Triple trouble

At the lake in the southern woods, Shalala and Harajuku appeared ready to sneeze, but stopped just before doing so. 

"Huh, it went away. What does that mean?" Harajuku grumbled. 

"Maybe it means someone was thinking shit about us, but didn't say it," Shalala shrugged. 

"Like, telepathically?" 

"Naw, that's technically talking, just from mind to mind." 

"And what does people talking about you have anything to do with your sneezes?" Bisento glared as she smacked aside some tree branches. 

"What's with the mood? Your sister make babies with her girlfriend or something?" Harajuku snickered. 

Slice! 

Harajuku and Shalala frowned as they watched the tree Bisento was standing next to fall to the ground. 

"I liked the view of that you know," Shalala growled as Bisento took a seat on the newly formed stump. 

"We've got issues. An army of dwarves suddenly appeared in the city out of nowhere," Bisento glared. 

"Huh? No way. There's no way they could tunnel all the way from their city to here. Even if they did, how small are their mine carts again?" 

"It appears they came from the human's flying vehicle." 

"Flying... THEY TOOK A PLANE!?" Harajuku and Shalala shouted simultaneously. 

"You know what that is?"

"Duh, we flew on that shit before across the country. Loved the peanuts they served. Makes me wanna fly again, maybe get first class," Shalala smiled. 

"Yeah, we didn't spend all that shit on those drugs we overdosed on, we could've flown first class somewhere. I thought we'd never see a plane again, but that city had a little airport hiding in it. But... Where would we even fly to?" Harajuku asked. 

"Eh, we fly it around in circles with our wind magic or something." 

"Just do something about the dwarves. If they're there, we can't takeover the city," Bisento glared. 

"Maybe later, I still wanna read some chapters," Shalala shrugged as she held up a manga volume. 

"I wanna eat in the lake. Have someone else handle it," Harajuku scoffed as she waded back into the lake. 

Bisento scowled and shook her head. "I'm powerless here. Sister is at least unrecognizable in her humiliated state, but if I'm recognized, everything falls apart. The humans will turn on us, and sister might even be killed. I'd never forgive myself if that happened." 

"And there's no one else that can help? How about Kirikatta, or is she still MIA?" 

"As if she's reliable. I bet she's already shaved her head and married a human woman."

"You ship her with girls? Based."

"Um, what?"

...

"ACHOO! Ugh, am I getting sick too?" Kirikatta groaned as she laid on the floor of Maruki's apartment. 

Having depleted Maruki's entire food supply 24 hours prior, Kirikatta was now hungry and cranky. Maruki still hadn't woken up, with his loud snoring indicating he was at least still alive. More than ever, Kirikatta wanted to kill him, but lacked the energy to do so. 

"Need something... Water? I saw water in a bowl... Ugh, I can't go all the way there," Kirikatta groaned as she wearily rose to her feet. 

By pure chance, she turned on the sink faucet as she was wobbling around, and upon hearing and seeing running water, instantly began slurping it up until she was full. 

"To think the human had a well in his house. Perhaps flooding him would rouse him," she thought as she plugged the sink with a stopper. 

However, the water suddenly turned off. Unknown to Kirikatta, Maruki was overdue on his water bill and as such, today was the day the landlord finally decided to cut off his water. 

"UGH! I'm sick of waiting around! WAKE UP!" Kirikatta shouted as she began stomping around on the floor. 

As she did, she stepped on the TV remote, turning the TV on. 

"Breaking news! Our city is welcoming a delegation of dwarves!" Erika declared. 

A dark and furious look overtook Kirikatta's face. "Dwarves? Dwarves here?" 

"Ngh? Whuzzat?" Maruki mumbled as he groggily awoke. 

Kirikatta's ear twitched, but she didn't bother turning around as she shot a series of slashes towards Maruki, slicing him and his bed to bits. She then smashed through the window and landed down on the street below, her eyes dyed a furious red giving her a more demonic look. 

"Little mud midgets... I'm going to kill all of them!" Kirikatta fumed in her mind as she leaped high into the air. 

...

Back at the lake, everyone suddenly went on guard as they heard the sound of something cutting through the air. Looking up, they noticed what appeared to be a boomerang flying above the waterfall. Bisento went on guard as the boomerang began flying towards her, however it flew completely over her and was caught by something leaping out of the brush behind her. 

"What's this about needin' a digger?" a male voice snickered, putting all the elves on guard. 

The voice belonged to the creature that had caught the boomerang and landed before everyone. He looked just like a large kangaroo, but had sharp pointy teeth like a piranha and was clad in a feathered akubra and a sleeveless vest. This was Piranharoo, a top minion of the infamous warlock, Hougen the fulguriter. He was a powerful monster known for his powerful kicks and carnivorous appetite that would lead to many being stripped to bones before him. 

Though Harajuku and Shalala could probably defeat him with ease should they team up, one person they could not beat was Hougen himself. They had tried, but after numerous failures and barely escaping with their lives, they decided it was best to just avoid the risk of angering him further, thus, they refrained from attacking the likes of his favorites like Piranharoo. As a result, Piranharoo had managed to take complete control of the Aarlord tribe, becoming it's de-facto leader. 

"I heard a human city's sprung up in the outback, now they got dwarves there with em?" Piranharoo grinned as he twiddled his boomerang in his paw. 

"Apparently they were led there due to the arrival of a diplomat from Evendale," Bisento trembled. 

"Diplomats now. And the humans got one too?" 

"I believe they do. I didn't get a good look at her, but I believe her name is Nagako." 

"A sheila, huh? Interesting. She got meat on her norks?" 

Bisento didn't know, but if lying would both get Piranharoo out of her sights and prompt him to attack the city, she'd lengthen her nose to the stratosphere. "Yes, they're massive. Her skin is also smooth and succulent, perfect for your tastes." 

"You got a good memory after all. Might as well pop in n' greet the neighbors, tell em who's garden view they messed up n' better be careful of pissing off more," Piranharoo grinned as he leaped off into air at breakneck speed, lightning crackling out of his feet as he flew. 

"Hmm, maybe we should try and book a trip before fuzzball levels the place," Shalala scowled as she closed her book.

"Thought you still had stuff to read," Harajuku smirked as she crushed a juice box in her hand. 

"This stuff's all in Japanese. English is the only thing I know aside from elf." 

And with that, the two flew off towards town. 

Now alone, Bisento collapsed to the ground and clutched her heart, breathing heavily as sweat ran down her face. "I've done it now. With that fuzzball en route, I have no doubt things will make their way to Hougen himself. And if he so decrees, the town will be destroyed. It may lead to everything being wiped away, but if that's what it'll take to get you back, sister, it's worth forgoing all the wealth and goods the city has." 

...

In the woods to the east of the town, a mysterious group of humanoid figures peered out at the wooden fence and grazing cows before them. 

"Those look like food, but what of the buildings? Elves?" one of the figures asked. 

"Nay. I spot a human. Tis been eternity since we've last seen one. Shall we introduce ourselves, ladies?" the leader of the group smiled as she cracked her knuckles.
