"Emi. I love Hisao."
It's a simple statement that conveys your message well enough. You think.
Slowly, too slowly, Emi turns to you with wide eyes and her mouth hanging slightly open.
You say nothing, letting her process this and hoping she doesn't get angry.
...
You're trembling slightly.
It's genuinely amazing how disquieting her silence is.
Finally, she purses her lips a little and quietly responds. "Since when?"
Her question is a logical one, but it's surprisingly difficult to answer.
When... Did it happen? When did you realize it? When was it that you fell in love with Hisao?
At first, you just liked being around him.
He was nice to you. He understood you.
That feeling grew more and more. You started craving it.
Then he was in your thoughts... So often...
As you think it over, Emi stands rigid, staring at you.
You take a breath and answer...

[] I don't know.
[] When we first met.
[] What... is "love" to you?
>>
>>21302711
[X] I don't know.
>>
>>21302711
[x] What... is "love" to you?

Oh boy oh boy oh boy it's KY time.

This one seems least offensive, since I don't know will probably make her angry that we can say we love Hisao without knowing when we fell in love, and since we met just seems to be us lying to our best friend for a very long time.
>>
[] When we first met.
We have to let her know we had no choice in the matter.

Also, should we Save too? I know we remembered to save before we told Emi we loved Hisao.

It might be better to hold off until we either fight or arrange for a fight. With how bad things may go, as unfortunate as it is, it could be necessary to go back to the save and backstab Emi flat-out instead.

Eventually, she will have to die. There' is no second place in this route.
Remember, Hanako was yandere for Lilly in the last route, not Hisao.

We should have stabbed Emi when we had the chance.

>>21302922

Should have killed her with the same heirloom then.
>>
>>21302927

I'm predicting that we still have a sanity counter, but it's invisible now. And instead of dying flat-out, the lower our sanity gets, the more likely we're going to have hallucinations and delusions that will be detrimental to our goals and health.

After all, just walking to Emi's left us with the desire to murder random people and being disgusted and enthralled at the same time. Who knows how bad these sort of thoughts will get when we go to a murdertorture carnivale and fight a crazy blind woman?
>>
[x] I don't know.
>>
>>21302980

Hey, I did ask if we should save or not, so we could go back to that option. And we'll probably still kill her, just the difference between being needlessly bitchy and having an honorable and badass duel that we could practice the seven-point star with.
>>
>>21302992

I think our sanity is now depends on how long and how fare are we staying away from Hisao. Only his presence seems to be strong enough to stop the insanity. Lack of sanity counter opens up more spellcasting though, so we have more raw might at our side now. Still not enough to match Lilly though, she has experience, we only have potential.

"What..." You ask. "Is... 'love' to you?"
Emi makes a motion as if to say something but then falls silent as she thinks about your question.
It's not as simple an inquiry as one might think at first.
"I don't know..." She says. "He's just... so nice to me... He talks to me... It makes me happy to be around him."
"It's the same for me."
Your legless friend looks at you with a rather un-Emi-like visage that's between analytic and pensive.
"Seeing him happy makes me happy." You finally give voice to your thoughts. "I... want to see more of that. I want to be with him."
At your words, her head droops downwards.

"You really love Hisao?" She asks, her bangs casting her eyes in shadow.
You nod, not knowing if there even is a 'right' way to vocalize an answer.
Silence descends upon Emi's room.
This impasse stretches for an eternity: Seconds seem like years, shakes become like lustrums, and if you mix vanilla coke with Jack Daniels it makes a much easier highball than grapefruit juice does.
Finally, your legless companion breaks the deadlock. "Love... Has to go both ways... Right?"
As far as you understand, that's the ideal. You nod.
Emi lifts her gaze to meet yours again and takes a few steps towards you.
"Then... Whichever one of us Hisao picks will be real love, right?"
"Bacon-girl said something similar and we know how that worked out."
Your twintailed friend giggles dryly. "Yeah. If you were anyone else I'd be planning to shoot you in the back first chance I got. But..." She comes to a halt just before you. "Somehow... if 'you' had to be the one to bring Hisao happiness... instead of me... I'd be ok with that."
A conflicted smile coming onto her face, she runs a hand over your hair. "Then... Can we let Hisao choose... Which of us will bring him happiness?"
Emi's words echo through you.
Whichever of you Hisao picks...
Will that be real love?

