[COMPLETE] Rumia Quest V Cont: Everything comes together

[Raikaria]

>"Well, that makes things easier. Thanks for the help too, though I have no idea what we're gonna do about the big absorber."

> "I can destroy it if you think that's a good idea." Flandre says.

> "I'm not sure that's a good idea, it might cause some sort of explosion of massive amounts of magical energy as backlash." Remilia says.

> "Then we should leave it to them Kappa things!" Flandre says.

> "Anyway, we need to leave, the night is starting to wane, and we must get inside before daylight." Remilia says, with a look to the horizon.

> Yuki and Mai have vanished, you suspect back to Makai when you were not looking.

[Hanzo K.]

>Nod. "Yeah. This is sure to be quite a scoop....If it wasn't for the fact that I was involved."
>Sigh. "Well, looks like this is where we part ways then. Bye!"
>Let's get the icecube and get it back to the Kappa on the double! We'll need to warn them to keep it cool while studying it too, so it doesn't try to explode again.

> "Hands-on is the best approach." Remilia says with a small smirk.

> The vampires leave, with Sakuya following when you take the ice-cube.

> You head to the Kappa Village, not far from the Tengu Village, and see Nitori waiting.

> "Wait, why is she frozen?" Nitori asks as you arrive, before shaking her head; "Ah never mind, that explains why Sakuya needed those devices."

[Hanzo K.]

>"She got frozen in order to stop a self-destruct. If you and the others are going to be messing with it, you'll want to keep her pretty chilled. She called herself 'Rika Unit Delta', Remilia thinks there's probably more copies of her running around like this."
>Let's give her the rundown on where the big absorber is, finishing with "You should send the fastest Kappa around to take care of that if there really are more than one of the Rika Machines."

> Nitori laughs. "There are not fast Kappa, we move as quick as we do with that Jet-pack we developed with Rikako's help! Don't worry, I hear you loud and clear. It is kinda not even dawn yet, however..." Nitori says, before yawning. "Everyone else is still sleeping..."

[Hanzo K.]

>Sigh. "I guess I'll go keep an eye on it then."
>There should still be a few Tengu awake yeah? We should gather some of the faster ones of that group if so.
>Otherwise, we'll head back to the absorber ourself and guard it until the Kappa get there.

> "Don't worry. Someone has already gone out to investigate. Rikako followed Sakuya and is probably there right now." Nitori says, before adding, "Strange human, most of them don't think us us Kappa, especially one with strong magic like her."

[Side Note: I realized I never did a 'title' for Yuki and Mai. I'd give them the 'titles' "Treacherous Mage of the Ninth Circle" and 'Violent Witch of the Seventh Circle'. They retained their basis from Dante's Inferno that they had in Rumia Quest 2.]

[Hanzo K.]

>Shrug. "Well, I should probably arrange for a Tengu Patrol to get sent there too anyways, just to keep things safe."
>How does one usually arrange for such a thing?

[Raikaria]

>Shrug. "Well, I should probably arrange for a Tengu Patrol to get sent there too anyways, just to keep things safe."
>How does one usually arrange for such a thing?

> It depends. Momiji, or tengu of the same rank as Momiji and rotate shifts with her, are the ones you report to when ten or less tengu are needed, anything more needs to go through Lord Tenma.

[Hanzo K.]

>"Well, I'll see about getting together a Patrol to help secure the Absorber. See you again later."
>Let's see about finding either Momiji, or a Tengu of the same rank as her. So we can get a full 10-Tengu Squad sent out to the Large Absorber.

>Let's see about finding either Momiji, or a Tengu of the same rank as her. So we can get a full 10-Tengu Squad sent out to the Large Absorber.

> You head to the gate of the Tengu village, and see one of Momiji's friends and, one of the other patrol heads, Iroha Hoeru. This wolf tengu is a Red Wolf Tengu, unlike Momiji, who is a White Wolf. As such, she's a bit more reckless than Momiji, but, for this sort of situation, that's probably better, as it's more likely she'll want to form a group and investigate. In terms of appearance, she wears the same outfit as Momiji, but is a bit larger, with red hair. On her shield are five stars, unlike Momiji, who has a maple leaf.

> In terms of fighting, Iroha is physically stronger, but slower and less nimble than Momiji.

[Hanzo K.]

>Well, that'll do just fine. Let's head over.
>"Hey. Got any free patrollers needing something to do? The latest incident's just been wrapped up and I need a squad to guard an object that's been involved in it. A large Magic Absorbing device that Rika had her eyes on. I get the feeling we haven't seen the last of her. That frozen one I brought back for Nitori and the other Kappa to study seems to be one of many. Which means she won't be quiet for long. Since the self-destruct failed, we'll need to get a full 10-Tengu Squad on the job right away."

