Mushroom Mushroom

[cutestsuperweapon]

[If you entered the forest around Kaguya's mansion recently, you might have noticed something odd. The forest was eerily quiet. Any sort of (demonic?) wildlife was gone, apparently having fled in terror. Even a band of orcs had fled, leaving behind some of their belongings.

And then there were the crude signs warning of doom and destruction...

Truly, the forest was empty now. Ifurita had taken care of that, and even did some patrolling to find anyone left. And since nobody was, she was ready.]

Uhm, nobody around, good, uhm...how do I do this. Like this?

[Her staff made a whizzing sound.]

No... Uhm...maybe this?

[She whirled her staff around, as if it was a magical girl scepter. It didn't even beep, much less cause her clothes to transform.]

Hmm. Mistress-hime-sama will be so mad...

[At this point, it happened. A gargantuan explosion erupted in the middle of the forest, forming a massive mushroom cloud where it had been. The trees were knocked flat, then incinerated as the explosion spread out, stopping short of the mansion. ]

W-wha! I can really do that!?

[Ifurita zipped up and down, dodging trees and the occasional prinny statue flying her way.]

U-uhm, I guess that takes care of the forest, at least?

[Total damage: One forest, several prinny statues, a cave system, and Tewi's room (which was hit by nine pine trees, for some reason, the only room of the mansion being hit by random chance)]

[And a Kaguya approaches!]

Ah, well done! That was quite impressive.

[cutestsuperweapon]

Careful, a tree!

[mooned_hime]

[Alas, the warning came too late, and the princess is smashed into the ground by the tree]

[cutestsuperweapon]

I'm sorry, I dIdn't mean that to happen!

[Ifurita charged forward to dig the princess out, mostly by removing individual branches.]

Eeep, where are you!?

[mooned_hime]

[The princess wriggles out from underndeath the tree after she recovers from the damage]

I seem to have poor luck with trees in this place.

[cutestsuperweapon]

I'll try to make sure it won't happen again, look, I made you a shield!

[The two of them were, actually, standing in the eye of a tornado right now. It lacked floating, mooing cows, though.]

[mooned_hime]

Isn't that going to make more trees fly around?

[cutestsuperweapon]

Yes, but around us. Everyone knows you're mostly saves in the eye of a hurricane.

[mooned_hime]

You're going to need to set those trees somewhere at some point.

[cutestsuperweapon]

Aren't they just going to fly to the side eventually at some point?

[mooned_hime]

Honestly, I'm not an expert on weather, so I really can't say.

Either way, I'm not really interested in staying in the middle of a hurricane for an extended period of time.

[cutestsuperweapon]

Oh. Uhm.

That is a problem.

[mooned_hime]

Can you dismiss the hurricane?

[cutestsuperweapon]

A-are you a wind priestess by any chance...?

[mooned_hime]

Not particularly, no.

[cutestsuperweapon]

Uhm...

...that is kind of a problem.

[mooned_hime]

Perhaps we could fly out through the top?

[cutestsuperweapon]

Or could dig through the floo..

...Oh! Maybe I could move the tornado thing down!

[She started doing that. The tornadi hurricane thingy was now happily digging into the ground, making crunchy noises.]

[mooned_hime]

Well, that is certainly something.

[Kaguya will start floating upward... it's likely she won't be able to stand there for long with the hurricane digging...]

[cutestsuperweapon]

Yes, so let's just go up while this goes down, and dodge rocks thrown our way!

[mooned_hime]

Very well!

[It'll be almost like dodging danmaku! Up Kaguya goes]

[cutestsuperweapon]

Whew. That wasn't so bad.

[mooned_hime]

[She'll watch the hurricane burrow into the ground from their higher vantage point]

I have to say, it's quite interesting to see a hurricane do that.

[cutestsuperweapon]

I really didn't know they could do that. I should have done that the last time!

[bane_of_reisen]

My Room!!

[cutestsuperweapon]

[A bit afterwards, Ifurita was flying through the mansion. She then spotted the oddly located trees.]

Is someone collecting trees? That's an odd hobby...

[bane_of_reisen]

Why the heck would I collect trees?! You obviously did this! It has to be!

[cutestsuperweapon]

Huh? No, I didn't put any trees in there, that'd be mean!

[bane_of_reisen]

Your damn attack BLEW THEM IN!
