L. Scarlet's Story

The reddish-brown haired boy appeared behind the German as the dragon girl had finished redrawing the cross for Goose and had begun walking away.
"Nice neat entrances, that's always nice," mumbled Goose from his chair as the boy began asking questions. "Okay, okay, hold your horses, and your umbrella. Give me a chance."
"Firstly Doc," he addressed the German "Ich bin Goose. Dies ist Die Insel. Versuchen Sie, nicht zu früh sterben. Tragen Sie keine blauen Federn."
"And Skippy," he turned back to the umbrella carrying boy. "I'm Goose. This is The Island. Try not to die too soon. Don't chase the rabbits."
"Now... get off my arrival point."

"I doubt she wants to play you games, Skippy," Goose smirked. Then he frowned.
The new arrival with her gun drawn stood several feet from where the the arrival before her had appeared. Goose jumped from his armchair and hurriedly waddled over to the red-brown haired boy.
"Okay Skip, go play your games under a palm tree or something and move your burnable rear end," he gave the umbrella-bearer a good shove in the knees to get him moving. The only thing that kept the small goblin-creature from becoming part of such 'games' was that the shove forced the the boy to stumble to keep in the shade of his umbrella.
The goblin's frowned deepened as he started grumbling and making very deliberate movements to redraw the cross.
"Always draw the cross... otherwise... bad things... has be drawn... There." He stood back to admire his work.
"So... Trigger," he turned to gun toting new arrival. "I'm Goose. This is The Island. Try not to die too soon. Don't swim on a full stomach."

The dragon came back with its rider who began talking to the bleeding gun-carrier. They were talking and the other boy was talking and it was beginning to set Goose on edge.
"There's lot's of people," said Goose with a tone akin to panic but with a deeper edge of something to it. "All on my beach. Lot's of people and- YOU'RE WRECKING MY BEACH!!"
The red-brown hair boy was smiling at him, not in a nice way.
"I can play games too, Skippy," snarled Goose returning the wicked grin. He rolled his shoulders with a slight frown like he was removing a kink from his neck. His voice was deeper when he spoke again. "And I know just how flammable you are."
"Okay you lot, listen up! Skippy there are things in that jungle who love to play games with you. Trigger and Princess deal with your medical emergency elsewhere, thanks. Take Ugly with you. Doc, Missie and Twinkles... i don't know just... elsewhere... maybe the Party. This is the deal, you're all here for an indefinite amount of time. Follow my advice but leave me alone."
He stomped off back to his armchair, he was oddly taller now and when he sat down he was able to mush his feet aggressively into the sand in front of him.
"And keep clear of my arrival point."

OOC: Don't take Goose personally. It's just his character. I love that there's so many people.

Remilia and Yukari were both tired, both kneeling, catching their breath, but Yukari was faster, giving Remilia a brutal uppercut and sending her flying. Remilia would've stood, but the sunlight stopped her from dong anything. Yukari turned to Mirrin, enveloping herself in a gap and reappearing behind Mirrin, holding her while Rumia prepared to strike. Remilia yelled to Lance, knowing what he was about to do could turn him evil as well. "LANCE, TAKE OFF YOUR NECKLACE!".

_______________________________________________________________

Lance stood, facing the Vampire before him. Still in his childlike form, L was growing deadlier by the second, but Lance would match this power easily. Lance moved his hand to his necklace, only now realising the direness of the situation. If Lady Remilia was willing to let him take off his necklace, things must be going horribly. Very, very horribly. He clasped his hands around the necklace, and tugged.....

1....

2....

3....

That was when he exploded in a ball of light, sending everyone flying in different directions, and causing Him, L, Remilia and Mirrin to end up in the middle of the party. Well, Remilia and Mirrin did, at least, but he and L were transported to the top of a Volcano. Epic battle about to take place? I think so!

_____________________________________________________

the explosion shook the Island slightly, and that would've alerted Quill to what was happening, and where. And the others would've known too, because everyone would be fighting everyone else. Good versus Evil, Light versus Dark.

The Great Battle.... had just begun.