I have vocalized many, MANY times the numerous reasons to kill this traitor. This useless parasite on our quest for love.

I do not care if you all are so hopeless as to be completely unable to find magic swords appropriate to be wielded by the arm-less on your own. She has been NOTHING but dead weight and a bullseye on our back since the start and she LET HANAKO MURDER US THE FIRST TIME.

"Ok." You answer.
Emi breathes a satisfied sigh before smiling softly and embracing you.
It'd be more comfortable if she had more chest. But it's still nice.
The atmosphere lightens as you make this pact.
After a bit, she releases you, regaining her trademark state of mirth. "Ok then. Game plan for tomorrow: I'll be getting us both up bright and early so we can head over to Hisao's room-"
"Hisao'll be heading here in the morning to pick us up." You interject.
"Omigosh!" Emi exclaims before narrowing her eyes at you."Were you gonna tell me about that?"
"Isn't that what I'm doing right now?"
You cow your head a bit as she looks you over. After a minute, she giggles and lapses back into a smile.
"Ok! We really need extra time, then."
"Time for what?"
"So we can dress for the festival." She clutches her fists to her chest with a grin. "I picked out a yukata that I think'll look sooooooo cute on you!"
Blinking slowly, your process your twintailed friend's words.
You're grateful that Emi thought this far ahead. You had totally forgotten this was gonna be a dress-up affair.
Still, that does give you some concern over what sort of attire she picked out.

>>21303416
I don't know what system Akira used, but if we were two points poor on Emi and we spent all that time trying to keep her on our side, I can only imagine we only have a little window of wiggle room for Hisao. If there's a 'point check' between us and Emi, I don't think we may win. Even if we do, Emi could still kill us and murder Hisao over being rejected.

You shrug. "What exactly are you gonna be dressing me in?"
Emi giggles. "Hehe! Just til tomorrow. I know you'll love it!"
You hum in thought.
Well... She has done a pretty good job of dressing you until now...
"Hm? "Apparently some of your concerned showed, as Emi tilts her head a bit, scrunching her mouth in thought as she looks at your face.
"Oh, don't worry - it's perfectly combat-ready and everything. Got you lots of extra holsters for your scimitar and black keys and the like."
She guessed wrong. But that was also a legitimate concern.
Her warming smile takes on a menacing tone. "After all, we still need to do something about Lilly, right?"
You nod, forgetting your worries as you remember the task at hand (or foot).
Lilly...
She does not deserve Hisao.
He will end up with either you or Emi. That is the decree of Team Limbless.
"Alright then." Emi concludes. "Let's try to get some rest."
"Ok."
Filled with thoughts of tomorrow, you and Emi munch something tasteless together and flop down onto her bed as darkness falls.
With Hisao in your mind and Emi at your side, you drift off into a peaceful slumber.

[Meanwhile]

The darkened Yamaku grounds are abuzz with activity as the mongrel subjects of the Queen of Scotland scurry about, setting up attractions and events.
At the center of a ritual circle, a golden figure contrasting sharply with the darkness stands with her eyes lightly closed in concentration.
Finally, her sightless blue gaze flutters open and an array of magickal runes alight at her feet.
Tier Pargon Pargon Aretak Pargon Pargon Mantorok Pargon Pargon.
Lilly remains composed and aloof as her spell shatters the veil of reality and dissipates to reveal a creature; A powerfully-built humanoid figure wearing a long skirt of human skin and a massive blackened pyramid-shaped helmet.
It groans in agony as it shifts its overburdened neck in recognition of its new summoner.
"My, my. I'm afraid you are not free to leave this plane until you complete a task for me..."
A metal shrieking echoes through the air as the Witch-Queen softly giggles.
Having finished her summoning, Lilly turns and walks over to the now-mostly-erected Carnival grounds in search of Akira, bearing a serene smile.

