AN: Yep, you're reading this right. A Twilight x Touhou cross. One that does not exclusively feature one-sided curbstomps.

BWAHAHAHAHAHA, read it and weep!

No, just kidding though. Anyway, the Twilight saga is truly an utter piece of garbage, but in my opinion that's only because the main characters suck horribly.

As a person who's read through the whole saga, including the new books such as Midnight Sun (due to my nature as a bibliophile, I cannot wholey reject Twilight as literature, thus I proceeded to read all of it in an effort to understand the writer and the series as a whole) I can tell you that I'd much rather see the full story of Jasper and Alice, who are much more interesting than Edward and Bella or perhaps War between the Volturi, Romanians and Egyptians.

Hell, I'd reader a story, or hell, fanfiction about a Child of the Moon (Twilight speak for werewolf, as in, real ones that stand on their hind legs and all that.) than any story focusing on Edward x Bella

As for the Twilight universe in itself, well, the series actually has some pretty interesting idea's, especially the Quillete shape-shifters, so barring the sparkle-fairies, who I refuse to acknowledge as real vampire, now more than ever since I am crossing it with Touhou, who has Remilia and Flandre (Take THAT you bastards!)

Anyway, it may or may not interwine with Rosario's and Phantasms.

Toodles, make sure you don't forget to review!

"You are sure then?"

Gathered around a round table in the gardens of Eientei were its owners, Kaguya Houraisan and Eirin Yagokoro. Across them was the most surprising pair you could see in their presence, one Yukari Yakumo and Fujiwara no Mouku, considering the bad blood between them.

"Yes, it has been on my thoughts for some time now, and not recently had I come to this conclusion." said Kaguya, "Gensokyo is my home; it always will be, but . . ."

"You want to see more," for Yukari, it was not a question, but a statement of fact.

The Eternal Princess of the Moon smiled slightly, "Not more, Yukari, all. I am eternal, and so long as you have it your way, so too, shall Gensokyo be, but the world outside constantly changes. I will never forget about this land, and I there will come a time when it will once more be my home, but I want to see the world outside of it, the ever changing world, that can interest or bore me at destinies whim."

Mouku set down the teacup she had been sipping on to give sneer at her immortal enemy, "Che, always with the fluffy language Kaguya. Just get to the point, you're bored here in Paradise and you want a change of scenery."

Kaguya gave Mouku her own glare in response before smoothing out her features and calming herself, "It is not quite like that, my nemesis. Gensokyo is fit to be my home, because it is as unchanging as I, and as such I love it as any would love their home, but I have to see what lies beyond its borders. The world outside has changed so much, for all my immortality, I have only seen a small germ of what the world offers, and that was from a time long past. Just for once, I want to make use of my immortality and see the world in all its glory, the world that surprised even my Lunarian brethren with their unrelenting advance to the future "

Mouku still did not really understand and her facial expression showed it. Yukari, however, seemed to have reached an understanding with the Lunar Princess. As for Kaguya's best-friend, attendant and once teacher, Eirin, the woman was visibly trying to keep her face impassive.

"I see, and from the way the Brain here is reacting, I assume you wish to go alone?" at Yukari's query, Eirin closed her eyes tightly and her lips mashed into a straight line. Eirin gave a slow and stiff shake of her head.

"No? Still it's seems I am not completely off the mark, so I assume you are not going with her, but . . . someone else . . . is?"

Yukari's eyes widened in surprise as she reached a conclusion. Kaguya recognizing the realization in her eyes and smiled blithely, confirming her suspicion. The both of them stared at the only other woman present, Mouku, who, upon realizing to whom they were reffering to, began glaring at Kaguya.

"Oh no, most definitely no, I am not one of your servants, Kaguya-hime, give me one good reason why I should follow you out of here?"

"Listen, Mouku, I know you dislike me greatly," said Kaguya, adopting a melanchonic expression, "so I want you to take this trip as my apology, I would like to give you more than a life centered around your hate of me."

Mouku snorted in disdain and disbelief, "Hmph, very arrogant aren't you? What makes you think that travelling the world with you of all people serves as a proper apology, moreover, what gave you the idea that my life centers solely around you."

"Perhaps it does, perhaps it does not, but I want you to know that my apology is sincere, you hate me for what I did to your father. Even after a thousand years you still detest me, but seeing as neither of us can truly end the other, we might as well get along, right?"

It was a strange thing for Mouku, who knew that to keep a grudge for that reason was childish, stupid even, but for some reason every time she saw the Moon Princess, the sudden surge to just end her arose, unforced and unrelenting.

Eirin of course had picked up on her confusion long ago, but refused to give her thoughts on the matter, as it was not her place to discuss, but her friend would leave with or without Mouku, but doing so without her would sadden her deeply.

This would be the last time she would see her beloved friend in a long, long time, so she might as well do her one last favor.

