The Touhou characters and settings are respectively belongs to ZUN! He's an awesome guy. Long live ZUN!
Leo, my character belongs to me.
I try to make this fanfic compelling and good enough for the readers to read it and also I'm trying to keep the Touhou characters originality by using their canon personalities to make this story more... Original I guess. Heh. :) ANd yes, I know this is a self-insert fic but at least give me a little chance, okay? :D
Anyway, please enjoy the story and leave a comment! Peace! :D
A little warning, its an OC VS a youkai OC fight! I haven't see a Kushi-Sake-Onna type of youkai in any Touhou game, so why not make yourself, right? What's a Kuchi-Sake-Onna youkai you ask?
Go to and search it there. Or read the first part of this chapter. :D Researching Youkai types are really fruitful in this one!
Another side note, this chapter will concentrate on mostly Leo. Anyway, enjoy today's chapter!
Chapter 6 - SUDDEN AWAKENING
The horror we saw really caught us off guard. Her grin was from ear to ear, covered in a bloody gash. "Am I pretty now?" She began walking closer to us. Kenta backs away quickly and pulls my arm. "Let's speed it, bro!" He pulled me away from her but as we were running, I could see her starts chasing us down and started to fire these bloody-red bullets in a strange pattern. "Crap! Crap!" Kenta ran as fast as he could before he took a wrong step, tripping us over by accident. We both fell on the ground and Kenta quickly got up. "Come on! Come on!" He helps me up but our running was futile. The bullets starts hitting the area around us, explosions occurs and debris flying everywhere. The woman stood there, with the same creepy grin. "Am I still pretty?" Kenta was angry and yelled out his answer. "You are a hideous woman!" I believe that's the wrong answer and we're going to die because of that answer. The woman continued her grin and began charging towards us. We started running again but I couldn't catch up with Kenta as my asthma starts kicking in. I stopped to take an instant breather as Kenta waits up for me. "Come on bro!" I took a deep breath before continuing running. The woman fires out another barrage of bullets at us. I stopped again as I started to lose my stamina. Kenta was scared that we couldn't even make it. The woman then appears in a distance and still giving that evil grin at us. She then fires more bullets on us in a huge pattern. I was stunned by this beautiful yet deadly bullets coming towards us. I realize that the bullets are actually targeting Kenta so I quickly pushed him out of the way but that wasn't a smart move. Some of the bullets hits me on the right side of my torso. Kenta was shocked by my actions and carried me to safety before the woman starts shooting again. He stopped behind a giant tree and slowly puts me down. "You idiot! Why did you do that?!" I sighed and kept myself in silence. I know that was a reckless move but I got no other choice. I have to keep us both alive or we'll be that woman will have our heads served in a silver platter. I clutched on my right torso, trying to ease the burning sensation in it. It feels as if a hot metal ball just got thrown towards you and hits you right on the sides. I hissed in pain and tries to ease it by calming myself down.
The woman began firing bullets everywhere, burning some of the trees down. I slowly got up and told Kenta that he should go and leave me. He refuses and told me that he shouldn't leave a friend behind. For a cocky guy, he seems to be care about others. But I wouldn't want him to get hurt. I quickly pushed him away and told him to go as I quickly ran off, showing myself in the open. "Come on! Show me what you got!" Great. Now I'm the cocky bastard. Talk about karma. The woman began to fire more bullets towards me as I know there is no hope left for me. I accept my death now. Until I remembered about Reimu and Marisa. They've tried their best to help me go back. If I die now, that means all of their efforts will meant nothing. I look up and saw the bullets coming closer. I quickly ran aside, dodging through the gaps between the patterns. She then started fires again and this time, the pattern was different. I tried dodging it again but some of the bullets hits my left arm, ripping the left side of my shirt. I began to moan in pain as the fiery sensation burns into my skin and muscles. I tried my best to get up and stood there, shaking in fear. I realize that my actions are reckless and selfish. I sighed and accepted defeat. The woman fires one last bullet barrage towards me and all I did is just stood there, accepting my fate.
Then, I could hear my heartbeat stopped. I took a good look around only to find out I was in a dark void. Is this the same dark void earlier? I placed my palm on my chest, only to find out my heartbeat stopped. Weirdly enough, I could still breathe. Then I could hear my voice again. It's calling out for me. As I walk towards the voice, my surroundings turns misty. Is this dejavu all over again? If so, this is a painful sequence to be repeated. I continue to walk towards my voice and saw a bright light in a distance. I began to pick up what my voice actually said. "Do you really want to die or live?" That question strucks into my mine. If I die, that means all of this search are just a waste of time. I need to know more. Yes. I need to know more. I looked up into the light. "Live." Then the light grew brighter. I couldn't see what was in that light but then I heard a whisper. "Live until the last drop of your life essence. The answer will wait for you in the last essence of your life." Wait what? Then, I heard loud explosions as if they're in front of me.
