M/N: You want me to bullshit for you, ze~? Fine, but I'll need a form of... payment. Z-ze? N-no, don't lift your skirt, I didn't mean like that, ze!

A/N: Fine, fine... Ohh, also, don't miss my Reimu x Yukari fanfic! It's a oneshot, but it's a moderate size... Anyways, on with the show!

Late night, Forest of Magic, Marisa's shack, Marisa's PoV:

Hmm... Yes... Yeees... Perfect, this spell is nearly complete, and then I'll be one ste- ehh?

The windows of my house suddenly were blown out by an explosion, the roof flying a few metres in the air.

"Kaf, kaf... Ugh... Another failed attempt..." I found myself blown through the roof, flying high into the air. Guess I'll need to go and... borrow more books on the subject of losing one's humanity...

I caught my broom, which was twirling through the air towards me, and was off to... borrow some more books from the Voile.

I always made sure to do such things at night, as the fairies and such slept at night, even the Fairy maids in Remilia's employ, as they always managed to annoy her somehow.

I mean, sure, it did make the odds of meeting a vampire infinitly higher, but neither of them really tried to stop me, Flandre simply wanting to play, while Remilia requested a blood donation. Not like I mind giving up a bit of blood, I'm sure she wouldn't want to sully her family name by turning me anyways, not that I would particularly mind such a thing.

While my magics kept me from aging at the same rate as other humans, I still wanted a more... permanant fix for the aging problem. At the rate things were going, I looked just as old as Reimu, who was slightly older than me! I tell you, somthing isn't right about that girl... She says it's holy power doing it, but why is Sanae aging, if that's so? She's been here, what, 5 years now? She didn't look nearly as young as when she first arived. I don't know how Reimu does it, but I'm not about to die first! I'll discover another path, as I just don't have enough internal mana to become a magician!

I zoomed across the night sky, silent as can be, seeing the usual gate guard snoring. I really do wonder why they don't have 2 guards... Meiling's out there nearly 24/7 and obviously can't stay awake all that time, right?

I went over the gate, and began to search for an unlocked window.

I hadn't noticed that Meiling had stopped pretending to sleep as soon as I couldn't could see her. She was actually under order to let me in by Remilia herself, so she always played the part of the lazy guard shirking her duty any time I came by. Remilia enjoyed human blood with a trace of magic, and I was one of few that could give her such a treat. ...Heck that only raised her reasons to not drain too much at once, as I was the only human magician in all of Gensokyo, atleast as far as I knew. All others had long since become Youkai, as they had pleanty of magic in their veins. I actually, unlike most magicians, have no natural aptitude for magic. I use my creativity, as well as a great deal of love, to win battles. Mima taught me a way to make up for it, but it only went so far... To become loved by many, and feed off of that energy. It works, but it's still not the same as raw mana.

Mima... I miss her so... Why did she have to simply vanish one day? She was like the family my family never was. At a young age they kicked me out, saying that I should be burned for what I was interested in. Saying I was doing things that were forbidden, learning things one should not. Mima? She smiled and offered me her hand, pulling me into a world of magic that molded me into the woman I was today. I'd never be able to thank her enough for such a thing, not in a hundred years, not in a thousand, not ever.

Before long, I had come across a window that was unlocked. While Sakuya was thorough, the fairies were not. In fact, they were quite sloppy with... just about everything.

I entered the window, quietly closing it behind me, and took to walking. Patchouli could sense magic, so I couldn't use magic unless I wanted her to pinpoint my location.

I snuck along, using a map of the place that I had been writing up over the years. The place was huge, but it was quite easy to navigate with a map.

I snuck about for what had to be the better part of an hour, slowly making my way from corridor to corridor, before I somehow was discovered by one I hadn't even expected to be here.

"...Marisa? What are you doing here?" I went stiff, knowing I had been discovered. Wait, that voice... what was that fairy doing here?

I turned around to see that Usagi girl, who looked... Well, quite different. Last I saw her, she was wearing a slightly oddly fitting purple Kimono, and was a fairy. ...Now, she looked like a vampire, and was wearing the outfit that one would expect of Flandre, minus the hat, and her hair was a bit moist looking, as if she had recently taken a bath. On her back were ...wings, if they could even be called that. Much like flandre's own, they seemed quite... weird, as if they had no reason to exist, other than to make stealth quite difficult.

