Chapter 1
In the Dark Woods, pass a seemingly endless maze, lies an abandoned mansion. In the mansion, a woman's voice can be heard screaming.
"RIN AND LEN KAGAMINE!"
A blonde girl laughs as she runs down the stairs, her brother following behind her laughing. An older brunette woman bursts down the hall, following the blonde twins down the stairs.
A tealette giggles from her place in the study next to her father, a blue haired man, as she notices the blonde twins run past the door: The brunette following behind them.
A green haired girl is seen running after the brunette, calling her name. "Mistress!"
A pinkette is seen atop the stair case, a purple-haired man standing next to her. The pinkette is giggling, while the man standing next to her has a rather plain expression on his face.
The brunette finally catches up to the two blonde twins, grabbing both their arms as she stops them in their tracks. The laughs from the twins stop as they realize they've been caught.
"You two know better than to prank me!" The brunette scolds.
The blonde girl speaks up first. "Sorry Mistress…Len and I were bored. All we do is stay cooped up in here."
Len, the blonde boy, nods in agreement to the statement his sister has said. "Rin's right. Were always cooped up in here, so we have to have a bit of fun sometimes right?"
The Mistress sighs as she knows that they are always bored at points, being cooped up in the mansion and all. "I understand that Rin and Len. Just don't do it again alright you two?"
Both the twins nod in unison, exclaiming, "Yes Mrs. Meiko!" The twins run off again, zipping down the hall to the kitchen to reward themselves with food.
Meiko raises a hand to her forehead, rubbing it gently as the blue-haired man and tealette girl come out from the study.
"What's wrong mother?" The tealette asks, bouncing over to the brunette with a slight smile on her face.
Meiko looks at the tealette, giving a slight smile back to her daughter. "It's nothing my dear Miku. Just Rin and Len playing pranks again."
The blue haired man gives Meiko a slight grin before walking over and kissing the top of her head. "Meiko you always chase after them every day for a prank they've done. And it always ends the same. I don't know why you keep going after them."
Said brunette looks up at the blue-haired man, giving him a slight smile. "My dear Kaito, you know I don't give up. Not easily."
Kaito laughs as he takes Meiko's hand, kissing it gently. He certainly knew his wife would never give up on chasing those two down, just to give them a good scolding.
Miku giggles as she watches her parents. Being the only daughter of Kaito and Meiko, she has expectations to live up to. One of them being to study a lot with her father, hence the reason she was in the study with him instead of pulling that glorious prank on her mother with Rin and Len.
The green-haired girl is standing behind the Master and Mistress, smiling as she stands there in a maid dress. The girl's name? Gumi Megpoid. She's the maid of the mansion, and is the one in charge of taking care of those two blonde twins.
The pinkette atop the stairs has disappeared, already being down the stairs with the same purple-haired man beside her. Her name? Luka Megurine. She's the Lady of the mansion, and also Meiko's younger sister. She adores her sister very much, and is very happy that Meiko was able to find a suitable husband.
The purple-haired man next to her no longer has an expressionless face, but rather a slight happy face; as you can see a small smile there. His name? Gakupo Kamui, the Butler of the mansion. It's his job to serve the Master and Mistress along with Gumi. But he also serves Luka, as she is the Mistress's sister.
Kaito steps away from Meiko, still holding her hand. Looking over to Gumi then to his daughter Miku, he says in a polite voice, "If you'll excuse us, Meiko and I have some important business to attend to."
After he has said this, he leads Meiko over to the staircase, passing Luka and Gakupo, who have their heads bowed politely. Up the stairs they go, they turn left and disappear down the hallway.
Said blonde twins come out from the hallway on the first floor, Len holding a banana in his hand and Rin an orange. Miku runs over to them, giggling as she tells them about what happened after they left.
Gumi smiles at the three, walking over to them to join the conversation. The four walk around the staircase, leading to the other hallway on the other side of it to allow them into the woods. The four usually left the mansion at noon every day to tend to the garden Luka and Meiko insisted on having.
Luka watched as the four left out the door Gumi had unlocked this morning. She smiled to herself. She always adored Rin and Len, and loved Kaito and Meiko's daughter. Gumi was always nice to her as well, helping with things she didn't know.
Gakupo looked over to Luka, and finding her smiling, smiled a little as well. "My Lady? What are you smiling at?"
Luka waved her hand, giggling a little. "Oh it's nothing Gakupo. I just love those four very much."
Said man chuckled a bit at the pinkette's answer. "Whatever you say my lady."
The Lady walked over to the study, motioning her hand for the butler to follow. "Come Gakupo, we must study the book."
The Butler nodded, following the pinkette into the study.
All was quiet in the main room now. The hustle and bustle had left just as quickly as it had come. The main room was lovely, very lovely.
The walls were painted a mixture of black and red, with gold borders decorating. A chandelier hung in the middle of the ceiling, lights off. The floor was decorated with tile, and a red carpet in the middle below where the chandelier was hanging. The front doors were closed off, locked.
To the right of the front doors were two other doors, one leading to a bathroom where the other led to a small sitting room. To the left was one door, leading to the study where currently the Lady and Butler were.
A stair case led to the second floor, where to the left was the Master and Mistress's, Miku's, and Luka's bedrooms were located. To the right was where The Doll Twin's bedroom was located along with Gumi's and Gakupo's. At the end of each of these hallways was a guest room for guest's to stay, if any decided to visit.
Back on the first floor, a hallway to the left of the staircase led to the kitchen and dining room. To the right, a small hallway with only one door leading to the outside and to the 'backyard' of the mansion.
Occasional giggles from the study could be heard, and talking from upstairs could be heard as well. Nothing from the outside could be heard.
But besides that, all was quiet.