"Ms. Mouku, perhaps you are looking at your rage wrongly," she began, "in fact, I believe whatever rage you feel has nothing to do with your father at all."

Mouku shot her a venomous glare, but allowed Eirin to continue, "Your anger in fact, stems from your immortality, you are bitter about the fact that all things will come and go, whereas only you will remain. Finding Kaguya simply gave you an outlet, as she is eternal as you are. Coming to Gensokyo has calmed you down somewhat, I will admit, but even then, you do not truly have anyone who you could call your companion. Even the school teacher will pass on eventually."

"Don't you dare talk as if you know me, you damn shrew, you-!" began Mouku, standing from her chair. Her was anger palable and made more apparent by the small embers of flame coming to life around her.

"You deny it then?" said Eirin, cutting her off, "Think carefully, Fujiwara no Mouku, think and then tell me what I say is not true."

Mouku glared at Eirin long and hard, before relenting, "Okay, yeah, maybe what you said is true, but what does this have to do with Kaguya's little outing?"

Kaguya herself answered that, "I had wished to make life more fun for you, for us. I wanted to apologize by letting you experience change with me, if what Eirin said was true, then all the more reason for me to want you to come with me."

At the of Kaguya's speech, her voice had taken an almost pleading tone, her dark eyes gazing straight into Mouku's reddish-brown. Mouku shifted uncomfortably as Kaguya continued staring. Her puppy eyes were a new and uncomfortable weapon on her rival, especially since it was so out of character for the Princess to pout like that.

"Okay, okay, I get it, but who's gonna run my Yakitori stand in the meantime?" At her concession, Kaguya's face lit up with happiness, "Don't get me wrong Kaguya, this is just me giving you a chance. The moment I think it's not worth my time, I'm heading back to Gensokyo, understood?"

If Kaguya was disheartened by her words, she certainly did not show it, "Yes, yes, I understand perfectly. As for your Yakitori stand, I will have Reisen deal with it."

"Isn't your rabbit busy peddling medicine to the humans in the Village?"

"Really? Hm, I hadn't noticed, Eirin, what do suggest we do?"

Eirin sighed at her friends tendency to forget about her pets, even as she marveled at how quickly the situation had defused itself, "I could send some of the other rabbits, Kaguya, Reisen is are most disciplined rabbit certainly, but any of the others should suffice just to maintain Ms. Mouku's, Yakitori stand."

Mouku nodded in agreement to her proposal, "I'm fine with that."

"So I take it the matter has been settled then?" piqued Yukari, Kaguya replied with a nod of her head, "What exactly do you plan to do however? I'm confident your not to well versed with outside world currency, and where do plan on living?"

"Actually, Eirin was able to tutor me a bit about the Outside using information she had acquired from her students on the Moon, as for where I plan to live, well, I'll think about it when the time comes. I will probably rent a room in an inn someplace."

"The great Kaguya, living in an inn, what is the world coming to," said Mouku with a snort. Kaguya stuck her tongue out in response.

"So, when do you plan on going?" said Yukari.

"Two days from now. Eirin needs to prepare some things for me. Also, in case I haven't mentioned it, I would like us to exit in a specific area."

"And where would that be?"

Eirin had taken a map that was in the hands of a rabbit that had been standing nearby. As soon as she did so, the rabbit sighed in relief as her job here was finished and went to play with her fellow rabbits.

"Right here," said Eirin. As Mouku looked at the map, she could make neither heads nor tales of it, nor could she even understand the language it was written in. She concluded the map must be foreign.

"So far away from Japan . . . are you sure of this?"

"Of course, what better way to start my travels than in a place so backwards from Japan!" said Kaguya, as if it were the most obvious thing in the world.

Eirin grumbled, "I hope you realize I am still against this Kaguya. America is a backwards, uncultured, violent, stupid, boorish . . ."

"Oh shush you, they make some of the best hamburgers in the world, they aren't all that bad~!" said Yukari as Eirin cited one insult after another.

"Eirin, honestly, you are extremely narrow minded. I think you might want to start lightening up a little." said Kaguya.

Seeing Eirin's annoyed rambling at Yukari, who smiled back as she proceeded to give more reasons on why she disliked the nation, Mouku looked at Kaguya one brow raised up in question, "Wow, she's really got something against these 'Americans' huh? What gives?"

"Oh it is nothing really; Eirin is just a tad racist."

"Huh, for some reason I'm not surprised."

Kaguya looked back on her conversation with the others three days ago and smiled. It was wonderful that she had been able to convince both Yukari and Mouku to go along with her selfishness. As she was mulling over her memories, her companion for her journey outside the Hakurei Barrier arrived.

It was early in the morning, the sun just beginning to rise above the Hakurei Shrine. They needed to get there early to be able to prepare for themselves inconspicuously after all

Mouku, lifting a travelling bag over her shoulders, called her out of her thoughts, "Oi, spoiled princess when do we - oh."

