After finally reaching another room, a giant Vinka appeared before them. He looked incredibly powerful. Would the Phantoms be able to overcome another challenge?
Vinka Giant: "ROAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRR!"
(CRASH!)
(CRASH!)
(CRASH!)
Jeanne: "Ugh... A Vinka Giant... or just a Vinka?"
Nacht: "A Vinka... It probably woke up because of all the noise we made. Or maybe it's protecting the helmet."
Vinka Giant: "AAAARGH... ROAAAAAAARRRRR!"
It attacked them.
Vinka Giant: "ROAAAAAAAARRRRR!"
He swung his sword and slammed it into the ground.
The entire floor shook violently.
Vinka Giant: "HAHHHHH..."
Kisa: "Hahh... Ghost Bombs!"
She threw several ghosts at him.
Ghosts: "Bye... bye!"
(BOOM!)
Vinka Giant: "ROOOAAARRRR!"
Nacht: "Good... now it's my turn."
He transformed and raised his hand.
Nacht: "Good job, Rookie. Hold him down. Charlotte... Mona!"
Mona: "Yes, sir!"
Charlotte: "Leave it to us!"
Mona pulled one of her instruments from her fairy tale, The Town Musicians of Bremen.
Mona: "I summon you... Bob!"
Two pistols appeared, and she opened fire.
Charlotte: "Let's go!"
She removed her hat.
Charlotte: "Time... for... a circus!"
(Rockets!)
(FWEEEW!)
Charlotte: "Hehehe... Go!"
The rockets exploded in front of the giant's eyes, creating an intense flash of light.
Charlotte: "Now... Mona, Jeanne."
Mona: "Got it."
Jeanne: "Right."
They aimed and fired while the giant covered its eyes.
Jeanne: "Hahh."
Vinka Giant: "ROAAAAAARRRRRRRR!"
The giant slammed Diego into the ground.
(CRASH!)
Diego: "Urk!"
Nacht: "Ghhh... don't move... Hahhhh... Ichabod!"
Ichabod appeared and surrounded the monster with smoke.
Nacht: "Good... Corrupted Hands!"
Countless shadowy hands surrounded the giant.
Nacht: "Rookie... get up."
Diego: "Yeah..."
Nacht: "Use your full transformation."
Diego: "Okay."
He completely transformed into a gigantic wolf.
Diego: "WOOOOOOO!!! BIG... BAD WOLF!"
He bit the giant's arm.
Diego: "RORRRRRR!"
Vinka Giant: "RROAAARRRRR!"
The giant grabbed him by the back and threw him away.
Diego: "WOOF!"
(CRASH!)
Nacht: "...He turned him into a dog."
Vinka Giant: "ROAAAAAAAARRRR!"
The giant slammed the ground again.
(CRASH!)
Mona: "Watch out!"
Charlotte: "Woow!"
(CRASH!)
Nacht: "...This thing is really tough."
Jeanne: "Hahhh..."
Charlotte: "Okay, good!"
She pulled out her hat.
Several cannons emerged from it.
(BOOM!)
(BOOM!)
(CRASH!)
Kisa: "Huh... Ghhhhh... Ghost Hands!"
Two ghostly hands appeared and grabbed the giant.
Kisa: "He can't see them, but I can... grrr."
She made him stumble.
(CRASH!)
Nacht: "Nice one, Kisa. Now, Rookie."
Diego: "Okay."
He bit into the giant's stomach.
Vinka Giant: "ROAAAARRRRR!"
The giant repeatedly punched Diego.
Mona: "We need to help him."
They looked around.
Jeanne: "Ghhh... I've got it... His ears. We need to find a way to deafen him."
Mona: "Oh... Charlotte, do you have anything?"
Charlotte: "Unfortunately not... ghh."
Mona: "Good. Because I do."
She pulled something out.
A violin.
Mona: "Hahhh."
(BBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBB!!!)
The sound was so powerful that even the others covered their ears.
Vinka Giant: "ROARRR... AAAAARGHHHH!"
The giant lost control and crashed into a wall.
Then it threw a rock at Mona.
Mona: "Huh!"
Jeanne: "Ugh."
She leaped forward and carried Mona in her arms.
Mona: "Thank you."
Jeanne: "Of course."
They landed safely.
Mona: "Hah."
Charlotte: "Are you two okay?"
Mona: "Yeah."
Nacht: "This thing just won't stay down."
Diego: "...Nacht... I can't hold on much longer."
Nacht: "Hang in there, Rookie. Come on... we need to think."
Charlotte: "Hmmm."
Kisa: "Couldn't we just... use Hansel and Gretel again?"
Nacht: "Go ahead."
She summoned her fairy tale.
Kisa: "Hansel... Gretel..."
Both appeared.
Kisa: "I want you to deal with that thing."
Hansel: "As you command."
Gretel revealed a more human-like form, except she had two additional faces. In her ghostly form, it was difficult to see clearly.
Gretel: "SO... BELURASE..."
(DONG!)
A massive number of ghosts appeared and attacked the Vinka Giant.
Vinka Giant: "ROAAARRR... ROARRR!"
Nacht: "Now, Rookie."
Diego: "...I am not... a Rookie!"
He grabbed the giant's arm and hurled him away.
(CRASH!)
Diego: "Hahhh... hahhhh..."
Nacht: "Hahhh... hahhh..."
Kisa: "And?"
The monster lay there.
Dead.
Kisa: "Yeah... we did it."
Mona: "Hahh."
Charlotte: "Huh..."
Jeanne: "Hmm?... There it is. The helmet."
She ran toward it.
Jeanne: "Thank you... all of you..."
Diego: "Sure."
Kisa: "Tell your sister we said hello... and don't forget to come to our guild. You're a member now."
Jeanne: "Yeah... thank you..."
Nacht: "Hmph... Well then, let's head back."
They were about to leave when they heard something.
Vinka Giant: "Rorrr..."
Before closing its eyes forever, it swung its sword into the pillars.
(CRASH!)
Diego: "Damn it!"
Nacht: "Move! Get out of here!"
They ran.
(CRASH... CRASH...)
(A few minutes later)
Diego: "Hah... hahh... My God, that was way too close."
Nacht: "Yeah..."
Diego: "I almost shit my pants."
Mona: "Hh."
For a brief moment, there was silence.
Jeanne: "Hahhh... I still have the helmet. I need to leave quickly. Let's hurry."
Diego: "Yeah... let's stay together."
(Patch!)
(Patch!)
Sabrina: "Oh... well, look at that."
Nacht: "Ugh... you!"
Sabrina smiled maliciously.
Sabrina: "We meet again so soon... and looking so frightened... hmm?"
Recoleta: "So these are the five Cinder Tales... Come on, Jeanne. Give us the helmet."
Jeanne: "What... are you planning to do with it?"
Sabrina: "That's none of your business. Just hand over the helmet."
Jeanne: "Mmm."
She gave them the helmet, and they handed her the money.
Sabrina: "Here... that's 30,000 Grimms. Enjoy."
Recoleta: "Good work... Hmph. Let's go, Sabrina."
They walked away.
