Time: Morning

At Hakurei shrine

Reimu has just woke up from her sleep. She was about to do her normal activity like brooming the shrine until a gap opened revealing Yukari's upper body.

Yukari: Reimu-chan, good morning.

Reimu: ... Yukari, yesterday we had just found our entity. It was a fox like your shiki.

Yukari: yes, I know that. It was a big news.

Reimu: ... You were also investigate yourself, didn't you?

Yukari: *chuckles* fufufu

She finally comes out of the gap before closing it.

Yukari: yes, I did. But, I couldn't find anything. I searched every part of Gensokyo but found nothing.

Reimu: I see. Say, do you know other gap youkai like you?

Yukari: no, I don't think there is another boundary youkai like me. It's weird if you think about it.

Reimu: I see.

???: Heyoo!!

They looked outside and saw Marisa coming over.

Marisa: *noticed Yukari* Yukari, what a coincidence. I want to ask you something

Yukari: You're going to ask "Do you know any other gap youkai?". If that's what you ask, then no

Marisa: uhhhh... Thanks for answering

Then, they heard a sound from Reimu's donation box and it was a loud thump.

Reimu: A DONATION!

She rush towards her donation box while Yukari and Marisa follow her. As soon as she arrives to look at the donation box, there he is, Kosaka standing near the donation box. He opens a gap behind him before looking at Reimu and Yukari.

Kosaka: *smug* heh, adios

He fell back to the gap and closed it.

Yukari: Ara?

Marisa: oh boy

Reimu: *Angry* Aggghhhh! That damn youkai. What did he do to my box!?

Reimu immediately takes a look inside her donation box and was shocked that she found two gold bars.

Reimu: ... *Change of mood* Hahaha, I don't think he's a bad Youkai.

Her mood has changed from being an angry determined exterminator to a sweet and nice girl. Marisa Walks to her and also sees the box.

Marisa: *Deadpan* ... Reimu... Without any hesitation, you just turned into a money maniac.

Reimu ignored the comment. She's still grinning at the golds.

Reimu: What do you mean? Just look at this! It's a miracle.

Marisa rolled her eyes and Yukari just laughed by covering her mouth with her fan.

Yukari: *teased* oh Reimu, you poor thing.

Marisa then tries to make Reimu snap back to reality but she's too focused on the bars. It lasted for 10 minutes before she snapped back to normal.

Meanwhile with Kosaka

He is somewhere in the forest. He walked around minding his own business... But it doesn't last long. A figure appears at very high speed from behind with a katana, trying to cut off his head. Time seemed to slow down. The figure's blade was about to cut Kosaka's neck. But, he immediately dodged it by ducking to the side, turn around, and use his fist and punch the figure's gut. A powerful shockwave appeared on the other side of the figure's body.

???: AGGKKHH!

He looked at his attacker. It was Yorihime. He stands up straight again and removes his fist from her stomach as she motionlessly stands in place.

She dropped her katana and knelt down in pain while holding her stomach. She spits some blood from her mouth.

???: Yorihime-sama!

He look at another one behind the the three before running towards Yorihime. It was Sagume.

Yorihime: *cough* *cough* .... Hehehe... I underestimated you, fox

Kosaka: *crossing his arms* what were you doing?

Sagume comes in and help her stand up. Yorihime struggle as she grabs her katana on the ground to also helping her stand and wiping her blood from her mouth.

Yorihime (pain): ughh... I've heard that there is a new youkai in this impure land.

Kosaka: ..... And you are?

Yorihime: *starting to get better* krkh, Where is my manner. I am Watatsuki no Yorihime, Princess of the Lunar Defense Corps. *Gesture to Sagume* this is Sagume Kishin. She's a divine spirit that can change the course the fate of the world with just her words.

Kosaka: since when you came to Earth?

Yorihime: since last night. We were at the Eientei residence when I asked master Eirin for an advice until I saw a so-called newspaper about a mysterious newcomer. And i believe it was you.

Kosaka: ... *Sigh* You know, it's a bad habit if you're looking for a fight. So, I'm gonna get-

Yorihime: I challenge you, to a duel! As a princess of the Lunarian, I declare you as my worthy opponent. There will be no rules.

Kosaka: oh, you're ignoring me, okay.

She prepared her katana while Sagume's watching from the side.

Yorihime: I heard some rumors about you. You can gap to other places like that hag youkai. Hehehe, no matter. If you want a rematch, if you lose of course, then sorry, you have to wait and train until you are strong enough to defeat me. You can gap to the Lunar Capital though. Oh wait, you can't! You can't possibly reach the capital even through gaps, hahaha.

She laughed at him and satisfied with her mock. She enjoy taunting her opponent... But...

Kosaka (thinking): .... Is she serious right now?

Kosaka remained silent and only showed a deadpan expression. In reality and unknown to her, he can gap to mars which is million kilometers away from Earth and the Moon.

Kosaka: ... There's no turning back, is it?

Yorihime: not a chance

Kosaka then sighs at the situation he's in before he thinks to himself.

Kosaka (think): .... I'm absolutely going to make this girl cry.
