Well this is awkward... She actually allowed us to share the same blanket tonight. Aya took her leave as she was "Well enough" to leave. That and she hasn't reported back after her "unforeseen accident". Aya's life is pain under the tengu rules. I love my freedom and only needing to work early hours of the day to rest at relatively normal hours at night has perks. Right now though, the only thing perky is Satori. She falls asleep real quick after eating dinner. It's snug being right by her like this. I only now realize she is quite small in body type. Well except her thunder thighs. Her lower is the complete opposite of her upper.
"Mmmmm, nnnno mmmore.Ssssleep." She wiggles closer to me when we barely had space to begin with. Pulling her closer to me. Everything about her screams fragile, weak, insecurities that she cannot fix. I always thought the yokai of Gensokyo where proud, but the more I interact with the girls the more I see just how weak they are. The few that are strong had years to perfect themselves. It's a reminder that they're here on borrowed time. No matter what, Gensokyo will end someday. Before it fades, I want to make a difference that matters. This is a good starting point. She wiggles abit from her position the warmth we shared really helps to battle the impending cold that soon follows. I'm a very morbid person underneath it all. Or maybe a pragmatist, either way I know exactly what entails for the future of this place. I just don't know when it'll happen...
The birth of the second gap yokai.
"Ugh, finally I got into your head." What the?
"Well it ain't like looking into a mirror anymore. You're your own man now kid. Hell I even say we're completely different sides of the same coin." Wait? That voice? You-!
"Sorry kiddo, We'll meet at the festival, I got a proposition that will benefit us both." A request? To do what exactly?
"I just want a fight. With your help kid. After winter is over, I'll be looking for you. So at any moment I'll strike. You got a good head on your shoulders. I'm also the one that has been taking most of the magic from Gensokyo for about...10 years now." Wait? When was the last incident?
"About 5 years ago some market card people did something I don't know the details. After that relative peace." So what every five years something happens here?
"Yep, this is my tenth year...So ready or not Rose boy. I'll be waiting at the edge of the dragon weather statue this festival." So why do you want to do this?
"We're the same person...or was, take a guess as to why."...Fucking psychopath.
"GET UP ALREADY!" Wha? Opening my eyes I see that the many faces of worry looking at me. What happen?
"Y-y-you started crying in your sleep and I shouldn't have read your mind...I-I'm so sorry of the things done to you." Did...did Satori saw the things that was done to me?I can feel how dry my eyes are now.Satori hugs me tighter. I'm just...so confused. Yeah bad things happened, but she didn't see... What the hell's going on? She loosened her grip around me and oh man those are some red eyes. Look, whatever you saw, it's over now. Her face didn't change from the downtrodden expression she had.
"But, how can you live on like that? Day in and day out?" It's fine, it's who I am at the end of the day. I know what people thought of me back then. I see this as an improvement over everything. Atleast, I'm not called evil for being who I am. Sounds familiar doesn't it? She tries to smile...carresing her face, I give her a kiss on her forehead.
I don't deserve sympathy of any kind. I was a monster...I am a monster. Didn't matter what I did. I was always a monster. I can't change the things I've done, but I can change the here and now. You didn't see what I saw? I try to recollect the experience, but somehow it's garble and muddled like white noise. She's confuse by what's she seeing and shakes her head.
"All I saw was a child trying to be happy only for the people around him ignoring his kindness and love. You lashed out at so many people cause they didn't try to understand you. You're not a monster. I mean you're a yokai now but...it's complicated an-!?" I put my fingers to her lips. I scoff. It's complicated and it doesn't matter anymore. I looked for help and people couldn't help me. Maybe, I was looking for something and that was what kept me going. I'm comfortable right here with you, and my new family. I'll always fight to protect my family. That's the only thing I have left of the past. We should get dress for the day. She nods.
"The shower is this way?" She points to the back of the house. Yeah and your clothes should be dry by now. She nods.
"Aw, not chasing her to see her naked are we?"...*POKE*
"Motherfucking dammit, stop doing that!"...No, not until you stop saying these things.I thought I was a perve back then. Tenshi takes the cake as one of the guys. I mean that figuratively.
"I should mention that we might need to double up in the shower cause after the festival the only way to clean properly is at one of the hotsprings. So uhhh...yeah." I look at her like she's dumb but I thought about it...dammit.
"I'm not saying the couple should be in there but I'm don't want to be near the mindreader." Yeah that's a hard no from me. This is such a bad idea.
"Yuukarin already showered with Utsuho. Sorry brother, I rather wash with Tenshi than your girlfriend."...I've been thrown to the wolves. I'm just going in there to clean not have a quickie with my girlfriend. I sigh in defeat as I walk to the back. I only now see the eye above the door going wide at my direction.
"W-w-what a-a-are you d-d-doing here!" We kinda have no choice so just close your eyes for a moment. I watch as the third eye slowly close. I huff as I undress and quickly open the door. When I open my own eyes we're both looking at eachother. I uhhhhh wow.
"We should get ready for the day." That came out more slow than I'd like.Warm water is not helping our situation as well...I'm pretty much standing at attention at her. She breathes sharply at the sight.
"I'm...it's...How's is that considered average?"...I'm sorry how many did you see before mine? She shakes her head her short hair sticking to her face.We should get this over with, turn around I'll wash you first, and then you can return the favor. I'm surprise she didn't audibly protest as she turn around. I exhale and just remind myself it's normal at this point people here are used to this type of stuff. I softly rub her back with my hands and wow my hands kinda sink alittle into her skin like dough. I'm careful as I guide down to her lower waist...She is kinda.
"I'll kick you out if you finish that thought." Right mindreader sorry. I'm done now.
"Already? I was hoping for more."...I'm not in a massaging mood right now and whoa Satori! Your hands are not suppose be there.
"Mmmmm...If others saw this part of you...just how many would be all over you?"I'm glad you think my equipment is impressive, but seriously snap outta this. Luckily, she goes into cleaning mode after that.
"Turn around." Bad ideas turn into great ideas when hormones are driving you instead of rationale. We look like a train wreck in the rain. With our breathe and faces this close...I...just...want to...
"It hurts the first time?"...Only a...OK WE'RE DONE! Satori blinks and the trance she was in is broken before she dashes outta of the shower with a massive blush as she grabs her normal outfit. I'm a little stunned at what happened, but I don't trust myself to not hurt her.
I just dodge a bullet.
