Chapter 5: One Person's Past is Another Soul's Future


A girl is inside a house wearing a comfy sweater draped over one shoulder. She is brooding about a loved one while wandering morosely around her apartment. She is also seen sitting in the bathtub. She has a variety of dreams where she wakes up on an abandoned desert, surrounded by trash and debris, and wearing dark makeup. The girl becomes different after one dream that strucks out: She had a dream that she met with a couple who's baby has a contagious illness and the couple give Tamamo Mae protective gear so she doesn't get sick or if she does, the result will be epidemic. She then speaks to no one in particular: "I'm thinking about him, I feel left empty because he left me once.  I am hallucinating because I have received some love from him in a while. It feels like a moonsoon and I am left to dry. It feels like a year since I had seen him even though it has probably in reality only been a week or so. I'm pretty dramatic. I wish you would hurry up, because I'm drying up. However; The eye of the storm is the section that’s most calm while the circling winds around it are destructive and dangerous. Our relationship can be rough, having each other is what really matters, even if we are trying to hide something. I'm better when I'm with him, he brings out the best in not only me but everyone around us. We can finally be together because we want the same thing. You're the only one, and I am entirely commuted to you and only you. We are the same force I mean that they will act together and we are stronger that way. We run the same course, we’re on the same page, that we’re going down the same path." Kintaro and Sayohime begin to have Cassandra's memories implanted in their heads and can see her past.  In the meantime; Kincho, Tsuna, and Hangaku were implanted with the memories of Eulalie: Every time they were busy; they had a memory, or more than one, playing in their head and it somehow drove them all nuts. Tsubaki is implanted with Tamamo Mae's memories by accident and she begins to see the memories inside of her own head. 

How did this happen? Turn back the pendulum and start over, shall we? 


Earlier before.....

In the morning; Tsubaki was sitting in her room,  eyes are red and tired. She  couldn't get it out of her head: Once the demon was gone; Alyssa is shocked, she couldn't believe what happened and almost fainted but Kintaro caught her. "I got you, Alyssa. You're OK." Kintaro said softly. Alyssa moaned as she looked at him, "Yeah. Thank you." She said timidly. Kintaro's gang and Alyssa's friends came over to see if Alyssa was OK. But Night Parade growled in despair, "This isn't over yet, GREAT WATCH!!!! Kintaro, Sayohime, Oinari, Konohana, Hangaku, Tsuna, and you too Kincho! You're all gonna pay!" The demon shouted, it disappeared. Alyssa was shocked by this, she couldn't move or breathe. Now her thoughts are spinning as she thought herself: "What is Great Watch? Who are these people?" Just then, someone knocked on her door. "Come in." Tsubaki said. The door opened and her mother entered, Tsubaki sat up. "Hi honey! Are you OK?" Her mother said. Tsubaki managed to smile, "Yes, I am." She replied. Her mother smiled, "Great! Guess what? We are having guests coming for dinner on Friday Night." She said. Tsubaki grinned happily, "Really? Who are they?" She asked. "It's an old friend of mine, she's amazing and she's bringing some other people."  Her mother said. Tsubaki seemed excited, "Great!" She said happily. "Can I ask you something, sweetie?" Her mother asked, "Can you go to the store for some milk?" Tsubaki nodded, "Sure." She answered. "Thank you honey." Her mother said. At once; Tsubaki went to the store and bought the milk for her mother and was about to head back when there was an explosion behind her. And then, a mass of the building came for her. Tsubaki fell on her back and looked up, closing her eyes as she waited. But then, something stopped it. She opened her eyes and was stunt to see who it was: Oinari was lifting the mass of the building. 

That night on Friday; it was the dinner day and Tsubaki wore a dress with an allover brocade design, ruffled shoulder straps, lace-up detailing and tulle lining while her mother wore a velvet dress with a fit and flare style. Her mother was wearing an apron to protect her from getting any spills on her dress as she was cooking. "The food is almost done, Tsubaki. How's the table?" Her mother said. Tsubaki proudly grins, "All set, what do you think?" She said. Her mother was excited, "Very good, oh she's going to happy." She replied happily. "Did you shower?" Her mother asked. Tsubaki nodded, "Yup, is this OK Mom?" She inquired. "You look pretty, darling." Her mother said. "Thanks!" Tsubaki beamed. Then, the front door's bell rang. "I'll get it!" Tsubaki called. She heads to the door and opens it but her face fell with shock to see who it was. She saw only six people, teenagers, and she recognized Oinari. The first guy spoke up, "Hi, I'm Kintaro."  He said. But then, they all were awkward when Tsubaki was still staring. However; Tsubaki managed to regain her composure, "Um, hi. Welcome to our home." She said. Tsunade Kodoku step forward, "Tsuru!" She called out. Tsubaki's mother came to see her and embraced her best friend, "Tsunade, how are you?" Tsuru asked. "Fine, you look great!" Tsunade complimented. "Oh thanks, you do too." Tsuru replied back with praise. Tsunade took full notice of Tsubaki, "Ah, Tsubaki. You have grown!" She said. Tsunade hugged Tsubaki, who hugged back. "Hello Tsunade, is Usodori here?" Tsubaki asked. Tsunade smiled sadly, "No, she's...sick." She said. Tsubaki nodded, her mouth made an O shape, "Oh, I see." She said. Tsunade turned to Kintaro and the others, "Tsubaki, this is Kintaro and his friends: Sayohime, Tsuna, Hangaku, Kincho, Oinari, and Konohana." The six of them greeted her, Tsubaki was still having that demon's voice in her head and managed to smile back: "Hi, I'm Tsubaki." Tsubaki said. "Hello." Konohana greeted. "You have a beautiful home." Kincho complimented. "Thanks!" Tsubaki replied, "Excuse me, I gotta wash up." She hurried away to the bathroom upstairs. Tsuru giggled, "Aww, she's shy!" She said. "I see she hasn't changed much." Tsunade said with a smile. 

Later that night; Kintaro and his friends are walking home at night. Tsunade had to do something however she lets the gang to walk back to the base but then, they felt something wasn't right. They look around and all of a sudden; they were knocked out. Tamamo Mae look at their unconscious bodies, "Payback time." She said. Waking up in the Great Watch headquarters the next morning, Kintaro and Sayohime begin to discover to have Cassandra's memories implanted in their heads and can see her past: May 30th, Venusir Academy's end of the year prom raged of music and dancing. These people are there to celebrate the senior high school students' last day before they graduate. There were high school graduates: 20 year old Cassandra Endymion, who was having a blast with friends: Reuben, Judy, Danielle, Asher, Benjamin, Josephine, and Ephraim. This will be their last day with one another so they decide to make the most of the night with one another.Cassandra witnessed her mother, Annis, in a domestic violent marriage with Cassandra's father Boreas, who had also hurt her when Cassandra was a child. For Eulalie, she dreams of being a violinist and a ballerina however she was in an abusive relationship with her boyfriend name Gene, who had abused her physically, verbally and emotionally. So, Eulalie plans her escape by faking her death; leaving behind the life she had. Now she can live her life without the man that had abused her in the past. But this prom night was going to take a darker turn, a man in a tuxedo came up to the microphone and said, "All right! It's time to announce the winners of this year's Prom King and Queen." He had a small envelope in his hand and rips it up. "And the winners are....REUBEN MATTHEWS AND JUDY DAVIS!" Everyone broke into an applause, Reuben and Judy went to the stage to accept their crowns as Judy is given a bouquet of roses. Just then, unexpected visitors crashed the party with loaded guns and started a massacre. They shot at other people who fell to the floor. Panic filled everyone else, they try to flee but some were shot in the process. Cassandra watched in horror as her friends were being shot at. She noticed that Reuben was panting of the wound bleeding from there as he cries out, "Ohhh, the pain." Judy noticed Cassandra there and calls out, "Get away from here Cass!" "Save yourself Cass!" Asher called out, "Get away from here!" However they were all shot at as Cassandra screamed with terror. 

Cassandra was getting prepared for a job interview, she had a resume prepared with her. She took a shower motionless, she slowly clean her hair and body. Then, she got dressed and put on lip gloss. As she went to the interview; it doesn't go smoothly. The sounds of a loud boom set off Cassandra as she screamed while remembering the tragic incident. The employer then said after Cassandra calmed down, "I cannot hire someone who cannot get her act together. Go get some therapy and come back as a sane lady!" Cassandra was humiliated of this, she walked out with tears in her eyes and drove away. As she got back home; Cassandra takes a bubble bath. As her feet were at the foot of the tub, she rested her eyelids and slid underwater. This where she can daydream in this state. She had done it many times. This time, it was different. Today, she was swimming in the Caribbean sea and saw the animals hiding behind the rocks. She went under the sea as she sees fishes swim as they move their lips, 'Swim' and 'Talk to me.' With her feet in the air and her head on the ground; She begin to spin around however her head inside has collapsed and there's nothing. She begins to wonder, "Way in this water, I swim....Where my mind is? Where is it? Where is my mind? Where is my....Mind?" The word 'mind' begins to echo over and over again. Cassandra opened her eyes and emerged from the water of the bath, gasping for breath. Then, Cassandra could not look at her mother when she got out of the bath and hurried to her room. One day, Cassandra was going to another job interview and entered an elevator but on the elevator buttons, there was a rabbit on there. Curious, Cassandra pressed it as she then suddenly felt the elevator going faster and twisting around and around. "Am I going to crash?" She wondered, "No, it can't end like this! It can't!" Cassandra screamed in utter terror. 

Later on, Cassandra woke up, lying the grassy fields and gets up from the ground. She begins to look around however she looks around but almost lost her footing. She looked down, horrified that this mass of earth is floating in the sky! "Am I in Heaven?" wondered Cassandra, she begins to walk around. "Well if this Heaven, then why don't I feel dead?" thought Cassandra. She looked around to see perfect blue skies, white puffy clouds, tall buildings, and trees. She was curious so much that she didn't watch where she was going, Cassandra slammed into someone! "Oh hey--" She started to say but she saw that it was a thick, burgundy haired boy who has light skin and leaned muscular figure built. He wore a crimson glory colored T shirt, sweat pants, and sneakers. "Hi." Cassandra said, surprised. "I'm sorry, I didn't know where I was going, I apologize!" Although the guy looked cool-headed, he smiled kindly. "It's fine." He answered. Cassandra is touched by his smile, he sure was nice. Cute too. But she begins to hear his thoughts in her mind. "Are you OK?" asked the guy. "Uh, yeah." said Cassandra quickly. "What's your name?" asked the young man. "My name is Cassandra." answered Cassandra. "I'm Samson, Samson Diaz." said the young man. Cassandra nodded, "Yes...Do tell, Samson. Are you what they call a swordsman?" She asked. Samson looked at her with surprise, "How--How did you know?" He asked. Cassandra looked over at him and said with a smile, "I don't know. I guess my mind can read your mind." She replied. Samson looked at her with dazed amazement, "OK. Let's find out where we are." He finally said. Cassandra seemed intrigued, "'We'? As in us? Together?" She asked. "I like to get to know you, Samson. I really do." Samson smiled back and they both journeyed into the unknown. 

