(OPEN)Lost LittleOne

[Little Sarah]

Kotos eyes narrowed more" you realize that if my little sister is harmed in anyway I will have no mercy for anything anymore.. and I will have no problem slaughtering you like a large floating cantaloupe Mellon."

Sarah blinked" canta....cantalope Mellon?" Sarah repeated what her brother said, raising one eyebrow "wow...not the most.....how would I explain it...." she scratched her head" that just doesn't sound like a smart thing to say at all really...your not a cantaloupe mellon..." she rubbed her head some more. She was only saying this loud enough for just Ozma and Zi to here "My big brother isn't the brightest bulb on the tree is he?" she rubbed her soft head of hair again and looked down "Heh...but...he is a good big brother.. "

She squeaked and sweat dropped again though, hearing Kaosu go off, then listened to Ozma. "Heh...well...he dose have a temper...but....I suppose...if hes not red eyed..hes easier to calm down then kao kao..." she tilted her head, Now calling kaosu, kao kao for fun. She liked to make up nicknames for people, it was just something kinda cute and funny she did. "but..wahts going on ..." she hugged onto Zi again, making sure not to let go. She smiled some "t..THank you for the hugs by the way" Her ears perked up" M..makes me feel better..."

Koto suddenly looked over at Kaosu, scratching his head" hey...bubble thing....what the hell is that all about? why the hell is the crazy messing Talking on the phone in the middle of a frigging fight with someone, thats not very sportslike...and its pretty dishonorable" he raised his eyebrow again.

Koto gripped hilt of his sword tighter, but be blinked, he felt the blade pulsing a little bit. He squeaked softly" Oh...Damnit..." he said gently, only loud enough for himself to hear. His ears twitched back against his head" not something we need to happen..he dosn't t need to come here.." he growled slightly to himself.

"Hey crazy Messing! Get off your phone and you and your bubble pal either give me my sister and whoever the hell else is in there, or continue the damn battle!...I'm kinda in a hurry now aswell!"

Sarah sighed "Big brother....needs to stop his temper..." her ears twitched back" its not nice to call people that word...even if they are kinda crazy..."

[Kitten4u]

Aya was relieved when the spell card broke, and loosed her grip on Kaosu. She was rather shocked when the goddess just seemed to explode literally. It hurt a lot, and sent her flying a couple of feet. Well, that was the last time she would get that close to Kaosu, or at least that's what she thought until it happened again. Crap, another explosion went off before she could even finish the thought, it was a spell card, and she was hit with another explosion, wasn't it? Well, she certainly couldn't dodge it. This must be one of those "bullshit" patterns people talked about so much. They even called "Peerless Wind God," one of Aya's spell cards, bullshit, but that didn't compare to the unfairness of this card. She really had no choice but to bomb.

Well, now it was just a matter of picking the right one to use, but she didn't have much time to think about it. The obvious choice would affect everyone on the field, even her sort-of ally Koto. Screw it, this hurt, and the only person she didn't want to push off a cliff right now was the little girl that was safely inside of the thing, so she was going to use that spell card. It was pretty powerful, powerful enough that she let Reimu borrow it for awhile while she was exploring underground, though it was a little different when Aya used it.

"Rain Deep in the Mountains!"

The explosions would actually still affect her while this card was active, so she started flailing around madly. Bullets spawned right on top of her, and would move in the direction she was moving and the opposite direction. It could be pretty powerful if she wasn't circling around Kaosu. The bullets were just flying everywhere without any real pattern. The shots were dense enough that the entire shot had to be macro dodged, and there were enough of them so that might prove to be difficult.

As she was circling around Kaosu, she noticed that she was speaking on some strange device she had never seen before. Aya had no idea why someone would want to speak to inanimate objects, but this goddess did seem a bit...uh...off. She evened seemed to be having a one-sided conversation with this thing. Eh, she knew that Kaosu was just playing with her, so this wasn't all that shocking, and it didn't really bother Aya that much. After all, she wasn't fighting all that seriously either.

