Heavy rain, Thunder, wind howling in my ear, lost. 'l'm lost in the Black Forest, I know my lord told me to go there to find out what happen to the others but I wish she didn't send me here. l'm a scout, not a fighter!, I didn't know it was real?!'

sound of a twig snap cost him to stop in place, he look around with a panicked look in his eyes, it's near. he put his back on the tree to make sure it won't surprise attack from beyond, he pull out his shortsword and check his blind spot, 'I don't want to die' he said to himself. that image start to reappear in his head, finding the team that when missing, his friends... are now dead. the bunny man is real, standing over them as if they where nothing to him, then saw me with that blood cover face, I just ran for my life. I-no... we thought he was made up story from the red maples Fortress to try to scared us, US!, the blue Rose. a man with a bunny head running around in the black Forest with an axe in hand and will kill anyone if he see you trespassing in his woods.

'how ridiculous that is?... but now I know he is real and I need to get back to the keep to tell the others, I need t-'

before he could finish his thought, an axe came flying out the trees and hit him in the head, he start to slowly slide down the tree that was covering his back, before everything when to black, he saw the bunnyman move out behind a tree and start to move to the soon to be dead body.

---at the blue rose keep---

grandfather clock tick by as the lightning flash, it light the hold library up, in the middle of it. was him... the ancient one, the God of darkness Of whom Death is afraid, the first evil itself. Kalabhiti Tamish. who was free from his prison of the cures coffin thank to the masquerade queen, Ven Alexan and the man in red, Claud william.

reading a history book of what happen over 10,000 years ago when he was gone, the aftermath of the great 'good vs evil' war, the rebuild of Lomhills, the betrayal of queen molly maplefield, and the quiet civil war. he put the book down and Lay his hand on his skull, thinking deeply of all he read so far, and his thoughts are...

'man, their history is... something' he took a look around him library to see if he lone 'look like I am. these 2 weeks have been interesting, so far it just remind me of sailor moon or just Magical girl in general because.' he re-open the book and filp a page to the great war 'so far it just a bunch of girl's with fancy dress holding wands and talking about power of friendship and kicking evil in the face. which it been done to death at this point and I want to called it pure cringe but due to the fact that l'm now look like something from a heavy metal cover and living in a fantasy land, I have to get used to this.'

he got up from his chair, moving his way to the window and watch the rain fall from the sky, hearing the grandfather clock tick by in the background, his mind start to go back on that day.

'why did it happen? those idiotas, did they have nothing better to do than end our own kind?.' he sigh turn his head to look at the clock, 6 PM. 'how long can I keep this act up before they found out that I am not him?... hopefully long enough to get away from them'

there was a knock at the library door "h-hello, lord Kalabhiti Tamish?", it open, showing a small imp wearing a butler outfit "um t-the dinner is almost ready sir." I turn my head to look who open the door, oh it just chet "I will be there in a minute or two, I just need to some things." chet nod his head and closed the door.

I look back at the window, seeing a lightning strike a tree and cash on fire with a loud thunderous roar "...I hope that is not a bad omen I just saw..."

I move my way to the tablet, grab the book and put it back on the shelf, I breathe in to build myself the courage to face... them. 'god damn it, why do I have to deal with them?. I really like bugs dude in this place but those two don't or don't even care about them, I even saw ven slap one of them for putting his hands on her dress.' I exhale and start to walk to the door 'just... all I need to do is find the right moment to get away from them, if they found out that I have no magic power, l'm going to die for a second.' open the door and start to move down the hallway, it look a few minutes to get to the dining hall, it's full of all different types of monsters, big, medium or small.

'and I am not going to let that happen to me.'

everyone turn to look at me when I walk in, move my way to the table of Claud and Ven. the monster move out the way for me and it was easy to find them two since they have 2 iron golem at their side. both of them are drinking wine together which I still don't understand of how Ven drink or eat when she have that full face masquerade mask on 24/7, it's creepy.

"oh! why hello there lord Tamish, lovely weather we are having today." ven said opening her hand fan and waving it front of her like it's a hot summer day.

"it is but I got to say it was bad timing for me" Claud drinking some wine "I send one of the beetle to check out of what happen to the mission scouting team, now it's been about... 5 or 6 hours since he report back."

I grab a chair to sit down and move up a bit "he most likely got lost since it's raining like hell outside, he most likely fine." turn my head to look at ven "how long before our dinner get here?"

"I will ask chet, lord Tamish" she snap finger, small foot steps can be somewhat hear throughout the dining hall as chet made his way to Ven. "yes miss ven?" she head pat him and closed her fan to get a good look at him "can you be a dear to check on the chief's to see how long before our food will be done?"

"I will, miss ven" he move his way to check on the chief's. he got stop half way a bug monster. "hey chet, have you seen todd?, Claud send him out in the woods to find out what happen to the other team in the woods. any updates on it?" I shake my head "no sir, i haven't hear any new from it."

