[color=a2d39c]Outside of the hotel, a glimmering dimensional gate (basically a glorified portal) swirling in different colors opened up. From within its depths, 3 different voices, all female, could be heard getting closer and closer until 3 girls in extravagant dresses and witch hats flew out of it on different brooms. Okay, well, the blonde girl in all blue and the girl with purple hair in darker colors flew their tissue and raven feather brooms respectively, like normal witches might. The last one to exit the portal, the brown-haired girl in the most colorful dress flew out riding her paintbrush broom like a surfboard, crying out and giggling with absolute glee like a child. All 3 witches, though they were Grand Witches and the goddesses of their own dimension, only looked to be about in their mid or late teens, age-wise. Of course, that didn't mean they were. No one really knew how old they truly were. Only that these three Grand Witches specifically were chronicled as the main three of their dimension, the "Eighth Reality", and that they were pretty good friends. "Ah, we're here! Yay! Time to party, you guys!" The colorful witch plopped down into a sitting position on her broom like the other two with a grin. "Persephone, please tell me you did not just drag us here for a stupid party. So help me god, I will use your broom like a golf club and hit you so far away..." The witch with purple hair growled. The snake familiar curled around her waist hissed in agreement. "Y-you guys, please don't fight..." The smallest of the three witches, the one in mostly blue, frowned. "I'm sorry...is it because I'm here?" After that last comment, the teardrop familiar at the end of her hat squeaked in protest, looking upset. "Kanashiko, you have absolutely nothing to apologize for!" Persephone laughed. "And Ruitsume, you need to calm yourself! No, we're not just here for a party. That'd be waaaay too boring. No, we're here for an adventure! You see, I've heard some pretty cool things about this world, "Shava", which we're in now. I thought it'd do us some good to get out of the house and go explore some!" "Get out of the house?" Ruitsume looked unamused. "Take a break from the Eighth Reality, I mean." Persephone clarified. "But...who's taking over our jobs if we're gone...?" Kanashiko murmured. "Ah, don't worry. Remember those couple of weeks you didn't see me? That's because I was working on drawing up and bringing to life clones of us to take over our jobs in our absence! Takes a lot out of me to make such complex creatures, you know. I had to sleep. A lot." Persephone explained. "Great. How are we supposed to differentiate our clones from us?" Ruitsume raised a brow. "I knew this would come up, so I permanently drew on the word "CLONE" in big capital letters on their bodies. Specifically on their leg. The left one." Persephone said. "...And if they act just like us, how do I know you're not the clone right now?" Ruitsume narrowed her eyes. "Are you saying you wanna check under my dress to find out? My, I didn't think you were that kind of person, Rui-" Persephone didn't get to finish before Ruitsume had hopped off of her broom and used it as a bat to knock Persephone off of hers onto the ground. "Ohhhh, they're fighting..." Kanashiko began to tear up. "It's all my faaauuuullllttt....."[/color]