Amidst the bustle, Akira saunters though the carnival whistling a light tune as she coordinates the setup.
"Damn..." A voice by the music stand catches her attention.
She walks over to the organist - a skinny redhead dressed in purple. "What seems to be the trouble?"
He looks up. "I'm trying to make that living organ I mentioned. But it's not working..." He indicates the vivisected body hooked up to the keyboard."No matter what I try, they always scream with a different pitch." He looks down with a pouting face.
"Oh, that." She replies with an easy smirk before walking over to the crucified victim. "The trick with living instruments is that emotional reactions are never quite the same. Even with things like pain."
Flicking out a runed knife, she starts fiddling with the victim and the wires.
"So what you have to do..." She muses as she cuts out the phrenic nerve and starts splitting it. "Is hook your instrument up to the victim's lung nerves..."

"Action potentials are all-or-none." Akira happily explains as she fiddles about with her ritual knife. "They either happen the same way or don't happen at all."
Finishing, she steps away and grins. "That way, you get the same kind of scream for every key."
The blonde seats herself and plays out the opening to Bach's First in a harmony of screaming.
Satisfied, she turns around with a smile. "See?"
Shaking with excitement, the redhead drops his music book on the floor. "COOOOL!!! You're so cool! You're awesome!"
A carefree giggle emanates from behind him as Lilly emerges from the shadows. "My, my. Isn't she just?"

Satisfied with the state of things here, Akira locks arms with her sister, who leans up against her slightly.
The two of them stroll through the Carnival in the early morning din.
"Everything's set up on your end?"
"That it is."
"D'aawww." Akira emotes, running her free hand over Lilly's hair. "My cute little sister's finally getting a boyfriend..."
The wavy-haired girl doesn't respond to this. Akira blinks once confusedly, then shrugs and continues leading her through the Tanabata grounds as the finishing touches are applied.
"Well, it's a pity about Hanako." The suited girl muses aloud. "I even stocked the human chess game with extra black pieces."
"You're talking about that slaving raid you led into Nigeria the other day?"
"Yup. But that's ok. More bodies are never a bad thing."

The sky begins to grow a lighter tint as the two blondes converse. After a bit, Akira notices and giggles.
"Hehe. Looks like it's time." She says as she moves to break off.
As she pivots, though, Lilly tugs on her arm.
"Hm?"

"Rin?" You drift back into the light as Emi shakes your shoulders.
You smile. "M'up."
Emi giggles as your pull yourself upwards. "Alright, now team limbless has a party to dress for!"
The garb your legless friends has selected for you is a lightweight cotton yukata of a violet shade embroidered with red silk flowers.
Your baggy sleeves are flared and trail off you as if the wings of a cape. It looks like the gown of a regal sorceress in ages past.
With a small smile, you turn to Emi. "Thanks for picking out a good one for me."
She squirms about a little, looking sheepish. "Aw. Shucks, Rin. I'm blushing."
Hers is a powder-blue one with a swirling pink pattern. You have to admit, it's nice.
"Hehe! Glad we both look our best now!" Emi's signature competitive gleam lights up in her eyes. "Now let's get the functional aspect down."
Within your loosely fitted clothing you and Emi both stock a small arsenal of black keys, grenades, bullets, guns and the like.
Just as you finish, you hear a knock on the door.
"Emi? Rin? You in there?"
"Yup yup!"
"Hisao..."
You both reply in unison as you move to let him in.

Emi yanks the door open and you flop up against Hisao in a makeshift embrace before you've even had a clear look at him.
You've long since memorized what that voice sounds like.
"Good morning Hisao."
"Morning, Rin." He replies, patting your head.
"Mornin!" Emi happily peaks. "Wow! You dressed up, too!"
Hm?
Pulling back, you find Hisao now wearing a riot vest to protect his heart and carrying a massive magnum revolver in a thigh holster.

