Date: March 1, 1996
Well, yet another week had now passed, since our most recent encounter with Kachusha and Viento. On top of the fact that recent events had caused Momoko to find out that Yousuke was in fact the devil Viento of the Rafaal Tribe. And as a result, Momoko was filled with quite a bit of grief after learning of this. In fact, she was quite shocked about it. And I had done my absolute best to try and put her at ease. And despite me trying my best, I wasn't really able to get through to her and relieve her of the shock and grief that currently plagued her.
Meanwhile at the school, Yuri and Hinagiku were informed that we had won an award for our school newspaper and they were told to attend the ceremony where we would receive it. However, due to recent events, Momoko had been absent the last couple of from school. I had also done this, because I just couldn't bear to see her like this.
And back at our house. And having got a visit from Yuri and Hinagiku in an effort to check on me and Momoko. I then decided to speak up, because as it currently stood, Momoko was asleep, and was not in a great way. So as one of our teams leaders, I had to act as the current leader of our group, as Momoko was currently in quite a distraught state. And thus, I wound up explaining the current situation to both Yuri and Hinagiku. "I really appreciate the two of you coming over. Unfortunately Momoko isn't fairing any better since the battle. I wish I could've done a better job at protecting her. And yet, despite all of my best efforts, nothing I did helped her from being in this distraught state..." I said, as I started to tear up as I said the last part of my statement. And after Yuri and Hinagiku had embraced me in an effort to make me feel better. We then started to talk more about the current predicament.
"I don't know about you Shinko, but I agree with you that Momoko hasn't seemed to have been herself since the battle," Yuri said to me with concern in her tone. "But you have to understand Yuri, that Momoko is quite strong, and if she has been able to last through all of our recent battles, then I have great confidence in her that she can last through this as well," I said, in an effort to put Yuri at ease. But just as Hinagiku was going to respond with what Yuri had just said. Scarlet then entered the room, and greeted us. This was then followed by her giving us information about Viento. She told us that the crest Viento bore on his chest was from the tribe most feared by the angels known as the Rafaal tribe.
But before Scarlet could explain further, I decided to interject by cutting her off mid sentence. "Look, I understand all of that Scarlet, but he is still Yousuke, and I have already said that..." I was midway through my statement when Scarlet decided to interject by cutting me off mid sentence in almost the exact same way that I had done to her seconds earlier. "Look Shinko, you need to stop giving reasons why he doesn't need to be killed! Momoko really needs to give up on him!" Scarlet said, in a very arrogant tone. Yuri and Hinagiku were going to oppose to what Scarlet had just said, but I wound up beating them to it. "You know fully well that that isn't going to happen Scarlet! Can you not be arrogant just this once!?" I said, now getting fully fed up with Scarlet's arrogant demeanor, and how she had been such back when we had first met her, and was being so now.
"I have already said what I need to say, I still highly suggest that Viento needs to be killed! And tell Momoko that she should give up on him!" Scarlet said, completely ignoring what I had just said to her, and then walking out.
A short time later, still at our house, and after Yuri and Hinagiku had both left. Momoko was now awake, as Jama-P then told her that Yousuke had arrived. But, as soon as he walked into our room, he immediately took notice of us both being clearly not happy about something. "Hey Shinko, Momo-Pi, why the long faces?" He asked, and then proceeded to ask if it had to do with the angel world, and offered to help us out. However, it was as I was about to explain the current situation to him, that Momoko became visibly distraught, and put her head in her hands. I reasoned that it was because she was most likely imagining when Yousuke had transformed into Viento, but this was just a guess that I had.
On the day of the award ceremony, Yuri and Hinagiku showed up with me and Momoko nowhere in sight. They decided to watch Yousuke so he didn't turn into Viento. And as Yousuke walked away, the girls quickly follow him. But it was not too long after that Yousuke caught them stalking him and then took them to a secluded area. He then asked several questions to Yuri and Hinagiku, like why he was attacked by a love angel, who Viento is, and if their conflict is the reason for Momoko's absence. However, they both refrained themselves from saying anything. "Sorry, Shinko here viewers. So let me quickly explain why Yousuke had asked Yuri and Hinagiku why he was attacked by a love angel. Well, apparently Angel Salvia had confronted him, and had made an attempt to get him to transform into Viento, by summoning her Saint Pure Sword. Thankfully though, Yuri and Hinagiku managed to interfere just in time, and Angel Salvia then left the situation. So let me remind myself to have a stern talk with her later on, because now her arrogance is becoming a nuisance. *clenches one hand in a fist, with eyes closed, and a angry expression and tickmark on one side of face* Anyway, back to the story."
