Hello everyone! SmashBroPlusB here, just saying that it feels SO GOOD to be writing again after my (unannounced) hiatus. This is my first Touhou work, so don't shout at me if some characters are out-of-character (even though I play IN and PoFV everyday, LOL). Shameless plug: check out my other story, PK Starstorm, which is still alive. Super Smash Adventure has been postponed... sorry guys.

Chapter 1: We Are Now Officially OPEN.

"Oh, poop. I almost forgot the disclaimer. Hold on a second." A Gim (yes, the helper from Kirby Superstar Ultra) looked away from his blue Nintendo DS for a second. "REIIIIIIIIIIIIMUUUUUU!!!" he shouted. A beautiful, gorgeous, and overall good-looking Reimu Hakurei walked into the room. (If you don't know who Reimu is, then screw you. You shouldn't be reading a freaking Touhou fan fiction!) "Hey Reimu, can you be a dear and say the disclaimer?" the Gim said. "That's all you called me for?" Reimu said with a little anger in her voice. The Gim obliviously replied, "Yeah, that's the idea."

"Fine... SmashBroPlusB does not own Touhou Project or any of its characters, locations, games, or any of its affiliated ideas. If he did, I'd be getting paid a lot more..." "Hey! At least I'm paying you for your involuntary appearance in this story!" the Gim quipped. "Whatever." Reimu rolled her eyes and continued: "SmashBroPlusB does own this story, its storyline, and his OC, SmashBroPlusB. Well, that name sure is original. Use of this story in any way, shape, or form is strictly PROHIBITED and SmashBroPlusB is willing to take repercussive action. This guy knows Marisa, and he will get her to use Master Spark on your ass. There."

"Thank you so much, Reimu. By the way, did I tell you how good you look today?" the Gim stated. Reimu looked at the DS screen. "I think you already recorded it," she smirked. SmashBroPlusB saw the text on the handheld. "Oh... crap. Screw you, Fan Fiction Super Writer!"

Reimu sweatdropped in an anime-style fashion. "Okay... anyway, back to the story!" Reimu picked up a picture of the next scene and held it in the camera's view. Just like in an American cartoon, the scene started animating, creating a smooth transition.

It was morning. The sun had just risen. The Forest Of Magic was still quiet. Dew drops glistened on the flowering plants. A grey-haired man who appeared to be in his thirties rose from his bed. Quickly, he got dressed, put on his glasses, and started to work.

He swept the floor, wiped the windows, straightened the curtains, and polished the shelves. The clock was dusted, the money in the register was counted, and everything for sale was neatly organized. Finally, a sign was put in the window that read "We're open, so come on in!"

The man opened the door and went outside, carrying a ladder. He climbed up to the roof and hung a long sheet of paper across the front side of the house-shaped building. The caption "Kourindou's Grand Re-Opening" was brightly painted in red on the bright banner.

As the man came down the ladder, a young-looking girl flew up to the store, riding a wooden broomstick. She bore yellow hair and a black dress. A black witch's hat was on her head. Both the dress and the head featured proud white ribbons. A small blue ribbon was also tied near the end of her broomstick. "Damn, it's so early." The blonde female then yawned. "Why did I volunteer for this, ze?"

"Never mind, it's the fact you showed up that counts." The grey-haired man went in the shop with the ladder, then came back out with a pile of papers in its place. "I want you to take these flyers and distribute them to Gensokyo's residents. Please be quick about it, as well." He handed the stack to the blonde. She took the leaflets and securely fastened them to the broomstick with the blue ribbon.

"You owe me for this big time, Rinnosuke." She kicked off with her broomstick and flew away.

The man walked back into his store Kourindou, smiling. "My, my, Marisa hasn't changed at all," he noted.

So, what did you think? Yeah, it's a bit boring, and yes, it's TOO FREAKING SHORT, but it's an introduction. What do you expect? The next story will introduce A LOT more characters, so brush up on your Touhou.
