19th Magic Bullet

[So, Yuna's teacher was on the list of erased people.  She knows he's not here anymore, but she's got some feelings she needs to get out, so have her yelling over the phones.]

All right, what the heck were you thinking, Negi-sensei?  Erasing yourself just because the town told you to?  That's not the sensei I know!  What happened to the Negi-sensei that never gives up on his friends and always fights to make the world a better place?  You've been through worse than this before!  And what's the Magic World gonna do without you to help save it?  What's Asuna gonna do without you?  I can't believe this.

[It's been a few days now, and Yuna's recollection of Negi is sort of fading in and out.  Without ever having met him, she would never have found out that her parents were mages or that she had the talent for it herself.  This makes for some rather awkward magic practice out on the front lawn of her house.]

Practe bigi nar!  Ardes...

[She stops for a moment, right in the middle of the beginner's incantation, and just stares at the wand she was waving around.]

Haha, what am I doing with this stick?  Playing wizard or something?

[Later on, folks will be able to catch her screaming at this flaming stick she's suddenly holding as her memories of Negi wink out right after successfully completing the spell.]

Aaaaaaaaaahhhh!  What the heck!

[Action; outside 2237 Stevens; December 22nd]

[Anyone passing by Yuna's house today will find her hanging around outside the house, all bundled up and trying to beat the cold.  She seems to be spending a lot of her time staring at a stylized playing card in her hand with a puzzled look on her face.]

I don't remember having this taken... was this from one of those new photo booths in the shopping district back home?

I guess you could call them that. There's been tales of legendary warriors known as Precure throughout the ages.

[gonnamarrydaddy.livejournal.com]

Oh, so they're more like knights, then?

[tsunmuse.livejournal.com]

Yeah I guess you can call them knights.

[gonnamarrydaddy.livejournal.com]

Sounds pretty cool! Have you ever met one?

[tsunmuse.livejournal.com]

There's two in our town; Cure Melody and Cure Rhythm. I haven't actually met them before.

[gonnamarrydaddy.livejournal.com]

Melody and Rhythm? Do they have a rock band on the side or something?

[tsunmuse.livejournal.com]

Their battles and themes are centered around music. Thus the names.

[gonnamarrydaddy.livejournal.com]

Oh! That actually sounds pretty cool. What are their attacks called? Have you ever seen them?

[tsunmuse.livejournal.com]

Well I've seen one, the Precure Passionato Harmony which is a massive blast of purifying light. And I think Melody has a Miracle Belltier which is a magic wand kind of thing that allows her to perform the Tone Ring attack.

Yeah I've seen them. Melody is clad in pink and Rhythm is in all white.

[gonnamarrydaddy.livejournal.com]

So are you like friends with them or something? Sounds like you know a lot about their moves and stuff.

[tsunmuse.livejournal.com]

I've never spoken with them, or met them. I've just watched from afar, outside of the Song of Sorrow's area of effect radius.

[gonnamarrydaddy.livejournal.com]

Song of Sorrow, huh? Is that some kind of magic barrier they use to keep regular people from getting hurt while they fight the bad guys?

[tsunmuse.livejournal.com]

No. The Song of Sorrow, makes everyone within range unable to move, burdened with sadness and sorrow. The Precure fight to keep it from being used.

[gonnamarrydaddy.livejournal.com]

Ohhhhhh. Yeah, I thought it sounded more like a bad guy type thing.

[tsunmuse.livejournal.com]

It's a very bad guy type of thing.

[gonnamarrydaddy.livejournal.com]

I wish we had that kind of stuff where I'm from. It would be just like living in an anime or something!

[Looks like she's forgotten magic exists in her world again.]

[tsunmuse.livejournal.com]

Weren't you just playing with a magic wand a second ago...?

[gonnamarrydaddy.livejournal.com]

Was I? Why would I be doing that?

[tsunmuse.livejournal.com]

Maybe you were trying to remember something.

[gonnamarrydaddy.livejournal.com]

You think so?

[tsunmuse.livejournal.com]

It's the most logical thing for you to do. When you forget something you try to remember it.

[gonnamarrydaddy.livejournal.com]

Huh... so I wonder what it was.

[tsunmuse.livejournal.com]

Give it another try?

[gonnamarrydaddy.livejournal.com]

[Yuna blinks, holding the wand out and staring at it.]

[tsunmuse.livejournal.com]

You... have absolutely no idea what you were doing just then?
