Foot-town, HE-HO! Family Mark
"Thank you for your patronage, ma am!" the red head ponytail women shop keeper said to the raven haired girl with headphones.
"Welcome," Tiki-P said simply and took the bag of honey glazed doughnuts. She turned around to face Itsuki who is reading a magazine. "Oi, Itsuki I'm done, you can lead me backstage now that I got what I came for."
He slowly lowered the magazine and looked at her with a narrow-eyed look. This girl as took off moments ago to get her doughnuts "Well I hope it's worth it because I looked everywhere to find you."
"I did text you that I was at the main observatory."
"Yeah, only by the last minute." He said.
Tiki=Waifu shrugged "Apologize but I'm here with you now."
"Thankfully." he sighed. "Alright come on let's go." He and Tiki=Waifu walked out the store.
"Hey, Itsuki!" Girls voice call out.
Both Itsuki & Tiki=Waifu stop to look at a school girl with short length raven hair with pigtails ran up to them at the entrance. Itsuki reckons who that girl is, Kanae Urabe, Itsuki's classmate, and fortune teller.
"Kanae, um, pleasant surprise," he said.
"Who's the girl?" Tiki=Waifu ask.
"Just my classmate from school, Kanae. Kanae Tiki-P." He introduces. The girls said their hellos and shook hands.
"Hey, Itsuki you don't mind if I speak with you for a moment?" The school girl ask.
"Yeah of course," he turned to face Tiki=Waifu. "Yeah, yeah, the back stage I got it," the dark haired stoic girl with headphone said and walked away from the pair.
"So Kanae, Is there something you want me to know about?" Itsuki might as well ask his classmate, Kanae Urabe predictions about the Idolaspere has been on point over the time he had worked with her(such as hunting down Mirage and rare animals).
"Just wondering where I can find Tsubasa? I'd like to congratulate her on that dance you agreed." She smiled.
"Is it really a big deal?"
"Well duh, many of us at school are talking about it!" She exclaimed.
"Hmm well you won't be able to see her after she sings on stage, she's on the back stage but I'm not allowed to-"
"It's okay I got a VIP pass!" The girl helped up a green card with the word ' black font. "Ta-dah!" She chirp.
Itsuki's eyes are wide "how did you- oh wait never mind, your lucky fortune?" He inquired.
"Yep! I won it from the he-ho! Lottery!"
"...I see. Well if you got a he-ho! Pass then I guess I'll take you to see Tsubasa." He and singled the grinning school girl to follow him.
Meanwhile at Tokyo Tower's spacial observatory
Family and friends come to the observatory to see the view of the glittering city of Tokyo. Five small children running around the observatory wall the ground ups and other kids watching the view.
"Man the view is great, How about it Elly?" Touma said.
The blond actress crossed her arms "Yeah... well if you even like this stuff anyway." she looked at her cellphone to look at the time, she groaned. "Where is she? She is spouse to be here!"
"Who, Martha?"
"Well duh, who else?" Eleonora exclaimed she pace back and forth. She then spots a familiar blond haired figure in the crowd of people, she raised her hand to get her attention "Hey sis! Over here!"
The blue-eyed young women known as Martha heard her younger sister's voice and walked up to the pair with her hand in her pocket. Martha wore a green sweater with a gray scarf and brown coat and tan dress pants. Martha's blond hair is tied in a ponytail with a blue and black fringe
Eleonora rush for a hug.
Touma waved at her "Martha. Long time no see!" both Eleonora and Martha let go of their embrace.
"Um Touma right? Hello again." she awkwardly smiled.
"W-What? You almost forgot about me!"
Martha interrupted Touma "Yeah, yeah I remember you I was just kidding." she said nonchalantly.
"Wha- well nice you still have a sense of humor..."
Eleonora and Martha both narrowed their eyes at Touma. "Forgive me for my indifference Touma, you've always been my favorite actor to work with."
"Gee thanks." Touma gave Martha a deaden look, I keep forgetting that's she like Yashiro, he thought.
Martha to face her sister "Elly I got to go and meet with Mahiro and Maiko."
"Sure! Maiko-san and Mr. Mahiro is at the backstage, down the bottom! We can take you to them." Eleonora offered hands on hips.
"Wouldn't it be grand," The ponytailed bound commented. "Okay, I'll go with you and Touma." She smiled. Elly nodded in agreement and singled her sister and Touma to follow her.
Foot-Town Rooftop
Daiba TV News broadcast.
"This Is Nomura from Daiba news broadcast to bring you live from Tokyo Tower where fans from all around the world to the celebration of Utaloid Tiki! In just about 10 more minutes Utaloid Tiki will be making her broadcast in front of fans followed by Fortuna's new Music composer, Takana Raijin aka Tiki=Waifu and lastly Oribe Tsubasa, younger sister of the late Oriba Ayaha, will be singing her song!"
The young man named Raidou Kuzuonoha and a young girl named Nah sat on the table, accompanied by a black cat name Gotou, in the dining area, as they watch the big screen hologram message.
