Ah, here we are, another chapter, if anything, I wanna try to get out 2 chapters a week, but hey, Lazy person here. Besides, I'm not too confident in my writing ability, but anyways, please r/r and enjoy! Victim dis time around is Reisen, the lunar booneh. Thanks to The All-Mighty Kei for the review.
The full moon's rays shone brilliantly on the walls of Eintei, the House of Eternity. One of its occupants, a tall girl who was wearing a short blue skirt, which led up to a plain white blouse with a bright red tie, next to the tie, was a gift from her fellow inhabitant, Tewi Inaba, a small carrot pin, she had pale lavender hair which flowed down to just below her shoulders, and atop her head, were a pair of tall, wrinkled rabbit ears that looked like a pair of socks more than anything else, She was walking towards a small building to the side of Eintei, with a sign that said "Eintei Pharmaceuticals."
For most people, this was a place of salvation from even the most deadly of diseases, provided they came on time, but for the girl – Reisen- it was a place of utter despair. Having to Label every bottle of medicine so carefully, that if it were even a millimeter off, she would receive "punishment" from her master, the Brain of the Moon, Eirin Yagokoro, atop many other things, 'twas not that Reisen didn't like the work or her master, was simply that the workload was unbelievable.
" Ugh, humans just keep getting sick," Reisen complained quietly while making her way to the pharmacy "Oh, my head hurts, oh my knees hurt, oh my stomach hurts," she listed as she walked. "They just never stop! Even if I have a headache, I still work, but I don't complain, I don't know why they're so weak..." Reisen said as she finally made her way to the door, when it suddenly opened. "Maybe because a headache to you is as good as a migraine to them, and that's for one of your incredibly small headaches." A new voice said.
Opening the door was a slender woman who looked to be in her mid-20s, despite the braided silver hair that made its way from underneath the red and blue nurse's cap atop her head, down the one-piece similarly designed dress, with the only noticeable difference being constellations on the dress, all the way to the small of her back. "Udonge," Eirin said with a slight glimmer in her eyes, "You're late." All Reisen could do was stand there and watch as her master slowly made her way towards her...
It was a month after the incident with Mokou and Keine, and Kogasa was at it again. Since she eventually grew tired of surprising human and Youkai couples, she went back to scaring individuals. She was surprising (or at least trying to) an old man who was taking a stroll next to the Bamboo forest of The Lost, but she was met with little success.
"Surprise!" Kogasa yelled as she jumped out from behind a bamboo stalk (creative, huh?).
"Eh, what was that?" the old man replied as he squinted, trying to make out the blue figure that suddenly appeared.
"I said…" Kogasa said as she drew in a breath, "SURPRISE!"
"Oh, it's you Kamishirasawa-sensei," The old man concluded (village man, blue person must be Keine) "Nice night for a walk isn't it?"
"Bah, this is getting nowhere," Kogasa muttered as she began waving and walking away.
"A good night to you too, Kamishirasawa-sensei," The old man said as he continued his slow walk.
That was Kogasa's third failure of the night; she couldn't even scare an old man, which of course, was incredibly damaging for her pride. "Humph," Kogasa sniffled as she sat on a rock, "Why can't I scare anyone...?" Kogasa slowly came to tears, until she saw a pink flash in the not so distant forest. "Hm? It must be Tewi... she can give me luck so I can scare someone! She owes me one too..." Kogasa said as she began to take chase after the small pink object in the distance.
Kogasa made good progress, and soon, she caught up to the small child-like entity, which decided to sit on a rock and hum. 'Now's my chance' Kogasa thought as she drew her umbrella. "Kyaaaa!" Kogasa yelled as she used her umbrella's tongue to cover the small thing in spit while, or at least, that what was planned, but gravity didn't like Kogasa, so it decided to take her and her umbrella on a joyride , right onto the forest floor.
"Hah! Got ya now Tewi!" Kogasa yelled as she quickly recovered from her face plant, lifting Tewi up by the collar of her shirt when...
