[.Meeting Misaki Haruka.](Misaki)

[Lianna]

Lianna, was personally quite grateful for the fact that there was this secret room. Her soft brown hair was pulled into a ponytail, as she began cleaning up the secret room. She sighed, and finished cleaning up within a couple of hours. She only had a few minutes left until Misaki came in. She checked to make sure everything was good, and smiled a bit.

"Lookin' good...." she murmured.

[Misaki Haruka]

Misaki had a hard time navigating this tunnel,so many different path's to take but finally she got her barings right.These tunnels seemed ancient,and she didn't want to go into the basement from her house because of all the things down there and the different devices.In truth she was kind of scared at first,but managed to buck up the courage and just open the trap door and climb down into the tunnel.In her hands she held a torch,then came into the room to see a young girl.

"Hello I am Misaki Haruka.....".

Her voice kind of squeaked,as she heard something in the tunnel.Quickly darting into the room,she took the torch in her hand putting it in a rest on the side of the wall.Then taking a seat,she brushed out the wrinkles in her dress and waited for Lianna to speak.So this was the Mistress of that other house,she seemed so young and adorable.

"I think it would have been better,if brother would have come".

[Lianna]

"Possibly" Lianna replied "But...I wanted to meet you first" She smiled and blinked as Masaya came in after Misaki. His shackles weren't on him but he didn't look too rested. "..Hello" Lianna said, smiling at him.

Masaya bowed "You must be Lianna Kerrington, I am Masaya" He stated, taking the seat next to Misaki, placing his head in his hands and staring at the table.

[Misaki Haruka]

"Master Masaya,how did you get away from brother".

She could tell from his face,that he hadn't gotten a good night's sleep.Was it because Akihiko was....well,she didn't want to think about that.The matter at hand right now was how to lift these curses,and how could they have missed something like this right under they're own houses it just didn't make sense.

"Miss Lianna,I found a book and it explained about this secret tunnel was it the same for you".

This meant that they could travel between houses,the curse would not effect them unless you actually walk through the front gates.But from the way that Miss.Lianna was dressed she seemed so young,was that the curse her house had hanging over her.Misaki didn't mean to stare,but she was expecting someone older.

"Has this strange evil,tainted your house".

[Lianna]

"The curse over my house has made us all into..Lolita dolls, so to speak" Lianna replied "I am..in fact twenty two..." She smiled gently "However, because I keep everyone happy, the darker part of the curse has yet to affect us" She sighed. "But, one of my favorite girls found the book, and showed me so, I'm glad you found it too. This way we can meet, and not be turned to dust"


"....With great difficulty" Masaya replied sullenly to Misaki, his voice otherwise void of emotion.

[Misaki Haruka]

"The curse is dark over our house,my brother is cruel and cold".

Misaki knew that was because of the curse,some of the people who have come to Harkua mansion are cruel as well.There used to be a time where people came,they had a choice if they wanted to leave or stay but now it's like they we're all bound to the house and couldn't even go out or anything.When Lianna said how old she was,Misaki almost fell off the chair and then the mention of lolita dolls.

"So yours is different then,but have everyone changed to Lolita dolls".

There had to be some people who resisted it,not everyone would want to be turned into that.The young miss then turned to Masaya,she frowned seeing at how drained he was.What did Akihiko do to him.

[Lianna]

Lianna frowned a bit "Perhaps if he comes down here he will be back to himself" She stated thoughtfully. Blinking as Masaya put his head on the table. She walked over to him,and pushed him up, and checked his forehead "He's got a fever" She stated, looking worried.


"It's nothing" Masaya replied tonelessly, frowning at Lianna, then sighing heavily. He was paler than usual, and his chocolate gaze was duller than dull.

[Misaki Haruka]

"Oh no,that is not good".

Misaki was worried even more,how did he get a fever.He needed some medicine,or needed to lay down or something.How come she hadn't noticed this before,standing up she looked around the room and found something he could lay on.Helping him up from the chair,the young miss led Masaya over to a bench or something in the corner of the room.

"Miss.Lianna,can you get some medicine please he needs it".

[Lianna]

Masaya waved them away "I'm fine" He protested, frowning "I'm just a bit warm..nothing to worry about." The LAST thing he wanted was Misaki to worry about him.

Lianna nodded, and rushed out, coming back with a first aid kit from her mansion "These come in handy" She said cheerfully and opened it up, after putting it on the table. It was bigger than it looked.

[Misaki Haruka]

"But Masaya,you have a fever.....what did brother do to you".

There was only so many ways to get a fever,how could she not be worried about someone who was like family to her.She looked over to the first aid kit,how was this going to help Masaya out was there something in there she was going to use to cool him down or something.

[Lianna]

Lianna took out an instant cold pack, and worked at it a little, and the coolness was felt in her hands, she walked over to Masaya and looked at him "keep this on your forehead" She said, after wrapping it up.

Masaya sighed heavily "I've just got a bit of a cold....that's all" He stated, his features pale. "It's nothing to worry about!"

[Misaki Haruka]

"What do you mean nothing to worry about,you shouldn't even have a fever".

Misaki took a seat back at the table,in her mind Masaya shouldn't have even come down here if he wasn't feeling too good.The young miss of the Haruka mansion doesn't need to be followed or babysat,and besides it's not like her brother is down here having this little social chat with Miss.Lianna no it's her and her alone.

"Do you think there is a way,to well.......lift the curses".

But Miskai was at a loss right now,she doesn't even know how the curses began or even when they we're cast over the two households.All she knows is if someone tries to escape or leave,then they are turned to dust as soon as they leave out the gates or worse disapper.

[Lianna]

Lianna's kind expression grew grave, and serious, a rather startling look on her otherwise soft, and childish features. She sighed heavily "One of the so-called slaves at my house..named Pepper, has been searching high and low in all our bookshelves for something..anything, to release the curse...but..we have not found anything..." She sat down and Masaya sighed heavily.


Masaya frowned a bit "...It's odd..but no one ever gets sick in the cursed houses..How come I am?" He asked, taking a tissue out of his pocket and sneezing. "I don't get it...is the curse lifting by itself?" He asked.

Lianna looked directly at him "...You know Masaya-san..that's highly possible...but...for some...it may have dire results...."

[Misaki Haruka]

"But it can't be,the curse can't be lifting".

That wasn't possible because they still couldn't leave the mansion,some had tryed and they turned to dust.She puffed out her cheeks and gave a pouty look,the people healed quickly from cuts and stuff but for her and Akihiko it was a little different.And she had gotten sick once when under the curse,so it was possible to get ill.

"Nuh uh......no way,people get sick".
