"Mmnn.." Mokou groaned, slowly opening her eyes from the previous nights sleep. She slowly moved her head, seeing Medicine no where in sight. "M-Medi...?" she said lightly, sitting up and rubbing her eyes.
Medicine popped her head into the tent, smiling happily. "Hi!~" she giggled.
Mokou slowly turned around to face the doll. "Hey...you're up early..I think." Mokou said, getting up and stretching. She took the talismans out of her hair and ran her fingers through her hair, trying to straighten it. "At times I hate my hair..." She muttered, finally getting it straight after about five minutes of constant work. She retied the talismans into her hair and smiled.
"I like you're hair Mokou, it's nice." Medicine said, smiling and walking over. "Thanks."
Mokou looked at the doll, slightly confused. "Whaddya mean?"
"For yesterday. I thought I was going to be alone for that." Medicine said lightly, hugging the immortal tightly.
Mokou smiled, hugging back. "Hey, it was nothing." She chuckled.
"No really..it meant a lot." the tsukumogami said, slowly releasing.
"Well, ya know where to find me." the Fujiwara said, walking out of the tent with Medicine. "I need to go, so...see ya soon." Mokou said.
"Alright, bye!~" Medicine smiled, seeing Mokou spread her flaming phoenix wings and take off. Medicine sighed a bit as she left, looking at the flowers around her. "I'm sorry about...um..what happened last night Su-san. The thunder and lightning scared me...hm?" Medicine asked her flowers, kneeling. "Something..wrong or..?" She asked, her eyes opening widely and suddenly using her poison manipulation to make an explosion of poison under her feet to send her rocketing towards the outer reach of the fields. "Her..."
"Are you sure she'll be here...she nearly killed you last time."
"Don't worry about it, I'm sure she'll be here any time now~ze"
"You really do worry me. You're literally bringing me to a doll who can kill me. I have NO control over things with free will." Alice groaned, readying her strings.
"C'mon! You have that grimoire! Use it!" Marisa said, quickly covering her mouth. "Sorry...ze..."
Alice sighed. "It's fine..it's fine.." She said, holding her book close against her. "Just get ready."
Marisa looked at Alice, confused. "Why?" She asked, seeing a giant pillar of poison erupt between the two blondes.
"That's why..." Alice said, unaffected by the attack. "Hello there."
Medicine landed, long sword in each of her hands. The doll was adapt at making poison weapons now and could make them with the greatest of ease. "Doll Maker...Love Witch..." Medicine said, walking towards the two.
Marisa chuckled nervously as she regained her composure. "I'll tell ya watch~ze." Marisa started. She closed her eyes and put her hands behind her head. :if you can beat me, I'll let ya fight Alice one on one, if not, two on one." Marisa said.
"Marisa.,don't tease people you know what happens." Alice said, keeping herself ready for an attack.
"I'll take the bet." Medicine said, making the long swords vanish. She made a small object in her right hand and holding it in both, arching her body to cup it behind her and angle her body to hide it. "Forsaken Love: Poison Spark!" Medicine yelled, laughing as she blasted backwards and using poison spikes to keep her balance. From her hands, a giant, poison laser similar to Marisa's Master or Final spark.
Marisa opened her eyes. "WHAT THE HELL?" she yelled, trying to brace herself as the laser roared towards her. "This isn't fai-!" She yelled, being blasted back into the ground, her body covered in Medicine's new poison, a sickly green and red mix.
Alice's mouth hung open, unable to for any words other than sounds of shock, awe, and horror. "W-w-what..."
Medicine panted, plucking a suzuran from the stem and holding it. "You see that Su-san? I killed her with her own spell!" She giggled, feeling revitalized from the poison in the flower.
"You're a monster!" Alice yelled, flicking her wrist and summoning a mesh of dolls, aiming at the rouge doll.
"Me?" Medicine snapped. "Look at you, abusing dolls like toys!" She growled, making two long polls in her hands.
"You killed my friend!" Alice yelled back, pulling on a few strings. Some of the dolls in the air stored energy, then sent small red lasers at the rouge doll. The tsukumogami spun her polls, deflecting or breaking the laser, a few segments breaking through and pegging Medicine.
"You're using MY brethren as weapons!" the doll said, hurling both of the polls at the doll maker, causing her to drop her strings and dodge.
Alice grinned a bit. "Not too bad doll...but you'll need more than that."
"Well..without you're friend, I can focus more energy on you're worthless body." Medicine retorted.
"I'll show you worthless!"
"Bring it you witch!" Medicine yelled, making a poison clone of the mini-hakkero again. "This isn't going to end well if I use it.." she muttered to herself. She turned the hakkero into a knife and rushed at the doll maker, who retorted quickly with a sharp flick of the wrist to summoned a sword and shield bearing doll to parry the attack. Medicine jumped back as the weapons collided, not wanting to damage the doll.
"Aw, what's wrong, don't wanna hurt you're friend?" Alice mocked, making the doll rush at Medicine. "Now's a good a time as any to work on my new Hourai doll." She muttered.
The large doll, dodged and parried each blow, trying to find a way not to hurt the doll. She quickly made a second knife and rolled in front of the battle ready Hourai doll. The tsukumogami noticed the faint glimmer of the string and cut it using her knife. The Futuristic Hourai doll fell to the ground, leaving Alice open.
"I'll give you two more tries, then you're dead." Medicine said, readying herself.
