Diclaimer: I do not own Okami, the wonderful Whoever Created It does.
Yumi POV:
Once Ammy and I enter Tsuta ruins we transform back into wolf form. We see a large statue covered in moss.
"That's a pretty oddly shaped statue. Look at all that moss. Must've been here for ages. And what's up with that weird water? I don't think you wanna go jumping in there, furball. How 'bout drawing some lily pads so we can check it out?" Issun suggested. I draw a lily pad and it disintegrates. My jaw drops and I say to Issun:
"Well aren't you the bug genius Issun?" I say slyly. Issun turns red and starts screaming.
"I thought we were done with this 'bug' thing! And it was only a suggestion!" Issun shouts at me. Ammy sighs. We head to the right with me insisting we do. We exit the main cave and enter a smaller cave. We see some cursed trees and bloom them. We enter another cave and draw a lily pad(On CLEAN water, not poisonous)after Ammy and I jump onto a ledge. We walk down the incline and see a round thing. It was stone hard.
"Uh guys?" I say.
"Yeah?" Ammy asks.
"Do not headbutt that ball. Okay?" I say nervously.
"Why? Oh right...I totally knew that..." Issun says oddly. And now I think he is suspicious.
"Yeah Issun. You totally knew that it looked very much solid." I said very slyly. I think he is glaring at me now. Anyways we continue on forward to some VERY creepy statues. But we get interrupted by a dumb Bud Ogre.
"OK! Now look for a chance to use your Celestial Brush! Still, this thing's sure got a tough bud! Wonder if you could open its bud before you attacked it?" Lucky there was two Bud Ogre's so Ammy and I could both try.
"Alright ogre you're goin' down!" I yell and attack the Ogre. I quickly bloom the bud and decide to use a potato to finish it off but I end up with a cupcake instead I do my best wolfy shrug and throw(wolf style)the cupcake. It dies but before it falls to the ground I remember its Flora Finisher(the way to get demon fangs from monsters): Bloom. I bloom it and get a demon fang. I quickly yell to Ammy who has her tail pointed for the flora finisher, except she is about to do Power Slash.
"It's Bloom, not Power Slash!" I guess she hears and does bloom instead.
"Thanks." She says to me when the battle is finished. We then notice the stone ball was now movable. We headbutt it over to a strange pedestal. The doors then creak open slowly. We slowly and cautiously enter. We get attacked by another group of Bud Ogre's and kill them quickly.
"What the?" I ask upon seeing tiny mushroom sprouts.
"Wow! Get a load of the size of these mushrooms! I kinda feel sorry for 'em, though. It's so gloomy in here. I bet a little sunshine is all it would take to perk 'em up." Issun says.
"Wow? What do ya' mean Issun? Their puny!" I say. But before Issun could say anything I said:
Whatever, maybe some sunshine is what we need. Ammy would you mind if I try?" I ask carefully.
"Not at all Yumi." I nod in thanks and quickly draw the sun. It works and I hop up in down for a second and the mushrooms grow. HUGE.
"Uhhhhhhhh...How about jumping on them?" I ask. We go through the path and enter yet another door. We enter a large room with a curving bridge and walk carefully on it.
"G-Guys... Hold on a sec. My nose's felt all itchy since those huge mushrooms back there. Ah... Ah... Ah-choo! Dang it!" Issun shouts. The echoes bounce around the room then the bridge starts to crumble.
"Run like potatoes!" I yell not caring about the sound of my voice. Me and Ammy sprint for our live making sharp turns at the curves of the bridge. When we finally reach the safe spot.
"Phew..." I say panting. We then discuss the door with the weird lock. We then go down the platforms to the first floor. We then see a large flat black I recognized as Blockhead.
"How about you guys check over there an I'll look for another way out this way?" I ask them. They nod. I walk over and around an start to let my mind think about how I got into Okami. I guess I started to walk into a wall because I felt a prick on my paw and I looked down. Issun was stabbing me with the handle of his sword.
"We found a key now come on already!" Issun shouted.
"Issun! I turn my back for one second and you two are fighting AGAIN." Ammy says in a harsh tone. We walk over to the platforms and walk up from there. Once the door is open we continue on. We come to a broken bridge and I fix it. We cross and see three demon gates. We take them out quickly. We then see a log and some mushrooms. Luckily there was a spot where we could draw the sun. After we did that we went over to the mushrooms and hopped onto them and jumped to each one.
"Is it just me or is this really tiring?" I ask. I don't get an answer. We jump to the ledge and walk around to find some statues.
"Check out these pots! Poisonous water's spilling outta them! I bet this is what's been harming the natural beauty amid the ruins!" Issun says.
"What about Power Slashing them?" I suggest. Ammy nods and we both chop some evil pots up.
"Looks like the poison that was polluting this water has completely cleared up! Now it looks like a great place for a swim! There's even a waterfall! I bet it'd be loads of fun to go straight down it! Ah... What I meant was a playful dog like Ume might do that. I-I haven't forgotten about what we're looking for. Have you? And, of course, heh heh heh... I haven't given up on hunting down some treasure, either!" Issun says. We swim to the ummm ahhh crotch of the statue and enter the portal. Once we enter we see three patches of cursed grass and we split up to heal them. Ammy and I each do half of the last patch of grass. Then I notice it was night and the sky was shining.
"Another constellation!" I exclaim. Then yet another monkey appears.
"Ah... Amaterasu and Yumi. Origin of all that is good and mother to us all, and Yumi sister of, oh ummm... I, Tsutagami, the last in the triumvirate of Hanagami flora gods, have humbly awaited your glorious return for 100 years. May the fresh spring growth bloom from your snow white form, and your golden form. Bring new life to the land that suffers under evil." Tusutagami said simply before vanishing into a kanji orb.
"That was Tsutagami, the third and final god of flora! He's the god that can make vines do his bidding! One folktale tells how Tsutagami used that power to tie vines to his body so that he could fly through the air. Hey, that's a Konohana Blossom, the flower of the gods over there! Try making a vine sprout right out of it!"Issun explains. Ammy and I each draw a line to our bodies to the flower.
"Perfect! Wow, it sure is handy to have a god around! You can draw out vines when the Konohana Blossom is open. Let's look around and see if any others are blooming." Issun says. We continue this method of drawing lines connecting our bodies to the flowers and soar through the air until we get to the top and exit the inside of the statue. We see more flowers and get onto those again and again until we reach the top of the statue. Ammy and I nod to each other and draw lines to hooks to flowers. The top opens and we jump in. We proceed and examine a door.
"We really gonna go in there? Really? Are you serious? I'm getting a real bad vibe here. What's beyond this door? You sure we're ready? Maybe we should go back outside." Issun say nervously.
"No. We have to save Ume." I say.
"Alright." Issun says. And we enter. We approach a gold gate and pass through it. We then fall off a ledge and enter a large cavern. We then see a dog in a huge flower. Then Issun being the genius he is moves towards the flower. The flower then begins to shake. Ammy does some Matrix moves, gets Issun back before he was killed and lands on all fours next to me.
"Hey, lemme go, wolf breath! I'm all covered with your slobber again!" Issun says angrily.
"Uh Issun I think we more important things to do than worry about you." I say and watch the terror unveil.
