You took your time after that walking about the Shrine to see all these exotic sights one last time. Besides, you always wanted to go on a trip to Asia in real life, but being a New Yorker, the chances for that were always slim, every year. You figured that your time in Gensokyo would have to do for scratching that itch for now. All these genuine Shinto statues and the old Japanese architecture, stuff was unique. And standing under the huge red Torii that towered over everything? It was magical.
For once you didn't feel at danger in walking around the edge of the woods that surrounded the Shrine, where as normally you were afraid of the woods because of wild animals and such. And you know that sounds funny coming from a city boy like yourself, but summer camp gave you multiple new phobias. And also, your sense of adventure and wanting to see what was behind the Shrine was currently overriding those phobias as well.
Besides, it was well lit back there for you to see-
<span class="mu-i">"Yeah! Yeah! I swear, that's what I saw, just before the others went after that floating fluff tuft!"</span>
...almost a bit too well lit.
You stepped up quietly, knowing that voice well after the last encounter with Rumia. Could it really be? You take a peek around a corner, and see her. Clownpiece! That devilish little Fairy with the torch that was trying to trick you when you couldn't see her. She was behind the Hakurei Shrine, talking at the edge of the woods, trying her best to remain hidden and out of sight. Just what was she up to...?
<span class="mu-r">"Intriguing... a human from the mortal world, scattered into this one. Then, it's just like the tip off I received talked about. I suppose I have no choice but to trust them a little better from now on."</span>
<span class="mu-i">"Y-Yeah, that Rumia wasn't no kidder, Lady H'! Whaddya' want meeeee to do about it from now on? You have some new orders for me?"</span>
<span class="mu-r">"Hmm... Well, I guess you could keep an eye on them from now on while I'm away tending to matters with Hell, my little lampad. After all, I'm sure they won't stay away for very long."</span>
There was another voice with Clownpiece. A voice that made you get a shiver down your spine. The voice of a lady who sounded very serious... you didn't know what it was, this voice made you frown, in fright...
Just who could that be speaking with Clownpiece at this time of night, this far behind the Hakurei Shrine? Who was this person ordering Clownpiece to survey you? They mentioned 'Hell'. Oh god, you feel your guts clench. Pick up the phone because you fucking called it! You knew it! You just knew you were going to find out that literal Hell itself exists! Oh god, you took all the bible studies at a young age for granted, you were so stupid!
But, who is it? Who is this person that wants to keep tabs on you?! Is it the secret god that kidnapped you? Well, they didn't act like it... but, it was worth taking a look.
"Here goes nothing..." You whisper to yourself.
You peek around the corner.