Raidou Kuzunoha the XIV wears the uniform of Yumizuki High, with fine pointed dress shoes, a school cap, and a long black cloak with purple inner lining.
He wields a katana on his side, which is very noticeable underneath his cloak, along with a revolver strapped to his right hip. The summoning tubes, or Kuda, used to call forth and store his demons are slotted into white, bandolier-like pockets strapped to his chest.
He has sharp, gray eyes, black hair, and fair, yet pale skin. The edges of his hair also form into very sharp sideburns, and many people comment on the ferocity of them. The hair underneath his hat, however, is unknown.
Nah the pointy eared half-breed Manakete wears a Gothic style white turtle neck ruffle dress with a large white ribbon tied to it. She wore a red close over her shoulders and brown leather gloves. Her red High heels stretch up to her thighs with pink pantyhose and small pink hearts from the tip of her shoes.
She has purple eyes, brown hair, and fair skin. Her hair is waist length, but the back of her hair is braided in two and on the front. Her bridge has done nicely directly over her face. Some peeps could easily miss took Nah to a vampire. But she brushed off those stupid notions from the people of this world.
Nah & Raidou are sipping her tea as they watched the wide screen hologram display talking about Tiki's birthday.
"Hopefully this hologram thingy could bring us a clue about Tiki whereabouts," Nah said.
"Why do you care?" Nah's animal ears twitch a little she turned her attention to the black cat.
The back cat spoke up and hoped on the table to face her. "The Idolasphere is going to open up in the physical world for everyone else to see. Even if we do know where she is you won't be able to find your friend in time before that happens."
"I'm well aware of that." Nah snapped. "I just wanted to see her, that's all. Sure she looks younger now, for some obvious reasons, but still." Nah countered and sipped her tea.
"You'll have to stay focus pretty doll, those Emblian Mirages will be here any moment you know."
The brown haired girl rolled her eyes "What so spacial about this weird looking tower anyway? Other than Mirages & Demons from the Emblian Empire." Nah inquired to the cat, Raidou looked at his cat companion as well.
"A certain ghost-type Mirage with a top-hat told me this rumor about a monster that supposed to awaken inside this tower." Nah's eyes widen in fright.
Raidou sees his younger haft dragon partner's frighten look then back to the cat "Monster? You mean Grima right?" he inquired.
The cat nodded "Correct."
"Why didn't you tell us about this sooner!?" Nah exclaimed, she stopped up from her chair.
"Because I knew you would react that way, I didn't want to spoil your evening doll face and Raidou couldn't keep a secret."
The brown haired girl groaned "This isn't funny Gotou! This is-" she stopped her mid-sentence when she heard the crowd on the roof cheered louder. She turned around to look up at the blue Hologram screen, 3:58 minutes till the #TIKIFES21.
She slid back down to her chair, eyes glued to the screen. Raidou and Gouto glance at each other than to the countdown screen.
"That concert is starting soon, I can't wait!" a random Utaloid fan from the crowd said.
"Yeah, I know! This is going to be epic!"
"Tsubasa-chan is going to sing!"
"I bet Tiki is going to wave at us on the screen."
Nah, watch the crowd's excitement "Tiki sure has some devoted fans... and this girl Tsubasa."
"That girl is unique, for what I here," Raidou spoke up and sip his tea. Nah looked back at her older friend with a questioning look. "Who? That Idol girl?"
The Back-Stage
Tsubasa Oribe took a deep breath, "This is it, I know I keep saying that. Why I keep saying that? Okay, I got this.."
"That's the spirit Tsubasa, never waver!"
The black haired girl jumped and turned around to see Maiko-san and Tiki=Waifu. "Maiko! I didn't know your back here. Are you already done talking to Mr. Mahiro?"
Maiko was still in her favorite Greek inspired dress, "Yep! We talk about the usual partners inquires. How about you, Tsubasa-chan? Are you feeling excited about that dance?"
Tsubasa's face turned red "Maiko this isn't funny, I have to focus on my singing first before I dance with Itsuki-kun!" she wore a white strapless gown, with a silver neckless, white glitter gloves that reach her elbows and a silver tiara on her head.
Maiko laughed "Sorry I tease ya, I couldn't help myself. Anyway, Tsubasa-chan are you ready?"
"Ready then I'll ever be!" Tsubasa said with determination.
Maiko nodded "How about you, Tiki-P? Are ready to shine in the limelight?"
"For my Waifu, of course," Tiki=Waifu said.
One of the stage workers walk up to the trio and said "Miss Maiko, its time."
"Alright dear." the older women turned to the two younger girls and claps her hands together. "Here we go gals!"
#TIKIFES21 live Consort.
The crowd of People cheered, waving their penlights as the saw Fortuna's CEO Maiko Shimazaki walk upstage with her microphone and waved at the crowd.
"Thank you for coming everybody! How do you like #TIKIFES21?"
The crowd cheered louder in replies.
"Thank guys! Also, shout out to Daiba TV and HE-HO! Enterprise for the awesome sponsor! Now we got a special someone who will be broadcast live on the big holographic screen, before Tsubasa's song 'more than just friends, less than lovers!' hint; it's you know who!"