I slowly open my eyes and to my surprise, I didn't get hit by the bullets. I saw a light green aura was glowing around me. The woman eyes widen as her bullets aren't effective on me. This aura... Is it my barrier? I began to raise my arms and concentrate. I know I could do at least an attack or something. I then felt a cold wind twirls around my arms. I look up and saw bullets were spawning over my head. Are these even mine? I look at the woman and sighed. "Eat this!" I threw my arms down as if I was throwing something and the bullets shoots towards the woman. The woman was hit but she was still standing. I knew this is going to be a hard fight.
3RD POV ======= Leo began concentrating his energy in his arms again and flails his arms like crazy, spawning bullets repeatedly in the same pattern. The woman managed to move away and starts giggling. Leo began to feel chills running down his spine. She pulls out what seems to be a card of some sort then in a distorted voice, she chants out a name. "Outer Beauty. Blood Of Desires."
Bullets started appearing in certain number of patterns around her and all of the bullets are moving quicker than usual towards Leo. Kenta's eyes widen and screams out to Leo. "Leo, its a spell card attack! Run!" Leo turns to Kenta and was surprised. "Spell what now?!" The bullets breaks Leo's barrier and made him flew back a bit. Leo starts flailing his arms like crazy, only to shoot his bullets in the same specific pattern. He stops flailing and dodges a few of the bullets before he got hit right in the chest. The bullet's force was so powerful that he flew off and hit back first into a tree. He slumped down and tries to get back up. His clothes are all ripped and the pain in his chest gives him a hard time to breathe. "No! Leo!" Kenta ran towards him and tries to help him up. "Dammit... What went w-wrong...?" Leo got up and tries to confront the woman again. "Leo! Stop! You're hurting yourse-" Before Kenta could even finish his sentence, an explosion from a bullet hits the tree right next to him. Leo limps towards the woman and tries to give it another shot. To his luck, the spell card sequence were overtimed and the sequence broke off. He thinks that this is his chance so he began moving his arms like crazy as his bullets flying towards the woman without any patterns whatsoever. Some of the bullets manage to hit the woman but that woman still stand strong. Leo continues flailing like crazy until his arms grew tired. He stopped and looks at the woman who was still holding her ground.
He began to grew tired of all the flailing and starts to run towards her. As the woman was about to begin her attack again, Leo punches her in the face, only to realize that the physical attack wasn't effective on her. The woman grins and pins Leo onto the ground. She pulls out a small blade under her fan and giggles maniacally. "Am I beautiful yet?" Her question was still the same but Leo didn't answer her. The woman gave laughs and was about to stabs Leo with the blade before Leo raised his fingers and aim it as if it was a gun on the woman's head and concentrate his fire. He then fires a large laser right through her head while on the same time the woman stabs Leo right in the shoulder. The woman was only weakened. As she tries to pull another spell card attack, Leo aims his finger towards her and shoots her directly with a small laser beam to the head. The woman then slumps to the ground and stopped moving. Leo chuckles and smiles. "I... I did it..." He then fainted right on the spot he was standing on. Kenta saw his body fell and ran towards him. "Buddy?! Bro, get up! Leo! Dammit!" Kenta panicked and yelled out for help. He carries Leo to the nearest hospitality if he finds one.
LEO POV ======= I opened my eyes slowly and take a look around my surroundings. I'm back into this dark void again. I took a deep sigh and walk towards the nothingness that was right in front of me. "Time passes quick." I heard that. That was my own voice. I walk towards it and saw the other me, sitting on a bench in the middle of nothingness. "Time passes so quick, we didn't realize it." What does he mean? "From time to time, I realize that my life is more boring than everyone else." I stood there and glares at him. Or in this case, me. I began asking him what did he actually meant. He grins at me and stood up. "My so jealous of everybody. Kenta's a rich bastard. He could have everything that he likes." I just shook my head.
"I'm not jealous. That's a normal thing for me." The other me just grins at me. "That's what you say. You're jealous of your friends having girlfriends and rich people. You're even jealous at the success of other people. All you could do is just give a plastic smile to them." I was stunned by this exposition. He seems right about it. All I did is just smile for others though I am filled with envy towards others.
"That... Is the sin of Envy, my friend." The other me smirks. Then, my heartbeat skips and woke me up. Where am I now?
