The audience had cleared away from the stage to take cover while watching on from their hiding spots. Reimu, Marisa, Alice, and Yukari found their own spots by the sides of the stage and watched on as the tension between the Prismriver sisters and the celestial grew bigger. Yukari had gapped the band by her and Alice on their side of the stage so that they were out of harm's way.

The sisters made the first move. They summoned their instruments and began firing off red and blue danmaku in beautiful circular patterns at Tenshi. In response, Tenshi summoned a keystone in front of her to take the blunt of attacks. "Too predictable," she sighed. She launched keystones and red danmaku at the sisters, who all scattered to dodge them all.

The boys were in awe at the sight. "This place get weirders the longers we stays here," Skwisgaar deadpanned. "Nows we has little girls firing energys bullets at each others."

"It's called 'danmaku,'" Alice corrected. "It means 'bullet hell' in English."

"Looksh just like hell over there," Murderface said dumbstruck. "I shee why it'sch called that."

They looked on as the four combatants fought each other. It seemed pretty even for a 3-on-1 match, surprisingly. Lunasa panted hard and looked at her sisters, who were feeling the same way. "Merlin, Lyrica, it's time," she said with a wheeze. They nodded and then all three of them drew spell cards. "Noisy Sign! Live Poltergeist!" Suddenly all three used their respective instruments to play a collection of quarter notes that slowly turned into danmaku after it was played.

Tenshi flew around the notes on her keystone, letting the bullets hit various parts of the stage and scaffolding and as a result, damaging all of it. "Is this the best that THREE of you can do?" she mocked. "I suppose this is what to expect from three ghosts who do nothing but play all day."

Lyrica gritted her teeth. "And what makes you think we're giving you our best yet!?" She retorted. "We're just getting started!"

Meanwhile at the side of the stage, Pickles was still on the ground unconscious from when Tenshi knocked him out with that keystone. Nathan looked over at Alice. "Hey Alice, can you use those dolls of yours to wake him up or something?" he asked. "We don't have any booze on us otherwise it'd be a lot easier to do by dumping it on him."

"Can do." She used Shanghai and Hourai to repeatedly poke Pickles with miscellaneous sharp things until he sprung awake.

"HOLY (guitar screech)!" he yelled, suddenly seeing what woke him up. "The hell were ya doin' that fer Alice!? Now I got cuts n' blood 'n stuff on me!" Shanghai and Hourai pointed in the direction of the fight going on in the middle of the stage. "Jeez, what did I miss?"

"The Prismrivers sister and the Tenshi chicks are fightings with magic bullet things called danmakus," Toki explained. He turned to Yukari. "Miss Yukaris, what was the things the sisters did with the card?"

"Spell cards," the gap youkai explained. "It's a way of producing magic that can fire more elaborate patterns of danmaku or give you other abilities, just in a card form."

The band looked at each other confused. "I stands by my statement from earliers," Skwisgaar proclaimed.

Nathan took a look back at the stage, seeing the Prismrivers getting pushed hard by Tenshi. Then he thought about the spell card explanation and a lightbulb appeared over his head. "Guys, I have an idea!" he announced to the band, Yukari, and Alice. Yukari gapped over Reimu and Marisa so they could listen in on the singer's plan on how to stop the homicidal celestial.

Merlin was sent flying into a wall on the left side of the stage. Lyrica skittered across the floor into some monitors. Lunasa was on the ground on her knees, panting heavily and looking up at her adversary.

Tenshi snickered as she stood on top of a keystone and looked down at the remaining Prismriver. "Looks like this was your last performance," she said while pointing the sword at her. "Any last words?"

"We should be askin' you dat question."

Alarmed, Tenshi quickly turned around her to see Pickles sitting at the drum set along with Murderface, Skwisgaar, and Toki on their instruments, holding cards with some kind of design on them. "What the heck do you all think you're doing?" she asked quizzically.

"We're gonna (guitar screech) you fashe up!" Murderface said. "And not in the way we normally do to chicksh!"

"Ready guys?" Pickles asked. The other three nodded. They all held up the cards. "Metal Sign! Brutal Something Or Other!" They suddenly began to play their instruments, but not in a recognizable song format.

Tenshi's face went wide in shock. "Since when could YOU use danmaku!?" she yelled, summoning keystones and ducking behind them for cover.