Meanwhile; A young man who is between ages 16-17 with brown hair and his eyes are piercing, striking, pure, untainted hue of a color. His name is Justice Dix. Next to him is Echo Decataur is between ages 15 and 16. He has headphones around his neck, his hair is in cornrows, and wearing a dark liver colored jumpsuit. Kamaitachi Jitsu is a boy between the ages of 14 and 15. He has silver-gray hair, with matching eyes, and wore clothes that were shadow gray. And the youngest, Borvo Teene is a 12 year old boy with baby blue eyes and bright blue wavy short hair. He looks like someone going to break down in tears, he was so cute. These boys are special; Justice has vision that's more enhanced than the average 20/20 vision. Echo has enhanced hearing. Kamaitachi can control the air and has a supersonic scream. Even Young Borvo has the power over water and has healing tears. "Yo Justice, where are we?" asked Echo. "How should I know, Ech?" snapped Justice. Kamaitachi sighed deeply, "Guys, c'mon. Don't start." He said. "Yeah, Kamaitachi's right. No fighting, please." said Borvo. Kamaitachi looks annoyed, "Geez, dude. Why you have to go and agree with every fricking thing I say?" He growled. Justice glared at him, "Kam, don't start." He warned. Kamaitachi remembered, "Sorry, Borvo." Borvo beamed and replied, "It's OK, Kamaitachi." Echo stopped for a moment, "Shh, did you hear something?" He said. Justice turned to him, "What? You hear something?" He asked. Echo nodded, "Yeah, something's coming..." He said. There was the green haired, earth bending guy is Zaden Ashara, the hot headed rubber-arm guy is Proteus Zehn, the one with the stoic frames is Lleu Deich, the flying dude is Hanuman Sampo and the big guy is Christopher Yuhl. "Die, you bastards!" Proteus cried, using his elasticity powers against Justice and his friends. "What the--?" Kamaitachi said. "Look out!" Justice and the others dodged it, however a fight breaks out until finally, a voice cries out: "Hold it!" They all stopped when they saw Cassandra and Samson. "What are you guys doing?" Cassandra asked. Justice looked at them, "Who are you guys?" He asked. "I'm Cassandra Endymion and this is my acquaintance, Samson Diaz." introduced Cassandra, gesturing towards Samson next to him. Proteus sneered at the two, "What a couple misfits doing here?" He remarked. 
Justice, Kamaitachi, and Echo turned to him as well as Christopher, Lleu, Hanuman and Zaden glared at Proteus: "MISFITS?!" The fight breaks out, Borvo stepped out of the way. He went towards Samson, who keeps him by himself like a fatherly type. Cassandra stared at everyone fighting and rolled her eyes up to the ceiling, then she flexed out her hand and yelled, "SHUT UP!!!" The others were lifted from the ground, Cassandra couldn't believe that she was the only doing this. Then she drops them down safely, she sighed and smiled. "Now, tell me....who's a misfit?" asked Cassandra with a witty look on her face. The others stared up in amazement, "Ohhhh...." They chorused. One minute later; Samson, Justice, Echo, Proteus, Kamaitachi, Christopher, Lleu, Hanuman and Zaden were standing up like soldiers. Cassandra paced left and right from them. "Listen up!" She said to them. "We come from different places of our homes, and brought here for an unknown reason. So, If we're going to find some answers, we need to ventured to the unknown and find this person responsible for this; we must put our colors--our personalities aside--and become one....Any questions?" Borvo raised his hand, "Ma'm, I have one." He said. Cassandra turned to him, "Yes Borvo?" She asked. Borvo then talked normally, "Um...Exactly where do we start?" Cassandra nodded, thinking about that. "Ah, that's a very good question my friend." She turned to the horizon of the city, pointing over to a building. "You see that building over there? This building stands out than the rest of them, it has stained glass windows. I'm curious to know what's in there." Cassandra looked at this with curiosity as she seemed amused but not naive like the rest of the crowd. Odd continued to rant. "People, I like to ask: Do you want to be widely entertained? People to know your name? Do you crave fame? I ask you, do you want to come and play?" Just then, Cassandra begins to have visions of monsters. They looked like a naked human, or large hairless wolf. Its body looked unorthodox as if it had been hit by a driving vehicle. And it had large claws. Their fangs are bared, and they attacked the crowd, who screamed as others ran for their lives. Cassandra saw this in horror as she remembers the night of the prom massacre. Traumatizing memories of her friends who were shot and killed. Just then; the creatures attacked, puncturing Cassandra's body abdomen. Cassandra felt anger, the wounds on her body begin to vanish from her skin. 

Samson, Proteus, Zaden, Lleu, Christopher, Hanuman, Justice, Echo, Kamaitachi, and Borvo are shocked to see this. Cassandra had tears in her eyes; thinking about her dead friends and their dreams which were gone forever. Now she was pissed, the creatures looked scared so they try to leave but Cassandra held them against their will and then killed them one by one with her telekinetic powers. The commotion started to attract the attention of others: Eulalie, Deirdre, Turan, Norna, Ariadne, & Juana and their new friends heard this. Curious, they walked over there to see what was going on. When they got closer, they were shocked to see Cassandra losing control on the monsters who had killed innocent lives. Once it was over, Cassandra finally calmed down and looked around the deceased of others, she saw that there was a child's body lying there motionlessly. She had tears in her eyes and she looked at the citizens who were watching her lose control. "Does anybody have anything to make a cremation? I want to make a proper funeral for the lives that are lost." said Cassandra. The others looked at each other, not sure what to do. Samson turned to them and said, "Listen, I know that was scary for all of you to see but this girl saved all of you from those beasts and she had a heart for the people that were killed." A bartender came forth with a bottle of liquor. A guy who was a smoker had a lighter. And someone who had fireproof materials & a proper funeral was made for them. While doing this cremation; Cassandra thought to herself, "What kind of person would sent so much monstrosity to kill innocent people? Whoever it was, they were gonna pay with their lives for this." Later on, Cassandra and her team--With Eulalie, Deirdre, Turan, Norna, Ariadne, Juana, and their gangs following--as they head for the stained glass windows building where they come across the front where a security scanner examines them. "Subject Examination Approved." said a computer voice. Then the double doors opened automatically opened at once. The computer voice said, "Please enter the door on your left, Mimir Sofus is waiting for you." "Neato!" Cassandra said. Kamaitachi gives her a look, "'Neato'?" He asked. Cassandra gives him a look, "Riddle me this, twitch." She remarked. Borvo giggles, "'Twitch'. Good one." Cassandra smiled, everyone walks in and saw a man they never met before. He had his hair in a short ponytail and wore clothes. 

He was meditating as Cassandra and the others walked in. Cassandra spoke up, "Hello? Are you the one responsib--" "Smoke." said the man, his eyes didn't open yet. Cassandra looked at him perplexed, "Beg your pardon?" She asked. The man responds back, "You smell of smoke, I can smell it from your clothes." The others were surprised, especially Cass. "Does this guy has a nose of a bloodhound?" She thought. "Oh, I'm sorry. Would you like me to bathe first?" asked Cassandra, politely. The guy opens his eyes and smiled, "No, no. It's not that bad." He assured her, turning to her and everyone else. "Can I help you?" asked the man. Cassandra remembers what she was going to ask, "Um, yes. Are you responsible for these strange events?" The man shook his head, "Oh no, I'm not. You people probably haven't met her but she didn't mean no harm, she was supposed to follow orders...Please forgive her." He said. Cassandra looked at him, this is was surprising. A girl was the cause of all this? "Who is she?" asked Deirdre. "Opehlia Tagtraum." Everyone looked at one another, "Can we talk to her?" asked Lifa. The man shooked his head, "I'm afraid you are going to wait until she wakes up from her nap. But let me explain why she did this and myself, my name is Mimir Sofus. The reason why she did this because we need to find someone who is brave enough, emotionally understanding enough to help others and fight to save the blood of innocence. Now before I continue, does anybody have any questions?" Again, Borvo raised his hand, "I have one, is this place Heaven?" He asked. Mimir smiled, chuckling a little. "I wish but no. This differs from the afterlife. This is a different world. It's called Father Sky, it's where floating islands and flying ships are resided." He explained briefly. Then moved on to the subject, he went into a wall, which was a secret drawer secluded in there. He pulled out one of a device with a screen on it. 

"This is interactive monitor device is called Moneta. It is a memory device that plays back good, bad, and traumatic memories of others. No camera recorded, it already can keep storage of memories like this. But besides that, this device has different applications--It has different applications: One is a telecommunication where you press on the speaker and ask the Moneta anything. You don't have to type, you can always speak into it to. Whatever you guys want." He said. He handed it to his rookies. Then, once everyone got one, Mimir then explains the rules: Cassandra, Eulalie, Deirdre, Turan, Norna, Ariadne, and Juana are to go to the other worlds in flying ships. Their teams cannot come with them, much to everyone's dismay, but they had to observe from the scrutiny monitors. The next thing Mimir tells the others is about Wendigos--the creatures Cassandra slaughtered with her powers. These mysterious creatures become faster and go on their hind heels and hands as they crawl like a spider. They can bite, so everyone needs to be on a look out for these things. Now that this was out of the way, Mimir gives them an hour to come up with a team name for everyone. During this process; Eulalie's team came up with the name 'Zodiac Tarot', Deirdre and the girls came up with the name titled 'Amazon Brigade'. Turan and Norna came up with the name 'Miscreants Band' for their love for carnage and also for justice. Even recklessness. Ariadne's team is 'Concord Ritters' and Juana's group is known as 'El Elite'. For Cassandra? She and her friends struggled for a team name however Cassandra came up with a name, her friends' last names each means 'ten' and there is a lot of boys in her squad. The name is known as 'Brother 10'. Once the results of this information has been sent, Mimir decided to let the others rest since they've been exhausted from all that has happened. Nevertheless there will be dark days ahead. 

A figure was busy writing in a book, she loved books as she tensed her hands a bit as she has perfect handwriting. But then she heard her mother calling her name, "Ophelia!" The figure took the headphones off her ears. She went to the edge of her balcony from her room to look down to see her mother on the couch, watching TV. "Ophelia, are you going to the gathering?" asked her mother. The girl seemed uncertain, her plum red lips begin to twist around, thinking. She then replies, "It could be loud." "Mimir was concern about that but it's not, don't worry. So...Do you want to go?" replied her mother. The girl smiled a little, "Are they going to be there? The ones that Mimir told me about before?" "Of course they will." answered her mother. The girl felt thrilled, "Then yes I'm going." she replied with a calm face. But when she went back to her room, she went into her a closet and squealed happily, "Yes!" Later, she had showered and brush her teeth. She freshens up and wears nice clothes. At the gathering, it wasn't so loud as she feared. But she seemed shy, looking around for Mimir. She found him talking and laughing with some young people. Ophelia is fascinated in the young woman who looked happy. Ophelia felt ease, curious how to approach this but she fears of disapproval, to be judged for her flaws. "No, never again. Don't let them in, don't let them see...You gotta be good like you have to be. Obscure, swim with the tide....Don't let them in." She told herself. One of them look back to see Ophelia, who turned away quickly. Mimir noticed her and grinned happily, "Ophelia! Come and say hello to our newest batch of operatives in the agency." Mimir said. Ophelia shyly approaches them, she makes her head look up and gave them good eye contact. "Hi there, my name is Ophelia Tagtrum. It's nice to meet you all." She said in a polite manner. Cassandra looks at her up and down, this was Ophelia? This little angel? Ophelia was a petite young lady with fair olive skin that was striking. Eyes dark brown and perfectly white pearly teeth. She had a curvaceous figure, she even had a large bust. Ophelia looked shyly at Cassandra and said, "You remind me of someone I used to know." Cassandra looked at her perplexed, "I do? Like who?" She asked. Ophelia felt like an idiot. She looked away, "I...Sorry, not important." said Ophelia quickly. "Great, just great! My first impression is that she reminds me of stupid Abigail! Ugh, why the hell I have to go and say that!" "No, no. You can tell me." assured Cassandra. Ophelia looked up at her hopeful, Was she trying to be nice? Or was it just an act for her to look annoyed and then be rude to her later? She didn't know. Cassandra smiled, "If you don't want to, it's OK." She assured her. 

Just then, Cassandra and the other girls are called for a mission. Cassandra turned to Ophelia and said, "I'll see you later then?" Ophelia brightens up, "Um, OK." She said. As Cassandra left, Ophelia feels like maybe...Just maybe, Cassandra can be her friend. In this assignment, which takes place on Caer Sidr, Cassandra and the others learned that there are fraternal twin brothers that are half breed, possibly the sons of a legendary creature, a yuki onna, so off they went. At tonight's show, Juniper and Cassandra are performing about two friends sadly departing from one another but Juniper added some lines. "Well, how about you join....Rappe Licht!" exclaimed Juniper. The crowd gasps in delight, Cassandra look stunt. "Rappe Licht?" She asked. Juniper sounded excited. "Yeah!" He squealed. Cassandra wasn't amused, "I'm sorry, why do you want me--Wait, you mean..." She said. Cassandra is shocked, she read Juniper's mind. He was serious! "Yeah, I mean. You may be new to these parts but we can help you out." Juniper explained. "You guys?" Cassandra asked. "It sounds like fun, we can teach all the tricks and the trades...." Juniper started to ranted but Cassandra begin to cut in. "Whoa, whoa. Slow down. I am not joining Rappe Licht, I'm sorry. I can't!" She said. Juniper looked stunt, "What do you mean?" He asked with timidness. Cassandra looked at the crowd who looked complex. Then back to Juniper and whispered, "May I talk to you? Off stage?" "No, you can tell me to the crowd." Juniper said, gesturing towards the people. Cassandra sighed, "All right, you can't ask a stranger you don't know to join." She admitted. "You're not a stranger, you are my friend!" Juniper protested. "What do you know about friendship?" Cassandra asked. Juniper looked down, "I know that you and I have a great friendship. You don't have to be scared." He pleaded. Cassandra cannot drag him into her life like this. "I--No, it will never work out. I'm sorry, Juniper." She said. She turned to the crowd. "Everyone, much obliged for coming. But, alas, The show is over." And turned on her heels and walked. Juniper watched her, "What? Wait, Cassandra!" He grasped her hand. Cassandra tried to wriggled her away, but the boy wouldn't let go. "Juniper, please let go of me!" She said. "Cass, please! I know you don't want to but I can help you." begged Juniper with innocent eyes looking at him. Cassandra looked at him sadly, "You can't...." She said. She gingerly pry his fingers away and walks off. Juniper is stunt, he felt tears in his eyes. "What did I do to you?" He cried. "Stop it, Joon." Cassandra said, in a nervous tone. 