Maiko Shimazaki pause for a sec, then "Ladies and Gentlemen, I like to introduce to you, Tiki!"
The holographic screen showed the green haired young smiling girl, Tiki. The audience clapped and cheered. Maiko clapped as she looks up at the screen with Tiki's face with the bloom palace background.
"Hello, everybody! Thank you so much for being here for my birthday today! I hope all of you have a great time at Tokyo Tower, you guys awesome! The songs you've sent me have been the beast for my birthday!" Tiki said cheerfully.
Meanwhile at the Tokyo Tower observatory
Ayaha pace around the tower's special look out observatory, which is now empty at the moment, in search for the idolasphear portal. She took the opportunity to sneak in here to find and uncover this secret power, wail the people have left to watch the concert.
Ayaha stops and clutched her head, the headache is getting worse.
"You're getting close."
Ayaha's headache has stop "Shut up!"
"No I'm serious, you are getting close."
"Then were? Tell me!" Ayaha snapped. She has been getting this headache problem I the past three days ever since she bared the mark of grima. At first, it was nothing then it got worse, the only upside is that she had gained a certain level of IQ, including the Mirage info, but It's still annoying.
"You're in the right spot. No need to lose your temper, other me."
"You are not-" Ayaha took notice of a red glow coming from her right forehand, which is covered in a glove. "Forget it, I'll open up the gate myself!"
She extended her right hand forward, in a flash of light, the portal to the Mirage world had appeared. Ayaha sighed in relief.
"Impressive, I was about to give you a hint."
"Quite," Ayaha said sternly. She was about to head through the get until she stops "Wait a minute, this isn't right. Do I really need to do this?"
"You're free to decline, however Tokyo Conception... you won't get another chance and you probably die." Ayaha flinched when her inner voice said that.
"Hey miss, what are you doing here?"
The male cop's voice snaps out of her thoughts, the cop in question approach her "Oh! Sorry officer I guess I got lost!" Ayaha said with and innocent voice.
"The observatory is temporary close, miss." Ayaha walked up to the cop, she extends her right hand forward. Blue sparks formed out of her hand.
"Um, a miss is you-" The cop was suddenly thrown to the wall, by an invisible force to his shock, a pink neon circle appeared around the frighten cop "W-what the heck is going on?"
He then looks at the girl who is standing right in front of him, staring at him with glowing red eyes and it made the cop panic. She's a Demon!
"Not enough performa... But it'll do." Ayaha said with a stern expression. She raises her hand, white particles begin to fly out of the frighten cop than to Ayaha's being. After a minute she sucks out the performa from the lifeless body. The cop dropped on the floor, with all eye color gone.
She looked down at the corpse with no emotion. Ayaha raises both hands, blue flames travailed up her body in a flash, and then vanish to reveal her in a different attire. She dons a revealing outfit with a red cloak and long black skirt, her hair becomes purple and her eyes turn red. Lavender markings appear on her face.
Ayaha looked at her right forehand, the mark of Grima glowed red. She felt compelled to press on, she walked to the portal entrance to her right until.
"Hey, you freeze!" Ayaha stopped but didn't even bother to turn around, she can already sense that there are three officers pointing their guns at her. Idiots...
Back to the #TIKIFES21 concert
"Thank you again for all the wonderful nice gift, you guys! I hope you guys look forward to the first ever move I get to star in! Now without further ado I present, TIKI-P" Tiki waved at the audience on screen, it then changes to the stage close up with Tiki=Waifu walking upstage.
Tiki-P happy waved at the crowd as she walks up to the sound booth, she bowed to the audience and sate down on the chair. Tiki-P cracked her fingers and started playing her sounds.
The Music started with a vocal then with a smooth R&B style jazz, with techno & dubstep. Then the crowd waved their green penlights. Blue lights on the stage moved around, including the laser-lights show.
The lights turned yellow as Tiki-P's music reach its peak. White Drones hover over the stage with red lights, then the lights on the stage became lavender.
...
The backstage
"Hey, Tsubasa-chan!"
Tsubasa and Maiko turned around to see "Kanae, Itsuki-Kun? Hold on what is Kanae doing here?"
"She won the HE-HO! VIP contest." Itsuki explains to his friend.
"Well, then congratulations!" Maiko chirped and shak the school girl's hand.
"Psss! Miss Maiko, it's almost time." one of the workers whispered.
"Right! I'll get back to you in a minute, darling!" With that, she heading back to the stage.
"So how are you Tsubasa-chan?" Kanae asks her old classmate.
"Good, I feel good!" The black haired girl said with a heartily laugh. "A little nervous of the dance though."
"You mean with Itsuki-kun, right? So it's like a date huh?"
"A date? I thought it was just a dance partnership." Itsuki said confused.
Tsubasa blinked in surprise "It is! By the way, Itsuki-kun shouldn't you be dress into your black suit? Please for me, you haven't even worn it yet."
"Um, okay, sure, I must have forgotten about that."
"Tsubasa-chan your up!" a female worker said.
