Episode 11 - Candy Parasites

October 29th - Space

A strange asteroid is seen moving through the cosmos at high speed, his trajectory... Earth

"The stars, so beautiful, so big, so mysterious... What secrets hide beyond the barrier of our solar system... Perhaps is better we don't know the answer!" - Narrator

"Aliens vs Mars People 2: The Independence Day!" - Narrator

"What a stupid Movie!" - Says Iori watching the movie sitting in the studio with Maki

"Shut up Iori! This is one of the best parts, when that clueless woman ends up having her face taken by one of the alien parasites." - Maki

The woman of the tv is seem trying to remove something from her head

"Are you two enjoying the movie?" - Chizuru appears with three bowls of food

"I guess. Frankly I hate the programming of TV during this month, nothing but cheap looking terror movies from the 80s." - Iori

"Oh come on! The alien actually looks pretty real to me!" - Maki

"Iori, let Maki have fun with the movie, she finally has age enough to see it." - Chizuru

"But she is 15! This movies are the reason she later has nightmares and who has to comfort her at night... Me!" - Iori

"Shut up you two! I'm adult enough to watch this movie, besides we all know aliens aren't real." - Maki

"Tell that to the theorists of the Mars People." - Chizuru

*Ding Dong* - The sound of the doorbell is heard

"Oh must be Athena and the rest of the boys." - Chizuru

"..." - Iori stares at his bowl looking at Chizuru's stew

"What's wrong Iori? Not feeling hungry tonight?" - Maki

"How the hell does you and your sister eat all this spicy stuff? Her food is probably the reason I have hemorrhoids." - Iori

Chizuru opens the door with her finding with Athena and co

"Chizuru-san!" - Athena

"Hey, Chizuru!" - Says Kyo, Terry and Nakoruru behind Athena

"Good you all came, enter." - Chizuru

"You all know why I wanted this reunion to happen today. We have two days to discuss the vesturary for the concert in the spooky festival of Tokyo this 31th." - Chizuru

"So any ideas?" - Chizuru

"I was thinking we all should dress up as zombies." - Athena

"That sounds spooky." - Terry

"How about we dress up as if we were different Oni, like this." - Nakoruru brings this page from a book showcasing an Oni from old folklore tales

"Both are good ideas. I'll put them in the poll." - Chizuru

"Maybe we should all dress up as vampires and witches." - Kyo

"That could be another option, sure why not." - Chizuru

"Ok guys, poll is done, whoever wants to vote for zombies, rise up their hands!" - Says Chizuru as only Athena and Terry rise up their hands

"2 votes, and whoever wants to dress up as Onis?" - Chizur

Nakoruru and iori rise up their hands

"And lastly the ones who want to dress up as vampires and witches?" - Chizuru rises her hand alongside Kyo

"Well this sucks we have a tie." - Chizuru moves her head in denial

"Oh, I have an idea Ms. Kagura. How about we combine our ideas all together?" - Nakoruru

"What do you have in mind?" - Chizuru

Nakoruru approaches Chizuru's ear whispering something

"Mmmh, yes that sounds actually perfect!" - Chizuru

During the next day Chizuru is seem preparing the outfits for the band, buying the materials alongside Athena

"Thank you for helping me with the vestuary, Athena." - Chizuru

"Isn't a problem Chizuru. You know I like to design most of my vestuaries for our concerts myself. Maybe we can win the big prize of spooky festival." - Athena

"Truth to be told, I like having someone to talk that can understand me. My sister is too young to understand most of the troubles I deal with and Nakoruru-Well, she comes from a different time, literally." - Chizuru

"Chizuru, you have to understand she literally comes from the 18th century." - Athena

"I know. But sometimes is almost like the equivalent of talking with a caveman *Sigh*" - Chizuru

"I understand." - Athena

"Me Athena, me help you with halloween costumes! You understand?" - Athena starts acting like a caveman for the annoyance of Chizuru

"Stop it!" - Chizuru

"Stop what?" - Athena puts a sly smile

"Ha-ha-ha too funny, Athena." - Says Kagura with a sarcastic tone

"I was just playing a little, come on we need to finish this outfits for the 31th." - Athena and Chizuru spend the next day designing and making the outfits for the festival

As the two girls are seem putting together the costumes, they turn on the TV to heard something in the background

