Manga mod on 2/2

The (small girl?) lead them onto a water plan on the edge of the hill.

The party of three (adventures?) stand in front of suspicious trio in capes, who clearly act like a guards in front of the gate. Like a members of sect protecting the entrance to they secret lair/ den. 

Gura say to the team (That she got this.) and she step in front of them to challenge the trio. After taking a deep breath she put herself into a (chuuni)byoo mod. [Chūnibyō, is a Japanese colloquial term typically used to describe early teens who have grandiose delusions, who desperately want to stand out, and who have convinced themselves that they have hidden knowledge or secret powers.] Then in a (protagonist entry speech) stance she launch a theatrical speech of high importance. "The time has finally come!! We must unleash the hidden power, that lies dormant within our bellowed priestess. The world calling for it. But first! Let me present the tribute." She take the shopping bags and put all items from it down on the table. No matter how much anyone look at them, they were a cooking ingredients for sweets. She make a power stance and spoke about grand revealing. "Behold! Unbaked cookie~es."

The group in capes was moved to the tears. After they exchanged a glances and nodes, they give them a one-day free-pass card. Then they take the ingredients and step aside to let the party to pass the entrance, while saluting to them.

Mori and Takanashi dint said a word with an expression: (Ugh! I don't touching that!)

.

.

The interior of water plant, to much reminded a RPG dungeon in steam-punk settings. But the free-pass card was really handy.

Eventually, they reached a tunnel passage way, that looks like a service or maintenance corridor, under the mountain. But they were instantly be able to recognize in a distance, a meter tall cylindrical trash can siting lonely near the wall. Only after a few more steps, they were able to notice a single door in the wall that was next to the trash can.

Gura, leading the group skillfully as if it was not her first visit, stop the party good twenty meters away from that duo and let them wait for like a minute. It nearly look like if she was expecting a trap in front of the entrance onto the boss room.

As if it was a scripted event; that door opened out and a (tentacles?) reached out from inside. They bring out, toward the can a whole bunch of fully packed trash bags. As expected the tentacles opened the lid on the trashcan and tried to toss all the trash bags into it. But, there was to many of them and they were all like half size of the poor trash container. So there was no way they will fit in and the lid will close. So a magical circle shows around that trashcan. All the bags imploded inside, as if all contest in them was cursed in pressure press and all air got suck out. Then those small balls finally fall inside and the lid was closed. At final step, those tentacles returned inside and close the doors behind themselves.

The Shark suggested: "Lets give her a few more minutes." And the rest of the party make noises of agreement.

.

So, after a few extra minutes of waiting, they approached the boss room door. They actually stop like two meter away, but they still were able to heard a noises of hasty emergency room cleaning procedure. They even was able to hear the inhabitant panicking. "Oh no! Cappy!! That's not a food!"

Concept draft Gura approached the door, and start knocking on the door. "Hey Ina, are you home?" She ignored the panicked 'Kia' lady shriek from inside. Then she start loudly knocking, acting as if her friend was a heavy sleeper. "HEY Ina~a! Wake u~up!" From inside comes noises of moving stuff around. So Shark acted like she is inpatient and start banging on the door, as if she thought that she was not heard because of the all noises inside. From second to second she was becoming more animal-istic in her attempts to get noticed.

The duo standing back thoughts a scene of monkey climbing on metal door with iron bar window. That monkey then starts to shake the entire door violently screaming very loudly.

.

In a moment there was "I coming!" from inside.

The duo in back was expecting that the door will slam (open out) with such force, that the Shark will fly to the other wall and slap the wall with a fat mark. Or that the door will open so fast that it will do an 180 degree turn, hit the wall and turn the girl into a wall ornament or other type of wall panting.

But Gawr know better and actually got down from the door and hop walk toward the duo on side.

.

The door opened normally, slowly and with care not to hit anyone who will stand behind them. An Ina'nis Ninomae slowly show out having a smile of expectation. But a hint of desperation show on that face when nobody was in front of that entrance. She pour out, look around and when she saw the trio, her face beamed up with a happiness. She was willing to jump out from the entrance, but some mysterious power prevent her feet to make that step out, as if she play a game where the floor on the corridor was a lava.

Anyway she invited the trio in.

.

As they walk in an observe the very clean and girly room of educated student and aspiring artist, they look surprised how lady lake the room was. As if a princess was living here.

The only violation on a perfect 10/10 room beauty was this small storeroom or pantry room, behind sturdy door, which one leaked a dark aura. No!, the door look like they were slowly sinking into the pool of darkness, or dark emotions, or were falling into abyss in subspace.

The host told them with a straight face to (Not worry about that!) and (Don't go near them!) and (Newer open them!).

The library section with her neat book shelf look so pro, that one can expect that by pressing a hidden switch a secret second layer will unfold itself to the reader.

Quite soon, the room look like a bunch of friend gathered on single place and even bring a bunch of food so they can have a dinner party. Five character were siting on fluffy carpet around one short round table for tea, cookies or such. Mori was going through the data in file folder from manager getting everybody on the same pace. Its look more like a brainstorming study session on group project.

Then someone mentioned that they still missing a fifth member of the team. That was weird because there was fifth of them, who was siting around the table. So they went with old good counting the present heads. And they went in circle. First they focus fall on Calliope Mori, the leader. Then turn on Kiara Takanashi, the food provider. Next was Gura Gawr, as concept draft. Fourth was Ina'nis Ninomae, the house owner. And the fifth one was Cappy the chilling Capybara aka Happy Cappy.

