Tragic Past: Rozen Maiden's Requiem
From far, one can see a crowd having fun in a garden of a Greek-styled building. Most of these people were anxiously waiting for the main character of the day. It was Charmeur's birthday and her father purposely held up a party for her. When both of the father and daughter came out to greet the people, they applauded to them. It has been a while since Charmeur last had a smile on her face.
That night, Charmeur's father had gone to see the King on some confidential business. On the other hand, Charmeur stayed in the house after a long tiring day. She was arranging the dolls and stuffed bears which she has received for her birthday on her cabinet. Charmeur was enjoying herself until a flower petal fell right in front of her. It was spring but there weren't any plants or flowers in her house. She turned to her back and was surprised to see one of her dolls walking towards her. Her skin was fair, her eyes charming blue, her lips red and her hair was shining yellow with the rose petals falling around her. She had the appearance that was striking enough to a living human being. The doll continued walking towards Charmeur and stopped in front of her.
Charmeur gathered all her guts. "Who are you?" she stammered.
"I am Rozen Maiden…., the fifth doll … named Shinku. You, what is your name?" the doll replied. It seemed that the doll have its own consciousness and identity.
"I…," Before Charmeur could finish answering, a loud explosion rocked out. She rushed out from her room. Shinku followed behind. Out of horror, Charmeur saw a terrorist fighting with her father. She shouted to her father and this interrupted his concentration. The terrorist fired a gun and the bullet shot him.
At that time, Shinku inquired Charmeur.
"Human being, do you want to save that man? If you want to save him pledge loyalty upon me and give your proof to this ring". Finishing her words, she lifted her left hand. A ring bearing a rose appeared on her ring finger.
Charmeur was in a pretty kettle of fish. She neither answered nor moved.
"I repeat again, human being. Do you swear or do you not swear?"
Charmeur took a glance at her father. She feared that her beloved father would die. Without wasting time, she proceeded kissing the rose ring.