"Have you heard the news? About that strange meteorite that fell nearby in the outskirts of Tokyo?" - Athena

"I heard something about it. It seems it was just a meteor." - Chizuru

"So, how is your relationship with Kyo?" - Chizuru

"Is good-if you ignore the fact I'm older than him." - Athena

"Only for seven years, I mean Yagami is older than me for two years." - Chizuru

"Two years isn't that big compared to seven years." - Athena

"See that's why I don't like to think about that too much." - Athena

"If it makes you feel better, you look like someone of 18." - Chizuru

"*Sigh*" - Athena

October 31th - Morning

The two girls are seen packing up the vestuary for tonight's show

"Well they are finally done." - Chizuru

"Come on, put on your costume only to see how it looks." - Athena

"I dunno if." - Chizuru is hesitant

"You will look fine." - Athena convinces Chizuru to put on her witch outfit

After some moments, Chizuru appears sporting this outfit

"So how do I look!" - Chizuru

"Creepy! In a good sense, it looks better than I imagined, is just missing the make up but other than that, is good." - Athena

"I'm sure Yagami is going to like it." - Athena

"I hope. I'm also hope he likes the outfit I made for him." - Chizuru

"Stop being so worried, the band are going to love the outfits, now lets go to eat. I invite today." - Athena

But just when the two women left the room turning the lights off, a strange blue slime creature is seem crawling under the bed of Chizuru... The strange slime starts crawling to Chizuru's outfit

Some hours pass as we see the group coming out of the make up room sporting their new outfits, Chizuru dressed as a witch of green face, Athena dressed as a zombie bride, Kyo dressed as a vampire, Iori as a samurai, Terry as a werewolf, Nakoruru sporting a samurai armor and lastly Maki dressed as a cowboy

"Well we have some hours before the festival." - Athena

"What we can do while we wait?" - Athena

"I know! I know!" - Maki

"*Sigh* Yes Maki?" - Chizuru

"Lets get to ask for some candy around the nearby neighborhood!" - Maki

"No, we are too old to be going out for candy!" - Chizuru

"Oh come on, sister. In the meantime while the festival starts, come on!" - Maki

"I think Maki's idea is good, after all. We have enough time of waiting to get some snacks." - Nakoruru shows interest in going for some candy

"I mean we already have the outfits, might as well." - Athena

"Hmph!" - Iori

"*Sigh* Might as well, it would be like when we were kids all over again." - Chizuru

"Is going to be my first time going out for candy actually!" - Nakoruru

The group arrives at the neighborhood of Yanaka

"Alright guys, lets split up, me and Maki will go to the east, Iori and Athena go to the west, Kyo and Terry will to the west and Nakoruru will go to the south." - Says Kagura stopping the car bringing this plastic pumpking with all the members of the band going splitting up while the preparations for the event take place
The band are seen arriving at different houses, getting a decen size of candy in every door they knock

Chizuru is seem coming out with a bunch of candy in her pumpking after having knock on a nearby home

"(Where's Maki? I told that girl to not separate from me too much! But she never listens to me!)" - Chizuru

As Chizuru walks looking for Maki, she stumbles upon a german shepard dog eating from a trash can in her path, she jumps back scared

"Ahh!" - Chizuru reacts scared

"Oh is only a dog, what are you doing here at this hour little guy? You should return back home." - Chizuru walks passing by the strange dog scratching the trashcan not minding him

"I'll drag you with me bitch!" - Said a profound and deep voice to Chizuru as this one was about to leave the area

"Huh?" - Chizuru turns around feeling shivers realizing there's nobody around this path other than her... And that strange dog

"You?" - Chizuru points at the dog who after being pointed out nods his head showing this devilish smile to Chizuru

"Argggghhhh!" - Chizuru runs out of the area with all her forces

*Cack* - She crashes with Iori

"Kagura! What the hell is wrong with you?" - Iori

"D-Dog! Big demonic dog, profound voice! Eating from the trashcan! Ahhh!" - Chizuru hugs Yagami terrified

"Calm, calm. I'm already here, I'll go with you to some more houses, we still have 10 minutes before leaving." - Iori

"Yes, please come with me, Iori!" - Chizuru holds of the arm of Yagami all scared

