Yukari Yakumo

After the train had crashed, the fire soon began to be extinguished, though not by normal means. It seemed that only the Youkai had noticed the faint trace of a power in use, but, then again, she might be the only one to be able to notice such forces. The girl in blue almost immediately ran to the aid of the red and black suited man and asked for aid, who seemed to be regenerating from the blow, while the 'wild man' broke down laughing and clapping his hands. All the while, the man with the white hair began to tell the girl in blue to give up and stop trying to heal the foolish man. The odd thing about this, however, was that the human seemed to be manipulating the water to use the element's concept of purification and healing, whereas the white-haired man began to mumble about 'prana'. Things like these, Yukari surely has heard once before, but she couldn't place a finger on it. Either way, it seems that at least three of these humans at least weren't normal, with the Indiana Jones (Now she remembers!) rip-off rolling his eyes at the sight of the train wreck, which can be seen as a sign that he has to put up with the abnormal in some way as well.

Then, the man who tried to call dibs on her stood up, teleporting all over the place and spouting absolute nonsense to the wild man and the not-Indiana Jones before going back to her and talking about being pregnant. "And people say that I'm obnoxious..." Yukari muttered to herself as she stared at the man. "Maybe I should grab that womb of yours and give it to my shikigami. Then they would have a regenerating meal and thus an endless feast of human flesh." She grinned sadistically, almost rivaling that of Yuuka Kazami. If someone were to know her as she was usually in Gensokyo, the effect of the grin would've multiplied because of the fact that no one really knew her as one to grin at such things. However, everyone almost forgets that she herself was a Youkai, who eats human flesh and relishes in the chaos within the world of a human, if it didn't really effect Gensokyo itself.

And yet, she remembered, no one at least gave an answer to her offer to have some tea as they introduced themselves. "How very rude..." She uttered to herself, with multiple contexts behind it.

“Some tea would be lovely, actually.” Another voice spoke to answer her offer. It came from nowhere, but it seemed to echo everywhere at once. Yukari Yakumo then stared at the sudden appearance of the short and balding man as he kept speaking. "You were all brought here to become allies, not enemies." And then he glanced at her and the foolish man with a hidden meaning that Yukari knew all at once. Yukari then noticed that the Spellcard she held had no magic power. Well, it did, but it felt as if it was already in the state of 'Spell Break', in which a Spell Card has either run out of power or was nulled by the danmaku of an opponent during a danmaku battle. Strange, indeed. Yukari thought to herself. This man was not to be trifled with, though Yukari masked that thought as she brought her fan to cover the bottom of her face, making a mischievous look that she was known to do.

The man then began to make a speech of the reason why the six of them were transported to this 'End of Time'. The fact that everyone was hand-picked because of the horrible fates that shouldn't happen were going to because of these 'kinks' actually did worry Yukari. It inferred that Gensokyo itself was in danger, directly or indirectly, because of these 'kinks'. At the very best, the man might have only chosen her because of her ability to gap herself into different dimensions, which would benefit this group greatly in this mission. At the very worst, Gensokyo would be destroyed because of various reasons, one being that she would not be there to even create the Great Hakurei Border. "I suppose we are able to ask our questions, then." Yukari said after the man was done. "Out of curiosity, what exactly did cause this?" She tilts her head as she removed the fan from her face, now being serious rather than being her playful self that she was a few minutes ago.

         PROLOGUE - - -

IC: as...an unknown power

You are going about your everyday lives, doing your everyday activities, in your own reality. Quite unexpectedly, a dark pinkish portal quickly opens up above you. Within a split-second, you find yourself in different surroundings.

These new “surroundings” are...bland. You find yourself standing on a sandy set of dunes that expands for what seems to be an eternity. And above you, nothing but a clear blue sky. Light seems to be coming from some sort of solar body reminiscent of an Earth's sun. And within this vast, sandy landscape other travelers appear the same time as you.

For some reason, you know that there is someone waiting to arrive. Someone who knows what has happened. Someone who can hopefully explain your sudden “teleportation”.

........The Timebroker will be with you shortly........

(OOC: You may want to use this time to get acquainted with your new surroundings, as well as the people around you. All your questions will be answered when the Timebroker arrives... I'll say that everyone gets one intro post apiece, at least detailing what you were doing before you got transported and how you're reacting to the others around you.)
