Hey everyone, I'm baaaack!
I am so sorry for the long absence of stories, for some reason I'm just not in the mood as I was before when writing these, but I am going to try to get back into these stories.
So I said last chapter that I would be doing some filler chapters, but I think that was the main problem, that they didn't go with the plot and I didn't get in the mood to do them and I couldn't get them to work. So we're back in the main storyline, and this will be the final chapter before we get into the last arc of this story. So without further ado, enjoy.
In the depths of the Yo-Kai World, the shadow was currently looking through her staff and was currently watching a human girl, but she didn't have a Yo-Kai Watch. The shadow was instead interested on the close feelings she holds towards Nate, "Interesting."
Kin and Gin then teleported into the room, "Motojime-sama, we have done your request."
"So have they accepted my offer," it said to the two.
"They did not give an immediate response, they wish to think it over," Kin said.
"Hmph, well while they ponder over my offer, I believe I have made a discovery that may prove useful," it said.
"What have you discovered?" Gin inquired.
"Behold," it said as it waved its staff over the murky water and it showed the girl it was watching earlier. "This human girl intrigues me, and while she doesn't have a watch she instead envies the relationship that the two watch holders hold."
"What do you plan to do with this girl?" Kin asked.
"Excellent question my loyal servant, allow me to explain."
*In the human world*
Lilly was currently in her room thinking about how to get together with Nate, "Think Lilly think, there has to be way to get him to like you."
But in the back of her mind, she was getting thoughts that her relationship was never meant to be. She began thinking this when she saw how close Nate was to Katie, and how she was the same towards him. She couldn't help but feel that she had no chance, "Do I even mean anything to him?"
"More than you think," she heard a voice answer.
She looked around her room for the source but found nothing, "Who's there."
She then saw everything become dark and a large shadow was starting to form in her room. She backed away in fear until she hit the wall.
"Do not be afraid, I am here to help," it said in a menacing tone.
"Who are you?" Lilly asked in a frail tone.
"Who I am is not important, what is important is why I am here," it answered, "And that is to help you."
"Help me with what?" She inquired.
"Help you win the heart of Nate Adams, there is more to this situation than you think," it replied.
"What do you mean?"
"Tell me Lilly, do you know why Nate adores Katie Forester instead of you?" it asked.
Lilly looked down with a depressed expression, "Probably because he likes her instead of me."
"It is because he is being forced to," the shadow stated.
This got Lilly's attention, "What do you mean he's being forced to do like her?"
"Look and you shall see," it said as it lowered its staff for Lilly to see in the orb.
What she saw was the watch that Katie has on her neck all the time. "Her watch?" she said confused.
"This is no ordinary watch Lilly; it's enchanted so that whoever wears it is loved by the one the wearer loves," the shadow informed.
"Enchanted, but that's impossible, there's no such thing as magic," Lilly said doubtfully.
"Yet there is a shadow in your room with a staff that just showed you her watch," it said in a know-it-all tone, "There is more to this world than you ever known."
Lilly was doubtful at first but the more she thought about it, all made sense to her. If Katie was using magic to have Nate fall for her, than Lilly has to stop it, "How do we stop her?"
The shadow grinned at her acceptance, "You must get the watch away from her, after you have it bring it to me and I'll destroy it, freeing Nate from the enchantment and he'll be yours."
"Ok but how do I get the watch from her; she has it on her neck all the time?" Lilly inquired.
"Take this," the shadow said as it gave Lilly a small stone.
"A stone... really?" she said doubtfully.
"Remember what I said, there is more to this world than you ever known," it said, "That stone will stop time long enough for you to get the watch and bring it to me."
"Stop time," she said amazed.
"You only have one chance Lilly, make it count," the shadow said as it started to melt into the floor and her room was back to normal.
She looked at the stone she held and gripped it with a determined face, "Just you wait Katie, I'll free Nate from your spell and he'll be mine."
*At the park*
Katie, along with Frostina as usual, was leaning back on a tree and relaxing. As she relaxed, she thought over about what's been going on for the past couple of days, with Casanuva and her being sent back in time.
"Wonder how things are going to get weirder from now on," she said to herself.
"Did you say something Katie?" Frostina asked.
"Nothing important, just thinking about what has happened lately," she replied.
"Oh yeah, things have been getting crazy," Frostina said.
"Yep, makes you wonder what else will happen," Katie said.
"In the world of Yo-Kai, anything can happen," Frostina informed.
"Well the good thing about it is that I'm getting closer with Nate," Katie said.
"It's only a matter of time until you two become a couple," Frostina informed.
"I hope so," Katie said as she blushed from the thought of her and Nate being a couple.
From the distance, Lilly was seen hiding behind a tree and was watching Katie, "Alright Katie, your trick ends now." She took out the stone and held it out in front of her expecting something to happen, but nothing.