"Maki there you are!" - Chizuru sees her sister walking around with a pumpking full of candy in her hands

"This night was amazing, sister! Look at all the tasty goodies I brought!" - Maki starts eating some ofher candy

"At least you had fun." - Chizuru feels shivers at remembering the infamous dog

Some more minutes pass as the band of fighters reunite again where Chizuru's car is, with half an hour to go to the festival of Tokyo

"Well that was a nice time killer, made me feel like a kid again." - Terry

"Good to see you guys had fun." - Chizuru enters in the car as the band move to where the festival is

Tokyo's Spooky Festival

Elisabeth Blanctorche is seem looking at the table of contest announcing the contest for the band of the night

"Elisabeth!" - Chizuru

"Finally you guys show up!" - Elisabeth

"We were waiting for your band, Chizuru." - Elisabeth

"Nice costumes by the way, that witch outfit fits you." - Elisabeth leaves to prepare the stuff from the contest

"(Was that a compliment or what?)" - Chizuru

The contest of the bands take place with Chizuru's band giving their best to the song they wrote for this festival

Chizuru is seem taking some food from he tables unaware some strange blue like insects are slowly making their way to some of the people in the festival

*Aplauses* - Chizuru's band ends their play with them getting a positive reaction from the judges

"Congratulations Chizuru, seems the judges really liked your band's play." - Elisabeth

"Your group might win the contest." - Elisabeth

"I hope so, me and Athena spended quite a while on this outfits, while Iori and the rest made the lyrics for the song." - Chizuru

"What is that smell!" - Elisabeth looks at the band of fighters arriving to reunite with Chizuru

"It smells like tobacco." - Elisabeth

"Oh must be my perfume, essence of Tobacco with vanilla." - Nakoruru

"That kid of yours is weird." - Elisabeth whispers to Chizuru

"She is different." - Chizuru

The moment of truth comes around as is time to see the contest winner being declared

"Thanks, thank everyone! Is an honor to have you all of here tonight, we heard alot of good music tonight, we saw alot of cool costumes but the moment of truth has arrived, who will the winner of the contest of this spooky festival?" - Elisabeth

"Let's see!" - Elisabeth opens the letter with her bringing the answer

"..." - Elisabeth is surprised when reading the name of winner

"The winner is The World Heroes band with their pirate outfits!" - Elisabeth

The world heroes band go the stage as Kyo, Iori, Terry, Athena and Nakoruru stare with the mouth open

"What? You have to be kidding!" - Chizuru almost wants to throw her hat out of fury

"Well that sucks!" - Maki

"They won? These idiots won?" - Iori

"Grrr... Well the least we can do is take our lost with dignity guys. *Sigh* Let's get out of here!" - Chizuru

"But Chizuru?" - Kyo

"Maybe we should stay?" - Athena

"I said lets get out of here!" - Chizuru sports a serious angry face not wanting to spend anymore time in this festival anymore

The band go back home with Chizuru leaving Kyo and Athena nearby the apartment of the ex-idol, Terry and Nakoruru around the neighborhood where the apartment complex they live in is and finally she returns to her apartment with Yagami and Maki

"What a waste of time!" - Chizuru and Yagami are seen talking on their bedroom

"Well we tried." - Iori

"Isn't fair, we put alot of effort in the presentation, the song, everything only for them to win like that." - Chizuru

"Well the night is still young." - Iori puts his hand on Kagura's shoulder

"Yes, you're right!" - Chizuru suddenly has an idea

"I need to vent this frustation someway, Iori. Would you be kind to help me with that?" - Says Chizuru with a sly smile moving the skirt of her outfit showing her leg to Yagami

"Alright! But be quiet, that sister of yours is still woke up." - Iori

"Oh I can be quiet." - Kagura and Yagami start kissing each other willing to vent their frustation after having lost the contest

Meanwhile

"Can you believe it Kyo? We lost to those World Heroes guys! All those hours designing the outfits for nothing!" - Athena is frustated as she is seem under Kyo with both having a talk in the middle of the kissing session

"It was unfair, but don't feel sad. Maybe the next year we will win." - Kyo

"Maybe you're right." - Athena

"Now come on, the night is still young. Let's enjoy it" - Kyo

"*Sigh* Yes, you're right. Is just a dumb trophy, let's enjoy the night, Kyo-san." - Athena

