Decided to combine the votes, Plan 1 it shall be with some of the
suggestions from
>>170430 Also it's not a dragon statue, it's a fountain.
[X] Plan One: Hit and run attack each location in teams for
minimum
deaths so that Heaven Town can be rebuilt after this war.
To the Dragon Palace you will send...
[X] Tenshi
[X] Hata-tan
[X] Messenger Togashi
[X] 10 Resistance Troops
[X] 1 Medic
To the Art Supplies Factory you will send...
[X] Parsee
[X] Evil Eye Sigma
[X] Okuu
[X] 10 Resistance Troops
[X] 1 Medic
To the town square and Byakuren you will send...
[X] Mokou
[X] Nue
[X] Yuuka
[X] 1 Medic
Guard:
[x] Murasa
You are heavily tempted to go with Tenshi's preferred plan but
decide against it. Unlike with the Oni, the celestials can be de-
educated from stupidity, so every one that dies is one less
possible soldier for your Cubic Army of 4 Days.
You consider sending Yuuka to the Dragon Palace, but your Cubic
Wisdom informs you that she's needed for destroying the fountain,
as a quick question to Tenshi reveals that the Resistance lacks
explosives.
"We're going with hit and run assaults on the three locations, in
and out. Heaven Town can still be turned into a stronghold of
Cubic
Thinkers."
"So Master, who goes where?" Your Cubic Servant asks.
"Cubic Servant, you shall lead the attack on the town square. With
you shall be Nue, Yuuka, and a medic, with the goal of ending
Byakuren and that fountain. Now Parsee..."
"Yeah?"
"You, Utsuho, Evil Eye Sigma and ten troops will sabotage the
interior of the Art Supplies Factory. If possible don't destroy
the
factory entirely, we may need it later on. Tenshi!"
"Yes Leader Ray?"
"Take the last medic and the remaining ten troops along with
Hatat-"
"HATA-TAN!" "Along with Hata-tan. Finally, Murasa shall be acting as my
Guard."
"Got it Admiral."
"We must move now fellow Cubic Beings."
Your Cubic Army and the accompanying Resistance fighters quickly
split up into their groups and depart, leaving only you and Murasa
as occupants of the building.

To the town square and Byakuren you will send...
[X] Mokou
[X] Nue
[X] Yuuka
[X] 1 Medic
"UNITE UNITE! GROUND WALKER CELESTIAL RELATIONS MUST UNITE TO
SPREAD DIVINE BUDDHA ART!"
"Byakuren too noisy,
Silencing the fallen nun
must quickly be done." Nue chirps.
The "fallen nun" (risen would actually be more accurate) in
question was contiuning her speech in front of the town square
fountain.
The four-member town square assault team watches from the windows
of a bedroom-turned statue gallery on the third floor of a house.
"So, what's your name again doc?"
"Medic Kazuto ma'am, only male out of the Three Medics."
"Ditch the ma'am Kazuto, it's Mokou. And why is it just 'Medic
Kazuto', got a last name?"
"All members of the Resistance, save for the Commander, have
dropped their surnames, that way we won't be associated with the
clans that rule from the Dragon Palace. We use ranks and roles as
a
replacement."
"To drop half one's name
for the sake of defiance
is quite admirable."
"Thank you...So, how we gonna do this?" The eager healer asked
while gesturing to the fountain and the monk in front of it.
"Liiiike this~"
Yuuka pulls out a Spell Card before splitting into two copies of
her, both holding the same Spell Card.
The left Yuuka aims her umbrella at Byakuren while the right Yuuka
aims her umbrella at the fountain.
Flower Sign [Dual Spark] The two Yuukas simultaneously fire off large Master Spark-like
beams that quickly connect with their targets in addition to
leaving two large holes in the wall.
The fountain was apparently volatile as it explodes for some
reason, covering the town square with smoke and sending the crowd
fleeing.
However, after about 10 seconds the smoke clears enough for the
group to see the outline of a still-standing Byakuren.
"MARA-BORN CUBED SINNERS THAT SEEK TO SILENCE MY DIVINE SIDDHARTHA
GAUTAMA-INSPIRED WORDS MUST BE BANISHED!"