"Um… activate… hocus pocus… abracadabra… bibbidi bobbidi boo?" she said but nothing happened, "Ugh this thing is broken, that shadow gave me a dud."
She threw the stone in the air in frustration, but then it started to shine brightly. Next thing she knew, Lilly saw the sky darken and she saw how everything froze. Leaves that had fallen were trapped in midair, Frisbees were stuck in midflight, and nobody moved like they were manikins.
"No way, it actually worked," she said shocked from what had happened. She looked up at the stone and saw that it was slowly cracking, "Oh no I better hurry."
She ran to where Katie was frozen at, "Your control on Nate ends now." She took the watch off her neck and was about to leave when she noticed that she still got time before the stone broke. "Oh I can't resist this," she grinned evilly as she took out a marker.
*1 minute later*
Finished with what she was doing, Lilly saw that the stone was almost about to break, "I got to go now." She was about to run when she saw something on the floor next to Katie.
She bent down and saw it was a coin that had a coin with a sailor suit on it, "What's this, it seems to go with this watch?" Looking back at the stone and seeing that it was about to break, she put the coin in her pocket and ran out of the park, just in time as the stone shattered.
Everything reverted back to normal and everything was unfrozen. Katie was still relaxing when she felt some weight off her neck. She looked and saw that her watch was gone.
"What the, Frostina the Yo-Kai Watch is gone!" she exclaimed.
"What?!" Frostina exclaimed before she was stunned from Katie's face, "Umm Katie."
"What is it?" Katie asked.
"Umm... there's something on your face," Frostina informed.
Confused, Katie took out a mirror and looked at it and looked in horror from what she saw. Her face was covered with marker drawing, including a mustache, a black eye, and even side burns.
"AAAHHHHHH!"
*With Lilly*
Lilly was just entering her house when she heard Katie's scream and she smirked, "Looks like she saw what I left." She went up to her room and was thinking of how soon she and Nate will be together. She then started to get impatient for the shadow to come, "Where is that shadow, I want this darn watch gone."
She laid on her bed waiting when the coin she got fell out of her pocket. She picked it up and inspected it, "What is this thing?" She looked at the watch and saw that there was a slot that seemed like a perfect size for the coin. "What happens if I put it in here?" She inquired as she was about to put the coin in the slot.
Just as she was about to, her room darkened and the shadow arose from her floor, "I see you have completed your task."
"It's about time you got here," Lilly stated.
"Apologies, but let us get to the task at hand," the shadow said as it raised its hand, "The watch."
Lilly was about to hand it the watch, when curiosity got the best of her, "Before we do that, can I ask something?"
"What?" the shadow said annoyed.
"You know about this watch right, then what does this coin have to do with it?" Lilly asked showing the coin.
The shadows eyes widened at the sight of the coin, "Where did you get that?"
"Katie had it and I took it when I grabbed the watch," Lilly informed, "What is it?"
The shadow had a worried expression, before it turned to a wicked grin, "I'm glad you got a hold of that Lilly, that coin is another magical item that Katie uses."
"It is?" Lilly asked.
"Katie didn't get a hand of this watch on her own, she had help," it said, "That coin calls upon of her helpers when it's inserted into the watch."
"If it calls on them, then why are you glad I got it?" she asked confused.
"Once Katie finds out the watch is gone, she'll find a way to contact them and get her a new watch, but since we have the ability to call them, we can make sure they don't help her again," it said.
"Ah I get you," Lilly said smiling as wickedly as the shadow, "So what do we do?"
"Insert the coin in the watch, and I'll deal with the rest," it said.
Lilly nodded as she got the watch ready, "Let's do this." She inserted the coin into the watch and was expecting something, but instead she got…
"Nuh-uh-uh," the watch said as nothing happened.
Lilly was confused from what had occurred, "Um… what's going on?"
The shadow was equally confused as it inspected the watch, and then it saw the problem. "You put the coin in the wrong way," it pointed out.
Lilly looked at the watch and saw the coin was placed upside down in the slot, "Oops, my bad." She took it out and put it back in the right way.
The watch started to glow as the arms began to spin.
Summoning, Charming!
*With Katie*
After returning home and wiping the last of the marker off her face, Katie was in her room thinking about what happened to the Yo-Kai Watch. "How could it just disappear like that, one minute it's on me and the next it's not?"
"Something's not right; maybe it was a Yo-Kai that took it?" Frostina suggested.
"But wouldn't her watch glowed and alerted her?" Sailornyan inquired after joining in on the conversation.
"Hey Shadow, you got any ideas?" Katie asked.
There was no response and her closet was quiet.
"Guess he's not in a talking mood," Frostina concluded.
"Well I'll fix that, nyo crew member of mine is slacking off while the rest are busy," Sailornyan said as she headed towards the closet. She was about to open it before a pink vortex appeared above her.
"What is that?" Katie asked surprised.
"That's the vortex that calls us whenever you use our medals," Frostina explained, "But what's it doing here?"
