16. Part 4 (Mastermind)

Eli's POV

Tsuki: Help! If I don't follow her orders she's going to punish me.
Eli: What is she going to do as punishment?
Tsuki: She...
You: I'ts alright if you don't want to tell us.
Chika: Yeah. You shouldn't force yourself.
Ruby: We'll help you, Tsuki-san.
Tsuki: Thank you.

~after a few moments~

We tried to look for the one who ordered Tsuki-san to shoot at You-san. We couldn't find her though, because we didn't have any leads.

Eli: Since Tsuki-san can't tell us directly who the person who gave her orders is, we need to find an alternative.
Honoka: What if we look into her memories?
Maki: But there's no one here who can do that.
Chika: I might be able to do that, maybe...
You: Yeah, maybe Chika-chan can. She still hasn't discovered her power. You can try to use your power on me so that if it's anything destructive I can just heal immediately.
Chika: I can't do that.
You: It's fine. You can do it, Chika-chan.
Chika: Ok. I'm going to try.
              Unggghhhhhh...
You: Nothing is happening.
Chika: (I am the voice inside your head. What you are doing is wrong.) Then what should I do? (You should calm down and think about what kind of memory you want to find) So, my power really is memory searching?
Ruby: Who are you talking to Chika-chan?
Eli: If she really has a power then...
Maki: She must be talking to the voice in her head.
Chika: (Your power is similar to what you just said but it is more powerful than you think.) Really? (...) Ok. I'm going to try again.
           Unggghhh...
Nico: It's working!
You: A little more now, Chika-chan.
Chika: Unggghhh!!

...

Did I succeed?
Honoka: I think so.
Chika: I see You-chan's memories. I succeeded!
You: Yay! Good for you, Chika-chan.
Nico: Huh? Where are the memories you are talking about.
Chika: (You are the only one who can see the memories that you look for) Uhh... It seems that I'm the only one who can see the memories.
Nico: I see.
Maki: Now all we have to do is try it on Tsuki-san.
Eli: Is it fine if we look into your memories, Tsuki-san?
Tsuki: Uhh... I think so.
Chika: I will try to look at your memories. Are you ready Tsuki-san?
Tsuki: *deep breath* Ok. I'm ready.
Chika: I'll try my best not to fail!
             Unggghhh.....

              No way! It's...
You: Why? Who is it Chika-chan?
Chika: I can't believe it. Why?! Why would she want to shoot at You-chan?
Ruby: W-who is it, Chika-chan?
Chika: It's Yoshiko-chan.
You: What?!
Ruby: No! Yoshiko-chan would never want to hurt anyone in Aquours!
Honoka: If you can't believe it, maybe she's being controlled by someone else.
Maki: It's possible.
You: Yeah, she's right! It's possible that someone is controlling her or brainwashed her.
Chika: That might be the case.

Chika's POV

After that, each of us trained our powers while thinking about what to do with Yoshiko-chan. We were also able to awaken Tsuki-chan power. Her power focused on defense which she happily called, "Barrier". We only needed five minutes of real time to train thanks to the power of Maki-san. Each of us were able to make our powers stronger:

Honoka - Real Imagination –› Reality Manipulation
Maki       - Time Travel –› Time Manipulation
Nico        - Space Travel –› Space Manipulation
Eli            - Weather Alteration –› Weather Manipulation
Chika      - Memory Analization –› Memory Sharing
You          - Self Regeneration –› Revival (Other people)
Ruby       - Healing (Moderate) –› Healing (Strong)

That's what happened and now after I shared what I saw, all of us figured out where Yoshiko-chan is.

~meanwhile~

Yoshiko's POV

Mari: Why are you doing this, Yoshiko-chan!
Yoshiko: ...
Riko: Yoshiko-chan! Answer us!
Yoshiko: I am doing this for my sake and yours.
Mari: Why!? What will happrn if you don't do this?!
Yoshiko: The three of us will die.
Riko: Even if the three of us live, if it's not all nine of us, it won't feel right!

*sfx: footsteps*

Mari: Who's telling you to do this?
¿¿¿: It was me.
Mari: Why are you doing this?
¿¿¿: Shut up!
Mari: mmpphhh
Yoshiko: Stop! You said that you won't hurt the three of us as long as I do as you say *crying*
¿¿¿: That's right. However, you failed in executing my order.
Riko: Are you gonna kill us?
¿¿¿: No...
Yoshiko: Then what will you do to us?
¿¿¿: I'm going to put you through an even greater pain.
Mari: Nnggh... Are you going to torture us?
¿¿¿: I might do that. But, I won't tell you what I will do...

~Back to Chika and people~

Honoka's POV

After Chika-chan shared what she saw to all of us, we figured out where that girl is.

Eli: I recognize that place.
Chika: Really?! Where is it?
You: Chika-chan, can you use your power to share other people's memories
Chika: I think so. I'll try.
Eli: I'm fine with you sharing my memories to other.
Chika: Ok, I'll try.
              *deep breaths*
Nico: Ah! I see.
Maki: So that's where she is.

After discovering where she is we rushed to that place but...

Thank you for reading this part of the story. I wanted to end it thoroughly but I suddenly just wanted to end it with a cliffhanger. Sorry if you don't like cliffhangers.

This was dualfaced, thank you.