The Immortal halted her speech abruptly as she caught sight of her companion. Kaguya was no longer wearing her usual garments, instead the long skirt she usually wore was replace by a pair of long black jeans, and her pink kimono was replaced by a pink jacket, with a white T-shirt with rabbit designs underneath.

"Oh, there you are Mouku, I have something for you," she said, waving for the rabbit, Reisen, Mouku recalled, attending to her to come forth.

The rabbit held in her hands a small box. Taking it from her, Mouku found that the inside contained a set of clothes.

"What's this?'

"New clothes. You cannot simply expect to wear that in the modern era, can you?" she said, shooting a look at Mouku's clothes.

"Hey, my clothes are just fine! Besides, are you forgetting that my clothes need anti-fire charms to make sure they don't get accidentally burnt?"

"Of course, that is why all your new clothes have similar charms stitched on to them."

"Wait, what do you mean all my new clothes?"

Kaguya grinned playfully at Mouku's suspicious look, before answering, "Why, I simply took the trouble to get both of us a sets of new clothes, after all, we can't expect to wear the same things everyday. Don't worry though, I'm sure you'll find them to your liking."

"I have a bad feeling about that . . ." muttered Mouku.

At that moment, Eirin, Yukari and Hakurei Reimu, the current Hakurei Shrine Maiden entered the area. Eirin's had a neutral expression, Yukari was donning her usual smile, while Reimu was looking visibly disgruntled.

"Alright, it's really too early in the morning for this. You two had better be grateful I'm doing this at all" said Reimu, with a sharp glare to everyone present. The Shrine Maiden was still in her Yukata, and had a bad case of bed hair, it was obvious that she had just recently awoken.

Kaguya bowed slightly, "Of course Reimu, I shall miss you by the way. It has been a pleasure being your acquaintance."

"Yeah, yeah, you're welcome." said Reimu offhandedly, although her mood seemed to lighten somewhat. "Just gather your things together and we can get this over with."

Mouku picked up her things, gathering them all before looking at Kaguya, "Where's your stuff. Don't tell me you didn't pack anything."

"Of course not. I have all my things right here." Kaguya responded, presenting a small chrome-colored box. "This little piece of technology here can hold quite a large bit of luggage, I last used it when I escaped from the moon you know?"

Mouku whistled, "Well that's a pretty handy little thing."

As soon as they were settled, Reimu walked in front of the two, Yukari taking a place beside her. "Alright, in a moment I'll be opening the barrier to the outside, while Yukari takes you to wherever you told her to bring you, while we are doing this, I need you to close your eyes, at all. At least until your safely on the other side. I repeat, do NOT open your eyes for a second as you pass through the border, got it?"

"Of course."

"Yeah I got it, although I gotta ask, why?"

Reimu sighed as if she was hoping no-one would ask, "You won't be able to comprehend the different borders being opened here, even more-so once your actually passing through it. It won't kill you, duh, but I doubt you want to start your trip slowly recovering your sanity after your mind gets torn to shreds."

"Uh, yeah, thanks for the heads up."

"Meh. Anyway, lets get this done already so I can go back to sleep."

With that, the ritual had begun. Kaguya and Mouku closed their eyes as Reimu lifted her gohei above her, muttering prayers under her breath at an incomprehensible speed. A square shaped light glowed beneath the two, and was soon joine by another and another and another, until the area beneath Kaguya and Mouku resembled a glowing star. The light from the seal shot high above them before hitting an invisible barrier.

Reimu still kept up her prayers as Yukari snapped her fingers, causing a small gap to appear right were the light had stopped. Slowly, the seal underneath them began floating, lifting Kaguya and Mouku with it, like a glowing, translucent elevator.

"See you soon Eirin, Reimu, Yukari, Reisen!" said Kaguya, smiling although her eyes were still shut. Mouku said nothing as they neared the gap, her face neutral. "See you again Gensokyo!"

Eirin shouted back, "Make sure you keep out of trouble, okay, Kaguya?"

"Sure!"

Soon the duo had gone in, and the gap closed and disappeared as the light from the seal slowly faded away. Reimu sighed and put down her gohei.

She turned to Eirin, "Well, my job is done here, I'm going to have breakfast."

"What happened to taking a nap?" questioned Yukari.

"After breakfast," replied Reimu simply.

As Reimu walked back to her shrine, Eirin continued to stare at the spot Kaguya had disappeared from. Sighing, the Brain of the Moon shook her head and began walking down the steps of the shrine, Reisen following after her, her mind clouded with thoughts.

Yukari looked on as Eirin walked out of view. Pulling a fan out from one of her gaps, Yukari began giggling uncontrollably.

"O-oh dear, I can't wait to see the look on her face when I tell her exactly what kind of creatures reside in Kaguya's new home. Hehe-a-ha-HAHAHAHA! O-oh my, 'keep out of trouble' she said, Ahahahaha!" Yukari chortled as she descended into another bout of giggling.