[Genshuku]

Ozma, in reaction to what he said, merely said:

"Try me. And I am not any sort of fruit, or the occupants would have eaten their way out. Oh, and the only people that actually know how to call her would only do so in an extremely urgent situation. So, it's probably important."

Nothing like taking it literally, though she knew it was just a comparison. But to make sure no one got any ideas, Ozma decided to confirm to Sarah and Zi that she was no melon, via inside speech, of course.

"And no, I am not a melon. Though it is fun to mess with his head. And I don't think Kaosu is that fond of nicknames..."

Zi nodded in agreement with what Sarah said about hugs, as the hugs did help. Not only did they help Sarah, but they also helped Zi.

And then the battle resumed. Ozma kept at it, sending another beam at Koto. It was quite a simple attack, but it is still deadly. This time however, the beam continued to move towards Koto, still being the same over sized quickly shot beam it was before, just now it moves. The beam that was shot at Aya before finally ended as well.

Speaking of that, Kaosu quickly realized that Aya knew nothing about phones. The place did look like it was untouched by technology, anyhow. An old world, like so many others. But of course, those and this one were surely competent. Especially this one. In any case, she had to get going, but not before speaking to Ozma and delivering a final blow (for her first appearance, anyway). Surprisingly, she dodged the bullets with little effort as she talked.

"Ozma, the base seems to be running into some...difficulties. I leave the rest to you. See to it that you end this quickly, and be sure to give the crow her information and release one of the girls. I leave you two with a final blow."

And with that, a magical sphere that seemed to glow every color at once (quite striking) went from her hand, and moved a bit before stopping and beginning to rumble. And Kaosu was gone, faster than she appeared. The explosions had also subsided, except for one that was about to appear on Koto, which would be very painful if it decided to land it's mark.

Overhead, there seemed to be things...falling? Really cold things falling. Cold MISSILES falling. Ice? Yes, Ice.

Ozma was worried for a second due to Kaosu leaving, but then remembered herself: She was about to be done here herself, and she had no need to hold back whatsoever anymore. Even without Kaosu's support or strength lending (via being a shikigami and all), she was still above your average being. She simply did nothing as the ice missiles fell, for it would add to the dramatic effect when the move finished. If one was not paying attention, it was possible to be smacked by them. If one was foolish enough to do so, that person would be a nice block of ice. Otherwise, they hit the ground, and make the ground a nice slab of ice. (Which may give Aya a slight nostalgic feeling.) Ozma simply paid no attention to the bullets Aya was shooting, and taking quite a few of them.

[Little Sarah]

Koto hissed some " I know your njot a fruit ya idiot!" he snapped His eye's twitched just a little bit. he was obviously very angry still, but somehow keeping his temper down a bit.

Sarah blinked "I realized your not a Mellon.." she made a yipping like noise, she was still hugging onto Zi quite tightly. Her ears twitching up and down" but brother isn't the best at name calling..why he cause Mellon I don't know.... Guess he was just thinking of around ball shaped things he might be able to call you in order to insult you..." her ears flickered back a little bit more.

She listened, her little ears twitching up a bit "B..But only let one out.. I'm not going to leave Zi here..I'm not...NOT NOT NOT NOT NOT NOT NOT!" She hugged onto her friend tighter. her large yes squeezed shut" I no leave Zi! I can't..nononono"

Koto growled some. His ears flickered up some" you heard the crazy phyco red haired Lady...Let them out ya overgrown beach ball" he hissed crossing his arms a bit "and give the information to miss super nosy annoying reporter there"

He kept his eyes on Ozma, his arms crossed and his sword resting gently on one of his shoulders.

[Kitten4u]

Aya kept darting around in circles, though much to her displeasure her shots didn't seem to be hitting anyone. Sure, she wasn't really aiming, but considering how many she was shooting she expected it to hit someone. Well, whatever. There was no timer on this card, so she could literally keep doing this until she passed out. Well, apparently they were hitting Ozma, but it was kind of hard for her to tell since she was spinning around Kaosu so quickly.

