Shenanigans! Sefia gets ahold of Rashil's plot scepter and tranforms Kikuri into a light type! her personality's all happy and cheerful and bubbly... it's kind of unnerving, actually.
Imagine Sefia is once invited into Rashil's room because he wanted to study Sefia's swords. After a session of observation, Sefia is about to leave..."Thank you once again for allowing me to research the nature of your blades," the Thunder Mage says, facing a row of bookshelves. "It's no trouble." Sefia glances around the room in silent awe. There's lot of bookshelves of Rashil's research, some potions of various colors, and a rack of staves. There's only two staves... Rashil's, and a silver staff sporting a gem that shines in the color of the six elements. It's labeled "The Plot Staff."'That staff...' Sefia has flashbacks of the time Mega and Verica made a scene in the courtyard and sent out Lava, Falma, and Michele as Water Elementals. 'I wonder...'"I shall see you around, Sefia. Do take care," Rashil says, still not facing her. "Yes yes, see you." Sefia quickly takes the Plot Staff and leaves. In the training hall...Kikuri is tearing apart targets and impaling them repeatedly. On the sidelines, Zephyr watches and lightly applauses. "You really are quite the fighter, Kikuri," he compliments. The Goth Idol glares at him, almost angrily. He immediately quiets down. Just then, Sefia approaches. "Hello, Kikuri," she greets. "What is it, Miss Sparkle Blade?" Kikuri spits back. "Oh... I simply wanted to try something... Can you come with me?" Sefia leads Kikuri outside, to the side of the training hall where no one can see them. She then reveals the Plot Staff and points it at Kikuri. "What's-" Before she could react, a bright light envelops her. When it fades, her robe is a light blue color, and her hair is longer and her hair is changed to a very pale blond, and out of her face. In addition, her wings are softer, and more feathery. "How do you feel?" Sefia asks. "I... I feel amazing!" the new Light Elemental chimes. "Ah~ I never really saw the world as lovely as it is today...""Oh...kay..." The Staff really changed up Kikuri's attitude, for sure. "Hehehe!~ C'mon, Sefia! Why don't we have a girl's day out?" Before the Blade Queen could respond, she's forcefully pulled along by Kikuri, out of the estate.The Goth (Prep? Pop?) Idol drags Sefia out so they could skip along the lake shoreline (Sefia just walks), go shop for neat stuff at Elize's store, and just talk about how wonderful life is as usual. Hours later, they sit on a bench near the lake, with Kikuri humming cheerful tunes, and Sefia looking quite guilty and conflicted. "Kikuri..." Sefia starts, "do you...is your original self conscious?""Heh, this IS my original self!""No, I mean your gothic self... Is she there? Or have I replaced you?""Mm~ I don't remember being gothic... Wasn't I always like this?""No... I wondered if I could change you for the better, but I am thoroughly disturbed. That's saying something. Yet, I did enjoy today...""Sefia." She turns to find Rashil standing behind them, disapprovingly. "I believe you took something that belongs to me?"The Blade Queen looks down in shame as she holds up the Plot Staff. "Yes... My apologies...""You change her back.""Yes sir..." Sefia points the Staff at Kikuri. A dark light envelops her and the brighter version of the Goth Idol is no more. Kikuri glares at Sefia with much irritation. "I swear one of these days I'll kill you."Rashil then snatches the Staff away. "I should really lock this piece of trash up..."Sefia glances at Kikuri. "Do you...remember anything?""All of it. Frankly, I'm quite peeved. But after that day, I suppose I'll let you live a while longer. Hehe.~"
