[Touhou Project X SCP] Beyond the East and the West

Direct Conflict

"The Tengu said more outsiders had come inside Gensokyo. Not sure if she exaggerated her news or she was being honest."

"What? That Tengu? Nah, never trust her. That newspapers of hers are more of a joke compared to actual news. You really thought the Sages would let us mere humans to learn all the hideous truths of Gensokyo? I'd rather trust the words from the Amanojaku resides in the Shining Needle Castle!"

"What if it's true? What if the youkai are really preparing for something?"

"Even if that's true, what can we do about it? The only thing we can do is just sit and wait. Interrupting them is more like getting caught by the fire than extinguishing the fire."

More outsiders huh? If that's the case then... Oh boy, some conflicts are definitely happening between Gensokyo and the outside world. I thought, carrying my cart that contains all the goods for the following week.

...

"Fresh fruits from the Youkai Mountain! Absolute cheapest price around the Human Village! Get them before it's too late!" I shouted, hoping to get some customers. Recently, more strange faces have appeared in front of my store, probably due to more outsiders having appeared around the border. Well, more people means more customers! It might be tiring for me, but in return I can get more revenue than before!

Speaking of which, I thought, If more outsiders appear, then the chances of seeing one of those "SCP Foundation" people should also increase right? I looked at the request Chiyuri gave me on paper, and sighed. Jeez, Chiyuri. Did you really think your colleague would be unlucky enough to get inside the border.

...

Chiyuri's request! ~★

2, While the technology of Gensokyo should not be advanced, can you make me a steel and comfortable folding chair? It will definitely be very useful at some point! (Please!!!)

3, When I am free, take me to the border of Gensokyo! (Please stop giving me more work!!!)

4, If we cannot get to the border, can we at least go around Gensokyo so I can do my studies based on the ecosystem or magic of Gensokyo? That will be a very shocking research to the outside world!

Thank you for everything you've done! Also it might take me longer to put those shattered pieces into an actual document.

Gratefully,

Level-2 Researcher –

Chiyuri Kitashirakawa

...

Seriously, if you want a chair, I can buy you or even make a light and comfortable one. Why on earth would you specifically want a steel-made folding chair? I thought of this while heading back home.

"I'm back", I raised my volume so the researcher upstairs working on fixing the shattered documents could probably hear me. Right after I said it, footsteps appeared rapidly yet consecutively from the stairs, yes, very Chiyuri. 

After her arrival, the girl showed me the document she repaired today in an excited mood, as if she had finally solved a difficult math problem after continuously working on it for a week. "Let's see what you have here..." I gently took over the replica of the ripped document. "Hmm... Looks like it's just another SCP document... I thought we would be getting some more interesting recordings than this. What? Oh wait, true! This isn't just the containment procedure, but also with an actual description of the object!" The researcher hinted at the content in the document, which made me at least somewhat happier than before.

"This is the first description of an SCP object I have ever read, is there anything I need to be worried about?" I asked the professional SCP personnel waiting right next to me, to which she simply replied with "Memetic information." "Oh... I have no clue what that is but alright." I looked at her confusingly, but considering the miseries hiding behind these documents and maybe the foundation, I knew I should not be surprised over something like this. Well, here goes nothing I guess, I thought of this to myself, and began searching for useful information...

...

Item #: SCP-[Redacted]-B

Object Class: Ticonderoga, potentially Keter.

Special Containment Procedure: Due to the location of SCP-[Redacted]-B, as for the current technology of humanity, containing or even monitoring said object is merely impossible. However, since the object appears to be harmless as of the time writing this article, containment procedures are not required until further notice.

Description: While little is known about SCP-[Redacted]-B, some information has been collected from SCP-[Redacted]-A individuals.

According to a message directly sent by SCP-[Redacted]-00-A: The Apollo missions, specifically the landing of Apollo 11 and placing down the American flag, have been seen by SCP-[Redacted]-B as threats coming from humanity. Due to this, the individual also explains probability of a war between the earth and the moon in the message, as seen within this phrase:

"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"

...

"Apparently there are more to this." I said this to the girl standing beside me the entire time, and asked her a question I had in my mind for a long time "Say, if the moon really wanted to attack us, why don't they do it right now? I know there have been some conflicts between Gensokyo and the Lunar Capital, but wouldn't it be more efficient if they just start another war?" The researcher thought for a bit, then came up with an answer: "unworthy."

...

I could not sleep. 

I kept thinking of what she meant by "unworthy." Yes, it would make sense if humanity is unworthy to have an enemy like the Lunarians; but Gensokyo, on the other hand, has been a potential threat to the Lunarians for centuries. Under no circumstances would they just give up like that.

...

Eventually, I entered the Dream World...