"alright" the Mantis said "I keep asking around, his beetle's buddys are not happy about it, they keep saying the 'bunnyman' will get him." chet raise an eyebrow at that "the... bunnyman, sir?. the Mantis seem surprise by that "you haven't hear of the bunnyman before?, wow you must be overwork, chet."

chet now having an annoy look on his face "I know, being a butler for sir Claud william and miss Ven Alexan is a lot of work surprisingly." saying a sarcastic way, the Mantis is now just staring at him intensely "look l'm sorry but this bunnyman legend have been around for... like 7 or 8 months now?. the story goes some guy got lost in the black forest, had a run in with some with a bunny for a head, got chase down and when he got out the woods. an axe got throw in his back, his last dying breath saying a warning to some person who saw him get a axe in his back. of 'beware of a man with a bunny head'."

chet just... taking it all in, breathe in and out and said "that got to be the dumbest thing I ever hear. in my life."

Mantis crossed his arms "I know right, but that is what everyone is talking about nowadays. l'm going to back to asking around, good luck on what ever you are doing."

"same to you, good sir." chet move his way pass the Mantis to get to the chief's, finely made to the Kitchen, one of the chief. a Fox notice him when he open the door "hey chief, how have you been?"

"i've been good" chet reply to him "l'm here to check if the food for sir Claud william, miss Ven Alexan, and lord Kalabhiti Tamish is done?." the fox chief give him a smile in return "what good timing because it's done" he gave the tray to chet "one medium rare steak for lord Tamish, one Pasta alla Carbonara for sir Claud, and one Clafoutis for miss Ven Alexan. I got to that I'm happy that we stole those food recipes from them humans, they know how to cook some good food."

chet nod his head and move his way back to the 3 head leaders, lord Kalabhiti Tamish was the first person to notice "that was fast" he said.

"here you go, one medium rare steak, one Pasta alla Carbonara, and one Clafoutis for all three for you." lord Kalabhiti Tamish grab his fork and knives, cutting his steak into small pieces "thanks chet" he said.

"no problem lord Kalabhiti Tamish" was about to leave but he felt something tap on his shoulder, he turn his head to see it was Claud. 'look like he want something' chet said to himself

"hey chet, go play some music on the piano, it's a bit too noisily in here." chet put the tray under his arm and nod his head "right away sir" he move his way to the other side of the dining hall, giving the tray to one of the dog maids who took it, and made it to the piano. he took a seat at the stool, cracked his knuckles to play of the sir Claud favourite songs.

in the back of chet mind, for some reason, something in him tell him that this day just began.

---the red maples kingdom---

two guard siting in a watch tower, playing UNO to wait out the Heavy rain, "so" guard on left said. "Why Are We Here, Tandy?"

"I don't know bob, why are we here?. It's one of life's great mysteries isn't it?, I mean, are we the product of some cosmic coincidence, or the goddess put us here with a plan for us and stuff. I don't know man, but it keeps me up at night."

bob put his cards down to look at him with a worry look "no, not like that. I mean why are we still on our shift?, it suppose to be over and someone else to come here to take our spot. are you good dude?". Tandy look around to see if someone how anyone else has heard of what he said "oh that yeah l'm good."

bob just raise his eyebrows at him "are you sure?..." he just shrug his shoulder "yeah, yeah but" tandy grab one of his cards and put it down "now for you, get +4."

bob was shock of what he just saw "you... YOU SON OF A-" before he could finish, lightning strike almost the tower, costing both of them to jump out of their sit and scream there head off. "you know what" bob said throwing the cards on the ground "screw this human game, why did we pick this game in the first place?."

tandy just chuckle at that "well we had 3 things to do, counting the rain, play UNO, or talk about stuff... so we pick number 2." bob groan of what he just heard "I should have pick number 3, let's go with that." tandy grab the chair and took a seat on it again "sure, like have you hear of what happen with Minako the Flower Angel familiar?"

"a...familiar?" bob tilt his head of what he just heard "that is my first time hearing that, people usual called them 'mascot' or 'assistant'." tandy yawn and stretch his arms out "don't forget partner but yeah, people are calling them that because it's sound cool as I hear."

"really?" he start to pick up the cards off the ground "what that have to do with Minako familiar, tandy?" he hold his hand up "l'm getting there, now it all started with queen jasper maplefield, she invited Minako over for something, I don't remember what. two of them where talking about stuff, maybe about the weird things that been going on in the black forest or the blue rose keep. but... someone left the white wine out." bob put the cards in his pocket "oh no, I know where this is going."

"yep" tandy reply to him "Minako familiar, daisy. end up got drunk off the stuff and ran around the castle making a mess, it took half the day to get her. Minako left the castle out of embarrassmen" bob laugh his head off of what he just hear "NO WAY! i wish I was wake for that HAHAHA!."

"yeah same here... but um, do you just want to leave since no one else to comeing to take our spot?" tandy ask "way ahead of you pal" bob said "and who going to stop us?, the rain? HA!."

tandy smile at his partner 'today have been something, maybe I can ask someone if there still some beer left?', both of them made there their way to the door and left the tower.
