Chapter 3

Miku's P.O.V.

"Pay you back? What do you mean Len?" Rin asked.

"She owes me some money. Its a long story, "the blonde haired guy replied.

"Oh...I see, "my yellow haired friend answered. Rin let out a relieved sigh and smiled.

"You thought I was cheating on you for a second, didn't you?" Len assumed.

"Yep!" Rin admitted.

"Alright couplets! Now gimme my apples and I'll lead you to Gumi-san's route!" Teto announced.

"Teto! Couplets are rhyming sentences! The word is couples, not couplets!" I told our devil-tailed friend, "Plus, there is just one couple in this area!"

Saying that, I threw two apples into the air. Teto caught them, one with her mouth and other other one with her tail. To my suprise, the pose she was doing was quite amazing! Her tail was straight like a frightened dog's and her face made an angry lion's expression.

"Nice flying pose Ted, "Len mentioned.

"Mfft num ib mwat Fed! Fed ib dwa bwon pew mi penmwat pworgwiv!" Teto mumbled. (translation: My name is not Ted! Ted is the one who I cannot forgive!)

"What? Muffins are able to eat devils?" Len guessed.

Len's P.O.V.

The devil girl just flew away munching on apples, pissed at me. Rin and Miku folllowed, so I stalked them, after all I had to protect Miku-I mean Rin from other people. Soon, the pink haired girl led us to a dead end.

"Teto-chan, are you sure you led us to the right path?" Rin asked.

Nodding, Ted spoke, "Mhm. Now all I have to do is find it..."

I took a step foward to the area that wasn't dusty at all. To my suprise, the ground shook when I took that action.

Miku's P.O.V.

After the minor earthquake, I saw stairs leading down the area. Strangely, it looked really familar, but I couldn't tell where I saw it. Did it have to do with my not-able-to-remember last name?

"Aha! there it is!" Teto assured. She flew down the revealed stairway, and we followed. Rin and Len had their own reasons. I had a couple of them. I forgot most of them, though.

Rin's P.O.V.

I noticed that Len was looking at Miku a lot. "He probably wants to become friends with her, "I assumed in my head. Just then, I noticed Teto stopping her flight in the air and landed on the ground.

"Watch out, there are a lot of traps in here, "the girl with a devil's tail warned, "So follow what I do. If you fail, you die."

I gulped. Teto was never serious this before. She wasn't acting at all; I can tell. Her usual red, cheery eyes were turned into serious ones. This was one dangerous secret passage.

Len's P.O.V.

Rin, Miku, and I followed how Teto jumped and slid in specific directions. Once, I jumped and pushed off a rock. Amazingly, a door with needles inside opened. Even a skull was laying there stuck on one of the needles.

"Rin! "Miku called, "Stop it right there! there's an axe above you about a feet ahead!"

"Ah! Arigatou Miku-chan! You saved me!" Rin responded with a smile.

"No problem! I have sharp eyes so-"

My eyes widened as Miku fell into a door on the ground. Soon, I found myself screaming "Miku!" real loud with myself plunging in the door to save her. Of course, my hand was out of control, too, since it was stretching towards the ponytailed girl without my message to.

Teto's P.O.V.

I was paralyzed for awhile (for some reason). I couldn't move; even farting was impossible.

"Teto! What happend to Miku and Len? Do something..." Rin told me as she stood crying. The trap door behind them closed, and there was no way to determine if they were alive or dead. Luckily, my 6th sense told me that they were still in flesh and was fresh (hey that rhymes! :D).

"Rin-neechan, they're alive! My 6th sense tell me so! If we find Gumi-san, then I'm sure she'll help us get them out!" I said confidently.

Rin stopped crying and smiled saying, "Teto, lets use your special senses now to find Gumi, and get my friends out as soon as possible!"

"Roger~" I answered as I flew again. From this point on, there was no deadly traps. We were close to Gumi-san's secret room.

Miku's P.O.V.

"Hey mom, can I help you with cooking again?" I asked cheerfully.

"Sure thing~ But I won't let you touch the fire yet, so can you bring me some materials from the market instead? Daddy's preparing the table for your friend to come over, so he's too busy to get them, "a lady with blue hair told me.

"Okay~ I'll be right back mommy!" I spoke.

"Becareful, okay?"

"Hai~"

The dreamland suddenly vanished. After that, all I heard was a boy's voice calling my name...

"Miku! Miku! Are you alive?" the voice questioned me.

When I got a clear sight of what was around me, I realized it was Len, the banana haired guy who possessed my hand earlier today.

Miku: *takes out a hammer* LEN! NOW LET ME GET REVENGE ON YOU! I FAILED LAST TIME MAN!

Rin: Miku! Put that down!

A.S.: *sighs* Miku, if you murderer him now, the story won't continue.

Len: NOOOOOOO MIKU DONT KILL ME I-

A.S.: Len protected you from the fall. Be thankful.

Miku: Okay :T

Rin: So, anyone want bread or tea?

Teto: OOH! GIMME APPLES!

Rin: We ran out. Here, have this instead :O *stuffs bread inside Teto's mouth*

Teto: *chews and swallows bread* People, my favorite food is now bread. So stop giving me apples. Bl

That's it for today :D Thank you for reading again~ ^-^