"Okay! Wish me luck Itsuki-kun, Kanae-chan!" she said and ran out to the stage. "We will!" both Itsuki and Kanae said.
The People outside cheered as they saw their favorite Idol come out stage and sing her song. Her song voice can be heard backstage.
"Well Kanae, I should be going I'm going to get dress. Could you stay here wail I come back?" Kanae nodded. "Of course Itsuki-kun!"
Itsuki nodded back, he was about to head to the dresser room until "Itsuki-kun wait! I forgot to tell you something!"
He turned back around "Huh?"
"I have a new Idolaspher premonition, it told me of this great danger."
His eyes widen "What, danger?"
She shrugged "I'm not so sure but remember that mass disappearance that happens five years ago, something weird like that will happen again, probably tonight."
Another Mirage invasion? Itsuki thought "Are you sure you're not making this up?"
Her brows frown "I wish I could but don't worry my premonition also said a young foreign goddess, from the 'outer realms', will protect us."
This isn't sound good, if true. Wait... foreign goddess? He thought again "Do you know who's responsible?"
"It's a woman who bears the mark of Grima, whoever that is."
"That name...! Itsuki!" Chrom said to Itsuki through his mind. Itsuki nodded "I see thank you very much Kanae, I'll be sure to look into it." With that, he took off in a hurry to the dresser room.
The dresser room
4 minutes later
"Chrom, what do you make of Kanae's prediction?" Itsuki inquired as looked at his mirror reflection, starting up his black tie.
"The fortune girl mention an imminent Mirage invasion that could happen tonight."
Itsuki put on his tuxedo "That very odd, I mean we already took out Medeus so there should be no Mirage attacks. At least that's what Tiki had told us."
"Ture. However I heard that name Grima before, it is a dragon god that could rip through time and space. At least that what the little white haired girl in the eye-patch told me in my night vision."
"Dragon God?" Itsuki he raises his eyebrow "Hold on, you've mentioned that girl again. Does she know something we don't? I did have that dream of her too."
"Who knows Itsuki. It's best not to jump to conclusions, we have to keep our eyes open for Mirage attacks and then we can report back to Lady Tiki."
"Right, we just gotta keep watch. I'll have to tell the rest as well."
"Correct."
Itsuki heard a knock on the door. "Enter!" the door open to reveal Touma.
"Hey, Istuki! Whoa man, you look great! Definitely ready for that dance!"
"Touma what are you doing here?"
"Just thought I check up on you, to see if you're ready. The concert has already ended. So now it's time to dance!" The flame-haired dude grinned.
"Yep! I'm all set, Touma! Also, I need to talk to you about something."
Shida-park, near the Tokyo Tower
Shida-koen, Minato, Tokyo, 9:33 am
People outside are dancing to the music, (called 'P3 FES'), wail other attendees dine at the food court and games.
Itsuki walks with Touma to the Shida-park they spotted Maiko-san talking to Mr. Mahiro, Eleonora, her sister, Martha, and Mamori.
Maiko spotted Istuki and Touma "Oi! Itsuki-kun, Touma-kun! Can you come here for a minute?"
The boys both shrugged and walk up to the group.
"Wow, you look nice there Itsuki-kun!" Maiko complemented. "Yeah, you look great Itsuki-san!" Mamori cooked. "You look like a Hollywood star with that suit Itsuki." Eleonora winked at him.
"Thank you guys." He smiled.
"Anyway, I like you to meet Martha the writer for the Tiki OVA. Martha, Istuki." The fortuna CEO gestured to the other blond female.
Both Istuki and Martha shake hands "It's nice to meet you, Martha." He smiled. "Likewise. Elly spoke highly of you." She smiled back.
"If you don't mind me asking Martha I hear on the internet that you use to be an Idol and Kiria's Rival, is it true?"
"Where did you hear that from, Forbes? Hah, just kidding. Yeah, I was an Idol five years ago but Kiria had grown to be an unstoppable force, even outrank Rise. I tried to play catch up but it didn't work that well for me in the end." Martha slightly smiled.
"Ah, so you found a new calling. That's Films and Novels right?"
The pony tailed blond women nodded "I remembered my passion for telling the story when I like to tell that story's to my half brothers and sister when they use to be small during bedtime."
Eleonora jumped "Martha! Did you really have to bring it up? It's embarrassing!"
The Aqua blue eyed Martha giggled "Sorry Elly." Eleonora pouted. Maiko and Mamorin along with Touma and Itsuki laughing.
"So anyway Maiko aside from Tsubasa where's Kiria, Yashiro, Tiki-P, and Barry?"
"Kiria, Yashiro, and Tiki-P are at the booth area signing autographs and Barry is busy selling Tiki merch. Any sort of reason?"
He was about to answer but Mahiro and Martha is with them "No reason at all, just wanted to meet them."
Maiko seems to catch on to what he is saying. She nodded and smiled "I see. We I should look for Aya as well, she said she'll meatus here after the show."
"Ayaha?"
"Alright, ladies and Gentlemen Cinderella is in the house ya! It's time for the ball yo!" said the DJ through the mic.