Mokou angrily charges out of the left hole in the wall towards
Byakuren in a dashing punch.The ascended nun sidesteps before
retaliating with a burst of danmaku that misses and levels a
nearby
building.
"My my, quite some power~" Yuuka whimsically says before she and
Nue take flight and join Mokou's fight.
"At least that crowd is gone..." Medic Kazuto remarks as he
watches
the streams of danmaku flying through the town square.
Step.
The sole male doctor of the Resistance quickly turns around.
Yep, one of the statues is in a different place than before.
Kazuto grabs a scalpel and an empty syringe from his backpack
before approaching one of the statues.
After staring at it for a good ten seconds he experimentally
slashes it's neck with his scalpel. A spray of blood emerges from
the now screaming "statue", and the doctor quickly steps back to
avoid getting any on him.
Another "statue" suddenly runs toward him. Kazuto shoves the empty
syringe into his jugular and presses down, creating an air
embolism
that quickly ends the painted celestial's life.
The rest of the previously immobile celestials in the room start
to
slowly inch toward him every time he blinks.
The medic slashes the throat of another not-statue. And another.
Despite the deaths of several of their comrades the celestials
continue their bizarre behaviour.
"You know if you freaks rushed me at once I'd be screwed, right?"
No reaction. Kazuto slits another's throat.
"Ugh, life without resistance is wasted life!"
***
To the Art Supplies Factory you will send...
[X] Parsee
[X] Evil Eye Sigma
[X] Okuu
[X] 10 Resistance Troops
[X] 1 Medic
On the outside, the Art Supplies Factory looked like a larger
version of the warehouse that the resistance used as a base, aside
from the giant "ART SUPPLIES FACTORY" sign drawn in crayon.
"Must have taken the crazies hours to draw that." One of the
resistance remarks.
"Wish I had that much time on my hands..." Parsee grumbles before
taking a look at the squad of resistance fighters.
Three male and seven female celestials.
First female has a scimitar, second a plank, third a wooden plank,
shard of glass, crowbar, hammer, and a knife.
First male has an axe, the second a winged corkscrew, the last
male a shovel.
Parsee decides these assholes could use nicknames.
"Okay, I'm giving you all names for fucking convenience. Scimi,
Plank 1, Plank 2, Shard, Bar, Ham, Stabby, Axe, Screwed because
that is a
fucking horrible choice for a weapon, and Shovel.
Wait, why the fuck is there a shovel in Heaven?" Parsee shouts,
forgetting that they are supposed to keep silent until the factory
is sabotaged successfully.
"Yeah, the ground here is more or less unpenetrable." Shard
comments.
"My mother buried corpses for a living before she ascended to
here.
According to her it's good for crushing skulls." Shovel answers.
"Sounds good to me, unyu!"
"Excuse me miss, but you didn't nickname me!" The female medic
complains.
"Okay, you're now Medic Bitch."
"No need to be an asshole..."
"Whatever." Parsee says as she walks up to one of the side
doors while the rest of the sabotage team follows.
"Hey you, open this door!" Parsee shouts to Screwed, who then
tries
to open it.
"Locked ma'am."
"Sigma, shoot the damn hinges off."
The fighter in front of the door quickly dives out of the way as
Sigma obliges with a few precise shots of danmaku.
Okuu grabs the door before it falls and gently sets it on the
ground.
"Unyu, we better keep it quiet."
"What the fuck ever, come on!" The bridge princess and
subsequently
the sabotage team enters the factory through the door-frame.
Even the interior looks identical to the resistance HQ, aside from
a handful of machines and conveyor belts near some catwalks in
addition to what looks like a control room in the north-east
corner. A handful of workers move around the ground floor and
catwalks in a seemingly busy manner.
"Unyu, I'll go for that control room!" Utsuho says before
carelessly flying off.
"Damn it nuke bird..."
"Guys, look at those workers." Ham.
"What about those fuckers?" Parsee asks.
"They're just more or less running in circles. They're even
ignoring the Hell Raven!" She states.
Parsee glances back at the airborne Utsuho just in time to see one
of her wings accidentally smack a worker in the way.
The celestial simply stands back up and continues doing whatever
it
was doing.