You shrug.
Given what you know of Akira, this is a fairly logical choice of attire for an event she's planned.
"So? Ready to head out?"
"My, my. That we are, Rin."
You can feel Emi stiffen at your side in response to this voice and mechanically turn your head to look down the hallway.
A few paces to the side of Hisao stands a golden-haired girl in a snow-white yukata.
"My, my, I bumped into Hisao while he was on his way here and thought it might be nice to enjoy the festival together." Lilly says with a smile as she puts a hand to her cheek.
He shrugs. "It sounded good to me. Ready?"
It... can't be helped.

The unwelcome truce settling in over you all, your band makes it way outside down to the carnival grounds.
Arriving, you find the celebration to already be quite bustling.
It's a diverse affair.
The Yamaku denizens have dressed up in everything ranging from yukata to riot gear to shredded Disneyland outfits.
Everyone happily mulls about armed with scimitars, halberds, magnums, jackknives, claymores, tomahawks, machine guns, chainsaws, and other assorted weaponry.
Many survivors of your riot are also wearing their personal trophies, such as ear-necklaces and handbags made from human skin.
Between yourself and Akira, Yamaku seems at least a little different from at the start of the term.
At least marginally intoxicated, Saki walks by with Natsume, happily leaning up against her as she cuddles a stuffed zombie to her chest.
Eh, maybe you're imagining it.
You shrug.

He's not smalltime. The premise is that characters will lose their "sanity" over time. If Hisao's surroundings didn't descend into madness he would have stayed relatively sane. At this point pretty much everyone is screwed in the head.

As you arrive, you look around, espying all manner of delightful minigames to try out and several different rides such as Ferris wheels constructed from human bones.
Suddenly, the bell tower chimes and a series of torches ringing the outdoor stage alight.
A skinny blonde in a pinstriped suit happily walks out to address the crowd.
"Welcome, ladies and gents! I present to you Akira's Carnival of Sin!"
A light round of applause goes out as a trio of students frantically cooperate to stab an attacking demon to death.
Apparantly not having rehersed this, she scratches her head a bit before laughing at herself. "I'm not really the one for speeches, actually, so I'll make this quick. Rules are as follows: If you die, you lose. All done."
With that, she takes another drink from her hip-flask and turns about.
"How do we win?" One person shouts out.
Akira twirls around and impales him with a thrown spear.
"Alright, kiddies! Now go and have fun!"
The skinny blonde merrily skips off the stage.
Emi and Lilly both giggle while Hisao looks around for a moment before turning to you."Hm. Could be fun."

"Anime Jack Skellington is a bitch." You observe.
Lilly makes a surprisingly threatening hissing sound at you while Hisao chuckles a bit. "Oh now, Rin. That's not nice."
You shrug and indicate a student frantically running away from a magickal booby-trap with one of your arm stubs. "What part of this is 'nice'?"

"Sounds good to me." You emote.
"As you say, Rin." Lilly agrees, leaning up against Hisao's arm.
Emi looks around. "Hm... I'd prefer something a little more physical..."
"We've got plenty of time." He says. "Besides, if you played against me, I'd never win."
Emi casts her Hurt-Puppy Face of +2 Charm at Hisao.
"Ok!" He exclaims, scratching his head. "You can pick the next one, alright? Alright?!"
She hums to herself, though you know that means she's more or less already acquiesced.
"Ok, then!" She giggles, eliciting a relieved smile from Hisao. "I'll hold you to that!"
You head over to the Speed-Execution stage. It's a simple game based around how many prisoners you can execute with a .22 pistol in a certain time.
"Any of you wanna play?" He asks as he signs in.
"I'm content to just observe." Lilly replies with a smile.
You look down at your loosely hanging sleeves and shrug.
"We'll cheer for you!" Emi happily exclaims, pushing him up. "Go Hisao! Go!"
Finding it impossible to argue with Emi, Hisao clamors up and begins dealing headshot after headshot, occasionally swapping to a new pistol instead of taking the time to reload his current one.
"Come on, Hisao! Work it! Go!" Emi cheers, happily jumping up and down.
You and Lilly are a bit less vocal, but both of you keep your attention rigidly fixed on him as the counter grinds down.