I turn off the shower and change right outside of it, I haven't even notice that my stocky burly body has change to a more slim fit with some defined muscle. It's interesting how reincarnation is this slow at giving you a proper body, but then again I could be like the prince of Gensokyo's Taoism...Yeah no I prefer being a man.
At the same time as Venus is changing;Satori ran inside while in the buff holding her normal clothes in hand embarrassed at her actions as everyone inside look upon her quickly closing the front door and collapsing behind the door hyperventilating at what they've almost done. She's elated,she's nervous,she really wants him, she promise to wait.
"YO, Tell me ya'll didn't try to fuck in the shower?"She tries to focus on the doll but all these new emotions she felt...they make her scared and excited. She saw all the lust he suppress for so long. How does he have so much control? She also saw all the love he had for her...His love and lust...Venus's love is her need while his lust is only the byproduct of both their wants. She tries to reason the emotional turmoil yet couldn't.
"First time?" She looks at Yuuka a small smile on her face. She nods confused.
"Yep, you two got so drunk off of your love that you mistake it as just carnal desires. Don't worry, I trust you're a good girl for my boy. I can also guess he was the one that snap outta of it first?" Satori nods still dazed at all this.
"Well, call it hunch, but men like that are rare. His love overrides his lust in so many occasions and well I wanted to just get the feeling outta the way cause it was the most frustrating thing in my early years. In the end it was mistake to rush it. So, don't get carry away by what you see cause that's a slippery slope." Satori finally got an answer for her dilemma, eventually Venus will give in to her advances. However, he'll always try to push it away cause he truly loves her and fears hurting her in anyway. So they both must show control. Satori starts crying in happiness. Shocking her pet.
"MISS SATORI!?"
"Thank you so much for being in my life."She gets up with a small smile and begins getting dress.
"Damn girl you got the whole peach butt and everything down there. How'd no one tap that?"She laughs in defeat at Tenshi's comment.
"You should eat less peaches Tenshi cause my posterior is not a peach." Finally dressed, she now knows that if he gives in he might lose his love of her. So with love and faith for their future she cleans her tears and hopes for more fun days ahead with him.
Talk about a life full of circumstances. Even if we did do it I don't think I'm ready for that yet. I prefer what we're doing now. I'm just glad I didn't get lost in that feeling. Better check on her to see if she's ok now. Oh look who it is.
"Yeah yeah I'm sorry for putting you through that. You must of had some fun right?" Fun is cooking, fun is gardening, fun is living a carefree life. Fun isn't...That. I'm not ready for fatherhood. I liked what I saw, but that's not why I love her. I huffed at this as I went back inside. Satori is dress finally and...I'm gonna have to get use to how close we got to making a mistake. Satori's smiling at me even with the obvious tears she trying to hide.
"I'm just...really happy to have you." I...whoa! Satori gives me a surprise hug, with her silent happy tears. I sigh in contentment at this as I'm just happy to try to do the right thing for once.
"I should get going now I'll probably be back tomorrow morning. Thank you for allowing me to stay Miss Kazami, and thank you Venus for forgiving my brashness." I give Kagerou a waved goodbye as she headed probably somewhere deep in the magical forest or to the Misty Lake.
"So...what are we doing today?" I guess last minute prep time before the Festival or do you wanna check out the shrine?" She hums before smiling.
"How about you pick the destination." Dang, right into the spotlight? Alright let's head for the shrine see how one of our local Mikos are doing. She nods before searching for something on the living room table and grabs a small sack.
"Donation money, anything you want to get before we go?" Seeds, I haven't had salted sunflower seeds this entire time I check one of the basket and saw a few bags leftover. I take one and grab my new coat along the way. The slight clanking of my new defensive options caught Satori's attention.
"What are those?" Those being?
She goes for the underside pockets and pulls out the black engraved steel curved balisong she is enamored by the design and complexity of it.
"What is this for? It doesn't look like a knife to me." I pull out the exact opposite color balisong from my other pocket. It's white steel with engrave blue on it. Both are 7 inch blades. Kinda oversized for tricking but that's not the purpose of these unfortunately. I flare it out into it's "open" state. I realize I've never given them a name yet. "Gin trickster", and it's brother "Kuro Dokeshi". Yeah, I think that fits my weapon of choice.
"Wouldn't you call these daggers? Knives aren't usually this long or curve like this." Oh they're knives in the same way the bowie knife is a knife. She seems shock at what was basically a shortsword in appearance but not in name.
"That's a sword not a knife you're just messing with me." No, it's the purpose behind such a tool. It's basically like the tachi or straight katana you know? Want to bring Okuu? Satori looks at her pet hell raven who seem to be struggling to stay awake before passing out into my couch with a low soft fwump. Well, we better get going, when was the last time you ever been on the surface?
"It's certainly been a long while since I've been up here and we gotta meet the others today. Oh, Miss Kazami we're heading out, anything you need?" Mom puts on a thinking pose before rushing to her bedroom before reappearing with a list and I can guess allowance. However, the paper looks fairly new and not crumbling like the other I was handed. Taking them from her we headed out with a silent wave to her.
"Satori there you are!"...Oh it's Orin...and she has her cart fill with corpes...I'm gonna have to get use that.
"Orin you're finally here did you bring my spares?" Orin nods assuredly and was about to give them when Satori just points behind at Mom's house.
"I'll be back here soon so just set them here I'm sure Okuu will be up by then." Orin rushes past us to set them near the door and quickly prances back to her cargo and takes quick strides away from us kicking up noticeable dust behind her. Well better go see Reimu and others. I'm really thinking that's normal huh?I turn my gaze at Satori we both are unsure what our future holds for us both, but.
"We atleast have eachother, and our families to remind us what's really important." We both nod checking one more time we have everything before taking a slow flight towards the shrine. I've really gotten use to this feeling and it's still so surreal.
Arriving to the Hakurei Shrine was well enough and the place was kinda busy in it's own way. Red white, and Black white with the little short Oni cleaning the shrine grounds.
"Oi, da ze it's our local mute and mindreader." She waves us over as we gently landed. There are others here I didn't see the first time here. But, yeah that tiny moving cup was Sakuna she is indeed an inchling, the other ran up to us with her hands raised like a dogs and sniffs at us curiously.
"You're a yokai too?Not many look like you." Kamano Aunn the unfortunately weak shrine protector of this Shrine, and any other shrine that's in trouble. She's more puppy than dog as she goes back to Reimu's side.