Terry and Nakoruru are seem walking around in the streets

"You know, I didn't expect to still see kids at this hour of the night looking for candy." - Nakoruru

"The night is still young after all." - Terry

"Yes, you're right Terry. I had a fun time in the festival, too bad we didn't won the contest, Ms. Kagura and Athena looked disappointed." - Nakoruru

"They put alot of effort in this costumes after all. But that's how life is, sometimes you win, sometimes you lose." - Terry

A kid appears clashing with both members of the band asking for some candy opening the top of her pumpking

"Sure, here is some candy from the ones I got." - Nakoruru has no trouble in giving the girl some of her candy she collected moments ago

"Nothing like making a kid smile, right Terry? Terry?" - Nakoruru realizes Terry became static

"Terry? Hello, is someone there!" - Nakoruru passes her hand in front of her friend only to see Terry's pupils becoming blue

"ARGH!" - Suddenly in a brief second Nakoruru's hand is grabed by such strong grip from Terry who slowly turns to look at her

"The age of free will is over, the age of the baterials has arrive!" - Says Terry in this strange robotic tone

"Terry, what is wrong with you! Leave me out!" - Nakoruru bites Terry's hand making him free her with the confused Bogard looking at Nakoruru with the same blank face blinking

"You! You dare to oppose the empire of the baterials?" - Terry

"Then I'll have to destroy you!" - Terry starts running towards Nakoruru but this jumps making Terry clash against the wall

"What is going on? Is this some kind of joke? Because if it is, isn't a very fun one to be honest!" - Nakoruru

"Stop! Give up yourself!" - Says another voice behind Nakoruru

"There's no place to run!" - Another voice is heard

"What?" - Nakoruru turns around only to get a surprise, seeing a bunch of people behind her approaching sporting the same look as Terry in their eyes and having slowly their skin become pale blue

"ARGHH!" - Nakoruru dodges the attempts to be grabed

*Whistle* - She whistles as a bird-like shadow is seem crossing the entire skies with Mamahaha approaching to save his owner taking her out of there

"Just what is going on!" - Nakoruru turns behind her, only to see the amount of people that had now be reunited there, all of them sporting the same strange eyes
Nakoruru flies to the apartment of Athena

"Athena! Athena!" - Nakoruru knocks on the door of the idol's room only to find the door semi-open

"..." - Nakoruru walks inside the room

"ARGH!" - Only for a hand to grab her by the foot slamming her on the ground

"Kyo-san!" - Nakoruru frees herself from Kyo's grip who looks exactly like Terry and everyone else

"ARGH!" - Two hands approach Nakoruru with this one seeing it was Athena also sporting this strange blue eyes

"There's no place to run, just accept your fate!" - Athena brings this strange insect trying to make Nakoruru eat it

"Ah!" - But for the surprise of Nakoruru the strange being gives up a deep roar when is approached to Nakoruru, acting with disgust for the shock of Nakoruru

"Huh?" - Athena

"Grr! What is that awful smell!" - Athena covers her nose freeing Nakoruru and so does Kyo when he was approaching her

"I have to go, must warn Ms. Kagura about this!" - Nakoruru jumps out of the window with Mamahaha passing by holding her

As Nakoruru manages to sneak in the apartment complex where Iori, Chizuru and Maki live, she founds the entire place to be deserted with none of the other people who live in this building around

"Ms. Kagura!" - Nakoruru

"Mr. Yagami!" - Nakoruru

"Maki!" - Nakoruru screams looking for Iori, Chizuru or Maki in the room of the couple

In that moment Nakoruru feels a shadow approaching her

"Stop!" - Nakoruru turns around aiming her knife at the stranger

"Wait! Is me, have you go crazy?" - Says a shocked Maki rising her arms

"Oh, is you Maki! I'm glad to see you're fine, what happened? And where's Chizuru and Iori?" - Nakoruru

"I have to tell them something." - Nakoruru

"Let me guess, it is related to them starting to act weird? Sporting some strange blue pupils and their skin becoming pale blue? Apart of acting like zombies?" - Says Maki as she looks at the window

"By Kamui!" - Nakoruru and Maki stare at the big army of people walking like zombies in the streets, all of them suspiciously directing themselves as the Spooky Festival

