Part 11: Mahou-Shoujo Tears? Beast Enters!

-Toriizaka Hospital
"Kosuke!!! Why'd you have to go and bring her in here?!" "Haruto-Kun, calm down!" Rinko and Shunpei were trying their best to hold Haruto back as Beast turned back into Kosuke. "There was something about that girl, Haruto. I was just passing by when Chimera told me he smelt something odd in this hospital. It led me to her room." Kosuke walked closer to Haruto, before pulling out his bottle of mayonnaise and placing it on the hospital. "Here, my get well present." Kosuke turned around and walked to the door as Haruto kept resisting Rinko and Shunpei. "Where do you think you're going Kosuke?!" "Isn't it obvious? While you're in here, I'll watch after her." Kosuke left, leaving Haruto and the others in the room.

Outside, Kosuke found Marika sitting at a bench with her head in her hands. He noticed that the floor around her was completely soaked. Frantic, he pulled her head up and saw that she was unconscious. "What the-" Suddenly, Kosuke was slammed away from Marika's body, and crashed into a nearby tree. Looking up, he saw a watery spirit surrounding Marika, when something else caught his eye. "Ara? The other Wizard is here too?" "Medusa! What's going on here?" "You fool, after you let the girl into that room, you caused her despair to reform, you just let another one of her Phantoms out. Oh Naiad!" From behind Medusa, Naiad came out and rose one hand. The tree that was behind Kosuke had it's branches grow at an alarming rate and entangle him. "Medusa, take my younger sister out of here while I handle this guy." "Younger sister?!...Oh, I see now, that water thing is another one of the girl's Phantoms huh?...It's Feeding Time! HENSHIN!" ~L I O N. LION!~ Kosuke as Beast charged at the 3 Phantoms, when Medusa and the water Phantom disappeared in a swirl of magic energy. Naiad remained, changing one of the stony parts of her arm into a blade to block Beast's slash with the Dice Saber. "Sorry, but we don't want another person in this game!" Naiad swung hard, managing to knock the Dice Saber out of Beast's hands. "I don't even know why you're here, Beast. You lack the same powers as the Wizard and my former host. Do you really think you have a chance at beating me?" It was at that moment that Beast could tell she wasn't a normal Phantom. Usually, he could drain her mana, but something wasn't right. It was like an aura was surrounding her that prevented him from doing so. "I gotta get her away from the girl!" ~GO! Fa-Fa-Fa-Falco!~ Flying towards Naiad, Beast tried slicing away with the Dice Saber. Naiad's armor proved to be too strong, as Beast's attacks were ineffective. "Damn it!"~GO! Bu-Bu-Bububu-Buffa!~ Slamming into Naiad, Beast was shocked to see that she had caught him. "Disappear." "Gladly!" "Damn it!"~GO! Cha-Cha-Cha-Cha-Chameleo!~ "What?!" Turning around, Naiad could see that Marika was missing from the bench. "Heh, whatever, another one of my siblings was released today anyway. Sure my brother was destroyed by the Wizard, but at least there's one more still inside my former host." Disappearing via magic energy, Naiad never realized that Marika was never removed from the bench; she had just been covered up by Beast's Chameleo Mant. Turning back into Kosuke, he carried Marika in his arms, back into Haruto's room.

"Marika! What happened to her?" "We were too late Haruto, another one got out. I overheard the first Phantom that came out of this one, she said that there is only one more left within her. I suggest that we go into her Underworld before it gets out." "It won't be as easy as that." The group looked into the doorway to see Chika. "You'll need to wait until she get's into despair again, the Phantom won't come out so easily." "Haruto! That's the odd smell that Chimeraa found!" "Eh?" Chika suddenly looked at them angrily. "Tch, to think I'd be figured out so quickly!" Chika transformed into Nekomata to the shock of everybody in the room. "Guess the cat's out of the bag. But Haruto-San, I did get a laugh out of Titan breaking your arm, so here's something to help you get back into the game." She threw to him a magic ring and gestured him to put it on. "Now I'll see you all later...Oh, Haruto-San, please don't tell Mari-Chan about me, I'd prefer her to figure out on her own okay? Goodbye." With that last statement, Nekomata disappeared. Haruto looked at the ring on his hand and scanned it. ~HEAL, PLEASE~ At that moment, his arm glowed, and just like that it was fixed. "Nnn...Haru-Nii?" Haruto looked at Marika, who was reaching out to him. "Marika, it's time I tell you about everything."