Juniper runs after her, "No, no more hiding. What is the matter? I want to be your friend but you have to tell me." He exclaimed, still trying to understand her. Cassandra turned around fiercely, "NO!" She cried. But she accidentally loses control. Her powers made Juniper fall backwards but he wasn't hurt. He looked up at Cassandra but it's not fear that crosses his face, "Cass...Your powers....are real...." He whispered. Cassandra shake her head and fled. She fled from Rappe Licht as fast as her legs could take her, Juniper calls out Cassandra's name however Cassandra couldn't face him. She just couldn't. She was so ashamed. She ran off however Juniper didn't stop there, he wanted to go after her and convince her that he wasn't afraid of her. Desi was angry that he want to kill Cass however Eulalie won't let him do that. The three of them heads out, while Turan and Norna heads after with Margaus in between them. Ariadne runs her fingers through her hair as her ice/water powers are revealed to Dio, Phoebe, and Janus who watch with wide eyes at this. Ariadne looked at their gaping faces and grinned before she sped away with a trail of ice behind her. Dio was shocked but smiled, "Well, well. I knew something about her seemed special." He muttered. In the meantime; Juniper finally found Cassandra, who was sitting by the creek. "Hey Cass. Are you OK?" He asked. "Hi Joon." said Cassandra sadly, not looking at him. "Please, don't blame yourself. I'm not hurt, see?" Juniper said. "I could've killed you." replied Cassandra, her eyes squeezed shut. "I know, but you didn't. But please, open your heart and allow me to come in. I wanna help you but you need to invite me in. Control this power, I know we can work together on this." Juniper said with hope. Cassandra turned to him frantically, "How Joon? What ability to help me? Help me control my powers when I can't figure it out myself?" She demanded. Juniper didn't know what to say, "I--I don't know. I just want to help you...I'm not leaving my friend." He protested desperately. Desi arrived with Eulalie behind him, he was angry that Cassandra harmed Juniper. Juniper tried to stop him, talking to him that Cassandra didn't mean it. 
Just then, Heaven's light shine upon Cassandra as her hair begin to glow. Her skin was luminous as she looked more angelic. Juniper and Desi was shocked of this, but Cassandra wasn't the only one. Deirdre, Eulalie, Ariadne, Turan, Norna, even Juana all had their hair glowing like sparkling angels. Everyone could see what was going on. Then, a female archangel appeared before all of Rappe Licht, who were in great shock. "Hello there, everyone. My name is Ernmas. I don't think we met before have we? You see, these girls may be cursed with anger but they also have been blessed to be female berserkers called a Morrigan. Please be good to them, no trouble or harm will come upon them. Understand? Go with thou and be thy recruits for evil has been trying to invade in other places of Father Sky." said the mysterious woman. Juniper was intrigued, he had never heard of such things like this. When Ernmas vanished from sight, The glowing hair from their heads became normal. Eulalie looked more radiant than she already did, "Beautiful." whispered Desi. Eulalie looked at him, "Huh?" Desi flushed, "Sorry, never mind." He said. Eulalie glanced at him, her hair no longer glowed and Desi turned back to her. "Can we come with you?" He asked. Eulalie smiled, "Sure." She answered. Juniper looked worried, "I don't want to leave behind any of the others." He said. Cassandra took him by the shoulders and smiled in a reassured manner, "Oh don't be silly, their coming with us too." She said. Juniper beamed happily, and so there was more new members for Silver Branch. However, A loud speaker squawks on: "Cassandra Endymion, please come to Master Mimir please. Cassandra Endymion, please come to Master Mimir please."  Cassandra was shocked, What did she do wrong? So she decided to go see him; nervous. Once it was all said and done; Kintaro and Sayohime are pressured by these memories and have no idea who's doing this. In the meantime, Oinari and Konohana are experiencing the memories of how Cassandra first met Jack and boy, was it terrifying: 

Mictlan was hell, it had always been to hell. "What is this place? Oh god...!" gasped Cassandra. Brother 10 observes this as they couldn't believe this was Mictlan, it was a nightmare. Destruction, like the apocalypse. What kind of world was this? Turan was panicking and freaking out as she begins to lose her mind a little by the shock she was seeing of this place. Cassandra and the others were shocked to see a monster confronting her. Then Cassandra could hear its thoughts. "You--you want to eat me? No, I won’t let you!" said Cassandra to the monster. She flexed her hand and uses her telekinesis to kill this monster. The monster convulsed, it twisted, and then finally; it exploded! There was a mass of beige substances splattered all over her! Cassandra was stunt for a while before a grin broke over her face. She giggled to herself, "I did it! Ew....I really did it! I can't believe it! I just nobody saw--" She turns around as her smile faded. "--That."What she saw was a 15 year old boy. Chocolate brown hair. Red eyes. Light skin. Buttoned shirt, a cap on his head, it looks like. He was a teenage soldier, who looked horrified at Cassandra. He saw it, he saw her kill that beast. "Oh crap." Cassandra thought. "Busted! How do I get myself out of this?" She slowly smiled kindly, "Hello there---" she greeted but the boy lunged at her, "AAAAHHHH!" He cried. The boy begin to claw at her like a wild man. Trying to punch her but Cassandra restrained the boy. "Hey! Hey!" She protested, the boy did not yield. "Stop! Cease! Take it easy! Will you stop?! I am not going to hurt you!" Cassandra held the boy's fists away from her. "Who are you?!" The boy demanded. "My name is Cassandra. I swear, I will not hurt you. Here, I am not going to hurt--" She reaches over to touch his face but the boy recoiled away. "Get away, no! Don't you dare--Don't--" But he was helpless, Cassandra was calm as she stroke her hand on his face. At once, Cassandra could read his mind, know his name. But not completely of a lot.
"Did you seriously kill that Revenant?" asked the boy, softly. Cassandra did a double take. "That's a Revenant?" She asked in disbelief. The boy looked at her with amazement, "You never seen one before?" he asked. "I heard of them..but in all honesty, I didn't know that was an actual Revenant!" Cassandra pointed out. Just then, a voice called out. "Jack! Who are you talking to?" Another boy in the same uniform as the other guy's was standing there. He looked young, quite a fetching fellow. "Nobody!" Jack called, he turned back to Cassandra fiercely. "Listen, you gotta get out of here now!" He demanded. "Why? I can help!" Cassandra persisted. "No, you--" Jack started to say but the boy calls back: "Jack, who is that?" "No one!" Jack snapped. He turned to Cassandra with pleading eyes. "Please, get out now!" He begged. "I can help. I can hear that your thoughts are disoriented so--" Cassandra insisted, but Jack stopped her out of shock. "What?" He gasped. "You--you--can read minds? You can hear my thoughts inside of your own head?" "Of course I can." Cassandra said, in a matter of fact tone. Jack was shaken out of fear. The red haired boy appeared, "Jack? Who is this?" He asked. Cassandra smiled and held out her hand, "Cassandra Endymion. It's a pleasure to meet you." she said. The boy was stunt, he shook her hand though. "I'm Bellerophon Leseratte." He said. A girl with shoulder length hair appeared, wearing the same uniform as Jack and Bellerphon. "Boys, who is this girl?" She asked in a voice so soft but full of curiosity. "Wow, this your girlfriend?" Cassandra asked, to Jack. Jack glared at her, "She's not my girlfriend!" He declared. "Who are you? A witch?" The girl asked. "I am no witch, I am an ally and I came to help." Cassandra said. "No, she's--" Jack started to say, but the girl stopped him. "Hold up, Jack. This girl may able to help." She said, coming to Cassandra's rescue. 

"Sh'yeah, I killed a Revenant." Cassandra admitted. Bellerphon and the girl were shocked. "How?!" They asked. "I have an ability where I can move obstacles or other things with my mental conscious." Cassandra explained. Bellerphon and the girl looked at each other, they turned to Jack. "You know about this?" Bellerphon asked. "Yeah, but she doesn't know what the military does here." Jack said. "Let her help, Jack. She can be of help to us." The girl said. Jack was irked but he agreed. Cassandra smiled with delight, "Thank you." She said. The girl turned to her, she stretched out her hand. Although her stern face remained unchanged; she sounded nicer. "I'm Minerva Toter." "I'm Cassandra--" Cassandra said but other Revenants attacked and Cassandra, Jack, Minerva, and Bellerphon prepared for battle. They ran from them while battling. “Who are you? Why the hell did you come here?” screeched Jack. "Be careful, Jack Morder. Don't do anything reckless!" Cassandra called out. "How did you know my name?" Jack asked with shock. Busted! Cassandra turned away, "Later!" She shouted. The Revenants were chasing after them. Cassandra thought craftily as she reached over to Jack, carried him into her arms and flied! Jack was amazed by this, "What? You can fly?" He asked. Minerva and Bellerphon watched in amazement but they followed the gliding Cassandra. "YOU! CAN! FLY!" Jack shouted, Cassandra smiled at him. Minerva, and Bellerphon were amazed as well: "Oh my..." Bellerphon breathed. The two followed Cassandra and Jack to wherever they are going.

Back with Cassandra; They managed to find a quiet, abandoned place and landed there. Cassandra let  Jack go safely from her grasp."So, whatcha think?" Cassandra asked with a smile. Jack was speechless until he remembered what happened. "Arrrgghhh!!!!!!!" He shouted.  Jack charged at her with a vorpal blade but it smashed into a wall. "You're right, you're right. I was trying to show you--" Cassandra said quickly as possible. "You....You!"  Jack warned. "Right, sorry! Sorry!" Cassandra apologized."OK, OK, Take it easy." She claimed.  Jack nodded, "Are you an angel? A demon?" He asked. “Not at all, I just…I don’t know what I am but I can tell you one thing. I am no demon nor angel. I come in peace and came to know you— Jack Morder. Please, let me talk to the authorities and explain what’s going on.” Cassandra explained. At once; Jack lowered his weapon and nodded. “OK. I’ll trust you. But if you pull anything, I’ll kill you.” He said. Cassandra nods, obeying to his word but she fear of being hurt again. Minerva and Bellerphon came by, “Are you OK?” Minerva asked. “I am now.” Jack said. Minerva and Bellerphon stared at Cassandra with curiosity. Wondering who she is. Cassandra, Jack, Eulalie, Bellerphon, Deirdre, and Minerva walked back to the base of the camp where there were staring from the others. Jack looks at Cassandra, "Well, ask them if you want to talk to the 'authorities'." He whispered. Cassandra was nervous around these people, she cleared her throat and spoke up, "Hello there...Is there someone I can talk to? Please?" Just then, the commanding leader Adam Rustung appears before her. "I may be useful for any assistance." He said to her. A few minutes later, Adam & Siegfried are seen talking to Cassandra who was seated and looking rather shy. 

"Let me see if I heard you right, you are trying to tell me you took on a Revenant with just your mind. You didn't even touch it, am I correct?" asked Adam Rustung. Siegfried scoffed, he didn't even smile though. Adam gestured him to be quiet, Cassandra nodded. "Yes sir." She said. "That thing wanted to eat me...And I didn't, I didn't want to die so I had no choice but...Is that a problem?" Adam shook his head, "No. Not at all. I think you did it to survive and I must say I am impressed." He admitted. "Can I say something?" said Siegfried, "I like to see some proof of your power." Cassandra looked at him with disbelief, "Right now?" She asked. Siegfried nodded, "Yes." He said. "Me and my big mouth." thought Cassandra. She stood up as she said slowly, "OK..." Cassandra straightened herself together, she rolled her shoulders back and then she closed her eyes as she whispered, "...Here goes...." Concentrated; she was about to summon this power but the distraction of the door bursting open made her lose concentration. A soldier's voice called out, "Commander Rustung, I apolo--" Cassandra spun to him to glare however her telekinesis accidentally sent the man backwards, "Ahhhh!" He cried. "No!" Cassandra screeched, using her telekinesis to save the soldier, who was shocked over what just happened. "Do not tell anyone." begged Cassandra. The soldier was so frightened that he couldn't speak, he was speechless so Adam came to him and said, "I would advise you not to speak of what you saw to anyone. I believe this 'witch' you would try to accuse will not be in this record." 

