Chapter 64

Kusa is just doing her everyday chores and that is basking in the sun

Kusa: I wish they are with me all the time... I need someone to hug too

Kusa: *sigh* what am I thinking, this isn't the time I will be willful I will try to amuse myself!

Kusa stands up and pumps her hand

The rustling of leaves is very peaceful and serene

Kusa: I don't know where to start...

Kusa: the phone is useless unless I go outside

Kusa: why didn't have an offline game...

Kusa: I guess I will stroll for today aswell~

Kusa started walking when suddenly a vine grabs her hand

Kusa: what's wrong?

Kusa: balls have come inside of Gensokyo?

Kusa: capture every single one of them and gather them here

The vine unties itself and goes back towards the ground

Kusa: today may not be boring after all

Kusa stands there in an open space waiting for the Vines to retrieve the items

Kusa: why does it take so long?

Kusa started to make a table and two chairs including the table set

When Yukari appears with foods in hand

Kusa: so?

Yukari: my~ let's talk for a bit...

--------------------------------------------------------------

Kusa: still letting the inhabitants of Gensokyo go outside is kind of...

Yukari: you should know that nothing really bad happened

Kusa: of course but still I think I can't let this incident go rampant...

Yukari: what can I say just let it slide this time

Kusa: fine... since you asked me I won't interfere much, but also the plants can't get the orbs anyway because people are already holding them

Yukari: I'm glad you are a good listener-

Kusa: But! I will intrude on your home because too many noises will drive me insane

Yukari: okay

--------------------------------------------------------------

Kusa is playing with Chen In the backyard of Yukari's House

While Yukari and Ran are inside of the house observing the events of the incident

Yukari: it seemed Reimu, Mokou, and Marisa is frantically finding Kusa

Yukari: that they accidentally gathered all the occult balls and they fought Sumireko

Yukari: and it seemed that they will not stop until they searched the whole place to find Kusa

Yukari: It's a bummer that even though Kusa isn't participating her ripples already affected the whole future that I see...

Yukari: since my fun is already disturbed I should have fun fighting three of them

Ran: don't tell me you are going to rile them up...

Yukari smiled happily

Ran: It seemed I guess it right...

--------------------------------------------------------------

Yukari: Kusa can you come with me for a minute

Kusa: eh? Okay...

Chen: can I join?

Yukari: you can't but Ran will play with you instead

Chen: Ran?!

Ran: let's go, Chen

Chen: yey!

------

Kusa: so where are we going?

Yukari and Kusa are walking towards the entrance of the village

Yukari: over there

Yukari pointing the tree

Kusa: Hmm?

Kusa: what's special about that tree?

Yukari: it's a surprise

Kusa: okay?

They arrived at the tree and kusa started leaning on the tree and looked up

Kusa: sometimes looking underneath the tree is more beautiful than looking at the upper side of the tree

Yukari: I want to see too

Kusa: you could

Yukari: Well then... don't mind me if I do~

Yukari slammed the tree using her hand near Kusa and push her face closer to Kusa

Kusa is surprised by the sudden action and she stared at Yukari's eyes

Kusa: you are seriously making them angry?

Yukari: my~ as expected of you, though it kinda hurts me that I didn't get any reaction towards you

Kusa: *sigh* fine...

Kusa's expression suddenly becomes red and her color scheme becomes reddish

Kusa: Yukari... we shouldn't do this... I have someone already...

Kusa's teary-eyed expression and her soft voice made a big blow to Yukari's mentality

Yukari: you...

Meanwhile, three giant lasers suddenly appeared toward Yukari

But Yukari's barrier stopped it

Yukari: It seemed I have angered them too much

Yukari looks at Kusa but she has a dazed expression and her mouth is slightly opened

Yukari: stop it! I don't want to fight them in their full power!!

Kusa just stared at her and communicated good luck

Yukari backed off from the tree and Marisa, Reimu, and Mokou appeared

Marisa: Kusa!!!

Reimu: she isn't responding...

Mokou's fiery aura flared up and a silhouette of a phoenix can be seen

Marisa's Hakkero is glowing brightly and sparks can be seen

While Reimu's eyes are dead calm but her pressure is stronger than the two

Yukari: (I'll remember this day and I swear to take revenge)

--------------------------------------------------------------

In the City, with many people, Kusa is wandering around and going back to the cafe where she first met Sumireko

Kusa: I wonder what happened to the fake body I left with Yukari?

Kusa: it isn't my problem so who cares...

Kusa enters the cafe and orders something when she looked somewhere to sit a girl that is dressed like a magician beckons Kusa to sit with her

Kusa goes there and sit

Kusa: you are quite beaten up if I say so Usami

Sumireko: Taiyo you still remember me! I'm glad

Kusa: Of course, because you are the only person I have encountered here dressed like that when the conventions are still far away

Sumireko: still! Hear my outlook on the people I have taken pictures of!

Sumireko shows the picture of Marisa, Mokou, and Reimu fighting against her

Kusa: Woah~ they are cosplayers too?

Sumireko: Nope! They are the inhabitants of the hidden area

Sumireko: you believe me?

Kusa: Yes

Sumireko: I will try to break the barrier so I could enter it isn't that great?!

Kusa: (Breaking the barrier of the sages... I don't know if this girl is ignorant or underestimating Gensokyo)

Kusa: Yes...

Sumireko: with the help of my occult balls I could go inside the hidden area

Kusa: Good for you I guess...

Sumireko: how about we go together?

Kusa: huh?

Sumireko: I know you aren't an ordinary human so you could join me and let's explore the hidden area

Kusa: but why me? This is the second time we met so far

Sumireko: ahh? But I'm pretty sure we have several times already...

Kusa: you dreamed of me?

Sumireko: no... I'm pretty sure we have met several times! Look at this bracelet I have it's made by you, isn't it?

It's a yellow bracelet that has the name Taiyo

But there is a secret message inside of the bracelet that only Kusa can feel and the memories of the bracelet are flowing toward Kusa

Kusa: (You messed around in my timeline so I messed around yours how does it feel - Taiyo Yakumo)

Kusa is stupefied because of Taiyo's last name

Kusa: (my other self is married to Yukari?!)

She immediaty snap out of it and faced Sumireko

Kusa: ohh! Yeah, thank you for the reminder Sumi!

Sumireko: of course!