Itsuki turned around to the dance section people in fine clothing begin to dance to the opera music. "Whelp you're up Itsuki!" Touma grinned. "Have fun Itsuki-san!" Mamori cheered
"Knock em dead Itsuki!" Maiko cheered as well.
Itsuki took a deep breath and nodded to the group.
Tsubasa Oribe still in her white strapless gown, she sat on a chair as she watches the People twirl around the dance stage. Her gloved hands twist her white handkerchief "Omg I cant wait longer!" She said nervously.
Someone approached her and coughed in one hand, promoting Tsubasa to jump out of her seat, she glance to her left to see Itsuki in a suit.
"Itsuki-kun! Y-you, look great!" Tsubasa said with a nervous laugh.
"Thanks. I'm ready then you are, Tsubasa."
"Of course I'm ready!" she said and took his hand. "Are you sure?" he ask. "Yes I'm sure!" she reassures. They head to the dance stage, they soon stop at the center.
They turned to face each other, bowed and begin their dance. They slowly twirled around the dance stage, the background lights turned blue as they dance but in Tsubasa mind; she and Itsuki is dancing on blue clouds.
"Wow, this is like a dream come true!" She secretly wanted to go out with Itsuki-kun since forever. Tough it is possible that Kiria-sempai wanted to dance with him too.
Maiko, Mamori, Touma, Martha, Eleonora, and Mahiro watch Itsuki and Tsubasa's dance.
"Psss! Miss Maiko, it's me, Olivia. We have a problem, a big Mirage problem!" Olivia panic though the busty CEO women's mind. Maiko looked up at the night sky "Hmm, a Mirage? What do mean dear?"
"Sir," A man in a suit said to the Daiba TV CEO Mahiro, he glanced to his right to face his assistant. "Hmm, what is it?" said Mahiro.
"We have a possible criminal activate, three of our Officers down at the Tokyo Tower's Special Observatory." the man said. This caught the ear of Maiko.
Old man Mahiro eyes widen under his sunglasses, "What? Did you find the ones who's responsible?"
"No sir, they're still investigating. However they gave me this." the man handed what it appeared to be a white glittered glove to the Daiba TV CEO, "A glove? instructing." he commented. "Hey Maiko, I believe this is yours."
Maiko turned her whole body to face the Daiba TV CEO, he gave her the glove. She covered her mouth in shock. "That's-"
Suddenly wind started to pick up rapidly followed by a huge tremor, everyone at the park felt it. "What's going on?" Mamori was speaking up frighten. "EARTHQUAKE!" Touma panic.
"No just a Mirage problem!" Maiko shouted. "What? That can't be right we slay a dragon and save the world!" Eleonora said, trying to stand her ground and not fall.
After a minute the tremors and the gust of wind stopped.
"Is everyone okay? How about you sis?" Martha ask. The Fortuna group including Mahiro and his assistant nodded. "I'm going take Mr. Mahiro and Mr. Mako some place safe." She announces.
"Alright, you stay out of trouble now," Maiko said. "Yeah, watch yourself, sis," Eleonora said worriedly.
"Tsubasa are you okay?" Itsuki asks worriedly of his friend, he extended his hand.
The black haired girl took his hand to pull her up. "Other than my hurt bottom, I'm alright." and I was having a good time too... stupid Mirages why do they have to ruin my great time with Itsuki-kun?
"Oi! Itsuki, Tsubasa over here! We got trouble!" The both heard Touma's voice they nodded to his direction.
"Let's go Tsubasa." he said and took off.
"Right." she sighed sadly and followed him
"Are you guys all right?" Itsuki said as he and Tsubasa ran up to Maiko, Eleonora, Touma and Mamori.
"Where fine Itsuki, but we have a much bigger problem-" Touma said.
"Where's Aya? Is she still not with you Maiko-san?" Tsubasa asks angerly. Both Itsuki and Touma looked at her with a questioning look.
"Unfortunately she's not here. But she left this around at the observatory," Maiko said and gave the glove to Tsubasa.
Tsubasa examine the empty glove, her eyes widened and face her boss, she was about to say something before.
"Maiko-san!" Kiria shouted as she, Yashiro, TIKI-P and Barry ran up to the rest of the Fortuna group. Kiria eyed the glove, Tsubasa was holding in her hands, and Tsubasa looks at her back.
"Ayaha's is missing is she?" She gripped at her boss Maiko. Her boss nodded "She haven't texted me back yet, so I'm afraid so."
"Where did she go?" Yashiro ask. He and Navarre were aware of what happen to Ayaha wail ago, her being one of the victims of the mass disappearance and being his father's stage partner only the reappear five years later and being possessed by a Mirage in the process.
"She said she was going to the bathroom. But I personally don't buy that. Sigh… somethings up with her and I'm worried about her." Maiko clenches her fist.
"Guy look at the sky!" Mamori cried she pointed upward. The Fortuna group looked up with a shocked look on their face.
From the top of the Communication Tower, a swirling, spherical mass of purple energy manifested and expanded rapidly throughout the district and possibly Tokyo.