Then she heard something very exciting. They were finally going to give her the information she wanted and the girl? Hurray! The nightmare was finally over! She didn't stop flying immediately though since she wasn't sure how long those explosions would last. The last thing Aya wanted was to be hit by another one of those because they seriously hurt. But once they seemed to stop she stopped her own spell card and flew towards Ozma with a big smile on her face. She readied her notebook and her pencil, she needed to make sure she wrote down all the details.

"You heard your boss. So what are you two trying to do anyway? It sounds like you're not really interested in destroying Gensokyo like I originally thought."

Aya didn't even seem to care that Kaosu just vanished, though she did find the reason somewhat interesting. A problem at the base? She would have to ask what this base was and where it was. Really, she just wanted to know everything about them. If they really didn't want to kill anyone (except for maybe some nameless fairies because no one cares about them) then this would make a kickass story for the Bunbunmaru. Not to mention that she was going to get that cute story about that girl and her idiot brother. She seemed considerably less annoyed now, though she still wouldn't mind beating the snot out of Koto, Ozma and Kaosu. Chances were that she wouldn't though just because fighting wasn't really her thing.

[Genshuku]

And Kaosu was gone, though her orb was still there, now shaking violently, and the ice missiles were just now crashing to the ground, making everything in it's range have a layer of ice. She did say she was leaving with a last blow, so Ozma wondered why no one was trying to avoid this last blow. Ozma flew upwards as the orb suddenly flew towards the ground, making the ice shatter into millions of deadly shards. Kaosu left with an attack that would certainly leave a mark if not kill someone*. But it was pretty if you weren't caught in it. Or, it could be pretty anyway. But you would probably be dead while admiring it from the inside.

The shards missed Ozma, as Ozma had flown up during all of this, taking care to not smack into a missle on the way up. And when the shards finally settled, Ozma flew back down, giving a comment to their non-noticing of several things.

"You all really should start paying more attention."

If it was possible for Ozma to do the *sweatdrop* right now, that would be exactly what it would have done. Then, Ozma began to talk internally once more.

"I knew you knew I wasn't a melon. Sigh...how do I get on conversations like these anyway. In any case, only one of you is getting out, and Kaosu already hinted as for which was staying with me.**"

Then, she spoke to Aya.

"Where did you get that idea?"

Ozma, even though Aya was doing the questioning, was asking questions. This was typical of Ozma, as Kaosu gave the order to answer her questions, but that order was flexible enough*** to the point where she could question where Aya got that assumption, as long as she ended up answering the questions in the end, and also pretty much change it to 'answering her questions', for the most part anyway.

"Not saying I am, not saying I am not. Just asking, as no one here even hinted as such."

Then Ozma spoke to Koto:

"Before I let one of them that, they should say goodbye and such. It shouldn't take long. You will be back with your sister. Just don't lose her again."

And with that, Ozma had said which one was staying and going for sure. Zi knew what her fate was, and clung to Sarah in fear. On noticing this, Ozma spoke outwardly again, though the inside people could hear it:

"Unless one decides to cling to the other to the point I can't let one out without the other, in which case I'll just have to take both."

And with that, the image of self-sacrifice came into Zi's mind. Her grip slightly loosened.

*(She overdid it again, dood.)
**(Italics explain everything.)
***(Because Chaos is flexible.)

[Little Sarah]

Koto Growled :I;m not going to loose her again..I'm a responsible Guardian!" he crossed his arms " this was the first time Ive lost her anyway..." course, Koto was lieing when he said that. Back when their parents were still Alive. allot of the times they would Let Koto watch Sarah, he would loose her and they all would have to go find her. In truth. Koto did care allot for his sister, but he could be simple minded and easily distracted at times, making it hard for him to keep track of his Little Sister, who was faster then him, and liked to explore a bit.