The soldier saluted, "Yes sir!" He said and off he went. It was silent for a moment before Siegfried spoke up, "I don't think this is good for her to use this power. She shouldn't use it." Cassandra looked at him with surprise, "What--?" She asked. But lucky for her, Adam came to the rescue: "She needs practice, that's all. A little encouragement." He said. Siegfried glared at him, then he thought about it. "True...." Siegfried admitted, he was quiet for a moment before he spoke again, "...I have an idea." Krieger and Cassandra head out to the training area of the encampment. A lot of soldiers were talking a little, Cass saw Jack among the crowd. "Listen up!" Siegfried Krieger announced , silencing the chit-chat. The soldiers immediately were standing tall, and they looked stoned face. "Captain Siegfried Krieger!" They respond. Siegfried Krieger removed his cap and spoke to the others with authority. "You will assemble full tilt and without a sound." He said, loosening his white collar underneath his uniform. Ariadne looked at him with wide eyes, he looked almost dashing but she too went stone faced. Siegfried turned to the soldiers and then he called out, "Cassandra Endymion, step forward please." Cassandra froze, she gesture towards herself. Siegfried nodded, "Come forth." He said. Nervous, she approached him but Siegfried seized her by her chin and found herself looking at Siegfried's icy blue eyes. "Let me see those eyes." He instructed. Cassandra looked at him in the eye. Waiting. After what it seemed like an eternity; Siegfried nodded, "Hmm...They look normal, display your powers OK?" He says, letting go of her. "Just, relax." Cassandra looked around, she was shaken. Cassandra never learned how to maintain her powers, it was really scary for her to display it publically. Captain Krieger realized Cassandra was not using her powers, so he walked over to her and stares down. Cassandra didn't meet his eyes but he spoke to her: "He who is impulsive can be murdered. As a result, though we have heard of foolish urgency in battle, inventive has never been seen associated with far-off hindrances. To accomplish centenary fights is not of the cardinal merit. Conquer one's enemy past combating is the climax of power. You can't show fear, you are stronger than this." 

Krieger went behind her, speaking softly to her. "Allow your expedition be that of the tempest, your density that of the woods. In maraud and liberation be like the pyre, in stability like the peaks. Allow your strategies be crepuscular yet substantial as night, and when you run, drop like a drum fire." Then he spoke up, "Let's try it again." said Siegfried. He moved away, Cassandra took his words to heart and she concentrated. However she can hear something, she looked around but no one was speaking but she can hear in their thoughts. A song, it sounded strange. Like a chorus of an army. The song goes like this: “Art of war….” and Cassandra could hear a thought singing, “Quick as the cyclone air.” The chorus of thoughts belted into her mind, “Art of war….” The main thought crooned, “Of the calming as the woods.” The chorus of thoughts intoned in Cassandra’s head, “Art of war…” The main thought serenaded, “Be brutal as the flaring flames, adequate as the great peaks of the mountain.” The singing in her head, it gave her courage. She concentrated and then she managed to telekinetically break apart all of the objects of the training. All the dummies but she manages to control her emotions. Once she was finished; there was an applause from the others. She was embraced by someone from behind. She looked to see that it was George grinning and Margaret hugging her, Eulalie and the others praised Cassandra. Jack had a hand around Cassandra’s shoulder, he has a small but pleased smile on his face. For the first time, Cassandra could belong. She noticed that Siegfried was slowly applauding to her. His face remained unchanged however there was a hint of satisfactory.

While taking a walk in the forest, Cassandra saw Jack training but then Cassandra watched in horror as Jack turned into a Revenant creature, “Oh dear Lord! He’s a Revenant?” She thought. Revenant Jack begin to do all sorts of combat moves in order to take down these savage, killer monsters. Cassandra hide behind a tree, watching him work hard at his skills. Once Jack was done, he changed back to normal but he fell unconscious. This is it, this was her chance to see inside his head and she rushed over there. Cassandra kneel down at the unconscious Jack, she placed her hands on the side of his face and begins to read his mind: In a flash; she saw it. His memories. More clear though. She saw a memory of a young Jack living in a happy life but he was a fearsome person when it came to his anger. Jack was not an idiot, he was simply emotional. The memories changed--It was an unconscious dream of darkness and blood flowing...Wait? Whose blood is that? There were monsters with claws and baring their teeth. Someone called out a name, "Jack...Jack!" The boy, Jack, woke up from sleep with a start. He panted and looked around, his foster sister Minerva was calling his name. She was dressed in uniform. "W-what?" Jack asked. "Come on, we're gonna be late." Minerva urged. At once, Jack threw the covers to reveal he was in his pajamas. "Sorry, coming!" He called. 
As Minerva left the room; Jack got ready. He got his uniform on and looked out the window. The beautiful sky, would it be like this forever? He wasn't sure about that. "Jack! Minerva is waiting!" It was his mother's voice. "Coming Mom." He called. And left his room with his messenger bag. It was the first year of middle school, Jack and his friends were attending there. They were excited about the next field trip until one day, it happened. Jack was paying attention but he heard a scratching sound. “What the heck was that?” He wondered. He turned and was shocked to see an Revenant! Jack got up, when his teacher asked but saw the creature too. The Revenant broke in and wreck the classroom. The only ones that survived luckily were Jack, Minevra, and Bellerophon. They each hurried back to their homes, Jack enters his house but is stunt to find his mother struggling against an Revenant. She looks to see her son, “Everything’s going to be OK. Just don’t look.” “Mom!” Jack cried but his mother shake her head, “Sweetheart. Just go, please!” She said. Tears welled in his eyes, “No….No, NO, NOOO! I’m not leaving you! Just forget it!” Jack shouted. “JACK! GO, RUN!” screamed his mother. The Revenant bite into Jack's mother, who gasped. Jack was motionless, frozen, his mother was lifeless now as she bled to death. Jack was pulled away by Minerva, who dragged him off. She and he reunite with Bellerophon and other survivors from the school. Losing his mother to a Revenant was the most unsettling mental wound, and ever since that day; he vowed to wipe out as many Revenants as possible. 

When Jack was 15, his present age; He made friends during his training: Beowolf Kannibale, Apollo Himmel, Gaia Erde, two goofballs name George Trottel & Margaret Reiten and made a rival with Tristan Fanger but they made a truce and got along just a little bit. However things changed when Beowolf, Apollo, and Gaia turned out to be Revenants too as they were the ones that started the massacre of Jack's school. "Jack...I don't want to hurt you, I just want to understand you. To feel better, to feel like I'm not the only one." Cassandra thought, talking to him in his thoughts. Suddenly, she felt a burst of pain through her. "What's happening? I feel--Augh! It hurts!" She said, gasping. Jack regained consciousness, he was shocked to see what was happening. "Oh no!" He thought. Cassandra begin to change into a Revenant, she was unaware of what is going on but for the first time, she wanted to fight. She saw other Revenants and she went after them fiercely. She lunged at them as she rescues lives like the other soldiers and kills them. As soon as she is done; the soldiers stared at her in fear. Revenant Cassandra approached them and placed her claw-hand on Lieutenant Reiten. A few moments later; she was in astonishment. “Cassandra…Endymion? Is that you?” asked Margaret. Cassandra transformed back to normal. She gasps as she fell unconscious to the ground. "Did Cassandra just--?" asked George. "How did she do that?" Margaret inquired. Adam glanced at her body, his face was calm and relax but he looked concern at this mysterious girl. "Cassandra Endymion, what are you?" He thought. While she was in town; Tsubaki was going to her job and came upon a young lady, unknown to her is Tamamo Mae, and the lady left but she dropped something that says "TM MEMOS". Curious, Tsubaki took a look and accidentally struck herself: "Ow!" She cursed but she look and hurry up as she entered the train to get to work. 

When she got home; Tsubaki is dizzy as she learns that she is implanted with Tamamo Mae's memories and she begins to see the memories inside of her own head: At a banquet; there was lot of food, people were talking and laughing. There was the shy, reserved and fragile Tamamo Mae Sesshoseki. Sitting with her is Kazusasuke on the left, an arm around her. There was also Shuten and Ibaraki at the banquet. Tamamo Mae has ivory skin and black hair that was kept in two braided ponytails over her shoulders, red lips full and luscious. She has rosy cheeks, a slender but fit physique, and she wore a pure white dress that showed her ample bosom. But there was a hint of modesty. "How are you?" Kazusasuke whispered. Tamamo Mae shrugged, "I'm all right, it's seems tranquil and calm for a banquet." She said. Kazusasuke chuckles, "Great Watch makes good things happening to you." He remarked. Tamamo Mae looked uncomfortable, "Please, don't mention those people, OK?" She said. The double doors opened as Tamamo Mae looked scared, the crowd was struck with awe. "Oh my Lord!" A woman gasped. The crowd couldn't believe it, it was them. Kazusasuke stood up, "What is this?" He demanded. Captain Takumi step forward, "Tamamo Mae, we came to pay our respect to you." He said. Tamamo Mae looked confused, "To me?" She asked. Oinari comes forward, "What he means is, we came to visit you." She said. Tamamo Mae felt her heart lub-dubbing in her chest, "Captain Asano, who is this young man?" She asked. Takumi introdcued him to her, "This is Oinari, one of my best lieutenants, and this is his friend, Konohana." He said. Kazusasuke looked disinterested, "A besotted damsel, I see." He remarked in a bored voice. Tamamo Mae looked away, frightened, but heard Konohana's voice: "Hi!" Tamamo Mae looked nervous, "...Uh, um." She stuttered. Kazusasuke glanced at her, "Tamamo Mae?" He asked. Tamamo Mae could feel her heart, lub dub it went. Lub dub, lub dub. Thumpity thump, thumpity thump. Kazusasuke leaned over, "Look at them, it's all right." He whispered. Tamamo Mae turned her head, "Hello." She said and then looked away. "You OK?" Oinari asked. Tamamo Mae glanced back smiling, "Oh yes, just shy." She said. In another memory; Tamamo Mae was in danger but Kintaro is unsure about this. So Konohana and Oinari head over. Kazusasuke realized her friend's in trouble and he heads over there. When he frees Tamamo Mae; he gets cut from her knife and saw her vulnerability was only a ruse. 

"You really are pathetic, aren't you  Kazusasuke? You and your gang, you call yourselves ronin but you're despicable." Tamamo Mae mocked. Kazusasuke looked at her in shock while Tamamo Mae continued to torment him: "Not like how I killed your brother, Miurasuke, huh Kazu?" She said in a malicious voice, "Ohhh, when I'm done with you--You're gonna have lifelonging injuries for awhile dude." Kazusasuke was shocked, "You...you...lied to me?" He rasped. Tamamo Mae laughed at his expression, "Please give me your pain, oh my....oh god, if you knew how I was feeling about Miurasuke...ah!....You wished you did beg for mercy." She moaned while she caressed herself. Kazusasuke panted, "You lied, you used me you little bitch!" He hissed. Tamamo Mae placed her hands on her hips and smirked at him smugly. "What a loser, you bastard." She derided, "Aww, Little Brother lost his Big Brother didn't he? Well, how does it feel now? Did you feel anything from when you killed Kintaro's cousin? Huh? Huh? Did ya, did ya?" Angry by Tamamo Mae's betrayal; Kazusasuke shouted: "DIE, VIXEN SCUM!!!!!" He hurled at her, "I PROTECT YOU FROM GREAT WATCH AND MADE SURE YOU WERE UNTOUCHABLE AND THIS IS THE THANKS I GET?!" He shouted. The two were interrupted by a pounding on the door, "What's going on in there?" A male's voice called out muffling from the closed doors. Tamamo Mae gasped, "Ohhh---! It's them!" She rasped with excitement. Kazusasuke is shocked to hear it too, "No, it cannot be!" He moaned. Tamamo Mae giggled but she managed to call out in her timid voice persona, "Who is it?" "It's me, Oinari. And I brought Konohana. We came to help you." The male voice said. Immediately; Tamamo Mae pressed the button as Oinari and Konohana entered in. "You came to rescue me from this traitor?" Tamamo Mae said in a timid voice, hands on the sides of her face as she was trying to look touched from this. She had to turn away, pretending she was crying but really she was laughing in a happy but sadistic way, "Awww, how sweet! What a heroic match of valentines you are!" She gushed. 

