Security Breach

[hasspecialneeds.livejournal.com]

Characters: Flandre, Tenshi, Remilia
Date: February 19th
Summary: Flandre sneaks out. Violence ensues.
Warnings: Violence ensues.

Remilia couldn't be watching her ALL the time, could she? Of course not. Nobody has that kind of time. And Flandre is very patient.

Thusly does it come to pass that, in the last hours of the evening - late enough that the sun doesn't really hurt, but early enough that her sister probably isn't up and about yet - Flandre quietly emerged from her room, to explore the outside and see if it's really as terrible as Remilia says.

Her nighttime wandering brought her to the lake, where she had a feeling that she could find a certain person...

"Where are you, blue-haired girl?"

Tenshi was, actually, somewhat easy to spot: She was currently flying over area of the lake, looking for singing flowers in the area nearby. She didn't have much luck so far, though...

She hadn't yet spotted Flandre, but Flandre surely could spot her: she wasn't exactly hard to see in the moonlight.

Fortunately for Tenshi, Flandre is not subtle! She made no attempt to conceal her presence as she homed in towards the Celestial, stopping in midair.

"Hi."

[peachhat.livejournal.com]

"Hey, what are you doing out here? Weren't you going to stay in that boring basement of yours?" Tenshi asked, spotting Flandre. The vampire was pretty much the last person Tenshi had expected out here.

[hasspecialneeds.livejournal.com]

"That's what my sister wants, but I snuck out. I don't think it's really as bad as she says it is out here." Flandre's smile was more or less devoid of killing intent, but it wasn't clear whether that was because she didn't have any or didn't know the difference.

"Speaking of which: Let's play."

[peachhat.livejournal.com]

"Told you. You should have listened to me earlier, you know?" Tenshi replied happily, and nodded.

"Sure, gladly!" She added, motioning with her right hand, until a translucent red sword appeared in her hand. "Let's play!"

[hasspecialneeds.livejournal.com]

Energy coalesced around Flandre's swings, materializing into a dense cloud of danmaku, which started to expand in waves towards Tenshi. "You'd better not change your mind, because I won't let you stop playing, even if you beg for your life!"

[peachhat.livejournal.com]

"As if! The one who will be begging for me to stop will be YOU!" Tenshi declared, making keystones appear in her area, which then started to fire off waves of danmaku as well. She then started to fly from left to right, dodging the danmaku expanding in her direction.

A battle, finally! She had so waited long for one. Sure, Flandre looked to be really powerful, but that was completely alright with Tenshi.

"Taboo - Cranberry Trap!"

The attacks coming from Flandre came to an abrupt stop. Then, from all directions, lights started to wink into existence in the darkness. All of them moving towards Tenshi, trying to trap her in with no place to escape...

[peachhat.livejournal.com]

That was interesting, she hadn't dealt with attacks like that much!

Tenshi smirked, and came up with something to do! She fired a massive barrage of danmaku in Flandre's direction, then summoned several keystones, including a rather large one - and charged head-on into the lights, using her large keystone as a shield to break through!

[hasspecialneeds.livejournal.com]

As Tenshi charges, though, a small point of light is drawn out from her largest keystone, towards Flandre. Smiling childishly, she closes her hand tight around it, and the keystone shatters, leaving her once again shieldless.

[peachhat.livejournal.com]

"Whoa!" Tenshi had to admit that was unexpected, and had to dodge HEAVILY - if she hadn't charged early on, the gaps between the danmaku would have gotten really problematic.

Thankfully, she was a VERY resilient person.

"Rather nice for a vampire!" She shouted in Flandre's direction, while gathering the area's temperament a bit more.

[hasspecialneeds.livejournal.com]

Flandre started gathering power again, grinning dangerously. "This has been a nice warmup. Maybe now I should start playing in earnest!"

[scarlet-impaler.livejournal.com]

"Aah, the lovely sight of danmaku at twilight." Remilia's voice, coming from her perch on the highest tree she could find, wasn't angry in the slightest. She was, but she'd kept her composure in worse situations than this. Probably. At least she'd had time to collect it before showing herself.

[peachhat.livejournal.com]

"Oh, the sister." Tenshi said, glancing to the side. "Come to protect her from me? Don't worry, I wasn't going to hurt her too badly! Just playing, right?"

[hasspecialneeds.livejournal.com]

Flandre's aura of power dissipated as she slowly turned towards her sister. Her expression was difficult to read.

"Are you going to make me go back inside now?"

[scarlet-impaler.livejournal.com]

Remilia ignored Tenshi with the kind of focus monks use to walk on hot coals. She descended, as did her expression--by the time she landed, she was glaring outright. "In a moment, yes. First, though, I'd just like to hear your side of this little story. Would that be alright, Flandre?"

