De/N: He really needs to work on that. He needs to learn not to procrastinate like someone I know.

Sc/N: Since when have I procrastinated? I always do what I say I will do. I just get distracted is all.

De/N: Well talk about this later, but do are friends here have anything they would like to add?

U/N: Aha! Sorry about the extra day of delay on my part of the editing~

Sc/N: What are you two doing over there. Your sending the readers very bad impressions. Derek get me a hose or something.

U/N:W-wait, not the hose!

De/N: Hose is ready. It's at half the usual PSI to prevent serious injury.

Sc/N: I hope you have learned that the intro area is not a place to get to second base at.

U/N: Brglglgl!

K/N: Brglglgl~

Sc/N: Sorry for this shameful opening viewers. I'm sure are guests are to. Aren't you guests?

K/N: Ahh~ I'm so wet no- Brglglgl~

Scion could feel the hairs stand up on the back of his neck as he walks through the forest. "Derek, please let us know if there's something there. I would prefer not to get jumped."

Derek responds in a rather arrogant tone, "Nothing will escape my sight when I'm focused." As he says this from directly behind him, so close that it's almost directly by his ear, a voice asks, "Is that so~?"

"Oh for the love of god," Scion shot an agitated look at Derek. "Of course the one person you can't see shows up."

"...That's cheating." said a deflated Derek.

Scion turns around to face the voice, "Well it's not that I'm not happy to meet you. It's just I've heard so many interesting things about you Miss Rumia."

With a shark-like grin, and a dispersal of her cloud, she once more asked, "Is that so~?"

"That is so! I've always wanted to meet the infamous Youkai of Darkness, and I must say..." Without warning he springs in front of her and locks her in an embrace, "You are so much cuter in person!"

Not particularly un-used to this, she once more asked, "Is that so~?" She had a bit of drool hanging from her lips at how close he was at this point, coupled with how good he smelled.

Scion let her go after a moment. "Ah sorry about that. I've been sort of holding back my desires to hug cute things, but that string finally broke. Not that I don't think youre cute Olive."

He looks to see where his fairy friend is to find that she looked like a deer in headlights. She couldn't figure out why he wasn't missing his throat. "She had the perfect chance!" she thought. With a giggle, Rumia once more asked, "Is that so~?"

From behind her, another figure arrived, panting, and trying to catch her breath. "S-sunshine... Wh-why did... why did you... run ahead...?" Scion wasn't sure why Olive looked so shocked, but changed his focus when he sees the women running up. He didn't recognize her, but she was calling Rumia "sunshine" for some reason. He looks at the girl for a solid minute before finally asking, "Who are you?"

The woman answers, "Hakurei Mima. Though, I'm not sure as to what such an exchange will accomplish, seeing as you seem to be human."

With a giggle, Rumia replied, "That is so~!"

Scion wasn't happy the fact he was human was such easy knowledge, but decides to play it off, "Well if I'm human, then I am several times more powerful on top of having super natural healing abilities. By the way I am Scion, and are you really Mima? I mean, you don't look dead, and what do you mean Hakurei? I didn't know you were related to Reimu."

With a chuckle, Mima answered, "Ahh, that brings back such memories... Back when I was alive for the first time, Rumia and I were the first incident resolvers..." With a nostalgic sigh, she went on to add, "At least, until I died, that is."

"I think we need to have a seat somewhere and swap stories. I apparently have a lot to learn about this version of Gensokyo. Is there anywhere near that we can stay at for the night?" Scion again checks on Olive a bit worried that she was being so quiet. At that point, the fairy's left eye was twitching. Again she thinks, "Why has he not been eaten?"

With a grin, Rumia said, "Well, if you don't mind freezing to death, Cirno's never been one to turn down guests for such things. Heck, she once caught a girl from the sky, and they now share the place." She giggled to herself a bit about how close those two are.

Mima raised a brow at this, and asked, "Is that fairy... okay...?" She knelt before Olive, and began to poke her cheek, not getting any particular response.

Scion shruged. "I don't know? I'm getting really worried about her... Maybe if we take her to Cirno's, and have her lie down - she must not be feeling alright." Scion's stomach growls, "Um I guess we may need to eat to. I haven't had anything except a poptart since getting here." Hoisting the stunned fairy on to her shoulder with no effort at all, Mima says, "Well, we're actually on our way to have some food with the team, and as Aya's bringing meat, I'm sure there will be plenty extra, so long as Sunshine doesn't go overboard." She gave Rumia a look.

"Eheh~ Sorry, I can't help my hunger sometimes!" Rumia rubbed the back of her head, a bit embarrassed.

"Aya is hanging out with team 9. What is going on here...? None of my prior knowledge of Gensokyo covers this. Well this will be very interesting to say the least. Very well - lead the way." Rumia tilted her head at that statement, before moving like a blur and kicking his feet out from under him, and catching him mid-fall. "Hoh...! You're heavier than my sword!" she was planning to carry the man, but gave up on that, dropping him rather suddenly.