"What the hell are you guys doing here?" He snapped. Tamamo Mae noticed the bruises on Oinari, "What happened to you?" She asked in a soft, shy voice. Oinari shook his head, "It's nothing, did this jerk hurt you?" He asked. Kazusasuke couldn't believe this, "What? Me? No, this little bitch here decided to turn her--" He claimed but felt someone whipped him, "OW!!!" He exclaimed. Tamamo Mae looked shocked, or pretended to, "Are you OK? I do apologize." She said in that sugary tone in her voice. As she leaned over towards him, Tamamo Mae whispered, "Listen you turn coat, just shut up and play along." Then, Tamamo Mae pretend to look sad. "I deserve the blame, Kazusasuke was treating me like his toy! I was so verbally abused by the bastard!" She said in a sobbing tone and covered her face. Kazusasuke looked at her in disbelief, "What?!" He shouted. "How could you? She was a friend of yours!" claimed Oinari, while he said that Tamamo Mae turned her head away and giggled maniacally. "You tramp! You loose girl, I am gonna kill you!!!!" Kazusasuke screamed, charging at her. But Oinari and Konohana stopped her, "Don't even! This girl is one of the most sweetest things ever! She's like, an ingenue-harlot complex of a young lady." Konohana claimed. Tamamo Mae was stunt by Konohana as she looked so brave and strong willed, this made Tamamo Mae galvanized by her. "Thanks, I--" said Tamamo Mae, but then she realized something, "Did you just call me an ingenue-harlot complex?" Konohana laughed, "Sorry. You just look modest but you look sexy at the same time." She said. "Don't be so kind, you could be manipulating her. I mean, Kintaro took his cousin's life. It was what we told him." Kazusasuke said smugly. Konohana and Oinari couldn't believe what they were hearing, Tamamo Mae looked at him. "Wait, you were there when he--" She asked. Kazusasuke laughed, "Tamamo Mae-pumpkin, he's a killer. He shall be punish for the crime while we get away with it." He said. 

Tamamo Mae trembled, then she begin to pull her hair as she said softly, "You bastard." She glared at him, "What do you think I am? Stupid? You don't think I know? How you forced Kintaro Sakata to kill his cousin? How you video taped and you mocked him at the restaurant? You really think I'm that naive? Am I really a little girl, Kazusasuke?" She said, raising her voice. Konohana and Oinari looked surprised by this. "AAAAAHHHHHH!!!!! YOU STUPID BASTARD, YOU SUCK!!!! I AM SO SICK OF EVERYONE CLAIMING I'M SOME SORT OF SWEET, SHY GIRL WHEN I'M NOT LIKE THAT ALL THE TIME!!!!! I BECOME DEPRESSED WHEN THEY SAY SWEET THINGS AND THE TRUTH REALLY HURTS KAZUSASUKE!!!!!" shouted Tamamo Mae. Kazusasuke looked at her with fear, "Tamamo Mae?" He asked. "SHUT UP, IF YOU THINK I'M GOING TO BE YOUR RAT, THEN I SHOULD SNITCH ON YOU, YOU SHOULD BE LOCKED AWAY AND HAVE A LETHAL INJECTION IN YOUR BLOODSTREAM!!!! NO, YOU SHOULD BE HANGED!!!! DECAPITATED!!!! BURN THE BASTARD! DIE, DIE, DIE!!!!!" ranted Tamamo Mae. Kazusasuke shook his head, laughing: "You know what? Yeah, but here's something I should've said to you...Your mama so ugly and fat that she couldn't been love by her own mother and father while putting up with not losing any weight." He said. Then he laughed as Oinari and Konohana looked at him in disbelief. Tamamo Mae was really pissed, she hated when anyone says bad things about her mother: "I am going to cut your puny body into pieces, and pissed ALL OVER YOU KAZUSASUKE!!!" She shouted. "LIKE HELL, JUST LIKE YOU KILLED MY--!!!" Kazusasuke shouted but was cut off by Tamamo Mae who yells out, "DIE, SCUM!!!!" and kills him. She panted and panted, "That jerk ass...How dare he--I trust him." Tamamo Mae said in a malicious voice. She had tears in her eyes, "They're all the same...All of them, they start off nice but as the time past of days, they show their true colors." She noted, "Just like that bitch...her sister, her husband, her rotten cesspool she called 'sanctuary'....It is written, 'My house shall be called a house of prayer,' but she make it a den of robbers.” 

Oinari and Konohana glanced at her, "Tamamo Mae?" Konohana asked. Tamamo Mae turned to the others and bowed, "Excuse me, I must be off." She said. And she left them. The next day; Oinari and Kincho were sparring with one another while Konohana and Hangaku watched. Hangaky noticed Konohana swooning over Oinari, "You know, Konohana, you should totally ask Oinari out." She suggested. Konohana was surprised, she blushed and looked away. "Me? I don't know...But if you want to talk about asking someone out, why not ask Tsuna?" She said, gesturing towards Tsuna who was watching to her. Hangaku made a face, "Tsuna? He's a freak, right?" She remarked. Konohana gave her a double glance at her and Tsuna. "What? No!" She replied. "I'm serious, I heard of rumors about him being a half human, half freak." Hangaku explained. "What kind of freak?" Konohana asked. "Just those Wendigos maybe. Totally weird." Hangaku whispered. "He's not weird, does he drink blood or eat flesh?" Konohana asked with concern. "I don't know, not that I know of." Hangaku said, "But I heard that his dad was a Wendigo hybrid, a really freaky one. As it said, this guy was once human before he turned into a Wendigo. Tsuna's mom found out she was pregnant with him, she was scared and wanted to abort the baby." Konohana gasped, "No kidding?" She said, "What happened to the father?" Hangaku shrugged, "My guess is that she shot him and they found her crying. Poor thing." She said. Unknown to the girls; Tsuna was actually listening! He looked over at Hangaku, "Who does that girl think she is? She doesn't know anything about me!" He thought. Tsuna turned away in disgust, he couldn't believe it. Back with Oinari and Kincho; their sparring continues. "What's wrong, Oinari?" Kincho said, "Tired yet?" "No, not exactly!" Oinari panted. He continued to fight as Hangaku, Konohana, and Tsuna watched. Then, there was this laugh and everyone turned to see Tamamo Mae, coming down the steps in a jacket and jeans with black boots. "You call that a battle?" She remarked, "Please! That was boring! Maybe I can demonstrate for everyone on how much a fighter I am."

"You want to fight both of us?"  Oinari asked. Tamamo Mae smirked, "Yeah, that's right." She said. Kincho was calm but his tone was disbelief, "You can't be serious." He answered. Taking off her jacket; Tamamo Mae revealed to be in a tank top, "I am dead serious." She said. Oinari and Kincho glance at one another with their eyes before looking back at Tamamo Mae, "You don't stand a chance." Kincho warned. The vixen cocked an eyebrow, she smiled in a mischievous way. "Wanna bet?" dared Tamamo Mae, "Come at me." Oinari chuckled a bit, "You're gonna get hurt." He said. "Just do it." Tamamo Mae said in an annoyed voice. Oinari went first, "Here I come." He said, letting out a growl however Tamamo Mae dodged that, she used a kick to send him backwards. Oinari didn't flinched and tried again but Tamamo Mae blocked that. Hangaku smiled, Konohana's eyes were wide with impressiveness. Tamamo Mae laughs, "You trust your eyes and strength too much, Oinari, you're not a chameleon you know. And neither you're a wrestler. Can't see everywhere at once." She said. But she didn't know, Kincho grabbed her from behind, Tamamo Mae managed to get away but Kincho punched her. "Ohhh--!" Konohana gasped, covering her mouth with both hands. Hangaku smirked. Tamamo Mae glanced over at Kincho with a grin, "Bad move." She remarked. She took down Kincho and Oinari one by one, but they still weren't going to back-down. Tamamo Mae was excited, "Come on boys, I like the fitness program here--It's a good workout." remarked Tamamo Mae. Oinari tried to attack however Tamamo Mae was quicker, much faster! She was seized by her wrists by Oinari, but she clapped her hands together and took them down before he hit him baseball bat style. Oinari was stunt by that, "How is she doing that?" He asked. Tamamo Mae shuffled, "You boys are tense, I'm calm. Fluid. You gotta be fluid--like water." She explained.

When she left the training room; Tamamo Mae walked but she has a smile on her face, "Every single tiny microscopic little thing must go according to plan. And it is, almost a few pieces in place....Samon will receive the karma that she so deserves." She thought to herself. Reflecting her was a hood like cloak and wore a helmet. Tamamo Mae laughed maniacally as she skipped away. Usodori burst into the room, "TSUNADE!!!!" She cried. Everyone jumped, Tsunade glanced at her: "Yes, Usodori?" She asked. "Come quick everyone, it's Tamamo Mae! She's having a brekdown and her clothes as well as her hair were burnt slighlt but she's alive." claimed Usodori. Immediately, they rush out to find Tamamo Mae being escorted by Kincho and Hangaku: "FIRE, OH THE FIRE!!!" She screamed. Kintaro helped her up when she almost fell over, "Tamamo Mae, you OK?" He asked. Tamamo Mae panted and wheezed of coughing, "Yes, I--My god! Kasuga--She's insane my beloved school! Oh!" She said in between gasps and coughing. Hangaku patted her arm, "Take it easy, shh!" She said, stroking her hair and hugging her. "You're alive, that's all that matters. Calm down." Kincho assured her. "Yeah, still..." Tamamo Mae said sadly. Konohana appeared, "Tamamo Mae, is that you?" She asked. "Konohana! Oh my god, I'm so glad to see you!" Tamamo Mae said with relief, hugging her so much that Konohana was startled. Konohana felt pity for her, "It's OK, Tamamo Mae. It's OK." She said, comforting her crying. Later on; Tamamo Mae applied aloe vera cream to her burns and cut the ends of her burnt hair. She heard someone come in, it was Kincho: "Not bad, Tamamo Mae. Not bad." He remarked. "Says you." Tamamo Mae said, "Ugh, can you believe the agents such as Kintaro and Sayohime? They're so jittery, especially Oinari and Konohana. Goodness, that dear sweet girl--She smelled good, like baby powder with musky and tropical scent. Shoot me, I sound like a Sapphic." "Yeah, tell us something we don't know." Hangaku replied, rolling her eyes." Tamamo Mae begins to calm down, "OK, Calm down. Let's think of that happy place yes? Rainbows, sunshine, sweet kittens, bunnies, and summer. Hot heat, ice cream--chocolate, hotels by the beaches, no Great Watch agents..." She said. Again, the images of all the agents looking at her as she had embraced Konohana. She could see them all: Konohana included, Oinari, Kintaro, Sayohime, Tsuna, Momotaro, Kincho and Hangaku. 

These mental images overwhelmed her so much it made Tamamo Mae's heart pounding, loud for her to hear. Adrenaline skating down her arms along with goosebumps. "AAAHHHH!" screeched Tamamo Mae. Hangaku felt like she woke up instantly by a bad dream, that vixen was one insane kitty. "Is she going insane?" Kincho asked seriously. "Yup." Hangaku replied. "No surprise." remarked Kincho. Hangaku looked at him with curiousity, "Has she always been like this?" She inquired. "When it comes to her obsessions, it's never good." explained Kincho. "Yeah obsessions, did you see the way she hugged Konohana? What do they call it...Sapphic?" Hangaku said. "No, she's not Sapphic. She's AC-DC, she's interested in both males and females." corrected Kincho. Hangaku's eyes widened, "Wow." She said. "I can't get those bastards out of my head, how hard is to get rid of these images?" wondered Tamamo Mae. "How long can you keep playing like this? I know you got an obsession for them though they have something going on." Kincho asked. Tamamo Mae thought for a moment but then she suddenly looked shocked and then a smile appeared on her face. "I have an idea on how to make my STALKER GAME interesting." She said. Hangaku grimaced, "Oh great, I'm afraid of what she has in store in that mentally shattered, traumatized cerebrum of hers." She remarked. In the meantime, Kintaro was watching the news on his computer about the school's rebuilding is impossible to do since the burnt pieces were hot to touch. Momotaro, friends and comrades gathered around him. "You're still going on about that? C'mon bro. Let it go, it's over." Momotaro said. Kintaro turned to his friends, "I don't think you guys get it, something was troubling with that vixen. And then murders around the school of the reunion. It was a horror event, but Sayohime saw much violent Tamamo Mae is, and how she spew so much hatred from that mouth of hers!" He said. "I bet it's stress, she didn't mean it!" Konohana suggested. "How do you know? You don't know, she's insane!" claimed Kintaro, slamming a fist down. Momotaro looked at his brother, "Kin--!" He started to say, Kintaro stood up immediately and slammed both hands on the desk, "She's Kasuga, why do think Tamamo Mae's always disappearing? The vehement behavior? It all makes sense!" He exclaimed. Tsuna put a hand on his best friend's shoulder. "Kin-chan, listen! We don't know that, maybe Tamamo Mae had to use the bathroom or something. Don't jump to conclusions all right?" He said. Kintaro turned to his best friend, "I know the truth." He said. 

