We step outside the school, ready to head over to the Moriya Shrine. As far as I know, the shrine is just used as a tourist attraction to add an "old Japanese-like feel" to the town. Seldom does someone go over there and pray, and the shrine doesn't get many donations at all. Whenever they get visitors, it's typically people that want to see Sanae do cool tricks.
Although, today, there's apparently going to be pretty packed for some show Sanae's putting on. I'm not sure of why it's a once-in-a-lifetime experience, but it should be pretty cool, I guess.

It doesn't look like anyone's actually in the shrine, they're all just waiting outside. With good reason, too—there aren't any lights in here! Sorta makes me wonder why Sanae works here as a shrine maiden for free.

Looks like it's supposed to be some sort of bedroom, probably for guests. I'm not sure what kind of guest stays at a shrine, but I'm sure it's used every-so-often. There's a closet to my right, with a dim lamp on the same wall. In the corner is a nicely made bed with a small drawer next to it.
On the floor is some sort of clear plastic case... Looks like it fell from somewhere, or someone dropped it and didn't bother picking it back up.

actually dye their hair green.

The ground quakes again, twice, actually. Outside, two extremely large pillars have appeared next to Sanae, seemingly from the sky. Sanae seems unaffected by all of the shaking, though.

Alright, enough's enough. I grab her flailing arm grip it tightly.
"What's going on Sanae?" I ask. "Where did these pillars come from? Where did the statues in the shrine go? What's this ritual for?"
"I, uh, this ritual is to summon the Goddesses of the Moriya Shrine... You see, the shrine is...

>>114739 >What do you mean "relocating"? And why does it involve gutting animals? "What do you mean 'relocating?' And why odes it involve gutting animals?"
"Well," she starts. "The shrine's going to be moving to somewhere far from here, where we can hopefully get more faith. I need to sacrifice these animals for the summoning of Yasaka Kanako and Suwako Moriya."
>>114737 >Relocating? Where? "So? Where exactly is this place that's 'far from here' that requires the summoning of two deities?"
"It's still in Japan, but it's impossible to get to due to a border that separates it from the outside world."
>>114738 "What?" I retort. "That's completely ridiculous! Does this mean you're switching schools, too?"

"But this ritual's already finished."
I back off. The two Goddesses of the shrine stand next to Sanae, staring at me. Looking behind myself, it seems like the ground beneath the shrine has lifted into the air and is now floating half a kilometer above the ground.
It's a long way down...

She lifts her hand towards me. It suddenly gets very windy...

"W-wait, really, Sanae?" I stammer, trying to rationalize with her. "You're not just going to blow me off this rock, are you? We're, like, a thousand meters above ground! I'll die!" She doesn't respond, and the wind blows harder.
I try to grab for something pinned down, but it's too late. I've lost my footing.

Anonymous 2010/03/18 (Thu) 07:10 No. 115049 Just watch: all the questions about Sanae tossing us to the winds will be resolved, and all the accusations of her being psychotic will come to quick end when, in the very first post of the next chapter, the winds kick up before we hit the ground, and gently cushion our fall in order to save us from dying. Then a cute little card like the one from the shrine floats down with an apology on it, and a little scribble of Sanae with a sad expression.
Anonymous 2010/03/18 (Thu) 11:33 No. 115052 I kinda hope fot the MC to die and become a ghost, just so Sanae will regret it for a long time.
