A little note aside, this is my first fanfic so any constructive critism are welcome!

The Touhou characters and settings are respectively belongs to ZUN! He's an awesome guy. Long live ZUN!
Leo, my character belongs to me.

This is a self-insert fic but hey, give me a slight chance with this, okay? Thankies.
Also, I'm trying my best to keep the originality of the canon characters to make this story a bit... Original, I guess. XD

Anyway, please enjoy the story and leave a review! Peace! :D

Chapter 14 is here! Yahoo!
This is where things get real, I guess. XD If you skipped chapter 13, it's okay. This is rather long as this is the beginning or prologue of where things starts to pile up.

So, if anything catches your eye like mispronunciations, plot holes or other stuffs, just tell me. I keep them noted! :D Thanks!

Enjoy the story and stay creative! :3

Chapter 14 - THE MIST

LEO'S POV ========= I slowly open my eyes and got up slowly. I took a deep yawn and quickly roll the futon back before grabbing my bag. I promised Nue that I ll be out before she knows it. I sighed and walked out of the room. Before I arrive at the front porch of the temple, I heard a familiar voice calling out for me. I turned around to see Byakuren standing there, giving me a small smile. You re leaving already? I nodded and told her my reasons. After I explain my reasons to her, she nodded and gave a cheerful smile to me. I bid her farewell and walks out of the temple gates back to the forest.

I took a long walk around the forest, looking for anyone I know like Kenta or even Reimu. Then, I was slowly surrounded by a mist. Is this really happening? I quickly ran to get away from the mist but everywhere I go, I see nothing but the mist. Everything has been covered by the mist. What happened here? As I stopped running to catch my breath, I look up in the sky. The sight was surprising. A giant rock is floating up in the distant sky. As if my days in Gensokyo aren t weird enough. If only I could fly up there...

Flying, eh? That seems common around Gensokyo as everyone here knows how to fly I wonder if I could too. I close my eyes and took a deep breath. I concentrate all of my energy to my legs and my body weight. I tried so hard that I started to sweat by doing absolutely nothing except concentrating. Then I couldn t feel my feet touch the ground. Am I flying? I opened my eyes to see me floating inches away from the ground. I went too excited; I lost my concentration and fell right on the ground. That was silly of me.

I tried again and manage to fly a bit higher than before but I quickly land back on the ground as the consumption of energy on flying is really high. Weirdly enough that I got tired quicker flying than running. I wonder how the girls fly without feeling tired.

I sighed and continue on foot to get close to that floating rock. Trust me that flying won t help as I m afraid of heights and the pressure of the air above could worsen my asthma.

REIMU'S POV (The same time as Leo's POV)
======================================== It was another peaceful day in Gensokyo, no incidents had been recently happening after Leo got back to the outside world. I wonder if he s okay there. I slowly took a sip from my mid-morning tea and took a view around my surroundings. After I finished drinking my tea, I stand up and took my broom as I m going to sweep the shrine s entrance path. Then, as I was about to begin sweeping, my surroundings was slowly covered by a mist. I took a look around and only see a few things as my visibility in the mist is quite low. I have a bad feeling about this so I quickly fly up to see if the whole Gensokyo got swallowed by this mist.

The view was disorienting. The whole Gensokyo is swallowed by the mist. And there seems to be a giant rock floating up in the sky above the forest. I could accuse Tenshi for the rock but that doesn t look anything like Tenshi s rock. As I was about to fly up there, I saw Marisa flies towards me.

Yo, Reimu! What s up with this fog, eh? Marisa took a look around with a disturbed look on her face. I don t know but I think another incident is happening Come on. We need to gather as much help as we can. Let s split up, alright? Marisa gave a smirk at me and nodded. Gotcha. I ll go and see Alice first. She flies off to seek help from her neighbor.

I on the other hand need to look for whomever responsible for this so I flew off towards the floating rock.