Just then, a voice startled everyone in the room: "Well, well, paranoid aren't we Kinny?" a voice said. From above, Tamamo Mae was standing there looking down at the gang. "I heard the whole thing. You really think I'm Kasuga? You're a paranoid, crazy young man, I love it but I'm hurt by your words. Here's how you can make up for it...Fight me, boy." She dared. Kintaro looked at her with a squinty glare. "Aww, Kin baby's scared of me? Don't worry, I won't hurt you--" mocked Tamamo Mae, then she did a hand stand on the bars and did an aerial flip before landing among the gang, who jumped back startled, as she said: "--I just want to whoop ass you to the ground! How 'bout it?" Kin knew where this was going, "What do you want?" He asked. "I have a few conditions, if you beat me; you have your victor for now but if I win, you have to apologize and also..." explianed Tamamo Mae. But she stopped and looked over at Oinari with a lecherous glance, confusing the latter, "I like to ask Oinari out on a date." She announced. Hangaku gasped, Oinari is shocked as well as Konohana. "Um, what was that last part?" Oinari asked. Konohana was jealous by this, "He doesn't accept, Tamamo Mae. I mean, he doesn't want to go out with...Ah!" She said but was dragged away by Oinari, who said, "Can you excuse us for a moment?" The two of them left the room for a moment. Konohana had to talk some sense into him, "Scandalous, you can't be serious can you Oinari? It's a trick, a dirty trick!" She said in a convincing tone. Oinari sighed, "I have to do it." He said. "What?!" gasped Konohana. "That's the bet and I can't back out." Oinari replied. Konohana couldn't believe he said that, "Oinari, I....Mmmph!" She protested before she pouted and followed Oinari. "I have to, even if I don't want to. Believe me, Hana, I really don't want to go on this date with her." Oinari claimed. Konohana nodded, they return to where everyone was. "All right, have you reconsidered? You gonn ask me or what, you brooding bad boy?" Tamamo Mae asked, shaking her hips side to side. Oinari sighed, he took a breath and inquired, "Tamamo Mae...Would you go out with me?" An impish look appeared on Tamamo Mae's face, "Sure my dark angel of shadows, I'd be happy to--If I win!" She claimed. Then, she giggled happily with excitement. "This is gonna be fun!" Tamamo Mae said. 

Oinari and Konohana managed to escape together but they discover something more terrifying; Kincho and Hangaku are Kasuga's allies. Oinari couldn't believe it, his friend--his rival--his comrade--How could he do this to sensei and him like that? But the two of them found a secret laboratory and a blanket covering somthing. Oinari pulled it off, then his eyes bulged with terror as well as Konohana--It was the costume of Kasuga's. "What? Is that Ka...Ka...?" Konohana stuttered. "Kasuga?" A voice said. Oinari and Konohana turned around, there she was standing there. Wearing a kelly green dress. "Tamamo Mae!" Oinari said. Tamamo Mae smiled in a sadistic manner, "Ah, my secret has been discovered. You caught me red handed." She said but glares at Konohana, "You were so stupid, weren't you Konohana? So naive, so stupid!" Tamamo Mae's eye is twitchy, her smile looking menacingly. "You know killing my 'friend' when he was a traitor. I knew that and I pretended to be a timid girl that couldn't look at any of you two withouth getting those burning, mental images out of my head." Tamamo Mae said. "What?" Oinari said with disbelief. The memory comes back to haunt: Tamamo Mae trembled, then she begin to pull her hair as she said softly, "You bastard." She glared at him, "What do you think I am? Stupid? You don't think I know? How you forced Kintaro Sakata to kill his cousin? How you video taped and you mocked him at the restaurant? You really think I'm that naive? Am I really a little girl, Kazusasuke?" She said, raising her voice. Konohana and Oinari looked surprised by this. "AAAAAHHHHHH!!!!! YOU STUPID BASTARD, YOU SUCK!!!! I AM SO SICK OF EVERYONE CLAIMING I'M SOME SORT OF SWEET, SHY GIRL WHEN I'M NOT LIKE THAT ALL THE TIME!!!!! I BECOME DEPRESSED WHEN THEY SAY SWEET THINGS AND THE TRUTH REALLY HURTS KAZUSASUKE!!!!!" shouted Tamamo Mae. Kazusasuke looked at her with fear, "Tamamo Mae?" He asked. "SHUT UP, IF YOU THINK I'M GOING TO BE YOUR RAT, THEN I SHOULD SNITCH ON YOU, YOU SHOULD BE LOCKED AWAY AND HAVE A LETHAL INJECTION IN YOUR BLOODSTREAM!!!! NO, YOU SHOULD BE HANGED!!!! DECAPITATED!!!! BURN THE BASTARD! DIE, DIE, DIE!!!!!" ranted Tamamo Mae. In reality; Oinari and Konohana were shocked by this revelation as that was really not what it seemed to them but it was and it wasn't pretend. But Tamamo Mae continued, "How about the time of the school burning? That was me when I was Kasuga at the time." The two of them remember on the news of the school burnng but before that, there was reports on the murdered victims: there was a bloody pool on the floor; that pool of blood belonged to Naosuke, his body was face down lying there while his killer--an unknown, slender woman in white lingerie--took his blood and wrote something on the floor: KASUGA. Then, A corpse lying on the bathroom, legs were cut off. The body belongs to Shojo, her killer wore a blue suit and a mask while writing on the mirrors with her blood in the girls room: KASUGA WAS HERE! Next, another carcass in the library whose skin off her back was ripped. 

That corpse is Shikome, her killer wrote on the floor near Shikome in bloody lettering: KASUGA RULES. Later, someone was hung up in the janitor's closet, the corpse was bled dried and look like she had been strangled. That body was Muonna, her face was blue and lifelesss from being choked. The killer wrote on the walls in Muonna's blood, "KASUGA LIVES!" and left. A half minute later, Issie's body was found drenched in red. She looked as if she had been killed in a violent manner and on her forehead written in blood that reads, "KASUGA'S REVENGE". and then Jorogumo was murdered after she was left with a slit mouthed mark across her mouth.Horrified; Konohana try to cover her ears, "Stop it." She whispered. "And the time I went on that date with Oinari? That was a set up to get you two together, I framed Konohana as well, to break you two up and put you back together." rambled Tamamo Mae. Then she looked at them and said, "Why don't you come with me? You two and I could have a better life than with Great Watch! You will never see them again!" "NO!" Konohana said, she was about to leave but Tamamo Mae stopped her: "What's wrong? You look so sad, don't you love me?" She asked. Konohana shivered. "I can't....I DON'T WANT TO BE WITH SOMEONE WITH YOU!" shouted Konohana. "You're such a freak, we don't want to be your friend!!!!!!" Oinari hollered, the two of them ran away. They try to escape, Konohana try to open the door. She turned the handle however nothing happened. "What's wrong?" asked Oinari. "The door won't open." Konohana squeaked. Oinari was horrified by this, "Great!" He groaned. But the two of them stopped in their tracks when they heard Tamamo Mae's voice, "Oooooinariiiiii, Konohanaaaaaa...." Oinari trembled, "Crap!" He said. "Oh no!" gasped Konohana. She try to jiggle the handle, "Come on, come on!" She moaned. But the door behind them burst open and Tamamo Mae appeared with insanity in her eyes, "I FOUND YOU!" She cried. "AAAAHHH!" Konohana screamed. She try jiggling it harder so she used her psychokinesis and broke the door down, Oinari grabbed her hand and they ran for their lives while the insane, passionate Tamamo Mae chased them down with a sickle waved around. Oinari and Konohana turned a corner and was surprised to see Kincho and Hangaku, they frozed for a moment. "Oinari!" Kincho said. "Kin--Kin--Kincho!" gasped Oinari. Tamamo Mae came from behind, "What are you two waiting for?" She asked in a frazzled tone, "GET THEM!!!" But Kincho and Hangaku just let the couple run past them. Tamamo Mae let out a screech, Oinari and Konohana were in a room full of objects and try to find a place to hide. They hide behind a shelf and waited. Tamamo Mae, Hangaku, and Kincho came in the room to search for Oinari and Konohana. "FIND THEM, FIND THEM AND BRING THEM BACK TO THE ROOM!" Tamamo Mae's voice ringed out. 

Hangaku and Kincho searched the room, Kincho managed to find Oinari and Konohana hiding but he doesn't say a word. He walks back to Tamamo Mae, "M'lady, they are not here." reported Kincho. "What? Check again!" Tamamo Mae demanded. "Why look again when they're not here, let's find them in a different area..." suggested Kincho. Tamamo Mae growled, "YOU SELF RIGHTEOUS BASTARD!!!!" and kicked Kincho to the ground. Hangaku was scratched violently across her abdomenal area, and Tamamo Mae left the room in a fit of rage. Once the coast was cleared; Konohana leaves her hiding spot as she could see Hangaku was still alive but wounded. "What are you doing? She's gonna come back!" Oinari rasped. "Oinari, can you get me bandages? I have to heal her." Konohana ordered. Oinari looked surprised, "OK." He said. Kincho got up, "Anything I can do?" He asked. "Get me some oinment and an ice pack." instructed Tamamo Mae. Kincho did, he went and hands Konohana the ice pack after giving her the supplies she need. But Konohana gently pushes the ice pack, "No. For your head." She said. Kincho is surprised, "Thank you." He said. Oinari emerged from the hiding spot. "Why Kincho?" He asked. Kincho looked up, "She's after someone that robbed her happiness, destroyed part of her life, and she was getting revenge." He explained. Konohana used the plant-like cream and medical supplies. "Hey Hangaku, lift your shirt a little." She asked. Hangaku was about to but she glares at the boys, "No peeking!" She warned. Kincho and Oinari looked away; "You know Kincho, you were always a double agent." Oinari said. "Heh, just trying to help those that need it." Kincho said. After Hangaku's abdomenal area was covered with bandages, she put her shirt down and the boys looked back to see Hangaku was sitting up a little. "What do we do now?" Kincho asked. "I don't know, what do we do?" Hangaku wondered, "I mean...Look what she did to me. To us. To Great Watch." "I think we should together." Konohana suggested. Kincho, Oinari, and Hangaku glanced at her, "What?" They asked in unison. "I think she...she needs some time to be alone and get the best help. Or whatever she has to do. I don't think she cares about us, or you. Besides, she hurt you two. And I want to make things right for not just me and Oinari but for you guys too." Konohana explained. "Konohana..." Oinari said softly. Konohana turned to Kincho and Hangaku, "Please, let me help you. Help me, help you." She begged softly. Kincho and Hangaku looked at each other before nodding. Hangaku looked over at Konohana and Oinari saying, "We shall follow you." She said. Konohana smiled, "Good." She said. Oinari smiled too. Hangaku stood up but she stumbled, Konohana managed to catch her. "Ooof!" Hangaku groaned. "Hangaku!" Konohana gasped. "I'm sorry about this, Konohana but can I have your shoulder?" Hangaku said. "Yes, of course." replied Konohana. As the four them try to escape; Konohana saw something that caught her eyes. She saw pictures of her and Oinari. She let Kincho takes Hangaku for a moment so she can take a look, "What is this? She...she's been watching us? Us? All this time?" Konohana said with horror, "What are we to her? What are we?" Oinari looked at her with pity; he, too, was disturbed by this discovery. "An object of her affection, her sick obsession..." explained Kincho, "I mean we've all got our obsessions don't we?" "Damn straight." A voice said. The four of them froze with fear. "Tamamo Mae!" Konohana gasped. 

Tamamo Mae wore a red and black dress with a diamond design and mesh shoulder panel, carrying an ax in her hand. "You know, you people think you know me but you DON'T! YOU DON'T KNOW A DAMN THING ABOUT ME AND I'M FINE WITH THAT!!!!! YOU DON'T HAVE TO KNOW, I'd been obsessed with you two since you walked into the room. And I fell out of my hotel room, left for dead until Hangaku and Kincho saved my lives. They were going to help me get close to you two. And also my plot in my revenge. And NOBODY is going to stop me!" Tamamo Mae ranted. "You're crazy." Konohana said with fear. Tamamo Mae looked at her with disbelief, "Me? Crazy? You don't know even know the definition of crazy." She claimed. Konohana looked at her with disbelief, "Oh, I don't? What do you mean I don't? I'm not the type with mommy issues I'll bet. Your mother must be pretty desperate to have such a daughter like you!" She said. Tamamo Mae tries to hack at Konohana with an ax but missed, "YOU SHUT UP ABOUT HER!!!!!" She shouted. "Tamamo Mae, why are you doing this? Lying? Manipulating? Killing?" Oinari protested. Tamamo Mae chuckled darkly, "Oh come on, Broody Boy. You know me, I got a mentally shattered! Twisted! Mind in this friggin' mind of mine! And only way you people can't crack me is because I've been cracked before! MENTALLY, EMOTIONALLY, AND PHYSICALLY! I AM NOTHING, NOTHING DO YOU HEAR ME?! I WAS WRECKED INTO PIECES, PIECES!" She shouted lunging at them. "GET AWAY FROM US!!!!" Konohana said, pushing Tamamo Mae back into a wall and the ax thrown on the other side. Thrashed into a wall; Tamamo Mae screamed in hysterics, clucthing herself. She could see it in her mind, branded whips thrusted onto her bare flesh. "Oh, I didn't mean to--" said Konohana. But the four of them noticed a keloid scar on Tamamo Mae's back. It looked like a fungus, a dark red bloodied fungus there. "Oh my....What is that?" Konohana rasped. "Damn, that is an ugly scar there." Oinari remarked softly. He reached over but Tamamo Mae got up, "DON'T TOUCH IT!!!!!" She screamed.

