Lanie

Welcoming Leon and Louie is a girl with a pretty long white hair tied in two high ponytails with cute gold ribbons. She has a gentle face and femine shape eyes that glowed a dangerous glint. Leon unconsciously went to his guard but Louie went in front and put him at his back. She has a short shorts being covered with a see through glowing skirt that comes till the edge of her toes. Like what Louie is wearing, the thread and lining of her dress were glowing and it makes her terrifying. She has a golden leather choker with a red teardrop jewel at the middle. She just stare at the two with folded arms and unconsciously both swallowed their saliva and seems like ready for a good scolding. 

"It took us quite a long time since our guest is hungry. I would like to suggest that he must be well fed first before he meets the master as it might took quite a while before they could have a decent meal when they started." Leon couldn't help but having a feeling that is something similar when he was about to battle someone tricky and will be quite of a hassle to handle with. He almost went to a fighting stance when the lady with the same age range with Louie tap her high heels to the ground in a crisp and sharp way. 

"Louie." It's not even a whole sentence but just calling his name, Louie immediately went to his feet with his head bowed down. Leon was dumbfounded and torn whether he will follow what Louie is doing or remain as transparent like air, there but unnoticeable. Yet the girl turned sharply towards him and Leon felt his muscles tightened. Her eyes squinted and unfolded her arms before she does a graceful curtsy that wowed Leon and made Louie proud. Her moves were as fluid as water and her silk threads that bounces in every movement. 

"Welcome to the humble abode of Sir Eucrid. This greeting might be late but I apologized for we have some matters to attend to in the duration of your stay. I am called Lanie and if you needed some tendings in your room or someone to show you the way, I will be glad to assist. I presumed Louie had already brief you of the history of the family and thus I wouldn't make your time with me long. I apologized for abruptly calling you when you are about to fill your stomach. I will be waiting at the theater room and Louie, make sure to tend his needs from top to bottom in an agile splendid manner. Are we clear about this?" There is emphasis in her words that made Leon rolled his eyes. He thought that his reaction will be unnoticed but he almost cough when he saw Lanie's eyes were onto him and was waiting for his explanation but Louie saved his arrogant ass. 

"I will make sure that he will be there as fast as lightning. Let's go there brother---eek! I mean sir! Let's go and fill your stomach first! Bye sister!" Louie grabbed Leon's arm that made the man dumbfounded. He is strong enough to drag him around. Louie ran like his life depends on his two agile foot and Leon hit his hand on his arm that brought them two to break contact. 

"Why are you looking at me like I was a coward dog that lost its tail towards the alpha?" Leon sniggered and fixes his sleeves while whispering..."Aren't you?", which Louie heard very clear. 

His nostrils grew and it almost made Leon burst out laughing but what stopped him was the sweat rolling down his fine face. There is a chill in his body before Louie took a deep breath and collapses on the floor. Leon went beside him and Louie rested his forehead on his leg.

"She's really scary. I never get to be used to her presence. I'm sorry I dragged you in this. I apologize." Leon could hear a wounded child and automatically his hand pet his head. Leon remembered the past...how his brother used to do this.

"It's alright beside I am still starving so let's go and fix me something to eat. Let's get going before we both taste her wrath." Upon hearing Leon's last word, Louie stand faster than lightning. He pulled Leon's sleeves again before he remembered how rude it was and bowed to apologize and turn his back to lead the way. Leon nodded his head and followed. The smile in his lips faded when he saw the familiar passageway where he felt the tremendous bloodlust for someone physically not existing. Louie might have noticed the faint steps that paused. He cleared his throat before explaining which Leon can't hear a thing.

"There is only one kitchen in this household and even I have to respect your wants but if you are hungry then I must apologize, please bear with her till your stomach's satisfied." That made Leon silence and just went on pretending he is a deaf not hearing a single noise.

"Thank you for your patience but you could have eaten more than that. I must warn you, when the master watches it will took a long time before he put the series in pause or before he decides to stop watching..." Leon put his finger in front of Louie and made him stop talking before smiling like he knows it more than he does. 

"Just lead me to where the theater room is and we'll talk about the reaction time later. Besides your sister will scold you if we idle like this----" Louie without any warning, pulled Leon faster than he could end his sentence. 

The house is huge but you wouldn't notice it because of the furniture and many collection of various things that cannot be classified as ancient but peculiar as someone like Eucrid. There are life size anime characters that Leon is seeing for the first time and there are tons of those that is from his era and Leon wanted to kneel down and pay respect but that would look crazy in the eyes of Louie and Lanie. But he didn't know, the three had already grew immunity after seeing Eucrid doing such almost everyday.

After turning and going to stairs and another sharp turn, Louie finally halted and Leon heaved a sigh of relief. 

"Please prepare yourself before I announce your arrival."

"But there is no need to do such thing---

"I insis----

Both jumped to their place when the door opened and the last person they wanted to see staring down to their soul judging every part of it. 

Lanie has a stare saying, 'how hard it is to eat to take you this long to get here' but Eucrid's squeal made all of their attention get caught. 

"FINALLY! YOU ARE HERE! COME LEON! LET'S GO! LET'S WATCH!"

"Wow..." The only word Leon could spout before his eyes roamed around the theatre room and see the clear stack of flash drives, CD copies and sets of nendoroids lined up in many clear cases that could reach the ceiling and even before, Leon haven't seen someone as crazy as this. Like he is living only for anime and all 2D character and he doesn't dislike it even a bit! 

Lanie went beside Eucrid which is still in the coccoon glowing case. Eucrid remove his glasses and Lanie folded it for him with a quaint smile that is so good to see if you doesn't know how terrifying she is. 

"Come child! I had been waiting for you!" Eucrid pointed at the reclined sofa chair beside his pod and Leon immediately jog closer to it. This was what he picture himself in during the days he wanted to rent a pc in a cafe but couldn't afford it. 

"Come lay down now boy! Let's watch this! I know you will like this!" Leon gulped the building saliva in his throat and decided to answer the wish of the good old man that is from the start, only kindness ever shown to him. As soon as he lay down on the pod, he felt the nice cushion and he immediately want to fell asleep but Eucrid laugh upon watching his reaction and that made a tinge of pink showed in his face. 

"I remember the days were this," pointing at the pod,"was just a dream boy. I never wanted that I would ever get to see and feel it now but yes! This is a dream come true! This will give us true satisfaction when we watch little devil with red hair and big plots. Hehehe! Are you ready?! Let's go! Let's get going! Lanie and Louie, you can rest for now. This anime is not appropriate for you guys to see. I'll call when I needed something!" His high pitch tone is similar to that annoying AI and Leon watches Lanie making a scary face but Eucrid is immune of it. 

That made Leon makes mental imprinting that he will not let Lanie be mad or he couldn't handle the aftermat of it.
