A. N. Where has my sanity gone? I'm writing this at 4 AM...
The Pokémon Only Gensokyo Knows
Kourindou
"OK, are we all settled in? Good." Alice said, sipping a cup of tea which Rinnosuke had grudgingly made.
"OK, so what are these 'Bonéka' you battle with?" Wes asked, getting right to the point.
"Kirisame here," Alice said, pointing at Marisa, "likes to go on frequent raids of a certain magician's library. This magician didn't like that, and created the Bonéka of herself and her comrades to defend the books when she came a-calling. It worked at first. Then Marisa obtained a book on how to make them, and came to me to understand it."
"Yep, because Alice knows a lot more about the ins and outs of magic than me, ze." Marisa said.
"She created an army of the things... ones of all of us at the time. We're STILL not quite sure how some were created, though. People came here after this, and there are Bonéka to match." At this point, the door opened, and a Bonéka came in. Oh, you have GOT to be kidding me. Wes mentally facepalmed. It looked like him! It even had a miniature Snag Machine on the arm! The Bonéka walked up to him, and just stared.
"...Don't look at me,ze. I've got no idea." Marisa mumbled. Alice was a little taken aback too. "...Well, this just proves my point about Bonéka appearing in the image of someone who wasn't around at the time... I think it wants to come with you..."
Rinnosuke slapped down a couple of Miko Orbs. "Here, use these. I don't really know how this one can fight, but..."
After the Bonéka was safely stored away in a Miko Orb, Alice continued. "So anyway, Kirisame rushed the library with the army. She slowly eliminated the magician's Bonéka. These weren't one on one, it was total warfare. The magician, sensing what was happening, used an attack which blew them all away. Some even found their way to your world, Shades. Can I get your name, by the way? I'm sick of these nicknames. We're on your side here..."
"My name's Wes. I don't really have a last name." Wes replied, deciding that it probably wouldn't hurt to give out his name.
"Anyway, you'll find Nue at the Myouren Temple. That's where she lives. Good luck, and try not to die!" Alice said, rising to leave.
"Myouren Temple's pretty far away." Marisa stated. "If you can't fly, it would take you a week to get there. You wouldn't last that long. Night time is dangerous here... We need to get you a jetpack or something and that means we need to see the kappa."
A.N. Yeah, this chapter's short. Last chapter was long and I'm writing this at 4 AM... So next time, they meet Nitori to see about a flying device. Also, the title is a reference to the manga "The World Only God Knows".
