Reina: I'm back again!

Leo: Ugh...

Reina: Shut it Leo.

Leo: ....

Reina: Anyway, as promised, here's the next chapter.

You were in your room, patiently waiting for the others to help you get the stuff to see if the Nohrians was under a potion's influence.

It was a shock to see the others agree to Niles' plan, as you expected Odin or Cora disagree to it. If anything, you were shocked that Cora suggested getting the Nohrian family's salvia! Before you could protest, everyone left, forcing you to go to your room and make the potion. It was nearly done now, so all you had to do was wait.

After what seemed like forever, Cora snuck in, carrying a Q-Tip.

"I got Elise's salvia."

"How'd you manage that?" You ask.

"I had Cori and Kaze distract Arthur and Effie."

"Ah."

She hands you the Q-Tip, and you hold it away from your face as you pour a bit of the red potion on it. You wait a second, and the Q-Tip suddenly turns pink, purple, blue, and green.

"Is that supposed to happen?" Cora asks as you frantically toss the Q-Tip on your desk and dash around your room, pulling books out and throwing them on the floor.

"No..." You replied. "I don't know what this means, and it's freaking me out." You hold up the nearest book and tear through it, hoping to find an explanation for what has happened.

Cora blinks. "Um.... Do you want me to help?"

"That would be helpful," you mutter as you skim through another book.

Cora nods and starts to help, grabbing the nearest book and scanning it for explanations.

After scanning through twelve books, Laslow, Selena, and Odin walked in with their samples (you had no idea how Odin roped them into this, but you decided not to press it). Cora stopped reading long enough to tell the retainers what to do with the potion, but when their samples had the same colors and pattern as the first sample, you went into a further frenzy.

"This is impossible!" You yell. You run your hands through your hair, ready to tear it out. Cora saw this and gently put her arms around you.

"Hey, (Y/N)," she says gently. "Calm down. We'll find out what happened to the Nohrian royal family. Just take a deep breath."

"Yeah," Laslow added as he winks at you. "It'd be a shame to see a sweet lady like you flip out like that."

Selena smacked him upside the head. "Don't go and hit on (Y/N) when she's upset!"

"I was trying to cheer her up," he protested. You tried not to giggle at how he trembled at Selena's glare, but it was too hard. Thankfully, he didn't hear that.

Azura walked in with Kaze and Cori. "Have you figured out what happened!" She asks softly.

You shake your head sadly. "Not yet."

She sighs. "It's weird.... I was walking over here, and I saw Saizo flipping out."

"Apparently, the Hoshidan royal family won't wake up."

"Gah!" You scream. "One catastrophe at a time please!"

Cora sighs. "Maybe you should rest, (Y/N). You're going nuts, and some rest would be helpful for you."

"I have found the legendary description for our predicament!" Odin declared out of the blue.

You bolt passed everyone, nearly knocking Laslow down as you grabbed the book from Odin's hands and eagerly scan it. Cora hissed and muttered, "I was trying to get (Y/N) to sleep.... Now she probably won't go to bed."

"WHAT THE F***!" You scream.

Everyone turned to you. "What's wrong?"

"That b****..." You curse. You hold up the book so that Azura and Cora can read it. "Pink represents love potion, blue represents mist, purple means vampire, and green means to ward other rivals away!"

Cori sighed. "(Y/N), you're not making any sense now."

"This is a multi-potion," you explain carefully. You point to the pink section. "Part of the potion is a love potion to make people fall for you." You then point to the blue section in the picture. "The blue potion is the Mist potion, a potion that allows for any potion mixed with it to become a mist that cannot be seen." You then move to the purple section. "The DracuPotion is a potion that is used to affect only vampires, as vampires can be immune to certain potions, but the DracuPotion enhances any potion. And green..." You circle the green section. "This particular shade of dark green is the Anti-Rival potion. If you use this, people of your same gender tend to stay away from you."

"Wow," Cori and Laslow mutter.

Selena pursued her lips. "That is a hella specific description."

"Yeah..... Looks like other people have used this, but it's not very common..."

"Well, Nohr used to be full of vampires," Azura muttered. "It wouldn't surprise me if someone has used this before Garon's time."

"Yeah..." You mutter. "But making a multi-potion like this is risky and takes years of practice.... I don't know if Leora knows how to make potions, but clearly she has been planning to use this for a while."

Everyone nods. Before they could do anything, you turn to Kaze.

"This might be a bit much to ask, but I need some of Leora's salvia. And Ryoma's. And Hinoka's. And Takumi's. And Sakura's."

Kaze sighed. Cora walks up to you and guides you to your bed. "(Y/N).... I know you want to know what happened, but you need to sleep."

"But Leora-"

"Can wait tomorrow." She hands you a cup, and in the corner of your eye you see everyone leave.

"Drink this," Cora said.

You drink it and suddenly you feel very sleepy.

"Go to sleep..." Cora says gently before you drift off into a soothing dream.

Reina: So at least we know how Leora accomplished her tasks....

Leo: *scowls*

Reina: Anyway... Technically, this is where Laslow's path branches off if people decide to pursue him.

Takumi: Write my path first!

Reina: I will! Just let me write more of Leo's.

Takumi: Okay.

Leo: 10 votes for more!

Reina: And then I'll show the drawing!

Leo: Oh lord....

Takumi: Shoot....