Sarah let out a small whimpering noise "b..but... I cant Leave Zi..." she had a loosened grip, but was still holding onto her friend "s..She didn't leave me when I had left the tank when you told me that if I didn't you would destroy the forest. w...why would I leave her..s...she stayed with me!" the little girl started crying and hugged onto Zi : I don't want her to be all hurt again..I..I saw what she was like last time..w..when she found me she was really weak and I don't want her to get that way again..no no no no no!" she was crying quite a bit now. Tears falling down her little face.

She yelped when Zi loosened her Grip on her. and she Looked up at Zi, sniffling some " I.... I want you to be okay..y..your my Friend.. I don't wanna leave my friends..." She whimpered and hugged Zi again. she whispered something so only Zi could Hear it "a..and even if I was released out of here, I would make big brother go and look for you and save you..." she sniffled and nuzzled her sad little face against Zi "I would Save you.."

Kotos Ears twitched back against his head some. He snarled a bit. arms Crossed and looking away a moment. He knew his sister was about to be released, he was relived for that. but he knew definitely that his sister was going to do anything to help her friend, and she was going to make him do it too, even though he didn't want to help someone he didn't know. He grumbled something to himself.

[Kitten4u]

"Some person that was working for you told me that," she shrugged. "So, that didn't really answer my question. Do you want to destroy Gensokyo?"

Aya was looking directly into Ozma's...uh...pretty colors, though she did notice the attack going off below them. She was glad that she just flew up to where Ozma was the second Kaosu said that she would get her questions answered, and that she didn't really have to deal with that. Of course, when Ozma went higher so did Aya. It's hard to interrogate interview people (or beach balls) when they're far away. Oh, and it was also nice that she/it seemed to know where the attack would hit, so she/it would obviously move to a place where it wouldn't get hit, though that wasn't nearly as important as the first reason.

Aya just sighed when she heard Sarah from inside of the beach ball. It was pretty clear that there was someone else in there, though she had no idea who this 'Zi' person was. The name sounded kind of familiar though. But that wasn't important right now. It would be nice if she could save both on principle, but that's not why she was here. She was here to rescue Sarah and to get her story. That was it. However, now was not the time to openly say such things, she needed to convince Sarah that letting it take 'Zi' was the right thing to do. Fortunately, Aya was a reporter and therefore was very good at manipulating words. The best part was there wasn't even any need to lie!

"Sarah, just think about this for a second. If you leave and let them take Zi then you'll be able to rescue her later," Zi was female right? Well, this was Gensokyo, so it was probably a safe assumption. "But if you get captured too then you won't be able to rescue her." Hopefully that would be enough to convince her to just let go because this was getting kind of annoying.

[Genshuku]

Pretty colors indeed.

Ozma sighed at what Aya said: Someone let it slip. But, the question would have been answered anyway.

"Well, whoever said that is right. We do not want to destroy all of Gensokyo, but if things do not go right here, we will have to. What these 'right things' are will become obvious in time, especially to the curious ones."

Ozma noticed that when Aya spoke to the people inside her, that they really had a point. It's what they were trying to do in the first place, from the very beginning of that plan. All's well ends slightly well. Or something. Only thing that was off about that was that Zi's gender was technically 'it'. But, she did have an appearance of a she, so of course it didn't really matter. She acted like a girl anyway.

Koto spoke about him being a responsible guardian. Ozma knew that a true responsible guardian would not lose the person that they were guarding for as long as...10 minutes. And Ozma already knew that he had lost her a lot anyway.

"Riiiggghhtt..."

The comment was filled to the rim with sarcasm.

And look, the people inside were saying the same thing as the reporter was. So it seemed they all finally got it now (except maybe Koto). One thing was for certain, Zi would be kept in good condition this time around, due to having been found a new use. So, an internal talk:

"As a now useful robot, we will keep you in good condition. And rescue will be quite possible, in fact.* So there is no more worrying, unless you can't get through the trials to come. But I expect that it will be possible for your guardian here..."