"The fuck..." Parsee looks at the handful of workers on the ground
floor before one carrying a crate but otherwise standing idle
catches her eye. She points to the idle worker while looking at
Screwed.
"Hey Screwed, screw that asshole's neck!" Parsee shouts, earning a
few chuckles from the sabotage team.
"But...I thought we weren't supposed to-"
"We can kill a few, you dumbass. Now screw him."
Screwed reluctantly nods and approaches the man.
No reaction.
Screwed slowly stabs the man in the leg, not wanting to kill.
No reaction.
The celestial with a most pathetic weapon then stabs the man in
the
throat, before "screwing" it in a little further before quickly
pulling it out.
The worker and the crate loudly drop to the floor.
No reaction from any of the other workers.
"See dumbass? You can kill people. Now then you assholes, spread
out and head over to fucking bird-brain!"
Scimi takes the lead as the the Resitance fighters quickly ascend
up some nearby catwalk stairs, staying close and pushing aside any
workers in the way.
Parsee turns towards Sigma who's still hovering above.
"Sigma, can you make sure they don't all die on us?" Sigma nods
and gives the jealousy youkai a thumbs-up before flying and then
hovering above the group fighters as they move towards Utsuho.
Beep.
"Warning Vertical Hazard" A male voice from Parsee's
chainsaw announces.
"The fuck?" Parsee glances up to see a wooden crate falling
towards
her.
The youkai of jealousy quickly runs forward and narrowly avoids
being hit by both the crate and the flying pieces of wood that
resulted from it shattering upon hitting the ground.
"Hello again, Parsee Mizuhashi. Parsee quickly turns her head towards the source of the voice.
On a catwalk just above her is...
"[Koishi] you fucking whore-bitch!"
"I'm still am a virgin sadly. So, have you copulated with Gene Ray
yet?"
"FUCK OFF YOU SICK FUCKING FATHERFUCKER!" "You are so easy to antagonize. I was hoping that-"
"That a fucking over-sized box would kill me?"
"Yes, although I've underestimated the work Nitori Kawashiro put
into her personal chainsaw. I wish I had such intelligence and
foresight."
"That's my fucking line you
unoriginal bitch!"
"UNORIGINAL?!" That's it you ex-wife of a manwhore, die!"
"WHAT THE FUCK DID YOU SAY ABOUT HIM?!?" The enraged [Koishi] leaps off the catwalk towards the equally
furious Parsee who activates her chainsaw by slamming a fist down
onto one of the buttons.
The jealousy youkai leaps at the falling possessed mind reader and
swings her weapon only for it to pass through.
"Fucking-"
[Koishi] punches her repeatedly from behind, knocking the bridge
princess down to the floor.
"-illusion bullshit!" She curses while laying on her side.
"It is pretty bullshit, isn't it? That's why I love using this
body!"
Parsee attempts to stand up but is forced back down to the
floor by a kick to the gut from [Koishi], the blows hurting far
more than they should due to her injuries.
"AGH, fucking..." She tries to lift her chainsaw, ignoring the
pain.
"Nope!" [Koishi] playfully says while jumping up and down on her
arms before kicking her in the throat and vanishing.
[Koishi] instantly reappears in front of Parsee, standing over the
bridge princess with a sadistic expression on her face.
"I'm amazed that you still have a solid grip on your tree-
murdering
utility, must be due to one of Nitori Kawashiro's excellent
designs! I'd probably have to sever your hands to take it from you
with the Kappa Anti-Grab System and all that, which is exactly
what
I'm doing now!"
A blade that Parsee can't even see slams into the jealously
youkai's left wrist.
Parsee shrieks and attempts to kick [Koishi] only for her attack
to
once more pass through the possessed mind reader.
"YES, keep resisting, keep fighting, keep struggling! Don't give
up, you're only going to temporarily lose your hands and then
permanently lose your favorite weapon!"
"I-it's more than-AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!" Parsee screams as the blade
hits bone.
"More than a weapon? Ah, so you've fallen in love with your tree-
killing utility. Steamy youkai-chainsaw sex sounds delicious!"
"FUCK YOU!" Suddenly the blade is withdrawn from her left wrist
and
somehow the pain vanishes as well.
"So a chainsaw is better than me, then? That's how low you've
gotten, former wife of mine?" A new voice says.