Itsuki and the others immediately become alarmed by the sudden development. The gust of wind started to pick up again with thunder and lightning. The people become startled when serval open gaps begin to form on the wall and on the ground. Slowly, the enthusiasm the crowd was having died down, showing but utter exhaustion.
"Again with this? Oh, you got to be kidding me!" Barry was the first to react, clutching his head in panic, thinking about the up and coming Dia which special episode.
"Hmm I've seen weirder before but this beats the icing on the cake," Tiki-P said with wide eyes as she looked up at the weird purpleness in the sky.
Barry looked at her surprised wail the others seem to agree with her "What? Wait a minute Takana, how are you seeing this?"
Tiki=Waifu cast a glare at the American man "Fists of all don't call me by real name. Secant of all Maiko-san and Tiki-chan said that I have Perfoma potential."
Barry's left eye twitched "Y-you? Why was I-"
"Both of you, stay focus!" Kira barked. Both Tiki=Waifu and Barry jumped at her surprising commanding tone. Kiria then heard her cell phone ring from her pants pocket, and soon everyone else phones ring.
Tsubasa is the first to pick up her phone, she sees a message from her topic.
Dear Mirage Masters
You might be thinking about that surprise Mirage attack, that's happening right now. But no time for that head over to Tokyo Tower's special observatory, the get way to the Idolaspher is open.
I suggest you, Mirage Masters, to make haste if you wish to seek answers.
~Caroline~
Tsubasa became a little relieved about this message she read by an anonymous. "Guys, are you getting this? I think we'll know where to find Aya!"
The rest of the gang replied with a node.
"Hold the phone Tsubasa we don't even know where she is." The bound girl Eleonora said.
"Not quite true, Elly. Olivia deer, see if you can track her down."
"I'd tried but, Miss Ayaha is not here in this world, she is in the Idolaspher."
Tsubasa was in shock and ran to the Tower, Itsuki, called out for her.
"Please forgive me I meant to tell you."
"That's quite alright deary, I made mistakes like this most of the time." Maiko laughed heartily and adjusted her glasses. "Anyway, we better head to that tower."
Itsuki nodded "Right, let's go! Tiki-P you stay here."
"Nope. I got the same message as you guys, I'm tagging along."
"Yeah, no way in heck I'm staying here either I'm the mascot dog!" Barry proudly said.
"Umm, okay," He sighed there is no point in arguing, besides he feels confident about their safety if he and his friends stay together.
Tokyo Tower Special Observatory
Nah and Raidou, encompnyed by a black talking cat, ran up to the observatory only to see three security officers down on the glass floor, next to the gate portal with blood spilling out, Nah gasps in horror at the site.
Raidou walked up to one of the cops, he kneeled down and reach to the officer's neck to cheek his pulse.
"He's dead."
"This is horrible who could have done this?" the brunette half dragon-kin girl tumbled. Raidou simply shrugged in response, she frowned at the human male.
"This isn't a joke." Nah scowled. "Do you know who did this or- Forget it, like I need to ask?"
"It's not from a demon, by the looks of it, cuts seem abnormal though." He spoke casually.
Nah's rolled her eyes "Well that's interesting. I'll bet will find something about this through that portal. Come on, let's go."
Raidou stood up "You two go on ahead, I'm going to look for something useful in here."
"Fine. You better meet us through that portal after your done" and with that Nah ran up to the portal, trying not to step on the blood and corps followed by the black cat.
After he watch Nah & Gotuo went to the Mirage Portal, Raidou heard moaning, he looked to his right to see the presumably dead cop slowly slouching up, then followed by another and the third.
The face of the first dead cop started to catch on fire until face peels off to reveal a faceless gray mask with a red sigil with six eyes; it's the Grima sigil he recalled seeing before.
Moments later the other two cop's face burned into gray faceless grima masks if Raidou were to guess the masks zombies must be Grima's doing.
The three mask zombies turned to their human target and are about to attack.
Raidou ready his katana to dispose of the threat, but stopped, his eyes widen when young black haired women in a white gown ran up to the scene.
Tsubasa Oribe gasped at the four strangers, three of them are wearing a mask with strange symbols on them. The masked ones turned their attention to the girl, Tsubasa can since the mask men are bad, though she dussent know who the guy in black is.
The first of the slouching mask men lung at the girl which she reacts by summoning her Mirage lance, she swung her weapon, cutting the mask in half, it hit the floor with black ink spilling out Tsubasa felt a little sick by looking at it.
Then another one attacked with a nightstick, Tsubasa then snapped out of her thoughts and blocked the zombie's weapon, it took another swing but she blocked it again, it did the third time but this time Tsubasa parried and in a white flash, sliced off its hand in the processes.
The masked phantom stumbled backward, Tsubasa Oribe took that moment and did a round kick to its face and with the force of her kick the demon spin backward, it smashed its head on the steel glass window, knocking it out.
The third one was ready to attack her only to be only to be impaled by Raidou's katana, he pulled it out from the demon and the said demon hit the floor. He setted his katana back to his hilt, he look to cheak up on the newcomer.