"So much information flooding my head. How can someone be jealous of me?"...Now I'm curious which one it is. Marisa is out, so that leaves...I can see why it could be her. Given her chances she's not exactly a good partner choice for normal people. I smirk and walk up to the donation box and drop a few thousand yen into it. I have enough for whatever happens. Looking at the inchling princess perch on top of it she looks up and has a noticeable blush...knew it.
"It's her?...I see." Everybody else is stunned at this charade I flatten out my palm to the tiny princess and she gets on. It's an odd feeling to have feet sink into your hands a little.
"I take it...you are his lover?" The others flinch except Satori who pulls her smug expression at the inchling...come on I'm not a prize ladies.
"I'll free you from this harlot some day sir cause she only has bad intentions." I huff trying not to laugh as I set Sakuna back on the box. Well we did our part in this so we should go.
"Now hold on, You and her? Are...How...I...Is this a elaborate joke?" Reimu look at us and we both kinda shrug at her. I mean it's just how it is Reimu. She has this disbelief in her expression as well as horror at what we could do in the future. That's probably not gonna happen so don't worry Rei Rei. Satori snickers at that confusing the girls even more.
"Rei Rei? Cute." Reimu sputters at that.The little Oni looks at us curiously. Before giving us the same chipmunk toothy grin at us.
"Well can't wait to see everyone's faces at this tomorrow. I hope you two the best. Don't do what our older residence do to men."...Duly noted Suika. Oni are the gods of honesty man. Doesn't mean I need to hear another warning about our relationship. We waved goodbye to the group and headed to the human village in our lackadaisical speed we had. I thought I saw a few stink eyes as we left...it's probably my imagination after holding Sakuna.
"So what is on the list?" Good question checking it... I stopped going forward with my mouth slightly open. She looks curiously before coming closer and look at the list. We both kinda blush at it as I don't feel comfortable or even want to know if they have those here.
"L-L-Lets get to the human village and uhhh talk to the Rabbit." If she's there we should probably enter through the gate to atleast be polite. Satori nods while our blushes lessen a little at the thought of contraceptives existing here. While I'm no stickler about being safe. I believe we're not there at all in our relationship just yet. The fact that can be found here is surprising cause this rural world is base on the three fs. Fighting,farming,and fucking. Satori whips her head at my observations in bewilderment. I give her shrug as I'm not wrong am I?
"Halt Youkai...It's Yuuka's kid again? I don't think we've seen you before here Satori." It's confusing when Satori is the actual name of her species and her name at the same time so either unfortunate way it works. It's the village police princess. Kotohime...she's vastly different except her red long hair in a ponytail and purple dress is slit to the right side. I only now see she's got a metal baton holster to her hip...no explosives though?
"Well if you're gonna be scare atleast show it."...confusion,just let us through. She sighs before pushing the guard to the lever and pull.
"Just keep to yourself. Respect our rules or we'll use force. I'd so love to use some of my new toys." That's not a nice smile so we hurry along into the village. Satori sees the bustling group of children running to help their parents nearby. A small smile on her face though I could see her hands start to slowly wrap around her lower midsection before looking at me with a heavy blush. In the future...But let's focus on fixing ourselves before we make...yeah let's just find Reisen.
"Judging from the many minds here; she should be the one in a purple yukata with a giant basket down...that way." Well that way being our right side of this long in-between of buildings that is the main path to the gate. Most people look at us in wonder, none looked like anyone I've seen before in my memories. Satori kept looking ahead us before trying to tug me further with little success as she grunts. Alright, Alright slow down. An older woman look at us and giggle at us.
I can guess already what she's thinking.
"She should be right...here." We found ourselves at a makeshift stall with the lunatic rabbit looking at us in wonderment. Satori's face got really red...right those. We'll need them.
"Do...you..have...condoms?" Her eyes bugged out and looked between us. She is slackjaw before trying to shake her head to focus. I think we drove Reisen into being insane from this revelation.
"Yes, but they're expensive...5k yen for a box of?... size ma'am?" Well get large, but seriously? My life is in turmoil. I swear Satori's head is burning. As she drops 5k yen on the table in embarrassment and reluctance.
"Large...please." At that Reisen straw hat fell off her head exposing her crooked ears. She moved robotically to the lower counter and gave us the rubbers. I grabbed them quickly to hide it in my coat. I give her a bow, but her eyes kept looking up and down at me.
"How very lucky for you ma'am. I hope you two enjoy yourselves tonight." Her eyes scared me. So time to get outta here as soon as possible. Satori started breathing heavily as she looks up at me. Satori you're loosening your top's buttons and we're in public.
"I see now, how it's done...Venus...save me from this...feeling."...Yep cold water right coming up. I pick her up over my shoulder and ran past the crowd, and towards the gate.
"Venus!,Whoa!I'm not a log!...PUT ME DOWN VENUS ROSE!"...No.
"Just calm down." She places her free hand to my face a sent a pulse that seem to sooth my emotions. I slow down and set her down, she didn't let go though and being this close to her like this...It's actually hard to ignore how pretty she actually is.
"There...Thank you for trying to help. I think after being pick up like that gave me the shock I needed." Sorry about that it's just...I'm not confident in not hurting you or making you disappointed in my performance you know? She chuckles.
"Disappointed...in you? I'm scared too. I just don't want us to be so lost about this feeling. After speaking to your mother earlier I realize..."...
...I would describe the action here but I think my brain stop to process it.
"I love you so much Venus." Yeah I love you too Satori. I think we should wait. Neither one of us are comfortable with it just yet. So, ready to head back?
"Kid, there ya are.Oh? Sorry missy but we need some time alone." Not now Astergo! Why now! Satori looks in the direction of the voice after our passion kiss. Yeah I'll go with that to rationalize our action.
"As long as he comes back in one piece. I'll be waiting back at your mother's. I'll probably take a cold shower too." She slips her hand into my coat and takes the box before I could stop her and takes off towards the garden.
Great! So what do you want now?
"Relax, I apologize for ruining the moment. Anyways, here a gift from the west." That's not a normal mask. It look like a led screen, but it clearly didn't have electronics in it what is this stuff?
"It's new age magic as the world is starting to believe again. You put alittle magic into it and it can display words or emotions. It's also hard to destroy so it can be use for protection." So the west is spiritual again? How'd that happened? Astergo seem to have a darken expression at what I was questioning.
"Son the outside world is trying to make amends for what it has done to our mother earth right now. Just how long do ya think you've been dead?" I don't know, I'd rather not think about that. He sighs in what I guess is disappointment.
"20 years...you've been dead for 20 years kid."...Why was I resurrected then?