"Give it up, Tamamo Mae, I don't feel that way 'bout you." confirmed Tamamo Mae. "I swear by my savior, you will love me--You and Oinari--come with me and you will see a brave new world unlike any other." Tamamo Mae said. Oinari and Konohana looked at one another before thinking of something, "Um, we love to but we can't. We have our friends, unlike you." claimed Oinari. Tamamo Mae laughed bitterly, "Who needs friends! Friends backstab, they betray, and use you to feel better about themselves." She replied. She managed to fight back against them both, while Konohana and Oinari are dodging from the vixen. "You know, I don't think Kin or Sayo would approve of that." answered Konohana. "And you're a traitor, hypocritical skeeze." added Oinari smugly. "Why fon't you find your own mates that are your type?" Konohana finished. Enraged at hearing this; Tamamo Mae screamed: "BITCH!!!!" Konohana let out a breathy sigh, annoyed, "Look TM--I don't know why you're like this. You're an obsessive, emotionally unstable, and crazy harpy. That's not what we need right now in our lives." She said. Tamamo Mae looked confused, thinking while turning back at them. "Dammit! You stupid girl! Why would you say that?" She demanded. "You're an ax-crazy stalker who killed a bunch of people, burnt down a school, lied to us, and cause the break up between me and the love of my life...Oinari." Konohana answered. Amazed by those touching words, Oinari couldn't believe she could say: "Konohana..." He whispered. Tamamo Mae's temper rising, "You. two make me. sick...DIE YOU DRAGON SHINOBI AND YOU BLOSSOM PRINCESS!!!!" She screamed. "Let me out!" Konohana begged, banging against the cage. Tamamo Mae turned to her, "Like hell, Blossom! Don't worry my little cereza bloom--You won't ever have to see GW again!" She said smugly. Konohana turned to the unconscious Oinari, shaking him while exclaiming: "Oinari, Oinari! Wake up!" Oinari stirred around and woke up, looking around. "Wha--What is this place? Where are we?" He mumbled. 

Tamamo Mae stretched out her arms as she said, "Welcome to the broken remains of my former hideout." Oinari is stunt, "No, it can't be. It's coming back to me." He said, clutching his head. Tamamo Mae smirked, "Yes, the time I diced ya..Or try to." She replied. Oinari couldn't believe it, "No, why did you bring us back here? You know what you did!" He demanded. "Oh, I did? If you didn't go looking in places you shouldn't be in then I wouldn't be in this hell hole and you people wouldn't hate me." Tamamo Mae remarked. Konohana looked at her with disbelief, "Hate you? Oh please, we outright loathed you! You're a heartless killer for what you did to those people and that school." She spat. Tamamo Mae banged against the cage hard, startling them both. "STUPID GIRL, THEY WEREN'T VICTIMS! They bullied me and betray me in high school! A teacher defiled me of my innocence! And the school didn't do a damn thing about it!" She screeched. Konohana couldn't believe it as she and Oinari exchanged glances at one another, "Wait, hold on! Is that why you--?" She started to say but Tamamo Mae finished, "Yes, I got rid of them all! They were life ruiners who followed me as I begin to break!" She exclaimed. "What does that mean?" Konohana asked. Tamamo Mae realized what she said, however she shouted back: "None of you DAMN BUSINESS, YOU FRIGGIN' SUGAR BLOSSOM!!! You're too much of a ditz to know shit!" Konohana was hurt, "Geez! You're so hurtful, you know that? A manipulative, cold, and selfish girl who's needy! You're a liar! A psycho and you know it." She claimed. Tamamo Mae laughed, "You don't get it, do you? I am not a selfish girl--What a joke! How am I a selfish person? I saved Kintaro and Sayo from burning down the cesspool of a school OK?" She said. As the memories come to an end; Tsubaki was shocked, "Oh my...What the hell? What's going on?" She wondered. In the meantime; Kincho, Tsuna, and Hangaku were implanted with the memories of Eulalie: Every time they were busy; they had a memory, or more than one, playing in their head and it somehow drove them all nuts: 

Eulalie was overwhelmed by the swarm of Wendigos and managed to fight them off with her dark powers. She lost her balance as she struggles. Thinking of her fear towards guns; Eulalie thought: "How can I face my fears when I struggle to fight? How far can I go before reaching my limit?" A Wendigo is about to pounce her until someone hold it back. Eulalie looked to see who it was--It was a figure in a jumpsuit made from spandex and a trenchcoat. He wore a hooded cloak along with spandex gloves! But Eulalie could see his face--He was a pretty face, absolutely gorgeous. "What a cutie." Eulalie thought, but shakes her head. "Stop Lala, focus! Concentrate." She told herself inside her mind. To this strange, beautiful disaster of her rescuer she said, "No way. Who the hell are you?" The spandex, trenchcoat clad hero turn to her and said, "The guy that saved your life." "Um, thank you." Eulaie replied, it sounded confused like a question. She seemed interested in this guy, "So...One superhero to another, who are you?" She inquired. "Vincent. Just Vincent." said the guy. "Vincent..." Eulalie said, that name gave her chills, "Wait! Do you have a secret identity?" She asked. "Don't have one." said Vincent. "Oh crap! Why am I getting all shivering about?" She thought. "By any chance, are you aware of the circumstances?" Vincent asked. "You got some sponser?" Eulalie was perplexed, "Um, what now?" She inquired. Later, she was alone after the disbelief of finding out that she was on TV live of Champion Channel! Vincent told her the same thing that Firestarter had told Libertas/Cassandra. It was beyond her belief. "UGH! Ophelia, I am going to rio you apart, you maniac pixie dream girl with a mad crazy, fanatist complex! You totally went out of your head! I'm getting her for this. One day!" Eulalie said to herself. However she was faced with the Wendigos and fought them with help from her dark powers. She smiled at her victory, "Yes! I feel good--almost as I did before!" Eulalie said to herself. 

Just then, she heard from someone behind her. She turned and saw Vincent applauding, "Huh? Have you been there the whole time?" asked Eulalie. "Well, well. You're not so weak after all." said Vincent. Eulalie shrugged, "Just suffered a set back for a moment." She replied. "Hm. Tell me, who are you Hecate?" Vincent inquired. "Me? I'm just a naive young girl who fell from the eye of the storm, walking down the yellow brick road in order to face the Wicked Witch of the West and the flying monkeys." "Ah, Wizard of Oz huh? You look like someone trying to find her white rabbit but ends up facing the Queen's deck of cards." Vincent remarked. "OK, I don't need a pretty faced, no secret idenity man's help." said Eulalie. She went away but she was surprised attack until Vincent came to the rescue. Eulalie almost fell but Vincent swooped down and carried her in his arms like a groom carrying his bride. Eulalie looked up at him as Vincent smiled at her dazzlingly, "So, does the girl still doesn't need help from the 'pretty faced, no secret idendity man'?" He flirted. Eulalie rolled her eyes and muttered, "Oh brother!" but she moaned out loud, "OK, fine! Yes, please." Later while working; Eulalie was attacked by Wendigos and couldn't use her powers however she wouldn't not have to wait for long. The Wendigos were distracted by a sound as they went away and Eulalie went to hide. However; she heard footsteps but she was so scared as she try to stiff up. Then heard something else that was familiar to her. "Let's see what's behind curtain number three?" Vincent said, pulling back the curtain. Eulalie stumbles over, "Ack! Oh, hi there...Vi--vi--Vincent, um lovely day we're having huh?" She stuttered. Vincent looked over at her, "Looks like you're holding up pretty well." He said. 

Meanwhile; Eulalie was overwhelmed by the swarm of Wendigos and managed to fight them off with her dark powers. She lost her balance as she struggles. Thinking of her fear towards guns; Eulalie thought: "How can I face my fears when I struggle to fight? How far can I go before reaching my limit?"

Eulalie looked up at him as Vincent smiled at her dazzlingly, "So, does the girl still doesn't need help from the 'pretty faced, no secret idendity man'?" He flirted. Eulalie rolled her eyes and muttered, "Oh brother!" but she moaned out loud, "OK, fine! Yes, please." Later while working; Eulalie was attacked by Wendigos and couldn't use her powers however she wouldn't not have to wait for long. The Wendigos were distracted by a sound as they went away and Eulalie went to hide. However; she heard footsteps but she was so scared as she try to stiff up. Then heard something else that was familiar to her. "Let's see what's behind curtain number three?" Vincent said, pulling back the curtain. Eulalie stumbles over, "Ack! Oh, hi there...Vi--vi--Vincent, um lovely day we're having huh?" She stuttered. Vincent looked over at her, "Looks like you're holding up pretty well." He said. 

Eulalie looked up at him, "Yeah, and so are you." She said. "Yes." Vincent said with a nod. Realizing what she said; Eulalie was flushng red. "Oh, wait a minute! That cam out wrong, heh." She said. "You could use a break, maybe go out with me?" Vincent said. Eulalie looked at him in disbelief, "Now? Tonight? Oh no, I couldn't! I mean, I wish I could but I--" She try to explain however Vincent leaned over and kissed her cheek. Eulalie is shocked but she says, "OK, Done deal." Later on in this so-called date; Eulalie was laughing as Vincent was chuckling. "You're kidding, a scandal?" Eulalie asked. "Just a dirty rumor." assured Vincent. "Dude, you rock my socks!"  Eulalie complimented. She had to sit for a smile for a moment,  Vincent sat next to her. "So, what about you, do you have any qualms?" He asked, he was trying to seduce her and Eulalie was feeling nervous. "Qualms? No I um--" She try to say. "How about hobbies?" Vincent continued. Eulalie was lost for words for a moment, "Um, uh hobbies? No..." She replied. "No pet peeves? No favorites?" Vincent said. Eulalie swallowed, "Ulp!" then she responds with, "I like--poetry...spring! An--an--and..." Then she managed to blurt out, "And life!" She managed to stand up and hurry away from him. Disappointed; Vincent looked at her, "You are interesting, Eulalie." He remarked. Eulalie smiled back at him, "Thanks." She was about to skip away however she stumbled and fell on a bush, "Oh--! Ack!" Vincent look at her with surprise, "You OK?" Eulalie was sitting in a flower bush, "No." She said. Vincent was trying to laugh however he admits, "You look better that way." Eulalie glared at him, "Very funny." She snapped. "No, the flowers make you look prettier." Vincent said. Eulalie blushed, smiling a little and the two of them laugh. However Vincent got a communication; "Sorry to break this off sweetheart but I--" he said but he noticed that Eulalie was gone and he went away. "He's pretty interesting, I mean sure Vince is but you can't help but be nice to a guy who is tall yet dark and handsome. But he may have eerie skin color to him like he's a freak then it makes it better." Eulalie remarked. Vincent looked at Hecate, "What? You like this guy better?" He snapped. Eulalie decided to irritate him, "Sure do, I bet he has something more to him. Maybe a dark past like you do...Like parents all a dead, or maybe he has been through kamikaze...You know, take your own life. I heard that's a sin and you might end up in hell." She said. Hearing what Hecate said, Vincent glared at her and walked over but Eulalie walked back from him. "Whoa now, you're not going to torture me now are you? Slap me, grope me, hurt me? You try anything and my friends will find you! If you were a flower, you'd be a bee orchis which means 'error, industry'. Hell, I've done my homework! Heaven has no rage like a wrathful girl nor hell a fury like a harpy torned! I can be an angel, or a devil if you pissed me off! I can be your dream or I can be your nightmare!" She ranted. However Vincent looked at her in the eyes, a slight smirk on his face. Then she went over and pounced her but not hurt her. He place his hands around her waist. "Ohh--!" gasped Eulalie. Then she was against the wall as she was so closed to Vincent in this embrace, "Shit, shit! I'm this close to him! I'm blushing, right?" thought Eulalie. She gritted her teeth in humiliation: "Get...away...from...me...." Closing her eyes; Eulalie expected something vulgar yet violent however Vincent didn't do that. His warm lips were against her forehead. Eulalie's eyes snapped open as she couldn't believe it, "What?" She thought. Then she looked at Vincent, who was stepping away from her. "Why did you do that for?" asked Eulalie. "You said you were Dorothy so I decided to be The Good Wizard and give you my magical protection through a kiss." Vincent replied. Eulalie had never said she was Dorothy and that made her irritate, "You always talk in fantasy, down the rabbit hole literature?" She demanded. "Only to the strange girls." responded Vincent with a flirtatious smile. Anger filled her chest, she was mad and Eulalie pointed a finger as she said, "I'll get you for this, Vincent Muninn! One day I will!" And then, she walked away--passing a perplexed Cassandra and Firestarter. 
Later on; Eulalie was at an internet cafe with the Moneta as she researches on Vincent: He was born from an intellectual yet wealthy and kind family but they were tragically killed by a monster name Tantalus McGuffin. McGuffin messed with Vincent emotionally and mentally as he contemplated into taking his own life because he couldn't take it anymore with this pain. Thankfully, Vincent was snapped back into reality of Goram's friendship, his concern helped his partner out. Eulalie is shocked of what she discovered and decides to investigate at his place. There she is attacked by a bunch of Wendigos and knocked out. The Wendigos were about to prey upon her when they all are knocked out at once. The person responsible was Vincent! "Silly girl, do you think you could fool me that easily?" Vincent snapped. After a while; Vincent sipped red wine as he listened to softened opera singing in the background; he glance over at Eulalie, who was still unconscious, on the sofa and Vincent placed his glass down to examine her. "Cynical girls done their homework, do they...Eulalie?" Vincent said, "Black rose...dark angel...You sneaky girl. What are you really? Orphan? Runaway? A pure maiden? A rich girl in poverty? Maybe you're like me, you were shocked over the death of your parents and a monster tormented you until you couldn't take it anymore and wanted to pull the trigger on yourself." He start to trace her lips with his index finger gently, "I know you're no sponsor nor a superheroine or even born from Valhalla or just moved here. I said this before...and I'll say it again...Whatever you're hiding, I'm going to find out soon enough." Vincent continued. He was grazing her cheek with his knuckles. Then he noticed the bite mark of the Wendigo on her neck, "What is that?" He thought. Vincent glanced at her, "Well, well, well....What a tangled web you weaved. How much lies do you have for me, Hecate?" He said, "You certainly bloom haven't you my black rose?" 