"Take it easy!" A bodied Tewi yukkuri said as it trembled in fear. Meanwhile, Kogasa could have sworn she heard a chuckle in the distance.
"Bah, I've had enough of this!" Kogasa yelled as she threw the Tewi and flew off in a random direction.
"Now, Udonge, what have we learned from this..?" Eirin asked a bruised and slightly bloody Reisen. "Reisen must not be late; Reisen must be on time every day and never be late..." Reisen whispered as she trembled slightly.
"Good girl!" Eirin cooed, "Now, hurry along and take that vat of chemicals back to Eintei, Marisa brought it to me to see what it could do without blowing up the side of her house... again." Eirin pointed to a large grey vat filled to the brim with a suspicious thick liquid that changed from a light blue to a light purple color every so often.
"O-ok, m-m-master..." Reisen said as she limped towards the vat and attempted to lift it. Her knees bent, and her arms wobbled, but she managed to lift the vat she slowly moved towards the entrance with it.
"Remember, Udonge," Eirin said as Reisen slowly made her way out the door, "Spill and we all know what will happen, yes?" Reisen would have shivered, but somehow held it in as Eirin was right there watching her.
'I wonder which would be worse' Reisen thought as she moved a few inches, 'the vat, or master, the vat... or master...'
Kogasa had been flying around aimlessly for a while, and had managed to end up at Eintei, again.
"Hey, it's been awhile since I've been here..." Kogasa mused as she floated around idly, having calmed down since her encounter with the Tewi. As she kept floating, she heard what could only be described as fevered groaning, "..." Kogasa slowly began to blush until she heard a voice groan, "Master..." This of course only caused the blushing to increase tenfold.
However, Kogasa's curiosity overcame her restraint by a factor of 9, so she and her umbrella slowly turned the corner, to see Reisen slowly making her way to Eintei (She was about 2% of the way). "Hm, this looks promising..." Kogasa thought as she slowly floated towards Reisen.
"Almost there..." Reisen said as she managed to move another few inches, when Kogasa began to slowly walk behind her, catching up very quickly as Reisen's ambulatory speed was incredibly slow. Reisen looked down to attempt to catch a breath, when she saw a shadow that was not unlike half a circle, with a large hole similar to an eye, scared, she was about to turn around when..."SURPRISE!" Kogasa yelled as loud as her Karakasa lungs would let her.
In a rush of adrenaline, Reisen shrieked and threw up the vat above the two, causing it to turn upside down and dump all of its contents on the two, causing them to run around screaming.
"AH! WHAT IS THIS?!" Kogasa yelled as she ran in circles, "I DON'T KNOW!" Reisen shouted as she was on a direct intersecting course with Kogasa, causing the two to end up in a mess of tangled limbs.
Eirin and the residents of Eintei had come out to see what all the yelling was about, and Eirin was the first to respond, "My, Udonge, I didn't know you were into this kind of stuff," Eirin said with a slight chuckle as a few rabbits manage to untangle the two.
"What? No, no, no it's not like that master! "Reisen said as she sat up with Kogasa right next to her, eliciting a raucous laughter from everyone. " Sure it isn't Inaba," Kaguya said as she lifted her sleeve to hide her mouth while chuckling.
"Why me..." Reisen groaned as the laughter only continued, showing no signs of stopping.
"Ah, so she's been seen around Eintei?" Sanae said as she finished talking to Keine, "Ok, thank you Kamishirasawa- sensei," Sanae said as she flew away. 'So that's why I haven't been able to find her, " Sanae said with a small glimmer in her eyes. "Just you wait, Kogasa, I'll get you yet!"
Kweh, forgot to put this, eheh, anyways, requests are always welcome in review or PM form, so please, send your request for any 'victim' you want, and I'll make an attempt to make the story funny for all the lil Kogasa fans out there. Anyways, Sanae's slow, isn't she? Took her a month to find out where Kogasa's been sighted, maybe it's the shrine upkeep, I blame Suwako.