You all realize the boy Lilly is talking about isn't Hisao. She is absolutely no threat to this limb-less threesome.

Except for if Hisao confesses to her and she rejects him and he spaghettis everywhere.

Might not be Hisao. But she is quite possibly the greatest threat right now. In one of the bad ends she killed Rin just because she intruded upon her, if memory serves. She has absolutely no regard for lives of others.

DING.
The carnival bell heralds the end of the contest.
Hisao grimaces and sticks his tongue out as he shakes off his wrists.
Suddenly, an alarm flares up.
"High score!" The booth operator declares.
Brightly colored lights flash up as a victory theme plays.
"Alright! Hisao!" Emi tears a run in the ground with one of her legblades as she leaps up.
"Well done..." Lilly purrs.
"I won't clap, but know that I'm happy for you." You call out as Hisao finishes wiping away the brain matter and skull fragments.
He winks at you.
As a prize, he wins a large stuffed Shoggoth.
Then, he suddenly freezes as he comes down from the stage clutching the large plush doll, as he looks between the three of you.

You cast a longing glance at the doll alongside Emi.
Lilly is... Still wearing her calm smile.
It's irksome how unbothered she is by everyt-
Suddenly, Hisao flops the doll over your head. "Here."
He casts a quick look at Emi. "You've already got a big heap of dolls. Does Rin have any?"
"Hmph." She pouts.
Hisao, however, is grasped about the arm by Lilly before it hits him.
"We'll just have to win you something else, shan't we?"
Normally, Lilly clinging to Hisao would anger you, but you're still flustered.
He... Gave you the doll...
Closing your eyes, you flop it onto the ground as rub your cheek against it.
It's soft...
But it doesn't smell like Hisao yet... You'll have to change that later.
Wait, how did Hisao know what was in Emi's roo-
DING.
The PA system, which is really a series of severed heads mounted to telephone poles, spring to life and interrupts your thoughts.
"General alert, friends. Both the Decapitating Contest and Hot Potato-Masher games are up and running!"
Hisao casts gestures to your legless friend. "Your call. Either of those sound fun?"
"Both!" Emi exclaims, pridefully puffing out her modest chest as she works herself into her competitive mode. "Which do you wanna see?"
Hisao shrugs. "Doesn't matter to me."
Lilly hums before gesturing to you... Whatever that means.
You...

You shrug.
"Totally your call, Emi." Hisao declares after getting a lack of input from both you and Lilly.
"Blegh... I was hoping someone'd make the choice easier." Emi whimpers before bounding back into a smile. "Ok, then! Hot Potato-Masher it is!"
"My, my. Fine choice, Emi." Lilly emotes, nuzzling up against Hisao.
You leave your Shoggoth in the care of the boothkeeper to pick up later.
It'll make a fine memento of Hisao after Lilly's been dealt with.
To make matters even better, Hisao takes your sleeve with his free hand.
It's nice when he leads you...
Emi heads the party, of course, and the four of you head over to the booth, stopping briefly to kill a swarm of zombies after Hisao accidentally stumbles over a tripwire.
"Sor-"
"What have I told you about apologizing, Hisao?" Lilly cuts him off with a pouting expression as she slices apart one of the attacking corpses.
Arriving, you find it's another game that you need hands to play.
Once again, you take to the sidelines, though this time Hisao is with you...
It needn't be said how nice a day this is turning out to be...
You and Lilly both press up against Hisao's sides as Emi steps down into the arena.