The memories are done as Tsuna, Hangaku, and Kincho regained their composure, Tsuna and Hangaku don't know what the heck is going on but Kincho knew: "I know who is doing this." He claimed. "You do?" Tsuna asked. Kincho smirked, "Who else could it be that's so...foxy?" He remarked. Tsuna and Hangaku are surprised to hear this and glanced at one another with smiles, "Oh....." They said. Dressed in a  contour dress with zippers, bondage straps, belted waist, D-rings & grommets; Tamamo Mae was called in to an apartment by Great Watch. She went to the room, 620, and was shocked to see Kintaro and Sayohime with a big screen TV. She marches in and tapped her foot impatiently. "What the hell is going on here? What are you doing?" demanded Tamamo Mae. Kintaro turned to her, "Hold on a second, OK?" He said. Tamamo Mae placed her hands on her hips, "Don't you tell me to 'hold on a second', you two are up to something." She said, "So fess up!" The big TV screen turned on and Lady Kodoku appeared. Tamamo Mae couldn't believe it, "Tsunade?!" She squeaked. "Hello TM,  are you feeling any better?" Tsunade asked. Tamamo Mae turned away, "I don't want to talk about that episode, I was crazy during that time." She said. Tsunade nodded, "Very well, I heard that you want to quit. Care to explain why?" She said. Tamamo Mae held her tears back and said, "Usodori hates me, it's because of me and my drinking that's making her hate me. It's all my fault and I don't want to do this anymore. I've caused hurt to so many people, the only one I have left is my mother!" Tsunade looked at her fully in the face, "Don't you remember? Did you forget your promise? You joined Great Watch so you can protect my daughter." She reminded, "I know you've hurt her, and she's a stubborn girl but she's been through a lot you know." Tamamo Mae nodded, "I know." She said but looked up with a glare. "But let's get one thing straight--I'm not an alcoholic or anyhting because that's just an excuse. I drink responsibly, I got no drinking problem. I just drink because of the stress and anxiety. I made some horrendous mistakes that I'm not proud of but I won't be labeled nor judged." Tsuanade held her hands up, "I'm not saying you are but I'm worried about you. Usodori is worried about you, everyone is worried about you." She said. Tamamo Mae made a 'tch' sound, "I don't need any help, OK? I don't need anyone to say I'm a binge drinker! I'm lush, yes. I'm a lush, stressful young bum." She claimed. 

Tsunade knew something was off but changed the subject and begin to talk to them about how there seemed to be something of a memory implantment of Cassandra's memories, her memories of how she met Jack, and Eulalie's memories have been copied and implanted into the members of Great Watch but she isn't sure who it is. Tamamo Mae kept a straight face, though it was her. Once the talk was over; Tamamo Mae was about to leave and go home. But Tsunade call her name again, "Hold on, Tamamo Mae. Before you go, I like to speak with you in private." She said. Kintaro and Sayohime knew as they left the apartment. Tamamo Mae was annoyed, "Now what?" She asked in an annoyed voice. "I know you said you have tained everybody and you're not going to like this but these two would like to talk to you." Tsunade said, gesturing who was standing there. Tamamo Mae gasped, "Oh my...You two? It--it can't be!" She rasped. Now on the screen was Oinari and Konohana. Tamamo Mae was motionlessly shocked, Konohana spoke up: "Hi TM." Snapping out of it, Tamamo Mae looked dull as she said, "Sugar Blossom...Mr. Brooding Bad Boy, so it's you two huh." Oinari nodded, "How are you?" He asked. Tamamo Mae shrugged, "Oh, peachy keen. Just fine and dan-dy." She said with emphasis. But then she looked at the two of them, "How about you? You look better." Tamamo Mae remarked. Konohana beamed, "Yeah, no longer holding anything back in myself." She said. Tamamo Mae pursed her lips and responds with only, "I see." It was quiet. Too quiet. And awkward however Oinari spoke up: "So, TM, can we ask you something?"  Tamamo Mae looked at him, "What?" She asked. Konohana and Oinari glance at one another, "Um...All these killings...We're these people...Did they hurt you and your mother?" Konohana asked. Tamamo Mae was stunt, "Huh?" was all she could say. Oinari looked nervous, "I mean, why would you be doing this." He remarked. Tamamo Mae could hear heart pumping in her chest. "Can you excuse me for a moment?" She asked and came by with a sake bottle and a cup. She poured herself one and gulped it down from the cup. "Of course, it's all the price of revenge. You got a problem?" She asked. "Um...I don't want to waste your...." Konohana said. But the drunk vixen lashed back, "You know, you wanna pretend that me trying to kill both of you never happened; that's fine." Oinari looked concerned by seeing this. "We do but we're not here to...." Konohana said. 

"DON'T PRETEND TO BE MY FRIEND, YOU HATE ME? YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO HATE ME YOU IDIOTS!!!" Tamamo Mae screamed, throwing the cup and then the sake bottle. Oinari and Konohana were shocked, "Calm down!" Oinari said. "NO, THIS IS OVER!!!! GOODBYE!!!!" Tamamo Mae cried, shutting off the TV and left the flat. She walked out, pass Oinari and Konohana, and then she went home to sleep. She had a dream that she was in satin dress with a flocked tattoo print, bow accents and waistband tie with a back zipper. Later; Tamamo Mae is inside her home wearing a comfy sweater draped over one shoulder. She is brooding about either Oinari or Konohana while wandering morosely around her apartment. She is also seen sitting in the bathtub. She has a variety of dreams where she wakes up on an abandoned desert, surrounded by trash and debris, and wearing dark makeup. In the next dream sequence; Tamamo Mae going into her garage and throwing a sheet off her piano. She starts playing and the song begins, and while she's playing, the piano starts moving outside near parades downtown, joggers out on the road, and through the beach. The third dream shows Tamamo Mae of fairytales: A girl letting her hair out from a window in an apartment building, a man with butterfly wings, giant mushrooms, a giant spider moving and spinning a web at the same time, a man playing fetch with a wolf in Central Park, a candy covered apartment, a policeman riding a unicorn, and moving chess pieces.Tamamo Mae is applying red lipstick, in a car mirror. She leaves the car and Tamamo Mae approaches a cracked mirror. After hearing a noise behind her, she looks over her shoulder as her reflection looks to her as well. TM is dragged into the mirror. In the next sequence is Tamamo Mae being dragged by soldiers up the stairs of a mansion. She then is forced to sit at a dining table with other women whose faces are half-covered with masks. She is served a cooked heart while the other women eat cupcakes with pills on them instead of sprinkles. They are watched by soldiers who stand on the floor above them. 

Then Tamamo Mae climbs up onto the table causing the soldiers to run down to her and grab her off the table. The two soldiers are escorting Tamamo Mae  down the steps where her head is forced down and an executioner decapitates her with an axe. But it was all an illusion as Tamamo Mae is leaning on a closed door, asleep. She becomes different after one dream that strucks out: She had a dream that she met with a couple who's baby has a contagious illness and the couple give Tamamo Mae protective gear so she doesn't get sick or if she does, the result will be epidemic. Tamamo Mae begin to talk to herself once again: "I feel as if I lost in my mind. This person of my affection does not notice me. Casting away all hope. I still hopes that I will grab it but he knows that my heart is distant from his. I'm thinking about him, I feel left empty because he left me once.  I am hallucinating because I have received some love from him in a while. It feels like a moonsoon and I am left to dry. It feels like a year since I had seen him even though it has probably in reality only been a week or so. I'm pretty dramatic. I wish you would hurry up, because I'm drying up. However; The eye of the storm is the section that’s most calm while the circling winds around it are destructive and dangerous. Our relationship can be rough, having each other is what really matters, even if we are trying to hide something. I'm better when I'm with him, he brings out the best in not only me but everyone around us. We can finally be together because we want the same thing. You're the only one, and I am entirely commuted to you and only you. We are the same force I mean that they will act together and we are stronger that way. We run the same course, we’re on the same page, that we’re going down the same path. Let's escape from the world and be happy alone knowing that the life will guide us where we need to go." Inside Tamamo Mae's apartment; a messy hair, dark circled eyes, and chapped lips of Usodori came inside and found the alcoholic bevarages, took all the bottles of sake and limoncello, she took the bottles and took them all to a secure location. 

While at the secure backyard; Usodori threw a bottle up and swing it with a bat. She smashed them all and broke them all until there was nothing left. She panted and panted, she then begin to sob heavily. Usodori managed to calm down and was upset, she trudged in as she went into her room. "Damn to hell, if she gets mad at me; I don't care." She thought. Moments later; Usodori was reading but then, someone slamed the door and coming up the stairs, towards her room. And opened the door without knocking. Tamamo Mae looked very angry, Usodori looked calm. "What?" She asked. "Uh, what happened to my bottles?" snapped Tamamo Mae. "I don't know." lied Usodori, placing her book down and looked away. "Don't you look away from me." Tamamo Mae spat, "You really think you're gonna go and take all my bottles? Then you got another thing coming you li'l brat! How you managed in one fell swoop to make a mockery of the laws of physics is beyond me but you are a one hell out of a liar!" Usodori turned back to her, fed up with her and sat up before getting up on her feet: "All right so shoot me I did! I swung the bottle with a bat and smashed them all! That's right, I did it and I'll do it again you bum! You binge drinker! Alcoholic!" She said right back. "I! AM! NOT! AN ALCOHOLIC!!!!" Tamamo Mae screamed. "You are, you can deny it all you won't and you are the biggest liar than me!" Usodori countered back. "Oh, you think I'm an alcoholic? You are a damned, depressed, bubbly and ditzy jerk!" Tamamo Mae argued. "You drink and drink, you become a different person, insult others--such as me--and it sucks to be you! You drink your sorrows and anxiety is because of the trauma in your memories coming back to you." Usodori ranted angrily, "You don't want to think about Onibaba, or should  I say, Okiku Samon, Osode Iemon, and her friggin' husband Tamiya!!!!! You hate them because of what they did to you! Your mom! Me! My mother! Hikoboshi and Orihime!" Tamamo Mae shouted back: "DO NOT MENTION THEM!!!!" "You missed them both, I know you do! I understand, you loved them but you couldn't have them both! So, you are obsessed with Konohana and Oinari so you don't have to lose the loves of your lives again! Like it happened once and you're afraid it'll happen again!" Usodori cried. "I HATE YOU!!!! HATE YOU SO MUCH!!!" Tamamo Mae shouted. Usodori screamed back, "THEN GET OUT OF MY ROOM YOU DRUNKARD!!!!!" Tamamo Mae turned away and slammed the door. Usodori looked annoyed and turn back to her book but she felt tears welled in her eyes.