"What is going on?" - Nakoruru

"I don't know, my sister and her stupid boyfriend were doing their freaky things in their room, them they came out and tried to attack me, I had to hide from them, they left and I have been here before you appeared." - Maki grabs the bowl with Chizuru's stew deciding to eat

"We have to do something." - Nakoruru

"Oh sure, we are going to fight against an army of mind controlled people. Look Nakoruru, stop playing heroine and give up. Perhaps this is all just a big prank or something like that." - Maki

"Maki, this isn't normal. Moments ago I was trapped by Kyo and Athena, they tried to put a strange blue insect in me." - Nakoruru

"Sounds freaky! So that's what is causing this?" - Maki gets up from the couch

"Yes, something-some kind of being probably is who is causing all of this madness. And we have to stop it." - Nakoruru starts thinking

"Could it be..." - Nakoruru starts thinking of everything that happened until now, especially the reaction of that insect when Athena tried to put that thing in her mouth

*Sniff* - Nakoruru smells herself, realizing the penetrating smell of her cologne, vanilla essence mixed with tobacco is still around her

"Maki! I think I know how we could beat them!" - Nakoruru opens her eyes

"What now?" - Maki

"My perfume... My perfume could be the weakness of this beings!" - Nakoruru searches in her bag taking her perfume

She puts some of it on Maki

"With this, these strange beings that are controlling their minds shouldn't approach." - Nakoruru

"Are you sure about this? You really want to follow them!" - Maki points at the mess going outside the window

"Yes, but not before making a quick stop." - Nakoruru

Nakoruru and Maki arrive at the shopping mall nearby, they enter in the shop from where this perfume was buyed, Nakoruru brings all the bottles she can from the now abandoned store

"Want a cigar?" - Nakoruru also takes Maki to a food store where she finds alot of cigar boxes

"I don't smoke." - Maki

"Well you will have to now! If we want to confront this damn parasites, you will have to embrance the nicotine, sister!" - Nakoruru

"*Sigh* Fine I'll destroy my lungs if that returns my sister to normal!" - Maki

The girls use some make up to paint their skin blue and they get some contact glasses to pretend they are infected like the rest

"Follow me!" - Nakoruru and Maki pretend to be part of the group of zombies now directing themselves at the spooky festival

Tokyo's spooky festival

Both girls arrive at the super crowded festival

"Mantra! Mantra! Mantra!" - Are the words that come out of the screaming zombies in the crowd

"Mantra? What is that?" - Whispers Maki to Nakoruru as both stand among the crowd of possessed people

"I don't know, maybe some type of food?" - Nakoruru

"There's Kyo, Terry, Athena and Iori!" - Nakoruru sees the rest of the band among the crowd

From the stage a shadow steps up with this shadow being not other than the one of Chizuru, who sporting a look just like the rest stands in front of all of the group of zombies

"My people!" - Chizuru

"It makes me so happy to see how easy we managed to take over this city in a matter of minutes! My calculations that earth was the perfect earth to continue our plan to survive ended up being right in the end." - Chizuru

"Today all of us have taken over this city, but tomorrow it will be the world! Then the universe, the entire cosmos will submit to the baterials and the name Mantra-102 will be exclaimed with euphoria as the rest of the pathetic creatures in the universe bow to their godddess!" - Says Chizuru opening her arms

"Mantra! Mantra! Mantra!" - Everyone cheers after hearing that

"Wait a moment, the name of the being inside Chizuru-san, that is the so called Mantra!" - Nakoruru

"Oh great, my sister is the queen of this freaks." - Maki

"We have to do something, follow me." - Nakoruru and Maki sneak up from behind the tables

"During years we were prisioned by our creators the Aesir, back in our homeworld ubicated The Pleiades! We all showed them who was in charge when we devoured them. Of course sadly our resources started to become excase but now, this entire planet full of life, will be our biggest conquest!" - Mantra-102

"And a new age will be born from using and devouring this primitive creatures, this primitive monkeys! They will be useful to our species!" - Mantra-102

"And nobody will dare to stop us!" - In that moment Mantra-102 turns around stopping Nakoruru's blade who wanted to attack her sneaking behind her

"Well well, what do we have here, two humans who were pretending to be part of our kind. Hehehehe! You two must have some guts to try to approach like this." - Mantra kicks Nakoruru with her jumping trying to punch her in the ground

