The Forbidden Love of Yukari Yakumo
Chapter 10: The Island of Serpentine Devils
The Scarlet Devil Mansion Grounds, early morning
The Island of the Lake stood in the middle of the glistening body of water, which sparkled in the early sunrise so much that it seemed that it was made of the soft, heavenly skin of Yukari's forbidden love. Yukari and Hachuurui both appeared in the pristine, green fields of the Island, and looked around for the beautiful, minuscule yellow flower which was needed for the healing potion of melioration which was needed to restore the beautiful creature of beauty that laid in Hachuurui's bed to his former aesthetic splendour. They gazed at the nearby areas, and, after fruitlessly searching for the enlighteningly healsome plant of restoration, Hachuurui remembered something as important as Dawitsu's piercing brown eyes.
"Yukari... I just remembered..." Hachuurui said ethereally, "...the only place Chaparrel grows is in the cultivated gardens of the Scarlet Devil Mansion..."
"Really?" Yukari asked, her face covered with the black darkness of fear, "But... there's vampires in there... what if they suck my blood?"
Hachuurui shook her head despairingly, her ephemeral green hair waving elegantly in the soft morning breeze, "But the potion of healing won't work without the curative properties of Chaparrel..."
Yukari thought about her Forbidden Love... about how he was probably in so much pain that he wanted to die... his heart was probably yearning for Yukari's loving care to be right beside him, but she was instead out here, trying to save him. Guilt filled her pure, loving heart, and she opened up a gap so she could see her Love for a moment.
He was lying on his back, the wound in his usually perfect gut ruining his otherwise otherworldly body. His raven hair was stained with the marks of dried, crimson sanguine droplets of blood, and he was breathing in a slow, seductive manner that caused both Yukari and Hachuurui to swoon in pure and perfect love for him.
Reaching into the gap, Yukari stroked Dawitsu's tanned, perfect face and worked her way down, onto his still-moving chest. She began to cry pure orbs of heavyhearted sadness that flowed down her ivory face like a river of uncontrollable melancholy.
Although Hachuurui wanted to let the Border Youkai grieve the perfect and pristine beauty that was her lover, she knew that she could not let her give up just yet.
"Yukari! Come on! Let's go to the Scarlet Devil Mansion! If we're lucky, they'll let us in..." Hachuurui shouted emphatically, causing Yukari to slowly turn from her unfortunate lover.
"It's... all my fault..." Yukari said slowly, closing the gap, "I warped Yutaka to the Netherworld, and now she's out to kill us two..."
Hachuurui heard Yukari's wrong, but true and pure in modesty self-loathing, and said, "No, it isn't your fault! If she wasn't so evil and let you two be together, you wouldn't have had to send her to the Netherworld..."
Comforted by Hachuurui's medically accurate analysis of the situation, Yukari mused, "I guess you're right... it's not our fault that we love each other and have to make love..."
"Yes, you two are not to blame..." Hachuurui said correctly, "Now, let's go to the Scarlet Devil Mansion!"
"Yes, let's go!" Yukari said, her spirit raised by the perfect doctor's consolation.
They walked towards the large, ostentatious mansion, its pure purple elaborateness filling the surrounding air like a strong, liquid aura of serendipity. Yukari noticed the first problem facing the two women of love and justice- it was the Chinese Guard of the Mansion, who was sleeping in a tight, slightly open green jacket that went down to the hips, only slightly covering her long, sumptuous legs that were fully revealed.
"She's fast asleep..." Yukari said noiselessly.
The two nodded at each other, like two souls permanently bound together by their trust and friendship, and walked to the Mansion Gate. They tried to open it, but it made a screeching sound that pierced through hearts, ears, and minds of the pure and unsullied maidens. However, it also pierced the obstacle's neglectfulness, and the Chinese Girl woke up, anger in her voice.
"WHAT ARE YOU DOING, YOU MEDIOCRE DUNCES?" Hong Meiling shouted in a voice too loud for the pure heart of Yukari.
"We need your help!" Yukari tried to explain, but she got punched to the floor by the repugnant Youkai of evil, and Hachuurui gasped in shock and horror, before she grabbed the Youkai by her arm.
She held the despicable martial artist by the right arm, and then kicked her in the face. Her poisonous purple blood oozed from her mouth as she fell to the floor, unconscious from the powerful and completely justified attack of immaculateness brought upon her by the Doctor of strength, truth, and beauty. Hachuurui panted understandably, as she had never needed to use her super-strength as much as that before.
She held her hand out to Yukari, who was in eternal gratitude to the beautiful, altruistic Lizard, her face smiling at the beauty with happiness.
"Thank you so much..." Yukari mused in quietness, "Is there any way I can repay you?"
"No, I am just happy to help the pure agent of true love and help the two of you live in piece. You see, I am not just any Lizard Youkai..." Hachuurui explained, "...I am the Chosen One of all the Lizards. I was hand-picked by Suwako and Kanako out of all the lizard angels to come down into Gensokyo and make sure that the only true love of the entire world ends up becoming true..."
"So... does that mean that Dawitsu and I were... meant to be?" Yukari asked.
"Yes, it does." Hachuurui said, "I have been watching you since the beginning of your love, from when you set eyes upon Dawitsu..."
"Then, why does fate seem to hate me?" Yukari asked in a black sea of depression.
"Because there are evil angels that fall from the heavens. Some of them, like Yutaka Hadekawa, are of a type called 'Succubus'- they deliberately seduce fated lovers of destiny so that their true love will never be with them... I have to fight them regularly, but now that she's a Shinigami, I'm not sure if I could beat her..." Hachuurui explained, but before she could tell to Yukari the rest of the story, the world turned as black as the dark, starless night sky.
