A/N: Ahh, back in the saddle once again! Let's see how this turns out, shall we? On with the show!

A/N2: Ended up making a chapter that needed to be long, yet wasn't done yet, so I owe nothing, as this chapter's double my requirement for chapter length!

Late night, Night of the Full Moon, Misty Lake, Tenma's PoV:

I took my first bite of the eggplant that I had been tossed; I had only waited as long as I had, as I find it awkward to eat while watching others at eachothers throats. Aki really does need to watch that temper of hers...

"Needle Human, that was a rather impressive feat. Is that a weapon with a legacy, or is it just an ordinary set of... unending throwing needles?" Judging by the Shrine Maidens reaction, I'd say that she has no idea what I speak of. "A weapon of legacy, as the name implies, is a weapon with a past to it. If you haven't even named a weapon, it will be unable to kill a Youkai for good." It's not like it's some big secret, so I see no point in keeping it as such to one that will obviously need such knowledge.

"Is that so~?" This was news to Rumia, as she knew little about the process of Youkai Extermination.

"That is so, young one." With a single look to the eyes, I can easily discern the general age of a being. Within eyes, one can see just how much experience one has had with the world, even if the body looks otherwise. For example, I would say the little one is under twenty.

"So... if, for example, I were to never name my dagger... I could in theory attack a Youkai without fear of killing it?" Mima doesn't want to harm anyone, even if they are trying to kill her.

"Hmm... I suppose that would be correct, human." I turned my head to Yukari, as I had heard the 1000th tearing sound that was the creation of a gap. Very few creatures could hear the hardly audiable sound that was that of reality splittling open.

Tengu are usually not even on that list, but I'm special.

"Rise, ohh Dragon! Come forth, and grant me my wish!" Yukari's voice was headache inducingly loud, and echoed through the surrounding forests. I... think I just went a bit deaf temporarily. I see her mouth moving, and yet hear no words. The sounds of nature have all gone deathly silent, too...

Yukari's PoV:

I began to layer gap upon gap, intent on summoning the granter of wishes. It's no simple task to summon her, but I'd recently found a way... Around 100 years ago I found that a human sacrifice was needed. ...No, not as in the life of a human. Well, I suppose it is lethal if you offer only one human... I have to offer both the Yin, and the Yang, of a human, or alternate halfs from a pair of humans. Going by how they act, I decided to offer Mima's yang, as I doubt she'd care which side was offered, and Miko's yin, as she seems the type to consider yin 'evil' and thus something to be rid of. In truth, it'll only cause them to become a sort of balancer for this world I plan to create. Yin is but the opposite of Yang, and has no other true purpose but to balance the one it is within. However, if you remover one, the other will consume you, and maybe even warp you a tad. It's not anything major, really. Not in the least!

I began to send out the gaps I had collected in my hand. It's no simple task to even summon a dragon, as they are the highest form of divitiy.

I used two of the gaps to switch the border of concious and unconcious in Daiyousei and Aki, as I'd need them atleast concious to complete the dimentional hole. Other than as witnessess, they had no real purpose, unless I need help restraining the girls.

I began to place gaps in an enormous dome over the area I wished to create a border around. by the time I had placed the 1000th one, the sky was nothing but purple mist and eyes, with naught but a few rays of moonlight seeping in through the cracks for light.

"Woah..." Miko looked to the false sky, feeling a chill in her spine.

"...That sure is a lot of eyes..." Mima couldn't help but point out the obvious.

"That is so~!" Rumia couldn't help but agree with Mima, as there had to be atleast 10,000 eyes looking down upon them.

"It's... Time..." I was heavily strained by having so many gaps open at once, so I could hardly even grunt out a word or two.

"Understood." Tenma moved faster than just about any eye could see, and in that instant, had restrained both Mima and Miko. "Fair- Daiyousei, It's now your part.

"Y-yeesh, you d-d-don't have to rem-mind me... I haven't f-forgotten my role!" The Fae began to spread her wings out, revealing her full set of 10 wings to the world; while she normally has them layered, she can only preform her stronger magics upon opening them up.