"Reincarnated not resurrected. The body is vastly different cause you're not the same person. That jiangshi in the cemetery is resurrected, but not you." Ok, but atleast tell me why I'm here...Right now.I'm not even asking for the meaning of life or anything like that.
"If it helps this place does that alot for forgotten or lost individuals. In fact a good chunk of people here are reincarnated." SO I SPUN THE ROULETTE OF A BILLION PEOPLE!? He seem confuse by my comment.
"I think ya mean million not billion."...What?
"It's a long tedious story just go on and make ya girl happy ya hear?"...You're a confusing person man. I'm just gonna go. I ran past the gate and head back to the garden.
I kinda wish they didn't put so much pressure on us. I mean...Mom must of had a reason, right?
"There you are, so you have anything to wear for tomorrow?" I shook my head as we had a nice meal to end our outing. Medicine look between me and Satori and sigh.
"Yuukarin wanted to say something, but as you can see she's asleep so instead. Orin will be here to watch over Okuu as we set up a place for you two to get it over with." Are we really pulling this? No, I refuse. I huff and shook my head at this...It's now officially annoying. I'm going for a walk. Finishing my plate and setting it in the sink; I went over to grab my coat.
"Venus, wait." Satori...alright let's hear it. Glancing at Medicine for an explanation.One wrong word I'm out the door to train.
"What I mean we have an extra room given by Yukari we haven't use before. You just need the magic words. It'll probably do you guys good to be away with just yourselves and no one else." I look at Satori if she wanted to give it go. She nods.
"Yes, it might be good time to talk about this. I don't want to ruin what we got." With that Medicine waves her hand at her to come closer she bends down and whisper something to Satori. She looks back at me a little alarm, but soon she's right in front of me with her soft smile.
"Ready to go?"Yeah, I shouldn't be so afraid of what happens as it hasn't happened yet. She chuckles grasping my hands tightly to hers.
"Higan is our home. Parents need me time."...Wha-!?
Soon we're both inside an almost exact copy of Mom's house it's well managed and clean. I look around the place.
Green flower petal wallpaper, flower photos on the book shelf in the corner. Haphazard papers strown about. It's warm in here. So this was Yuuka's old home.
You want some tea Satori?She nods.
"Make it green tea too."Alright, checking the usual places for tea and spotted the green herbs needed. Filled an old red tea pot and dropping in the herbs. Same gas stove too. Though it's a little bit older than the one back home. So that's gonna take a while to boil. We sat down at the kitchen table and I check my coat pocket.
Oh good my snack, might as well.
Want some? She nods. I gave her three handful of boiled salted seeds as that was basically half. These aren't the saltiest seeds, but they're really good nonetheless. The silent nibbling and crunch of breaking shells.
It has been so long since I had some.
"So the outside is beginning to believe in us again?"...Yeah, maybe in the future the world will embrace simpler things and only use safer ways of power. The magic in our world can be mystical and logical. Every type of yokai has a need. Those that are biological like me and Satori require very human needs. Nature born like fairies have no need, but they still feel "hungry" except Cirno who is very close to to becoming a true lesser yokai. Speaking of biology, Did you have a mother Satori? She stops her chewing, and swallows.
"I had a father, He try to watch over us until Koishi could walk and talk by herself. He...died to yokai hunters who were very much afraid of us. I don't like humans who only look at us and think we shouldn't exist. We just wanted to lived our life. Before long I started taking in animals while watching over Koishi...I killed so many animals back then to eat and gave so much to Koishi until she close her third eye forever. I don't see you as a replacement for my long dead father. I see you as my first love who tries his best to keep his family happy. I appreciate you and everything you've done.I won't lie, this feeling inside me...This need to mate with you...I just want to..."
I see,for her this new high tension libido is new to her. Anything that reminds her of that feeling hits her like a truck. It doesn't help that I'm just as high as her on it. The difference is I was so used to it as a human. I also learn to keep it away from my time out and about with people I didn't know. She's just not used to it yet. Her eyes widen at my thought process.
"So, with time we'll learned to suppress this feeling?Yeah, I know it sucks but what's more important, gratification without understanding or when we're both fully comfortable to do it without any form of doubts?
"I see that we have a long way to go. But let's entertain a thought shall we?" Let me guess, try to see Okuu as our daughter and play house with the young hell Raven? She burst into a laughing fit at that scattering a few seeds my way.
"Hehe..No, but something like that. By the way the tea." Right...tea...shit the tea. She chuckles lightly at my absent-mindedness as I got up and took the boiling teapot off the stove and turn it off. She already had a cup ready so I pour her some of the light green liquid. She blows on it for a minute and takes a sip. Humming while getting more comfortable in her seat.
"It always taste better when you're around the people you care about." Yeah especially when you can make pure untainted water.
"I supposed that as well...I'm tired, so I'll be taking the bed unless...you want to join me?"...Already did it once might as well again. She takes off most of her clothes revealing the soft cotton white night gown she wore before. I mostly wear the same work clothes to bed as I'm very self conscious of myself. But, she's already seen me naked at this point. Thank god for boxers. She still seems taken aback by my physique. Then again her -.
"I'll leave you right now if you think that thought."It's not a bad thing to have such a nice ass. It's a nice heart shaped bubble Satori. She tries to retort at this but throws her dress at me.
"Tenshi atleast call it a peach a cartoon heart shaped posterior is worse in my opinion." Wait that means she..Whoa! Stop dragging me! She looks back at me slyly.
"No." Well should've seen that coming as we clambered into the bedroom. This bed is twice the size of mom's. There's a picture here...Is that...MOM!?
The guy looks slightly familiar but he's way taller than her, he also looks like an Oni, what the hell? I guess she had love life too before all this.
"Come on nosy get in already I'm tired as it is."Sorry...it's just...that guy reminds me of something.
"I'll leave you on the cold floor if you don't get some rest Dectective Rose." Alright Alright...Climbing into the soft white cotton sheets meeting my gaze was her pinkish glow in the dark eyes. She curls into me as I softly hold unto her waist. The size disparity is obvious now. However, she's shifting before...
"I*peck*love *peck* you *peck* so *peck* much *peck*." She's kissing upto my face with a sultry expression arisen in her eyes before going for the hicky on my right side of my neck. She giggles softly at seeing the mark before turning her butt towards my front.
"Good night Venus."...Yeah...sweet dreams...My life is a realm of turmoil. Not that I hate it really.
"Yuukarin was it alright to share such a place to them?" Back at the garden where a full moonlight cascades through the window. The two of them wrap in a quilt admiring the stars from the window.