(OOC: Since I've been making so many characters, I'm just adding them into Meiling's Profile, a picture of all of the Scarlet Mansion Girls will be in there. Actually should I make another character for them all? Call it, Gensokyo Residents or something?

Picture of the Mansion Girls: http://www.google.com.au/imgres?um=1&hl ... aCg&zoom=1

Made smaller for size purposes, reposting in the Gensokyo Residents Character Page soon ))

Lance stood, rubbing his forehead with the hand that didn't have a Void Cannon strapped to it. He looked down at the Void Cannon, noticing it had already begun drawing energy from the surrounding area to charge up again. Lance would've left, but he knew that L was still alive. L had taken a lot of hits like that, but Lance doubted that he could take a full power blast from the Void Cannon. As if on queue, L landed a few meters away, his features twisted hatefully and his eyes having turned fully red. This meant one thing, L was going to use his full power this time. Then they both took to the air, L using his smaller, artificial-looking wings, and Lance using his Hell Raven wings.

___________________________________________________________________

Remilia didn't even bother answering Mirrin, she simply pointed to the top of the Youkai infested mountain, which was, for some odd reason, missing a good half of it. "Meiling should be here with the others soon, so they'll take out a bit of them". Remilia then turned in the air, brandishing her red energy spears and lobbing them through the crowds of Youkai, incapacitating and slaying numerous amounts of her opponents.

___________________________________________________________________

Patchouli Knowledge was still in her Library when the Gateguard burst in through the door, with a fair amount of people behind her. Meiling was out of breath, and had to spend a few minutes to catch her breath, whilst the others went and did their own thing, Yukari went over to Patchouli and started discussing tactics to take advantage of their current disadvantage, and suddenly the Scarlet's Mansion was a hive of activity, buzzing with people and conversation. A far cry from the Mansion that it was a few seconds ago.

__________________________________________________________________

L and Lance were doing the exact same thing as before, but the sun was changing, reddening, and it almost seemed like some of its energy was flowing towards Lance, being absorbed into him and allowing his Void Cannon to charge faster. The two opponents hovered just next to the side of the Mountain, creating a whirlwind of debris and fire. A storm was brewing around the two, and soon enough it would block them off from the rest of the world. Mirrin would have to hurry up if she wanted to make it in time.

__________________________________________________________________

Remilia looked at Mirrin, seeming to realise something. "Fine whatever, you need to get up to the top of the mountain asap! Go!". Remilia didn't wait for Mirrin's reply and grabbed her by the hand, flinging her up the Mountain with inhuman strength that nobody would know came from Remilia, considering how skinny and small she was. Remilia then turned, and flew straight into the army of Youkai headed her way, slashing and hacking and biting.

___________________________________________________________________

A quarter of the way up the mountain, a hand caught Mirrin's. Meiling was holding onto Yukari's hand, utilising a portal to help Mirrin upways. "She's on our side now Mirrin, you focus on helping Lance, we'll take on the army, alright?". Meiling's eyes were blazing with determination, and she gave little warning before she flung Mirrin even further up the Mountain, being pulled into Yukari's 'Gap' just after to join the battle on the ground.

__________________________________________________________________

Further up the Mountain was another person, this being Youmu Konpaku, who was expertly balancing on her sword, which was stuck into the Mountainside. As Mirrin approached and began to fall back towards the ground, a sword appeared under her, giving her a stable foothold. "In three seconds, jump straight out. Don't ask why, I'm on your side now. L is a threat to everything so I must... throw aside my... grudges and help.... and take this as well". Youmu handed Mirrin a small vial, her grim features lightening for a second. "It's the cure you originally went after, I.... believe that I owe you it". Youmu nodded once, and pushed Mirrin off of the sword, allowing her to fall to the ground slightly...........