With a wave of her hand, the grassy area we were standing upon became covered in the flowers of spring, before those flowers began to become un-naturally large, and became like flowery tendrils.

"W-what are you doing? !" Miko was the first of the two to begin panicking; they were restrained far faster than we could react, so they barely noticed at first.

"...Just what is it that you plan to do to u-? !" Mima was silenced by a flower stem constricting itself over her mouth, as Daiyousei found all the shouting to be rather irritating.

"Be calm. We do not have any plans to harm you." Tenma cooed words of comfort into the ears of the girls, which, oddly enough, actually helped to calm them. Mostly Mima though, as she was more trusting of strangers.

Rumia simply stood there, feeling a bit awkward; she could try to help, but... fighting a Great Youkai is ill advised, much less three of them.

In short: they were on their own.

The flowers began to wrap around the pair of maidens, cacooning them in the vine-like stems of the flowers, save for their chest.

Next, Tenma held up her clawed hand, and drove one into each of the chests, oddly doing no damage, even if she should be penetrating their hearts.

"Which do I take?" Tenma realised that she hadn't any idea as to what I wanted.

"T-take... Yin from... Miko... Y-yang from... from M-mima..." My knees were now shaking, as I was begining to feel as though I was bearing the weight of the planet upon my shoulders. Delaying this was a horrible strain, as I had to hold back the energies of all 1000 gaps.

"...W-which i-i-is which...?" Daiyousei voiced her confusion, while her teeth continued chattering away, pointing out the flaw in that statement; none of them knew their names.

Rumia perked up, as she now felt that she had a use. "Mima's to the left." even without sight, the smell of her friend was a rather memorable one.

With that last bit of information, Tenma ripped her hand from their chests, ataining a glowing white stone from Mima, and a glowing black strone from Miko. Knowing what to do from here, she pressed them together, where they formed into a single Yin Yang orb. With the offering now complete, I began my ritual anew, thus eliminating the strain from myself once more.

"Ohh wise Dragon, come forth, and accept this offering of Yin and Yang! I beseach thee, come forth, and grant me my wish!" My voice once more returned to being a painfully loud echo. However, this time, Tenma was prepared by holding her ears down with her palms, thus negating the temporary deafness that would have ensued.

One by one, the gaps began to link together, untill they had formed a solid shell across the lands, and cut off the little light that was being let in. The land was pitch black, save for the slight glow of Daiyousei's wings, which hardly even illuminated anything other than themselfs.

From the dome, the head of a colossal chinese dragon began to enter our world. Slowly, but surely, it slithered its way into our world untill it was fully within the dome that would soon seal us away from the world.

The dragons mouth slowly began to stretch open in a yawn, before it spoke. "Who has summoned I, the Eternal Dragon?" The voice reverberated across the land, causing every living thing to feel humbled by the hulking beast, which had to be atleast ten kilometres long. Its scales were a deep green, and each the size of a small shield, while its underbelly was a soft yellow color. It had what looked like yellow antlers atop its skull, and a pair of kilometre long whiskers dangling from its snout. Those ruby red eyes looked through everyone, while looking at nothing in particular, as it had yet to notice us. This was the last step in my master plan, and lifes work. The only light source in this bubble I had created would be

"Eternal dragon, I am the one who has summoned thee!"

I began to speak as loudly as I could, which boomed almost as loud as the dragons own voice. Tenma was in a fair bit of pain by this point, even if she didn't show it.

"Yes, yes... Now stop shouting. ...You make me feel like this is to be a voice contest. I'd win, obviously, but you would take the second place prize."...The dragon seems more down to earth than I had anticipated...

"R-right... Well, I have one human worth of Yin and Yang to offer you." Tenma handed me the orb, and I held it between my thumb and fore finger, as it was only the size of a fist.

"What? Dragons haven't eaten such things in thousands of years! I cannot accept that, however, if you have any oranges..." The dragon's stomach began to vibrate the air around it, as though 500 starving humans were put together and their stomachs all growled at once.

"W-well... If you are sure that you want such a simple thing, I can offer you a half ton of the things. But, what shall I do with this...?" It seems a waste to have ripped it out of their bodies, if she doesn't want it.