Anyway, as the award ceremony began and they started to give out awards to the winning students. Yousuke became bored and walked outside, since he apparently saw no purpose in watching with Momoko missing. Suddenly as Kachusha appeared and injected negative energy into Yousuke.
This was then prompted, once Yuri and Hinagiku had taken notice of the current situation and then ran outside, Yuri pulled out and readied her Saint Lip Liner, and Hinagiku pulled out and readied her Saint Pendule.
"Graceful Wedding Flower!" Yuri said. And in a flash of light, she was in her wedding dress form.
"Attractive Wedding Flower!" Hinagiku said. And in a flash of light, she too was in her wedding dress form.
This was then followed by Angel Lily once again readying her Saint Lip Liner, and Angel Daisy once again readying her Saint Pendule, as they prepared to transform into their battle outfits. "Bridal Change Wedding Dress Transform!" Angel Lily, and Angel Daisy both said in unison.
"Angel Precious Lily!" Angel Lily said. And in a flash of light, she was in her battle outfit.
"Angel Courage Daisy!" Angel Daisy said. And in a flash of light, she too was in her battle outfit.
Angel Lily, and Angel Daisy, then started their respective introductions.
"In then language of flowers, the name of the pure lily is special, it means that it will bloom and grant love!" Angel Lily said, as she struck a pose.
"The daisy is the emblem of the innocent heart, and it can withstand the most evil wind!" Angel Daisy said, as she struck a pose.
Angel Daisy then readied her Saint Pendule. "Saint Pendule...Daisy Blizzard!" Angel Daisy said, as a wave of blue bubble shaped energy spheres shot out of her Saint Pendule, and proceeded towards Kachusha at an alarming rate, but she missed. Angel Lily then prepared and readied her Saint Lip Liner to go after Kachusha. "Saint Lip Liner...Lily Rainbow!" Angel Lily said, as she swung it in a circular motion around herself, as a rainbow trail followed her movement.
However, after Angel Lily's attack had restricted Kachusha's movements, and before Angel Daisy could finish her. Angel Salvia then appeared and proceeded to use one of her Saint Pure Swords attacks on Angel Lily's Lily Rainbow. "Passionate...Cake...Cut!" Angel Salvia said, as she then cut the Lily Rainbow so Kachusha could awaken Viento, giving Angel Lily, Angel Daisy, and Angel Salvia the chance to defeat both devils. But while Angel Daisy and Angel Lily continued to cast the Daisy Blizzard and Lily Rainbow, Salvia still cut them both down with her Saint Pure Sword. Thankfully they were able to bypass Salvia and hit Kachusha with their respective attacks. Unfortunately, the attacks caused Kachusha to spread evil energy, which consumed Yousuke and started to turn him into Viento.
Meanwhile, back at our house, Momoko was asleep in bed. I meanwhile, was standing right near her bed keeping an eye on her. However, I then saw her yell out Yousuke's name before she shot up in her bed. And as she took notice of the peach blossoms near her bed, I then decided to speak up in order to explain to her why they were present. "Those peach blossoms were from Yousuke sis. I feel..." I was midway through my explanation, when I then took notice of two things. One, the peach blossoms had started to emit a love wave. And two, Momoko was staring at them in a reminisce type of mood. This was then followed by her turning her attention to me, and with tears in her eyes, she then proceeded to speak up. "Sis, we are the only ones who can save him," she said, through the tears. I then got down to her level, and pulled her into a hug, as I then spoke up. "I know sis, and we will. As long as we both stick together, and fight at our best, I know that we will find a way to save him," I said, as I too then started to tear up.
Meanwhile, back at the battle. Now having transformed into Viento, Angel Salvia went after him with her Saint Pure Sword, but she just wound up getting pushed back. And as Angel Lily and Angel Salvia, were literally holding Angel Salvia back, in an effort to have her not proceed any further to kill Viento, Angel Salvia then spoke up. "Let me go, this devil needs to be killed!" Angel Salvia said, as she struggled against Angel Lily and Angel Daisy's firm hold on her. "Salvia, you need to stop!" Angel Lily said. "Lily's right Salvia, neither Peach or Bluebell would forgive you for it, and neither would we!" Angel Daisy said, as both she and Angel Lily continued to hold Angel Salvia back.