And with this said, Zi nodded in understanding, and released her grip, and a section of the bottom of Ozma became obviously pass-through. Ozma went back to the icy ground (which actually seemed to be free of ice shards) in order to drop off Sarah without making her jump (which at the height she was at, would have killed her). The section that became obviously pass-through was not right below Sarah, so she could say a last (for now) goodbye. Zi spoke her last (for now) goodbye, with a 'somewhat' happy sound to it, as Sarah was going free after all, and Zi knew that she did the right thing. Zi waved good-bye, while saying:

"Ziiiiiiii."

This means Aya will have to move back down. How irritating.** Well, it seemed to be at almost ground level, so standing was possible while remaining at almost eye level.

Speaking of Aya, Ozma turned her attention to her again and said:

"Oh, and when Kaosu said 'give you information', I am, but I can't say everything, but I will say a lot. But of course, consider yourself lucky that I'm answering your questions at all. Feel free to ask as much as you feel like before you are through, just don't repeat the same one over again. If you do that just to tangle up my time, I might just ditch you."

Why did Ozma add that last bit? Well, why not?***

*(Stage 2 or 3. And though she will be kept in good condition, what about her room, dood? Is it better than ours, dood?)
**(For Aya, anyway.)
***(With chaos, no reason IS a reason, dood.)

[Little Sarah]

Sarah's ears twitched back against her little head, she knew they were right, it was just. Something about Leaving her Friend Made the Little girl Feel Terrible. She whimpered again. Nuzzling Zi one more time, still crying a little bit. She sniffled and whispered" Were gonna come after and Rescue You..Okay.. Like I said..I'm not going to Abandon my friend."Little Sarah seemed to Hand zi something secretly. Her ears still twitching back against her head "we are coming to rescue you... we are..." she repeated, before finally going Though the Pass though Part.

Koto actually ran that Way. and caught his sister, even if the Fall wouldn't of hurt his Sister, he still didn't like to see her Fall. It bugged him. She smiled ad seemed to hug her tightly in a Brotherly Way. "thank god your alright.." he sniffled Some. He even seemed to be crying a little bit. "I'm sorry, I didn;t mean to Loose you..I'm sorry.." He seemed Oblivious to Everyone else around at the moment, as if his Anger just kind of disappeared into Nowhere. He was just that Happy too see his Sister was okay. despite all His shortcoming, and the fact that hes distracted Easily, and has a habit of loosing her. Koto really did care about his sister Allot. Which would explain how easily worried he became when she was Lost, even if it was his fault.

"b...Big brother..." Sarah hugged Koto right back, nuzzling her head against his shirt, wiping the Tears she had going down her Face away. Koto put his hand on the back of her head and nuzzled his nose into her Hair. then lifted his head back up again and looked at Her, then at her arm "y..yourr arm..t..the bandages got undone..I'm sorry..we need to fix that again" he hugged closer.

Sarah sniffled again. Nodding. But she Looked Over at Ozma, her ears back "Y..You better not have Lied to Me...z..Zi better be okay when we go to rescue her...I..I don't wanna see her hurt again!" her voice was actually a little stronger then it had been "
y..You better not have lied!"

[Kitten4u]

Today was finally starting to go better. Reporters weren't supposed to fight (right?) so Aya was very happy when the fight seemed to be over. Plus, she was getting the information she wanted, AND she was going to get that cute story too. At the same time. Today wasn't just starting to get better, it was starting to get awesome. She swooped down and made sure to get a shot of Koto and Sarah hugging as it would be the perfect, adorable material for her paper. Of course, she had some questions for them too, but she figured that they both owed her at this point and they would sit still until she was done talking to Ozma whereas Ozma might just leave, so she decided that she should interview Ozma first.

"Can you two wait for a minute while I speak to Ozma?"

