However, before she could raise her arm to get in the needed position she noticed that she could no longer move her right hand and soon her entire right arm was rendered useless to her. That is when Satsuki noticed just how detailed her hand was as a marionette. Each finger was now several pieces and connected at the "knuckles" with metal joints. Satsuki then messes with her right hand with her left and discovers that even though it was made of wood, strangely enough, her hand still had the full range of motion it had just a few minutes ago but it could no longer move on its own anymore. Satsuki then messed with her arm and saw that it also seemed to retain the same degree of motion it had when a few minutes ago.
When Satsuki tried to move her left arm off her right she found that too gave out leaving both her arms useless. Then she found out that both her legs were no longer under her control making so she could no longer move. She sighed as trying to get her wooden appendages to move would be useless as when she tried to move her right arm after she lost control of it.
'Okay so I can not call the miko but I at least need someone here to tell them what happening to me' Satsuki thought as then maybe they could go get the miko so she could undo this curse before it was too late. She wanted to get out of this wedding but she did not want to be through become a wooden marionette.
The black hair girl then started yelling for help again and again but no one answered her calls also as if she was the only one here at the moment.
'Why is not anyone coming to help me' Satsuki thought as while she did not want to be she was to become the lady of this castle. She did not want to be some lifeless marionette that could only move when someone else made her. The numbness that claimed her arms and legs had already passed her torso and chest so she could no longer breath nor could she hear her heart beat anymore which was beat a mile a minute since this had started. Though her heart and lungs had stopped working for some reason she was still alive and able to talk.
'I really hope this is just temporary' she thought trying to raise her neck and head as high as she could and made some last attempt to call for help though those ended up just like her last set of cries for help useless and unheard as the transformation covered her head and her face turned expressionless and she just blankly stared at nothing with blank and vacant red eyes that no longer showed any signs of awareness to them. Satsuki had reduced to nothing but a perfect wooden facsimile of herself.
Instead of black hair girl who had just woken up and was wearing her wedding dress, now stood a marionette of the same girl wearing the dress instead. The only part of Satsuki that was not transformed was her black hair, once cut however it would never grow again as the hair might still be real it was not alive anymore and thus could not grow. Some after her transformation was complete her chest area started to glow and her bra broke as a reddish black sphere about the size of her fist fell to the ground with a thump, rolled from under dress, and then came to stop once it hit the wall under her bed.
Some time had passed since Satsuki's transformation completed itself. Azami came back into the room and smiled as the curse had taken effect just as she knew it would though as the person she had got the curse from was master at what they did.
"This is what you get for as Kazuo should be with me," the brown hair girl said then took hold of Satsuki's left hand. Although she did a good job of hiding it she too did not want this wedding to happen and wanted Satsuki taken out of the picture, so Kazuo would marry her.
"Stop hitting yourself, oh that's right you can because you're nothing more than a stupid puppet now" Azami laughed as she made Satsuki slap herself with her own hand.
Before she could do anything else to the helpless Satsuki there was a knock at the window and standing there was red hair boy around their age dressed in a cloak that allowed him to blend in with his surroundings like a chameleon.
"Thanks for giving me that curse," she said as open the window to allow them to walk and looked over the wooden Satsuki.
"No problem you have what you wanted and I have what I wanted," the guy named Kang said as smiled, and said a few magic words and the bride's maid felt her body go stiff.
"What are you doing I thought that we had a deal I help you turn Satsuki into a marionette and thus give me a shot to steal her husband," the brown hair girl said. She had lied to Satsuki about the wedding being delayed. In truth, she had really overslept and was really keeping everyone waiting at the church which explained why there was no one there to answer her calls for help. When she had come by it was to tell her that the wedding was delayed but in reality, she had volunteered to go and see what the hold up was.
"While it is true that we did agree to work together on turning your best friend or former best friend into one of my marionettes however I never said anything about what would happen afterward. That is where you jumped to a conclusion thus leading us to have this conversation. However, what did you think would happen as the fact that I am a demon is a secret and did you really think that I would allow someone who would willingly agree to help to add their best friend to my collection over some guy to keep my secret" Kang said as then began to chuckle at how stupid she had been.
"You bastard you lied to me. You will get yours in hell you son of…." Azami said but never finished as she became exactly like her friend nothing more than a perfect wooden facsimile of herself.
With that, the only living being left in the room was the red hair demon as both Satsuki and her best friend were nothing more than life size wooden marionettes.