Before anyone could say anything else, Sailornyan started to get sucked into it, "Nya what the, somebody help!"
Frostina grabbed her paw and tried to pull her away, only to get sucked in the vortex along with Sailornyan. The vortex disappeared, leaving Katie confused, "… what just happened?"
*With Lilly*
Alarming!
Boom boom walla walla!
Dance dance!
Charming!
Sailornyan?
Sailornyan appeared from the watch, along with Frostina who was still holding her paw.
"Where are we?" Frostina asked.
Sailornyan looked around and saw the shadow which was glaring at them, "What in the world is that?!"
They backed away until they reached the bed. "What are these things?" Lilly asked, causing them to look up.
"Lilly?!" Frostina exclaimed.
Sailornyan was instead focused on what Lilly was holding, Katie's Yo-Kai Watch. "So you're the thief that stole the watch, I'll make you pay for stealing from my crew!" she exclaimed.
"Silence you pests!" the shadow exclaimed, "It is time that I take care of you." Its staff started to glow as it launched a dark beam at the two. While Sailornyan was freaking out, Frostina responded with creating an ice wall blocking the beam.
The wall shattered, causing ice shards to fly across the room and Lilly frantically moving to not get hit. "Think you can take care of them without trying to kill me in the process!"
"Do not talk to me in that tone human!" it exclaimed as it prepared another beam.
However, it was interrupted when Frostina fired ice shards at the shadow, "Sailornyan grab the watch and let's get out of here!"
"Right," Sailornyan nodded as it went for Lilly, "Give back that watch this inyastant!"
"Forget it, get you paws off it," Lilly said as she and Sailornyan started struggle for the watch.
The shadow fired another beam, which Frostina countered with another ice wall that shattered. Shards flew as one came near Lilly and it was close enough for her to scream and let go of the watch.
"Alright I got it, nyow let's get," Sailornyan said.
Frostina nodded as they got past the shadow and jumped out of the window. The shadow attempted to fire one last beam at the two, but it missed its target as they were long gone.
The shadow growled menacingly as it turned towards Lilly, "You lost the watch; it's your fault that they got away!"
"Me, you're the one who said to call them here!" she retorted.
"Do not patronize me human, it seems I must deal with this matter myself," it said as it sank into the floor and vanished.
Lilly huffed in frustration, "I can't believe I was this close to getting with Nate and it was taken from me, but now I know how Katie attracts him. Watch out Katie, because I know your secret."
*With Katie*
Five minutes passed after the vortex took Sailornyan and Frostina and Katie was just confused on what was going on. "I have no clue about any of this," she sighed.
As she said that, Sailornyan and Frostina barged into the room out of breath. "That… was… too close," Frostina said between breaths.
"Guys what happened to you two?" Katie asked.
"When we got sucked into that vortex, we arrived at Lilly's room," Sailornyan explained, "After that we just escaped some shadow trying to hurt us. Also we got this back." She took out the watch and handed it back to Katie.
"The Yo-Kai Watch, you mean Lilly had it?" Katie inquired putting it back on.
"Yeah, and she had helped, I got a bad feeling about this," Frostina said as the rest nodded in agreement.
*In the depths of the Yo-Kai World*
The shadow growled in anger at its failure, it had the chance to destroy the watch but instead chose to call upon the Yo-Kai to torture them for siding with the human. "I was so close, but I got cocky, I mustn't make that mistake again."
"Motojime-sama," Kin and Gin said as they entered the room.
"What is it?" it asked.
"They have responded to your offer," Gin said.
This interested the shadow, "And?"
"They accept," Kin answered.
The shadow grinned wickedly, "Excellent, then the time has come, soon victory shall be ours!" It cackled as it echoed the room.
*With Inaho*
Inaho was currently inspecting a board with line connecting to various pictures. "Just who are these two?"
Meanwhile, USApyon was laying on her bed in boredom, "Inaho we've been looking into those two for days and we haven't found anything about them. Let's just give up, it's pointless."
"Of course you would give up, but I'm not one to quit on a case," she said determined.
She then heard a knock coming from her door, "Who could that be?" she asked and she opened it. There was nobody there; instead there was a yellow folder with a note on it. She took the note and read it.
'Be careful when looking into these two, things are about to get much more weirder than what your used to. – Crafter Z'
"Who's Crafter Z?" she asked as she looked into the folder. Her eyes widened from the contents, "This is it, this is the breakthrough I need!"
"The breakthrough that we need!" USApyon corrected.
"Oh no, you chose to give up, this is all for me, you dumb otter," she said.
"You little…" USApyon growled as he pressed the buttons on the side of his helmet. His helmet sealed up and was filled with black smoke, before two red eyes appeared.
VADER MODE!
He grabbed his blaster and started to shoot rapidly in random directions, which Inaho frantically moved around to avoid getting hit.
"What did I do this time?!"