"Who said we could?" Fearing the worst, Tenshi slowly turned her head around to see Nathan standing behind her, cracking his knuckles. Before she even had a chance to react, he slugged her hard in the face and sent her crashing into the wall of amps, causing her to lose her sword in the process. "Metal fan or not, you should know NEVER to interrupt a Dethklok show," he growled. "No one gets away with it, not even a girl."

She quickly looked at the other band members in confusion and horror. "But how could you five get the drop on me like that? That doesn't make sense!"

Toki held up the card in his hand. "We don't knows anythings about this danmakus thing, so we used playings cards and tricked yous," he said with a giggle and turned it over to reveal a two of clubs.

The five of them gathered around Tenshi and slowly closed in on her. "Yous ams a lot craziers than most of the groupies we has slepts with, but not half as smarts," Skwisgaar insulted. "Even I didn't thinks you was goings to falls for that."

She dusted herself off and stood up to them. "Don't mock me! I won't be made fun of by a bunch of gangly noise-making dirtbags!" She tried throwing keystones and danmaku at them, but before they could react and dive out of the way, the bullets and keystones were swallowed by a gap.

"That's enough out of you Tenshi," Yukari barked as she and the other three walked up behind the guys. "You've done enough showstopping for one day."

The celestial was fuming mad and gritted her teeth hard. "Oh, decided to show up as soon as your enemy was down huh? Cowardly move considering there's twelve of you now!"

Reimu shrugged it off. "We never got involved, more or less. The Prismrivers fought you and the band got in on it. You got beat by five normal humans and three ghosts that rarely fight, that's pretty insulting for a celestial if you ask me."

Tenshi's eyes darted around at everyone gathering around her, looking for some way out of this one. She smirked and summoned the Sword of Hisou back to her hand. "If that's how you all want to play it, so be it!" She held up the sword, getting ready to plunge it into the ground. But she stopped when suddenly a bolt of lightning appeared in the middle of everyone, making them all back up a few steps.

Out of the bolt came Iku, standing in front of her superior in a neutral expression. "Lady Tenshi," she said in a very even tone.

Tenshi's face lit up at the appearance of the messenger. "Iku! I'm so glad you came!" She grinned evilly at her opponents. "I was in need of some back-up anyways."

Iku's hands glowed with lightning, but her expression did not change at all. Yukari, Reimu, Marisa, and the band stepped back while Alice tended to the Prismrivers. "Iku, you can't honestly condone this, can you?" Yukari asked. "This is madness!"

Iku shook her head. "I do whatever is expected of my master Yukari, I'm sorry."

Tenshi laughed and raised the sword again. "See? Now you're all going to pay, especially you Dethklok!"

Iku looked back at Tenshi. "And my master is Lord Nai." Before the latter realized what was going to happen, Iku sent hundreds of volts of electricity surging through the celestial princess's body, stunning her and making her drop to the ground while everyone else was shocked at the sight.

"W-w-what are you…?"

The oarfish youkai's hands still glowed with the deadly charges. "Your blind conquest of stopping the concert for your own personal gain did not sit well with your father Tenshi. You should know from the scarlet weather incident that doing whatever you want, especially in the case of causing trouble to suit your own interests, leads to discourse. He tasked me with retrieving you and bringing you back to heaven so that you may live for the next few years under his supervision."

Veins were popping into Tenshi's head and her face was getting redder with rage. "How dare you! Even my own FATHER will let this trash roam free in Gensokyo!? Are you KIDDING me!?"

Iku turned back to everyone else and bowed apologetically. "My apologies for everything that has happened. I will see to it that we have someone compensate for the damages."

"And thank you for saving the show," Marisa said. "This would have been a pretty crappy way of ending a performance if you ask me."

Iku nodded. "As for you Dethklok, I apologize on behalf of us celestials for Tenshi's behavior. But for right now, you have a show to perform, no?"

As if it was on cue, Nathan picked up the microphone. "Gensokyo! The dumb bitch known as Tenshi has finally been taken care of!"

Tenshi was even more pissed. "H-hey, I'm not a b-" Iku zapped her with more lightning. The audience returned to the grounds and cheered loud for the show continuing.

Iku looked at her superior with disgust. "Time to go." In a flash, the two celestials were gone and back up in heaven.

"Now, who's ready for more!?" Nathan growled. The audience cheered louder as the band tuned up their instruments again to continue the show.