This got Mima's brows to rise. "How heavy are you, outsider...? It's very hard to come by things that she can't carry..."

Being dropped on his face was quite painful since it happened faster than he could think to catch himself. Slowly pushing himself up, he answers Mima's question, "I weigh about 1000 pounds give or take."

Thinking on this, she says, "...And how do your bones not break under that sort of weight...?" She was a bit confused as to the weight, even if she hardly even knew the conversion of kilos to pounds. 1000 still sounded like a lot, so she simply assumed as such. Though, she did over-estimate the weight that would translate to, as she wasn't very good with pounds.

While they had begun to talk, Rumia began to walk off towards their destination. She was hungry, and Mima could easily find her way, so why care, she thought.

Mima noticed her take her leave, and motioned for the man to follow her.

Following along, Scion explains his weight to Mima, "Well my bones are what weigh me down, actually. I have a very dense and powerful substance known as dark matter coating them. I have a very high constitution because of it, since my bones are just about unbreakable with the stuff protecting them."

Pausing verbally for a moment to reflect on this, Mima responded, "I would suggest not telling many this. They may take it as a challenge to break your bones - I know Rumia would..." She let out a sigh at how much Rumia gets carried away on such things.

"I'll try to remember that, but fully charged I doubt even Yuuka could bust them. Still full power may be a ways off since I've spent a good deal of energy since getting here. I don't suppose you know a way to make the air easier to breath, do you? Absorbing the magic has only reduced the affect, but I can't breathe very well here."

Giving a shrug, Mima answered, "Back when I was alive for the first time, the world was still full of magic to an extent... No idea, but maybe you could go see Patches. Though, after the barrier was formed, it did seem to collect the last traces of magic in the world, and fill the place to the brim. In the outside world, magic is just about dead because of this, I'm sure. You just have to grin and bear it, I guess." She chuckled, and gave Scion a heavy pat on the back with her free hand.

"I wish that was comforting, but until I get used to it I'm gonna be about as strong as Patchouli. You know, I was wondering... I have obviously displayed an uncanny knowledge of this land without ever being here before. Does that not seem strange to you?"

Mima gave a snort, and said, "Why would it matter? You seem to be concerned that nothing is the way you expected, so it's no game-breaker... Your knowledge seems far from perfect, as you know of things, and yet don't know them in the least." She then lowered her brows and said, "And don't you go bad mouthing my Master! Just because she has a condition doesn't mean she wouldn't wipe the floor with you. She may be only slightly older than I, but she's a being of pure arcane might!" She gave Scion a glare for his poor choice of words.

Scion gave her a nervous glance. "Ehh, Sorry, I meant no disrespect; I was merely referring to her physical constitution and in no way her magical abilities. My knowledge may be far from perfect, but you could say," He have her a big grin. "That I am a quick learner." As Mima was no longer in the mood to chat, the rest of the half-hour trip went by in silence. Eventually, the forest gave way to open air, from which one could see a huge lake with a modestly sized shack on one side, and a very large, very scarlet mansion on the other, in the distance. Scion takes a moment to gaze at the lake, "Misty Lake sure is nice... I wondered when I would ever get a chance to see this place, myself. This land, Gensokyo, is a really beautiful place to live in."

"Sure is, isn't it? Far nicer than the outside world, at least as of before the border was put up. Probably gotten uglier, though. This land, however... it's still pure, even with that one horrible, horrible village of humans. Atleast things are starting to look up, though... Judging by the couple days I spent in Keine's class, I'd say that the newest generation is far more to my liking. Far less into trying to kill me, that's for sure!" She chuckled a bit. "Though... It still won't change the evils and atrocities of the past. Sins of the father, and such."

"You shouldn't be too hard on humans. We aren't all as bad as you think we are. People are often the results of their upbringing, and the prejudice of the parents often translates to their children. Teaching kids what their parents did wrong is the first step to coexistence. It's all about the kids in my book. Get the kids set right and it doesn't matter what the parents think."

Under her breath, Mima said, "Say that after seeing one of their victims... Not a pretty sight at all..." She let out a sigh.

Overhearing her, he countered, "Hey, it's not like Youkai are much better at "pretty sites" if I may quote, but I'm not goanna play the who's worst game, because I already know it's about even."

Having a nerve stepped on, Mima shouts, "And yet Youkai don't gang rape humans for as long as they can get away with it! I've seen some horrible things... At worst, a Youkai'll eat you, and maybe even give you a last request... They tend to avoid giving pain, unless they have reason to. As such, the death would usually be instant, after they get you feeling the emotion they are in the mood for - such as bliss. Sure, they'd still do things like rape, but they'd be gentle if they do. It's funny, really... The ones who are strong are gentle, and one ones who are weak are brutal, and rough. Beyond that, you have their reasons for killing... Humans usually do it because they can, while Youkai at least do it for food..." In the time of her rant on the subject, the two of them had arrived at the shack, and the mist of the lake was rather dense on that day. One could hardly see the ground, and there were some patches of ice about, making for a rather dangerous place to walk. Mima was used to is, so she hardly even stumbled when a leg went to the side.

