I don't own any characters in this story, they all belong to ZUN. Except a few cameo appearances, but that's for another chapter. Anyway, hope you enjoy reading this!

I...I...what happened? Where's the mistress? Is she okay? What about the sister?

I couldn't see very well, but it looked like one of two doors were knocked to the ground, I could see a throne but...oh, so this was the mistress's throne room. But what happened? I felt very weak, as if I had been fighting someone, looks like my dress is a bit tattered. I slowly stood up, stumbling a bit though.

Why am I so tired?

My eyes were clearing up, I could see some broken dishes on the ground.

Is it just me, or does the mansion seem, a little empty? Oh! What am I standing here for!

I perked up a bit and started out through the broken door. I walked through the scarlet hallway, passing through many doors. I came across a window and peeked out. It looked pretty dark out.

Maybe I should check on Miss Patchouli, the library is just a little away.

I kept walking, until I my foot hit something, I looked down. It was one of the fairy maids, she looked pretty beat up, nothing serious though, but she was unconscious. I carefully stepped over her.
I kept walking until I came to two big cherry wood doors. I slowly pushed them and walked inside.

Lots of books were scattered on the floor, there were some burn marks on some tables and bookcases, a single candle was flickering. I looked around me, until I heard a familiar voice,
"Mu...kyu..." I ran towards the voice, search around some tables, and then I looked under one and found the librarian. Her clothes were torn and a little burnt, her glasses looked broken,

"Miss Patchouli?" I murmured, "Are you alright? What...hapened here?"

"Huh? S-Sakua-san? A-all of a sudden an arrow flew by, the- " Patchouli fell silent. Luckily it seems she only fell unconscious.

I should probably go check for Flandre. Wait, where's Koakuma? Oh well, I'll probably run into her later.

I ran through the halls heading for the basement stairs, passing by a few hurt fairy maids along the way. I stopped for a second in front of a room, I walked inside. It was one of the many closets, it mostly had first-aid items. I opened a drawer and took out a box with some bandages and such inside. Better safe than sorry, right?

With that I ran back out and continued my way to my destination. I eventually arrived, and slowed down. I slowly and cautiously opened up the door. It felt a little bit chilly in here. I started descending the staires until...what? Something powdery was on the ground. I should probably avoid breathing that in...just in case. I stared at it for a few seconds and then continued down the stairs and into the room. It had a light pink carpet, and the room was filled with luxury furniture and stuffed animals. I remember we had it enchanted so it wouldn't be too easy for the sister to break. I scanned the whole room. Just as I thought.

Flandre was nowhere to be found.

I sighed and headed back upstairs.

What am I to do? I thought. I wonder if Chi-I mean, Meiling is at the gate.

I hurried through the halls again, turning around some corners, more fairy maids on the floor, I eventually made it to the Foyer.

I pulled the huge doors open, stepped outsite, and closed them shut. I walked down the pathway, looking around at the scenery until I reached the gate. Meiling was on her knees with her hand on her forehead, she looked pretty confused. I headed toward her and held out a hand.

"Ow...I felt like I hit my head pretty hard." The guard took my hand and barely stood up.

"Do you have any idea of what happened?" I asked her. She shook her head.

"I was standing here guarding the gate, when out of nowhere I was hit really hard by something and I guess I passed out."

I looked around for what it could have been and I found a little piece of some kind of danmaku. I held it up for both of us to see, and not that I got a better look of it, it kind of looked like...both of our faces were pure red after we noticed the shape. I set it back down. I started speaking,

"M-Meiling, come on. We need to find the culprit. The one who took the mistress and the sister."

"Huh? Oh, right!" Meiling saluted, "Oh ya!" I looked at her while she started to pull something out,"Ta da!"

She held two blue overalls, one with a red shirt underneath and the other green, there were two matching hats and-wait a second...

"Meiling! This is no time to be playing around!" The guard giggled a bit.

"Oh, come on! Please?"

"No! We need to focus on rescuing the mistresses!"

"Pretty please?"

"I'm not going to take you if you keep doing that." I glared at her, about a minute passed by. Meiling dropped the clothes and sighed.

"Fine..."

All of a sudden, it felt like someone was watching us, and it looked like Chin-I mean Meiling noticed too. We looked around, and then saw one of the bushes move. We turned to it, I took out my knives and stop watch, just to be ready, and Meiling was in a fighting pose, we waited.

We heard a little more rustling and then a whimper. Guess she realized she's been caught, huh? There was more rustling, and then we sensed it, she was trying to get away.

I activated my pocketwatch, time stopped, I made my move. I hopped over the gate and landed on the otherside, and walked over to the bush we saw rustling. I held my knives firmly.

Ready...now!

Time unfroze. On the other side of the gate I could see Meiling looking around her, and then realized what I had done. I saw the girl come out of the bush, she had black hair with a set of rabbit ears, a pink dress.

"Going somewhere?" I questioned her. She jerked around, looking very shocked. I then noticed she also wore a carrot necklace. I folded my arms, gazing down on her. She laughed a little nervously. The little rabbit knew just as well as I did, that she wasn't going to get off the hook very easily.

Whew! Done! Wow, that was pathetic. Just over 1,00 words. . Now I feel like I was lazy or something. Oh well, I just need more practice. I started writing this fanfiction, since I left my flash drive with my other story at my cousins. ^^' So if you were waiting for the next chapter (which I HIGHLY doubt you were), I'm soooo sorry! Anyway, I'll start working on the next chapter soon. Just need a thirty minute break or so. I'm thinking of uploading every two days. How does that sound? Well, hope you enjoyed this~