> "Hmm? The one time you leave the village to do some reporting and something like this comes up..." the red wolf says, scratching behind her ear. "Wondered why I felt a little less magic in the air about an hour ago."

> She remains quiet for a few moments, before nodding. "Well, since it's the night shift we can only spare eight. That'll have to do."

[Hanzo K.]

>Nod. "It's close enough to ten that it should hopefully be enough. I'd go for more, but then there's all the red tape to get through when speed's of the essence. Rikako should already be analyzing it by now according to Nitori."
>Let's wait for her to grab the 8 that can be spared for this job, then get them to the Absorber to do their job.

> The red wolf dashes off, and, within minutes, re-appears with another seven wolf tengu.

> "Right, just point us in the right direction and we'll be off." she says.

[Hanzo K.]

>"I figured I'd escort you guys there just to make sure of things. better safe than sorry when Gensokyo itself is on the line after all."
>Let's lead 'em to the Absorber!

[Raikaria]

>"I figured I'd escort you guys there just to make sure of things. better safe than sorry when Gensokyo itself is on the line after all."
>Let's lead 'em to the Absorber!

> "Fine, fine. Can't hurt seein' as we're going into the mountains." the wolf says.

> You lead the wolf pack to the absorber, and, as Nitori suggested, Rikako, in her usual white lab coat, is already there, inspecting the device.

[Hanzo K.]

>"Well, here it is. The Absorber. There should be a group of Kappa coming along later today to pick it up for safekeeping and research I think, so you guys shouldn't need to keep tabs on it for too long. I'll be heading back, later!"
>Let's head back to base and get to work on figuring out how to write the article.

[Raikaria]

>Let's head back to base and get to work on figuring out how to write the article.

> "Yeah yeah. We figured all the out already." the red wolf says.

> With that, you head back home, so you can rest up, and plan the article on this whole fiasco.

---

> You are in control of Rumia again. You're still at Eientei, thinking about what you're going to do next in regards to this whole mess.

[Hanzo K.]

>"I guess the next thing to do is to get the absorber in Makai to shut down then."

[Raikaria]

>"I guess the next thing to do is to get the absorber in Makai to shut down then."

> "Well you'll have to find a way there yourself, I can't open Makai portals." Eirin says.

[Hanzo K.]

>"Yeah, and with me being how I am, I can't be in Makai for too long, and I've already been in there for a little while today."
>Sigh. "Maybe I can get Mima to take care of that while I go deliver a message."
>Nod. "I'll see about that soon, later."
>Let's go find Suika!

[Raikaria]

>"Yeah, and with me being how I am, I can't be in Makai for too long, and I've already been in there for a little while today."
>Sigh. "Maybe I can get Mima to take care of that while I go deliver a message."
>Nod. "I'll see about that soon, later."
>Let's go find Suika!

> "See you." Eirin says as you fly off.

> You head for the Hakurei shrine, where Sukia usually is. True enough, she's hanging out around in front of it. Mima is there too, seemingly being reluctantly grilled by Reimu about the incident, to the degree you'd think Mima was behind it.

[Hanzo K.]

>Let's head over to Suika! "Yo! Need 'ta borrow you for a bit. I'm draggin' you down below with me to see Yuugi."
>Grin. "I think you both will want to hear the info I've got."

[Raikaria]

>Let's head over to Suika! "Yo! Need 'ta borrow you for a bit. I'm draggin' you down below with me to see Yuugi."
>Grin. "I think you both will want to hear the info I've got."

> "Uh? I'd like to see you drag an Oni!" Sukia says, chuckling afterwards.

[Hanzo K.]

>Laugh along with her. "Just come on Suika, it's good 'noose'!"
>Then facepalm. "I can't believe I made a pun. At least I didn't go for a visual gag too."

[Raikaria]

>Laugh along with her. "Just come on Suika, it's good 'noose'!"
>Then facepalm. "I can't believe I made a pun. At least I didn't go for a visual gag too."

> Sukia thinks for a few moments, looking like she's concentrating incredibly hard.

> "Raymoo's in a bad mood for some reason, I guess I better go before she makes me sober up." Sukia says.

[Hanzo K.]

>Grin a bit. "Probably because she missed out on solving a big Incident. You know how she is about those. Let's go!"
>Let's make for the Underground to find Yuugi!

[Raikaria]

>Grin a bit. "Probably because she missed out on solving a big Incident. You know how she is about those. Let's go!"
>Let's make for the Underground to find Yuugi!

> "She'd be happy about that, means she didn't have to do anything. She's lazy..." Sukia says.

> You and Sukia head for the Underground. Nothing of any interest happens on the way down, except Kisume saying hi quietly from within her bucket.

[Hanzo K.]

>Wave cheerfully and with a smile. "Yo. I'd stop to chat, but I gotta find Yuugi, got big news! Hope your day's been good! Seeya!"
>Let's keep rollin'!