"I think they just need some time alone, besides they needed proper time alone without any outside influences. They're trying not to rush eachother while also being so inexperienced about themselves. I admire my son's reluctance to not destroy his current relationship with her. They both have a long way to go. We should get some rest tomorrows the big day Medichan. So..." Medicine was already soundly asleep as Yuuka's soft spoken words lulled the doll into a tired trance.
"May you have more fun days Medichan." Yuuka's small smile remain as she let her body relax into soothing rhythmic breathing.
I woke up in relative peace with Satori still asleep. I gotta get up and deal with myself, luckily we're not wrap around eachother. Sorry Satori, but I got morning things to do. See you at the festival. Checking the random papers on the counter one had a almost...esoteric message to it. Alright. Let's try this.
I love my new home.My children need me.
I'm back in the living room of Mom's house and she's clearly asleep, along with Medicine. Better get going to the statue. Doubt anyone is awake this early. Being this silent has never not been seen as disadvantage to me. I can guess who made those codes. Time to meet...myself. Well not myself, but is the real me that makes up the other side of me...I hate myself.
Flying above the village I could clearly see the dragon statue below it was man leaning crossarms at the pedestal's base. Landing near the statue and this place is the deadest area I've ever seen since I've been here. Yoshika is more alive than this.
"Finally, damn I used to look like that? 10 years really changes everything. By the way we're starting a band and the first gig...this Festival."...UHHHHHHHHHHHH? What...the...fuck?
"You can't back out, you good with drums?Of course you are. I mean you could follow any beat." Whoa don't talk this fast with no sense.
"If people are wondering I'm Vector. I'm you, but better and more experienced." Ok, Vector. I can see why. The Black leather coat, the short platinum or white blonde hair, the light tan skin yet. I know who he is regardless of not looking like me at all. He's me with ever more of my faulty brain habits that I kept suppress.
"Come on, cut me some slack. I didn't think I too would come back from the dead. As a revenant of course so if my head gets blown off I can just come back. Unlike you, my friend. The original us is no longer. That much is now obvious. So let us drink,eat, and be merry for a day with our kin." Vector seem to be either way outta of his mind, or he really is just some form of psychopath. He smirks in the direction of the Hakurei Shrine as people are getting ready for today's holiday.
"All the pretty ladies are gonna love you,or hate your girlfriend. You know how it is with the women. They love to tear eachother apart." Can we go back to the band part. Why should I help you form a band?
"It's your dream and this place is a realm of infinite possibilities. Besides, everyone wants atleast a musical number. Why not do it?" Inexperienced, unnecessary, unneeded.
"Reduncy aside my friend. I also want to blow off alot of this power safely. You probably assume my power is siphoning but that's actually my passive. I can't exactly turn it off as I need it to live, so periodically I go on deep hell hunts against awaken feral yokai. I actually work with hell and animal realms leaders to keep the peace. Well, peace to them is more like a fun slaughterhouse for me. Point is, I'm way too over qualified for my next job." So your next job is kicking my ass and taking my soul? He laughs at that loudly enough for people to stare only to see the towering man he is and simply ignore him.
"No,nah I'm not after your soul. But, I need your power to bring a few...uh...people from the dead. Well to break them outta their sealed cages."Those being?
"Bofeng,Youki, and Myouren."...What? Aren't they dead? He shakes his head.
"They were dead, but recently I felt the energy of this place shift into high gear. Three unique signature are in deep new hell right now. Problem is, winter freezes old and new hell from being explorable thank god that's really only a month long." Why me why can't you do it? Couldn't you just tell their family members they're alive? He looks back at me finally and smirks at me whose just confused. I've been hit by all this information so why?
"The outside is beginning a new era or spiritual belief which kick off the revival of old friends. I can't tell Junko or Hecatia about Bofeng being alive. That'll shatter Junko's trust in me. I might be unhinged, but you forget we're very loyal to our friends." Ok, Myouren hijiri why not tell about him to his sister?
"You really want to tell the monk her entire life's work was for nothing? As for Youki...it's a complicated matter with him being too stubborn and too goddamn old." You said cages are they sealed or are they free? He waggles his hand in an unsteady fashion.
"Ehhhhh, little bit of column A, and a little bit of column B." I threw my hands up and stare at him in disbelief at this. So why is Astergo looking for you really?
"That guy still kicking? Well it's because-"!?
"You owe me ten souls scumbag."...Of course, I take it back I'd rather be with Satori or Mom right now. Fuck it I'd take fucking Tenshi over this. This is what insanity is like.
"Here in the broad daylight?Ok,here you go ten souls for the lord's pilgrimage to the east." From my perspective they just shook hands, but what I felt during this was like massive weight was expelled from the air. People were visibly happier...What was that just now?
"That was taking unwanted souls to the lord's field as the Yama has no business holding unto our flock." So even Christianity got here? Astergo smile before waving good bye at us. It's like people ignore this man as if he belongs. It's weird.
"Well, now that killjoy ain't gonna bother me. Yeah, the mother,the sister, and the granddaughter must not ever know of their existence cause who knows what they'll try to do to get them back. And they're kinda are like mad powerful so being seal for that long could cause catastrophic things to occur. As I myself is a walking nuke waiting to happen. You see reincarnated beings don't siphon magic like at all. But a revenant who needs all he can get does. I also can't affect certain types such as ghost,magicians, reincarnated people, basically anything that is considered the dead in the physical sense is fully out of my reach. So yeah I'm technically sucking the life juices of most biological yokai. That's alot of magic so if I up and go "poof" one day. It won't be a pretty sight." He emphasizes this point by making a small visual of a mushroom cloud from his hands.
"That's where your power comes in you can harness a harmless amount of this energy as your passive ability is basically an atronach."...I'm a rock? No, he means that I can absorb magic, but since I'm not fully capable of what it can do it's less destructive...right? Vector nods.
"Yep, you can take all this extra energy and put it back into the air around us. The more magic you expelled the less volatile you are and vice versa." You mentioned passives as if everyone has some form regular ability on top of established powers? So what's Junko's or Hecatias?
"Junko's is complicated, but I can tell you it's like a form of radar. Hecate is the ability to know where everyone is currently until they die. In fact she probably knew of your existence the day you was originally born." I think that fits her nicely so like what is Mom's then?
"Don't know but it's mostly harmless, and it seems to calm the people around her if she allows it to." So a form of soothing passive...yeah that makes sense.