Scion was getting frustrated by Mima being so dead set on condemning her own kind, "Hey, don't talk to me about the levels of human evil I'll have you know..." Scion was cut off when he felt a cracking under his foot as it slid forward causing him to do an unwilling split on the ice, "Gyaaaaaaaaaaa!" He yells, and then whimpering in pain falls over on the ground holding his pained area.

Mima snickered at him, and in her sudden lack of attention wasn't quite prepared for when she ended up slipping across a long stretch of ice, and went careening towards the lake. "Gyaaa! Rumia, stop this crazy thing!" Poking her head out from behind the shack, her mouth spattered with blood, Rumia caught Mima with a blood coated hand, and spun her in a rather tango-like way, saving her from being launched into the icy waters.

Scion rolls over and tries to get to his feet only to slip on the ice again. Beyond frustrated, he yelled, "That's it! rocket boots." Clicking on the boots he blast the ice as well as propelling himself forward. He deactivates them immediately, but ended up with enough momentum to crash right into the back of the shack next to where Rumia stood. He ended up halfway in the wall still lying on the ground.

Rumia let Mima's body dip back, and leaned in to give her a nice, blood smeared kiss. Mima quickly began giving into the kiss, not particularly minding the cocktail of saliva and blood in the least. Her eyes slowly eased shut while she enjoyed the kiss.

Scion still stuck in the wall tries to look up at his surroundings in the dim shack. Unaware that Rumia is busy having fun with Mima. "Ahaha! He's like some kind of jack-in-the-box!" The man suddenly felt a crushing grip on his ankle, and was pulled roughly from the wall. The first thing he saw was the grinning face of Flandre, once he was free of the wall.

Every source of common sense in Gensokyo tells him he should be frightened in this situation, but he was just to happy to see the adorable loli vampire to care. "Flandre! Oh my god!" He yells while trying to hug her from the awkward position. "E-ehh...? Do I... know you, mister...?" The miniscule vampire was quite confused at this point, while Aya was snapping photos of the loving couple making out.

"No, but I know you oh so well. Sorry I'm having a hard time resisting the urge to hug you right now. Could you maybe put me down? I know I'll donate blood for a hug. It's not like it will kill me. Well kill me for good."Flandre tilted her head, but did as asked, even if she tackled him to the ground with her face buried in his neck soon after. "R-really...? I can... have some...?" She was sniffing with great fervor at his neck, loving the stench of his blood that seeped through his skin. It wasn't often she got fresh blood from a human, let alone one with such a good smell.

With a weak sound of protest from Mima, Rumia finally ended their kiss, leaving behind a panting, dazed Mima. "Th-thank... Thank you, Sunshine!" She had a lovely smile on her now blood-smeared mouth, which earned her a wide grin from Rumia.

"La-la~ la-la~ la-la la-la la-la la-la la laaaa~ la-la-la-la~" Mystia quietly sang to herself, but made sure to be quiet so as not to activate the blinding properties of her voice. As she sang she turned the spit, doing her important if boring job.

Cirno and Usagi were keeping their distance from the fire for obvious reasons, and sat by each other, hand in hand, while a parasol made of ice shaded Usagi even if the tinge of night had removed the need for it.

Wriggle was asking Aya, "Do you really need pictures of that...? I doubt that'd make a good article!" In actuality, she was just a bit jealous that Aya was focusing on those two so much.

"Ayaya, I don't just take pictures for my paper, ya know! I take them for mementos, alone time, black mail for self-defense, and for future gifts!" She had a huge grin on her face, which almost distracted Wriggle from one of her statements. "...Alone time?" The word sent a very exact mental image into Wriggle's head, and a blush onto her cheeks. Aya chuckled, and gave no answer, as it'd make Wriggle more embarrassed. Which it did.

Scion didn't let the sniffing bother him, as he was too focused on giving her a bear hug to think about it. Derek decided to be the one to notice his surroundings by observing the many other Youkai who had chosen to make there appearance known.

In a bit of a commanding tone he yells at Scion, "Hey Scion, how about calming the hell down and focusing? I know you're stuck in your personal fantasies, but now is not a good time."

Scion's mood shifts back to normal snapping out of his daze, "Ohh, your no fun Derek. Flan, please make sure you don't suck out all my blood, OK?"

"I'll shock you if you suck too much. So do be careful." threatens Derek.

She gave a giggle, and then licked his jugular once. "Big sis said not to do that, so I wasn't gonna, anyways!" With that said, she gently, yet quickly, drove her fangs in.

She easily pierced the flesh, letting the rich sanguine gush into her mouth. Scion stiffens after being bitten, but he manages to keep his voice in. He felt a strange sensation from having his blood draining at such a rate; as though bit by bit his strength was leaving him as he lost more and more blood. Unlike bleeding out though, he didn't get the cold sensation. He started to space out while focusing on the feeling and even fell into a daze.