_________________________________________________________________

A hand grasped Mirrin's. The blond hair, the golden, sparkling eyes, and the cocky grin all revealed the person flying on her broomstick towards the top of the Mountain. "Marisa Kirisame, at ya service, Mirrin! You probably remember me from the Library, but we've got more important things to do right now! Hang on tight, girl!". Marisa grinned wildly, accelerating straight up and pulling Mirrin onto the broomstick, whilst she herself stood, apparently unaffected by gravity. Ahead of them were a large amount of Youkai, all yelling with blood lust and happiness, some realising who she was and fleeing instantaneously. Those who didn't had little time to react as Marisa pulled out a small black octagonal box with a pure black pearl in the middle of it. Maris grinned and aimed it at her targets, the pearl turning golden and sending out small sparks of electricity.

"MASTER....... SPAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRK!"

A massive beam of light shot forward from the box, annihilating the Youkai in front of the Magician. She turned to Mirrin, grabbing her wrist again, a smirk on her face. "Give L a good smack to the face for me, and don't let Lance kill himself, alright? I still..... don't worry, just don't let him die, alright?". A few seconds passed, allowing Mirrin to reply, as with the others, before Marisa flung her passenger up to the top of the mountain, but apparently it wasn't enough, as Mirrin just missed the top ledge. She begun falling.........

_______________________________________________________________

Then it happened. A pale hand appeared and extended itself out to Mirrin. After pulling Mirrin up it was revealed who stood there. A pale Maid, his silver hair framing her ghostly white face, her piercing blue eyes and her grim smile. Her hair was parted slightly over her forehead, with two long ponytails like Meiling's next to them. She locked eyes with Mirrin, and gave her a short bow. "Miss Patchouli should be using her powers to help you right about..... now". As those words left her mouth a path of fallen debris floated upwards, creating a 'path' that would help Mirrin reach Lance and L. The Maid put a hand on Mirrin's shoulder and bowed her head. "I left the Mansion a long time ago.... I... regret that, I doubt that they'd ever take me back, but I'll be here waiting for your return, Lady Mirrin. Oh, and tell Lance that Sakuya said hello...". With that, the Maid took Mirrins hand into her own, dropping a small charm into it. "This will help you, definitely". Then, the Maid gave Mirrin a shove towards the path, and watched her go. "I hope it isn't too late..... ".

_______________________________________________________________

Lance noticed the ground appear underneath him, and landed on it, making sure it was solid. Patchouli was doing a darn good job keeping it in place. He moved just in time to dodge a whip of energy fired from L, and retaliated by creating a ball of Nuclear power and threw it at his opponent, who had to fly up into the air just to barely escape. The storm around them raged, more powerful than ever, the flames and wind would probably annihilate anything or anyone that fell into it instantly. With this in mind, Lance returned to his battle with L, and made sure to keep away from the edges of the arena.

______________________________________________________________

At the bottom of the Mountain, a stranger approached the Castle, observing the happenings but not interfering. Her red hair and eyes sparkled almost as brightly as her scythe's blade did. She simply observed, and sighed lightly. "I'm going to have a LOT of souls to reap.... ugh...".

L flipped backwards, a smirk on his face. "Heeeheee~ You fell right into my trap, Human!~". L pointed at Mirrin, gathering power in his fingertips, sending out a beam of light aimed right at her. Suddenly something blocked out all of the light around Mirrin. It was Lance, his face just a few centimeters away from hers. "I might not live to regret this, but i can't stop myself any longer, Mirrin". With that, he pressed his lips against hers just long enough for her to react. Then he turned, facing L, smirk on his face.

"SPELL CARD! NUCLEAR FUSION - SUBTERRANEAN SUN!"

Lance threw Mirrin backwards, away from him as a ball of Nuclear power engulfed him in red light. It grew bigger and bigger, to the size of a house, completely covering him in it's glow, and sucking everything in towards it. A literal 'Sun' that had its own gravitational field, sucking in everything that was in its radius, meaning that the Youkai, L and Mirrin were in danger. Hopefully Mirrin had latched onto her sword, but all Lance cared about was killing L. He made out to be immortal, but in truth Lance could kill him easily in this form. L scrabbled for handholds and grips, but found none, falling slowly towards the Sun and clawing at the ground on his way there. He glared at extended his claws, digging into the ground and staying there. "Hahahaaaa!~ What now, Mister Lance? What NOW?~".