Aya was in interview mode now, so she was considerably more polite. Of course, if Koto decided to be a jerk and leave she would use her amazing Tengu senses to track him down where she would then chew him out and interview him anyway. She was tenacious, curious and devoted to her paper, which was a deadly combination to those that tried to avoid her. Of course, despite how cute this situation was now she couldn't help but laugh silently to herself when Koto claimed that he was a competent guardian. He was seriously going to hate what she was going to write, but she didn't mind. It was the truth and she only reported the truth.

Ozma's answer was pretty interesting. It was basically saying no...but yes. Those people were always funny. So technically this goddess didn't want to destroy Gensokyo, but she would if certain things didn't happen. Aya thought it was silly that they simply didn't explain what things they wanted to happen if they really didn't want to destroy Gensokyo, but then again this goddess was just talking to herself in the middle of a battle. Their sanity and their ability to think clearly must be question. She made a note about all this in her notebook. Though, even if those things would become clear nothing would make them clearer than it explaining them.

"What are those 'things'?"

The next obvious question was why they were thinking about destroying Gensokyo if they didn't want to destroy it. She understood that sometimes people had to do things that they didn't want to do, in fact since Aya was part of a larger organization she frequently had to do things she didn't want to do and didn't always get her way. So naturally she wanted to know why they were doing all this in the first place.

"I you don't want to destroy Gensokyo then why are you even thinking about doing so?"

As harsh as it sounded she didn't really care about this Zi person's situation right now. Aya's done enough fighting for one day, so she wasn't even going to try to save her yet and she probably wouldn't try unless she would get something out of it. Being nice to a little girl didn't quite cut it either. Speaking of that little girl she glanced over at Sarah and Koto to make sure that they hadn't run away yet. If they were starting to walk away she would yell at them, tell them that it wouldn't be long before she could interview them and that they should wait a second. If that didn't work she would guilt the girl into staying since Aya basically saved her. If they weren't running off she would simply look back into Ozma's ey--pretty colors.

[Genshuku]

"I don't lie. I either don't say anything or I tell the truth. It's far easier that way, so I don't have lies weighing me down my entire life."

Ozma spoke to Sarah, saying these words. She sounded pretty honest about it, though this would not stop anyone paranoid of lies. Then, she answered Aya's first question, then her second.

"A castle that we planted in Gensokyo's Forest of Magic 'who knows how long ago' that happens to be completely invisible at the moment. It should become visible soon. As for why, it's one of the things I can't and won't say, and there is no way that the press will get me to say it, or anyone else. Sorry."

Ozma continued to swirl about where she was at, somehow remaining patient. But there's something she needed to say for kicks.

"Is it uncomfortable interviewing a giant ball like this? I can change forms, you know."

Perhaps she would shift into something else (a pyramid, anyone?) for the hell of it/just to bug Aya, or into a humanoid form to make this easier. That form was always more uncomfortable for herself, but hey. She was going home after this anyway.

(Short, but I have to post some time. It would suck to leave this in limbo* forever.)

*(It would be nice if I could play limbo, dood. But my legs are stubs, so...)

[Little Sarah]

Koto growled at Aya "you Realize you shouldn't be taking happy snaps right now don't you?" he asked, making sure Sarah was okay and not hurt at all, side from her injury. he sighed and set her on the ground finally, looking Over at Ozma again, his eyes were narrowed angerily. he wasn't happy cause he knew his little sister was sad about her friend being stuck in that thing still, and he knew that she wanted her free now.

"Now Listen Big..round..Mellon.. Ball..Evil..Thing.." Koto Really didn't know what to call it. " I know you told my sister your not lieing, and you wouldn't.. But I swear if you are lieing Your going to regret it and I can promise you that!" he snarled some, showing his fangs again.

Sarah seemed to hold onto her brothers Pant Leg. She looked up at Ozma and still made a small sad whimpering noise, looking down at the ground. She felt terrible that she couldn't help Zi now. She was even still crying a little bit. She wanted to help her friend, she really did.

however, something else seemed to catch the small raccoon girls attention. Her little nose twitched ,her ears back against her head" Uhh...b..b....big brother.." she started to pull at his pant leg, she was looking a little panicked.