"Listen, I'm not gonna go through my ten years of being here to go down the list pointing out every single person's passive so as long as you harness magic you get a passive with an active ability. Most don't even realize what their passive does cause it's usually subtle." Video game design 101 yeah? After winter is over? Vector nods.
"Look, I want to prevent a catastrophe next year cause unfortunately those seals are breaking if we can't free them without destroying this place. It's basically game over for Gensokyo." Right, but isn't this place already failing though? He waggle his finger at me disapprove about my observation.
"Yes and No, it's in everyone's best interest even my unhinged mind knows that we don't want to just disappear. Even the pesky lunarians who in all their incompetence knows that we're a balance." I know that but it's like inevitability so we'll just enjoy our time until it all fades away.
"Maybe it's my stockholm syndrome setting in, but let me be clear. Every single person here including the immortals will cease to exist!" He's now towering above me with him clawing at the air. A seething expression on his face and blazing green eyes.
OK, OK. I'll...help you...somehow.
"Good, cause I need let off steam at the festival. By doing that I can give back all this store energy safely to its rightful public without killing us all in the process." And he whisk away in what I'll describe as red and black veins use as a veil as he become the air itself it felt...organic in nature. Well better get back home...SHIT SATORI! Taking off above the village and heading back quickly to the garden. She's probably fine, but I did kinda leave her alone to do this. I should feel bad, but I wanted answers...about myself and why I'm here.
"So he left this morning huh?" Aya looks at that slightly distress mindreader.
"I don't know if it's from everyone egging us on or what? I trust him to be there or he had something to do this morning." Soon they'll be getting ready for the Autumn Hakurei Festival so Kagerou appeared along with a cleaned up Tenshi. Still Venus's sudden departure upsets Satori a little.
"I wouldn't worry, it's not like he's some secret stud that gets the ladies right?" Satori looks over at Kagerou who was quite literally dragged back to Yuuka's house as a sign of forgiveness. Tenshi gets the idea now.
"Ok, maybe it's just because he can't talk." Satori glances at Tenshi like she's stupid.
"I'm his significant other. Talking isn't part of the equation celestial." But, I feel like he was force to do something this morning. That feeling from last night...I want that everyday, but the palace needs me during winter and he'll be busy here. So I want to have as many fond memories as we can get before that.
"Yuukarin you think it might have something to do with that feeling you felt earlier?" Medicine looks at the compose tea drinking gardener.
"It was like Gensokyo's magic was converged to one point. In all my life I've never seen or heard of something like that. I can take a guess who or what can contain that much magic." She takes a sip while eyeing the window to see the slight reddish tint of energy disappeared.
He's back. It's almost time better get ready. Just what did Yukari bring me this time?
Finally back home and...I thought we didn't have curtains? Walking up to the front door only for Medicine to pop her head out.
"It's indecent right now, go away until we're ready. Take a shower or something."...You can't just close off the whole house girls! I'm shocked, but I'll just let it go. I give her a thumbs up as she close the door quickly. An audible click as well...You gotta be kidding me. I needed to wash anyways. So I go to the back for basically the final shower I'll have here before it's too cold to actually wash out here.
It was same as before only to see something odd on the clothesline...what the hell is that? It's not just a suit it's a casual black button shirt with a golden dragon embroidery along the long sleeves, a red undershirt to go with it, black slacks and those are steel toe boots. Yep I think I know who it's from. Putting this all on felt weird when I've been not all that fancy before. Even with this being dress casual I almost didn't notice the vest holster that attaches to my coat. I technically don't need it but anything to stop the knife jingle jangle like I'm a old western cowboy. I decided to try on the mask and yeah I can still see through it like it's more of giant lens. A little magic huh?...URK!?
*Ka-chink*
What I didn't expect was it clamping tight to my neck and it humming; not uncomfortable just kinda odd how it feels...right. Whatever the case, I think the girls are done. Walking back I look at the blacken window to see my own reflection...! Ok that's gnarly this thing grew sharp teeth from that little magic impulse like it's alive, and my hair grew so it gave me kinda of a manic killer look with all this...Freaky. I'm sure its fine the outside world loves costumes during fall so I'm sure they're use to this kinda stuff. Knocking on the door it open quickly.
"Yeah we're...DONE!" Medicine look scare of me and was about to sling a ball of poison at me only for me raised my hands to signal wait a minute as I raised a finger as I stop feeding the mask to take it off revealing myself. She sigh in relief.
"Yama above why are you wearing that thing?" I shrugged as I put it back on. This time it was back to it's blank features as I finally got a good...look...at...
*Ka-chink*
The girls flinch as the mask signal my stupefied situation. They uh...Yukari did good though the Tengu and Crow's wear reveals a bit too much for this time period definitely will turn some heads. I say this side tie underwear and cleavage, looking like a sexy shinto maidens. Mom was in her plaid aesthetic that cover most of her except she let her legs breath with obvious black lingerie...Anyways, Medicine was in less revealing dress wear, but kept her back most expose as it was backless lace dress. Kagerou really going the route of the tengu with her top exposing as much of her cleavage while wearing a ruby red necklace between her mountains. Tenshi was a simple white cocktail dress while still trying to match her hat with a pearl bracelet. They done up their hair in various ponytails or in Aya's case a tengu mask adorn on her head holding up her hair...where's my girl?
"Venus."...Wha, you think with this type of mask I wouldn't get blinded by hands, but it's possible. I chuckle and I can only hear this deep guttural distortion to my voice and I swore the mask open it's teeth like it's my new mouth.
"Ok, you can look now." Finally I turn around and...She is wearing a light blue sakura petal pattern kimono traditional style with pink tie on her midsection hugging her form, and wearing a modest silver necklace with a sapphire as it's gem. They done her up in make up that's for sure as her eyelids lids are a shade darker with her lipstick being same shade of pink as her eyes. I'll admit when I say she's the most beautiful woman in the room regardless of my personal body taste. She smiles at me. My mouth was agape which seem to cause concern.
"Ok, don't do that with that mask on. Jeez where do you find such stuff, and the clothes?" My mind is seal and you can't make me say shit Medicine, and don't you say it Satori. She laughs while covering her mouth with a fan.
"Well now you have to walk us to the shrine"...
...SHIT!
Satori got my left arm, Mom clutch my right with Medicine piggybacking. A certain man was right, life is pain. Now I have to go slow and careful down the path to the shrine atleast the orange trees keep my attention.
"I still think you could've ditch that dingy coat." Tenshi no matter what you say doesn't change the fact that I'm paranoid. Security coat will always be there. The incoming elbow told me that Satori didn't like that.