Parsee turns her head towards the source of the voice.
A young brown-haired man.
Her ex-husband.
Parsee laughs.
"Nice try [Koishi], but my beloved...is right here!" Parsee pulls
out a small glass case from some compartment in her chainsaw.
Inside it are a pair of eyeballs. Suddenly the illusion vanishes, the pain in her left wrist
returns,
and Parsee hears a shriek from [Koishi].
Parsee turns her head towards the source and sees a crane
apparently holding something invisible in place a couple feet off
the ground.
"What the fuck? How did you..."
"
Unyu! You can fool the eyes but you can't fool technology,
specifically a thermal holographic scope!" Utsuho's voice says
from a speaker.
Parsee decides not to ask, puts the glass case with her ex-
husand's eyeballs back into the compartment, stands up, and
despite her nearly-severed left hand manages to lift up and swing
her chainsaw at the invisible yet immobilized mind reader.
The lower half of [Koishi]'s body falls to the floor and her upper
half, still held by the crane, becomes visible.
Not wasting a moment, Parsee grabs [Koishi]'s Third Eye and shoves
it into the blades of her chainsaw, ending the possessed mind
reader.
"G-goodbye again, Parsee Mizuhashi. I...hope our next meeting will
be-"
The bridge princess slices through [Koishi]'s head before kicking
the upper body hard enough for it to be knocked out of the crane's
grasp.
Parsee wasn't done.
Cut the fingers, cut the organs, cut the neck, cut the shoulders,
CUT CUT CUT CUT CUT CU-
"Ma'am, I'm completely sure that she's dead!" The voice of Medic
Bitch breaks Parsee out of her murderous trance.
"I know dipshit. Just getting this shit out of my system." Parsee
says to the now-regrouped sabotage team while continuing to slash
away at what is quickly becoming little more than a pile of
dismembered body parts.
"Ma'am, pardon me but if you keep doing that your left hand might
fall off."
"What the fuck ever. So, why isn't a single thing smashed the fuck
in?"
"Unyu, me and Evil Eye deleted all the designs for their art tool
stuff!"
"If we're done here then let's get the fuck out."
***
To the Dragon Palace you will send...
[X] Tenshi
[X] Hata-tan
[X] Messenger Togashi
[X] 10 Resistance Troops
[X] 1 Medic
The former leader of the Anti-Art Resistance Front remained silent
during the entire trip through the Gate and to the Dragon Palace,
which resembled a cross bewteen a stereotypical medieval castle
and a Shinto shrine.
Outside their destination, Messenger Togashi decides to speak up.
"Commander, why did you bring me along? I can't fight at all..."
With a stoic expression Tenshi roughly grabs Togashi before
forcefully French kissing him.
"Mmmph,whhtthhlllcmmmnder!"
Tenshi continues until Togashi manages to break out of her grip.
"Because I love you, Messenger Togashi. Now get moving!" The
former commander then abruptly punches her beloved in the chest.
"That is NOT how you show love!" Hata-tan shouts.
Tenshi ignores her and uses her blade to carve an entrance through
one of the walls, the opening leading them directly to a
staircase.
"Hatate and Togashi, go to the fifth floor and follow the signs to
the Council Room. Kill everybody inside. The rest of you hold
position. I'll take care of the sketchbook."
***
"So, why are we together again? I can't even fight."
"Dunno, I just like cutting things."
"Well we're here. Should I just wait outside?"
"Probably. No offense but you'd just get in the way."
"None taken, it's simply the truth."
"Lord Nai's eldest daughter Tenshi continues to be a problem. We
know the location of her base but he has forbid the Angelic Arts
Movement from attacking."
"How does he expect to make a new world if he can't even handle
his own family?"
"Speaking of his family, his other daughters all turned up dead
yesterday, cut into pieces."
"Most likely by their elder sister I assume?"
"Most likely."
"Enough is enough. I say that after Byakuren's speech we attack,
Lord Nai be damned."
"Agreed."
"Agreed."
"Agreed."
"Disagreed!"
"Who the hell are you?"
"Just a wrist-cutting girl."
***
"Hear those screams father? Those are the clan heads. Without them
you'll have no support amongst the people!"
"Indeed."
