It was too bad she had to head back home now. All that was waiting for her were her overly-protective mother and father who would just make her head straight back to bed. The hot pink ribbon holding up her hair suddenly let itself go and the breeze carried it down an alleyway. "Hey, wait!" Saku said, chasing after it down the alleyway until she caught it with her boot and picked it up at the end of the alley. "Bad ribbon!" She scolded. She was about to tie her hair back up when something caught her eye. It was the front of a shop she'd never seen before, but it was selling one of her favorite things; dolls. She stuffed the ribbon into her skirt pocket and hurried over to it, staring with wide eyes into the window.
After just a few seconds, she pulled open the door and stepped in, her lips slightly parted with awe. She let out a light giggle and made her way over to one of the walls and her eyes slowly moved up, examining all of the dolls on the shelves. She'd never seen so many beautiful little dolls before.
Suddenly it struck him that he was a boy who could be mistaken for a girl who just walked into a doll shop. No matter how much he didn't like it, it was pretty obvious what a person would think about that.
"Ah, I don't like dolls. It's for my sister," he explained to the man. "I'm serious. Stop looking at me like that!"
He then went towards his other customer and smiled gently, "How may I help you, young lady?"
"All right. Fine. I guess I'll just get one for myself then...
"This one's nice..." he said, plucking it lightly from where it stood.
"Thanks," he said simply. He didn't really know what else to say, so he just smiled again at the girl before looking at the shopkeeper bustling around at the counter.

The candy that the shopkeeper had offered him was still sitting on the desk. Rahls had no intention of taking it, but with the shopkeeper smiling at him in that infuriating way and looking rather expectant, he took the candy, peeled off the wrapper, and popped it into his mouth. He was about to get out as quick as possible, in case the candy really was drugged or something, and then he remembered the small girl standing behind him. He sighed. For him, it was nigh on impossible to let something happen to her while he got as far away as he could. So he smiled his sweetest, most girl's smile at the shopkeeper and proceeded to look around at the dolls in the shop.
Rahls sat up. After a fall like that, it had to have been at least a hundred meters from his guess, there was no way he could have lived, whether or not he had used his skull to land. His body, though, disagreed, seeing as it refused to be even the least bit injured. Deciding to leave that alone for the moment, he looked around. Above him there was only a tunnel of darkness, but gazing out of where he had landed, he only saw a corridor of doors, though his vision was still a bit blurry.
"What the..." he said as another thought occurred to him. "Oh... Once I get my hands on that son of a..." he stood up and envisioned snapping the shopkeeper's neck. Wherever this was, he had apparently been right when he thought it was a trap... At least, that's what he thought. It could be something else, but that was the thing that made the most sense right now.
Opening the door, she caustiously stepped through, comming into a corridor with even more of the exact same identical doors except this was a proper, stone corridor. "...You're kidding me..."
POOF!
They landed on one of the pillows and started walking towards one room. The Shop Keeper looked at Blood, "Start the music, Blood the Pied Piper except you use your guitar." Soon a rocking music came and the Shop Keeper sat down at a near by throne and smirked, "The game is about to start, hm?"

Blood nodded and started to play again as well as sing...
An island off the coast of nowhere
A new destination of your own creation
Just waiting till you choose to go there..."
"The hell..?" he whispered. H couldn't see any speakers, but that was probably normal. Or... Could it be that... He shook himself. He would think about this calmly and rationally... So he went to one of the doors and, whispering a small reassurance to himself, threw it open.
Was she still dreaming? This all seemed too real to her. "Mom? Dad?" she said loudly, her light voice echoing around the room. She was nervous now and the dark bothered her. "Shiro...where are we?" She whispered to her doll as she stood up and held it to her chest with one arm. The other stayed at her side with her hand bawled into a nervous fist.
An island off the coast of nowhere"
She spun around, trying to figure out where the song was coming from. "Hey! Is anyone there?!" She yelled, but her voice just echoed back to her with no reply. She took a deep breath and approached one of the doors; a large, light purple one with gold trimmings and swirling gold imprints around its edges with the center clear of any design.
As she turned the gold knob and pushed the door open, the sound grew louder and she squinted at the light coming from the room.

She did her best to pin point where the sound was coming from and moved to go that way placing yarn bows on the door nobs so she could find her way back. Something about this place put her on edge in two different ways. Than she stopped thing are never what they are and they are what they not. The walls....she move running a hand over one and using her other hand to knock to see if she could find a door.
After all the doors had opened and were very slowly closing, she stood from where she started, panting. Megan tried her luck shouting again, now that more doors were open, maybe someone would hear her? "Hello!! I.. I need help!!!"
