Notes: I figured I'd get this plot bunny up and running while I still had it. These are going to be set in between or after the Bayonetta games.

The Bayonetta series is by SEGA and Platinum Games.

While Bayonetta was looking at a book in her shared living quarters with Jeanne, she heard another rustle of a page when she turned it a second later. Looking around, she found nothing and resumed reading.

It happened again when she turned the page a second time. She closed the book before standing up.

"This is a perplexing situation," she began.

"This is a perplexing situation," two young voices, one male and one female, spoke up.

"It's like I'm in a dank cave," Bayonetta described.

"It's like I'm in a dank cave," the voices repeated.

"And another thing."

"And another thing."

"I hear voices."

Silence. She began to stroll around the room.

"And sometimes the echo is incorrect."

"And sometimes the echo..."

"This is the first time hearing-!"

"Quiet!"

Bayonetta looked around, eventually finding Enzo's children behind the couch. She decided not to reveal herself just yet when she heard their childish giggles. Counting down to herself in her head, she waited until one to speak again.

"And sometimes it says what I'm going to say before I say it," she added.

"And sometimes it says what I'm going-!"

"There you are!" Bayonetta exclaimed.

The mischievous duo let out their laughter while running off. Bayonetta just sighed.

"When is Enzo coming back?" she asked with slight irritation, looking at the clock. She was dragged into babysitting Ed and Edna a few hours ago while he did some shopping and promised to be back by three 'o clock. It was three fifteen right now.
