I woke up the next morning in the guest room of the dollmaker of Bucuresti, a.k.a. Alice Margatroid. She was nice enough to allow me to stay a night in her house. I suddenly caught the smell of food coming from somewhere, so I decided to get dressed and ready for the day, although it was raining outside. I followed the smell to Alice's Kitchen and saw her dolls cooking up some breakfast, which appears to be a more Eastern dish than the western dishes familiar to me.

Alice: "I see you're up already. I had my dolls make breakfast if you want some."
Reinhardt: "Really? Well, thanks Alice. I really appreciate your kindness and hospitality. I heard that most youkai and other people aren't usually this nice, but you're very much different than they are. Maybe some day I can return the favor to you."
Alice: "No, it's fine. I enjoy the company. I don't get many visitors here, but I go to visit my friends. I would've went to the Scarlet Devil Mansion, but it's raining outside now."
Reinhardt: "Well, I wouldn't want to overstay my welcome, so I guess I'll head out."
Alice: "Are you sure? It's raining outside. You could stay a bit longer. I have enough dolls to tidy up the house that I wouldn't mind."
Reinhardt: "Nah, nah it's fine. I have a raincoat. I'll go gather my stuff. Thank you again ever so much for your kindness, Alice."
Alice: "You're welcome back here any time you need somewhere to stay. I can also show you the way out of the forest."
Reinhardt: "Thank you, I may need it." I went to gather my belongings from the guest room, including my Bible, my Mosin Nagant, and my Laptop. I checked all of my things to make sure they were in order and followed Alice and her Shanghai dolls out the door. I overheard her muttering about a book missing and having to ask Marisa. Marisa Kirisame is a well-known magician notorious for stealing books and such from people.
Alice: "Reinhardt, do you mind me stopping by my friend, Marisa's for a bit on our way out of the forest?"
Reinhardt: "Nah, I don't mind at all. It might be a good opportunity to meet new people." Or to bring a bit of justice to Gensokyo. Hmhmhm...
We continued out the door into the Forest of Magic with an umbrella held by the Shanghai doll and took a path through the trees surrounding us and soon approached a house similar in fashion to Alice's house. Marisa was just about out her door when we approached her house.
Marisa: "OH! Alice! I didn't expect you to be here. I was just off to see Reimu. How are you, ze?"
Alice: "Hi Marisa. I was just wanting to stop by here after I had a guest at my house. He's new here and his name is Reinhardt."
Reinhardt: "Hey there." I caught her staring at me with both curious interest and strangeness.
Marisa: "Oh hi, nice to meetcha. I'm Marisa. Do you want to come on in? It's a bit drizzly out, ze."
Alice: "Sure. Now I was coming here to ask you about something. I seem to have misplaced my book, my Grimoire. Would you happen to have seen it anywhere. I also lost one of my dolls somewhere."
Marisa: "You're surely not assuming that I stole it, are you, ze?"
Alice: "Actually, I am."
Marisa: "Well how about we take this outside then. I'd hate to accidentally shoot your precious book among my belongings, ze. If it's in here, that is."
Alice: "Reinhardt, you stay by the house. I'll make this as quick as possible."
Marisa: "So will I."

Perfect. This is my opportunity to find Alice's book and doll to repay her. I decided to go back to Marisa's other rooms while the ladies were duking it out with magic outside. I scanned through the stacks of books and various trinkets for Alice's belongings. I came across an intercontinental ballistic missile while I searched. Wow! This thing can completely nuke the SDM with the proper station in good condition. I went back to my search and found a doll unlike Alice's other dolls. It must be a prototype or something. I put it in my bag and scanned the books again and eventually found a book titled The Grimoire of Alice. I quickly put it in my bag with the doll before the ladies' fight came to a conclusion. Soon enough, I heard a big explosion up in front of the house. I went to investigate quickly. Alice was on the ground as Marisa dusted off her cap. I quickly helped Alice up and dusted her off a bit.

Marisa: "It seems that your little investigation comes to an end." Indeed it has. Marisa Kirisame, guilty of theft.
Alice: "*cough cough* Well, I guess I should help Reinhardt out of the forest and head back home."
Marisa: "Yeah, you two lovebirds take care now, ze!" I can tell she must be jealous.
Reinhardt: "Alice, are you alright?"
Alice: "Don't worry, I'm fine. I just lost two precious belongings of mine." I had a crazy smile I couldn't hold in as I held those precious belongings in my bag.
Alice: "Why are you- OH! Is this... how di..."
Reinhardt: "I heard about those things of yours and decided to do some justice and search Marisa's witch shack for them, just for you."
Alice: "I don't even know what to say... but thank you so much! I wouldn't know what to do without these. The doll was a work in progress in a breakthrough attempt to make a new and improved fighting doll. I understand why Marisa wanted to steal it. You're always welcome at my place for anything and anytime at all. Thank you so much!"
Reinhardt: "Hey, I told you I'd return the favor." The weather had seemed to lighten up after the "visit" and Alice escorted me out of the forest safely.
Alice: "I'll never forget your kind doings."
Reinhardt: "Likewise!" As I walked on the road toward sunnier skies, I had a feeling in my heart that Alice likes me. Not just as a friend or acquaintance, but really likes me. I plan to visit her plenty in the future, but I'll decide to explore the rest of Gensokyo and see what surprises it holds for me.