[hasspecialneeds.livejournal.com]

"I snuck out," Flandre replied immediately. "Look - I'm outside, and nothing bad's happening. I'm just out here having fun, just like you do all the time."

"What's the real reason you won't let me be here, sister? Are you ashamed of me?"

[peachhat.livejournal.com]

"Boring." Tenshi said, then shrugged. "Hey, FLandre, if you want to play again, just come by, whatever your sister says. I will look forward to it!"

And with that, she simply turned and headed back to her island.

[scarlet-impaler.livejournal.com]

"The real reason, you say. What..." The tension in the air had broken for an instant, but it was clearly just the eye of the storm. Remilia struggled to keep her voice steady. Was she shaking with nerves, rage, or both?

"What kind of idiotic question..."

[hasspecialneeds.livejournal.com]

"It's not a stupid question!" Flandre's hands were shaking as she pointed one of them towards her older sister. "I don't care if you think I'm a monster or want me to stay locked up for the rest of my life while you go around having fun!"

A single shot, weak and innacurate, flew towards Remilia. Less an attack and more an ultimatum "I'm going to do whatever I want!"

[scarlet-impaler.livejournal.com]

Weak enough to easily block with a wave of the hand, fortunately for Remilia's still-functioning sense of drama. "I don't have to dignify your delusional insights into what I say is best for you, Flandre."

[BGM: Septette for the Dead Princess (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IKbKOC2QNgg)]

She spread her wings and prepared her power. "As your elder sister, my only obligation here is to correct this sort of behavior."

[hasspecialneeds.livejournal.com]

Flandre was scared. There's no way she could not be, starting a fight with the only authority figure she'd ever had. However, if anything, her fear made her approach more fierce.

Through a cloud of rainbow danmaku, Flandre darted in closer, into melee range.

[scarlet-impaler.livejournal.com]

Remilia wondered, in the back of her mind, if Flandre knew how much more powerful she was than her older sister. Still, Remilia was the one with experience on her side. She just had to be cautious.

Answering Flandre's shots with a more intricate spread of bat-shaped danmaku, she swooped past Flandre while taking a swipe at her side.

[hasspecialneeds.livejournal.com]

Weaving through the bat danmaku, Flandre spiraled out of the way of Remilia's swipe, turning around to face her with an expression of mild puzzlement on her face. Was this really her sister's true power? Was she holding back?

She seemed weak.

[scarlet-impaler.livejournal.com]

Remilia hit the ground (when Flandre had already turned to face her), pivoted, and sprang back at her sister, keeping up suppressing fire on the danmaku front. This... this was no big deal. She wasn't going to lose to Flandre.

[hasspecialneeds.livejournal.com]

As she dodged through the danmaku, a simple fact floated towards the forefront of Flandre's mind: She was stronger than her sister.

A smile slowly crept across her face.

"Taboo - Lävatein!" A brilliant sword of flames materialized in Flandre's hands, and she charged back towards Remilia, poised to strike.

"Gyaah!" Remilia did a barrel roll and barely cleared the strike with one singed wing, hitting the ground on hands and knees. She clambered to her feet.

2/2

[scarlet-impaler.livejournal.com]

"Pulling out the big stuff already? I guess it would make sense for you to be desperate. But TWO CAN PLAY AT THAT GAME, YOU LITTLE BRAT!" The part of Remilia's brain responsible for having good ideas was screaming at the rest of it, but her spear appeared in her hands with an appropriately flashy summoning effect. She leapt and threw. "Divine Spear - Gungnir!"

The spear hurtled at Flandre to challenge Lävatein, becoming an enormous bolt of energy.

[hasspecialneeds.livejournal.com]

Flandre's sword clashes brilliantly with Remilia's spear, power radiating in all directions as the two incredible attacks collide. But as they clashed, the grin on Flandre's face widened. Lävatein was winning. In a flash of light, Gungnir broke in two, cleaved through by Flandre's sword of flames, and she laughed, childish and insane and sinister all at once.

"Do you see, sister? I'm stronger than you! I can do whatever I want, and you can't stop me!" Flandre's aura escalated in strength again, and a complex network of green cages of energy surrounded Remilia on all sides, a massive shining orb growing in Flandre's left hand until it was as big as she was...

"Taboo - Kagome Kagome!" The orb hurled towards Flandre's sister, smashing through the cages as it closed in.

[scarlet-impaler.livejournal.com]

Remilia had had nightmares like this before. Fairly often, really. She submitted to the "wait to wake up" strategy, until, none-too-suddenly,





pain.

[hasspecialneeds.livejournal.com]

"I win." Flandre's battle aura subsided, and she giggled like a child. "I'm going to go have as much fun as I want now. I'm outside, and I won't go back, even if you beg me."

With that, the young vampire rocketed off into the gardens...