"She's here!" Yukari called out to Hachuurui, but it was too late, and the evil, serpentine Shinigami of malevolence had already lunged at the slender-bodied nurse at full speed, impaling her through the abdomen.
"Ha ha! So, you thought you could tell Yukari my special secret?" Yutaka asked, her voice like dark, thick poison.
"NO!" Yukari screamed, crying as she watched Yutaka slowly pulled her long, bavarian [Typist's Note: Ha ha ha! That is most humorous! It seems the Lizard Woman spelled the word 'barbarian' incorrectly, but this is much better! Oh ho, Bavaria! The part of Germany famous for the cream! I do love the Belgian Waffles with the Bavarian Cream... if I ever return to what these women call 'the outside world', I will have to show Reimu and Marisa them! Oh, how they are wonderful... oh, I am meant to be typing the story, am I not?] scythe of death out of the dying lizard's body.
Yutaka grinned masochistically, "Ha! You may be an angel, but now, I'll give your mortal soul to the great Yuyuko to feast on! Ha ha ha!"
Reaching into the wound, Yutaka tried to pick up the lizard's soul, but it wasn't coming out. Slowly, like a dandelion growing back from it's cut-down stem, the nurse stood up, and weakly said, "I am not dead yet!"
Yutaka screamed in anger, "But... but... YOU CAN'T BE STILL ALIVE! My scythe kills everyone I'm meant to kill instantly!"
However, Hachuurui's pure, benevolent heart was giving her the same fuel that Dawitsu had, and she held her hands into the air, "Oh, great Suwako, and great Kanako, show me your power and grant it unto me!"
Suddenly, Hachuurui's body became covered in a glistening snowy aura of pure ivory immaculateness, and she sprouted large, crystalline dragon wings. Her wounds healed themselves, and she began to grow, so much that her already ample chest became greater than Yukari's, and her face, despite being bigger, was as beautiful as the raven-haired lover of Yukari. Her figure became flawless, and her nurse's outfit transformed into a one-piece suit that revealed her beautiful body fully, and finally, her hair became long and wavy, but floated upwards enigmatically.
In a powerful, otherworldly voice, she calmly said, "Yutaka Hadekawa... this is where your evil ends. I will defeat you, and you will not take my soul..."
Yutaka laughed, but unsureness caused her voice to waver like an evil thistle in a gale, "It... it has been fated that you will die and be taken to the Netherworld. I will carry out fate's will, and I will defeat you! This is it!"
Yukari flinched at the sheer glory of Hachuurui's body, and could not bear to look as the tiny, malevolent Shinigami charged towards the floating angel of love...
Author's Note: Oh my god! I bet you didn't see that plot twist coming! I mean, even Michel was getting emotionally overwhelmed by my writing genius! I'm brilliant! I'm perfect! I'm... beautiful, that's what!
Stupid Hebiko, getting to spend all the time with Dawitsu! WHAT DOES SHE HAVE THAT I DON'T? ARGH! Sorry, Michel, that wasn't fair, I know you're not to blame... see you later, Michel. You don't mind if I come visit you some time, would you? Where do you live? Oh, really? Alright, see ya!
Typist's Note: I am probably going to regret this, but I gave the Lizard Woman an incorrect address. I told her that I lived in the human village... hopefully they are tolerant of the harmless Youkai... unless... no, they wouldn't treat the Youkai as uh... how do you say... Guilty until proven Innocent... would they? Actually, because they eat the people, I imagine that is what they do... oh no...
Reviews for Chapter Ten:
Mateyuu Dawitsu: Pfffffffff... hahahahahaha... ohohohohohohohohoho... ahahahhahahaha... I'm sorry, I'm sorry... it's just... that has got to be the STUPIDEST PLOT TWIST I HAVE EVER COME ACROSS! Gnnnnhahahahaha... and Yutaka's... a Succubus! (He spent the rest of the review uncontrollably laughing on the floor)
Hebiko Bimyouna: Heh heh... way to bring a bad story into the hilariously bad story realm. And... is that Dawitsu? What are you doing here? Yeah, it was pretty funny, but I didn't find it that funny...
Yutaka Hadekawa: And they're walking out of the house together... oh, they're perfect for each other! Why won't they just... oh, the story? Yeah, it's terrible... but... oh, please, just kill my character off. The less time my incarnation spends in that messed-up universe the better. I don't like this defamatory book at all.
Yukari Yakumo: Why am I so useless? I could have finished this in one fell swoop... take the flowers necessary from Eirin, apply them to Dawitsu's body, sew up the flesh like he showed me a while ago, then mend the epithelial border... and done! Why is there this convoluted, ridiculous quest with crazy super-angel versions of author and evil Shinigami Shikigami? It's... just... stupid!
Marisa Kirisame: Don't listen to them, Tokage! Your book's so awesome, they're all jealous! You know, I thought you were just being a jerk when you made me pay for my autograph, but then when you gave me all that free merchandise, I realised you were just waiting for a less public place to give me all my gifts! Thank you! I'll certainly keep reading now...
Mima: DAMN IT! I told that Lizard to pay my ex-magic student compensation, not free merchandise of her stupid story! Now she's more obsessed than ever! How can I be being outwitted by a stupid lizard. I guess next time I'll have to make the death threat less subtle... I can't believe how calm she was when I told her that I'd make her wish she was a Komodo Dragon by the time I was finished with her... I guess she doesn't know I meant 'infected with innumerable diseases'... I need to be less smart and more violent...