"Yes, that's a fine trade... I'll offer you my boon; a single wish of your choice. Ohh, and put those things back in the reverse of those you took them from; It will help me grant your wish, whatever it may be." The maw of the Dragon curled into a smile at the prospect of getting so many oranges. She loves oranges a great deal.

I deftly ripped the orb in two, splitting it into Yin and Yang once more, before walking over to the two girls who were tightly bound.

"Looks like you each get to be rather interesting from this day forth! Mima, you shall be an aspect of darkness within this land." I pushed the small orb of glowing black in the her chest. "And you, Miko, shall be an aspect of Light!" I pushed the remaining orb of glowing white into her chest.

"Yes, yes... Now, about that wish." The Dragon began to grow impatient.

"A-ahh, right!" The was this dragon spoke really threw me off balance... "This dome of portals... I wish for you to turn it into a great barrier that seals this land off from the rest of the world. I wish to be able to repair it as needed, and, for the power source, bind it to the name Hakurei." The dragons ruby eyes began to glow a brilliant red in response.

The sky slowly faded back into... well, sky. However, those that could see barriers could easily tell that it was as I had asked.

"Your wish has been granted. ...Now, about those... those... orange... 'bout those..." The dragons voice trailed off, and its eyes began to dim, untill they were as black as onyx. The dragon started to plummet to the ground, but vanished before impact, saving the freshly claimed land from obliteration.

"...What just happened...?" I was at a loss for words. Had I... had I just seen that dragon die?

Was it my fault?

The flowers slowly unwrapped the two humans, allowing their unconcious forms to fall to the ground. Their bodies still were glowing with their respective overabundance of Yin and Yang.

"...Did ya just kill the Dragon...?" Aki had similar thoughts as my own.

"I don't think it's dead. However, I do think that was too large of a wish for such a young dragon." Tenma shed light on what happened.

"Wait, h-how the h-hell d-d-do you know that it's a young D-dragon...?" Daiyousei began to rub her arms for warmth, as she was getting tired of being cold.

"The eyes betray its age. It's but a Pup of 500 years." Wow, that is young...

I suppose I'll have to repay her sacrifice, should I ever see her again... I don't like the idea of being in the debt of a High God, even if it is a young one.

"Ugh... My head..." Mima began to awaken, and held her throbbing head. Being used to power the barrier isn't very taxing, but it gives horrible head aches for the first few days.

I suppose I should plan a feast, shouldn't I? I have been planning, and planning, but never thought of what to do should my plan succeed! Dammit...

I began to gap everyone back from wence they came, just as the sun was about to touch the horizon. Best not to keep anyone for longer than needed, right?

However I quickly popped through a gap, so as to ask Tenma a question.

"Hey... that shrine atop your mountain... It's ready, right?" While they were fixing up the shrine on one side of Gensokyo, I requested that that the Tengu fix up the one that was on the peak of Youkai Mountain.

"Yes, yes... We even had the Kappa pump water into the mouth of the inactive valcano so they have a water source." Tenma had finished undressing in the short time since I had sent her home, exposing her impressive breasts that had been mashed down by her Sarashi, and a soft looking tuft of snow white hair, neither of which she made any effort to cover. Tenma wasn't shy in the least, and was hard to even get so much as a reaction out of.

"Good, because I sent Mima and Rumia up there, as I suspect that Miko might be a bit dangerous towards Youkai now. I'd rather not have anyone be killed, if I can avoid it." I smiled slightly to my old friend.

"Duely noted. Now, can I sleep...?" Tenma was rather tired, as she had been up for a week strait due to a bit of in fighting.

I gave no answer, but popped my body back through the gap, thus answering her question without words.

Tenma sighed, and flopped over onto her bed made of numerous animal pelts piled on top of eachother. Before long, she began to sleep soundly, enjoying the soft fur against her skin.

She dreamed of living out life as a human, and eventually dieing of old age. A pleasant dream, as it took her away from the mononony of her life. Not that she desired such a thing. What Tengu would envy the humans? Them, and their blessedly short existance.