"Ew, ew, ew, like totally EW! M-my dress," Tsubasa flailing her arms. "Ceada could you please?"
"Of course Tsubasa." Her white gown started to glow, and the black spots are gone Tsubasa felt relief "Thanks, Ceada!"
"Are you Tsubasa Oribe?" Raidou asks, mining her silly nature.
Tsubasa faces the stranger, she looks at the down mask thing next to him then back to the stranger, and nodded "Yes, my name is Tsubasa Oribe, I'm 17 years pleased to meet you. Thank you for taking out those things what are they?"
Soon after her question, her friends came to the scene. Itsuki, Kiria, Mamori, Eleonora, and Maiko was surprised to see corps on the ground with masks wail Touma, Barry, Tiki-P and Yashiro tense at the horrible mess, they all look at Tsubasa and a new male stranger.
"Are you okay Tsubasa?" Itsuki ask.
"Yeah, I'm alright, Itsuki-kun."
"Tsubasa do you know this guy and what happen here?" Kiria asks, she's pretty sure she haven't seen a guy dress in back before.
"This guy and I took out those monsters in mask his name is…" Tsubasa turned to this stranger, "Do you have a name?"
"It's Raidou miss." He tips his hat to Tsubasa and her friends. The Fortuna group greeted the man in black in return.
Raidou turned to the portal "I should get going, I'm late" He then turned to the portal and walk through the portal.
"Hey wait! Aw man." Tsubasa sighed, "That guy just took off… I didn't even know those things are that attack me earlier."
"By the looks of things they are dress in blue officer uniforms, and they are wearing a mask" Yashrio noted.
"And then we have a mysteries guy in black," Eleonora finished, the actress then looked at the fallen corpse masks. "What the heck is that symbol?"
Maiko took a moment to look at it "It's the same six eyes sigil Ayaha had on her forehand."
Everyone gasped except for Yashiro for some reason. Maiko continued "She had that mark in the past three days, it's safe to assume that she's been here before and these must be the fallen cops I was told about."
"D-do you think Aya did something to them and turned into zombies and tried to attack me!?"
Maiko shook her head "We don't know for sure Tsubasa-chan."
"I'm going in!"
Maiko was in shock "Wait, Tsubasa!" but it was too late, she rushed through the portal already.
"Tsubasa!" Itsuki, Touma, Kiria, Mamori, and Eleonara shout out her name. Barry, Tiki-P are flabbergasted wail Yashiro muttered the word idiot.
"We better follow her!"
Mirage Tokyo Tower
In the background the sky is red, the mood is yellow with the sigil of six eyes and the city is dark with lights and Tokyo Tower in the front.
Tsubasa walked on a huge stone platform with floating stone pillars at the side, she found that Raidou guy glancing around, and she ran up to him.
Raidou turned around to meet the girl, somewhat surprised to see her here "This place could be dangers."
"I am Mirage Master, I can take care of myself." Tsubasa then felt guilty "Sorry, I'm just worried about my big sister."
"No worries miss. I'm actually looking for my friends as well, I've must have missed them."
Tsubasa turned around to see Itsuki and the rest of the gang show up here at the idoloaspher. Itsuki ran up to her "Tsubasa you shouldn't run off like that."
"I know I'm sorry," Tsubasa said sadly.
"It's alright Tsubasa just be careful next time." She nodded in reply. Raidou looked at Itsuki with interest, this boy seems unique as well as the girl.
Touma walked up the guy known as Raidou "So, what's a guy like you doing in a place like this?"
"I'm on a mission but I've lost my partner in this place."
"What kind of mission Raidou-san and is your partner taken by the Mirages?" Mamori ask.
"My mission involves fighting demons as for my partner she must have run off somewhere around here, I'll catch up to her eventually." answered Raidou.
"You're Partner? We're looking for our friend as well, have you seen a Navey haired women strolled around here?" Kiria spoke up.
The detective shook his head.
"I see. We better keep moving then." Kiria mused.
Yashiro watches his comrade's interaction with this stranger until something alerted his senses he turned around to the portal to see three men in mask form before alive and kicking(well two of them at least).
"Guys we got company." Yashiro alerted, he tighten his gloves.
The Fortuna group all turned around to face the three mask zombies from before. "W-what? Oh come on, I didn't know I have to beat them again!" Tsubasa whine.
"Some new dark force is at play and they brought them back…" Ceada appeared beside her human partner Tsubasa.
Itsuki looked at Ceada "Dark force? Are you sure?" Ceada looked at Itsuki and nodded. "Yes, I can feel its dark energy, I've haven't felt anything like it."
"Well, it can't be worse than Medues right?" Tsubasa laughed heartily.
The three bodies begin to bubble and warp into something different; the first one transformed into a large blue humanoid body wearing a brown toga, its head is similar to an elephant but with one eye and a mammoth tusk, it drew its sword.
The secent one transformed into a parrot with a bleached skull with rainbow rock and roll hair as its head.
And the third one transformed (one without its legs) blew up into a feminine body with green hair and a mermaid's tail fin.