This delightful challenge is a four-player game. Standing in the corners of a square arena, a live potato-masher grenade is tossed in with them and they all take turns hurling it back and forth at each other.
Obviously, when it goes off the person holding it dies and therefore loses according to the rules set forth by Akira.
Emi's arms move in a blurr of speed as she hurls the hot explosive away from her almost as soon as it contacts her body.
BANG.
The first student dies and another live grenade is tossed in.
"Emi is really something..." Hisao emotes as he breathlessly watches the spectacle.
"Did you know that the first potato masher grenades used porcelain balls on the end of the pull-chord?" Lilly muses.
"What is it with you and porcelain?" He joking asks her, turning his head with a wry grin.
"Family secret." She replies with a giggle.
BANG.
The second victim goes. Now it's just Emi and the other one.

A few more seconds and Emi's last opponent is splattered onto the wall.
A cheer goes through the crowd as she whirls about, reveling in the celebration of her victory.
Hisao frees himself from both you and Lilly as he happily skips back and hugs him. "Hehe! Did you like the show?"
He pats her head. "Of course! You know you always put on the best!"
... It's Emi so you're not 'that' angry, but head-patting still feels like it's reserved for you. Emi has hands. Do something with them. Actually, no. Don't do anything with those, either.
After a minute, Hisao finally pries your legless friend off of him and comes back to you and Lilly.
"Alright, it's your turn, Rin." He puts his hand on your shoulder. "What game?"

"I'll try the decapitating contest." You decide after mulling it over for a while.
Horrific screams of the dying have become the background music for the carnival as you make your way through the attractions.
Wearing full combat gear, Rika barrels past your group and falls against a booth clutching her chest as she sprays assault rounds from a CR-21 at a horde of monsters closing in on her.
You shrug.
Arriving at the decapitating contest, you find it's a similar event as speed-executions, except that you're allowed to use your own weapons.
Just execute as many as you can before time runs out.
"Come on, Rin!" Hisao cheers from the stands as you take position.
Eager to impress, you draw your crystal scimitar.

Saki and Rika were characters announced to have extra routes by the devs, as an April Fool's joke. They've both been picked up by the community and have small followings by now though, and both have pseudo-routes written for them. Only Rika's is complete though, and Saki's is dead in the water.

A short time later, you proudly step off the stage.
"Dammit, Rin. You are amazing with that thing." Hisao congratulates you as he picks up a towel and starts cleaning the blood off you.
Emi freezes dead, holding a towel of her own. Maybe she wasn't expecting help, but you prefer it this way.
You smile. "I've had a lot of practice lately."
Easily outclassing the previous high score twofold, the booth operator carves out your name as the new high score holder.
The applause you receive is nice, but of course, Hisao's is the only one that matter to you.
Once he's finished cleaning you off, he breathes a satisfied exhale. "Come on, let's go get some lunch, then we'll keep playing."
"Capital, idea, Hisao." The Golden Queen agrees.
"It's your call, next, Lilly."

Her uniform now drapes off of her starved frame.
But she's not malnourished... No... She's found a new source of nourishment.
Her drills glisten with malevolent pink energy as they finish consuming her soul.
"Oh... Wow, Shicchan... That was delicious.... You were ri~ight..."
She picks up her discarded bag.
"I'm so sorry I dropped you... Please... Don't be mad..."
Her vacant, soulless gaze drifts over the carnival, part of which has now caught fire.

"This is nice... Isn't it?" She asks you.
You return a small grin. "I wouldn't say it's the sort of thing to do every day but every day things to be done are seldom done for the sake of doing... Probably. Yes."
Hisao suddenly hurdles into view with a skinless lion creature on his heels.
"Ah!!!! RINRINRINRINRINRIN!!!"
You lunge forward and skewer the monster through its skull with your scimitar.
Hisao tosses his arms behind his head, catching his breath. "Thanks."
The sight of his smile warms your heart.
Emi giggles. "See? That's why you need to stay in shape, Hisao. You never know when you'll have to flee from Pazuzu Demons."
He shoots her a thumbs-up before turning to Lilly.
"Alright. Your call. What do you feel like doing?"