Koto didn't seem to hear her, he was still paying attention to Ozma, and Aya both. he didn't seem to hear his sister.

Sarah kept pulling at his Pant Leg: b..big brother..t..that scent..theres a scent comeing.." she seemed really afraid right now. "b..Big brother pay atention...."

Koto still couldn't hear her for some reason. he was too set on listening to the conversation, and he couldn't smell the scent as well as Sarah could.

[Kitten4u]

Well, at least the thing decided to give her some information. Okay, so there's an invisible castle in the middle of the Forest of Magic that appeared in Gensokyo on xx day of xx month. However, it was not going to stay like that forever, or even for that long. That basically meant that they had to do something before they could reveal this castle, and as a reporter Aya needed to figure out what this "something" was. Well at least she had somewhere to go now or she might have been annoyed that Ozma didn't answer her second question and didn't even adress the first.

"Don't worry, I'm a professional er..." she wasn't sure if she should call this thing a sir or a ma'm, so she didn't say either. Aya was now in interview mode, so she was considerably more polite even if the person she was interviewing wasn't. "So don't worry about me, just stay in whatever form you're more comfortable with. Anyway, Kaosu wants us to beat her up for reasons you can't explain correct? Then why keep the castle invisible? No one's going to go if they can't find the castle. And why did you choose the Forest of Magic?"

The last question puzzled her a bit. Sure this god was probably an outsider, but her choice of locations made that very obvious. No one went to the Forest of Magic, and most people were actually afraid of it. However, if she stuck her castle on the top of Youkai Mountain for example every tengu and most of the kappa would gladly beat the snot out of her. She'd even get some crazy strong humans that could actually take on the kappa and the tengu heading up there to beat her up as well. Not to mention the two gods at the top of the mountain and their shrine maiden would want to go pummel her too, particularly one of the gods. She already doesn't like that she has to share faith with whatever the Hakurei Diety is, and she would be beyond pissed if she found out that another god made its home on "HER" mountain. But whatever.

"What is 'Zi'?"

That was another thing that was bugging her. Zi seemed to be whatever the other girl inside of Ozma was called. Why would a god stoop as low as to kidnap a little girl's friend? She didn't get a good look at this Zi person, so she didn't know if it was a little girl as well, but that did seem like a safe assumption. That kid must be pretty important if they were willing to make a sweet, innocent child so upset. Naturally Aya got a picture of this since such small details were very important. Of course she got a picture of Ozma as well, though she was dissapointed that her camera could only take black and white photos.

[Genshuku]

Ozma began to answer her questions, the last to the first, in that order.

"...Sigh. You all seem to be distracted by the fact I'm a giant ball at the moment. Ah well. I would change forms, but then I could accidentally crush Zi*. And as this is my natural form, I might as well stay in it. And Zi is a robot that is able to convert energy, of all kinds. Like for example, converting wind energy into electrical energy, or converting steam energy into nuclear energy**. And the reason she kept it invisible was so that we could get people to know about it before they could actually get in, and will therefore come in larger numbers at once. Why she picked here instead of the mountain...I told her to put it on the mountain, but nooo...Well, I wouldn't know what she's thinking. But, she insisted."

Then, Ozma noted Koto, who had called her evil. Le sigh. Also, she/it heard Sarah.

"I'm not evil, and I'm not lieing. Knowing all of this, I have nothing to fear or regret. Oh, and your sister is mentioning a scent coming. Perhaps you should be a little more...aware of things like your sister instead of being angry at me for no reason, and calling me things that I am not."

*(Oh, right. Her, dood. Whoops.)
**(Completely unrelated to the kappa, dood. She's just listing examples she knows they might not get. As a being of chaos, dood.)

((Ozma is in 'being interviewed' mode. Posts are notably shorter.))
((The above is an excuse, but I have to post sometime, right?)
