog faces! "This way, Bowyetta~!" one of them instructed her, moving her out of the way before she got hit.

The battle went on for a bit longer, and just as the group thought they had won, the frog decided to try something. The frog inhaled a large breath, and spewed out a horrible-smelling green cloud.

Konade could feel her petals drooping. "Urgh! W-what IS that?!"

Susumu REALLY felt like she was going to be sick this time. This smelled worse than the tomatoes. Bowyetta tried to fan the cloud away from herself.

In a moment of desperation, however, Raya quickly scooped up Susumu. "Augh! R-Raya-" She was interrupted when he suddenly shoved her into his cannon.

"What you are doing?!"

"Saving us!"

"Raya, why did-"

Before Konade could finish, however, Raya fired Susumu out of his cannon, nailing the frog right in Shari-Chan's face. "Direct hit!"

"Raya..." Konade sighed. "Did you really have to do that?"

"Hey, I saved Shari-Chan's face, didn't I?!" Raya snapped. "I'm sure Susumu's fine, anyway! See, you're okay, aren't you, Susumu?"

Susumu, meanwhile, was dunking her head in the water, trying to keep herself from throwing up. "...Eh?"

"Oh, never mind," Konade groaned, helping Susumu stand up. "I'm worried about the Sharisharis. Were Kari-Chan and Gari-Chan okay while we were gone?"

"It looked like Azamir left after he took everyone's faces," Susumu stated. "I don't think he got any more faces from here..."

"Then what are we waiting for?! Let's go after that stupid Dark Lord!" He then rolled off back towards the village.

Bowyetta quickly followed after Raya, but Konade looked concerned. "Are you going to be alright, Susumu?"

"Trust me, I... Went through a lot worse in the desert," Susumu answered. "I don't want to talk about it. Anyway, he's right. Maybe the Sharisharis can help us again." With that, the two headed back toward the village after their friends.