"You should rely on us more, the world isn't that bad." If it's with any of you it isn't an issue, but ferals are another issue or worse a malicious sentient yokai or what if a hunter comes around. People can be intrinsically nice or evil depending on context. Unfortunately, yokai and humans are both these things and even then a feral can become more sentient and start evolving into something grander. Even then, the people here aren't exactly vying for higher power without a fight.
Yet, now I'm playing politics with them all by playing hide n seek with their family. This is my life...talk about bothersome.
"Venus?"Yeah? I'm here what's wrong? Satori look up at me with concern before trying to shake the feeling she had. What are parts about Vector close off from her mindreading or something?
"You're mind was blank out for a minute...Not unheard of but it must be connected to something really secretive." I'm not doing on purpose. I put it up to stress then. The feral groan that came out this mask was all the others heard though.
"I take it back, stick to being silent cause that...You're gonna put people on edge." Yeah, but it's just for today. It's not that scary is it? I'll be sure to bring it out around this time next year and jump out at unsuspecting people.
"Please don't become like that umbrella." You know people have to act scare for Kogasa cause she's unable to scare people doesn't help that she's a babysitter. Byakuran's coexistence plan could work but it also works against us. I gotta stop thinking about that stuff as it shouldn't concern me.
"Oi, da ze! Got room for a few more?" Hey Marisa and... that's the underground tagging along with her. Including Koishi who ran up to her sister to wrench her from my arm. Finally, I can move slightly better.
"Sister and Brother! I'm so happy to see you two salutations friends of brother again." This time she had her power turn off so that she was seen by everyone and could hear her. Also,her third eye was more open than last time. That's good.
"Yes, real healing may begin for us all. Because, brother will help." This cause some confusion in everyone, but to me who at this point got used to her subconscious reading of people. Atleast she's happy. She nods while keeping her hands together with Satori who felt like she was being swung around by how energetic Koishi is. I have no choice really, my life is now wrap around myself like a cocoon of crazy cacophony of cantankerous proportions. In other words, FUBAR.
"What a nasty looking mask, I prefer you show your face more. I mean how else do you get ladies?" Yuugi is in a loose kimono holding her giant plate dish of alcohol. She looks over at mom and her grin widen.
"It's been so long Yuuka. Congratulations on the kid he looks so much like you how long ago where you pregnant?" Yuuka blink at me surprised at the sudden information with her mouth agape trying to find the right words to say only for Yuugi to bellowed a laugh.
"HAHAHAHA! Time sure flies when you're having fun yeah?" She's actually relaxed quite a bit...seriously what has happened before this beyond the famine. I'll make Vector tell me if need be.
"Satori you look stunning, but um...what is Venus wearing?" Clothes Orin they're clothes...oh the mask? Is from the fucking grimreaper you want it? Satori holds in a snicker at that while Koishi openly laugh as she let go and ran ahead of us.
"Friends we're almost to the party let's go sister!" She took on a floating position as she glided towards the first steps the place was lit up like Christmas tree and the noise was heard from down here.
"You can let me down now Venus we'll just fly up the steps." I stop and she climbs off me head before slowly flying upwards.
"Well, I better see Shion nice work lover boy." Never come back.
"Come on, let's get drunk together Yuuka and have a ball of time. See you later kiddos." Mom sigh while she shook her head at me and made a very focus face at me as they too took off.
"Reporter Lady let's race up the steps." Utsuho grabs Aya's arm in with little force they both treaded in front of us.
"BABY GIRL!? My shoes aren't design for running."
"I should go see Seki and see what she thinks of this. Also, thank you again for everything tell your mother I said thanks." We're going to the same spot... I'm just going to enjoy it with...
"Sorry, but I'm taking your girl for now lover boy." Orin took up Satori and she is dumbfounded as she struggles to not go on without me next to her.
"WE'LL SEE YOU LATER...ORIN STOP THIS AT ONCE! WHAT DO YOU MEAN NO!? Alone again, I can't wait to not be alone again...oh right heya Parsee.
"I'm jealous of your mask and ummm...thank you." A deep blush appear on her face and then she too was gone up the stairs.
I know that feeling...it's me.
"Finally. Damn you're a playa or something? Also, I'd never knew that the Tengu reporter had a nice ass. I'm usually kicking ass not admiring it. Also werewolf with the biggest set of puppies is just...perfection. Come on let's set this shit up right." I sigh.
"Is everything that comes out of your mouth purgatory?" Vector definitely understood engllish so I wasn't going to think it out for him.
"Yes, I also have to meet Hecate and Junko who are up there as well. I got a third band member too. It's our old friend Astergo. He plays bass." I realize he too had a same type of toothy mask only it's blood red and yeah the jaw unhinges to show off the actual throat of the person speaking...insanity.
"Name of this band?" He thought about it for a second.
"Paranoid,Paranoia, Schizoids."...
"Wonderful. I'm certain I'm the paranoid part of it?" He chuckles at me.
"Well nice seeing you. Imma come get you when it becomes nightfall until then...Have fun." The damn mask sickenly widen its smile before Vector vanish in the same tendril like manner.
"What a pain in my ass." Pot meet kettle.
Finally at the top it's colorful, loud and the
smell of food really pulls you in. I recognize the majority and saw the religious sects trying not to get close. Of course I stick out among the crowd. The current band was clearly the prismriver sisters with Raiko on drums...classy lady indeed.
"Yo! Over here quiet boy!"...It's Medicine waving towards my attention to the front of the shrine making my way past the food stalls. I almost didn't notice the larger stage near the front.
"My you're a special case of a man...very...unique." Shizuha Aki the older sister and the one behind autumn itself. Atleast here in Gensokyo she is. The gods of abundance and autumn the Aki sisters. Still wearing autumn colors even with the revealing dress.
"To think that he's together with a Satori. Are the other's not better suited for you?" Gossip god is as bad as her little sister. It's not that I don't find you attractive it's that I'm loyal and I trust Satori to believe my trust. I'm willing to admit I've liked what I've seen, but I already have a girl. In the near future, maybe you'll have some luck Shizuha. I look over at Medicine and made gesture of why? She shrugs...perfect.
"There you are, come on help me win something for Koishi." Finally,where we going first?
"Mouse n find stall. It's got cute little stuff tigers as a prize." How does this game work? Satori is dragging me to the Buddhist sect area of festival and yep there they are. Modesty has die on a hill as I'm seeing the admittedly busty monk in a satin black dress that showed past her naval the fair skin underneath. Stylized her gradient purple and brown hair in a low hanging ponytail.
