Deep in the Misty Mountains

In a bright flash, the group found themselves standing outside, the sun beaming down overhead.

"Ahh!" Daki cried, the fear of burning to a crisp overwhelming her facade for a moment before Trevor jumped to her, tossing his coat her to protect her as she looked like she couldn't figure out whether to shove him away and risk certain painful **** or cling tightly to his shadow.

"Oh, no need to worry about those kinds of things while you're here. Afterall, it wouldn't be a good look if you turned into a smoldering corpse on the sidewalk. Boss's powers will keep you safe for the most part." One of the cherubs exclaimed, causing Daki to shove Trevor away, for face a light red as the other girls smirked at her.

Deciding to make the most of her temporary insanity, she glanced up at the ball of light hanging in the sky. "Really, this is what has demons running in terror? It's so... so, so plain. Why would anyone enjoy something like that, the night sky is much prettier, one shining jewel surrounded by lots of little peasant stars." Daki muttered as the group turned away from her muttering and back to the twin cherubs.

"What do you think, shall we start with the big one first?" Alex asked Elly.

"Why not, you want to take point? I'll cover the rear, but not too much, cameras are still rolling." The twin giggled as one started floating slightly off the ground, leading down a pathway towards a large building, while the other quietly followed as the group trotted along.

"Ohh, look at the waterfall, and the shops, I see a chocolate shop, and a bookstore, Mai would love that, a dress shop, a... uhmm, let's keep going." Ty Lee spurted, turning away with a heavy blush, which was mirrored by several of the other girls as they spotted what was undeniably a sex toy shop boasting every flavor of dildo, literally, the sign had cherry, lime, orange, and coconut all listed.

"Yes, this little village is part of the onsite hotel, although you'll be staying up here, feel free to come down and explore during the day, go on dates with the Master, or just to have fun. There's lots of shops to spend your BP at buying beautiful clothes or various advantages in the game." Elly explained happily.

"Of course, you'll have to pay to unlock them, but Boss already went over that." Alex added from in front of them, tiny wings fluttering slowly.

"Alex, can I ask a question while we walk? Why do you call Cam that... 'Boss'? I mean, I get it, but you sound very uncertain." Ino asked from just in front of Trevor.

"Well, first of all I'm Elly, the girl perving on your butts is Alex." The more boyish of the pair said while the softer one waved her hand from the back. Rather than wait for the question, Elly turned back to the tour, starting up a small flight of stairs. "My name is short for Elliot,"

"And I'm Alexis,"

"And as for why we're named that way, we like it, it confuses people." Both twins giggled childishly, Ty Lee joining in.

"As for why we call Cam 'Boss', I don't suppose any of you speak Enochian?" Seeing a plethora of negative responses, Elly turned back to the short climb, nearing the top already.

"It's because we can't go around calling them 'creator'." The word felt like slime falling off their skin as most shivered. "Yeah, see, anyways, calling them Father or Mother would also start to cause problems, so we collectively settled on Boss."

"So, he's your parent?" Mafuyu chimed in from the back, lost among the crowd due to her short stature.

"Something like that, but that's the problem with those labels, most beings don't see it the way we do, I take it you're largely unaware of angelic procreation?" Elly asked, pausing just at the top as the group waited.

"No, but I'd love to hear about it." Bambi was surprisingly the one to launch an inquiry.

"They don't, that's the answer, angels are forbidden from having sex and subsequently having children. So they reproduce by other methods, I believe you would call the word... mitosis?" Elly stated as he started walking again, the group cresting over the rise as a large building came into view.

"Anyways, you didn't come here for a lesson in angelic biology, so let me be the one to-"

"Welcome to the Harem Hotel!" Alex cut in, appearing next to her brother.

"Come on, there's so much to show you guys!" Alex cheered, running ahead as a few girls followed, like Ty Lee, Kurumu, and Ai, the image of girls on vacation, while the rest followed Elly, who rolled his eyes.

"Well, where shall we begin, we have the lobby, there's not much in here, 'cept the wishing fountain, you can spend a BP to make a wish, may come true, who knows?" The cherub led the smaller group through a set of open doors, finding themselves in a homey dining room.

"This is the dining room where you'll be expected to eat your meals, breakfast starts promptly at 7:00 until 10:00, any later and you'll have to fend for yourself. Breakfast starts in 30 minutes, so we better get a move on." Elly said, pushing his way back through the crowd.

