Setsuna walked out into the street, befuddled as to what to do. Raye had the only map to this labyrinth-like place. She was all alone in a town filled with fictitious characters, not all of them very pleasant. She had no clue where the hell her hotel was, nor was there much a way to find them.
"You look lost, may I help you?" Beside the blue haired half-demon stood a white rabbit with a pocket watch. The symbolism was not lost on her.
She looked to the heavens and asked "Why must you have a sense of humor?" then looked down at Lewis Carroll's character. "Yeah, can you tell me where the hotel is?"
"Which one?"
Setsuna looked dumbfounded, not willing to believe that the problem just got harder. "The one that takes fictives, I don't know!"
"Alright. Follow me."
"You're not going to lead me to a rabbit hole are you?" she muttered.
If the rabbit heard her he made no indication. Instead, he headed off into the night. Setsuna followed behind him, wondering if this was such a good idea. After a few minuets of trying to keep track of the twists and turns she gave up, following blindly. She kept a hand on the gun at the small of her back.
She rounded one corner and realized it was a dead end. "Aw crap." she said, drawing the gun. In front of her the white rabbit looked up into her eyes, not even acknowledging the gun.
"Sorry, but the queen says that if I don't work for them it's off with my head." He jumped into a shadow, apparently in all actuality a rabbit hole.
Setsuna sighed. "This is supposed to be a VACATION. Do you not know what a vacation is?" she asked the heavens, while turning to whatever awaited her at the mouth of the alley way.
There stood a pack of the most feared creatures in all of fiction-dum… MARY-SUES!!! They stood there looking at her in all of their perfect glory. Fortunately, Setsuna had dealt with them before, and knew not to look them in the boobs. She swallowed nervously, for as I have mentioned she had seen their likes before.
"I've already given you my answer." she said, her mouth dry.
"You know you cant resist us." said one with long, dark, purple hair and bright green eyes.
"Just accept who you are." a buxom girl with short black hair coaxed.
"You are one of us." continued one with violet eyes and curly brown hair.
"ONE OF US!!" all of them screamed.
Setsuna jumped, crawling up onto the roof of the building. Luckily, at this vantage point she could see her destination far on the horizon. She ran like she had never run before.
"Don't try and resist it Setsuna!" one yelled.
"I'm not like you!! I am flawed!! I'm an alcoholic, I have anger management problems, I curse, I'm lude, people hate my guts!! I'M NOT A MARY-SUE I'M JUST REALLY HOT!!" Setsuna hollered, trying to keep ahead of the group of rabid Mary-sues behind her.
She tried firing behind her, though she knew that they were bullet proof. She could see the hotel in the distance, seeing it as a sanctuary. She knew no Mary-Sue could make it through the doors.
"All you need is a bit of training!" one said behind her, grabbing onto a chunk of blue hair. Setsuna grabbed the chunk, wrapping it around her hand and pulled, almost sending her sprawling. She caught her balance, but at the loss of the firearm she had to leave behind She ran full out now, praying she would make it before the girls behind her made into a walking sex machine… okay… um… a walking sex machine with an ego problem?
Before Setsuna could contemplate exactly what WAS the difference between a Mary-sue and herself, she found the door to the hotel in front of her. She grabbed the handle and pulled, throwing herself inside and slamming the door behind her. With her momentum all she could do is keep herself from landing on her face when she fell to the floor.
She panted, calming her heart and trying to relearn how to breath. She could hear bodies being thrown at the door, though she knew they wouldn't be able to get in.
She looked up from her position on the hardwood floor, taking a peek at her surroundings. The place was decked out like a regular house. She was in a large hallway, and she could see doorways leading to the rest of the first floor. Right in front of her was a staircase.
This moment down the staircase came a disheveled Raye. "What's going on?" she asked peevishly.
The door opened behind Setsuna. Before she could think, she was cowering behind her little sister. Through the door squeezed Bunny. "Were you aware a bunch of scantily clad women were standing at our doorstep?" the silver haired shorty asked.
"Mary-Sues!" Setsuna asked.
Raye looked down at her on edge sister "They're after you again hm?"
"Yes. But I refuse! I am not one of them!!" Setsuna yelled defiantly.
Raye rolled her eyes "Better a Mary-Sue than a whore."
"Nu-uh! I am a whore, but I am no Mary-Sue!!"
Bunny raised an eyebrow "I wasn't aware there was a difference…"
Setsuna made an indignant sound. "Humph. I can tell I am so unloved!" she said, straightening up and going back to her self-assured self.
"HEY!! NEW PEOPLE! SHUT UP BEFORE I COME DOWN THERE AND MAKE YOU!!" someone yelled down from top floor.
Raye sighed. "Come on, I'll show you to your rooms. We'll start partying tomorrow."
