   INSIDE a labyrinthine library exist the souls of the many many writers. These writers, now called "Alchemists," must delve into the stories of authors and do whatever is necessary to carry them out to their proper conclusions.

Taints are creatures who can be of any form that change the plot within these stories, making them be deleted from the world.

One obscure author, named Eve, last name not given, was rarely called to delve in a book to fight against these taints. She would just hang around in the few secret places that the library could offer. She only wondered why she was even in there. She usually stood beside the director, who was a talking cat, and told the delving authors their next objective.

"Heard this was some sort of fan fiction." The blue-haired writer named Xingqiu nudged someone.

An artist by the name of Albedo exclusively part of the team lifted his chin, "Either way, all literary works can not be destroyed. Genre and Type matters doesn't matter, the author has put their time for it so letting it be deleted is not an option."

"Exactly." The cat, who was called a director, pointed, "Sadly, only one can enter the book for some odd reason."

"Aww, we're not allowed to go?!" Bennett, who was an unknown writer, jumped up and down with no calming down.

Accidentally, almost in a quick second, the clumsy little Bennett fell on the floor. His back fell to where Eve was standing, and coincidentally sent her there instead.

"Wait, Av-" The Acting Director suddenly exclaimed, not even able to finish her name. The cat's face fell down, "I forgot to tell you something different about that book.."

. ___ .

       Eve fell on the floor, with no weapon to protect herself. She neither knew the plot nor the proper ending for this book titled "24 Minutes." It was dark and dimly-lit, so seeing wherever she were wasn't too clear for her to see.

"I'm in a theater?" She questioned, her eyes adjusting to the room. There were a huge set of chairs, bigger and a lot more in numbers than a usual cinema in their time would. Almost as if someone would hold a global movie screening.

"Welcome!" A foreign voice called, there was a woman. Her stature was short as Hinata's, had blonde curly hair but was wearing something dark. It almost looked like she was blending in with the surroundings.

Eve asked, "Who might you be?"

"I'm the main theater attendant. The name's Dipper if you will!" She bowed.

"Uh-huh.."

"Well that's quite unexpected." Dipp interjected, raising her hand a little, "I assumed you'd know this story and change the plot right away."

"You know what I'm planning to do?" Eve backed a bit, frightened.

"That is how I was written, I was written to guide and know most of it all." She claimed, "Oh! Oh! Would you perhaps want to act as a theater attendant with me?!"