"Excuse me, you said in 30 minutes, just how early is it?" Pixie groaned, never a morning person.

"Hmm, oh, I guess the Boss didn't get around to explaining the time dilation while you're here. Strange, she must have been really nervous, she stayed up for days rehearsing her lines. Regardless, since most of you have busy lives to get back to, we at Harem Hotel use advanced magic to... time passes quicker in here than out there. It may feel like hours, but it's only been thirty minutes, your bodies are probably still getting used to the shift." Elly explained, heading towards an elevator in the center of the lobby, only for the stampede of giggling girls to nearly flatten him.

"Guys, there's a pool, and a tennis court, and a gym." Ty Lee announced.

"And a spa, on-site kitchen, and a lounge!" Kurumu added.

"Plus, a flower garden, conser... concert... sunroom, not to mention the gift shop!" Ai finished, all three girls gleaming with joy.

"Geez, leave some mystery Alex, anyways, yes, the Hotel does come with a number of facilities, all of which are readily available, unlike the shoppes down in the village. Now then, shall we get to the highlight, in my opinion, of the Harem Hotel experience?" Elly inquired, not awaiting an answer as he entered the elevator, which looked much too small to fit the group.

"Idiots, it's like they forgot why we're here just because it all has a fancy dressing on it." Shalltear muttered as she filed into the now expansive box.

"The weeks will go as thus, each of you girls will take turns entertaining the Master, usually via a date followed by 'dessert'. The order will be set by your rankings within the HHPP, #1 gets first night, you will be staying overnight so anything you might want to entice the master should be brought with you, don't count on one of us or Boss cutting you any slack. You will then rotate, #2 gets second night, so on and so forth. At the end of the week, you will have a Challenge, could be anything from a gameshow to a pentathlon so consider that when getting ready. Depending on how you place, you will either gain or lose VP so if you're not feeling confident, maybe try to build up a buffer through other methods." Elly lectured as the girls talked among themselves.

"Welcome to the second floor, the wings!" Alex smiled, gesturing in all directions as she led the contestants out. "Never Eat Soggy Waffles, I like waffles so let's start with the West Wing!" Alex yelled, charging off towards a set of double doors a scant twenty feet away, throwing them open with reckless abandon. The West Wing boasts all the classics like TV, that's all I can think of." Alex giggled.

"I sweat sometimes I wonder which part you came from... Anyways, as she was saying all the rooms come mostly the same, so I'll cover the specialties, the West Wing has a perfect view of the sunset just out of your window and has a small balcony so you can bask under the night sky." Elly informed the group, turning to leave already.

"The East Wing has an overlook of the garden, as my sweet sister revealed already, plus the best view of the river that passes by. Follow me." Elly speaking with a clipped tone as he turned, heading for the South Wing.

"Now the South Wing is my personal favorite, it comes fully equipped sound dampening walls, so you can get as loud as you want without worrying about disturbing your neighbors and vice-versa. And now the piece-de-resistance."

"But I thought you designed the West Wing, that's why I wanted to go there first so you could show off your hard work, Fanny loves the South Wing, and I'm in charge of the North Wing?" Alex frowned, eyes somehow doubling in size as she spouted.

"Yes, that's true Alex, but I have to give a good showing of all the rooms, besides Tit and Fanny aren't here to show off their creations, so it falls to me, just like I'm going to show off your hard work. Now the North Wing is our newest wing, so it comes with only the basics plus a Jacuzzi and Mini-fridge, but don't worry because-"

"I call dibs!" Kurumu and Ty Lee both shouted, racing past him into the room, jumping onto the single bed. "Roomies!" The girls shouted, giggling like schoolgirls already.

"No, no, there will be no dibs. As I was saying earlier, every night, one of you will stay upstairs with the Master in the Loft, while all the other girls stay down here, when the next girl goes up, the previous girl will replace her, rotating rooms and roommates, got it memorized? No, don't worry, you'll see it in action soon enough. So..."

*Beep Boop

"Oh, sounds like the Boss is done with whatever they were doing, should we wait for Tit and Fanny?" Alex asked, suddenly serious, although her grin hadn't been lost yet.

"No, they have their jobs, and we have ours, let's get back to the Boss and then we can get this show on the road." Elly said, a soft grin on his face.