The carnival lanes are now strewn with a body parts, both human and monster alike.
There's a few graduates of Akira's class on this path, though, so it's mostly monster-gore here.
Mutou walks by your group, wreaking of alcohol and wearing a necklace of shrunken heads.
"Suuuuuuuuuup?" He slurs, shooting Hisao a thumbs-up.
Hisao merely waves.
Arriving at the Ferris-Wheel, the four of you clamor in.
You're not sure if it was meant to hold four people, but the hell you're gonna be letting Lilly ride alone with Hisao.
Thankfully, the stream of knowledge from the Tome of Eternal Darkness assures you that you're in no danger from this and the ride starts up without a hitch.
Less fortunately, Lilly and Hisao sit side by side, with Hisao holding one of her hands.
You and Emi sit next to each other, both tensed and wishing you could strike.
A spiky-haired blonde and a dainty brunette in pink ride together just beneath you.
"Cloud... I'm searching for you..."
Akira turns from looking out the window with a perturbed expression."Um... I think you got the wrong blonde, lad-"
A magical spear crashes through the car ceiling and skewers the strange girl. Closer inspection reveals it to be a navigational cane.
"My, my. Oops. My hand must have slipped." Lilly muses with a carefree giggle as her sister tosses it back up to her.

We must sabotage the ride in a way that leaves hisao safe and absolves us of all suspicion

The ride continues in relative silence as you take it the sight of the carnival.
"Really..." Hisao breathlessly muses as he stares out the window. "Thank you."
He never says more than that, not addressing it to anyone in particular.
You, Emi, and Lilly all flush, though, putting your own spin on the comment's addressee.
After a bit, you descend back to terra firma and step out.
Lilly continues clutching Hisao's hand while both you and Emi file out behind them.
Tossing a glance to Emi, you quicken your pace a bit as you prepare to 'accidentally' stumble between them.
!!!
Suddenly, the stands to your right explode.
Emi barely has time to lunge to the side while you throw yourself back.
Amidst a field of floating debris, a very deranged-looking girl comes into view.
"Wa~WAHA~HA!!"

Her face pale and her eyes ringed from sleepless nights, Misha turns a vacant gaze to Emi.
A soulless grin lights up on her face.
Her unholy drills contort themselves around her fists, glistening with evil pink energy and razor-bladed shards of crystalline glitter.
"My, my." The tall girl next to Hisao purrs. "Right on time, Misha."
At if waiting for such an opportunity, Lilly lightly snaps her arm up and grips Hisao's face.
?!?
In the next instant, he falls limp into her arms.
"Hisao?!"
As you lunge toward him, your vision turning red from anger, suddenly a massive blade hurdles into your field of vision.
Alerted a split second beforehand by the Tome, you kick off the ground to the side and slide out of the way as the blade passes close enough by your face to slice a bit of your bangs.
'It's of no import.' You decide as you skid to a halt, registering this new enemy.
You were gonna get a haircut later anyways.
What matters right now is Hisao.

A human-shaped monster stands between you and your love, gripping a massive sword easily twice its own length.
Forced into reality by the power of the Golden Queen, it emits an echoing cry beneath a massive pyramidal helmet.
"Em-
"WA~HA~HA!!!" An explosion rears off to your side as Emi narrowly avoids another of Misha's devastating attacks.
She's in no position to help you right now.
Lilly simply giggles.
With Hisao draped over her arm, she turns and begins walking away at a casual pace while her summoned demon emits a hollow shriek and lurches towards you.

Calling your magickal energy to bear, your evil book registers the frenzied strikes just in time for you to evade them.
Damn... This is not the time...
Taking a gamble, you press in instead of backing away and weave through the attacks to carve its chest open with your scimitar.
It doesn't even seem to notice.
Another chaotic strike nearly cleaves you in half as you're forced to lunge away.
Like water returning to a still state, the beast's wound vanishes.
It begins shuffling towards you, dragging its weapon along the ground as it prepares for another flurry of attacks.
As the unholy beast bars your path as the Queen of Scotland vanishes from sight.
Gnashing your teeth, you cast a glare at the disappearing goldenrod head.
Lilly...
Hisao...
