> "I wish she had kept in touch too, ze," Marisa laments. You continue on down the hall, into the ballroom, and towards the greenhouse. Marisa reaches the door before you and peeks inside.
> "Do you really think she knows?" Marisa asks.

>Enter the greenhaus.

>Enter the greenhaus.

> "Yeah, you're right about that," Marisa says as the two of you enter the greenhouse. At least Yuuka hasn't messed around with the plants again: the tunnel leading to Yuuka is still there. Marisa ducks her head and walks into it.

>Head though the tunnel.

> You and Marisa go through the tunnel in silence. After a few minutes, you emerge once again in the clearing. Yuuka is where you last remember her, curled up and asleep in the middle of a sunflower cluster. The tall flowers have pointed their heads at her, but when you and Marisa enter the scene, they turn as if to look at you. Marisa pushes you behind her.
> "Watch out, those things don't look like good news, ze," she says.

>Call out: "Hey! Yuuka! You're going to miss out on helping Alice in her big moment!"

> Marisa's just being dramatic.
> You shout at Yuuka in an attempt to wake her up, but she doesn't budge.

>Sigh. Then look for a clod of loose dirt without rocks or the like and toss it at her. Try to hit her in the butt or torso with it, somewhere where it isn't going to do any harm.

> You kneel down and search the grass for something to throw at her. You come up with a chunk of dirt with some grass on it, and throw it at Yuuka. Marisa stifles her laughter as it hits Yuuka perfectly. Yuuka stirs, rolls over, and opens her eyes. She looks pissed.

>"Sorry about that. Alice is working on a fairly big project and is going to want your help."

> Yuuka pushes herself of the ground and waves the sunflowers out of the way. Marisa continues giggling as she walks over, carrying her parasol over her shoulder and running a hand through her messy hair. Since you mentioned Alice, she probably won't attack, but she clearly doesn't take well to being woken up.

>Glance toward Marisa. "What do you think?"

> Marisa shrugs. "Sounds legit, but how do we know she's not lying, ze?"
> "I'm not entirely sure myself," Yuuka says with a yawn. "Now which one of you threw that dirt?"

>Do be ready to move if she tries something. We didn't manage to dodge through all the things we have by being a scrub.

> Yuuka points her parasol at you, and you move out of the way almost on reflex. She curls her lip and rests the parasol on her shoulder instead.
> "Fair enough," she says.

>"Just consider it an excuse to have Alice dust you off."

> Yuuka squints at you, but she's also grinning: it's hard to tell just what she's thinking right now. Marisa guffaws loudly, and Yuuka quiets her by slapping a hand over her mouth.
> "Well why don't you show me what you wanted my help with, since that's what you woke me up for?" Yuuka says.

Just about everyone who's everyone has gathered to assist with effort in some way or another. You ought to be pleased to know that Alice is one of the central architects behind it, and I'm sure she's going to want your support."

> You, Marisa, and Yuuka walk out through the tunnel. As you make your way through the mansion and towards the outside, you explain the plan.
> "Hmmm..." Yuuka yawns again as you near the front doors. "Who's all involved?"
> "'Sides Alice? Nitori and some others from the mountain, some guys from the Underground, Patchy, Remilia, Sakuya, the Yakumos..." Marisa starts listing people.
> "Oh. I see," says Yuuka.
