The Scarlet Devil Mansion [Open]

[Schala]

Woah. This was going to be tough. Katrina thought, The best way to not get pulled in is to grab something that's not moving.

The problem was that everything seemed to be moving.

Except...

"Quick! Everyone! Grab the gate!" Katrina called out. She then proceeded to lunge for the gate to the mansion and held on with her tightest grip. The suction force made her hair and skirt swish as if there were a really strong wind.

[xxhikaruxx]

Tsukiomi watched as he grabbed on to the gate with his might. Then he looked at Kanda getting pulled in. He thought, Reckless Agyel.... He's my only source to find all the shards of that damn stone. Tsukiomi immediately took off. Haru was worried, she used her telecnic force to hold Tsukiomi back from falling into the portal. Tsukiomi grabbed Kanda by the collar, he thought, This ain't my style, but I got to do something about this man... I beleive Agyels can track down the shards of the stone... I need an alliance with this man... Fighting him wouldn't di me any good... I can only sense the location of the flow of energy... I think this Agyel might be our key to success... Haru was getting tired, she couldn't hold her telenic force any longer. Tsukiomi tried hard to get away from this black whole. Kanda stared up at Tsukiomi, He spoke "If it isn't you again... What brings you back, I thought you ran away..."
"..." Tsukiomi gave him no response, he just stared back at him as he kicked off the air. He thought, I guess I'll just have to waste energy and use the Great Sword. Tsukiomi put forth a large reserve of his energy into his Katana amplifying the blade by multiple times. Tsukiomi's blade was now 20 meters long of pure energy. Tsukiomi stabbed it into the ground shouted "Haru! The sling shot, Now!"
"Yes, Tsukiomi" Haru nodded, then she pulled her hands as her energy drained fast. Tsukiomi flexed his muscles and flung himself as far as he could. He flung himself 1 meter away from the gate. He started getting pulled again. Haru felt like she was about to faint. This was bad. Tsukiyomi stuck his sword into the ground, as he got pulled back, no longer with the 20 meter long extension. Haru shouted at him "Use your great sword and extend yourself here!"
"I can't!" Tsukiyomi shouted back "I'll use up all my energy. That move is only for slaughtering my opponents."
"You are hopeless" sighed Kanda "... Wait... Yumi and Hikaru… They’ll get pulled in.”
“Be grateful I’m risking my life to save yours.” Tsukiyomi said angrily “We don’t have time to care about another life… Everyone will die some day, because of our sins. Isn’t that right?”
“…” At this moment, Kanda had already shut up. He knew this was the exact same thing he said to Katrina. All he did was stab his spear into the ground while being held on Tsukiomi’s shoulder. The both of them used teamwork to try getting closer to the gate. Tears started dropping from Haru’s eyes, she looked up at Tsukiomi “I… I can’t hold it any longer… Im sorry Tsukiomi… I’m sorry…”
“Haru! Stop wasting your energy!” Tsukiyomi shouted “Let go! You’ll pass out!”
“I can’t!” cried Haru in return “I can’t live without you.”
Yumi was getting pulled by the force along with Hikaru as both of them couldn’t fight at the moment. Yumi looks arround realizing that she could move her left arm. She reached for her cards and grabbed 5 cards. She looked at them, she could not believe her luck. It was a royal straight besides the fact that it was also a flush of spades, the best hand in Poker 5 hand. Yumi casted her spell, Royal Straight and then the cards disappeared summoning a huge knight in shinying Armor. The Knight picked up both Yumi and Hikaru and arrived near the gate where Yumi could grab on to the bars. She looked at her sister striaght in the eyes, she saw her crying. Of course, she didn’t know that Haru was her sister but she felt pity for her as she held on to the bars of the gate with her left arm. Yumi had abnormal strength so she held on tight. She created a clone to hold on to Hikaru. She commanded her knight in shining armor to recue Tsukiyomi and Kanda “Royal Straight! Go!”
The knight nodded and then flung his hand out knocking Kanda and Tsukiomi toward the gate. Kanda and Tsukiomi held on. Haru was crying while she embraced Tsukiyomi. Kanda looked at them with a confused look, he felt as if something was missing… He then remembered the human heart. Kanda couldn’t feel anything and that couldn’t upset him either. He just held on the gate for dear life. The heavy knight started to get pulled. It walked and walked toward Yumi as the forced pulled him at the same time. The Knight looked like he was walking in place. Like not moving. Yumi looked at Rekainas, the boy. She said “Royal Straight! Go save everyone from the portal!!”
The knight took off the lent out his hand to the boy. It said nothing, he just extended his hand out to Rekainas who needed help.

[Reshinage Talaron]

Who's holding my hand?
That didn't matter now. He knew he needed that extra boost, something to hang on to. The spell was fading, and had only helped in keeping him where he was. It didn't matter who saved him, and frankly he was too tired to see straight anyway. A few seconds later, the spell began to fade away. After what felt like hours, Rekainas passed out from exaustion. His reserves had been drained to nothing, and he needed rest. He did hope whoever caught him didn't intend upon capturing him... But not much else ran through the head of someone who has recently passed out.

[dusk]

All of a sudden, the suction stopped, and from the black hole, all the stuff sucked up began to emerge, clumped together, before there was a large blast, sending everything she had gathered flying in all directions.

In the middle of the nature bomb was Flandre, who was starting to look more than a little winded.