From behind a desk sat Lord Nai, who could be described as a male,
muscular version of Tenshi. His expression of pure disapproval was
currently directed at his oldest daughter, who was brandishing the
Sword of Hisou at him.
"You disappoint me Tenshi. Greatly."
"Oh yeah? Well fuck you and your expectations."
"Falling in love with Togashi is one thing, but constantly
stalking Togashi, breaking into his home, threatening and
assaulting any female he had contact with, up to and including his
very own mother, is another! Fuck me? No,
fuck you!"
"Good to know we're still a loving family you bastard. You
disappointed me to, with how easily duster-bitch brainwashed you
all."
"She was wearing a trench coat, not a duster. Brainwashed?
Centuries of perfect peace had drained us of all purpose. This may
be Heaven in name, but it's Hell in reality! Then that girl came
along and gave us a purpose!"
"You call drawing on each other a purpose? That's just
disgusting!"
"Disgusting? No, what's disgusting is THIS!"
Nai reaches under the desk, pulls out a long leash with a black
collar, and roughly throws it at his daughter.
Tenshi catches the leash and stares at it for several moments.
"My present to Togashi!"
"I had no idea my most beloved daughter was this much of a sick
pervert until three days ago."
"I'm no more perverted than what you and the rest of the freaks
call 'art'! Now where is it?"
"The sketchbook? Here!" Nai tosses a notebook at Tenshi, who
slices it in mid-air with her sword. The scattering pieces of it
quickly turn to ashes.
"And now for you."
Tenshi then promptly decapitates her father. "Useless old man...wait, where's Iku?"
***
"Say Admiral..."
"Yes Murasa?"
"Lately I've been thinking that...GET DOWN."
Murasa blocks an incoming bolt of electricity with her anchor.
"
***
"UNITE UN-"
Yuuka crushes the skull of Byakuren, finally ending the fight.
"Hah....my..my, she was...hah...quite tough~" The Flower Master of
the Four Seasons wipes a considerable amount of sweat off of her
bruised face.
"Hah,hah...that bitch...is finally dead." Mokou collapses to the
ground in exhaustion.
"...Hah,hah...tough as hell...
That loudass bitch Byakuren
was...tough, MEDIC KAZOTO!" Nue calls for the medic before
vomiting blood.
A half-minute later Kazoto walks out from behind some rubble.
"Sorry girls, had to take cover during the fight...WOAH!"
All three girls are covered in bruises and bloody wounds, with
parts of their clothes torn.
Kazoto shields his eyes upon noticing that Nue's breasts are
visible due to a large rip in her outfit.
"Worry not about deceny,
please tend our injuries,
hero medic Kazoto!" Nue chirps.
Kazato removes his hand from his eyes and begins examining the
wounds of the three.
"Woah momma, you girls got hit hard..."
"Just so you know...we don't need bandages..." Mokou informs him.
"If you say so..."
Disinfect everything, fix Nue's two bent tentacle wings, pull the
shard of glass lodged deep inside Yuuka's hip, pull the rebar out
of Mokou's back...
"Alright, that should be good enough."
"Thank you Mister Kazato." Yuuka states as she stands.
Mokou helps Nue to her feet.
"Come on poet girl, let's head back to my Master." Mokou tells the
unidentified youkai, who due to a crippled leg can't stand.
Mokou helps Nue up only to abruptly drop her.
"MASTER IS IN DANGER!" Mokou shouts before flying off.
Kazoto slowly helps Nue to her feet.
After saying "ow" seventeen times she smiles in thanks at the
medic's assistance.
"Come on now~"
***
Iku is sent flying into a wall by a whack from Murasa's anchor.
"Lowly groundwalker...I'll get you back for that later!" Iku
states before flying out through one of the warehouse's windows.
Mokou barges in through one of the doors
"Master, you alright?!"
"I'm fine Cubic Servant, Murasa fended off an attack from Iku."
"That's good..."
15 minutes later the resistance fighters and your Cubic Army have regrouped at the warehouse.
Tenshi moves towards you.
"Thanks for your help Leader Ray, we can take it from here. I understand from Hata-tan that you have other places to go, so I'll let you be on your way."
Mokou also walks up to you.
"Master, where are we going after the Kappa Town?"