"What am I doing here? What're you doing here, ze? ...And how would a fairy such as yourself become a Vampire, ze?" While I gave off the appearance of an idiot, of a goof, I was actually quite well studied. Especially on topics of interest to me. I had researched many ways one could become a Youkai, one of which being Vampirism.

"Ahh, Patchouli made me eat my own finger, turning me human, and then Flandre couldn't resist how tasty I smelled..." ...I had never thought of trying to convince Flandre to drain me of blood, primarily out of fear that she would be a bit blood crazy, but this girl seemed to be in one piece... Either Flandre was gentle in that aspect, or Usagi was tough as shit.

"Wait, whats this about eating fingers, ze?" I'd never heard about such a thing before.

"Ahh, well, I turned out being a Mimic, and Patchouli needed to grind up my finger, so she had Mima cut off my pinky an-" I couldn't help but interupt the girl.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa... W-who did you say cut off your finger...?" Could it be true? After all these years, Lady Mima had returned? Why now? Why here?

"Ahh, Miss Mima! She's nice, though she did stab me that one time..." Yyyep, that sounded like the Mima I knew.

"The evil spirit, maker of the Twilight spark?" I had to be sure, before I begin to panic.

"Yeah! Cirno beat her, and then she helped us defeat Yukari!" ...What? I-I... What? ! Cirno? ! Mima? ! I mean, yes, Cirno has gotten alot stronger in recent years, even being able to defeat myself, but... Mima?

"H-h-how...?" I was slightly afraid of the answer.

"Well, Yuuka was possessing me, and Cirno learned how to do that sparky thing by watching 'me' do one. Mima didn't seem to see Cirno as a threat, so... she got frozen with a Minus K Spark." ...Well, atleast I can believe that... I lost too, for the same reason. ...I think there is a lesson to be learned there, somewhere...

"Tell me, where is she now?" I needed to abort and go find my Master!

"Ahh, I think she's actually going to be visiting you tomorrow, along with Cirno and, if I can get out of here, Me." Ohh? Not allowed to leave, is she? Hmm... Hehehe...

"Well, hop on my broom, and We'll wait at my place for 'em!" As my plans changed, no need for non-magic sneaky sneaky anymore...

"E-ehh? B-but... won't Flan and Remilia be sad...?" ...What? Did this girl actually like the pair of tiny old women? What a strange girl... Most would be terrified of the pair, yet she just takes it in stride! Though, maybe she had abandoned her common sense, as Sanae had.

"Fine, I'll bring you back some time, okay...?" I can't believe I'm agreeing to this... But, hey, the girl helped Mima.

Just then she began to grin. ...I could say I've never seen a grin quite like it. It reminded me of the times Rumia had grinned at me, but with 4 double length teeth... How the old hell did she get teeth so... egh...

"Thanks, Marisa!" And then she began to hug me , while looking up at me, her grin still showing. While I don't fear things like Youkai, the situation did disturb me a fair bit, not to mention the idea of how much damage such teeth would do if one tried to suck blood with them.

As I was now technically kidnapping a Scarlet, I hugged her back, so as to secure her, and hopped onto my broom. I had a rather good memory, so I sped to the location of the still open window, and we were outside in under a minute, speeding off to my home.

Remilia's PoV:

"Little sister, where are you...?" Flandre looked high and low, but she simply couldn't find her new sister.

"Flan, she'll be back in a few days, don't worry." Over diner, I had discused many things with my new sister. Of these things, was that Ice fairy friend of hers, Cirno. The way she spoke of the fairy, told me all I needed to know. She was in love with the fairy of the lake, even if she herself didn't realise it, it was as plain as day to one such as myself.

It helped that I could see their red strings of fate were linking to eachother durring dinner.

Under the trappings of fate, the Witch had kidnapped the girl, feeling an odd need to, as I willed it to happen. What better way to get the two reunited, than to have Usagi be at their destination, waiting? I'm not all evil, I'd let Flan do as she wishes, if she only gets friends. The same goes for my newest sister, Usagi. She already has friends, already has plans, so why not let her go for now? Plus, odds are she would bring her friends back with her...

If one befriends one sister, that's a step towards befriending another. Maybe Flandre could become fast friends with Usagi's own friends, or maybe not... only time would tell. At best, I can fate Flan to not play too rough with these friends of Usagi's. I wouldn't want them to be killed after all, as that would make my new sister upset, I'm sure.

Even if I had only just met her, it would tear me up a bit to see such a cute one cry.