"ARGH!" - Nakoruru rolls around dodging the attack

"(I don't remember Ms. Kagura having this strength!)" - Nakoruru engages in a fight with Mantra as Maki attacks the group of zombies trying to get to the stage to protect their leader with the nicotine bombs

"ARGH!" - The group screams as they cover their eyes being impacted by the bombs Nakoruru made with tons of cigars

"What? How are you doing this?" - Mantra becomes surprised

"Argh! And what is that awful smell?" - Chizuru covers her nose

"Is my perfume, essence of vanilla, one of the ingredients is tobacco, tobacco contains nicotine and nicotine seems to be dangerous for your kind!" - Nakoruru

"Impossible, what kind of sustance is that! How we can have weakness, when the Aesir made us, we were created to be the guardians of our planet, we devoured all of our creators from the inside. We shouldn't have any weakness!" - Mantra grabs the hair of Chizuru unable to believe her kind has a weakness

"Is over Mantra, whatever was your plan here tonight, it ends!" - Nakoruru launches to attack Mantra pulling this tweezers

"Fool! You might have found a weakness for my kind that prevents you from being infected, but you will never get me out of the head of this stupid woman, I'll devour her brain and become stronger!" - Mantra struggles with Nakoruru as Maki is started to be cornered by the big amount of zombies

"Nakoruru! I think we are out of nicotine!" - Maki is holded by the zombified Kyo, Iori, Terry and Athena

"No! We have one last resort!" - Nakoruru jumps climbing the top of the stage for the surprise of Mantra, Maki and the rest

"Ahh!" - She jumps landing on the head of Chizuru with her covering her eyes

"Agh! What do you think you're doing, how many times I have to tell you? There's no way to beat us!" - Mantra

"Are you sure about that, I bet you have never tasted earth's food before!" - Nakoruru

"What?" - Mantra-102

"(I hope this works!)" - Opening her backpack Nakoruru brings a bowl where Chizuru's infamous stew was with her shoving the stew inside the mouth of Kagura

"Yuk!" - Chizuru reacts opening her eyes widely with Nakoruru jumping out of the head rolling seeing Mantra grab the head of Kagura after having eaten that spicy stew

"Ah! Ah! What is going on!" - Mantra screams grabing her stomach coughing falling to her knees as the rest of the zombies start replicating her actions feeling awful

"Huh?" - Maki

"This can't be *Cough* I'm feeling awful? *Cough*" - Mantra starts coughing like crazy

"Agh!" - Chizuru spits a strange bizarre blue insect twitching on the ground

"We did it, all thanks to the awful food of Ms. Kagura!" - Nakoruru

"Oh come on, isn't that bad! *Cough*" - Chizuru

"What is that thing?" - Wonders Chizuru grabing her head dizzy staring at the strange insect-like being

Nakoruru approaches the strange being

"That's Mantra-102! The being behind all of this!" - Nakoruru grabs the dying Mantra

"My plan was so perfect! We were going to rule the world..." - Says Mantra when Nakoruru grabs her by one of her legs

"Yummy!" - In that moment Nakoruru eats the strange being crushing Mantra-102 with her teeth killing her

"Mmmh! It tastes better than the beetles in Kamui Kotan!" - Says Nakoruru with a big smile

"..." - Both Chizuru and Maki cover their mouths wanting to throw up

After that, the group of zombified people start coughing, expulsing the corpses of Mantra's seeds and recovering their normal appearences

"Ah! What happened?" - Athena

"Where we are?" - Kyo

"Man, I'm so tired." - Terry

The Next Day - Tokyo Recording Music Studio

"Where's that girl anyway?" - Asks Chizuru realizing Nakoruru hasn't arrived

*Knock* - The sound of someone knocking at the door is heard

"Finally you arrive kid-AHHH!" - Chizuru is scared when she sees Nakoruru but her skin is pale blue, her eyes are blue and she sports a deep blank stare

"Brains! Ha! You fell for it Ms. Kagura!" - Nakoruru drops the act making Chizuru chuckle a little after realizing all of that was a joke

"Grr... Hehehe, You little devil! Come on, enter. We have work to do." - Chizuru

"Hehehe, happy halloween everyone!" - Says Nakoruru to the public before entering in the room

The End
