Alexiel's Missing?!

Reaching Abelard Mansion

Meanwhile, the sun has gone down and the group are back on track to the Abelard mansion.

Gatt: We're nearly there now.

Riliane: Hang on for just a little bit more, Alexiel.

Deep-Sea Girl: Whoa. That mansion looks like it has a lot of rooms.

Riliane: Looks like we're going to have to split up.

Gumillia: Alexiel might be upstairs. But you have to watch out for the Fifth Pierrot, Julia, and that cat.

Elluka: Let's head in. We're going to have to sneak in though.

Using her magic, Elluka opened the door. The group went inside.

Edward: This is a nice mansion.

Deep-Sea Girl: Yep. Perfect for a killer.

Mr. Gills: So, there's 1...2...3...there's 10 of us. So each of us can go upstairs and find Alexiel.

Mrs. Gills: But we're going to have to be quiet.

Deep-Sea Girl: Alright. Let's go.

Meanwhile, Margarita was looking in room after room for Alexiel.

Margarita: Where are you, Alexiel?

???: And just what are you doing here, Third Sleep Princess?

Margarita gasped and saw Julia Abelard. She had white hair in braids and she was wearing a red dress with a black cloak over her head.

Margarita: Stay away from me!

Julia: It seems you have nowhere to go, my dear.

Suddenly, fire grew around Margarita's feet, burning them.

Julia: Want to be burned to ashes, do you?

Margarita screamed bloody murder as she was burned alive. She dropped the sleeping potion, breaking it into a million pieces.

Julia: You're not alone, Margarita...

Meanwhile, Elluka was looking in different doors.

Elluka: This is starting to get tedious.

She opened another door and there was the red cat, sleeping.

Elluka: (in French) Shit.

She tried to sneak around the room without waking up the cat, but the cat already opened its eyes and hissed at the pink-haired sorceress.

Julia: What did my pretty fish up, huh?

Elluka saw Julia in the doorway.

Elluka: Stay back, Julia!

Julia: You wouldn't want to use your magic on me, Seventh Magician. That kind of stuff could get you in serious trouble.

Elluka was suddenly brought up in the air by her neck, choking her.

Julia: Looks like you're not going anywhere.

Elluka felt the other woman's grip on her neck getting tighter and tighter until she couldn't breathe at all. Julia dropped the sorceress's neck. The cat meowed and climbed on Julia's shoulders.

Julia: 2 down...

Meanwhile, Gumillia was looking in a hallway for either Julia or the Fifth Pierrot.

Gumillia: Where are you bastards?

She found a door she hasn't tried yet. She opened the door and inside she found a boy sleeping on a bed.
