Alice Quest - The Seven-Colored Puppeteer's Week v2

[Hello Purvis]

>"Oh no, I mean let's see how this goes. Have fun!"

[Neovereign]

>"Oh no, I mean let's see how this goes. Have fun!"

> Yuugi takes to the air, finally facing competition.
> Though, Yuugi's time for the mushroom may be up soon. You expect it to run out mid battle, even if they start right now, which they seem keen on.
>_

[Hello Purvis]

>That'll be data, too.
>Observe!

[Neovereign]

>That'll be data, too.
>Observe!

> You watch...
> The first opponent begins with two streams of danmaku, quickly passing by Yuugi's sides and leaving gap-filled trails as she takes note of it.
> The other two begin to fire smaller shots towards Yuugi, however, one quickly changes to non-direct shots as they notice the same attack.
> Yuugi fires back with a collection of huge bullets outwards from her as she heads for one of the gap-filled sides.
>_

[Hello Purvis]

>Make sure they have space, and watch the show!

[Neovereign]

>Make sure they have space, and watch the show!

> Although the gaps are quite huge, Yuugi's figure still catches some of the danmaku. However, it doesn't leave any visible scratch on her clothing, and she continues through unaffected.
> The scattering opponent fires shots more frequently, and with greater speed, floating back to get more distance from Yuugi's slowly oncoming assault.
> "Calm down or you'll hit me and him." The second shifts their aim from Yuugi to their ally for a moment.
> Yuugi's dodging slows as the aimed danmaku reaches her, nudging to the side to keep avoiding it as the field fills.
>_

[Hello Purvis]

>Mutter: "Doesn't seem to have hampered her maneuverability, at least..."
>Keep watching. Make sure Shanghai is keeping up her notes.

[Neovereign]

>Mutter: "Doesn't seem to have hampered her maneuverability, at least..."
>Keep watching. Make sure Shanghai is keeping up her notes.

> You glance over at your dolls.
> Shanghai isn't taking any notes. She's just watching the battle...
>_

[Hello Purvis]

>"Do keep taking notes, please, Shanghai."

[Neovereign]

>"Do keep taking notes, please, Shanghai."

> "O-Oh." Shanghai nods, going through her outfit.
> Yuugi... seems to have fired more danmaku from behind her, it seems.
> Ah, it's the previous ones changing when they reach a certain distance... Though, the ones closest to her opponents hasn't changed yet.
>_

[Hello Purvis]

>Observe. No need to take sides in this.
>Do the other passersby seem to have a favorite?

[Neovereign]

>Observe. No need to take sides in this.
>Do the other passersby seem to have a favorite?

> No. Most are waiting for things to heat up more...
> The opposing side from Yuugi begins to take hits. The first opponent manages to dodge, but the other two do not. They stagger slightly.
> A few more onlookers seem to fly up to the battle, carefully taking an area amidst Yuugi's danmaku.
> Things seem to calm some as the two sides take their time weaving through the field.
> It's definitely about time Yuugi changed back, but it hasn't happened yet.
>_

[Hello Purvis]

>Quietly: "Note down how long it takes her to change back from this point, Shanghai."
>Observe until something pertinent to the experiment happens, the battle ends, or something otherwise noteworthy happens.

[Neovereign]

>Quietly: "Note down how long it takes her to change back from this point, Shanghai."
>Observe until something pertinent to the experiment happens, the battle ends, or something otherwise noteworthy happens.

> Shanghai nods.
> You continue watching as things steadily heat up. More and more residents are starting to join, and the scene is spanning out over a larger area.
> Yuugi declares that one 3-step knockout spellcard...
> There's an intense rumbling, and you feel a bit off balance.
>_

[Hello Purvis]

>Let's make sure we are well out of the way.

[Neovereign]

>Let's make sure we are well out of the way.

> You retreat further away.
> A large amount of danmaku bursts from Yuugi, settling around her and keeping others away. Though, it's far too tightly packed and doesn't cover a large area...
> There's another, stronger rumbling...
>_

[Hello Purvis]

>Try to identify the source of the rumbling.

[Neovereign]

>Try to identify the source of the rumbling.

> It doesn't seem to be coming from the ground below... You consider Yuugi, but she's in the air...
> Some of the structures are starting to shake.
>_

[Hello Purvis]

>Give the structures some clearance, too.

[Neovereign]

>Give the structures some clearance, too.

> You try your best, given your size...
>_

[Hello Purvis]

>Nothing for it but to observe.

[Neovereign]

>Nothing for it but to observe.

> You return your attention.
> Another large ring of danmaku expands over the previous one, reaching much farther and knocking down some of the unlucky combatants to be caught. The rest back up considerably.
> There's yet another incredible rumbling as some of the lesser structures show signs of imminent collapse.
>_

[Hello Purvis]

>Back away a bit more, and watch. She knows what she's doing.

[Neovereign]

>Back away a bit more, and watch. She knows what she's doing.

> You stumble back as the field fills with danmaku, fiercely knocking down many of the combatants, before it and the first ring begin to spread outwards from Yuugi.
> "Is this really fine?" Shanghai questions.
>_

[Hello Purvis]

>"There isn't much we can do about it, I think..."

[Neovereign]

>"There isn't much we can do about it, I think..."

> "You could ask her to stop."
> The second wave spreads out as the rumbling begins again.
>_

[Hello Purvis]

>"I doubt she'd listen at this point!"

[Neovereign]

>"I doubt she'd listen at this point!"

> "I can't take notes like this." Shanghai says.
> Opponents are gathering themselves again and firing towards Yuugi.
>_

[Hello Purvis]

>"Just get behind me, both of you."

[Neovereign]

>"Just get behind me, both of you."

> Your dolls do so.
> "Don't fall on us." Hourai warns.
