In the town of Tuskani, it was a terrible day. People were depmgsed and it was certainly that another one of those monsters was the cause. It was of course 'unexplained' according to the news, but thanks to the strange lion plush that started following her, Xylia knew better.
She took off in her shorts and t-shirt with the rainbow edges and the huge number '01' in rainbow on the back, toward the mall where depmgsed people were gathering in high numbers.

"Gotta find the source. Where is it hiding this time!? Can't they ever hide in plain sight?"

"You're getting much faster at finding them Xylia, It takes most girls a long while to hone their instincts." The stuffed lion companion comments from your shoulder.
You arrive at the mall, and move past a few mopey people. The whole area feel dark, it smells like heavy water, and even the stomg seem gloomy. At the center of the mall where the carousel is you see a total lack of anyone, and the air feels its thickest here. There is something in particular wrong with the unicorns available to ride, as if they were covered in a permanent shade.
The lion on your shoulder stands on your head and makes a motion with his arms, a portal into the darkness appears and he falls down in front of you declaring. "There, now you can get at it!"

You descend into the darkness and appear in what looks like a twisted fair grounds. There are images of carts and cotton candy on the strangely curving ground, the air smells like water, and your ears are assaulted by a neighing sound.
You slowly realize that this nightmare is a circle itself allowing you and the youma to move from one end to another fluidly.

"At least some of these guys have good ideas about their playing field."
I'll turn to the Little Lion.

"That's good remember your motivation!"
The neighing sound gets a little louder and you see the shadow of a unicorn, it looks just like one from the carousel, but much larger, and totally black with orange sparks coming off its horn.

You hit the unicorn with your bat, its sparks negate part of the blow but it looks pretty mad.
It charges as its attack, taking advantage of its round room to get actually gallop away from you and wind up at your side, mostly the orange static gets you 5 damage

"Not bad, though I really should go to practice more if I didn't even hit you." I sigh, I really shouldn't be cutting as much as I do.
Charge at them and prepare to use some magic to stop the charges. I'll use some of the colors from the fairgrounds to make rainbow colored hurdles for the horse to avoid.
This would be Heart Magice, 2d6+7, correct?

You make hurdles of rainbow fence and hay appear out of the ground, the unicorns get delayed by having to jump over them and the real one even trips. The fake one is still coming after you this turn, for a dead on charge attack!
would you like to make a defense challenge?

You smash your bat into the horn and a ripple of shattering runs through it as it crumbles like a slice of glass.
The real unicorn looks angered by this and finally makes its way around you hurdles to try an attack, it only grazes you for one damage.

You throw a ball up and hit it reppeatedly as it magically replicates and barrages the unicorn with baseballs.
A few of the balls get blocked by the static aura, but you still land a good amount of hits. The unicorn looks staggered and attempts to hit you with a magical beam from its horn.. It hits your foot which is enough to really sting and kind of piss you off. 4 damage.

You pretend the red and white stripes of the floor are a racing track and take off at the speed of light, leaving rainbows as a flaming trail behind you. You kick the horn in a vaulting leap and the black unicorn cracks, its lightning sparking and digging large orange lines into the floor. Soon the whole area is covered in them, and the unicorn itself whinnies and explodes into orange sparks which bounce harmlessly around, the floor crumbles.
You find yourself back in the mall next to the carousal, which looks fine, bright colored unicorns lining its floor for kids to ride on. The portal is totally gone, and soft happy music plays from the speakers.
The small lion appears next to you as usual and pmgents a black crystal to you. "Here, it just had one seed."
You feel oddly emotional after the whole thing.. it made you think of your friends Emiri and Uma and what they must be doing now..

You find Emiri in the library studying up for the next big math test. Her hair is a bit of a mess as if she'd be scratching her head while studying and messed it up. She greets you with an energetic wave and a sniffle. "Xylia! You decided to come study too? I saved you a seat just in case." Actually the whole table is empty right now aside from her books and notes.

Its not all that hard once you look logically at it, plus seeing a few problems written out really helped.

Before you know it you've done all the questions and library is close to closing.
"Wow, thanks for helping Xylia, I'd have been lost without those notes you copied down!"

Not this time it seems! You head over to the noodle place, which has some kind of name that's a pun with fox and rice, the owner greets you warmly. "Hello girls, back late from studying again?"
"Yea, we have a test soon." Erimi replies wit a sniffle.
The menu is all different kinds of 'ramen' and new ones every month too. This month the new ramen is a spicy pork ramen. Of course there are the old recipes, the chicken, the veggie mix, the salmon, and the spicy beef are all solid choices.

Anyways, I can't rag on her too much. They're still boys, and they still like sports. It feels nice when they cheer us on. You should come see us!"
