Chapter 1: Bite the bullet
Mokena cheerfully bounced up and down the frail autumn trees. The new dimension they landed in was indeed an odd one. Upon arriving no one held the sense of conscious.
The plump ball gave no mind to her comatose induced friends. She found much more interest in chasing smaller animals and tasting the many fruits and berries that littered the predominant trees and shrubs.
Her joyful reign came to a shallow end as the sun began to dissipate within the boundless semiprecious jewels in the fountain of bleak ebony.
The sunset set the fluff ball back to her drowsed companions, not one coming within reach of speech. Sighing the milky pug hopped over to her beloved mage.
His current state upset the small animal seeing as how he was completely out. She gave no mind to the fact that her Japanese friend was slung over the blonde. They landed in a rather uncomfortable position. Their last 'mission' was ended in a mob for they had gathered one of Sakura's recollection feathers. To their surprise the owner of this was a maniacal prince who had embodied the small plume in a brilliant necklace, it was not released when they left, but simple draped around the princess neck. They were told too release the feather they would have to be self- sacrificial to remove it from the prince's curse.
Leaving the previous world was somewhat different than their other trips. They had no clue as to what self-sacrifice was to be made or what world they would be lead into next, but they did know that they were not to give up.
Shoran rolled to his side the first to recollect from their trip. He first reaction was for Sakura. Feeling his side for her finding that she was not there. The brunette was fully at attention devouring the land before him in search of his treasure.
His eyes softened, she was safe. Gracefully resting on a pile of auburn leaves. The boy gave a soft smile, he really truly loved Sakura and he would do anything and everything to make her whole again.
Shifting his weight to his wobbly legs he ventured toward his delicate flower, brushing tawny strands from her comely features. He was filled with some many emotions. Love yet sadness. She would never remember him, nor would she ever give him the same smile that he held so dear. He had made a sacrifice and now he was faced with another.
What sacrifice would he make next to bring his beloved back to her formal self? Shoran sighed lying down in the leaves next to her. Courage was what he had and he was determined.
" Shoran, Shoran!" the brunette gaze switched to the pouncing fuzz ball, then to the direction of insisting paw.
" Help, Help, Fye, Shoran. He looks squished! Hurry, Hurry!" The russet-haired boy, smiled again, standing he trudged through the milestone of colorful verdure.
He lightly tapped the large Japanese man's back, he didn't particularly want to bother Kurogane, for he somewhat intimidated the smaller brunette.
" No, No, Sho-chan, you have to move him! Hurry, Hurry!" Mokena encouraged her friend, trying to help the pinned mage.
To both of their surprise it was Fye who stirred first. Bright ice blue orbs met with a large chest. Blinking the blonde shook flaxen tendrils from his face, moving his crumpled exterior against the tanned beast from above.
A small giggled provoked his sensibility, as two vermilion eyes met lashes of joy and a pretty simile.
Kurogane frowned, " What was the stupid mage smiling about now…wait why his he under me?" The raven-haired man sat up into a crouch giving him a full overview of what was happening.
" Stupid Kuro-Kuro! " Turing towards the meek voice, he eyed a pouting Mokena.
" What are you blabbing about now you freaking meat bun!" His comment was followed by a throaty growl.
The blonde's chortle did not go unnoticed for long; soon he was nose to nose with a fuming Kurogane.
Delicate fingers were placed over his bursting mouth; the blonde gave a small whimper to the weight change above. He honestly tried to muffle his laughter but seeing as how his habit of laughter only increased when he was sad, uncomfortable, embarrassed, or happy it was somewhat difficult to contain his self, feeling two of the mentioned emotions.
Kurogane sat back against a hollow log, sending heated looks to the bursting blonde.
Mokena hoped onto Fye's lap, slightly purring at the petting motion from the mage's hand.
" It's okay, Mokena. Kuro-poo didn't mean anything by it. We just landed that way when we fell from the portal." His tone was as usual soft now calmed his laughter.
Kurogane rolled his eyes. " Yeah, like I intended for any of that to happen." His thoughts hung like a swollen haze." Stupid mage, why did he have to-" The samurai's thoughts came to an immediate halt, his eyes found there way on to the blonde's rear.
Fye had bent over to pick up the sulking Mokena after she had fallen off his lap when he stood. He gave a pretty smile holding the pug in the air, somewhat cooing at her cuteness.
Shoran smiled at the mage, turning his gaze to Sakura who was still in a light slumber. His attention was defeated when his princess curled into a small ball. Taking off his coat he draped it over the sleeping girl. Moving from her shivering position she rested easily, feeling the warmth surrounding her.
Mokena wiggled in the mage's grasp until she was finally let down, she motioned for the blonde to come to her level, whispering something in his ear. A perfect shade of pink had formed its way onto the blonde's perfect features. He turned his attention from Mokena and focused it on the Japanese behind him.
His friend's gaze had been pried from his own frame and was now in the distant form of the bondless trees.
Fye mentally chuckled. Of course he knew he wasn't being eyed, it was Mokena's active imagination or so he told himself.
Previous measures had ensued before but he decided to ignore them, he most often found the dark-haired man's gaze on himself, which made his cheeks warm in a way they never had before.
He loved to tease Kurogane, but in a way he was only trying to gain attention from the larger man.
Sighing he turned around facing his back to the nonchalant man. He felt two things at this moment. Force him or guide him? He had no other choice at the moment.
Bending over once again, he pretended to drop something forcing the Japanese's attention to his bent posture. Fye smiled for he had just barely saw it, but he was sure the tanned man gave him at least a brief glance. A new feeling emerged behind the blonde's shining eyes as a welcome giggle was expected from his turned lips. He had found a new reason to tease Kurogane. Only this was a private reason, only a joke he could enjoy.
Whistling a small tune he gradually made his way past, Shoran and Sakura and took his rightful place next to Kurogane. He casually leaned against him bumping shoulders and knees. Kuro glanced at the blonde's peculiar behavior. Raising an eyebrow he began to speak, stopping, he found it better not to say anything at all. For every time he opened his mouth only something he could be teased about followed.
A ponder struck the petite brunette, he sometimes found the mage's actions somewhat curious. Shoran sighed lying back down next to Sakura.
Stringing together small possibilities, Fye leaned his head in the Japanese's lap, a light smile printed on his features.
Curiously, Kurogane's attention switched to the lying blonde. He knew something was about to ensue but the large Japanese couldn't place his finger on it.