However, Viento then sent one of his attacks towards the three of them. Thankfully though, they wound up evading his attack. This was then followed by me and Wedding Peach appearing on the scene. With Wedding Peach already in her wedding dress, and me already in my battle outfit.
And as the sound of chiming bells then filled the air, Wedding Peach then began her introduction. "A single branch of peach blossoms in full bloom! On this early spring day, you tried to awaken my beloved Yousuke as a devil, and for that I can't forgive you! I am the Love Angel! I am Wedding Peach, and I am extremely angry with you!" Wedding Peach said as she pointed her left hand that had her bridal bouquet at Kachusha before then swinging her other arm in a upward arc, as she then brought it into a flex, with her arm bent, and her gloved hand in a flexing pose.
"As great as ever sis. Wait, did she say her 'beloved' Yousuke?...I guess that means that she has completely admitted to the fact that she loves him...Anyway, my turn," I thought to myself, as I couldn't help but give a small smile. As I then began my usual introduction, whilst holding my Saint Sword Of Bluebell straight up with my left hand. "The nature of the bluebell, is to spread joy and love, allowing friendships to remain strong! I can't forgive those who commit acts of evil! I am the Love Angel! I am Angel Bluebell, and I am very angry with you!" I said, as I drew my Saint Sword Of Bluebell, back towards, and then over my right armor clad shoulder. To which I then stopped it mid downward swing, then held it in front of me in a battle ready stance, and struck my usual pose.
This was then followed by Wedding Peach once again readying her Saint Miroir as she prepared to transform into her battle outfits. "Bridal Change Wedding Dress Transform!" Wedding Peach said. "Angel Amour Peach!" Wedding Peach said. And in a flash of light, she was in her battle outfit.
And as Kachusha continued to infuse Viento with more evil energy and make him stronger. And as Viento fired his next attack at me and Wedding Peach. Wedding Peach then summoned the Saint Crystal Rod from the Something Old. "Saint Crystal!" Wedding Peach said, as she did a full spin, and got down on one knee, as the Saint Crystal Rod's crystal shined bright. This was then followed by Wedding Peach absorbing Viento's attack into the Saint Crystal. "I can't forgive this evil!" Wedding Peach said, as she then proceeded to launch Viento's own attack back at him, in the form of a love wave.
I meanwhile, readied my Saint Sword Of Bluebell, as Wedding Peach then proceeded with her attack. "Wedding Engagement Gift...Saint Crystal...Love...For...You!" Wedding Peach said, as she then did another full spin. And once the crystal on the Saint Crystal Rod shined quite intensely bright. She then launched Viento's own attack back at him, in the form of a love wave.
"Saint Sword Of Bluebell...Devil...Purification~!" I said, as I drew my Saint Sword Of Bluebell, back towards and then over my right armor clad shoulder. And once my sword glowed its familiar bright light blue color. I then swung it, in a left horizontal swing in front of me, as I launched my respective attack towards Viento.
And once our attacks almost hit Viento and Kachusha at exactly the same time. Viento wound up avoiding our attacks, while Kachusha was purified, and then faded out of existence. Viento then turned back into Yousuke, and collapsed.And as me and Wedding Peach went over to him, and before Wedding Peach spoke up regarding him, I decided to speak up. "Don't you worry sis, we will help him, and return him back to the way he was," I said, as I placed my free right hand on her left shoulder pad. But before Wedding Peach could respond to what I had said, Angel Lily and Angel Daisy came over, and offered their help to us in helping to purify Viento. However, Angel Salvia was not as enthusiastic. "You both seriously need to get over your pity!" Angel Salvia arrogantly said. But before I could turn my attention to her in an effort to tell her otherwise, I noticed that she had already walked away. This was then followed by both Angel Lily and Angel Daisy telling us about the award ceremony and that we had won.
Later on, at the school and the award ceremony, and as me and Momoko were present on stage to accept the award. And as everyone cheered for us in the audience, I couldn't help but feel a tad bit bittersweet about what had happened regarding Angel Salvia and Viento. "Angel Salvia sure is quite arrogant isn't she?...Still, at least she means well...But still, I seriously am going to need to talk to her about toning it down a touch...But for now, let me just relish in the fact that we are still fighting at our best, and nothing catastrophic has happened to us," I thought to myself, as both me and Momoko continued to smile with our eyes closed, as Momoko held the award in her hands. Unfortunately, I was unaware, that future events, would wind up causing more problems for us regarding Raindevila, then they were worth.
