Still Chen's Day Out! =^_^=

[Chaore]

> "Hmm...  Should we try the Underground, Hakurei Shrine, or the Moriya Shrine?  Those three are the only places we haven't really checked yet..."

>Only one? But... Yukari must be cursed... she went too insane too quickly for it to have just been nothing. Although it isn't out of the realm of possibility she really did just go insane out of nowhere. She might even be the one who got Keine cursed.
>Well, if we're tracking down the one we know... it went into the earth, right? Maybe we should check the underground.

You still want to believe Yukari is cursed, but chasing after the one you did find is probably a good ideas. You figure, since it went into the ground, it is probably somewhere in the Underground now.

[OkashiiKisei]

> Ask Suika how the Tengu village is going and if there were any other peculiar events lately.
> After this, say good bye to Suika, and fly with Roc to the Underground.

[Kasu]

> "Hina, we're gonna try the Underground."
> "Are you gonna stay here Suika?"

[Chaore]

> Ask Suika how the Tengu village is going and if there were any other peculiar events lately.
> After this, say good bye to Suika, and fly with Roc to the Underground.

> "Hina, we're gonna try the Underground."
> "Are you gonna stay here Suika?"

"'Course I am, they won't let me out without something like the shrine getting blow up. As far as since we left, nothing doing. Ya'd think it be livelier here..."

You bid Suika farewell and head to the Underground with Hina. There appears to be no spiders here to greet you this time...

[OkashiiKisei]

> Uh oh. This seems suspicious. Traverse through a few of the caves and tunnels, and call out Kisume's and Yamame's names to try and find residents.
> If you can find no one, raise your guard. Summon Mackette to be on the safe side.

[Chaore]

> Uh oh. This seems suspicious. Traverse through a few of the caves and tunnels, and call out Kisume's and Yamame's names to try and find residents.
> If you can find no one, raise your guard. Summon Mackette to be on the safe side.

You get into the tunnel system and switch to Mackette, heading through in search of anyone. After a while, you think you spot a horde of spiders. They appear to be rushing towards you. You can also see Yamame within them all.

[OkashiiKisei]

> If they are rushing at you with curiosity and overal friendliness, say hi and tell about the curse parasite problem.
> If they are rushing at you in the angry mob fashion, run.

[Chaore]

> If they are rushing at you with curiosity and overal friendliness, say hi and tell about the curse parasite problem.
> If they are rushing at you in the angry mob fashion, run.

They appear to be rushing you with a 'oh god mommy why' fashion. They run past you as such.

You don't know why, but then a Kisume wielding FLAMING BUCKETS comes charging down the tunnel.

[Kuma]

> Run away from the pain, yeah.

[Hello Purvis]

>Give Mackette the Knife the order to lurk underground, get behind Kisume, then pin her from behind.

[Chaore]

> Run away from the pain, yeah.

You join the spiders and Yamame in fleeing from the flaming buckets. And she was such a nice girl too!

>Give Mackette the Knife the order to lurk underground, get behind Kisume, then pin her from behind.

You give Mackette orders to ambush Kisume. She disappears into the ground, and moments later, you hear the crash of her lunging from above Kisume, knocking her out of her bucket ride.

[Hello Purvis]

>Turn to assess the situation.
>If Kisume seems rightly pinned, have Miss Kagiyama do that thing.

[Spidere]

> "What the hell is going on!?"

[Chaore]

>Turn to assess the situation.
>If Kisume seems rightly pinned, have Miss Kagiyama do that thing.

Kisume doesn't seem too pinned, you suspect it may be difficult for Mackette, given she has no arms.

> "What the hell is going on!?"

"Kisume suddenly went rabid and started spitting fire everywhere, we tried to hold her down but she just got too strong somehow..."

[Hello Purvis]

>Swap out Mackette for Yumegami. Let the forces of inertia take their course.

[Chaore]

>Swap out Mackette for Yumegami. Let the forces of inertia take their course.

You swap Mackette for Yumigami. He casually strolls up through the flames and sits on Kisume. You're pretty sure this is pinned enough.

He assures you that he isn't going to crush Kisume, before you ask.

[Chen]

>Get Hina to test Kisume for the curse while holding the bottle.

[Chaore]

>Get Hina to test Kisume for the curse while holding the bottle.

You think its obvious, but you get Hina to test Kisume for the curse. She checks out positive pretty quickly. You ready the bottle for packing as Hina begins extracting.

[Kuma]

> LET THE OPPERATION BEGIN

[Chaore]

> LET THE OPPERATION BEGIN

Hina extracts the curse from Kisume, and promptly ends up hurling it out again. You catch it in the MAGICALLY PREPARED BOTTLE though. You cork that sucker.

Kisume is now sleeping. Guess she wore herself out with all that fire.

[Hello Purvis]

>"Are you okay, Hina?"
>Call out, "Anybody here?"

>_

[OkashiiKisei]

> Before anybody returns, raise the bottle in the air while strinking a pose. You got a Curse Parasite!
> "Alright people, it's all clear now, Kisume's harmless again. Come on out."

[Chaore]

>"Are you okay, Hina?"
>Call out, "Anybody here?"

>_

Hina nods, wiping her mouth. "Oof, Yes. I imagine this must be what it feels like when a human gets sick..."

You call out, Yamame and the spiders wave from a few feet away.

You feel a bit silly.

> Before anybody returns, raise the bottle in the air while strinking a pose. You got a Curse Parasite!
> "Alright people, it's all clear now, Kisume's harmless again. Come on out."

You pose for some reason, than inform them Kisume is pacified. Yamame heads over and picks up Kisume, who is hugging a bucket like a stuffed toy, and has a few spiders pick up the other buckets, while the rest put out the fires. "Thank you, Chen. If you hadn't shown up now, that might have gotten pretty serious."

[Kuma]

> "Hey, no problem, it's like, my thing nowadays."

[Spidere]

> "This parasite has been possessing people lately, and we've been testing people who could show up positive. It gives the wielder power, but drives them mad. Kisume will recover really soon, though. No need to worry."

[Hello Purvis]

>Pet the bunny. Pet him!
>Look at the Parasite in the bottle.
>Resist urge to shake it.

[Chen]

> Death stare at parasite.

[Chaore]

> "Hey, no problem, it's like, my thing nowadays."

Yamame nods. "Still, Thank you."

> "This parasite has been possessing people lately, and we've been testing people who could show up positive. It gives the wielder power, but drives them mad. Kisume will recover really soon, though. No need to worry."

"Oh, good. It shouldn't have any lasting effects, then?"

>Pet the bunny. Pet him!
>Look at the Parasite in the bottle.
>Resist urge to shake it.

You pet Yumigami. He really is kinda fluffy. You then stare at the parasite.

> Death stare at parasite.

DEATH STARE at it, even.

You'd shake it, but that may end poorly.

[Kasu]

> "Ah, I know we just got here, but me and Hina have to take care of something."
> Head back to the Scarlet Devil Mansion with Hina.

[Chaore]

> "Ah, I know we just got here, but me and Hina have to take care of something."
> Head back to the Scarlet Devil Mansion with Hina.

"Alright."

You and Hina head off to the Scarlet Devil Mansion, now with a curse in a bottle.
