As lilli had gotten out of the car ben had returned to her shadow allowing people to suggest that she came on her own and no one else occupying the passenger side ‘this place looks ominous, like something wrong is going to happen’ she thought as she opened the large gate in front of her and made her way to the door while she gripped the handle of her case in one hand and the letter that was sent to her in the other, when she made it to the door she took a deep breath before knocking “maybe they didn't hear?” ben asked while she tried again and waited for someone to open the door and when it did the opened door revealed a girl with blonde hair that stopped at her shoulders with bright sherbert pink eyes, she wore brown shorts that reached her knees with a long sleeved shirt that revealed her collarbones and shoulders while she wore tall brown boots on her feet, the girl had a look of confusion and worry as she looked at lilli.

She saw that lilli was wearing a powder green outfit with hints of blue in the mix, there was a shirt that had sleeves that reached the top of the elbows with a ruffled layer at the end, on top of the shirt was a white vest with stitching down two sides with wide straps while connected from the arm slits of the sleeves was a thin white chain with small teardrops in white, the shirt and vest was tucked into a pair of powder green shorts that were folded up and stitched to thigh length with a thin white line going around the bottom,with a deep brown belt that had two thin white chains and some teardrops hanging from the belt securing everything in place, under the shorts were a pair of thin black tights while she wore a pair of black ankle boots with a decorative zip on the outside, her hair was left down with her two long strands tied back with a saggy powder green bow.

After a short silence lilli decided to pipe up “hello, my name is lilli shikabane. Is this the Sakamaki residence?” she asked with a polite smile on her face causing the girl to blush in embarrassment “huh, uh-- yes. My name is Yui Komori, come in” yui introduced herself before allowing lilli inside, when she stepped inside a voice piped up “oi, Pancake. What are you doing? Who is that?” the voice asked as their voice echoed in the hall only seeing the back o lillis head “A-ayato-kun!” yui gasped in surprise at the presence of the male ‘ayato? Is that one of that man's kids?’ lilli thought as she closed the door instead of yui and turned around, when she turned around she was met with a male who had pale skin with bright red hair and bright green eyes and as for his clothes he was wearing a uniform unlike yui and it was a total mess, his shirt was almost if not fully undone, he had one trouser leg down while the other was rolled up and his tie was wrapped around his neck and left dangling.

As she turned around, ayato's eyes slightly widened at her appearance, blue and indigo heterochromatic eyes with black hair that had faint hints of blue and purple he was sure that there was a kid with that appearance arriving at the mansion years ago however he shook the thought away and went back to his usual self as a smirk painted his face “another bride, eh? Well, yours truly will have your first” he spoke smugly as he walked over grabbing her by the shoulders pushing her into the wall while leaning down to her neck “hey, get off of me! Is this how you welcome people?!” she shouted as she tried pushing ayato by the shoulders trying to get him away from her, yui was startled and had tried to get ayato off her as well when a new voice had piped up getting their attention as the voice looked in their direction.
