Mei: Of course.

A gap in reality opened up in front of them. Through it was the Scarlet Devil Mansion.

Mei: After you all, I have to close this thing behind me.

Teyla: Right. Follow me!

She valiantly marched through the gap.

--------------------

Then Addy, then Soap, then Kin, and finally Mei. They walked past the sleeping Hong Meiling, and up to the front door, where they knocked.

Teyla: Helooo!!

--------------------

Teyla: Thank you.

She bowed slightly and they entered. Everyone was there. It appeared Reimu and Sanae were arm wrestling at a table. Yukari, Ran, and Chen were all sitting at another, drinking tea. It looked to be an awesome party so far.

--------------------

Teyla: It's okay really. I only know a handful personally, the rest I've merely heard about. Go talk to people and make friends. It isn't that hard... start with Reimu over there after she beats Sanae.

Teyla pointed.

Teyla: Serious back at her shrine, but usually outgoing, so yeah.

As the others made their way to the party, Teyla waited, smiling, waiting for Kate to go too. She had a plan.

--------------------

Teyla: And with that~

She disappeared, off into the basement.

---

Addy: Chen.

Chen: Adelaide.

They glared at eachother. One could swear lightning was jumping between their eyes.


--------------------

Sanae kept her expression, Reimu smiled.

Sanae: Hello.

Reimu: Hi.

---

Orin: Now now, you two don't need to fight.

Addy: Quiet pigtails. Little miss bitter orange over here is asking for it.

Chen: Shut up, gaijin.

Addy: ...

A catfight was brewing.

---

The SDM basement.

Teyla: She's bound to be around here somewh- Oh! There. Yo, Marisa.

Marisa: Yo.

Teyla: I see Patchy barricaded the door.

Marisa: Yeah, I need a way in without getting caught, ze.

Teyla: Hmmm....

--------------------

Orin grabbed them by the back of their dresses.

Orin: Seriously. Stop. You guys are at a party here.

She recieved a light shock from Addy and was forced to let go.

---

Soap: Yo.

Teyla: Gack!

Marisa: Hey, ze.

Teyla: ... Soap, what are you doing here?

Soap: Soap come visit Patchy.

Teyla: She replaced the door with a large stone one.

Soap: No big problem. Breaking Point.

there was no more door.

--------------------

A spiral of green energy appeared on Addy's arm, and an ominous purple glow appeared on Chen's.

---

Reimu: Sure. Be careful though, I train with an oni~

---

Patchouli: *cough cough* mukyuu..... *cough* Who's there?...

Soap: Soap here!

Patchouli: ... Oh. I thought it was that black white rat to steal my books again.

Soap: No. She no around.

Patchouli: Good.

Marisa: Thanks for using those eyes of yours to hide us, ze.

Teyla: No problem- Oh. Hang on. My shikigami is using my power... ~Hey, Mei?~

---

Mei: Oh, sorry Kin, Teyla is telepathically trying to talk to me or something... Hey, Teyla, what's up? Huh? What's Addy doing? Looks like she's about to get in a big fight with Chen.... Uhuh... Sure. I could do that. Hang on.

She reached into a gap, and pulled something out. She walked over, and squirted Chen and Addy with a squirtbottle. The powers they were borrowing from their masters quickly faded away, as did their access to their magic.

Mei: Meizuki used water gun! Shikigami are weak against water attacks you know~

Addy: Ack! What's that for!?

Mei: Your mistress told me to stop you, and Chen, I doubt Ran would like you getting into a fight at a party.

Chen: ....

--------------------

Reimu grinned. She was a little drunk too. For more gusto.

---

Soap: Hrmm... Patchy no have any books in Chinese.

Patchouli: They're magic books anyways. You can't read them.

Soap: There normal books in here too from outside world.

Patchouli: Yes...

Soap: But they Japanese. Boring. Dramas. Etc. You also have English magazine.

Patchouli: ...

Soap: Addy might like though. Mind if Soap take?

Patchouli: As long as they aren't the magic books then yes.

Soap: Okay. Thanks.

She walked out. The invisible magic book thieves, Teyla and Marisa, right behind her.

Soap: No forget deal airen.

Teyla: Right right, I'll draw you some ecchi, just don't keep bringing it up.

Soap: Soap want ecchi of you and Kate.

Teyla: ...

It was gonna be a long night.
