The sky was still as black as night. Time had not moved an inch. It was remaining in the timeframe of 12:01am to 1:30am. The Eientei group had a rather decent "protection" system put in place. It was obvious that it had been used more then once, to give such... Astounding results. Two Embodiments, Five Gensokyans and One Spawn of Chaos blaze through the night sky in red missiles supported by drill-shaped rocks. The projectiles broke the sound barrier, arriving outside the netherworld in a burst of crimson light. The keystones did their job well. As the bright light faded away, the Chaos Spawn that had been silent all the while, showed signs of irritation. It growled towards Orin, who in turn, jumped back and hid behind Gale. All the Embodiment did was give the Spawn a blank stare.
Wriggle soon reacted too, forcing her remaining energies to calm the spawn. It soon turned back into it's silent, still state.
"A-Are you sure we should k-keep this thing here?!" Orin squirmed at it's unfaltering gaze. At times when any of the group were to speak, the Spawn seemed to be listening - It's streamlined eyes glew at certain points.
"I trust... Aesera, Orin. Although it seems like a bad plan to be bringing this thing to Yukari."
Wriggle crossed her arms and pushed her chest out, smiling. "I can keep it under control! I mean, I got it this way and did what none of you c-" The beast growled at Wriggle's sudden loss of focus. The Bug Youkai frantically resumed to calm it down.
"As long as Wriggle keeps it... Sedated, It's alright."
"I have a bad feeling about this, Aesera."
"Yeah!" Tenshi added. "Wriggle's powers aren't even as strong as... Uhh... Orin's!"
"Are you trying to say that I'm weak?" Orin clenched her fist and raised it at Tenshi, who returned with a smirk.
"Hey, no fighting." Gale muttered. Just a sentence from him made Orin glare at her partner, but it did get the job done. Tenshi and Orin faced away from each other.
"Then we just have to trust in Wriggle. Let's go."
Walking further, the group stood directly in front of the entrance. "That's the entrance to the Netherworld, then," Aesera said. "It looks sealed."
"It is," Tenshi said, "but whoever made it, um, overlooked something. All you need to do is fly over it."
"I'd think that would be a hard thing to overlook. Huh. Well, anyways, from here, we fly. Orin, you carry Gale again. We head east from here."
"What exactly are you looking for?" Tenshi asked.
"Mist. When we see the mist, we change course and head south. But there's more to it; that mist may very well contain a way to access the outside world. I don't plan to try it yet, if only because I can't know that returning in the same manner is possible, but I do want to get a good look at it. Now come on, let's get moving."
-
The group flew towards the east, silently and steadily. The only sound was either from Orin and Tenshi arguing or the Chaos Spawn managing to get a growl out from it's throat. Soon, mist entered their sights.
"That was fast, don't you think?" Kanako said.
"Seems too quick. I didn't think it'll be that easy. If Yukari is already having trouble with the border, don't you think Chaos would be... cautious enough to place guardians or something towards Mayohiga?" Gale thought out loud.
"Yes, but they could always be hiding. Waiting. Like at the outside world. We were not prepared to face a full onslaught at the shrine or university. We just somehow, managed to win." Aesera replied.
"You didn't tell me you did all that..." Tenshi muttered.
"Anyway, let's go." Kanako drew her sword, leading the way south.
The journey was fast and uneventful. The group flew past the area covered with mist, and this time, the Chaos Spawn was absolutely silent, even with the gittering going on between the Celestial and the Hellcat. Sometimes even including Wriggle. As the group ventures onward, Kanako soon comes to a grinding halt.
"...I don't understand..." Kanako points in the direction they are going. "...Vina... Is connected to Mayohiga...?"
There is more then one route to Makai.
Surely you should know that behind the Hakurei Shrine, A path leads straight - Towards Pandaemonium.
But there are two more. Towards the Sanzu River, along the Road of Liminality. At times on an incident, another path will spring forth.
A path covered in Cherry Blossom Pedals that lead towards another world - One of true demons. Mugetsu's Realm.
And Finally, towards a journey to Mayohiga, if you go right, you will reach Vina. If you go left, you will reach Mayohiga and the weakest part of the border. My home.
"...Yes... I remember... Yukari once said... The paths to Makai..." Kanako mutters more and more to herself, and as Aesera flies up, Kanako resumes going left. Aesera begins to question Kanako's way of direction, asking questions. Kanako, lost in her own thoughts, balantly disregards all questions that her partner gives her, and continues onward. Reluctantly, Aesera quietens down and follows her. The group behind also notices a change in Kanako, and they are silent too. The Chaos Spawn's eyes glow brighter as they approach Mayohiga.
...And there it is. A large expense of land dominated by traditional japanese houses. With now no living inhabitants or even youkai, it is a ghost town. At the far edge of it is a large, purple runic circle. Complex diagrams are drawn all over it. Markings are all over the place, and intense energy leaks from the circle. In the center of it, a streak of yellow.
Nobody had ever noticed, not even Orin, how quiet and far back Utsuho was. Now, at Mayohiga, all the HellCrow did was stare at the small yellow streak in the distance. She was fearful.
