Hey, all! Here's my first Rozen Maiden fanfic to keep you all entertained. Hope you likes. ^^


A Proposition - Shinku's POV

Everything seemed cold and dead ;moss and vines spouted through the lifeless, crumbling walls and no moonlight gleamed through the dark. Just what one would expect from Suigintou's N-field. A chilly wind ruffled through my dress as I strolled down the deserted, dark town. I stopped, as a sharp black feather whispered past me and stuck in the ground. A soft giggling met my ears. I shut my eyes and a soft, dark smile crept onto my face as I jumped into the air to greet her. There she was, sitting on top of a roof that was caving in on itself, grinning sadistically at me.

"Well, well, well, we meet again... Shinku. It seems you are finally prepared to meet your destiny and accept that you are junk."

"Good evening, Suigintou." I wasn't to be put off by her taunting. No, I had come to her N-field for quite another purpose. A purpose I had debated in my subconcious for some time and was willing to put forward to her.

"I have a proposition for you."

"Delightful, Shinku! I wondered when you would become such a willing sister and give me your Rosa Mystica co-operatively." Suigintou stood and hovered for a moment then began charging swiftly towards me, her arm held out to grab at my chest.

"Stop," I commanded and held up my hand. Suigintou ceased suddenly and looked at me suspiciously.
"I have quite a different propostion to make to you, Suigintou."

She paused for a moment. "Go on."

I smiled as I spoke. "I have been thinking about this issue for some time and it has become clear to me that our rivalry began on that fateful night, all those long years ago."

Suigintou's eyes shrunk but she didn't flinch.

"At first, I was unwilling to accept it but now I am certain of it: my vanity and disdain for you at that time, since you were not complete, was the spark that ignited the demise of our short-lived friendship."

Suigintou's hand was clasped at her torso and she was panting slightly but I continued.

"Therefore, I would like to propose this: that we cease our petty squabbling immediately and become cordial and polite once more towards each other. I have been carrying an unecessary grudge in my heart for too long now and I feel that you have as well." I looked up at the first Rozen Maiden, my disgruntled sister, with a soft gaze.

"How do you feel about this, Suigintou?"

Suigintou's POV

I hovered there as my body turned to ice. Shinku was staring right at me, with open eyes and a smile on her face. What in Father's name was she thinking? One part of me was eager to stop our personal fighting and properly recognise each other as sisters once again but another part of me was incredulous,
insulted even. All this hate and deceit had been etched into my pysche and it was this that wanted me to rip Shinku apart and snatch her Rosa Mystica for my own gain and now she wanted me to let go of something that was a firm part of me? How stupid she was!

"You disgust me," I hissed at her. "Never before have I been more insulted and willing to tear you apart with my on bare hands. As I said before," I growled, opening up my wings. "You have no right to become Alice, you miserable wretch. You have no pride or dignity, therefore you cannot ever call yourself a Rozen Maiden!"

Shinku shook her head at me, tutting. "I should have known you would decline, Suigintou. What I am offering you is an oppurtunity to forget our upsetting past and - "

"Forget? Forget? How dare you say that word infront of me! There is no way I can forget what you've done to me and I certainly don't intend to. Now stop your meaningless drivel and fight me. I wish to torture you as slowly and as painfully as I can before I kill you. I'll give you something not to forget,
Shinku."

I watched the crimson doll sigh and turn away from me, floating gently down to the grainy cobblestones below. 'My, my... she really is a fool,' I thought to myself. I flapped my left wing and sent a shower of feathers down on her. Shinku stood perfectly still as the feathers streaked past her. I gnashed my teeth and swooped down infront of her.

"Do you wish to back down as the coward you are?"

"I never came for a fight, Suigintou. I came to offer you a propostion and you have rudely declined.
Therefore, seeing as you do not intend to live a contented life, I shall take my leave. Holie!"

Shinku flicked her flicked her right index finger up and her artificial spirit shot out and glowed brightly. I had to cover my eyes to protect them from the blinding red light. By the time the light had dimmed, Shinku was gone. A sharp, breezy wind took her place and whipped back my silver hair. My deep magenta eyes scrutinized the empty air where she'd been standing. For a fool, Shinku had left me a lot to think about.


I'm not going to do that thing where I make a long comment on a story as I want it to flow along. Besides, I bet you lot are bored witless over hearing me prattle on about things that aren't really that relevant, are ya? :P