[Augen]

Meiling opened her eyes... How long had she been out? She didn't know. But it felt like all the muscles had been torn from her body. Probably Flandre again... That, and somebody was clinging onto her! Not good, not good! Meiling quickly rolled over to face the girl who had grabbed onto her. "Hadouk--"

Suddenly, Flandre stopped herself. She realized that not only had the intruder been holding onto her clothing, but there was also another person. A tongue, coiled around Meiling's ankle. "A... Akane? You're still alive?"

She was met with no answer... But the tongue was definately moist. All the answer she needed. But that could be saved for another time. There were still intruders here. And this needed to be adressed. "Who are you," Meiling asked, looking down at Carmellia.

[Reshinage Talaron]

It seemed as if Rekainas had spent ages in darkness. He came to to realize that the dark hole in nature was gone. Right in the middle was a tired Flandre. But Flandre was not yet important, he needed to thanks this mysterious person who had saved his life.
Finally now on the ground, he managed, a quick "Thanks..." And then realized he was still drained almost completely. After a while lying down, he could barely even move around. Getting up slowly, he walked near a rock that had been firm and rested for a while, feeling stronger by the minute.
Now to get some food.... Hopefully....
He was hungry, and decided to try the lake water, then reconsidered. He made a fire from nearby deadfall to assess what sort of damage there was. Things did not look bright for the wildlife, but the mansion (and the library!) stayed still, and also the fighters from before had a better chance now then any other time. It was the best time to attack, unless Flandre simply gave up. Tired still, but getting better, Rekainas lay down, eventually leading into sleep.

[recon5]

As Flandre's spellcard ended, Korochi dropped into the lake with a phenomenal splash and lay still. She felt as if all her bones had been dislocated and she suspected that her Orochi form had gained a bit of extra length after being stretched so hard for so long.

It wasn't time to relax just yet. The numerous open wounds on Korochi's current form were being soaked in the murky lake water, not healthy at all by any definition of the word. With a long, shuddering breath she dragged all her mass inward and assumed her regular human-like form, after which she crawled out of the water and lay on her back to rest and wait to see what would happen next.

----

Carmellia flinched and froze when Meiling began to call out her attack, and even after the gatekeeper was distracted she was too afraid to move or say anything. She heard Meiling's question clearly but she was unable to do anything other than staring at the gatekeeper with widened eyes.

[Schala]

Katrina could do nothing but watch the battle as it raged on, and she gasped when she saw the hole pull Hikaru in.

Another young man who had recently arrived had grabbed a boy's hand. The boy seemed to also be recent.

Then it stopped. Hikaru and the youkai girl flew out of the hole, along with everything else it had sucked in in what seemed like a clump of them.

She let go of the gate and ran to Hikaru's side, not noticing the gatekeeper neared Carmellia.

[shiningdrake]

Remilia had actually been outside of the mansion, visiting the Hakurei Shrine. Eventually though, driving Reimu and Marisa insane had gotten boring, and she decided to head back to the mansion. What she found... Did not put her in a good mood. At all. And it's not a good thing when you make fate angry.

Remilia of course had her parasol with her, and she shielded herself from the sun as she flew across the lake. But now, she saw what was happening... Flandre had come outside, Meiling looked to have been beaten up pretty badly, as did Akane, who was outside as well.

The mistress of the Scarlet Devil Mansion, and more importantly, fate itself, refused to stand for this. These intruders would die. If they'd managed to survive this long against Flandre, who looked exhausted, and take out Meiling, it was time for her personal intervention. And when she was truly fighting seriously, anyone who had incurred her wrath was screwed. Completely. After all, there were very few who could fight against fate~

Remilia noticed something strange however... One of the intruders... Fate appeared to be altered around him. And she didn't recognize him, so it certainly hadn't been her doing... Perhaps he was the cause of all of this. No matter. She was going to interfere, and the twisted fate would become what she wanted it to... And she wanted him to die.

Remilia drew her Gungnir, and threw it straight at the intruder with the altered fate. Meanwhile, she called down, "So, planning on invading the mansion of fate? You could have simply asked to see me, and waited for me to return. I have nothing against guests. However, after harming my friends... You will all die." Then, she called out, "Divine Judgement~ Devil of Fate!"

A cage of criss-crossing blue lasers came out from Remilia, with a large area around her being so thick that it was impossible to see anything. She took advantage of this to move around, so that any counterattacks were less likely to hit her. There were very small spaces that her targets could take advantage of to avoid being hit by the lasers... Though those spaces were far too small to avoid the incredible barrage of huge bullets that would come toward them. However, the lasers would fade just before the bullets reached them if they were far enough away, giving them just a small chance to dodge... If they were good enough. Which was unlikely, given the density of the bullets, gaps were small, and the walls were thick. Then once those bullets were far enough away to be irrelevant, the attack would repeat.

This spellcard was the true power of one that anyone who had fought her when she was NOT trying to obliterate them from existence would likely know well. Back in the Scarlet Mist incident, when Reimu and Marisa had interfered, she hadn't been fighting truly seriously. But now... These people had incurred her wrath. And this was just her first spellcard...

[Reshinage Talaron]

"What's this? Another rude awakening..."
Rekainas suddenly realize his position. Gigantic lasers were flying at him, and he was suddenly incredibly grateful for rest. However, discretion seemed to be the best way out of this. He was going to die from lasers otherwise, no doubt. Rekainas flew out of the attack's range, and gathered himself for a final assault, his strongest spellcard. Then he realized just who was fighting here- the culprit of the previously reported "red mist" incident.Rekainas decided perhaps discretion was the better part of valor, and silently stood on support in case anyone needed it.


For his sake, he truly hoped nobody needed it.