"Oh my. A Satori and a rare male yokai how...wondrous."... Yeah she sounds like a mother speaking to you as a child, it's soft and high pitch even with her close eyes Byakuran was grace and beauty incarnate to the Myouren Buddhist sect, and the leader. She opens them slightly to give me a curious glance.
"Not your typical male yokai either, I hope you enjoy you're stay I would love for you to stay at our temple to learn the ways of the Buddha." Uhhh...no. I'm probably gonna go get my ass kick by your brother soon so that'll be awkward. Seriously Satori where the fuck is this game? She points to my left.
"How much for a round?" Nazrin pops up behind me suddenly...Damn...ITSA RAT!
"500 yen coin, grab the golden fake rat among my live rodents pen design to scramble it in only a minute. Have fun and win a Tiger Shoumon." Yeah, I see now as I flick a 500 yen coin for Nazrin as she catches ir. The mouse pen began its rapid rolling around as Nazrin drop a golden rat twice the size of any mouse into the crawling abyss.
Jirai focus
Time slowed down and I saw the golden glint and promptly plunge a hand directly on it and pull it out. Hefty piece of work. I gave Nazrin her rat statue and while Byakuran and Nazrin seem surprise yet they almost seem expectant of the result.
"Well, it is big piece of treasure, but you've won so here." The squeal from Satori I gotten as Nazrin handed her one. Absolutely painful but worth see her jump up and clap in happiness.
"EEEEEEE! Thank you,thank you, thank you!" We got some stares, so nudge her to keep it down. Still seeing her hug the stuff animal closely like that.
"Well, I guess I technically did lie to you atleast a little." Ya don't say? Look I'm fine playing circus games as long as you're happy I'm happy lets actually get like a candy apple or something for Koishi. Satori nods ecstatic at her prize. Why can't things just be like this? In this moment?
"The candy apples are at the Taoist sect area." Whose running these placements?
"Sorry, it's all I got from so much reading anyways its this way." The complete opposite direction of the corners? Yaaay.
"Hush child, you should be grateful." I huffed and look at the fanciful Yukari strutting her everything this time around I certainly saw a few guys stare at her ass as we walk.
"I'm gonna ignore that. So how has Gensokyo been for you child? Satori we should chat more often." It's great, it'll be better if I wasn't feeling this massive pit in my stomach like something is missing.
"I don't know how much I'd like a visit from you gap yokai. But visitors are always welcome." Yukari smiles underneath her fan. looking at us both intently before slipping back into the crowd. How the fuck do you lose sight of a woman like that?
"Holy Yama, that's a yokai face if I'd ever saw one." Charismatic, lightly playful, flirty. That's how I'll describe the Owlish Toyosamimmi no Miko. Man with her hair like that she is the Owl prince.
"Two candy apples please." The prince nods at us.
"Futo you got two more." I only now see her subordinate futo tending to a stand of caramel apples.
"Thou want anything else yes?" Oh God it sounds somewhat childish from her but yeah that's Futo's silver hair. I'm slowly feeling more drain.
"Here you go, oh right 1k yen please."
I gave her the pseudo dollar and needed to lay down. So much noise and confusion.
"You ok there kid or are you fascinated by my grace?" Not in the slightest Miko, I just feel so tired for once.
"Yo, it's time." Vector...he stood in front of me before putting his hand on my shoulder I felt extremely refreshed after that. What the hell?
"The more you stay near them, the more they'll take back.Anyways it's soon, but you need more mingling time. See ya fools later." He makes a peace sign and scurried away.
" You ok?" Yeah Satori anything else?
"Sister check out the Vampires.Mmmph." Of course the aristocracy is here.
"Well this is a surprise it's the minreaders and...You're new. So handsome, got anyone special in your life?" I pointed with a thumb at Satori and Remilia's mouth was slightly open from that. Is this how the older groups try to hook up for a night cause I now see why guys keep away. They're just the worse pick up artist cause they're bunch of nerds.
"Mister you look strong willing to play with me?" I'm not strong, I already died once, and I'm not dying to you either. Since I could only shake my head in disagreement at this. I'm not interested in going against you Flandre.
"Aww, some other time then." She kicks the ground lightly while trying to look innocent and cute. It'll work better if I didn't already know who you are. I better go find Vector now. Sorry Satori I'll be back soon.
"Uhh bye Venus."
"Bye friendly brother"
"That was a quick greeting."
"He didn't even say anything."
I went around the back of the shrine and rested at a pillar, breathing heavily...God this day is honestly taking everything out of me.
"Have some water." I took a swig from the cup and yeah that hit the spot and yep third fucked toothy mask and I recognize the clothes. Astergo.
"Alright touch him give him the sticks and we'll play a few for the girls." They both touch my shoulder again that energize feeling I had came back, I also gain the knowledge of drumming? This is stupid.
"Life is stupid.Stupid fun that is!Lets go woo the hearts of Gensokyo." Alright, I just want this day to be over now.
We walked up to that stage and I heard the sound of that mic ring out. The place was filled with faces I've met only for Vector to throw the mic at me as I caught in frustration...What the hell!!?
"NOW, THIS IS ALOT OF FINE LADIES TONIGHT! WE'RE PARANOID...PARANOIA...SCHIZOIDS. OUR DRUMMER CAN SING! SO I'LL JUST HELP OUR BASSIST WITH THE SOUND!"
Vector split himself into three and one materialize a guitar and the other lead guitar and Vector himself taking my place. What the fuck dude!
"Feel it in your bones fool!"
"I'm kicking your ass after this." He laughs as the guitars rev up the beat first.
"I count on it! As he begun a familiar tune...
Fuck, I do know this one.

When it ended I had my fist outstretched to the horizon with that red electricity I'm familiar with. It felt...right to finally say something to anyone that would listen. As I'm breathing hard and the others beside me seem exhausted as well. I could hear the cheers.
"So, whats the answer?" I looked at Vector and gaze at the yokai around me...I'm one of them now. I won't just let this place go.
"Fine, but only after winter." Velctor smile.
"YES, THE FINAL GIG! NOW GET ON DRUMS CAUSE I'M SINGING MY SHIT GET OUTTA HERE!" Dammit stopped pushing me.
Author notes:Oral Cigarettes and their song Dream in Drive I don't own anything just the ocs. The similarities and everything was purely coincidencental. I can finally rest. This was the most fanservicing one yet. I hope you've enjoyed it so far.
