In the white space of emptiness Megu stood alone on the yellow brick road. With the vast empty surrounding seems to stretch to infinity and the path was nicely laid for her, it’s the most obvious decision was to follow the yellow brick road.
Time passed and the road seems like it was going on forever, Megu wasn’t sure if she walked for how many hours but she knew she walk for a very long time. Yet she never had any signs of exhaustion, even a short 5 minute walk to the abandon church gave her lots of problems due to her heart condition.
Megu kept walking until there was no road for her to walk; from a distance she saw something, with sliver hair, black wings, and black gothic clothes. Its back was facimg Megu knew very well
Megu: “Suigintou!”
The doll turned her head around with her back still facing Megu, Suigintou gave her a solemn smile. Her eyes revealed sadness as Megu stared at Suigintou’s eyes.
Suigintou: *Turns head away from Megu* “Goodbye…” *Walks away*
The words strike horror in the Medium’s heart, ‘goodbye’? Is Suigintou leaving her? Why?
Megu: “Suigintou wait!” *Runs towards Suigintou*
Megu ran as fast as she can, not knowing that she could run that fast. Ironically the doll’s walking speed was like 5 times fasting that Megu’s running. Megu is beginning to lose her companion.
Megu: *Still running* “Suigintou, don’t go! Don’t leave me!”
Megu quickly picked up her pace, determined to catch up with the doll.
Megu: *Getting closer to Suigintou* “We’ve made a promise! We promised that we will sore to the skies together! Please, don’t go!”
Megu reach out her right arm towards Suigintou, just a little bit more the girl thought. Then something stop her, vines appeared out of nowhere, entangled the helpless girl. Once again Megu is losing the doll again and there’s nothing she could do about it.
Megu: “Suigintou! Don’t go! SUIGINTOU!”

Bright morning sunshine forced Megu to open her eyes prematurely; images were blurred and hard to see. The first thing she looked was the window and saw a black shadowy figure standing there.
Megu: “Suigintou?”
Megu rubbed her eyes to focus but by that time the shadow was no more. From the window dropped a black feather towards her sickly girl. Megu took hold of it; it’s shiny, soft and full of warmth. She held the feather tightly and lay silent for a few seconds, Suigintou is still around. She took a deep breath and began her prayer for the dark angel’s return.
“Yume wa kaze (Dreams are the wind)
Hikari michibiku (Guided by light)
Sora to kumo wo koete yuku (Crossing the skies and clouds)
Anata no koe hibike (Your voice is echoing)”

Shinku and Suiseiseki arrived at the abandoned shop house; Kanaria would have tag along however time wasn’t on her side.
Micchan: “Kana~~~” (Cheek rubbing Kanaria)
Kanaria: “Eeeekk you’re going to set fire on my face ~kashira!!!”

The dolls entered the abandoned shop house and left the door open, they saw broken dolls everywhere. As they move further into a room where Enju used to make dolls, everything was covered with thorny vines with white roses.
“Tee hee hee hee…”
An eerie giggle echoed the whole room. Shinku readied herself cautiously.
Shinku: “Show yourself…do not hide like a coward.”
???: (Mocking tone) “A coward you say? Certainly not.”
Shinku: “So what are you then?”
???: “Who am…I? Turning~…”
Shinku: “Turning?”
???: “Turning~ turning~ turning~ turning…The wheel of fate is turning…”
Suiseiseki: “W-what are you babbling about ~desu?”
???: “You gave my belove one-sama endless grief and agony...”
Shinku/Suiseiseki: “Nani?”
???: “Your fate…is annihilation.”
At the end of the sentence the wall started cracking, there after ground shakes and the walls come crumbling down.
Shinku/Suiseiseki: “!!!!!”
The dolls were not expecting something like that, neither was a big chunk of the ceiling threatening to flatten them like pancakes in split seconds.
Shinku: “No!”
Suiseiseki: “Eeeeeek!!!” *Duck down and cover*
*CRASH!*
Oddly enough they never felt anything when the ceiling fell, when the dolls recover they themselves in a graveyard, noticeably there were two holes with tombstones from a distance.
???: “Welcome to my playground.” (Psychotic giggle)
Kirakishou reveal herself from the tombstone, revealing her usual sick smile. Her unpredictable eyes locked on to Shinku, who was believe to be the ‘bane’ of her beloved sister. Her face tensed up and her smile evaporated as her mind kept running with the same thought again and again, to destroy the 5th doll of the Rozen Maiden.
Kirakishou: *In a serious tone* “And your death bed.” *Point her finger at the feet of Shinku and Suiseiseki*
Shinku and Suiseiseki looked and the position pointed by Kirakishou, to their surprise they found the two graves that they saw early appear in front of them. Upon looking at the tombstones they found the words “Shinku” and “Suiseiseki” engraved on it. Without anytime given to ‘admire’ their grave, Kirakishou rush towards her preys with a vine whip at her hand. A swift swing of the whip knocked both Shinku and Suiseiseki back, who crashed into the other tombstones a dozen feet back.
Shinku: “What strength…”
Suiseiseki: “Ugh, she’s strong ~desu.”
With no time wasted, Kirakishou launch another attack at the dolls. This time she summoned her endless barrage of vines charging at the dolls, which Shinku and Suiseiseki bearly able to dodge them. Kirakishou continued her barrage which mainly targeted at Shinku, this gave Suiseiseki time to ready her watering can at the attacker.
Suiseiseki: “Eat this ~desu!” *Fires water projectile at Kirakishou”
The projectiles made a direct hit, which unfortunately served an annoyance to Kirakishou. The irritated 7th doll shift her attention at Suiseiseki.
Kirakishou: “Don’t interrupt me.” *fires the barrage at Suiseiseki*
Suiseiseki fires another projectile at the vine barrage, which dried up and withered as it made contact with the water. Suiseiseki immediately rush towards Kirakishou, dodging and blocking Kirakishou’s attacks until she was within melee range.
Suiseiseki: “HAA!” *Swinged the watering can at Kirakishou*
Kirakishou: “Useless.” *Stops the watering can with one finger*
Suiseiseki: *Surprise* “Nani-ARGH!!!” *Felt a strong force hitting her chest and sent crashing and rolling far away from Kirakishou* “…” *Outcold*
Kirakishou: “I’ll let you visit your twin soon enough.” *Readied her whip and dash towards Suiseiseki to finish her off, without realizing she forgot something important.*
Shinku: “Suiseiseki!” *Appears in front of Suiseiseki and parried Kirakishou’s whip with her cane*
Kirakishou: “Your timing was impeccable.” *Back step a few feet and began to use her new attack, white rose petals*
Shinku as well used her red rose petals, clashing with Kirakishou’s petals.
Kirakishou: *smirk* “How weak…”
In the end Kirakishou’s petals overpowered Shinku’s, pushing both Shinku and the unconscious Suiseiseki even further back. Shinku, heavily injured from the petal attack, selflessly using her body as a flimsy shield to protect Suiseiseki. Victory seemed certain for Kirakishou.
Kirakishou: “It’s time for you to disappear.” *Prepares another petal attack*
Shinku: “Tch.” *Prepared for the worse*
Kirakishou: “Goodbye.” *Launch the petals.*
Out of nowhere something appeared in front of the injured dolls and stopped the attack, the rose petals being cut to little pieces and the graveyard rained with pieces of the rose petals. Shinku’s and Kirakishou’s eyes widened as they a black winged figure standing in between them.
Kirakishou: “Onee-sama?”
Shinku: “Suigintou?”