All four of them shouted the name (Cappy?!!). Even if the fact was put on table and the cover blown up, Cappy the chilling rodent, keeps its chill hippo (hippie?) hamster expression and continue to devour a blade of grass as some cool smooth criminal.

The quartet redirect they attention to the sheet with the data about the fifth team member and where to found it.

.

.

After, skipping a half of the story arc; later…

.

.

The party of quartet reached an (old castle?) or mansion. The room they entered was wide and had tall ceiling. The big windows suggest that this was a living room of some eccentric genius engineer, that was turned onto a work-shop on some mad science project or mechanism.

Mori step forward. As if she was on famous court show: She shot forward her pointing finger at the person on other side in (Objection!!) gesture. And she shout. "Operative Watson!! We finally found you!! There is nowhere you can hide now!"

The Watson in lab coat was fully preoccupied working on some big machine, mechanism, or construct. When she heard that entry line she hiccup and swear back. "Fag!! How the heck you get here?! This is an off limit area!"

That reply ignited a discussion when Takanashi actually think about it. "Shes right, how we get here? I mean, its has been a half of story arc we spend on it. And now, without an explanation, we are here."

Without any worry Ninomae drop on the table of discussion the reason of (Why?). "We were forced to cut the story length from the budgeting reasons."

Still as concept art Gawr was full of sarcasm. "Surely, that decision will not get back at us in later stage of the story, and it will not bite us badly."

.

Mori move into her battle stance. "Enough of the pleasantry! Watson, we come to stop this madness!"

But Watson urgently plead back. "You don't understand! I trying to fix this mess! Just trust me!"

.

As if it was a lot of fate a warning system light bulb lighted up on that machine and an unpleasant alarm sounded onto the room. It was a grim indicator that the time limit approaching.

Ina and Gura was already standing next to window on opposite side to the machine, glaring out. Then Gawr turn into the room shouting the warning. "Its coming!!"

Takanashi standing in the room school them. "Girls! A half of story arc!… The audience don't even know, what is coming."

But at this point even Ninomae dint waste time as she walk towards Takanashi to take a defense stand. "No need for explanation! The time has come! Ame, Calli! Now or never! The decision is on the two of you."

Watson was in panic, hasty working on the machine. "No!... No, no, no!... I was on time!... I am on time!... I can fix it!... I will fix it!... I am fixing it!… TRUST ME!!"

There was at last one person that dint bet on that pleading. Mori, menacingly holding a death scythe, was walking with firm step toward the engineer's back. Every her step was like a tick on pendulum, ticking off the life that was left on Watson sand glass of life.

.

Then in a scene where from front we watching onto Watson sweated up face. She faced the operation panel of the machine and she pulled a big lever. The machine activate and a something like (time bauble?) start to spread from it toward the entire room. It froze that girl in lab-coat staring at the machine with (Please!! Work!!!) expression.

Mori tower up behind that girl back and rise up her scythe to swing and take both Watson ans the machine out of the picture. The spreading bauble, time froze her with her eyes pure white staring down on her pray ready to release the swing.

As we focusing on the traveling time bauble, a little far we can see on the each side of Mori, the duo Takanashi and Ninomae in defense positions as they backing toward the machine, but still facing the window on opposite side of the room. One can think they were holding some invisible barrier or technique. They time froze as they were like that.

Then there was concept drawing Gawr, making a power stance right in front of the window. We don't know if the technique she used had any effect, but the window exploded inside. As if the house was hit by an epic level of tide way and all that water now pouring in through that single hole in the ship hull. The water wall sweep away that Shark and as the time bauble reached the tide way, it time froze that wave towering above the duo of defenders, ready to swallow them. And Gura had a first seat on that ride as she was pushed back by the very front of that wave that sweep her from her feet high up.

.

Ignoring the others windows, it really look like the time has fully stooped and the calamity was frozen in place. On second glance, this scene look like a picture recorded on painting frame: A water tank exploded tearing a hole in its wall. Gura got washed away as she fail to hold the valve. Ina with Kiara was watching as escaping water jump on them. Then Calli was enough of all rising her scythe on panicked Amelia operating the water system, failing to decrease the pressure in pipes. All before the escaped water will fill the control room.

.

Then the second calamity was arrived.

A (real?) water wave showed itself in the scene when she tore apart the room wall like it was just a picture painted on paper. It literally make a hole on it as the water steam pierce the most backed image. Then it wide to all sides.

Second to destroy was the time frozen picture of the tide way with Gura on it. It tear it apart like a poorly made dam that shall hold the water levels in check.

Third one to shred was the duo of defending girls that was washed to the sides. They images were torn sideways by the share force of water stream.

Next one was Mori as it was crushed down by the weight of the water that was poured on the paper image.

Then the calamity hit Watson and this time it was the final and most upwards layer of the scene. So the (real water?) dint pierce it, but soaked it wet. Incoming water filled the room full. The final layer was soaked to the point, that the entire scene, second by second, turned into ink that dissolved into water, and as a black clouds was taken away.

Every single piece of this scene was destroyed by water that seemed like a wast deeps under the ocean level. The water was the only thing that was seen in all direction.

To this lonely serenity come a single gasp for air escaping a certain girl mount… No! It was a single release of air in form of bunch of air baubles into a water from the lungs of fully submerged person. And those baubles went up, toward the distant ocean surface, following a hint of light from above.

Then through the water… someone… called certain someone name...