"Um, this is new." Tsubasa gawked. "I hope there friendly…" as if on cue Tsubasa received a notification, she looked at her phone to see a new message.
Dear Mirage Master
What you see before you are creators called shadows when a person lose all of their performa they turned into demons and on most cases they become Grima's pets. However, unlike Mirages, you can ether negotiated with them or fight them. If you're able to sessafully negotiated with them they can fight alongside you and enhance your Carnage abilities for special moves or you can command them into battle.
~Caroline~
"Hey Itsuki-kun, guys are you getting this?" Tsubasa ask.
"Yeah I got the same massaged," Eleonora said. "Me too!" Mamori said as well.
Itsuki nodded "You should talk to one of them Tsubasa."
The dark haired girl blinked in surprised but complied she picked out the one demon to talk too: Nope not the skull face parrot nor the elephant head fatty, the mermaid girl will do.
She approached the mermaid "U-um hi, how are you?" she laughed nervously this is crazy and over the top scary oh why me?
The green-haired mermaid looked at her with a bored expression "You know I'm gonna kill you."
Oribe Tsubasa gulped "Why do you want that kill me I'm sorry about your legs, it was just a reflex."
The mermaid laughed "I have no idea what you are talking about but you do look cute and adorable I wish I had a nice looking body like yours. Me? I'm flat."
"OH…" the human girl's face was red.
"I can't think of another reason to kill you other than that, I guess you can call me a jelly welly."
"You don't think I this happy about this then you are missy." She snapped. "Some of my fans just like me for my body! Wail most of them just like me for who I am. It dossent matter if you have an enormous bust it matters of what beats inside of it."
"Hmm, spoken like some nerd priestess… Okay, I guess I'm not going to kill you then. I'll join you only because of that cheesy speech, and because you're cute and adorable. Grima can moan about me switching sides for all I care." The Mermaid smiled.
Tsubasa's face brighten "Thank you so much!"
"Sure, now summoned your mirage blade and extended it to me. You know, that's how professional Mirage Masters does it."
"Of course" Tsubasa conjured her weapon and extended to the Mermaid's direction, her Iron Feather started to glow as well as the recruited shadow. The light consumed the shadow and in a rush turned into light and went inside the mirage masters lace.
Tsubasa felted a new surge of energy flowing warmly within her like her experience with Ceada when they first meet.
"My names Mermaid, by the way, it is nice to meet you, darling," Mermaid said though Tsubasa's mind.
"Thank you, my name is—"
"Ahhh save for the afterlife! Let's just kill these twerps and be done with it!" roared the skull head demon parrot. The demon charged at the group, the said group jumped out of the way.
Itsuki "Chrom its time!" "Right!" Itsuki transformed into his Mirage Master outfit.
Touma did the same and transformed his outfit into a Mirage Master attire as well as Tsubasa.
Itsuki, Tsubase and Touma are in their Mirage Masters uniforms. Followed by Kiria, Eleonora, Mamori, and Yashiro. As for Tiki=Waifu, Maiko, Barry (who is terrified at the site of new monsters) and Raidou, they stood there and watch.
Istuki made the first moved and attacked with lightning magic, but the flying demon avoided. It charged at Itsuki, he jumped sideways and miss.
Eleonora took the moment and aim her bow at the flying target, she released the arrow and the arrow hit its target. The demon got hit and fell down, this time Kiria use thunder on the bonehead parrot, it's paralyzing.
"Now, Mamori!" Kiria shouted.
"Got it!" Mamori ran up to the demon, she jumped up with her huge ax and down came the axe and slice the giant parrot clean in half.
The big one-eyed Elephant-man charged with stomping feet at the Mirage Masters swinging its sword left and right.
Yashiro blocked the Elephant's sword attack, their swords locked in combat. The demon was focus on overpowering the Mirage Master until he notices one of them is missing, something caught its ear it looked up only to see a white and pink boot on its eye, it screeched in pain and covered its eye.
"Right in the eye nice one Tsubasa!" Maiko cheered. Tiki=Waifu clapped wail Barry cheered on.
Itsuki used a wind attack forcing the big demon to fall down on its back "Alright Elly do your stuff!"
"With pleaser!" she said with a smirk. "Viron!" Eleonora tossed up her bow, with the flash of light Elly's mirage partner showed himself.
The Mirage summoned a big arrow from his chest and pointed upward to the sky. He fired his arrow and with few moments 1000s of arrows rained down on the demon, it's in critical condition. Kiria finishes it off with a powerful lighting, courtesy of Tharja, thus the demon exploded into flames.
After the battle the seven Mirage Masters outfits change back to their ongianl clothing, Tsubasa sighed in relief. The rest seem ready to press on.
"I got to say, well-done everybody," Maiko said cheerfully.
"Yeah, not bad," Tiki=Waifu said.
"Meh, I've seen better fight scenes than this," Barry stated bluntly. "Oi, dud in back! What do you think? Hey wait a minute where did he go?" the blond man anime nerd looked around.
Itsuki and the other were alarmed about this as well. "Well we better follow him plus we need to find Ayaha."
"Right! Let's hurry!" Tsubasa said with determination.