Lance fell to the ground, sucked in by the gravity created by his artificial sun. He wrapped his arm around Mirrin, pushing back into the kiss, but keeping a watchful eye on L. L's claws had been cut off by Mirrin, and the boy was being quickly sucked into the sun, his clothes and skin alike being destroyed. And when he was just about to die, Lance destroyed the Sun, allowing him to stand up. He stood, still holding Mirrin close to him but breaking the kiss. He pulled her sword out of his shoulder, and let her go. "there's one thing I've wanted to do, and now.... I can do it".

Lance kneeled, watching the octagonal panels on his Void Cannon open up and flip, exposing L to the runes embedded on them. A small ball of pure Nuclear energy appeared in front of the barrel, growing bigger and more powerful every second. L looked up, pleading with his eyes. He only managed to mutter "Mister La-" before the fully powered Void Cannon obliterated him, and the arena and Youkai army behind him. The charge went on for a long time, Lance kneeled there, eveen after it had finished. He stood and turned to Mirrin, smiling and giving her a salute whilst his Void Cannon folded up. He walked over to her and gave her a peck on the cheek.

"I'm glad that I finally got too kiss you, I've wanted to do that for a long time....". Lance rubbed his forehead, his brows creasing. Then, he blacked out, falling to the ground, sound asleep.

The solitary figure stood over the two unconscious people. The Hell Raven and the... Human? The figure's crimson eyes scanned them, knowing that the Hell Raven was close to death. The figure could take him if she wanted, but she did owe him life. He'd saved hers, so now she had repayed her debt. A note appeared in front of her, text slowly appearing on it.

Dearest Lancelot,

You saved my life once, so now I've taken the liberty of letting you continue yours. Also, an old friend of yours is back, but I doubt that you'll see her. She was good at hiding before, now she's gotten even better, keep an eye out though. She says hello.

Yours faithfully,
Komachi Onozuka, Shinigami

The figure kneeled, placing the note in Lance's hand, and then turned to Mirrin, a small smile playing on her face.

Dear Mirrin,

You may not be from our world, Gensokyo, but you've proven today that you just might be a perfect match for our enigmatic Butler. Listen closely, he really cares for you, don't screw him around, otherwise he might just kill you, and then I'll have to take you to Shikeiki and... ugh, don't even get me started about her. Anyways, I've gotta go, I might get caught slacking off again, and I don't want that to happen. We'll always be watching you, Mirrin, but in a good way.

Yours faithfully,
Komachi Onozuka, Shinigami

P.S: He likes Chocolate, especially the ones from Rinnouske's Shop, if you want to buy him something, buy them

The figure placed that note in Mirrin's hand and disappeared into thin air, trying to avoid her duties at all costs.

____________________________________________________________________

Remilia Scarlet sighed. L was finally dead, or at least his evil was dead. For now. He'd just come back soon, and forget whatever happened. She landed, blood covering her from where the Youkai had been feasted on. She got hungry, so what? No doubt the Shrine Maiden and Guardian would celebrate, and it'd be a fairly large party too. The not-so-dead Youkai would come and apologise, and those that weren't involved would come too. Remilia floated around, eventually finding Quill. "Just letting you know that L has been.... obliterated, for lack of better word. We'll be seeing him later though, right now I have other concerns". Remilia disappeared, off to find her Brother, probably.

___________________________________________________________________

Yukari Yakumo smiled, Lance was cute when he was passed out, or when he wasn't aware of her spying on him, or when he wa-. Focus Yukari, just put him in the bed and leave, that's it. Get some sleep while you're at it.

Yukari placed Lance on the double bed he'd brought in, and placed Mirrin next to him, then she walked over to another bed and collapsed onto it, preparing for her 20 hour sleep.

__________________________________________________________________

Lance turned in his sleep, allowing one of his hands to fall onto one of Mirrin's. Who knows what he was dreaming about? You never know with Lance.... that's why everyone is so interested in him.
